Woo praise from the big guy himself, what an excellent way to start a morning, thought Todd. Coming to the gym in the morning had been one of the best ideas he's ever had! Here was his chance to bond with his idol and maybe learn a few cool new workouts in the process!
Seriously, he could hardly contain his excitement!
"Well sir we've really just gotten started. So far all we've done is ra-I mean run on the treadmills. Em here was showing me how to properly kick a bag. I was thinking of going to the weights next."

Emily yawned. "I didn't really have a plan per say but Todd here has roped me into compet- working out with him this morning."
At that moment the two older ladies from the stair climbers situated behind the treadmills walked on by. The taller of the two stopped suddenly when she spotted the Sheriff and immediately ran up to him in a huff.
"Sheriff Woodman! Thank goodness you are here! You must do something about these two hooligans!" She pointed to a bewildered Emily and Todd. "All their yelling and carrying on this morning, why it gave me and Esther here quite a fright and ruined our morning workout. Isn't that right Esther?"
Esther didn't look upset or frighten in the least, "What are you talking about you old bitty! That was the most entertainment we've had since joining. I was hoping blondie here would kick him right in the balls when he showed up! Now that would have been quite a sight, in fact, I would have paid to see that!"
She leaned over towards Emily and said in a mock whisper, "Thanks to you I won $20 from Stella! Now don't you mind her dear! She's just bitter she bet on the hot young stud over there during your treadmill battle!"
At Esther's last comment Stella's face flushed, "Come on Esther we have things to do!" and pushed her towards the Gym entrance.
After their sudden departure Todd looked he wished the floor would swallow him whole. Emily however just nervously laughed and scratched the back of her neck and picked up where their previous conversation left off, "Umm... er yeah so like Todd said... we just got started here.."

George looked at the other two officers. Todd seemed like he could burst from the simple compliment that George gave. He knew how much Todd idolized him, but never really took advantage of it. Perhaps it needs a bit more time.
"Sounds like a solid workout so far. Remember to stretch afterwards. I remember when you didn't and were cramping up all day at work." he said to Todd.
A couple old ladies came up to George. At first, they were complaining about the way the two were yelling, but then it seemed to go into a bet the two made between a competition. Ultimately, the two ended up leaving, causing George to look on confused. "What the hell did I just witness?" he thought.
"Ermm...yeah. It's fine that you two are having a competition. It's all good and healthy. However, try to keep the noise level down. After all, there are other people here." he said to the two as he finished up his stretches.

Todd could have just died when those ladies came by. Seriously, they weren't that loud. At least that Esther one had a sense of humor. He was really worried the big guy would go ballistic and take back his compliment from earlier. He looked to Emily but she didn't seem that fearful she actually looked like she was about to laugh. Well...it was kind of funny.
Luckily George seemed more bewildered then anything and Todd was relieved the guy seemed to be in a far better mood then he was yesterday.
"Er-Yes! Yes I've been making a point to stretch after my workouts after you told me last week. No cramping lately! How long do you stretch for sir?"
Todd couldn't believe just how large big guy was. He was muscle on muscle, in fact he thought the man could give Arnold Schwarzenegger a run for his money back in his hey day. He was convinced if George ever went to the beach in CA he'd have to beat the woman off with a stick.
Todd's eyes cut to Emily who was silently miming an adoring fan behind George. He shot her a glare and she grinned and rolled her eyes. Didn't she realize how awesome George was! They could learn a lot from him! As much as he wished she wasn't here at the moment he was glad for her company. He didn't think he could handle being in George's intimidating presence all on his own.

Todd was a completely different person when George was around. It wasn't a secret how much he looked up to the guy and Emily thought it was pretty adorable actually! She much preferred "Fanboy" Todd over "Jerk" Todd any day of the week. His adoration of the Sheriff reminded her a lot of that Colin Creevy kid from the Harry Potter series. She wouldn't be surprised if Todd had started his own secret George fan club around the station.
She grinned after Todd her a death glare for her adoration miming. Poking fun when he was in his fanboy mode was just too much fun to resist!
Emily let out another yawn. She couldn't understand how George and Todd could be so awake right now when all she wanted to do was crawl back into bed. She was tempted to curl up on the mats to her left and go back to sleep...she could kill for a Starbucks right now!

"I take about five minutes before a workout to stretch, and about five minutes after." George replied.
He looked over at Emily and Todd. Todd looked active and ready to go, while Emily looked like she could fall asleep right there. Although she did spend an entire night with him at the hospital, he still felt ready to go. "You look tired, Emily." he said to the girl. "And I figured this would wake you right up..."
But there was something else he wanted to do. He noted the heavy bag that Todd and Emily were using before. "Back when I was still in school, I would study various martial arts, including Kung Fu, Taekwondo and Jiu-Jitsu. Since becoming a full time member of the Greenvale Police Force, I've sadly had less time to do so, though I still have a few tricks left." he said as he approached the heavy bag.
He took a fighting stance and stared down the bag for a few seconds. Then he unleashed a few jabs, sending it flying. Each time it came back, he was able to punch it back. He varied it up with a few kicks as well, and even perform a few combos against it.
After about five minutes, he stopped. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a breath. "Looks like I still got it..." he grinned.

