Just as they had expected, Sal was still in the training grounds. Barely sweating even a drop, he went one on one against Ajax.
Seeing that he was engrossed in the intensity of the fight, Nicole and Max watched him from the side.
"He really knows that dummy so well," Nicole nudged Max with his elbow while he watched.
"Obviously and he has come to be good at it," Max nodded in agreement.
Sal continued fighting with the wooden dummy for about 10 minutes. At the end, he emerged as the winner of the spar.
"Whoo!" He huffed a load of air and stretched his muscles before turning to see Max and Nicole at a side.
"What? You two are back already?" He was surprised. "But it's only been 6 hours."
"Hmm, well, we made it back in time somehow," Max shrugged.
"Ah I see," Sal nodded. "How about the four eyes?"
"The who?" Nicole was confused at first then he realized. "Oh that guy."
