30 years have passed since the end of the dojo war in the Valley, and the Miyagi-Fang dojo commanded by Daniel Larusso and Johnny Lawrence surpassed Terry Silver's Cobra Kai, after the defeat, Silver left the Valley and never came back and the Cobra Kai dojo was also never seen again, after that, the students of the dojos went on to live their normal lives, without worrying about the karate war and in general they all stopped training after that... well, everyone except Samantha Larusso, Daniel's daughter continued her training in both Miyagi-Do and Eagle-Fang until she mastered both styles, (she even went to Okinawa to train with Chozen), not only that, but she had married Miguel Diaz, who now working as a doctor, while Samantha took over her family's business, despite living a great life alongside Miguel and their friends, Samantha felt like there was something missing in her life, but she couldn't explain what it was, one day Samantha was coming home from work, but When she arrived on a seemingly empty street, she witnessed a scene that changed her life forever.

The scene was of six girls hitting another girl, who couldn't do anything to defend herself, the girl who was being bullied was a fair-skinned, dark-haired girl around 15 years old.

Girl (speaking to the girl who seemed to be the leader of that group): Please Bianca, I swear it was an accident.

The girl being bullied was almost crying, when she received the other girl's answer, Bianca was a dark haired Latin girl and much bigger than the other one.

Bianca: I warned you not to mess with us, didn't I newbie? but you didn't listen to me, now you'll get what you deserve (she takes the bag that was in the girl's hand and threw it in the trash) you won't need this.

Girl: No, please, that was for my mom.

Bianca: Too bad, I do not care.

Girl (crying): Stop it, stop it please.

Samantha was watching the whole scene, for a while she was reluctant, 'this has nothing to do with me' she thought, but after seeing how the other girl was suffering and how cowardly the others were attacking her, she couldn't contain herself, she went to the girls and said:

Samantha: Excuse me girls, I think she (she points to the girl who was being bullied) was pretty clear when she asked you to stop.

Bianca wasn't intimidated and glared at Samantha, and the other girls did the same.

Bianca: That's none of your business granny.

Girl: Ma'am, if I were you I wouldn't mess with them.

Samantha: Don't worry girl, I'm not afraid of them.

Bianca: You sure talk tough for someone your age, you want to protect that nerd, fine, but you're going to have to fight us.

Samantha: No problem.

Bianca: But this is going to be a fight with a lot of disadvantage for you, six against one.

Girl: What? but that's not fair.

Bianca: Shut the hell up, that's how it's going to be, unless that old lady wants to give up.

Samantha: Well, that 'old lady' isn't going anywhere until you leave this girl alone.

Bianca: Haha, okay then, have it your way.

Bianca went for Samantha, trying to hit her with a punch, but she ducks and hits Bianca with a kick, knocking her down, so the other five girls attack all at once, Samantha grabs one of them and throws her against another, knocking the two down, then two more girls attacked her, this time, Samantha jumped over one of them and grabbed her from behind, using her as a human shield to block the other girl's attacks, after that, another girl tried to attack her, but she dodges every blow effortlessly, she then knocks the girl out with that kick she used against Tory in the season 4 tournament, when they all looked knocked out, Samantha went to the other girl to check on her but she didn't even have time to say nothing, because Bianca got up and tried to hit her from behind, but Samantha noticed the attack and grabbed her opponent's leg, before being hit, she then threw Bianca to the ground and hit her with a punch.

Samantha: So, have you had enough of this old lady?

The six girls ran away, but Bianca turned to Samantha and said:

Bianca: We will not forget about that.

Samantha: You better not to forget.

Girl: That was... AMAZING! the way you fought those six girls at once and defeated them without breaking a sweat, it felt like a video game.

Samantha: I assure you that was very real, but that's beside the point, are you okay?

Girl: Yes, thanks to you, but the stuff my mom told me to buy are ruined and the money is over, we won't have anything to eat tonight.

Samantha: Don't worry (she takes 300 dollars out of her pocket) here, keep it.

Girl: No, I can't accept it, you've already helped me a lot...

Samantha: I insist, let's go to the supermarket for you to buy your stuff.

They go to the supermarket and the girl comes out with even more stuff than before.

Girl: Thank you so much for your help Mrs...

