A/N: Hi, guys! The picture above is what Monica looks like. She has the same red hair as her mom and the same eye color as Jim. What do you think? If your wondering where I did this, I created this picture of Monica on www.avatarmaker.com

        The Quagawumps served us some food and I watched in disgust as Blinky ate the swamp maggots with delight. Then, I noticed that Claire was looking in Jim's direction, who was sitting right next to me. Jim's eyes widened with fear because he was also looking at, which caused him to freak out and take a bite out of the head of a swamp maggot. As soon as he realized what he had done, he looked like he was about to throw up, then he fainted.

        I started laughing and I noticed that Toby was being fed all the meat. Lucky. Shouldn't he be asking about the Kill stone? Looks like I wasn't the only one thinking about that because Blinky came up to Toby, but it didn't look like Toby wanted to ask them. Then, one of the Quagawumps grabbed Blinky and said, "This servant bother you? You want me to kill him?"        

        "No, no, no, he's fine. For now." Toby said. Really Toby? Then, I focused back on Jim, who was now awake, and helped him over to a boulder to sit on. My attention shifted back to Toby again when another Quagawump proclaimed, "Now is the time of telling. Why returned have you?" Was he going to finally tell them about the Kill stone?

        "Uh, yeah. I have returned for one great purpose---ahem--- to tell you of my grand adventures in a far-off mystic land called Arcadia!" Toby exclaimed. The Quagawumps gasped and were very eager to hear what he had to say. Toby continued, "Yeah! Yeah! There, I battled the diabolical Coach Lawrence and his Unclimbable Ropes." Toby went on forever and I only paid attention when he finished another one of his stories of 'epic bravery', "And that day, I was going commando or should I say, command-do." The Quagawumps kept calling for more stories, but Jim walked up to him. I really hope that he was telling Toby to hurry it up.

        While they were talking, music started playing and one of the Quagawumps declared, "My king? After journey, what is song you bring?" Toby looked at Jim and I could tell that he was asking Jim for a song suggestion. I stood up getting ready to fight if it was necessary. Then, Toby started clapping his cheeks, stomach, then butt, and said, "Boom. Boom. Shake the room. Say what?" The Quagawumps looked at him confused, then Toby yelled again, "I said, 'Say what?'" There was murmuring, then they started repeating what Toby said. It turned out to be a fun dance and song, if you would call it that, that is. Even Aaarrrgghh got into the song and joined the Quagawumps in their dance.

        Out of the corner of my, I noticed Claire walk up to Jim and reach her hand out towards him, "Come on! It's catchy."

        "Sure, sure! In a minute. I'm just digesting." Jim said. Ugh. Seriously? You missed your chance again!

        "Everyone right!" Aaarrrgghh exclaimed. I snorted while Jim wondered what he was talking about. Aaarrrgghh continued, "Wuss! Wuss!"

        "He's correct, Master Jim. Wussing out." Blinky said. I laughed and said, "Come on, Claire. I'll dance with you." She smiled and we both started dancing while Jim was talking to Blinky. Aaarrrgghh soon joined Claire and I told Jim that he couldn't go wrong. Wrong about what? I'm not sure. I soon got my answer when Jim made his way over to Claire and I. I took that as my sign to leave and I now realized why Jim was afraid to ask Claire out to the Spring Fling. He could not dance.

        Then, to my horror, Claire asked Jim out to the Spring Fling. Dang it! I owe Eli Pepperjack $10. You let me down, Jim!

        I slumped in my seat and glared at the two lovebirds and I noticed Jim nervously glance in my direction. He knew why I was upset. He turned back to Claire and he accepted. At least, Claire and Jim will go with each other to the Spring Fling. I noticed they were about to kiss, but the music stopped and I heard footsteps and a giant Quagawump came forward.

        "What manner of mischief this be?" He shouted.

        "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Who's this joker?" Toby exclaimed. The Quagawump beside Toby informed him that it was Blungo, the pretend king and she asked if he was going to fight him. Great. This was not going to end well. Blungo demanded to know why we were here and the Quagawump told him that the true king had returned. Toby nervously waved and I didn't blame him. Blungo grabbed Toby and said,

        "Shattered King cannot be! King was shatter-ed! King am I!" Blungo exclaimed.

