The smell of gasoline and asphalt lingered faintly in Rory Quinn's memory, like a scar she couldn't erase. It always came back in flashes—a shattered windshield, the hollow echo of sirens, her dad's voice fading into silence. Life as she knew it had ended on that road, somewhere between the mangled metal and the ambulance lights. What came after was a blur of grief and aching emptiness, the kind that no amount of music or karate could fully drown out.

West Valley, with its endless sunshine and superficial charm, was supposed to be a fresh start. But fresh starts didn't come easily when you were stuck in the past. Her mom didn't speak much anymore, and Rory had learned not to ask. Instead, she threw herself into the things she could control—her band, her music, and the quiet rhythm of routine. She built walls, thick and unyielding, to keep the world at a distance.

Then came Miguel Diaz. The new kid at school with a shy smile and a strange sense of optimism that felt foreign in a place like this. He was the first to break through her walls, not with force but with kindness. It wasn't long before he introduced her to something that would change her life: Cobra Kai.

The dojo became more than just a place to learn how to fight. It became an outlet for her anger, her frustration, and all the emotions she couldn't quite put into words. Johnny Lawrence—rough around the edges but surprisingly understanding—saw something in her that no one else did. He pushed her to be stronger, faster, better, and for the first time in a long time, Rory started to feel alive again.

But with Cobra Kai came complications. Rivalries formed, friendships were tested, and the thin line between discipline and aggression blurred. Rory's journey wasn't just about fighting others; it was about fighting herself, her fears, and the pain she carried like a shadow. And as the stakes grew higher, she would have to decide who she wanted to be—a fighter, a musician, a friend, or something more.

In the end, it wasn't about winning or losing. It was about finding balance. About learning that sometimes, the hardest battles are the ones you fight within.

✩ 𝗗𝗜𝗦𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗜𝗠𝗘𝗥 : i do not own cobra kai nor its character or storyline, the only part i have contirbuted in are my ocs and their parts in the show, this fic is just for pure entertainment !

✩ 𝗧𝗪𝗦 : injuries, fighting, family issues, death, grief, blood, vandalism, intimacy, mental health, course language and anything else included in cobra kai

if any of these trigger you, you are welcome to leave at any time as i will most likely not be doing warnings at the start of chapters for the suspense, yk?

dts !!!
