The Commercial

The next morning

Brooks woke up and groaned before feeling something weighing on his chest. He opened his eyes and saw Tory, naked, sleeping (drooling) on his chest. He remembered she came over after work because she got off early and he said that they had to wake up early tomorrow so she could just sleep at his house and he'll take her with him.

A clever scheme. And it worked!

It was a bit awkward because Johnny was home too, but they made it work. Brooks slipped out from under her and kissed her forehead before laying on the ground and doing sit-ups and push-ups.

Tory felt her hard pillow was gone and woke up to see Brooks doing sit-up on the side, she smiled and stretched lazily, exposing her curves. Brooks caught a look and froze mid-rep as he looked at her in a daze. Tory yawned and said softly "Mmm Good?" Brooks nodded absent minded "Good." Tory leaned over the bed and kissed him before getting up and taking clothes out of her bag and dressing slowly.

Brooks felt awful when the clothes started covering everything up, he went back to his reps with an angry expression and grumbled "Stupid clothes.." Tory giggled and sat down on his bed, she crossed her slender legs and rested her elbow on her knee while propping her chin up on her hand as she watched Brooks with affection.

Brooks finished and got dressed in athletic wear before putting on sunglasses and grabbing his keys with a grin as he said "Stop for coffee on the way?" Tory nodded softly and followed along, bringing her bag along.

Brooks saw Johnny drinking in the kitchen and said "What's up, big man. Want a coffee?" Johnny said "Fuck coffee, get me a tall boy." Brooks finger pistoled him and said "No problem chief." Johnny chuckled and shook his head saying "Fucking kids nowadays.."

A while later

Brooks rolled up to the place and saw the rest of the group. He was driving the Stingray today. He got out of the car and locked the door before walking to the group. Miguel said "That was your car I saw this morning?!" Brooks nodded and said "Got it for only 2 grand, can you believe it?" Hawk said "I really don't believe it."

Brooks laughed and said "Me neither! Where's the old man?" Miguel pointed behind him, Brooks looked over and saw Johnny talking to Kreese. Brooks walked over and stuffed a paper bag in Johnny's hands before walking away and throwing his coffee in the garbage. Johnny smirked and Kreese said "Johnny, I have to say. Out of all these kids, your son, his girlfriend, Diaz, and that Hawk kid are the only ones with potential."

Johnny cracked open his beer and said "I know. Cobra Kai is different now. It's not like it used to be." Kreese sighed and shook his head saying "Only 3 of out the four have the killer instinct. Diaz is soft." Johnny was silent and looked at Kreese dangerously, Kreese raised his hands up and said "Am I wrong?" Johnny kept silent deciding to end this conversation as he shouted "Fall in!"

The class dropped their bags to the side and fell into rows. Johnny said "Look around you, you'll be mixing concrete for now. Go!" The class groaned and Brooks pulled Tory with him to a wheel barrel before starting. Miguel and Hawk took the wheel barrel next to them and Brooks said "Alright guys, just follow my lead. Mixing concrete is easy, all you need is the right amount of concrete powder and water."

Tory raised a brow and said "You know?" Brooks nodded and said "How could I not? I worked construction before. Let's start." Tory gave Brooks a sad look before getting a hose. Brooks grabbed two shovels and handed one to Miguel, Hawk grabbed the concrete powder bag and they got to work.

A while later

Brooks had his shirt wrapped around his head and he wiped the sweat off his forehead as he mixed the concrete in the wheel barrel. Johnny looked at everyone working and nodded as he said "Good!"

Suddenly a giant cement truck rolled into the lot and a guy got out of the cab. He spoke some words with Johnny before handing him the keys and walking away. Johnny called everyone over and made them fall in.

Johnny stood in front of the Cement truck and said "You think winning the All-Valley give you the right to goof off? Well I got news for you. Winning one championship don't mean swat! A true champion never stops training. You gotta keep moving forward, or else you'll get stuck. Just like the cement in this truck."

Johnny pointed to the barrel and said "If that drum doesn't turn, the cement will harden and get stuck. Is that what you want to happen to you?" The class shouted "No, Sensei!" Johnny nodded and said "Good. Then climb up, get inside and make it spin."

