Nicole and Robby had been dating for two weeks. Nicole had never been happier. She felt like she finally had someone who cared about her, someone who truly understood her because he was just like her. It was early in the morning. Nicole and Robby were at Miyagi-Do training. They were the only ones there. They were sparring. She front kicked Robby. He fell down. It was the first time she'd ever knocked someone down.

"I'm sorry, are you ok?" She asked.

"I'm fine." He stood up. "That was great." "I'm proud of you." They kissed. As they were kissing Daniel and Sam showed up.

"Ahem." Daniel said clearing his throat. They broke the kiss.

"Hi Mr. LaRusso." "We were just training."

"It looked like you were kissing."

"Before that we were training." "Nicole knocked me down with a front kick."

"Good, that means her kicks are improving.' "Let's get down to training."

That night Nicole had to close up the pizza place. Just as she was about to turn out the lights, she heard glass shattering outside. When she got outside she saw that her tires were slashed, her windshield was smashed and all four of her car windows were smashed out. On the hood in red spray paint and underlined was the word.

Bitch!"

"God damn it!" She shouted knowing exactly who did it but knew she couldn't prove it. She called Tammy, no answer. She called Brad, no answer. She could only think of one more person left to call. She dialed Daniel's number.

"Hello?" Daniel said.

"Hi Mr. LaRusso, sorry to bother you but can you come pick me up?" She explained what happened.

"I'm on my way "

It took Daniel fifteen minutes to get there. She got in the backseat and was surprised to see Robby sitting there.

"Hey." He said.

"Hi." They hugged. Just hugging him made her feel a little better. She told Daniel where to go.

"Did that Kate girl do this?"

"I can't prove it but I know it was her." "I don't know what I'm gonna do Robby." "I won't be able to pay for repairs for months." "I don't know how I'll get back and forth to work."

"I'll have it towed to the dealership and fix it free of charge." Daniel said. "I'll get you a loner until your car is fixed."

"You don't have to Mr. LaRusso "

"I insist."

"Ok." "Thank you so much."

They pulled up outside of Nicole's parents house.

"Thank you Mr. LaRusso." She said.

"You're welcome."

She and Robby looked at each other. "Bye."

"Bye." He said. They gave each other a quick kiss. She got out of the car.

Nicole went into the house and into the living room. Tammy and Brad were sitting on the couch.

"I called both of you."

"We're watching a movie." Tammy said not caring. Nicole rolled her eyes and went upstairs.

Three days later Nicole was at work. She was going over to Sam's to spend the night when she got off work. Robby came in and went up to the counter where she was.

"Guess what's all done." Robby said holding up her keys. "Can I have the keys to the rental?" They exchanged keys. "See you tonight."

"Bye."

"Bye."

Later that night Nicole was leaving work. She was alone. She was to her car when she heard.

"Hey bitch." She knew without turning around that it was Kate. When she turned around she saw Kate. "Got your car fixed already?" She said walking up to her.

"Just leave me alone."

"I don't think so." She went to punch her. Nicole blocked it and kicked her. She fell down. Suddenly a second girl who Nicole didn't know came running up and kicked her in the face. Unbeknownst to Nicole it was Tory. Tory picked her up off the ground and she and Kate beat her for several minutes before dropping her on the ground. Nicole blacked out.

A half hour later the LaRusso's were startled by banging on the front door. Robby answered it. Nicole was standing there barely able to stand and bloody. Robby was horrified.

"Robby." She said before passing out. Robby caught her.

"Mr. LaRusso, help!" Robby yelled panicked.