        "My favorite musical!" Toby exclaimed. Blungo looked at him confused and one of the Quagawumps told Toby to use his magic. Toby did his finger trick, but Blungo laughed, "Dismemberment amuse Blungo. Now I dismember you!" He started shaking Toby and to our horror Toby exclaimed, "Please don't kill me, Blungo. I'm not the king, okay?" Blungo asked why he was here, then Toby said, "I only made it up to get the stone!" The Quagawump was shocked and Toby was trying to apologize.

        "The Kill stone!" Blinky shouted. I looked at Blungo's crown and my eyes widened. There it is!

        "Put my friend down!" Jim demanded. I summoned the Thriskule and aimed an arrow at Blungo while Jim shouted, "For the Glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command." Suddenly, Angor Rot appeared and jumped onto Blungo's back and he turned Blungo to stone with his dagger.

        Jim got Angor Rot's attention, but Angor Rot took Daylight from Jim. No! We completely forgot about the Mark!

        "How did you-" But, Jim was cut off by Angor Rot, "Daylight is now mine to command." I launched towards Angor Rot because he was taking the Kill stone. The Thriskule transformed into daggers and I threw them at Angor Rot. He was able to dodge them and he kept trying to pull the Kill stone out of the crown. Then, a boomerang flew past me and I recognized the material the Boomerang was made of. I turned to Jim and I realized that he had just unlocked some new perks to his armor.

        I smirked and turned back to face Angor Rot, but I was met with a fist to my face. I stumbled backwards from the punch and regained my footing. Why did I turn my back on Angor Rot? That was stupid of me to do. He was so going to pay for that though. Jim and I faced Angor Rot while the others searched for the Kill stone.

        "Now isn't this fun?" Angor Rot joked. Suddenly, Aaarrrgghh crashed into him, but Angor Rot kicked Aaarrrgghh to the side. We attempted slash at him, but Angor Rot disappeared and reappeared up on the tree. Jim and I climbed up after him. We continued to fight him. I noticed Angor Rot jump up behind Jim and I pushed him out of the way, which caused caused him to fall off the branch, but Aaarrrgghh caught him. Angor Rot pinned me up against the tree and snickered, "This is amusing, but lets end this little charade now. I'm not exactly supposed to do this unless Strickler felt threatened, but at last it would mean that I would be one step closer to finishing the Trollhunter."

        "What do you mean?" I wondered.

        "Your brother didn't tell you? That explains why you aren't terrified." Angor Rot said. Suddenly, Jim yelled, "Stay away from her!" I used this distraction to push Angor Rot away from me. I was going to ask Jim what Angor Rot meant later. Angor Rot regained his footing and his dagger glowed green.

        "Be careful! His blade is poisoned with Creeper's Sun! One cut and you'll be turned to stone!" Blinky called out. That's wonderful. I jumped of the tree branch and met up with Jim and Aaarrrgghh. We jumped down the branches of the tree to try and avoid the dagger. Then, Angor Rot turned a branch that Jim was standing on to stone, which caused him to fall, but again Aaarrrgghh caught him.

        "Hey, everyone! I've got the stone!" Toby shouted. No, Toby. Don't shout it. Angor Rot punched Toby out of the way. We ran towards them while Jim shouted, "Don't let him get away!" One of the Quagawumps, who was talking to Toby earlier, charged Angor Rot, but Angor Rot pushed her to the side.

        "That's our stone! We need that to save my brother!" Claire shouted. She grabbed Angor Rot, but Angor Rot went into the portal with Claire!

        "Claire!" Jim and I shouted. Then, Claire reappeared. We all ran over to Claire and Jim asked, "Claire, are you okay?'

        "I-I lost the Kill stone!" Claire exclaimed.

        "But, we have you. We'll get it back." Jim promised.

        "Indeed, the victory here was survival. Shadowstaff! Very dangerous! Let me take that from you." Blinky stated. He was about to take the staff, but Claire said, "No way. I'm keeping this."

        The time came to get back on that dreadful Gyre. I'm never going to like this thing. Claire, Jim, Blinky, and I got on while Toby went to say good-bye to his new friend and Aaarrrgghh started the Gyre. Then, the Gyre started and Toby and Aaarrrgghh got on. Time to go home.
