"This is a mess" Halley was cooking dinner for her and Demetri that had came to hang out

"What is?" He asked from his place at the kitchen counter, he was focused on not cutting one of his fingers off while chopping something Halley had handed him

"Everything" she frowned as she moved around the kitchen "Mixing the dojos is a mess, Sam is a mess, I am a mess and this food is a mess" she finally stopped and stared at the way her friend was chopping the tomato

"You know I have no idea how to cook, I don't even know why you let me do this" he raised his hands that were soaked in the tomato's juices

"Just..Just let me" She replaced him and he went to wash his hands

"Why do you think everything is a mess?" he asked

"I don't think so, I know so" she nodded sure and looked at her best friend while still cutting the tomato "My uncle looks like he wants to kill Johnny 99% of the time he's talking, Sam is feeling pressured and stressed, and I haven't felt like myself" she frowned "And I don't know why I'm being so negative, I wasn't like this, I don't like being like this"

"Then don't be" he shrugged and Halley looked at him incredulously "No, hear me out" he raised one of his fingers in the air "You can't really do anything about the dojo's or Sam's feelings, you can do something about yours though" the brunette frowned analyzing what he said

"Actually...that's a pretty good advice, th- Shit!" Halley looked back down at the cutting board to see her finger bleeding

"Oh, god" Demetri panicked

"It's fine, nothing that hasn't happened before" she rushed to the sink to wash her hand, she was used to things like that, it wasn't the first time and it certainly wouldn't be the last

"That's why you don't look away from a knife when you're cutting stuff"

"It's fine"

"You could have cut your finger off"

"But I didn't" Halley rolled her eyes at her friend's hysterics "See, now who's the negative one?"

"I've always been the negative one" Demetri said matter of a factly

"Ready, bow!" All of the students listened to Johnny

"Sensei Lawrence and I have the same goal of preparing you for the tournament" Daniel started

"But we have different ways of getting you there" Johnny continued

"We realized teaching you opposing viewpoints at the same time can be a little confusing"

"So we discussed it and came up with a solution. We're gonna divide and conquer" Halley frowned, she did thought it was gonna be difficulties to mix styles, but she didn't thought it was impossible, the real problem was the still rough feelings the two sensei's still held for each other "Eagle Fang trains out front"
