Description
In a small taekwondo dojang in Atlanta, Georgia, something happened that needed to be seen to be believed. A 16-year-old girl named Laura Dixon did the unthinkable and dented a steel beam with a spinning heel kick! Both the instructor and the girl couldn't believe their eyes. How did she get so strong? Well, it was a combination of intense physical training, sheer will power, and a desire for revenge.

When she was five years old, an intruder broke into her family's home. He killed her father and raped her mother. Little Laura was also beaten. Fortunately, the police approached the house, but the intruder successfully escaped out the back door before the cops got there. One of the Gibbs' neighbors was a Korean named Song-Min Ping who was one of the first people on the scene after the incident. He was also the one who called the police. While Mrs. Gibbs recovered in the hospital, Laura stayed with Mr. Kong.

Following her discharge from the hospital, Mrs. Dixon was offered martial arts training for Laura by Mr. Ping, an 8th dan black belt holder in Taekwondo and Hapkido. Laura accepted and was enrolled in his dojang. Tragically, Mrs. Dixon, deeply traumatized, took her own life four weeks later. Master Kong then became Laura's legal guardian. Laura shed few tears, stating, "I have the rest of my life to mourn. Right now, I want to train." For the subsequent eleven years, Laura dedicated herself to training in Master Ping's dojang, driven by a burning desire for retribution.

Within the hallowed halls of Master Ping's dojang, Laura's body transformed. Her body, once fragile, was now ripped with muscle--a testament to her relentless training. She honed her skills with a fervor that bordered on obsession. She envisioned the man who killed her dad & raped her mom. Each kick and each strike were a step closer to her goal.

She ultimately achieved 1st dan black belts in Taekwondo and Hapkido. However, it was her indomitable spirit that distinguished her from her peers. She persuaded Master Ping to install a metal column for her to refine her kicking techniques. After some reluctance, he conceded. For 30 days, Laura dedicated herself to striking the metal beam. Pain was a foreign concept to her; her resolve was unshakable (as well as the fact that she developed extreme pain tolerance). On the thirty-first day, her strength had grown to such an extent that she could leave dents in metal. The once resistant metal column now displayed the imprints of her unwavering commitment.

Afterward, Laura was certain she was prepared. She was determined to find the man who destroyed her family and stole her childhood and innocence. Laura was resolute in her vow to pursue him across continents if necessary. And upon finding him, she would unleash her wrath, ensuring that her retribution would be far more severe than the punishment she had meted out to the beam.

For Laura Dixon was no longer a victim, a girl, or even a human. She was a force of nature, a tempest with a single purpose--REVENGE!
