Liam stood still as Sam had a standoff against Hawks. She stood in a stance as she looked at Hawks her eyes darting around to the other Cobra Kai's circling him. Sam then started to speak "you guys need to back off." Hawks looked to her as he furrowed his eyebrows, "I don't want to hit a girl." Robby walked into the seen and stood close to Sam and Demetri as he looked to Hawks, "you wouldn't stand a chance." Hawks looked at the three Miyagi-Do's, he scoffed, "so five against 3" as he looked to Demetri again and said cockily "more like two and a half." Hawks got into a fighting stance as all the Cobra Kai's and Robby did so as well. Hawks looked to the other Cobra Kai's and then nodded.
When he nodded Chris grabbed Robby from behind. Hawks kicked forward at Robby, Robby was capable of parrying the kick even while he was being held back. Robby forced Chris off of him and the fight went on. To Liam it looked kind of like two separate yet synchronised fights when it came to how Robby and Sam fought against the Cobra Kai's. They fought in a circular pattern as Demetri stood inside the circle, timid and afraid, a perfect example of deadweight in Liam's eyes.
'Pathetic… Absolutely pathetic' Liam thought as he watched Demetri squirm a little in hopes of dodging strikes only to be put in the line of another and needing saving by one of the Miyagi-Do's. 'And they're no better, losing with the higher man power and under the tutelage of Kreese and Johnny, they are a waste of time… a lost cause' Liam thought as he saw the Cobra Kai's get their asses beat despite having the upper hand originally. Liam sighed as he saw the crowd that had formed during the fight that portrayed Miyagi-Do in a good light as Cobra Kai's reputation was taking hits.
Liam narrowed his eyes as he slowly started stepping closer again, "ENOUGH!". All the fighters stopped and stood still in their places thinking they were being busted.
"You're all utterly disappointing, especially you Demetri considering you posted that sham review" Liam said as he walked over scowling at Demetri. Demetri responded nervously in a noticeably higher pitch as Liam started slowly walking past the Cobra Kai's that were trying to hurt him, "I-I didn't lie, t-that's entirely what happened, I wou-" Demetri was suddenly interrupted when Liam stopped a little in front of him. "You're lying" Liam stated plainly as his glare intensified. Everyone was quiet, except for the murmurs of the onlookers.
Demetri looked down to the floor as Liam continued to stare at him. Liam took a step forward, "you said my father harmed you when you wanted to join that's not the full story". Liam took another step, "I immediately told you you're not Cobra Kai material, I could tell from the way you carry yourself and the way you talk. You even said you wanted to learn Karate without contact or pain, that's stupid right?" Liam said as he took a step, ending with his head turning to Robby. Demetri became even sulkier. Robby was at a loss for words and didn't speak up in defence of Demetri.
Liam took another step forward, "it's stupid, and I told you it's only possible if you are really, really talented or a dumbass who doesn't want to actually learn. The chance of you being that talented is, well, near zero, because the only one I know is me, and I'm the strongest in the Valley." Liam held his arms outstretched to his sides as he faced his palms to the ceiling.
After a moment of almost complete silence he dropped his hands and then started slowly walking towards Demetri silently. He was now within arms reach of Demetri. Demetri was about to step back but Liam's arm shot out and grabbed his shoulder tightly. Demetri's eyes shook as they looked into Liam's eyes that appeared to be peering into his soul.
"You will delete that review or you will suffer grave consequences" Liam said looking into Demetri's eyes. Someone suddenly grabbed Liams shoulder though Liam didn't react, "you aren't going to hurt him" Robby said as he gripped Liam's shoulder. Liam turned his head squinting and said "I recommend you remove your hand or I'll do it for you". Robby didn't let go despite Liam's warning. "*sigh* fine, just remember you started this" Liam said as he let go of Demetri. Nobody moved for a moment.
Liam slowly took a hold of Robby's hand with a loose grip. Robby was confused for a moment but ultimately decided to tighten his grip though this showed nearly no effects on Liam. Liam suddenly swung his hand over his head as he spun his body, he seemed to effortlessly flip Robby over him onto the floor whilst simultaneously ripping his hand of him. "Gugh!" Robby groaned as he hit the floor now lying on his side. "ROBBY!" Sam screamed as she was worried about the boy that was now on the floor defeated. She was going to run to his side but Liam sent her a chilling and unfeeling stare. Liam looked back to the pitiful Robby as he stepped over and then used his foot to roll him onto his back as he place his foot on his chest to keep him down and to show his superiority.
"I gave you a clear warning, this is your own doing" he said as he looked at Robby's face which was filled with pain, disbelief and rage. He then closed his eyes and smiled "no mercy". Robby rose his hand and clutched to Liam's ankle and tried pushing it off of him. Liam only applied more pressure onto Robby's chest. Sam quickly ran up to Liam's side and used the momentum from the run to try and punch him, "get your foot off of him!" Liam stood in the same position not even sparing a glance at Sam's actions keeping his eyes trained on Robby, when it came to the moment her strike would have landed he fluidly parried her causing her to stumble and fall onto the floor face first behind him with her hand outstretched.
Sam got up and prepared to attack again till Liam said something, "you should give up now, you have no chance of beating me so why should we continue?" Liam looked at Demetri giving a side glare not moving his head, "this is a warning, if that review isn't taken down there will be consequences. Now, Cobra's we are leaving." Liam got off of Robby, Robby got up slowly and began to rub his chest as he groaned a little out of pain. Liam walked out from where they were fighting towards the crowd, the group of people parted as they still held up phones, whispered and continued their reactions to the scene in front of them. Hawks and the other Cobra Kai's followed him as he left. Sam and Demetri went to Robby's side to aid and comfort him but Robby was more worried for Sam and angry at Liam. Sam walked out with Robby's arm over her shoulder to help him as he had trouble walking, Demetri followed behind them sulkily as the three left through a different direction.

Outside the mall the Cobra Kai group was walking with Liam a couple feet ahead. The Cobra Kai's were having a conversation, gloating about how Miyagi-Do lost, whilst Liam stayed silent. "Did you see how scared that wuss Demetri looked, we really got him good" Hawks said to the group as they all laughed except from Liam. Liam stopped and looked over his shoulder at the group, "weren't you guys getting your asses beaten till I arrived? You all are pathetic, it was five against two and they had a handicap and you were still losing. Think deeply about how pitiful your performance was, and this wasn't a private thing there were many people watch and with the initial advantage you were still losing" Liam turned his head forwards and said "pathetic." Liam continued to walk as the others were standing in place either looking down or looking at Liam's back with shame, anger and other emotions. They all parted ways.

At home Liam was in his room on his phone, he got a glimpse of the time and seeing how late it was he was curious as to where Kreese was. He called Kreese. His phone dialed for a couple seconds but was picked up relatively quickly. "What do you want kid?" Kreese said as he picked up the phone. "Where are you old man?" Liam responded. "*Laugh* what are you worried about me? Don't worry, I'm at the dojo just dealing with paperwork, no big deal" Kreese replied laughing at the concern Liam had for him and dismissing his worry. Liam was quiet for a moment till he sighed and said "goodbye", hanging up after he did.
Liam looked up to the ceiling from where he was lying on his bed as he thought. 'The old man's obviously hiding something, I clearly heard someone hitting a punching bag, is he running a secret class without me? The old man must not trust me as much as I thought' Liam thought as he remembered a noise he heard in the background of the phone call. Liam continued thinking till he went to sleep.
