PREVIOUSLY: Samantha and Tory encounter an old enemy, Terry Silver, but this time he's a robot, he tells them that he faked his own death just to get revenge on Tory, so they fight, Tory starts well, but she has trouble when Silver starts to use his dirty techniques, Bianca and Victor try to help her but are easily defeated, Silver hits Victor so hard that he doesn't get up, Tory is very sad, her sadness turns to anger, she starts attacking Silver without thinking, but still she can't surpass him, that is until Victor gets up and tells her to stay calm, realizing that her son was fine, Tory manages to control her anger and reaches a level never seen before, she hits Silver with an extremely powerful attack, she is about to finish him, but then Silver does something desperate, he tries to self-destruct just to kill Tory, now she has to find a way to save herself and her students.
Tory has an extremely difficult fight against Terry Silver, even though she defeated him, Silver decides to self-destruct, only to kill her, but other things happened while they were fighting.
Miguel and Robby were running away with the prisoners, when suddenly they found Hawk and Demetri, accompanied by Hikaru, Takashi and other students.
Miguel: What are you doing here and who are these children?
Hawk: These are the Miyagi Fist students, but they're not evil, they're just being used.
Demetri: Yeah, so we're releasing them.
Robby: And where are Samantha and Tory?
Hawk Jr.: They're still exploring the hideout, I don't think we need to worry about them.
Suddenly they hear a scream, it was Tory, as Silver hit her with that paralyzing beam.
Robby: You hear that? it looks like Tory.
Richard: We have to see if she's okay, come on.
Suddenly another voice interrupts them
Masa: Not so fast.
Yes, Masa and Mune were still alive, Anthony defeated them but didn't kill them.
Hikaru: Father, uncle, you are fine.
Mune: Hikaru, what are you doing with them?
Hawk: Miguel, Robby, go to Tory, we'll take care of them.
Miguel and Robby leave, while the Binary Brothers were about to face Masa and Mune.
Masa: What do you think you are doing with our students?
Demetri was about to say something, but Takashi cut him off.
Takashi: I'll tell you what they're doing, they're releasing us, we won't live for the Miyagi Fist anymore, we want to fight for ourselves.
Mune: Ridiculous, we were born to serve the Miyagi Fist, to fulfill the wish of our ancestors and destroy Miyagi-Do and all those who try to interfere must be destroyed.
Hawk: Oh yeah? so get ready for the fury of the Hawk.
Masa: Haha, you really think you can win? get ready, you are about to face the best in the world in teamwork.
Mune: Prepare to feel the power of Masa and Mune.
Masa attacks Hawk, but he easily blocks the attacks, Mune tries to help him, but Demetri knocks him away with a kick, Mune tries to attack Demetri with an ice sword, but Demetri jumps over him and hits him from behind with an ice sword, Masa tries to hit Hawk, but he dodges the attack and hits his opponent in the head with an axe kick.
Demetri: Go back to Chrono Trigger.
Hawk: Gee, they got beaten too badly by us, not even Kyler gets beaten that badly.
Demetri: You don't miss an opportunity to mock him, do you?
Hawk: Sorry, it's stronger than I... and also stronger than Kyler.
Richard sees Masa and Mune's bodies lying on the ground and goes to talk to Hikaru.
Richard: Hikaru, sorry about that.
Hikaru: No, you were right, we were just being used, too bad my father and uncle didn't realize that.
Demetri: Now let's go back to the village, I hope everything is ok with Miguel and Robby.
Back to the present:
Tory: What are you saying?
Silver: I'm saying that if I go down, you're going down with me, activate self-destruction.
Tory: NO!
Silver: See you in hell.
Silver activated his self-destruct, Tory and the others only have 15 seconds to escape before he explodes and kills everyone in that room, unfortunately Tory was too tired from the fight against Silver, she could barely run.
Tory: Victor, Bianca, save yourselves, don't worry about me.
Bianca: But...
Tory: I said GO!
Victor and Bianca have no choice but to leave, Silver starts laughing victoriously as there were only 5 seconds left.
Silver: Time for you to join your mom and Kreese, 3, 2...
Before he finishes his sentence he is surrounded by several ice walls that block the explosion, shortly after that, Robby appears and saves Tory.
When the dust settles, Tory sees she's alive and also sees who saved her.
Tory: Robby, what are you doing here?
Robby: Just saving the woman I love.
Tory: Well I... thanks.
They were about to kiss, but Miguel interrupted them.
Miguel: Look, I'm happy for you two, but we still have problems to solve, where's Samantha?
