author's note ⋆｡𖦹 ✮ ‧₊˚✩彡

hiiiii this is my first fic for any CK character so i'm kinda nervous. hope u like it. i started a pt. 2 already bc i just love axel but i also wanna write him in different scenarios as well! will open my requests asap :)

c.w.

s6pt2 spoilers, drinking.

being in barcelona was a dream. you were grateful that you were able to tag along with the miyagi do's. sensei larusso and sensei lawerence always liked you, especially johnny. being miguel's best friend is a privilege you were happy to have. sure, it came with a lot of drama but it also came with a protector, a group of friends, and some karate skills.

plus, being miyagi do's water girl wasn't a bad deal for being flown out to barcelona.

you were enjoying being on the inside of all the events while not needing to fight. the first couple of rounds you seen were intense. being around all these powerful people made you a little nervous but you had hope nothing terrible would happen like the rumble at west valley. these weren't angry teenagers fueled off drama and angst, they're athletes. aspiring professionals.

after miyagi do managed to stay in the game by the skin of their teeth, everyone was getting ready to go out. sam was talking your and devons ear off about spain and all the things her and miguel were going to do in their freetime when there was a knock at the door. you got up from your spot at the vanity and opened it to see miguel.

he was distressed, foot anxiously tapping with a hand through his hair. "is sam in here?"

"yeah, sam." you waved her over to the door. "you good, miggy?" miguel opened his mouth to speak and his eyes immediately welled up with tears. "what's wrong?"

"my mom..." his voice shook as he took sam in his arms for a hug. "something's wrong with the baby, i need to go back home." he spoke, voice muffled by sams hair.

"of course." you nodded. "is there anything we can do?"

he only shook his head and hugged sam harder.

"miguel." johnny said from the end of the hallway and beckoned him.

miguel let sam go and gave you a quick but tight hug before taking off. you and sam share an uneasy look before going back inside the room.

"miguel's going back home? sensei too?" devon asked and the two of you nodded.

"i need a drink." you said, grabbing your purse.

***

at the bar, everyone just seemed to take the gloominess with them. knowing miguel was struggling made it impossible to have fun.

"what are we going to do now that miguel's gone?" devon asked hawk and demitri.

"we could always have y/n take his spot?" hawk said, giving you a look over like he was sizing you up.

you scoffed. "yeah right, i wasn't even good enough to fight for a spot in the sekai tekai. getting my ass kicked on the world stage isn't on my bucket list."

"i'm serious." hawk said. "if they can't get kenny, you're next up. so don't black out this time." hawk pointed at your drink, remembering the time you got blackout drunk and threw up all over the inside of his car at one of moons parties.

"i'd prefer drunk y/n over kenny any day." demitri started. "at least she didn't shit her pants."

"oooookay." you stood up, taking your empty glass with you. "i'm getting another drink." you saw the way they were looking at you. "my last one. i don't think you guys will need me but if you do, i'll be ready. i promise."

you walked over to the bar, where sam and robby were sitting. "hey."

"hey." sam said and robby only nodded.

"what's with him?" you noticed robby's bad mood as soon as you walked up.

"maybe you can help." sam stood up, taking her cup with her. "i'm gonna go sit with the others for a sec, see if miguel still has service."

"okay." you nodded, taking sams spot at the bar. "what's wrong?"

"everything." robby sighed. "i need a drink."

you wanted to tell him not to, that it wouldn't solve anything but you knew that he already knew.

"get one, whatever you want. i got us for the first round." you took some cash from your pocket. "hey, can i get a mai tai and..."

"a rum and coke. double. please." robby asked and the bartender nodded, getting to work on your drinks.

"it's one of those nights, huh?" he only nodded, peering at the other edge of the bar for a moment before scoffing and turning back to you.

"yeah." you looked down to where he had just looked, to see tory and kwon sitting besided each other. kwon had an arm around her shoulders and was whispering something in her ear.

"i'm sorry robby. she's gonna come around, i know she is."

"i don't know. she's doing better without me." robby took a sip of his drink and looked down to where tory was sitting. kwon had separated from her but was still close. "and i'm here." he looked at his drink. "thanks by the way."

