my eyes snapped open with a groan. that woman's voice still ringing in my head... what was happening? what did it all mean? I looked at my hand, the mark beginning to fade. what do I do?

I sighed and grabbed my amulet before getting ready for school. I slowly switched the bandages on my hand before slowly walking down. I saw jim in the kitchen and waved. "hey bro, you make your decision?" I asked but he shook his head. "I don't know... I'm just a teen. and you saw what happened. I got my ass kicked in minutes." he said but I shook my head. "dude, you barely had any training. of course, you didn't beat a hundred-year-old troll." but my words fell on deaf ears as jim simply looked away. 

I sighed and went to get my bike. I climbed on before starting it. "Hey, Jim! want a ride?" I asked but he shook his head. "uh, nah, not today. I... I wanna ride to school on my bike today." he said with uncertainty making me nod. "suit yourself. I'll see yah at school." I said before opening the garage door. however, before I could exit, jim spoke.

"hey... bro... how's your hand?" he asked softly. I turned, slowly looking at my hand before to him. "the mark comes and goes as it pleases." I simply replied as he looked at me. "do you... do you still want to test out that amulet of yours? when you know what ... the amulet of daylight means?" he asked making me sigh. I pulled the amulet out, looking over its golden surface. "I... I don't know... but. whatever choice YOU make, know I'll stand by you." I said with a smile.

Jim looked at me before walking over. Slowly, we embraced one another. "remember this. it's you and me bro. us against the world if need be. you don't want to be this 'trollhunter', then I'll break the amulet for you, and if any troll comes for us, they'll deal with me." I grinned as jim leaned into my hug. I thought to my slight fight with bular... could I summon that power again?

"Thanks bro," jim muttered before I let go

"Thanks bro," jim muttered before I let go. I grinned before rubbing his head. "now come on, we got to get to school, Toby's already probably outside, so I'll be seeing yah." jim smiled and rubbed his head before I went into the garage.

climbing onto my bike, I got ready and rode out of the house. the engine hummed to life as I rode, the wind against my skin was a welcoming thing. the pain in my hand had faded, and I could ride more comfortably now. 

I rode happily, feeling free as I drove along. the sound of cars passing by was calming, especially after everything. but... still. this world was changing... too fast for my liking.

I arrived at school and slowly walked in. I massaged my wounded hand as I walked carefully through the school. The school felt so small compared to everything now. what was I going to do? Jim should be in school, not fighting monsters and beasts. but I guess we're not exactly in a position to change that...
