Ex Assholes

Depuis le début
                                    

I was happy Miguel was sticking up for Robby, that gave me confidence that this truce was real and not just for show in front of me and my dad. Our new sensei Chosen whistled loudly, calling all of us in. We all fell in, ready to listen to our new teacher.

“Line up!” he shouted a few other things in Japanese that we didn’t understand 

“So, where are our dad’s?” I asked

“Not here” Chosen dismissed “Today, you train with me” jeez this guy is intense. He shouted something else is Japanese that we didn’t know “Attention” we all stood up straight as boards, another things in Japanese “Bow” he sighed, we all did so respectfully “Cobra Kai, gaining ground. We must prepare, come” Chosen walked over to a table of weapons 

“Oh this is gonna be badass, check out that throwing knife” Mitch whispered

“Now we learn about Yanbaru Kuina” Chosen continued 

“What is that, like… some top secret karate move? Like a throat rip” Chris grinned with dramatic demonstration

“No, it is bird” Chosen muttered “In English, called Okinawa rail. Endangered, cannot fly”

“Hence endangered” Demetri nodded

Chosen presented a carton of eggs “So there are the uh, real eggs?” Miguel asked

“No, Trader Joe’s, three twenty nine” Chosen explained, getting annoyed with us “Take egg” we all walked up and grabbed an eggs from the carton, handing some out to the kids in the back

“So, what do we do with them?” Sam asked

“Yunbaru Kuina must protect egg” He kept on explaining “From Kume Shima habu, poison snake. You must do same” Chosen took a sand timer and flipped it “Begin your preparation”

“What are we protecting them from?” Robby clarified

“From me” Chosen grinned, picking up the fighting spikes I can’t remember the name of for the life of me, and going some cool move, that’s terrifying

“I think that means go guys!” I shouted, instantly running away

Everyone else dispersed, going to take care of their egg in their own unique egg. For some reason that felt all wrong to me, but I was too distracted trying to figure out what to do with my egg. Chris and Mitch ever fire and ice, choose one, sit on top of their eggs like a real bird (Mitch) and climb up in a tree (Chris). “I see many little birds!” Chosen called out around the garden “Spread in wind!”

“You should put it behind your back” Sam told Anthony “Leaves your hands free to defend”

“Okay but, I don’t even know how to use my hands yet” Anthony reminded

“What? Mr. Larusso never taught you wax on wax off?” I gasped, making Sam roll her eyes

“Actually I-i-I paid a guy to wash the cars, it- it doesn’t matter. I’m starting at square zero” Anthony sighed

“Well, think of it this way. You used your mind to outwit the obstacle” Sam added an idea

“That's what-”

“That’s what Miyagi-Do’s all about” Robby came from nowhere, walking up behind me 

“Show off” I rolled my eyes

“Hey” Sam smiled over at the both of us

“Hey” Robby nodded

“Deja vu having you back here” Sam sighed “Although, seeing you two together is definitely new”
