That afternoon, Sarah was in front of the exercise dummy, listening to the instructions from Master Hollow: "You hit with an intention to hit."
Sarah's expression showed that she does not understand. How else is she supposed to hit someone (or something)? With an intention to miss? "What does that mean?"
"You don't have an intent to hurt people." He shook his head when he saw that Sarah is still not understanding. Seriously... In this aspect, Aiden is an easier student. He can grasp from looking or from verbal instructions. No matter how quickly Sarah catches on, she needs a practical demonstration followed by a detailed description.
"Watch…", he assumed a fighting stance and delivered a blow to the dummy. There was a distinct dull sound of a palm hitting the hard wood. "This is what you do.", he explained.
"You should do this…" His next hit on the dummy produced an ear piercing sound of wood cracking and the dummy fell apart in several pieces.
I'm preparing for Sunday's mass release! :)