"it's not good to drink alone. especially when you're down." you nodded, taking a sip of your drink. "also, i missed out on the robby who smoked weed and skated everywhere. i hear he was kinda fun."

"i still skate everywhere." he said with a small laugh. "just not a skate rat anymore."

"yeah, you're the captain now." you gently nudged his shoulder. "i don't know how that feels exactly, the pressure, but i do know that you're gonna make everyone back home proud. especially tory."

"i hope so." he took another drink and eventually, his was gone.

"i know so. she's been watching every one of your fights."

robby cringed a little bit. "knowing i've lost every one of my fights definitely makes me feel lame."

"you're still in it. there's still tomorrow." you took another sip of your drink.

robby nodded. "i'm gonna go to the bathroom."

you nodded in return, looking over your shoulder to see hawk on his phone, sam and devon talking, and demitri dancing with a girl. when you turned back to where robby was sitting, kwon was in his seat.

"hi."

"hello." you were playing with your straw.

"what are you drinking?"

"a mai tai." your responses were dry but kwon wasn't backing off.

"do you want to dance?" he offered his hands but you shook your head, backing away a little.

"no, thanks."

"what? you're only miyagi do's little girlfriend? not for the rest of us?" kwon leaned in closer. "i can treat you better than keene."

"leave me alone, kwon."

"hey." robby's voice came from behind you.

kwon only scoffed and backed up. "someone's waiting for me anyways." he stood up. "i promise i'll keep her warm tonight, keene." he said before leaving the bar.

"are you okay?"

"i need some air." you stood up and went outside, leaving your friends at the bar. you felt bad for leaving robby alone but you couldn't be there anymore.

you felt the effects of the alcohol as you walked down to the beach. your head was spinning. you stopped and took a seat near the shore, sighing as you looked out to the water.

and then you saw him.

axel kovacevic.

he had been destroying his opponents on the mat. nobody's been able to land a point on him. he was one of the strongest competitors. he was stoic too, especially now as he was practicing his kata about 10 feet away from you. in the moonlight, by the ocean, with the alcohol making your perspective soft, he wasn't robotic. he was focused. until he caught you staring at him.

you made eye contact and immediately looked down at your lap. you waited about 5 seconds to check if he was still looking and he was full on staring. it was awkward. he wasn't looking at you as a threat, but with curiosity.

the two of you observed each other for a silent minute before you decided to say something. "hi." you waved and he didn't say anything in return. "you're axel right?" he nodded. "i'm y/n. i liked the kata you were doing."

"i'm not supposed to speak with opponent." he turned away from you and you stood up.

"i'm not your opponent. i'm not even fighting in the tournament. more like, emergency backup." you smiled, watching the corner of his lips tug upwards.

"why aren't you fighting?" he asked curiously, taking a step closer to you.

"i'm not really a fighter like my friends are." you shrugged. "you're great though."

"i'm alright." he leaned over to pick up his shirt and revealed bruises on his back. the sight made you wince.

"what happened?"

"bo staff competition."

"nobody has been able to land a point on you yet." you looked at him and he had a sort of an embarrassed look. "i know about... your sensei. one of my friends saw. it's not right. you should be out with your team, not practicing alone."

"there's always time for practice. my sensei wants me to be the best. it's because of him i never lose."

"doesn't make it right." you responded. "your entire dojo is pretty great though, i have to admit."

"you're pretty." axel stopped himself. your face was on fire and so was his. "your dojo's pretty good too."

"thanks. do you wanna walk with me? back to the hotel?" you asked, rocking on your heels. axel looked around and nodded and you both took off into the night.

"how long have you been fighting for?" you asked.

"ever since i was a kid. what about you?"

"only a couple years. after one of my friends got really hurt, i decided i had to get serious about learning. he had been teaching me some stuff but when it happened i just had to join a dojo. it was actually... cobra kai."

axel looked at you in disbelief. "you were in cobra kai?"

"yeah. after miguel got hurt, i was really angry and i took it out on everyone."

"miguel..."

"he was the original cobra kai." you remembered when miguel excitedly showed you his first gi. "it's a long story though. those sensei's, silver. they put me and all my friends through hell. so i know what its like to have a sensei do anything to make you the best, even hurt you."

axel couldn't say anything, he could only look at you with wonder. "is that why you don't fight anymore?"