Tory: She went that way, let's go to her.
So the three went through that door, meanwhile, Samantha, Kate and Vivian arrive in another room, where they find the master Katuso Miyagi.
Katuso: So you finally arrived, I didn't expect you to make it.
Samantha: You underestimated me, now stop this nonsense and release the parents of these children.
Katuso: Hey, take it easy, first I want to congratulate you for finding me, but you needed your friends' help to get here.
Samantha: Look who's talking, we were in 12, we don't need an army.
Katuso: You won round 1, but let's see how you do in round 2.
He presses a button and the floor turns into a fighting ring, just below there are a bunch of snakes, Kate, Vivian and the other guys from the Miyagi Fist are watching from a bleacher.
Katuso: Now we will fight to the death.
Samantha: Okay, time to end this.
Vivian: Go Aunt Sam!
Kate: Finish him!
Samantha and Katuso get into fighting stance, Katuso makes the first move and tries to hit Samantha, but she dodges the attack and counterattacks him with a kick, he tries to attack her again, but this time she plans to hit him with the crane kick, Katuso approaches her, but when he is a few meters away from her she uses the crane kick and something different happens, an ice crane flies out and hits Katuso, freezing him for a while, while he is frozen she hits him with several hits.
Katuso gets up and goes towards Samantha, she blocks some of his attacks, but then he manages to grab her leg and knock her to the ground, while she is on the ground he hits her with several flaming punches, until in a moment she can get him off her.
Katuso: This is just getting started.
Katuso runs towards Samantha to hit her, but she creates some ice walls to block his attacks, but it looks like he was already expecting this, he destroys the ice walls with flaming punches, he then hits Samantha with a axe kick to the head which stuns her, then he hits her with multiple attacks.
Katuso: Do you understand now? this is the difference between us and you, the fact is that since our defeat to Miyagi-Do we have evolved our style, waiting for that day and today we are stronger than ever, that's why we are the strongest in the world, neither you nor anyone else can beat us, do you understand what I'm saying?
Samantha: Is it true? I can't win?... no I can't give up, I have to keep fighting.
Samantha was at a disadvantage, but she couldn't give up, if she gave up the Miyagi Fist would win and be free to do their evil things, so she would have to fight with all her strength and she wasn't the only one who thought so.
Tory: That's right, so why are you taking so long?
Samantha heard that voice and looked at the stands, she was very happy to see her former rival there.
Samantha: Tory...
Tory: The only one who will defeat you is me, I will never forgive you if you lose to this guy.
Tory wasn't the only one there, Miguel, Robby, Hawk, Demetri and the other teenagers were there too, in addition to all the prisoners they'd rescued.
Kate: Tory's right, you have to win... I've already lost one mother to these guys, I don't want to lose another...
Samantha: Kate... don't worry, I'm not done yet, pay attention Katuso, I will defeat you, no matter what, for all the pain you and the Miyagi Fist caused I will be victorious, now I will make you understand the true karate.
Katuso: Enough of this nonsenses, what can someone like you do?
Samantha: Let me show you what I can do.
She prepares to use the crane kick again.
Katuso: That again? no matter how many times you use it you will lose.
He runs towards her, she uses the crane kick and again the ice crane starts flying towards Katuso, but he dodges, he jumps and is about to hit Samantha with an axe kick to the head, but then she counterattacks with a flaming punch sending the opponent flying.
Katuso: It can't be, how did she do that?
Miguel: She did it! what incredible accuracy.
Robby: Just like Chozen taught.
Katuso attacks her again, but this time she blocks all his attacks and hits him with an ice kick, leaving him frozen for a while, he breaks free quickly and tries to hit her with that attack that Tory used against Silver, but Samantha blocks the attacks by creating walls of ice, she then grabs Katuso and hits him with a flaming punch, sending him flying once more.
Katuso: Impossible, the Miyagi Fist's ultimate fighting style is being pushed back by her.
Samantha: You weren't the only ones who evolved your style.
Victor: Yes sir, she still has a few tricks up her sleeve.
Tory: Now she looks like the Samantha I used to fight.
Now the roles were reversed, Katuso was on the defense while Samantha was attacking, everything seemed fine, now all that was needed was a final blow.
Katuso: It can't be... the Miyagi Fist and everything it wished for 300 years is in my hands and I'm losing to HER?! This can't go on, I can't lose, I will NOT lose, NOT FOR SOMEONE LIKE HER! time for plan B, alright gentlemen, ATTACK!
Samantha: What?
Tory: Hey, this isn't fair, this should be a 1 on 1 fight.
