It's been a couple of days since they brought Sunstone into their lives. And everyone is started to fell in love with the little girl (exempt Blinky). Especially Claire. The trolling reminds her so much of her baby brother Enrique. How he was so small and innocent. It tugs on her heart strings every time she hold at her. Claire will do anything to get her brother back from the dreaded Darklands. The person that enjoys having her the most is Toby. He always wanted a little sister and Sunstone was pretty much the closest thing he can get. He loves holding her and tells her stories about the adventures him and his friends went on. He's even hoping to have a third Go Go Sushi player. As for Aaarrrgghh he was still unsure. He loved her but, wasn't sure how to handle someone younger than Toby.
Jim in the other hand was grateful to grab her just in time. Or else she would end up like Angor and Strickler. Or worse both. As Jim was playing Peek-A-Boo with her his amulet starting to glow which means the elders are calling him in the Forge. "Well it looks like council wants to talk to me."He knows what it was going to be about and slowly stood up from the floor and walked out. Not before placing Sunstone in Toby's arms. As he was fixing to leave he heard Sunstone starting to cry. Jim walked towards her and picked her from his friends arms. "Hey baby girl don't cry I'll be back I promise." He rubbed his head against hers and than placed a kiss on top of it. And than placed her back to Toby.
As Jim walks towards the opening of the arena he was stopped by no other than Draal. He looked up and waved at the blue troll right in front of him. "Hi Draal." He greeted. Draal greeted and noticed his amulet is glowing. Guessing he was going to the Heroes Forge to talk to his father. "My father wants to talk to you I reckon? Probably about that little bundle you and your team brought with you?" Jim nodded at his correction.
When Draal heard from Blinky about the trolling and who her parents where. At first Draal was thinking the same thing as Blinky was. That stealing a trolling from their mortal enemies was a bad idea and that Jim and his friends where putting themselves in danger. But, when he first saw the trolling for the first time he started to get smitten by her. And he swore he'll protect her with his life.
A few minutes of silence went by until Jim finally said something. "Well, I better get going unless you want to come so I can tell you what your father said after I'm done talking with him." Draal nodded and followed the Trollhunter into the Forge. As they went Draal looked at Jim with a blank stare."They would probably would like to discuss that trolling you brought in a couple of days ago."
He told him."Yeah I'm guessing that too big guy. Just hope that they would see it my way." Jim sigh. Knowing that would be a tough to explained to the council about the what that have done. Draal huffed. "Probably not. And it will not gonna be easy. They would probably chew you out after they done with you." He informed him. That didn't Jim to feel even less nervous. As they reach to the Heroes Forge Jim was immediately in the Void and faced the council and Draals father Kanjigar.
Souls of past Trollhunters hissed at him and angrily pushing him. Making Jim uses his shield to lessen the blows that came upon him. "Hey, enough! I get the point! You guys are mad." Jim shouted hoping they would stop. "How dare you put Trollmarket in danger!" A whisper yelled."You are an fool to taking that creature from that cave!" Yelled another.
That last one hit Jim hard. That made him clench his fist. "What where you thinking Trollhunter? Taking a trolling from your enemies?" Kanjigar looked at Jim with a stern eyes. "Vendel wanted me too. And me and my team agreed. No trolling deserved to raised to be grow up to be monsters like them. Plus we hide our tracks well thanks to Vaega." Jim informs him. The fallen Trollhunter shook his head at the flesh bags ignorance.
"You know how much danger you put yourself and the people you cared about? Especially my son? If Stricklander and Angor Rot finds out it was you and your team that took their trolling away from them they will rip you to shreds. It does not matter if Vendel the Old tell you to do it. You shouldn't have done it." He informs him."But, it was the right thing to do." Jim stand up to him."No James it was the wrong thing to do! If you keep the trolling you will face danger imaginable! Like Angor! His been killing Trollhunters before you were born! Before I was even born!" Kanjigar shouted.
"Come on how about Strickler? He isn't that dangerous."Jim waved his hand to the side and trying to convinced the Trollhunter. "Fool! If a trolling is taken from their mother they will become twice as strong as they were before!" One of the spirits yelled. Kanjigar looked at her and nodded with agreement."She is right. If a trolling is stolen from their mother he or she will go to the ends of the earth to find them. And would become twice as powerful as they once was. Troll mothers are very protective of their young. And would destroy anyone and anything in their path." He told him. "So if I were you I'll take her back where she belongs. And face a lesser danger in the future." Jim just looked at him with a stern in his face.
"I am NOT taking Sunstone back. Neither you or anyone will make me take her back." Jim than looked down and closed his eyes. "I know that danger I'm brought myself to. So does my team. But, we will protect her no matter what. I already failed to protect Claire's brother Enrique. Which I'm still going to save. I know you think I can't do this because I'm human and young but, I'll will prove you wrong. And maybe someday she'll help us." Kanjigar looked at him and shook his head the final time.
"Than you have doomed us all Trollhunter." Soon the council disappeared and Jim is back in the Forge once again. And just like always Draal walks towards him wondering what his father say."What did the council and my father tell you?" Jim looked at Draal and rubbed his neck. "He thinks I should returned Sunstone to her parents and if I keep her I doomed us all." Draal than asks him another question.
"What do you think you should do Trollhunter?" He asks. "Well, I'm not returning her back to them that for sure." That's when Draal started to grow concern. Don't get him wrong he liked the Trolling but, somehow he agree with his father. "But, what if she starts to question where she came from? She'll know that she's adopted." He told him."That I don't know. The only the thing we can do is tell her the truth. Just hope that she'll understand why we have to do it." He told him. But, inside Jim is scared. Scared that she will return to the people he tried so hard to keep her away from.
