"I don't even know what I'm supposed to wear." Jamie says as she and Sienna walk up to the dojo

"Something cute obviously. Seeing as this is your guys' first date." Sienna smiles

"It's not a date." Jamie says

"Who's going on a date?" Hawk says as he walks up by her

"Jamie."

"It's not a date."

"With who?"

"Jack Taylor." Sienna teases as she pokes at Jamie's side

"Jock Jack Taylor? Geez, Jamie you could do better." Hawk chuckles

"It's not a date, alright? We're just going roller skating."

"Yeah, going roller skating as a girl and a guy who have goo goo eyes for each other." Sienna says as she turns back to her car

"I hate you." Jamie calls out

"Love you more."

Jamie rolls her eyes as she turns back to Hawk. She frowns as she watches him keep his eyes on Sienna, "You do know that you have a girlfriend right?" Hawk quickly turns to her as she laughs.

"Huh?" Jamie shakes her head as she walks in the dojo with him following behind her.

As soon as they walk in, they're met with the group stretching. Miguel turns and smiles as he walks up to them. He and Hawk shake hands before he turns to Jamie.

"Hey." He smiles

"Hey." She smiles very lightly before she walks over to Aisha. Miguel's smile falls as Hawk's eyebrows raise.

"What's up with that?"

"I don't know." Miguel frowns as he continues watching Jamie.

The group stood at Coyote Creek facing each other as Johnny and Kreese stood in front of them.

"Gentlemen, ladies. Welcome to Coyote Creek. You've been split into two teams. Red..." Kreese says as he holds up a band, "And black. The goal is to capture as many headbands as possible from the other side. Today, the people across from you are not your friends. They're not your brothers. They are the enemy. The last team standing wins." He finishes as he walks back to Johnny

"How do we get the headbands?" Miguel says

"By any means possible. No rules."

"Use your judgement." Johnny nods, "This is just a training exercise."

"Correct, but remember, this is your life." Kreese says as he holds the band up again, "You lose it, you die."

"Hey, guys, sorry I'm late. Traffic on the 118 was a real bitch. Put Coyote Creek into the nav. Nothing came up." Jamie turns to see Chubs walking up looking completely different.

"What have you done to yourself?" Johnny says looking up and down

"Oh, the... Yeah, you know what, I just decided to flip the script, Hawk-style." He says as he takes his glasses off and points to Hawk. He frowns as Chubs continues, "Respect. Heretofore, you can refer to me as Stingray." He says as he smirks

"Yeah, all right, Chubs. He's on your team." Johnny nods to Kreese

"Terrific."

Jamie's entire strategy for this exercise, was in fact, hiding. She knew everyone else was tiring themselves out with fighting and not even taking into account that people may be hiding.

While she was hiding, she could see someone from the black team attempting to hide. She chuckles as she slowly walked up behind him. He had yet to notice as he kept looking ahead of him.

Jamie looked down and took a step back. She stepped down on a stick as she looked up to see him jump out of his skin. He put his hand on his heart as he sighed heavily.

"Jesus." He says before his eyes grow wide. He holds his hands out as he backs up, "This is where we fight right?"

Jamie shrugs, "If you want to."

"Right. Uhm." He pauses. He shakes his head as he reaches up and snatches his headband off. He stands upright as he holds it out, "Didn't quite expect my plan to be blown up."

Jamie smiles as she takes the headband.

"Team Black!" Miguel yells as he holds up Hawk's headband.

"Yeah!" The teens cheer as they huddle around Miguel.

"Looks like that champ of yours is developing a real killer instinct." Kreese says

Jamie comes out from behind a tree. She grabs Miguel's arm and turns him. His eyes widen at the unexpected force. Jamie quickly does a leg sweep causing Miguel to fall back. She kneels above him as she snatches the headband.

The red team starts to cheer as Jamie stands up with a bright smile. Aisha hugs her as Tory helps Miguel up.

"The red team just won!" Stingray yells

"Whoo! Yeah!"

"Good work, Ms. Jackson." Kreese smirks as Jamie hands him the band.

"Thanks." She says as she walks past him. She smiles at Johnny who winks at her before he approaches Miguel.

Jamie came down the steps with a trash bag in her hand. She hurried to toss it before she quickly turned around. She screamed as she saw Miguel behind her.

"Jesus christ, dude." She sighs in relief

"Sorry." He chuckles

"Yeah." She says, "You okay?"

"Yeah, I, um.." He says as he looks down, "I actually wanted to congratulate you for earlier. Didn't get to because you left before I could catch you."

"Thanks." She nods, "No hard feelings though, right? For, you know, kicking your ass?" She smiles teasingly.

Miguel laughs as he shakes his head, "No, of course not. Never."

"Okay, good." She says, "Well, I'm gonna go. I'll see you tomorrow." She says as she walks past him towards the stairs. She only makes it a couple of steps up before he stops her.

"Yeah?" She says as she turns to him.

"We're okay right?" He says softly. Jamie's face softens as she looks at him.

"Yeah, we're okay. Always."

He smiles as he nods. "Night, Miguel."

"Goodnight, Jamie."
