Lunch Fight

Brooks woke up the next day and groaned in bed. He rolled off and fell to the ground with a thud. He pushed up with his arms and started doing push-ups and sit-ups. When he was done he walked out of the room, took a shower, got dressed and walked outside with a piece of toast in his mouth.

Brooks saw Miguel talking with Johnny and walked over, yawning.

Brooks stopped in front of the duo and said "What's going on?" as he fixed his hair, slicking it back. Miguel said "My mom said I can train again!" Brooks scratched his neck and said "That's great!" He snuck a look at Johnny and said "What a great woman." Johnny rolled his eyes and Miguel laughed and said "I know right?"

Brooks shook his head and laughed as they walked to school.

A while later

Brooks was sitting at his spot outside at lunch but Tory never showed up. He frowned and smoked by himself, wondering where she went. He mumbled to himself "Maybe something happened with her mom?" Brooks sighed and felt the first urge to buy a phone in his life.

Brooks went back to the Dojo after school with Miguel and started on a dummy. Miguel noticed something was off and said "You okay, Brooks?" Brooks looked up and said "Yeah, man. Why?" Miguel shrugged and said "You just look on edge, man. That's all."

Brooks stopped and said "Did a girl tell you that I couldn't make it yesterday?" Miguel nodded and said "Tall, dirty blonde, smoking hot?" Brooks nodded and said "That's the one. Didn't see her today." as he kicked the Dummy again. Miguel rubbed his chin and said "Maybe she wasn't at school?"

Brooks nodded and punched the dummy as he said "That's what I'm thinking too. Man, I need a phone. Would be much easier." Miguel said "We can go get one on the weekend?" Brooks smiled and nodded "Sounds good."

Johnny walked over and said "What's going on here?" Brooks said "Nothing." Miguel smirked and said "Brooks has a Gir-" Brooks spun and kicked Miguel, who blocked and laughed as he finished "A girlfriend!" Brooks shouted "Bastard!" as he kicked again, hitting Miguel in the shins and knocking him off his feet.

Johnny smirked and said "A girlfriend eh? She hot?" Brooks said "Smoking." Johnny nodded and said "Nice, dude." as he high-fived Brooks. Miguel sat up on the floor and chuckled "She's so hot, I met her." Brooks laughed and kicked Miguel again as he said "Dude!" Miguel just rolled away and laughed.

Johnny shook his head and said "Alright. Enough fooling around. We're starting serious training from now on." Brooks and Miguel looked over and said "Serious training?" Johnny nodded and said seriously "Super serious." Brooks and Miguel nodded and Johnny smirked.

Over the next couple of days, Miguel and Brooks went through intense training. Stopping baseballs shooting out of a baseball machine, escaping a choke hold, sparring with Johnny, sparring with each other, and running in the mountains. The training kept going for a week.

Every day they had school, Brooks still hadn't seen Tory. He was a bit worried if he was being honest. A few days ago he went to the mall with Miguel and bought the newest phone on the market. Miguel taught him how to use it and he added Miguel and Johnny's numbers before getting a facebook and instagram.

Brooks took a couple pictures with Miguel and posted them on his phone. He even got Miguel to make a Cobra Kai background on his computer and used it as his phone background. Brooks went back to school on Monday and added a few more people to his contacts, even adding Sam just to get more likes and getting her name for Miguel.

Brooks and Miguel walked to the Dojo and Brooks gave Miguel, Sam's instagram and number. Miguel was ecstatic and hugged Brooks, getting a punch in return. Miguel took the punch and laughed like a fool.

Brooks shook his head and they started training in the Dojo with Johnny. While they were training the door opened. Johnny, Miguel, and Brooks looked over to see Aisha. Johnny said "Yoga starts at 5."

Aisha looked funny and said "I'm actually here for Karate. I saw the website and saw there was a session today." Johnny shook his head and said "There are no female students in Cobra Kai." Aisha said "What? Why not?" Johnny replied "It just doesn't make sense. Like women in the army." Miguel and Brooks looked at Johnny weirdly. Miguel coughed and said "Sensei, can I talk with you in the office?"

Johnny nodded and the three went into the office. Brooks picked out a beer from the fridge and opened it saying "Dad, sorry to burst your bubble but there are women in the army." Johnny looked over and said "Really?" Brooks nodded and drank from the beer. Johnny said "Wow.. Hey! That's my last beer!" as he swiped the beer from Brooks' hands and started drinking.