Katuso: So you still don't understand? I have no honor.
Suddenly, several fighters from Miyagi's Fist enter the arena and attack Samantha, she manages to defeat them all with a little work, but the more she defeats, the more they attack.
Robby: That's not good, she might even defeat some of them, but if those guys keep attacking, she's done for.
Miguel: So we have to stop them.
Vivian: I will help you.
Then they attacked the other members of the Miyagi Fist, all of them, even Tory who was badly injured from the fight against Silver managed to defeat some of them.
Samantha: So this is how you want to beat me? fighting dirty? what value is in a victory achieved in this way?
Katuso: That's why I say you Miyagi-Do are weak, always wasting time with nice words and things like 'fight with honor', what matters is winning, the way we do it doesn't matter.
Samantha: No, you're wrong and I'm going to prove it to you by defeating you, right here and right now!
Samantha had to keep fighting, not just for her own sake but for the sake of everyone else and she was determined to win, but would she be able to beat an opponent with a bunch of henchmen and who didn't mind fighting dirty?
Katuso jumps and tries to hit Samantha with a flaming flying kick, she manages to dodge him by just a little, then she grabs him from behind and tries to throw him to the ground, but at that moment, Katuso grabs her arm and the tables are turned.
Despite being more skilled, Samantha was not able to free herself, Katuso was much bigger and stronger than her, he then breaks one of her arms, causing her to scream in pain.
She was at a disadvantage, there was only one thing to do, but it was risky, after all as Chozen once said 'If enemy insists on war, you take away their ability to wage it', so she used her other arm to hit Katuso. with the pressure points technique and she succeeds, she hits both his arms, thus managing to free herself and hit her opponent with a kick to the chest that sent him away.
Katuso: Pressure points? Really? is that your best?
He just waves his arms and they start moving again.
Katuso: Time to end this fight.
Samantha: I only have one chance left.
Katuso runs towards her to deliver the final blow but then she creates several ice walls in front of him, he jumps over all the ice walls, then Samantha slams the ground and creates a big flame to block her opponent, but Katuso was already prepared for this, he created an ice wall to protect himself from the fire, her plan had failed and our heroes knew it.
Everyone: NO!
But Samantha's reaction was completely different from what everyone expected.
Samantha: Great, that's what I was waiting for.
Katuso: What?
Samantha rolls to the side and hits Katuso with that two-legged kick, causing him to fall into the snake pit.
Katuso: NOOOOOO!
He falls into the pit and is devoured by the snakes, Samantha didn't feel good about what he did, but it was the only option, she had to do it for the greater good, so she breathed a sigh of relief for a while.
Samantha (after taking a breath): I... I did it... (right after she says that she passes out and the others go to help her)
Everyone: SAMANTHA!
Everyone enters the arena to help her, but they still had some problems to solve, they still had to find the parents of the students who were still trapped, so they split up again, Demetri who was one of the fastest went to look for the parents of the students, while the others tried to get Samantha back safely.
Miguel: She exceeded her limit in that last fight, we have to take her to the hospital, urgently.
Madoka hears what Miguel said and says something in Japanese to the prisoners so they can help.
Later, when Samantha wakes up she didn't know where she was, she looked around and realized she was in her dojo, when suddenly she heard a voice.
?: It's been a while, Samantha-San.
Hearing that voice she saw someone she hadn't seen since she was a child.
Samantha: Mr. Miyagi... is that really you?
Miyagi: Hai.
Samantha: Wait, does that mean I'm...
Miyagi: No, you no dead, not yet at least.
Samantha was confused, she didn't understand what was happening.
Samantha: What's going on? I'm not understanding anything.
Miyagi: What's the last thing you remember?
Samantha: Hmm, let me think... oh, I remembered! I was in a fight, everyone was there, Miguel, Tory and my students, so I attacked my opponent and...
Miyagi: Hai, that's exactly what happened, after that fight, your body collapsed because of Miyagi-Do's secret techniques, since as you know, if they are used too much they can cause damage to the user.
While Samantha and Mr. Miyagi talked, Miguel and the others took Samantha to the hospital.
Robby: Samantha, you have to resist.
Vivian: Yes Aunt Sam, please don't leave us.
Back with Samantha and Mr. Miyagi:
Samantha: Okay, but I still don't understand, what are you doing here?
Miyagi: First of all, Miyagi came to congratulate you, you defeated one of the cruelest Miyagi in history, I always knew you would become strong, but I never imagined that you would become this strong, if Miyagi were alive you would be a great opponent.
Samantha: Thank you... but is that all?