Samantha: I'm Samantha, Samantha Larusso and you are?

Girl: Katherine, Katherine Grey, but you can call me Kate.

Samantha: Nice to meet you Kate.

Kate: I say the same Samantha, about that fight earlier, I still can't believe you did that for me.

Samantha: I just couldn't stand it.

Kate: But what was that anyway?

Samantha: It was karate, good old karate.

Kate: From what I can see you've been training for a long time.

Samantha: Over 30 years.

Kate: Can you teach me?

Samantha: That depends, why do you want to learn karate?

Kate: Those girls are going to make my life hell at school, if I knew 1% of what you know I could defend myself.

Samantha: Hmm, in that case I can teach you a few things, but would your parents accept it?

Kate: I don't know, I'm going to talk to them today, hey, how about you come over to my house and talk to them?

Samantha: No problem, I have a few minutes.

Samantha goes with Kate to her house and a woman who looks like Kate opens the door.

Kate's Mom: Katherine Grey, I told you not to talk to strangers.

Kate: Mom, this is Samantha Larusso, she saved me when some girls attacked me, she does karate and offered to teach me.

Kate's Mom: I don't know if it's a good idea.

Kate: Please mom, I need to defend myself somehow.

Kate's Mom: Sweetie, you know we don't have the money to pay for karate classes.

Samantha: Don't worry about the money, I'll teach her for free.

Kate's mother: It's very kind of you, Mrs. Larusso, but... (she sees that her daughter was almost crying) fine, but she better not get in trouble.

Kate: Thanks mom (she looks at Samantha) does that mean you're going to be my karate teacher?

Samantha: No, I'm going to be your sensei, meet me tomorrow at the following address (she takes a piece of paper and writes down the address) at 8:00.

Kate: I'll be there, thanks again.

The next day, Samantha went to the place where she trained when she was young and a few minutes later Kate arrived.

Samantha: Great, everyone is here, but before we start training we have a few rules, first: I don't want you to strike first, if someone wants to fight you, use everything you got, but I don't want you to start the fights, I don't want to train a bully, do you understand?

Kate: Yeah, don't worry, I have no intention of starting any fights either.

Samantha: Great, there's one more rule, I promise to teach karate, this is my part, you learn, I speak, you do it without questioning, this is your part, okay?

Kate: Deal.

Samantha: All right then (she shows some cars) you can start by washing these cars, wax on with your left hand and off with your right hand (she shows the movement).

Kate: Yes sensei.

Kate was in doubt, but she saw what Samantha was capable of, so she decided to do as she said, after a few hours she had washed and waxed all the cars.

Kate: I'm done.

Samantha: Great, let's go to the next part.

Samantha takes a brush and a can of paint and they go to a fence.

Samantha: Now paint the fence, like this (she shows the movement of painting the fence).

Kate: Yes sensei.

Kate still didn't understand how that training would help her to defend herself, but she did it anyway, after a few hours she finished.

Kate: I'm done painting the fence.

Samantha: Okay, now let's move on to the next part.

Kate: Next part, what are you...

Samantha: Sand the floor like this (she shows the movement that should be done).

Kate: Yes sensei.

Again Kate does what Samantha said, but she found this 'training' very weird, she couldn't take it anymore, when she finished sanding the floor it was almost night, so she decided to confront Samantha.

Kate: Look Mrs. Larusso, I washed the cars, painted the fence and sanded the floor, but I still don't understand how that's going to help me defend myself against those girls, I'm not sure if you wanted to train me or just wanted someone to work for you for free.

Samantha: I figured you were going to say this (she gets into a fighting stance) show me 'sand the floor'.

Kate: You mean the movement?

Samantha: Exactly, show me.

Samantha was about to hit Kate, but she blocks the attack.

Samantha: Great, now show me 'paint the fence'.

She tries to hit Kate again, but Kate blocks the attack again.

Samantha: Excellent.

Kate: Now I get it, all of that were actually defensive techniques, I was practicing karate without realizing it, sorry for what I said earlier.

Samantha: Don't worry, that's what everyone thinks about that part of the training, it's getting late, I think you'd better go home now, meet me here tomorrow at the same time so we can continue the training.

Kate: Of course, at this rate I'll be ready to defend myself against those girls in no time.

