Maximus lost his spark in an instant. He had never beaten Elliot before. "Danielle, let's forget about it," he said
dejectedly.
At Shadow Fortress, their training regimen included hand-to-hand combat and shooting, and they often sparred
with one another to hone their skills. Seeing the disappointment in Maximus'’s eyes, Danielle figured there was