"kind of. i don't know. i'm just not as angry as i used to be. i feel like my anger was the only reason i was ever good and i don't wanna live like that." you shrugged.

"i understand." he nodded. "i love karate but i don't want to be a robot all the time." you shook your head and opened your mouth to speak but he interrupted. "i hear what everyone says. they call me a monster, a machine. sometimes i just want to be axel." you nodded, this time you didn't have anything to say. "that's why i like to travel. i get to disappear in each city whenever i'm not fighting."

"how many cities have you been to?"

"a lot." he chuckled and listed all the cities and countries he's been to. you listened in awe. "what about you?"

"i've never really left california." you responded. "but after being here, i'd love to see everything. the sagrada familia makes me feel small but not in a scary way. it's like a monument to the great things humans can do."

"how cute!" a familiar voice interrupted. "little rival team playtime, huh?" kwon and another cobra kai came from around the corner. "thought you were only for miyagi do to play with."

"and i thought i told you to leave me alone." you tried to push past them but they blocked the path. you could smell the alcohol on kwons breath as he spoke. "just let us go."

"what's the magic word?" kwon asked, leaning in closer to you.

"move." you responded bluntly, not wanting anything else to do with this.

"wrong." kwon scoffed and shook his head. he glanced over your shoulder and you were sure someone was behind you.

"we just want to go back to the hotel." you weren't planning on giving kwon what he wanted.

"okay. you can go, only if you say please." kwon was in your face again, smug smile plastered on his face.

before you knew it, the other cobra kai kicked axel. it barely affected him as he shot into action to defend the both of you.

"come on, hit me. show me why they brought you here." kwon tapped his cheek and you were about to raise your arm when you were grabbed from behind. you elbowed whoever grabbed you multiple times before being able to slither out and kick him across the face. at the same time, axel shoved the other cobra kai into kwon. "okay come on. i'll take you both."

the sound of sirens took everyone but kwon out of the fight. he was still pressing axel and had to be taken away by his teammates.

"come on, let's go."

the two of you bolted back to the beach. after catching your breath, you started laughing a little.

"what?" axel asked.

"that guy kicked you and you barely moved. you have a strong base."

axel looked away from you, a smile spreading across his face. "thanks. that was a nice roundhouse."

"thanks, axel." you smiled at him and then looked out at the ocean. when you looked back at him, he was staring. no, he was admiring you. "what?"

axel said nothing, he only reached to tuck a piece of hair behind your ear. his hand brushed against your face and you leaned into the touch.

and then he kissed you.

and you kissed him back. it was perfect. he was cradling your face with one hand, pulling you closer by your waist with the other. his mouth moved against yours softly and romantically. it was sweet. he didn't want anything other than to kiss you and you were happy to oblige and let yourself be putty in his hands.

but then your head started spinning again. you pulled away abruptly, taking a deep breath as you came up for air. the alcohol, the running, and the kissing were all making you dizzy. "axel i-."

"i'm sorry, i should go. already after curfew." axel took off running down the beach.

"wait, axel!" you called out after him but he was gone. you felt terrible as you went back inside the bar to meet with your team. everyone was already heading out and robby was nowhere to be seen. you figured he had went back to the hotel and hoped he would be fine. everyone else on the other hand would be dealing with their drama for a minute, including yourself.

Tory breaking up with Robby using Sam’s words because Sam said she would at least respect it if she owned her choice to be there

VS

Robby hearing Miguel’s voice in his head when he needs to have faith in himself because Miguel is the one who makes him believe in himself

[andygo34]

I need all the possible fanfics, dabbles, oneshots where Daniel arrives in time but is stabbed (and not necessarily dies but is seriously injured). Tbh, I just want to see everyone worried about him.😆😆😆

-I want Johnny feeling guilty for not being there with him in the middle of all that shit ("why did I have to go after Kreese?")

-More fics about Silver's reaction to seeing his Danny-boy hurt (he loves messing with him, he doesn't want him dead)

-Distressing fics about the Miyagi-Do boys seeing one of their Senseis hurt to THAT level (poor Sam, if something happens to her dad, she just 😭😭)

-Amanda and Anthony watching from the television.

-Redemption fic for Kwon, not knowing what to do as he truly understands how far he's come.

