Shrictol's defeat was all over town... and practically, that was what everyone was talking about...
"...And then, he flew and punched him right in the chest! And Shrictol was all like...I am defeated..."Sammy the tree troll said to his friends."Whoa! That Jason seems like a great guy."Dave said and took a sip out of his coffee.... "Wait a minute guys, isn't Jason the one who almost wedded Queen Cyril... and ended up with some girl!?" Tammy asked and the two friends stared at him with pity.
"Shame on you! You have their guts to call them Queen's new best friend...SOME GIRL!? You have the guts to call Jason, our hero's girlfriend... SOME GIRL!? You should be ashamed of yourself! You know what!? I cast thee out of my tree, into the world you belong!"Sammy said as he watched Tammy leave.
"Hey! What's going on here?"Jason asked and swooped in. "Oh! Jason! Our hero! Just in time!" Sammy said as he rushed of his little tree with a pen and paper. "What's wrong?"Jason asked. "This fool... called your pretty girlfriend... some girl!...I hope calling her pretty didn't make you mad." Sammy asked and stepped back... And Jason replied, "Of course not. You can call her anything... only if it's a good name... Besides, it's true... she is pretty... and smart... and so so..."..
"Jason! snap out it! May we have your autograph?" Sammy and Dave asked as they rushed over to him."You guys haven't answered my question. Why's Tammy crying?"Jason asked and reached out his hand, but Sammy slapped it away."He's an abomination!" Sammy said.
"Wh... What do you mean? How is your fellow tree troll an abomination?"Jason asked with surprise."You said we should call your girlfriend good names... But this fool called her some girl! I've said this before!" Sammy screamed with a wry look on his face. "Well, I'll assume he wasn't aware. I forgive him...You know what!? Tammy's my new best friend."Jason said and picked up the little troll."What!?"Dave and Sammy screamed as they watched Jason walk away.
"So... it seems you're the youngest tree troll. How old are you apparently?"Jason asked with a smile on his face."Well... if you wanna know... I'm three hundred and forty five thousand years old. Dave is five hundred and sixty two million years old. Sammy is nine hundred and twenty two million years old... He's the oldest."Tammy said with a mischievous smile as he stared at Jason's surprised face ;
(a) Wide open eyes and
(b) Open mouth...
"What? It's true."Tammy said and Jason suddenly felt like there was a huge boulder on his back... actually, two! It was Sammy and Dave sitting on his back!
"Continue talking."Sammy said and Jason got furious."Would you guys please get off my back!?"Jason screamed and the trolls quickly jumped off his back so as to avoid his fury and wrath."S... Sorry."Dave stammered and stepped back a bit."Sorry!? You're sorry!? Sorry for yourselves."Jason said with a frown."Forgive us!"Sammy said as he and Dave knelt down with tears running from their faces.
"What's going on here?" Ivy asked and flew down to the ground."P... Please beg your boyfriend to forgive us." Sammy begged with tears and snot running down his nose."Jason? What's wrong with these guys? And why are you mad?" Ivy asked and stepped closer to Jason."First, these guys called you, SOME GIRL, Then the next thing they do after I forgive them is to jump on my back and scare me like creeps."Jason said with a little frown."Ehem! Point of correction, it was Tammy who called you, SOME GIRL!" Sammy said with a slight frown on his face, but there was fear in his voice.
"Hold on! Is that why you guys are literally disturbing the peace of the Mystic Isles? You know what? Sammy and Dave, apologize to Tammy and Jason."Ivy said."W... we're...so..s...sorry."Sammy stammered and Ivy looked away."Come on, Jason. Quin sent me to call you for something important." Ivy said, turning to look at Jason.
Ivy flew into the sky and Jason followed from behind. After some minutes, they got to the Dojo."Where were you Jason!?"Quin asked with a frown and his ears twitched a little."Having petty fights with tree trolls." Ivy said with a stern look on her face."Whatever... You're victory is all round town." Quin said. "Is that why you're calling me?"Jason asked."Not really... Someone of great importance wants to see you." Quin said and stroked his beard.
"Someone of great importance? Who could that be?" Ivy asked with a suspicious look on her face."Follow me. He's right outside." Quin said and walked right outside the door and they followed closely.
"What are you doing here!?"Jason asked with fury. "Listen... I'm really s...so...sorry. I was too...p... pr...proud..." Shrictol managed to say as he stared blankly at the floor and his antennas were drooping."He just wants to ask you to forgive him." Cyril said and placed her hand on his shoulder.
"In that case, I'll forgive you."Jason said hastily and happily, but Ivy kept staring at Shrictol suspiciously. "Thank you so much. You don't know how much this means to me." Shrictol said and started posing like a mannequin and flexing his muscles. "Shrictol, you're embarrassing me." Cyril said with red cheeks. "Jason, wanna hang out sometime?" Shrictol asked in a friendly tone. "Sure thing!"Jason said in a familiar voice... The voice he had when he was excited.
"We can meet today at the sacred garden by 7 pm sharp." Shrictol said with a smirk and he and Cyril disappeared in sparkles."Did you hear that!? I'm hanging out with a powerful being just like Cyril."Jason said excitedly."Jason, I don't trust this this Shrictol one bit! Besides, you've gone out with...Cyril once... so there's nothing special about hanging out with Shrictol." Ivy said and turned her face away to avoid Jason's eyes. Talking about it brought back awful memories."Ivy's right! Shrictol is a mysterious and powerful being. He's practically a devil in an Angel's clothing." Quin said and Jason and Ivy flew away."How did Quin know that earthly proverb?"Jason asked with an eyebrow raised up above his eye. "That's not the point here!Shrictol is really powerful. Besides, you might end up kissing Shrictol if you're not careful with your excitement" Ivy whispered to herself. "I heard that! Besides, it wasn't my fault that you were kidnapped." Jason said with a frown."It was your fault! It was fully your fault!" Ivy replied with a sneer. "My fault!? How?"Jason asked. "If you weren't so cute, Cyril wouldn't have fallen for you and... none of that drama would have...happened." Ivy said and the moment she looked into Jason's eyes, her cheeks became red. "Well, I...I guess you're right. I... Well, I do agree. I'm pretty handsome of you ask me."Jason said and Ivy laughed. She finally laughed for something he said. She hadn't done that since the Cyril incident except with sarcasm. He finally regained her trust. He finally felt that sense of love, honesty, truth and trust between them. A new fresh relationship had been born. Jason slowly bent over and kissed Ivy on the cheek.
