     Azalea and Twig both hugged Peppy tightly, as they sat in front of the tree house, crying softly.

     The sun was beginning to set, and they still hadn't seen or heard from their parents after they were taken by the hunters. They assumed the worst, and were grieving the loss of their family.

     "Fueesha!" they suddenly heard up in the sky. The three of them looked up, smiling, as they saw Uueeka flying above them, Poppy, Branch, and Pansy riding on his back.

     They landed, the three trolls climbing off of the Synathin.

     "Mommy! Daddy!" Azalea and Twig cried with joy, running over to hug their parents.

     "We missed you two so much," Branch said, closing his eyes, as he hugged his kids tight, never wanting to let them go.

     "Shiinaoo!" Uueeka said, joining in the group hug. Pansy laughed.
"Uueeka and I missed you too," she said, also joining in the hug.

     "Hey. The suns still slightly up. What do you say we take Uueeka for a little joy ride?" Pansy said, smiling. "Yeah!" the two children shouted, running towards Uueeka.

     "Nope. No way," Branch objected, crossing his arms as he looked at them.
"Awww..." Azalea and Twig pouted, looking at the ground sadly.

     "No way I'm letting you take those kids on that Synathin..." He smiled. "Without me."

     Azalea and Twig looked up at him smiling.

     "Yeah!" they shouted, climbing onto Uueeka's back.
"And this time, I'm driving," Branch said with a quiet laugh, as he climbed on too.

     "I'm totally in," Poppy laughed, running over to join them.

     Pansy took Peppy's hand, as he kissed her cheek, both of them climbing onto Uueeka together.

     "Everyone hold on tight," Branch said. "Foony!"

     Uueeka spread his wings, flying up into the air, as he and the six trolls flew off into the sunset.