Miguel said "Sensei, you should take her." Johnny said "No. Women can't fight. They have little hollow bones." Brooks chuckled and said "I heard she's a rich girl..." Miguel's eyes lit up and he said "Oh yeah. Super rich! Also she's being bullied at our school."

Johnny said "Wait, wait, wait. She's loaded?" Miguel said "Her dad is a pro athlete." Johnny raised a brow and grinned "Alright, let's milk her." as he left the office, Miguel said "Ah wait, Sensei. That's not what I..." Brooks patted his shoulder and said "You're a good salesman, ever considered selling cars?"

Miguel gave him a look before walking out of the office. Brooks grabbed the beer from Johnny's desk and walked out of the office while drinking. He saw Johnny standing in front of Aisha and saying "You wanna be in Cobra Kai, you gotta stop acting like a girl."

Aisha said "How do girls act?" Johnny said "You know, being annoying and over dramatic, crying, and not letting other people finishing their sentences." Aisha said "I know a few guys who-" Johnny cut her off and shouted "Quiet!" Aisha straightened out and Johnny paced back and forth as he said "My students tell me you're being harassed at school."

Aisha nodded and said "It's mostly online. They make fake accounts and send me mean messages like I'm ugly and I should kill myself." Brooks spit out his drink and started laughing, Johnny looked behind him and saw the beer, he squinted and Brooks started drinking again with a grin. Johnny turned back and said "What a bunch of pussies! Back in my day, we used to tell that to their faces. You're not afraid of these losers are you?"

Aisha shook her head and Johnny nodded as he said "Good! When I'm done with you, you'll send a message back, but it won't be with your keyboard but with your fists. Got it?" Aisha nodded heavily. Brooks clapped and said "Piggy's joining! Cool!"

Aisha smiled and Johnny said "Not so fast. Diaz! Spar with her." Miguel was stunned and said "What?! Me?!" Johnny nodded and said "Show her everything you've learned." Miguel complained "Why can't Brooks do it?" Johnny looked at Brooks and saw the bottle was half empty before saying "Go for it, Brooks."

Brooks gave him a look and said "You're not getting my beer, old man." Johnny said "That's MY beer!" Brooks gave him the finger and Johnny kicked out, Brooks dodged back and drank the beer at the same time. Brooks slithered around Johnny and swept his leg out, tripping him up.

Johnny rolled on the ground and smirked "Not bad kid." Brooks grinned and said "Some shitty old man taught me." Johnny chuckled and said "Diaz, Spar with Piggy." Brooks grinned and turned around saying "Get her Migs. Or I'll look down on you."

Miguel sighed and got into stance. Aisha looked around and said "I just want to remind everyone this is my first day." Johnny got up and stood next to Brooks as he said "Your enemy doesn't care what day it is." he elbowed Brooks and caught the falling beer with a victorious grin.

Brooks held his ribs and said "Fuck!" Johnny added "They use any means necessary." Aisha nodded and got herself prepared. Miguel said "I'm sorry, Aisha." as he kicked her in the stomach, sending her to the floor.

Miguel panicked and said "Oh my god, Aisha are you okay?!" Aisha got up and tackled Miguel to the ground before dropping a knee on his ribs. Miguel spat out air and groaned. Johnny clapped and said "Girls a natural Cobra!" suddenly there was screaming outside.

Johnny frowned and handed Brooks the beer before saying "I'll be right back. Brooks, you're in charge." as he left.

Brooks drank the beer and lit a cigarette as he said "Alright! Fall in!" Aisha and Miguel got into line. Brooks chuckled and said "Front fist! Haiz!" Miguel got into stance and punched, while Aisha copied Miguel. Brooks smirked and shouted "Haiz!" getting a 'Haiz' in return from the other two. He kept going for a few more times then said "Front kick! Haiz!" 'Haiz!'

Brook kept rotating in the moves he and Miguel usually practiced while drinking and smoking all the way until Johnny came back. Johnny had a frown on his face and walked over, Brooks was about to say a joke when he caught Johnny's expression. He crushed the cigarette and threw it in the garbage before putting down the beer and falling in line with a serious expression.

Johnny nodded and said "Full rotation! Haiz!" getting a loud 'Haiz!' in return.

Time passed and the lesson ended

Brooks and Miguel were sitting in Johnny's office. Brooks said "What's the damage." Johnny said "Double rent." Miguel and Brooks frowned and Miguel said "Without notice? That's bullshit." Brooks was silent and Johnny said "That's the reality." Brooks suddenly said "It just raised, without notice? You don't think.."