Brooks grinned and stepped forward. Tory said "Brooks! It's dangerous!" Brooks shrugged and said "We don't have much of a choice. Plus.." he paused and grinned as he added "I've never been in a cement truck before." before chuckling and climbing up the ladder. He looked at the hole and slipped inside without hesitation.

Johnny smiled and said "He can't do it al-" his words were cut off by a creaking and a loud growl. Everybody looked at the drum in shock as it slowly started spinning, before getting faster and faster. Miguel ran up the ladder and jumped in the hole, Hawk and Tory followed him.

The drum spun even faster as they all disappeared inside.

After a few dozen minutes

Johnny shouted "Alright! Enough! Get out!" The drum slowed down and the 4 got out looking like grey aliens, they looked at each other and chuckled as they jumped from the top and landed on the ground. Johnny looked at the rest and said "Who's next?"

Brooks looked over at Hawk and fixed his hair before saying "Yo. What's up. My name's Hawk." Hawk looked over and slicked his hair back as he said "Go fuck yourself, I'm Brooks." Brooks choked and the other three laughed.

A while later

Johnny lined them up and sprayed them all down with a water hose while saying "Good job today! Your parents would be proud too, if you told them. Which you won't. Are we clear?" The class said "Yes, Sensei!"

The next afternoon

Brooks was sitting next to a beach towel which had a Cobra Kai logo on it. Tory was lying down on her stomach next to him with a smile, soaking up the sun. Brooks was watching Hawk and Dimitri playing volley ball, while drinking a beer and smoking. He only had pitch black beat shorts on and he was sitting in a beach chair.

A trio of girls walked over and threw Brooks flirtatious looks. Dimitri walked over and rubbed his face with a Cobra Kai towel, Hawk walked over and heard one of the girls say "Wait are you a part of Cobra Kai?" Dimitri pointed at himself and said "Me? Oh yeah, the rumble in Reseda! I made the quarter finals but I gave my spot to someone else in the Dojo. You know, gotta give the others a chance."

The girls giggled and one of them looked at Brooks as she said "Well we were gonna go out on a boat. You guys are welcome to join us." Brooks grunted and said "Beat it, skanks." Tory laughed from the ground and looked up, propping herself up on her elbows and glaring at the three girls.

The girls' expressions froze and they quickly walked away.

Brooks chuckled and drank from his beer. Dimitri sighed and said "Why did I agree to come here." Brooks pointed and said "Because you're a lonely beanpole." as he threw a beer at Hawk, who caught it and thanked him.

Dimitri said "I'm not a lonely beanpole! I prefer to say secluded individual." Brooks laughed and said "Same difference, drop the Mr. Pibbs and drink a beer." as he threw a beer can at Dimitri's head. It bonk'd him in the head and he fell to the ground.

Brooks froze and touched his nose as he said "Hey Moon... Could you?" Moon smiled wryly and checked Dimitri's pulse before saying "He's alive." Everyone let out a breath of relief and Brooks looked around awkwardly before shouting "Miguel! Hey look Miguel is here! Look! Miguel Wow! What a handsome guy!"

Everybody turned to Miguel and Tory looked at Brooks' relieved expression before laughing and covering her face with her hands. Miguel sulked over and said "What's up." Brooks clapped and said "Speech! Speech! Speech!" Miguel was confused and Hawk said "Brooks knocked Dimitri out with a beer can."

Miguel laughed and shook his head, Hawk said "What's up, man? You still sulking about Sam? You gotta get over it." Miguel grunted and sighed, Brooks chimed in "She was way too high maintenance anyway." Miguel looked at him and he continued "Chubby, annoying, whiny, clingy, privileged, self-righteous, talks too much, over dramatic, ugly, rash, jumps to conclusions, annoying, selfish, gives up easy, rude, inconsiderate, bossy..."

Brooks went on and on and everyone was stunned. Tory smiled wryly and Miguel's face was pitch black, Hawk was on the ground laughing hard and Moon was embarrassed. Brooks paused and everyone thought he was done, Miguel opened his mouth but Brooks spoke again and said "Did I say annoying?"

