       Angor Rot and the others stared at me in shock, then the trolls began cheering. Some of the animus totems came charging towards us, but Draal and Claire blocked them from reaching Jim and I. Claire stated, "You two handle Angor. We got this." Jim and I looked at one another and gave each other a curt nod before charging down to face Angor Rot. Another animus totem tried to charge him and Jim blocked it with his shield. I pushed Jim out of the way as Aaarrrgghh charged through and took out the animus totem.

        "When will you learn that Daylight is mine to command?" Angor Rot questioned. Angor used his enchantment on Jim and Daylight flew to Angor's hand. Then, Jim's armor glowed and Daylight went back to it's Trollhunter.

        "And when will you learn that Daylight is the Trollhunter's weapon? Not yours." I stated. I charged at Angor while he was in shock. The bow transformed into daggers and I sliced Angor Rot's right hip like he did mine. Angor screamed in pain and fell to his knees.

        "Guess I should thank-you for giving me the stink eye." Jim said.

        "My eye!" Angor Rot exclaimed. Angor Rot attempted to attack me, but I quick got out of the way as Jim charged Angor Rot. Angor Rot blocked Jim's attack and Jim back flipped out of the way before Angor Rot could strike him. I managed to grab Angor Rot and I threw him towards one of the shops. Angor Rot crashed against the wall. When he got up, he clutched his shoulder and I was rather satisfied that I was able to repay him for the damage that he caused me.

        "You destroyed my soul, Trollhunter. Now I will harvest yours as I kill your sister." Angor Rot threatened as Jim and him locked weapons.

        I knocked him aside with my bow and I retorted, "You know, you're threatening quite a bit, but you're not falling through with any of those threats." Angor Rot growled and charged me. Jim stood in front of me, but I pushed him behind me as I quickly blocked Angor's strike.

        Man, having unlocked this power to turn the tides of battle is making this so much easier. I felt like I could do anything. Suddenly, Angor Rot grabbed my arm and threw me against a boulder. I cried out in pain and my armor disappeared. I cursed myself as I realized my mistake. I had forgotten rule number 1: Always be afraid. I had gotten too arrogant there and Angor Rot had used that to his advantage. I attempted to stand but gasped in pain. I felt so sore and I was weary. I didn't know what was wrong. I felt fine not even five seconds to go. I have taken hits much worse than that.

        Angor Rot strolled towards me and said, "Your arrogance has cost you now, Wielder, and, now, the Trollhunter will watch you die." Then, Jim got in front of me and blocked Angor Rot's strike. I heard a horn honking and turned to see Blinky saying, "Oh! I enjoy this horn!"

        "It's not "hunter", Angor. It's "hunters"!" Jim exclaimed. Before Blinky crashed into Angor Rot, Jim grabbed me and got out of the way.

        "I drove! Did you see? I drove a human automobile! What a thrill!" Blinky exclaimed. Jim chuckled and turned to me asking, "Are you alright?"

        "I will be in few moments." I told Jim. Jim looked worried, but his attention was drawn back to Angor Rot as we heard Blinky cry out. He exclaimed, "Blinky!" Angor Rot lifted mom's car and threw it against the stairway. Blinky looked a bit frazzled, but seemed okay.

        "You thought that I could be defeated that easily? That your human contraption could kill me!" Angor exclaimed. I struggled to stand up and saw that the battle was not going in our favor like it was before. I need to summon the the power once more. I attempted to do so once more, but nothing happened. What was wrong? Draal came and helped me up.
