The creature darted towards Tim and jumped on him. Then both Tim and the creature began to glow white hot.
"Tim!"
When the light dissipated, Tim was still there, but the creature wasn't.
"Tim, are you okay?"
He opened his eyes and looked up at David. Then he grinned.
"Tim?"
He slowly stood up, but didn't say a word.
David grabbed Tim's arm and shook him. "Tim, are you okay?"
Tim's smile faded and he became angry. "Get your hand off of me!"
"Tim, what's with you?"
"I am not Tim. I am Lord Setrie. And you will remove your hand from me at once. Or I will."
David stared at him. Had Tim lost his mind? What was going on? And what happened to that creature?