Samantha: Be patient, never underestimate your opponents, in my fight with them I could see that they also know a little bit of karate.

Kate: Yeah, I heard some of my friends at school saying that those girls are part of a dojo here in the Valley, Cobra Karate, or something... wait no, the name is Cobra Kai.

At that moment the expression on Samantha's face completely changed and it looked like she had seen a ghost, what do you mean Cobra Kai was back?

Kate: Mrs. Larusso... is there a problem?

Samantha (calming down): No, it's nothing, don't worry.

Samantha (in her head): What? Cobra Kai came back and I didn't even know? how did this happen? since when? who is the sensei?

Her thoughts were soon interrupted when Bianca appeared at the dojo wearing a Cobra Kai gi and accompanied by a blonde woman that Samantha recognized immediately.

?: Well, well, well, long time no see you... Samantha Larusso.

Samantha: Tory Nichols, I should have known.

Tory: Look, my Cobra Kai is different from Silver's, I didn't reopen the dojo to fight you, so doesn't even start.

Samantha: Then why did you reopen this place? do you remember how much pain it caused?

Tory: How about if I ask the questions? what happened to your 'Karate is for defense only' or 'Don't strike first' nonsense?

Samantha: First of all these 'nonsenses' have already beaten you several times, second don't even mention that tournament because we both know your victory was illegal and third, what do you mean by that?

Tory: Let me explain what I'm talking about.

Tory's Flashback:

This morning I was teaching my students as usual.

Tory: Defeat does not exist in this dojo, does it?

Students: NO SENSEI!

Tory: Fear does not exist in this dojo, does it?

Students: NO SENSEI!

Tory: We do not train for to be merciful here, mercy is for the weak (she sees Bianca) what's the matter Ms. Silva?

Bianca: Sensei, yesterday my friends and I were just minding our own business, when a woman came and beat us up, we tried to fight her, but she fought like a ninja, but if you faced her...

Tory: And what was that woman like?

Bianca: She had fair skin, brown hair and was in a car that said 'Larusso Auto'.

Tory: Don't worry, I'll take care of this.

End of flashback

Tory: Like I said, I didn't reopen Cobra Kai to fight you, but if you mess with my students again, you're going to be in trouble.

Samantha: So they're your students, I should have known, but it looks like they didn't tell you the whole story, they were in six, beating up a girl much smaller than them, what did you expect me to do?

Tory: Well, if they were beating her for sure there was a reason, that's your last warning, stay away from my students, or else...

Samantha: Or else what? do you think i'm afraid of you?

Tory: I see where this is going, the All-Valley Tournament is four months from now, if your student wins Cobra Kai is gone forever, but if she loses... oops, it's useless, you'll break the promise just like your dad did.

Samantha: I'm willing to shut down my dojo as long as your student wins honestly. or you from Cobra Kai don't know what that word means?

Tory: Alright then, did you hear that Ms. Silva? leave her alone until the tournament.

Bianca: Yes sensei.

Samantha: You two better watch out because Miyagi-Fang, aka Cobra Kai terror is back.

Tory: Not for long.

She and Bianca leave and Samantha goes back to talking to Kate.

Kate: Sensei, what was that?

Samantha: An old enemy, someone I thought I had defeated a long time ago is back, this dojo has been around for over 60 years, back when my father was your age and its specialty is corrupting young teenagers and turning them into psychopaths, trust me, these guys are dangerous.

Kate: Wow, is it that bad?

Samantha: It's worse than you can imagine, once that woman caused a fight at school which almost left my husband paraplegic and that's just the tip of the iceberg... look, I know this fight isn't yours and I hate to ask you this, but will you help me to finally put an end to Cobra Kai?

Kate: ...Yes, I will.


Alright guys, here ends the first chapter 'But why a sequel to Cobra Kai? the show isn't even over yet' i know, we are waiting for season 5, but probably it will only come out at the end of this year and i want more Cobra Kai AND I WANT IT NOW, that's why I'm writing this story, probably when the show ends I'll rewrite this story with some modifications, but until then that's what we have, hope you like it, of course we will have the presence of characters like Miguel, Hawk and Demetri, as well as Daniel and Johnny, but it will all come with time, see you IN THE NEXT CHAPTER.
