chapter 1, barcelona
We finally arrive in Barcelona, ready for the Sekai Takai after a gruesome journey from California. Our senseis lead us to the Sekai Takai arena, when we enter there is an eruption of claps echoing in the arena. We then are lined up in a straight horizontal line, directly opposite us is Cobra Kai with an empty spot. Then, I see a familiar figure slowly walk over. Was that who I thought it was? No way. Tory? My jaw drops, I turn to stare at Robby, his eyes are completely locked on Tory, glancing at her sadly. The presenter is yapping about the Sekai Takai, but I drown that out.
"Did you know?" I ask Robby,
"No, I didn't." Robby replies, clearly feeling betrayed.
Then I hear an eruption of claps after the announcer finishes his speech, I clap out of politeness. Next to Tory, I see a Korean guy who seems to be the male captain for Cobra Kai with messy hair and a smug smirk on his face, he then notices me staring at him and his smirk grows even wider. I quickly look away and feel flustered, now hes gonna think I was checking him out. Sure, I was, but it's embarrassing he knows that.
Then, we're in the hotel lobby. Me, Robby, Miguel, Demetri, Devon, Sam, Hawk.
Robby stares at the boys, "Which room do you guys want?"
"Uh, I'll. I'll go with you." Demetri stutters.
"Really I figured Robby and I would-" Hawk interrupts Miguel, "No, I'll bunk with El Serpiente." He replies confidently, putting his hand on Miguels shoulder.
"Besides, you fart in your sleep." He adds while giving a look to Demetri.
"And he who observed it served it, by the way." Demetri pettily replies.
"Whoever said the rhyme did the crime."
"You just rhymed."
"You said the rhyme first."
"But you also rhymed." They bicker.
Devon looks over to me and Sam, "Thank God we aren't boys."
Sam smiles and I let out a soft chuckle,
"Demetri and Hawk are always bickering over the tiniest things, they're so unserious." I laugh.
Me and Devon both then notice Sam seems distracted, like she has something on her mind.
"Are you okay?" I worriedly ask her.
"How could Tory go back to Cobra Kai? I thought things had changed." Sam replies, clearly annoyed by this betrayal but also hurt.
Then, I hear an unfamiliar voice talking to the boys, so curiously, me, Devon and Sam walk over.
"Whoa." That boy I was checking out earlier sarcastically says, walking over to our group with the other Cobra Kais, excluding Tory.
"So you're the famous Miyagi-Do. We have heard about you, but I do not know why. You do not look like much." The boy cockily scoffs.
"Yeah?" Hawk confidently walks over to him.
"You'll see better when you step on the mat." Hawk adds onto his comment.
"Come on guys, this isn't worth it." I put my hand on Hawk's shoulder and sneak a glance at this mystery boy.
"Kiara's right, just forget about them. They're just any other dojo here." Miguel adds reassuringly.
We then walk away slowly, then Tory budges past our group. Robby goes after her, "Tory, hey wait."
The boy and his friends shove our group, the boy going into Demetri's face and doing some bizarre thing that scared Demetri, the boy then walks over to me.
"Do not think I didn't see you checking me out earlier." He smugly replies, with a massive smirk on his face.
"I was not checking you out, I was simply trying to see my competition." I reply nonchalantly, crossing my arms.
"Whatever you say, Kiara." He smirks and walks away with his little group. I watch him walk away, completely flustered by this interaction. But I'm not here to get a boyfriend, fling whatever that was. I'm here to win.
Then, we're at an aquarium with beautiful scenery. We watch the captains take their photo. We hear multiple shutter clicks.
"Everybody smile and say Barcelona." The photographer states.
"They really wanna go out their way to show how special the captains are, huh?" I turn to the remaining people of my group as we watch Sam and Robby take their photos.
"Yeah, Im getting that." Miguel bluntly replies, with a hint of annoyance in his tone.
Then we see a lot of Captains talking, not all exactly friendly either. I see Robby sneaking multiple glances at Tory, with a short brunette girl next to Tory staring at Robby and talking to Tory.
I stare at the cocky boy again, just to realise he's been staring at me the whole time, so I quickly look away out of embarrassment, hoping to avoid him as much as possible.
After the captain photos are done, I wonder around for a bit, then I want to go find the others. I then find myself in some room where that cocky boy's in the middle, yapping about how no one beat's his kick or something like that. I make my way over to my group.
Then, the boy walks over to our group.
"Team USA. Everyone knows America's best at everything, right?" He smirks, then he turns to look at me then he winks at me.
The crowd erupts in laughter after his little America comment, he then manages to get everyone chanting "USA". Hawk then gives in and begins to put the chalk on his shoe.
"Are you really the best your dojo has to offer?" Another korean boy from Cobra Kai says.
"Im tough enough to kick your punk ass." Hawk smirks.
"Please, you are not even captain." That cocky boy replies.
"Where is he?"
"Im right here." Robby literally appears out of nowhere, then he manages to get the group to leave and we slowly make our way out then that damn cocky boy just has to make another comment.
"You always walk away from challenge? Or. Is it because girlfriend is on our team?" The boy smirks, Robby turns around glaring at him.
Hawk then hands Robby the chalk.
"What, I gotta kick above that line?" Robby points and asks.
"What, too easy for you? Okay, let's make bet then. You kick, then I kick. You win, you get my room. I win, I get your room." The boy replies.
"Youre on." Robby glares, not breaking eye contact for a single second.
"Robby." Miguel says, sounding visibly annoyed the boy's words got to him.
"Maybe it's not a good idea to gamble away your room on the first day Robby, just forget this." I reply.
"You always have to get involved, Kiara?" The boy then stares intensely at me, with a smirk, I glare at him and then he smiles and looks away.
"Dude you're gambling our rooms away, isn't that like a team decision?" Demetri says, clearly knowing this wont work out like Robby hopes it to.
"Im not gambling, Im getting us an extra room."
"Yeah sure." I scoff.
I walk out of the room, not wanting to see this stupid nonsense any further. I just wonder off into the aquarium, staring at the fish. After a few minutes, I see that cocky boy in my peripheral vision slowly walk up to me. I turn around and look up at him, from afar, he doesn't look that tall. Up close, the height difference is extremely visible. I notice his compression shirt and those biceps. Damn.
"Checking me out again?" He smirks, then flexes his bicep.
I roll my eyes, "No."
"My performance back there did not impress you? " He asks, while leaning on the glass of the aquarium slightly.
"Oh please, you all were just kicking. There's nothing impressive about that." I reply.
"You are stubborn, huh? I like a challenge." He smirks.
"What's your name?" I blurt out, he seems a bit confused I changed the topic but he answers me anyway.
"Kwon Jae-Sung." He replies.
"Goodbye, Kwon. See you at the first round." I reply bluntly and walk off, as I walk off, I smile to myself.
