Heyo! Welcome to my first Troll Hunters fanfic! I've written stories for How To Train Your Dragon and Stranger Things, but watched this recently and got obsessed with it. I finished season two, but was bugged with the last episode. I have decided to write a what-if kind of thing, that will expand into more of a story. Season 2 spoiler! Enjoy and review! Takes place when Claire uses the staff. I will change things up, but just a little.

This WILL have a happy ending! I promise! This is just my version of the season two ending

Chapter 1- Lost

Jim's P.O.V

I watched as Claire walked up those stairs. My heart was pounding in my ears, the panicked chatter among the trolls, making me feel dizzy.

"Wait, Claire! What are you doing?"

"There's another way, Jim!" No no no no!

"You can't make a portal that big!"

"It'll kill you!" Toby yelled. He was yelling at a wall. She was to stubborn. She wasn't going to listen. She furrowed her brows and stood up straight.

"If we do nothing, we're all dead!" Claire shouted. There were more panicked whispers amount the crowd. I gulped. I couldn't imagine what would happen if I lost her.

"You would do the same! You did do the same!" She shouted, gripping the staff tighter. I had to retort.

"I wasn't thinking! There's got to be another way!" No no no! I can't lose you. The wall was starting to break, the floor rumbling underneath us.

"You saved my brother, let me save you!" She grabbed the staff and focused her vision. Her hands started to shake and purple smoke pooled out of the staff as it gathered around her and swirled around the room. Claire's hands shook as she gave a painful groan.

"Claire!" I screamed. I couldn't lose her. She was threatening her one life to save us. Her feet stared to lift off the ground and I watched in horror as those big, beautiful, brown eyes turn into darkness. Like all the light had been sucked out of her.

I couldn't watch it. I shoved my way through people and charged up the stairs and grabbed onto her staff. She squeezed her eyes shut.

"Jim! I don't have a good enough emotional connection!" She chocked out focusing as hard as she could. The purple smoke that came from the staff was impressive, but was clearly hurting her.

"I need something emotional to focas on!" She tried to shout this, but it came more as a painful whisper. I felt my heart catch in my throat as I did the only thing I could think of. I kissed her. I didn't know if it would be enough.

The next few seconds were a blur. I know other people grabbed onto the staff, and I knew at some point that Claire and I parted. The next thing I knew, I was outside. In the calming fall air.

Their were quiet whispers amount the trolls. I opened my eyes slowly, with my head pounding. I sat up and waited for my vision to clear. I groaned and stood slowly. Then it hit me.

"C-Claire? CLAIRE!?" I screamed leaping to my feet and punching my way through the gathering crowd. In the center was Arrrgggg. He was holding something. He was holding her.

"Claire? No! No, No, No, No!" I rushed towards them and slid onto my knees. Arrrgggg opened his arms slowly, allowing me to get to her.

"No no no. Claire. Come on, please be okay." She gave a tiny groan and started to open her eyes. They were her normal big brown eyes.

"J-Jim?" I felt my eyes tear up as I took her hand in mine.

"Yeah. Yeah, it's me. It's okay. You saved us." She coughed weakly and closed her eyes for a few seconds. She opened them again almost painfully.

"Jim. I-I can't." I shook my head and allowed a tear to run my cheek.

"Yes. You. Can. You're the strongest person I know. You'll be okay. You have to be." I whispered. She gently reached up and laid her hand on my cheek. She gave another cough and groaned in pain. She was dying.

"No no no. Claire! Please you can't leave me. I can't do this without you. I can't lose you." She gave a tiny smile.

"You can. Jim, you can do anything. Even without me... I can lose you either." She closed her eyes once more, and I held my breath until they opened.

"No! Claire, please. Please hold on! I can't imagine a world with you in it. Please..." Her breath slowed and was uneven. Her eyes still had the faintest light in them.

"I... can't imagine a world without you either." Another tear slid down my cheek as she wiped it away with her thumb. She took a deep breath.

"Please... Claire. I-...I love you."

"I-" Her eyes closed and her chest stopped rising and falling. Her hand fell from my face.

The tears were let free. Toby came to my side and put a hand on my back, the tears flowing down his reddened face. Blinky came forward and Arrrgggg wrapped her body in his arms. Away from view.

"No!" I pulled open his arms, my angry tears running down my face. I let the amulet fall from my chest as my armor disappeared. I grabbed her lifeless body from Arrrgggg and held her tightly.

"No. No. No." I whispered. I put my hand to her face and watched her pale and motionless face. I waited for her to wake. I knew she wouldn't.

"I-I can't believe it." Toby whispered.

"She... She's gone-" Blinky spoke his voice breaking. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I threw my arms into the air and yelled out every curse word I knew. I cursed at Gunmar. I cursed the amulet. I cursed the world. I cursed myself. This was my fault. If I never told her about being the troll hunter, she would never be dead. Because of me.

I finished and collapsed, my body racking with sobs. I think that we were all crying, but I didn't notice. The second felt like hours. I took a deep breath. I stood.

"I'm gonna kill him. I'm gonna kill everyone of those god forsaken son of a-"

"Jim. You must think clearly. You could only hurt yourself more. Claire wouldn't want that." I sighed.

"How in the heck am I supposed to explain this! To the school! To her parents!"

"We won't." Toby said taking a shaky breath. "We can use the mask. Just until we can think of a way to explain this." I nodded, but I couldn't think. I couldn't breath. Claire was gone.

"Master Jim. We need to lay low. We need to get the trolls to a cave. You need to go home."

"No! No, I'm not leaving her! I-I can't." Tears continued to roll down my cheeks.

"Jim. We have to." Toby said. I knew he was right. I finally stood, letting go of her limp hand. I kissed her cold forehead and turned. I gulped and choked down another sob. "O-okay."

That's the chapter! I know it's very different from the original ending, but don't worry it WILL have a happy ending! Did you catch my little HTTYD quote? Let me know what you think, and if I should continue. Check out my other stories! Thanks! Until next time,
