The words of Miguel ring throughout the dojo. There's about an hour left of class left- heads whip around to the door. If this is another parent after their pussy ass kid snitched about-
no way. it's her.
"Ash!" Aisha exclaims. I see Tory's jaw clench. And Miguel looks at Sensei.
"Hello, I'm Sensei Lawrence. Are you interested in joining Cobra Kai Ms..?" Sensei Lawrence
"Auclair. And maybe...just feeling it out I guess." even her last name is gorgeous..how even. What am I saying. Strike first. Sensei opens his mouth but I chime in first.
"Sensei I got this. They call me Hawk. You really think you're Cobra Kai material? Cause being a badass doesn't come easy." I explain in a confident tone knowing she's gonna melt at it.
"Is that so..yeah I think I can handle it. Especially up against you, how many brain cells have you lost with all that hairspray in your hair?" She tilts her head and cocks an eyebrow. I feel my heart start beating fast, just like it used to with Kyler. This wasn't supposed to happen...why is everyone staring at me, get it together Hawk. I just stand there frozen.
"Well if she's so cocky, then let's see it." I hear Tory declare behind me. I eye her up and down and walk over to the mat. At this point I don't even think Sensei knows what to do, and Sensei Kreese just stays eyeing us. She follows close behind me to the mat and I get on guard, followed by her.
Ready...fight!
I do a jump spinning hook kick catching her in the ribs and knocking her on the floor holding her side. She cowers to the ground.
I approach her feeling my power re gained.
"Hey no hard feelings, you just can never underestimate the power, of the Ha-" before I can finish speaking I'm caught in a flying arm bar from below, and I feel like cheek bone hit the mat with her holding my arm in the submission position.
She stands up, with no words exiting her mouth and Sensei exclaims "Red Fighter Wins!" As Miguel flashes the red flag. We bow and exit the mat.
I feel ego pulsing. That is until I feel a hand on my shoulder.
"Hey, sorry about earlier. Clearly I had to mess with your superiority complex to get in your head a little bit. I'm Ash." She offers out her hand to me
"Do I look like a game to you?" I answer in a harsher tone than I meant to..what am I doing, I can't screw this up.
she tilts her head and begins to pull her hand down
I grab arm with both of my hands on shake her hand with with one hand while the other hold her elbow.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that the way it sounded. I'm Hawk, but you probably figured that out already.." I say trying to fix the damage I did.
She opens her mouth before Aisha calls her over to go to Sensei Lawrence's office to sign up I guess, Miguel runs over to me since we have a break, and punches me in the shoulder.
"Woah man, what was that? You seem..more tense than usual. That new chick Ash got you twisted up?" He asks only half joking.
"I'm fine, forget it man." I say shoving his hand away.
We continue through class with Sensei Kreese leading while Sensei Lawrence deals with Ash.
After class, Miguel and Tory head out. They have some thing at the roller rink I guess, time to strike first. I wait outside the door for Ash to come out. She exist with Aisha, and I see the sweat glisten on some of her skin. The sun sets behind her as Aisha and her say her goodbye and Aisha drives away. Aisha shoots me a glance before she begins to drive and away, and Ash's head shoots around to look at me. It's all or nothing man.

I turn my head around after picking up what Aisha was putting down, if it isn't Mohawk boy. Well, Hawk that is.
I walk up to him with my hands on my hips.
"Hey I still wanted to apologize for earlier. Can I make it up to you somehow?" He asks in a less cocky manor that I was expecting.
"What? You're gonna try and race me again?" I ask referring to this morning.
He scratches the back of his neck, and begins to speak.
"Hey, it's not my fault you race dirty" as the word roll off his tongue he just looks at me in this way that makes me feel...intimidated, but not afraid. More of a respect kind of thing.
"Listen, it's your first day at school in a brand new town, you need to let lose and ease some of your stress." He says in a sincere, but slightly odd.
"Slow your roll I'm not tryna-" I say walking to my motorcycle.
"Woah woah I didn't mean it like that. Give me 20 minutes. Let me wash up and let me come pick you up, let me show you around. I promise you'll have fun." He says tilting his head, once again using his cocky tone,
"I don't know Hawk, my mom-" he cuts me off.
"Don't you trust me?" He asks giving me these eyes...I don't know if I should say no.
"Fine, but only because I genuinely know no one here...give me your number and I'll call you and tell you where to pick me up.." I say with slight hesitation in my voice. Aisha wouldn't be friends with someone who isn't a good person...right?
He nods and promises me once again I'll have a good time, with that we both jump on our bike and head off in opposite directions.
