Clear Your Shit: Startled by the Wizard! (Character to Fight)

After a lot of trial and error (and wet ankles), we manage to cross the river with a series of logs, rope pullies and then giving up on all that nonsense to walk upriver and find a bridge. On the other side of the river, we run into none other than the Wizard! Great! He must have something for us. Why else would he show up completely out of nowhere? We approach him, practically skipping with excitement. Just before we can reach him however he gives a flick of his wrist and disappears in a cloud of smoke. Heather and I look at each other in stunned confusion before I feel a tug at my bag. I turn just in time to see him pull a copy of Tithe by Holly Black from my bag and disappear again. That jerk! As if things weren't hard enough. I feel the urge to punch the Wizard in his bearded face the next time we see him. I hadn't felt such an urge to deck someone since Nephamael from the book he so rudely stole.