Hawk lost it and burst into gut busting laughter, Tory said "Only 3 times." Brooks nodded and said "Not enough. In short, I really hate her. She's annoying, good riddance I'd say." as he drank the rest of his beer, crushed the can and threw it to the sand.

Tory looked at him and said "What about me?" Brooks was alarmed and looked around to see everyone looking away, Brooks cracked open another beer and said "Nah, you're perfect." Tory pouted and Miguel stirred up the pot as he said "Nah, I want to hear what you think about Tory."

Brooks sighed and said "You really want to know?" everybody nodded and Brooks took a deep breath before saying "Cute, caring, sexy, smart, funny, considerate, interesting, reliable, mature, strong, level headed, proud, selfless..."

Brooks started once again and Tory had a huge smile on her face. Miguel's face was black and he said "Okay, okay! I get it! Fuck!" Brooks chuckled and winked at Tory as he drank form his beer. Tory whispered in his ear "How many of those are true?" Brooks looked at her and a small smile slowly formed on his lips as he said "To me. They're all true."

Tory was stunned, she could hear the sincerity in his voice. She felt like crying, she was so happy. She tackled Brooks to the ground and kissed his lips. They rest clicked their tongues and focused back on the beach, Moon gave Hawk a look and Hawk smirked as he walked over.

A while later

Brook was stretching in the Dojo with Tory, Miguel, and Hawk. They were talking amongst each other when Aisha walked over and said "Did you guys see Sam's dad's commercial? He dissed Cobra Kai!" Brooks raised a brow and Aisha showed them the commercial.

Hawk cursed "What the fuck, man!" Brooks laughed and said "We gotta do something." Tory said "Let's just make a commercial ourselves." Miguel's eyes brightened up and he punched his palm as he said "That's genius!"

Brooks jumped up and said "Migs! let's do it. Aisha! Start rolling!" Aisha nodded and Miguel got with with a grin. Aisha pointed the camera at Brooks and Miguel and said "Go!"

Brooks looked at the camera and said "You want to learn karate? Join Cobra Kai!" Miguel kicked a wood board and broke it. Brooks said "Learn how to kick ass and take names. Fuck Miyagi-do!" Brooks swept his leg out and smashed a dummy into the wall before looking at the camera and saying "Learn from the best Dojo in the Valley. Tyler come here."

Tyler walked over and Brooks grabbed him saying "You see this skinny ass kid? Well, he's been a member since day one, show 'em what you got Tyler." Tyler kicked a board and broke it. Brooks kicked him in the face and looked at the camera as he said "Don't make the wrong decision. Become a Cobra today."

Aisha said "Cut!" Brooks helped Tyler up and said "Way to take the hit, Papa Smurf! You've graduated into your new name, Little demon." Tyler fist pumped and walked away. Miguel looked at Brooks with a dumbfounded expression. Brooks had a proud smile with his hands on his hips and said "What?"

Miguel shook his head and Tory laughed. Johnny walked out and said "What's going on in here?" Aisha looked over and said "We filmed a commercial, Sensei!" Johnny raised a brow and said "What? I was gonna do that. Show me." Aisha showed him the video and Johnny's face became black as his mouth twitched and he said "That's garbage. Just let me do it."

Kreese watched the video and chuckled as he said "Nice spirit, kids." Johnny waved and said "Get the Bonsai tree, were doing this for real."

A commercial later

Aisha said "And cut! Good job, Sensei!" Johnny nodded and said "Put the Cobra Kai logo at the end.. and make it chrome with thunderstruck playing under it." as he walked away. Aisha said "The rights to that song might be expensive!" Johnny said "No it's not, I already own it. It's on cassette in my car. Oh and put one of those hashbrown me too things in there, hashbrown team Cobra Kai or something. Send it to the Internet!"

Brooks laughed and Johnny went into the back room. Aisha felt her mouth twitch as she mumbled "It's hashtag..." Brooks burst out laughing and held his stomach with one hand and put the other on Miguel's shoulder, bending over and wheezing.