Johnny looked at Brooks and said "No. Why? It makes no sense." Brooks said "He hates you, why not." Johnny shook his head and said "Man, there are a lot more people than me in this strip mall." Brooks retorted "Why would he care?" Johnny was silent and Miguel said "Who?"

Johnny waved and said "Don't worry about it, Diaz. You two, go home. I'll find a fix to this." Brooks and Miguel nodded, Miguel left the office and Brooks stepped out but paused and poked his head back in saying "Don't come home too late." Johnny smiled and nodded, Brooks nodded and left with Miguel.

Johnny watched them go with a smile.

Brooks and Miguel went back home and went to sleep, thinking about what to do with the Dojo.

The next day

Brooks got dressed and went to school with Miguel. They talked on the road about how to get money for the Dojo. Miguel said "We just need more students." Brooks mumbled "We could probably get more if we advertised heavily." Miguel said "I'll print more flyers and leave them around the school and town."

Brooks nodded and said "That's a good idea but we need more..." Miguel paused and said "Speaking of more, have you seen Tory yet?" Brooks sighed and shook his head "I haven't seen her since you saw her. Also, she's in a rough spot. I doubt she'll have the extra scratch to pay for Karate. Plus if she's not into it then I won't force her."

Miguel grinned and nudged Brooks as he said "Ahhah, you're really a big softie eh?" Brooks gave Miguel a look and said "Hey! Fuck off, Migs!" Miguel laughed and entered the school, Brooks grumbled as he followed him in.

A while later

Brooks was already sitting outside and smoking at lunch. He was playing around with his phone and looking up people on instagram. He sighed and heard loud noises coming from the cafeteria, he frowned and threw his cigarette before going into the cafeteria.

He walked inside to see Miguel fighting Kyler and his friends. Brooks laughed and ran up before shouting "Migs, duck!" Miguel ducked and Brooks drop kicked the fat kid, who was punching Miguel from behind.

Brooks laughed and said "Nighty-Night fatso." as he kicked him in the chin, knocking him out cold. Brooks ducked and swept his foot out, tripping the ginger kid to the ground. Brooks grabbed the guy's arm and lifted him up before slamming him in a lunch table.

He dusted his hands to see Miguel, smash a lunch tray in Kyler's face and knock him out as he stood on a table. Brooks chuckled and merged into the crowd before shouting "Yeah, Cobra Kai!" the students around shouted "Cobra Kai!" and slowly started chanting 'Cobra Kai' over and over.

Brooks slipped away and reached the door outside before going back to his spot. He stopped and looked over to see Tory sitting down with a smile. He smiled and said "You're back." Tory nodded and said "I saw your fight. Pretty impressive." Brooks flexed his arms and said "Hot?" Tory smirked and said "Super."

Brooks chuckled and sat next to her before fishing out a cigarette and his phone as he said "So I got a phone." Tory giggled and took it from him before putting in her number and instagram. Brooks chuckled and said "Text me when you have time?" Tory nodded and said "I should have time soon. My mom was-"

Brooks stopped her and said "I don't need an explanation. I trust you." Tory choked on her words and her eyes became a little red, she wiped them and smiled before hugging Brooks, whispering "Thank you." Brooks hugged her with a smile before it became a little evil and he pulled her onto his lap.

Tory was startled and Brook whispered in her ear "Now you owe me a week" Tory smiled and said "Well what are you waiting for?" Brooks grinned and kissed her soft lips. Time passed as they enjoyed each other's company, Brooks completely forgot about school and just stayed with Tory outside for the rest of school until the bell rang.

Brooks looked around and grumbled "Over already?" Tory giggled and leaned on his shoulder as she said "There's always tomorrow~" Brooks pinched her nose and clicked his tongue as he said "You're just too cute." Tory rolled her eyes and said "Really? Somebody called me a porker the other day."

Brooks sighed and said "Somebody finally said it." Tory laughed and slapped his chest with a snort. Brooks rubbed her cheeks and squished them together as he said "I have to go." Tory had a fish face and said sadly "Chu habe to leabe?" Brooks chuckled and nodded as he said "We can do something... Tonight-"

Tory shook her head and Brooks coughed and said "Tomorrow night?" Tory giggled and nodded. Brooks grinned and said "Perfect, I'll pick you up tomorrow night. 7 okay?" Tory nodded and Brooks kissed her before saying "Alright. I gotta go." Tory nodded and they left the school.