-Chozen seeing his Ride or Die that way (reminding him a little of how Daniel turned out after his fight with Silver)😭

-Kim would blame Kreese, she just wanted to bring honor to her grandfather's Dojo, not for one of her students to almost become a murderer.

-Kreese would still be Kreese, I imagine.

Among others, I just know that I need things like that.

[starglaee]

I’m back. Let’s, um… do this? Don’t look under the cut if you don’t want spoilers.

1. Well, my number one wish was denied. Great.

2. So, no, Robby and Tory’s arcs strongly revolved around each other as I expected. I was hoping they’d show more of Johnny hyping up Robby since he’s the deadbeat father of 17 years. But no, they just talk about it and have Johnny make up with Miguel. Also they gave Robby a plot where he is SA’d and where it’s never acknowledged as such but rather as cheating. Then he has the whole team against him until Miguel finally steps up and admits once more that Robby should be the one to lead them since he won the 1v1 in 6.5.

Then poor poor Tory. Aside from episode 6 with Sam and Devon, that one scene with Sensei Kim and Kreese, and the bottle cap she holds in the scene when CK is about to leave for home, her mom is never outwardly mentioned again. So not only does she not grieve but her mom (and her brother!) are forgotten about somehow? Did her team even know she was grieving? This easily pissed me the fuck off.

Also what future will everyone have now that they were on live TV participating in an international karate brawl that killed someone? (RIP Kwon)

3. Did they get along? I guess? But it wasn’t for five consecutive episodes. So they failed. I’m not even going to hope for it in part 3 atp. So disappointing for a show having them team up 2 seasons ago.

4. So Eli was a fine fighter. Him and Demetri pissed me off, but I think that was the point of their story in this part. They were entertaining, sure. Still, I hated how they both turned on Kenny so easily. I miss Hawk’s fighting ngl. I know that’s the cliche thing to say but maybe it would remind the writers how good this character is as a fighter and person. I’m less upset at what they did with him in this part than in part 1, though, so maybe that’s a win? They’re doing the bare minimum for me haha.

5. Oh, poor me back a week ago. “I want Kwon to have character development.” No. They wanted to make him a 2D character that dies. I’m assuming he’s a plot device to be a wake up call in part 3 for all the insane karate people. But like. I wanted to know his home life, what motivates him, why he’s so easily molded by Kreese, and more. Ugh. I can’t even think about it too much because then I’ll be sad because I had hopes for him. I should’ve known better.

6. So she was just a stereotypical bitch. Istg the writers have never talked to a girl before tf. At a certain point the sassy influencer and karate star became all we knew about her. Then I hated her when it was implied that she raped Robby (fight me bc there was no consent). Anyway. No hate to the actress because she may have been likeable had she been written differently and had the creators and writers not been sexist for the thousandth time.

7. Tory: traumatized with some badass fight scenes and relationship drama

Carmen: traumatized and supporting men with words of comfort

Sam: relationship drama kind of but it’s not her fault everyone loves her

Devon: At least she apologized (for the thing she did in part 1 that to me was so ooc to begin with) but her apology was ultimately what pushed Johnny to make up with Daniel on that voicemail so…

Zara: …

Sensei Kim: they even gave her a fucking romance subplot (at this moment I’m indifferent about Kim and Chozen together)

8. I’m trying to think if the Bechdel test was even passed. I don’t have time rn but I’ll come back to update. I’m thinking the aquarium scene maybe?

Anyway. I’m disappointed but not surprised. Whatever atp. There are enough fics out there that I’m sure will fix this shit.

Here are my wishes for part 2 (that nobody asked for) now that we are less than 24 hours away:

I don’t want anyone else to die.

I don’t want Robby or Tory’s arcs to revolve around the other because they are individuals. They should grow and find their life’s purpose separate from their partners because there’s so much to address for Robby’s family and Tory’s grief and both of their futures.

For Johnny and Daniel to finally get along for 5 consecutive episodes. The first 5 minutes isn’t giving me confidence.

I don’t want Eli to be sidelined again. I like the drama with Demetri, but Eli is an All Valley champ. Put some respect on his name.

I want Kwon to have character development (though I’m sure he won’t based on the interviews I’ve seen).

