"Welcome back sir." A butler said as he opened the door Terry. "Thank you." Terry smiled. As he walked through the hallway's everyone seemed to have a look on there face. It seemed to be a somewhat happy look. "Margret!" Terry yelled. Margret was Terry's secretary. She helped him with all his dirty work. She knew nearly everything about him. She was almost like a second mother to Terry. "Yes Mr Silver." She answered as she walked into the room. "What is wrong with everyone. They look so." Terry paused "Happy?" He continued. "Well sir have you looked at yourself." Margert said "Excuse me? What's that supposed to mean?" Terry questioned "You look like a walking ball of joy. Non stop smiling and not in a mood for a change." Margret answered
Terry chuckled. "Is it the girl by any chance?" She asked "Maybe, maybe not." Terry said "Well if so, I think she would be some good for you. I have never seen you so happy!" Margret exclaimed "Well she's definitely worth a lot." Terry said thinking about everything that has happened in only this short period of time. But he think's back to when he saw Lexi limping and in pain. He was enraged by this. His expression quickly changed. "Margret, get me Mike, Snake and Dennis immediately!" Terry said raising his voice. "But, sir.." Margret tried to add before Terry interrupted. "No buts I want them here now!"

Terry stood outside next to his pool waiting for the boys to arrive.
"Mr silver the boys are here." A butler said leading the boys outside "Good! leave us alone. Make sure no one comes outside." Terry stated "Yes sir." The man said before going inside and shutting the doors behind him. Making the three boys confused. "Why did you bring us here, we doing important things." Mike spalt. Terry walked over to him. towering over him. Making Mike step back but was nothing but water behind him.
"And what important things would you be doing?" Terry asked "Training and stuff." Mike answered "And when you said you went to get Daniel to sign the paper. Did you forget to mention other details?" Terry questioned getting closer to mike. Making him nervous. "Well I mean we started this fight and this girl got involved so I dealt with it." Mike said "And by that did you fracture her ribs and chock her." Terry asked raising his voice "uh well yea but she was in the way. She was just being pathetic. This made Terry overly angry. Terry stepped forward before shoving Mike into the pool.
When Mike rose up. Terry knelt down and pushed him back underwater. "Hey stop!" Snake yelled "What are you doing!" Dennis yelled. Terry still had his hand on Mikes head whiles he turned round to the others. "Do you want to be next. If not then I suggest you stay quite. Terry let go of Mike's head.
"Have you had enough." Terry asked "Yes! Yes! I'm sorry I wont hurt her again." Mike yelled before getting out the water. "That's what I thought, none of you touch Lexi or else next time I wont be so nice. And Daniel, Do whatever to make sure he signs just don't touch Lexi." "Yes but what are you going to do with her." Mike asked whiles shivering "That's my business but you stay out of it. now get out of my sight!"

Daniel and Lexi both walked into the bonsai shop. "I saw you with Mr Silver yesterday. Kissing." Daniel said whiles Lexi blushed "Oh! You saw that." Lexi asked "Yeah but it doesn't matter. I'm happy your happy." Daniel paused "After everything that has happened." Lexi smiled "Thanks, yeah Terrys one of the nicest people I have meant. I think it was meant to be." They both giggled as Lexi pretended to fall as Daniel caught her.
"So has anything happened with these guys again." Lexi asked "No, but I went to bring the tournament application to the police station. As I walked in, they started laughing at me. Finally the sergeant said "Son, we'll look into it." Daniel stated "Well I hope they can do something. I told Terry and he said he can help. He fought in the war and learnt karate so he must be good!" Lexi said "Yeah, he seems nice." Daniel added
"Hey before we go anywhere, I think we should ask Mr Miyagi before we try and find his bonsai tree." Lexi said "I don't have a choice. If he doesn't sell this tree, he loses the business. He's broke. His social security can barley cover the expenses of his rowboat. This tree is like money in a bank." Daniel stated "Oh so we are robbing a bank now!" Lexi laughed "Well I guess we have to get it then." Lexi said
~
"It's a long way down there." Daniel said "You know what I think?" Lexi asked "What?" Daniel questioned "I think when the tide come's in, the ocean fills up the bottom down there." Lexi said "Yeah Mr Miyagi sure knows how to pick em." Daniel said. Lexi chuckled "yeah, no kidding! Anyways how are we supposed to find Mr Miyagi's tiny little tree in all of this!" Lexi asked
"He told me it was halfway down the steepest cliff where it would catch the first ray of sun." Daniel explained. Lexi looked around with her pair of binoculars. "Wait! That must be it! I found it!" Lexi said "Are you sure?" Daniel questioned "Yeah! It's beautiful. It's like the one on the back of our gi's !" Lexi exclaimed
"How are we going to get down there?" Daniel asked "You leave that to me. I've done something like this before." Lexi explained
~
Daniel stood there ready to go down. "you sure you understand everything?" Lexi questioned "Yeah I got it. You feed the rope through here and I hold this back and pray to got." Daniel laughed "Daniel this is serious, now are you sure you want to do this?" Lexi asked "Yeah I wanna do this." Daniel said
"Just lean. Okay you got it. Don't you worry . Just sit back. Just lean back." Lexi said encouraging Daniel as he started going down the cliff's whiles Lexi was getting strapped in. "Ha, this is almost fun." Daniel chuckled. "I'm coming okay? Just keep going." Lexi said. "This isn't to hard. You're a pretty good teacher." Daniel stated "Thanks." Lexi replied
"Daniel look out!" Lexi yelled as Daniel lost his grip of the cliff. "I'm coming Daniel, are you okay?" Lexi asked "Yeah I'm fine." Daniel replied "Hold on! Don't move. Stay there, I'm coming." Lexi yelled to Daniel. Lexi climbed down the cliff towards Daniel.
