3rd POV

Morning came and we see Strickler is being tied on the chair while sleeping until Jim move the stinky sock towards Strickler with made him woke up.

Strickler: Ugh! What is this?

Jim: Wakey, wakey. We survived the night with no sign of Angor Rot. Congratulations. Thought I'd bring you some breakfast.

Strickler: (Scoffs.) I don't eat socks. And I don't appreciate being tied up. I asked you to protect me, not torture me.

Jim: And I said I'd keep you safe, not comfortable

Jim frees Strickler to let him stretched.

Strickler: Well, the sun is up. We'll have until sundown to get me as far away as possible.

Jim: Fine. Let me call the team.

He picks up the walkie talkie to call his friends.

Jim: Trollhunter to Warhammer and Earthbreaker, you copy?

Strickler: (Sarcastically.) Oh, goodie. The Puberty Patrol is on the case. I feel so safe.

Toby: [This is Warhammer.]

YN: [Earthbreaker here, too. What's up, Jim?]

Before Jim could say anything, Strickler stops him by snatching the walkie talkie from him.

Strickler: Do you really think your friends will have any chance against that killer? They'll be a liability. May I remind you, you destroyed Angor's soul. He'll be out for blood, be it yours or theirs.

YN: [Jim, do you copy?]

Jim: Uh, yeah. Uh, guys, get everyone together. See what you can dig up on finding that last Triumbric stone.

Toby: [The one the Gumm-Gumms stole?]

Jim: Yeah. I need you guys down in Trollmarket. I'll catch up when I can.

YN: [Copy that. Over and out.]

They all hang up before Strickler speaks.

Strickler: Smart choice. For once, you're learning.

Jim: For the record, Angor Rot destroyed his own soul.

Jim begins to gather some things while Strickler is having cereal.

Draal: Why trust this changeling when all he does is betray you?