I want Zara to be a fleshed out character and not just a “bitchy champion” because I’m worried that’s how they wrote her.

Overall, I want the writer’s room to give all the girls a real personality other than: traumatized, in love, or supportive/advising male characters.

And I’d love for them to pass the Bechdel test in this part.

I know this is all too much to ask though.

I’ll come back after part 2 to update this.

This Bitch SA Robby

This wasn't fling/hookup/one night stand. It was assault.

That's a fact

He was drunk, couldn't consent to what he was doing. He doesn't remember a thing.

But she does. She knew what she was doing and didn't care. She took advantage of him in his drunken state.

To the people who say it wasn't and that he got lucky cause you think she's hot, you people wouldn't be saying this if it was the other way around.

It's a double standard.

[grayfilmz]

can’t believe demetri cheated on yasmine and it wasn’t with eli

[sinful-karateka]

Fed, nourished, skin clear, hair luscious. This has to be one of their best hugs in the whole show.

[there-are-many-ways-to-smile]

Robby: “I barely remember last night”

Zara: “Good thing I do”

Yeah that’s rape, you can’t consent while under the influence.

A sober person can actively take advantage of a drunk person. Which is exactly what she did. 

[hawtriwitness]

i'm not gonna lie i found this scene so cute 🥺

[dykesynthezoid]

CK fans I need you guys to know that in 2015 I accidentally brought my mom to the sex museum in Barcelona bc I really underestimated what they meant by “erotic art.” They had a booth playing a silent porn film from the 1920s. The gift shop was just sex toys. They handed both of us plastic cups of warm champagne when we walked in. They did not ask my age upon entry or before handing me said champagne (I was 16). This place is still up and running. It is right in the middle of La Rambla. Do with this information what you will

[seeker-of-stories19]

I wanted to share some thoughts about Axel and his introduction this season.

As a new character I actually really liked him, I thought he was interesting and he and Sam had really good chemistry, not specifically romantically I just think their scenes were really sweet.

While he obviously reacted poorly to finding out Sam had a boyfriend I’ve seen some takes on his character I don’t really agree with so I wanted to share my view.

The thing that stands out to me the most about Axel is that he is very lonely, and not just in feeling like he doesn’t have anyone but in actually not having anyone. He’s physically abused and it seems likely that that has been the case for a long time, whether the rest of his team is as well we haven’t seen but he seems to take the brunt of it and I would assume the rest of the Iron dragons have seen it since it wasn’t exactly being hidden.

But regardless of all that speculation he doesn’t seem close to his team since he’s alone their one free night and as someone who has been lonely a lot I understand how easy it is to latch onto any good moment with another person. Sam is kind to him, thinks he deserves to be treated better, and talks to him like an actual person which all seem to be things that are missing from his life.

But a lot of people seem to think he was acting entitled, that Sam was just being friendly but he assumed it was more etc.

Personally I don’t see that in their interactions at all, I think he was really attached to her because it was the closest he’d felt to another person in a long time and he misinterpreted the situation. When Sam pulls back he doesn’t try to push her and he doesn’t get angry either. He seems embarrassed and flustered as he leaves but nothing about the moment was entitled or aggressive to me.

Now obviously he isn’t nice to Miguel about it but considering the things the characters in this show do to each other when jealous what he does seems pretty tame.

It’s easy to look at it as like an hour one night that he should be over but I feel like understanding his character you have to see that it’s more to him than that. Their interactions that night, having someone show care for him, means more to him because of his specific circumstances.

That being said he is angry at the world and obviously taking out his feelings on Miguel after Sam tells him she’s dating which I don’t really need to say isn’t okay. Only thing is I feel like because he’s a new character people judge him a lot harsher than other characters who have done similarly inappropriate things when jealous.

First 5 minutes of cobra kai season 6 part 2 can be watched here

[starglaee]

My toxic trait is refusing to believe any of the leaks for parts 2 and 3 simply because I don’t like them and think the writers can do MUCH better

Offscreen I hope Amanda and Anthony learned the truth from Kenny about Devon and Amanda apologized to her son. Yes, what he did in the past to Kenny was terrible and should have apologized for his actions a while ago, but he was in fact telling the truth.

Now it's her turn to apologize to her son.
