"What do you mean you won't undo the binding spell?!" Jim asks pointing his sword at Strickler. "I thought you cared about my mother!" Jim angrily yells at Strickler. "I do, much to my surprise quite deeply." Strickler says, smiling gently to himself. "In fact, I might love—"

"Don't you dare finish that sentence. If you truly cared about my mom you would undo the spell." Jim says, pacing around. "Then what? You see my predicament, I have my own interests to look out for." Strickler explains as Jim scoffs. "What interests?" He asks as Strickler explains how if he broke the spell Jim would probably off him. Jim gives him his word they he wouldn't hurt him. Though Strickler brings up a point about how the other trolls might. Jim once more, assured him his safety.

"And insurance, you won't hurt any parties involved with me." Strickler says as Jim raises a brow. "If you mean the Janus Order, I can't guarantee that buddy." Jim tells him, crossing his arms. "No not them— never mind." Strickler shakes his head as Jim glares at him suspiciously.

"Once the spell is broken you can leave, no strings attached." Jim tells him before sighing, "I give you my word." Strickler nods slowly as he extends his hand for a handshake to which Jim obliges.

Toby and Claire watch as Coach Lawrence and Miss Janeth discuss whether Claire's staff was illegal or not. Toby winks at Claire before suddenly collapsing to the floor, choking on air. Claire raises a brow, taken back by the weirdness she's come to know as Toby. But she plays along, telling the teachers that her staff was his medicine. Although Toby ends up getting a mouthful of Miss Janeth, they got the staff back.

They climb to onto the roof as Claire attempts to make a portal. "Come on, Angor Rot cold be here any second!" Toby jitters, moving around as Claire groans. "I'm trying to concentrate." She grits out, closing her eyes as the staff slowly turns to a dark purple. Toby looks around, getting a feeling that they're being watched. He spots Angor Rot on a ledge above them, his knife in hand.

Toby yelps, stuttering Claire's name. "You aren't helping Toby." She tells him as she turns to him. "No, Claire he's here!" Toby yells as she gasps, opening her eyes as she looks up at the assassin. "The weak human thinks she has the will to power the Skathe-Hrün?" Angor mocks Claire as he watches them run as he jumps off the ledge, following them slowly as Toby almost falls off the building.

Claire ushers him to get behind her as she uses the staff to block Angie's knife. "Tell me human, where is the key to Trollmarket." He asks Claire as she tells Toby to run. "Tell me and I might let you live, unlike your friend." Angor says with a wicked smirk as Claire falters but recovers quickly to use the staff to push his knife away, barrel rolling underneath the blade as he tries to slice her.

Her and Toby run, before Claire stops as Toby keeps going, only stopping when he realizes she isn't with him anymore. "Claire, come on!" Toby ushers as she ignores him, turning to stare down Angor Rot. "I know you're lying. Just trying to get under my skin but it won't work." She tells him sternly as he grins a very unsettling grin at her. "Do you know I'm lying?" He asks, licking his blade as he stands off against her.

Claire smiles, "I know you are. I can still feel her through this." Claire says, tilting her head towards the staff as he charges at her, swinging his knife as she deflects, the two go back and fourth. "A staff of such power isn't meant to be wielded by man!" He says as Claire pushes him back with her staff. Claire quickly flips the staff trapping Angie's knife in it as she puts it against the floor, holding onto it as she kicks Angor in the face, making him let go off his knife as he drifts to the side.

She picks up her staff and twirls it, staring the assassin down. "I'm not a man." She tells him sternly as she goes to swing the staff at him as he slides underneath, grabbing his knife and kicking Claire, making her drop the staff as he picks it up. "Now that's true power." Angor says as he raises the staff to the sky before getting assaulted by bricks from Toby. He twirls the staff, breaking the bricks with ease. "When I'm done with the girl, I'll come for—" Angor gets cut off by him groaning in pain as Claire kicks him in the gronk-nuks. He drops the staff as Claire picks it up as her and Toby climb up a ladder, ascending higher onto the school building.

Toby looks down to see Angor disappearing, commenting on that Claire shrugs it off as she opens a portal, but before Toby can run through Angor falls from the sky, grabbing the paper out his hand, choking him as he reads over the paper. He throws Toby towards Claire who drags him away from the side of the building.

"You sought to break my enchantment, too bad you've failed." Angor says, pointing towards them. "A pity you aren't better warriors." He chuckles as Claire shrugs, lining up her staff to throw. "I'm no warrior, but I threw javelin at track and field!" Claire quips, throwing the staff at the paper as it goes through the portal as it closes.

Angor seethes, growling as he charges at Toby and Claire, grabbing her bag as she tilts over the edge along with Toby who she quickly grabs his ankle. Angor raises his knife and cuts the rope, sending them falling into a tree and to the floor.

Angor grins as he looks at the horngazaal in her bag. "I'll be seeing you again soon." He says to them as he runs away, hopping off the other side of the building. Toby and Claire relax as he runs away, sighing. Toby turns to look at her, "So, Y/n's still alive?" He asks as Claire turns to him with a wide smile, nodding. "And I know where she is, in the sewers!" She tells him happily before they hear the familiar voice of Coach Lawrence tell them off again.