Tired was an understatement. Seriously where did Todd and George find all this energy for so early?
After George's little show Todd seriously looked like Christmas just came early. She had to agree it was quite an impressive. Too bad she didn't have a camera with her she had a feeling capturing this moment would make the best Christmas present for Thomas and Todd. She grinned and clapped.
"The was great George!" She punched Todd lightly on the shoulder and said, "Looks like Todd here should be calling you Mr. Miyagi." She laughed and yawned again, "Hey I'll be back in a second you two." she pointed to a line of vending machines in the reception area. "I hear one of those vending machines with the Starbucks mochas calling my name."
She gave them a small wave, "Todd try not to kill yourself punching the bag while I'm gone, I would hate to miss it!" and walked slowly towards caffeine.

George was so AWESOME! Todd was awestruck not only by George's grace but the sheer about of power that oozed from the sheriff. He definitely had A LOT of work ahead of him if he ever hoped to be in George's league. If only that Caesar guy would let him in on his secret workout routine...he wondered how he could prove himself worthy to someone online.
Todd was both happy and a little scared when Emily left him alone with George. Here was his chance to buddy up with his idol...he hoped he wouldn't fuck it up.
Todd approached the punching bag and asked, "Sir? That was A-MAZING! I wish I could move like that. What's your secret?"

George turned to the awestuck Todd, who looked like he was about to have a joygasm. "There really is no secret. It just takes a lot of practice. Admittedly, I've had a few more years than you to get where I am, but just take your time." he said. "Maybe, just maybe, you'll have a place in the Legion yet." he thought.
"Alright, I'm going to lift some weights. You do whatever exercises you need to do and wait for Emily to get back. I want to see you guys spar." he said to him.

Emily returned with a mocha in hand to a giddy Todd.
She took a blissful sip and said, "Yo Todd what are you so happy about now? Where's George?"
She spotted her boss over by the free weights. She grinned and patted Todd on the shoulder, "You and me again eh? I take it your man crush on George was a little too much for him to handle?"

"No Em' George wants us to spar! How cool is that?" He looked in George's direction and gave a big grin as if to say "Look who's back! Let's get started!"
He smiled when Emily's eyes widened in surprise. This is going to be so much fun...

"Wait-wha-whaat?" Emily sputtered. "I don't think I'm quite awake yet?"
She threw a confused glance over to George who was putting his weights away and looked back towards Todd. She rubbed the bridge of her nose and tried to make sense of what Todd just said. Sparing? She must have misheard him. Maybe Todd is sparing with George? Yes that had to be it, there's no way George would think it's a good idea for her and butt head to spar. There would be too much bloodshed. "You and George are going to fight?" Emily shook her head is disbelief," Really I believe that's a new record for you Todd. I was only gone two minutes and the boss already wants to kill you! I know you idolize the guy but come on I don't think fighting him is the way to impress him!"
Emily threw her hands in the air to emphasize her next point, "He's huge! He could probably maim you with his pinky! It's suicide! And damn it I don't have a camera to document this!"

"What are you going on about Em? I'm not crazy enough to fight George!" Todd rolled his eyes, "You need to work on your listening comprehension chica!"
He continued as if speaking with a small child, "George wants you..." he paused to point at Emily "...and me to spar. Comprende?"
Emily still looked at Todd like he was crazy. He just smirked and said, "Look, he's coming back you can ask him all about it yourself!"

George got to spend some quality time with his weights. Even when not in the office, he always carried Arnold and Sylvester with him. Sure, he could have used the weights available at the gym, but they didn't have the same personal connection that his own two did: they were just the right weight for him to deal with every time.
Once he was done with his weights, he returned to Todd and Emily.
"The reason I wanted you two to spar was to release any pent up aggression. I'm well aware you two argue like a married couple, but we have a big investigation coming up, and I want to make sure all of my staff see eye to eye with each other." he said to the two. "Take some time to get ready, I'll meet you over by the ring."

Emily stared blankly at George. I must be still sleeping while Todd stood beside her grinning like an idiot. I picked the wrong day to come to the gym
She crossed her arms and shook her head. There was no way she was fighting Todd at six thirty in the morning. She just didn't have the energy one vending machine mocha was not enough to jump start her system. George couldn't make her fight...right?
"George, that's a hilarious suggestion but I'm sorry I don't feel like playing gladiator with Todd right now." She smacked Todd in the back of the head and and his shit eating grin disappeared. Emily turned to go, "You guys have fun bonding I think I'm going home-"
