"What? Who did?" I said while panicking but keeping it to myself.

"I don't know! They were..." "They? You said there was one of them..." Ty said being cut off by me. I was confused. Very confused. Who would've come to my house? Who would've been able to find my house? My house is far away from town. I live near really no one. How would they have been able to find me?

"There was a king. He had two things behind him. Like subjects, or... servants." Ty said trying to clear things up. It didn't work that well though. I was still so confused. Why would a king come to my house?

"What did they look like?"

"They were... blue and grey. They had... well to sum it all up: they were squids."

...

"SQUIDS!? What?! Why? What? I... What?!" I said even more confused than before. That doesn't make any sense! Squids? Why or even how did they come here? I have so many questions!

"Well. To continue they... talked. They said that if you weren't here by tomorrow at noon, they would kill... me." Ty replied to my questions.

"They talked!? Why would they need me? Why do they threaten to kill you? I'm so confused!" I said

"I know your confused. I can help that if you just let me finish!" Ty said with more anger in his eyes. I didn't want to make him mad. I just wanted answers.

"Sorry. I didn't mean-" I was cut off by Ty.

"It's ok. Just don't ask any more questions. I'll explain everything."

"Ok" I said trying to be more... quiet.

"Anyways, they said that they would explain how they got here and how they talked if they saw you tomorrow." Ty said. That made a little more sense.

"And as soon as they got here... they somehow turned the lights off and put out the fire. After they left I tried to turn the lights on but the switch was gone until you got here. And I couldn't light the fire cause it wouldn't light. Make more sense?"

"Yes. Much more. And sorry for all the interrupting." I said trying to get him to accept my apology. It worked. He ran up to me and hugged me. He's never done that before. I could feel his ice cold hands touch my back. They were so cold. He was so cold.

"I still have one more question. Where are your headphones?"

"Oh, right." He said backing away off of me and onto the seat next to me. "When the squids got here, they took my headphones. They said that I couldn't have them on while talking to them. I don't know why though." He said with confusion in his eyes. There was something I never told him.

"Ya know, there is one thing I may have forgotten to tell you."

"What?" He said. I though he would be a little more... mad. More mad than that at least.

"Well, when you... got your headphones. I saw them. It looked like they had turned on. The green on them had lit up. Since it looked a little... magical, I went to Seto's house to ask him what happened. He said that there was one thing in a person's life that makes them... magical. He said that his was his wand, mine was my amulet, and that yours must be your headphones." I said trying to make Ty understand.

"Oh... ok. That is a little weird though."

"Yes. Yes it is. But I think it is what makes us... have protection and power over... evil things. Like mine gives me my power to... be myself. Like butter, and hate squids. Because when I got this amulet, I found a friend. He helped me through my troubles and
treated me like a brother. He is who taught me to be me. And the amulet led me to him. Can you guess who that person is?" I said trying to encourage Ty to... be himself.

"No... not really. Who?" Ty said. I could tell his was confused and thinking hard. But the answer was simple. At least for me and him.

"You silly!"

"No. It couldn't be!" He replied with much enthusiasm. I knew that I had cheered him up. That was my goal.

The next day

THUMP THUMP THUMP

"Who is it?" I asked.

"Open the door!" I heard a deep voice say. I didn't know the voice, but I could tell Ty knew. He scurried and opened the door...