"Okay. I got you. I got you. Put both hands on the rope. put your feet against the rocks and push out. I got you . Push out!" Lexi told him as Daniel pushed out getting grip and getting back up. "There you go, you got it! You sure your okay?" Lexi asked "No I'm fine, don't worry about it." "God, It's a lot steeper than it looks from up there huh?" Lexi questioned "Yeah, you sure you've done this before." Daniel asked "Yeah, but not from this high up." Lexi replied "Great!" Daniel joked
~
"Ha well that took long enough!" Lexi exclaimed. "Yeah but it really is beautiful." Both of them agreed. Daniel took the tree. "Wont it die?" Lexi asked. She never listened to Mr Miyagi talk about the trees, she found it rather boring and would rather do something else, while Daniel seemed to be quite intrigued and always helped Mr Miyagi with the Bonsai trees. "The tree will be fine. the most important thing is to pack the roots well." Daniel explained.
As Daniel tried to tie the tree he drops it. "Daniel! The tree, it's in the water!" Lexi exclaimed "I've got to get! It's going to get washed away!" Daniel yelled. The both of them tried to get down the cliff as quickly as they can before the tree gets washed away. Daniel and Lexi unattached themselves from the rope to quickly get the tree.
"Lexi" Hurry get the canteen, quick!" Daniel exclaimed while Lexi got the canteen from her back. "we gotta wash the roots off. The salt water will kill them." Daniel Said "Don't worry Mr Miyagi will know what to do, but we have to get outta here before the water get's us too!" Lexi exclaimed "Yeah, your right." Daniel said before they both headed towards there ropes.
"Wait! Daniel where are the rope's?" Lexi asked before a voice interrupted her. "LaRusso how you doing? Head up Danny-boy. Here's something you forgot!" Mike yelled throwing down the tournament sign up sheet. "this isn't funny, let the ropes down!" Daniel demanded "First sign the application." Mike said. "Screw you man!" Daniel yelled
"See, I think you got it backwards, buddy boy. I'm not the one who is screwed here. Now I figure the tide's gonna come in about 5 minute." Mike explained "I hope you brought a life raft!" Snake said making the three boys laugh.
"Daniel what do we do, without the rope we are dead!" Lexi said. "You want me to sign it. Fine I'll sign it." Daniel yelled "We'll see who's smiling after. Your going to be dead meat." Mike exclaimed
Daniel gave in, he knew these guys. If he did not sign it they would leave him and Lexi here to die. "Here! I signed it. You got what you want. No get us out of here!" Daniel shouted "Alright, pull them up." Mike ordered.
"Wait!" Snake added "What now?" Mike demanded "You hear what Silver said, If we hurt Lexi again. He would kill us!" Snake exclaimed "One. We didn't hurt her. In fact we didn't even touch her. Two. He needs us, without us the plan will be ruined!" Mike explained "But you saw what Silver did to you earlier. I'm not really in the mood to be killed!" Dennis exclaimed "Well he wont find out" Mike said with a mischievous smirk appearing on his face." Hey! Are you going to pull us up or what?" Lexi shouted "Right away princess!" Mike sarcastically shouted back making Lexi roll her eyes.
Finally after what felt like forever, Lexi and Daniel reached the top edge before the boy's stopped pulling. "Hey keep pulling or we are going to end up falling back down." Daniel demanded "First, the application." Mike asked "Fine here, now pull us up." Daniel said as he pulled the application out his pocket and passing it to Mike. "Good and don't even think about backing out, because then I will be really pissed. And this, well this will all sound like a happy memory, compared to what I will do to you." Mike exclaimed "And what we'll do to her." Mike said as he pointed towards Lexi making her frown.
"Now pull us up!" Daniel shouted "What will you give me." Mike asked "What do you mean I already gave you the application?" Daniel said "Yeah, well the stakes just went up. Give me the tree." Mike demanded "Daniel, no don't." Lexi shouted "Mike let go of Lexi's rope before grabbing hold of it again. "Stop! Stop! Fine, just hold us. Don't let go." Daniel yelled, as he detached the bonsai tree from himself. "Here. Please be careful with it!" "Daniel, Lexi?" Mike asked "Make a wish!" Mike said before braking the arm of the bonsai tree. "Nooooo." Daniel and Lexi both screamed
~
Lexi laid there on her very uncomfortable bed, It was a pull out sofa since it was a last minute thing staying at Mr Miyagi's. But yet she never felt comfortable. Even at Daniels house, him and his mum was so nice and welcoming but yet were not her real family. But with Terry she felt safe. She had barley known him more than a week but yet felt safe with him. Comfortable with him. He was so different to all her old boyfriends who were so toxic and ended up with Daniel fighting them. But Terry was different. And one of the many reasons was that Terry was 12 years older than her. But age is just a number.
she wondered what Terry was doing right now. He seemed mysterious. She had told him a lot about herself but he had not shared much about what he does and his past. But I guess that conversation was for another day. She could not wait what was going to come. but the only question is. What will happen next?
