Jimmy was exhausted; he had never faced a challenge as great as the one he had faced that night. His entire body was aching, and he was bleeding all over.
He sheathed his sword and started limping to the hill that he slid down earlier. He looked up the slope and considered climbing up, but he was unsure if he had the will and the strength at this moment to do so, so he sat down on a log briefly to regain his strength and breath.
"Jimmy!" he barely heard from behind.
Jimmy turned his head and saw Squirps running down the hill.
"What happened? Are you alright?" Squirps asked.
"Have a look." Jimmy answered, pointing to Zayne's lifeless body laying on the forest floor.
Squirps was impressed, "Is that... Lord Zayne!?"
"You guess correctly..."
"Well then..."
"So, how do you feel?"
"Good, you?"
Jimmy smiled and moved his eyes around his body, "Could be better. You know. So, what now?"