Miyagi: No, now you have to make a choice (he walks to the dojo) if you think your mission has been accomplished, you can come with me, but if you think you still have something to do in this world, you can come back, choice is yours, what do you say? Was your mission accomplished?
Back at the hospital:
Miguel: Please Samantha, stay with us.
Tory: After all we've been through, it can't end like this.
Kate (almost crying): That day... you made me a promise... you said you'd always be there for me... you promised, please don't leave us...
Samantha already knew the answer to Mr. Miyagi's question.
Samantha: No, my mission is not over yet, there will of course be a day when I will stop fighting, but that day is not today, I will continue with my dojo because... I feel like I can make a difference in the lives of these children ...not to mention the difference they make on mine, which reminds me, I have a daughter now, and I made a promise to her, I promised that I would always be there for her and I will keep my word.
Mr. Miyagi smiles.
Miyagi: Miyagi always knew you would make the right choice, goodbye Samantha-San, say hello to your father for me.
Samantha: Goodbye Mr. Miyagi, I'll see you in a few years.
She wakes up in the hospital, Miguel and Kate were beside her.
Miguel: Samantha, you woke up!
Kate: When you fell at that time, I thought you weren't going to wake up anymore, so glad you're okay.
Samantha: Yeah, what happened?
Miguel: After your fight, you passed out, we rushed you to the hospital, you had surgery, but everything is fine now you just need some time to recover.
Kate: Then we can be a happy family.
Samantha: That's right... I've waited so long to say those words... my daughter...
Kate (hugging her): My mother... (she hugs Miguel too) my father, I finally have a complete family.
Samantha: I love you two.
Samantha hadn't even noticed that Tory was beside her in another hospital bed.
Tory: That's great, as always you took all the credit.
Samantha: It's not true, I wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for all of you. besides, you've defeated Silver and the world is better off without him.
Tory: You're right, now begins a new legacy for the Cobra Kai dojo, from today I will teach my students to fight with honor and show mercy from time to time, we will no longer make the mistakes of the past.
Samantha: That's great to hear.
Tory: But there's one more thing I still wanted to do, logically now none of us are in conditions to do that and even if we were I'd probably lose, but maybe in a while...
Samantha (smiling because she realized what Tory meant): I see where this is going, it will be a pleasure to face you again Tory.
Tory: So it's settled, in a year we'll fight again, but this time as friends.
A year later, in the arena where the regional tournament is held:
Tory: The time has finally come, Samantha, today we will finally settle this.
Samantha: That's right Tory, there's nothing better than a great fight in a great arena with a great opponent like you, but don't think I'm going to make it easy.
Robby: Don't forget that this fight is 2 on 2, this time me and Tory will win for sure.
Miguel: Yeah, right, the chances of you two winning is the same as the number of All Valley tournaments Robby has won.
Victor: Look Kate, I love you, but this time I have to cheer for my parents.
Kate: No problem, because I know my parents will win.
Daniel, Johnny, Hawk, Demetri and a few others are watching from the stands, even Nariyoshi and Madoka were there and they were holding a baby.
Johnny: What's up Daniele? what do you say we fight later.
Daniel: Sure, why not? but can you stop calling me that?
Johnny: Sorry man, old habits, by the way, the All Valley is in a month, get ready because my grandson is going to be a three-time champion.
The fight is about to begin.
Kate: Facing us, bow...
Victor: Facing each other, bow...
Bianca: Get ready...
Vivian: And... FIGHT!
That's it folks, end of story, this was for sure the biggest story I've written so far, and I mean in all ways, but it's also the one I enjoyed writing the most, so much so that I'm thinking of expanding this story in many ways, about this fight, I won't say anything, I'll leave it to you to imagine what happened, did Samantha and Miguel maintain their superiority and take down their rivals again? or did Tory finally have a fair victory against her great rival? Or did this fight end up like Daniel and Johnny's in season 4? Who knows?
But now I want to know about you, who do you think are the top 10 teenage fighters in history? and the top 10 adult fighters? leave your opinions.
And finally, at the end of this story, Johnny prophesied that Victor would win the All Valley tournament for the third time, something that neither him or Daniel were able to do, is he right? well, we'll have to wait a while to figure this out, as I'm going to write a story telling about the two All Valley tournaments that took place after the end of this story, but this one will take a while to come out, because before that I'm going to write about another All Valley tournament, the 2020 one, the one that Demetri won, which is something I want to happen in the original show, even though I think it's VERY unlikely.
That was it for today, see you IN THE NEXT STORY!
