Poppy, Branch and Barb squeezed through the slightly open window, but Molly reached them, grabbing onto their ankles, trying to pull them back inside.

Quickly, Prince D, Cooper, and Synth ran to grab their hands, trying to pull them free.

     "No! You can't leave!" Molly cried out.

     Finally, she lost her grip, the trolls rolling away onto the balcony.

     They stood, looking at the edge.

     "We... uh... are pretty high up," Branch said nervously, looking down at the ground far bellow them.

     "Yeah..." Barb agreed. "You jump first."
"What!? Why me!?" Branch objected.
"Because... if you don't die we'll know it's safe."
"And if I do die!?"
"Ugh..." Barb shrugged. "It was nice knowing ya."

     Suddenly, Barb pushed Branch off the edge, sending him plummeting down towards the ground, screaming.

     "AHHHHH!"

     He hit the ground, groaning as he stood up, checking himself.

     "I'm ok? I'm ok!" he shouted out, laughing, excited that he wasn't dead.

     The other trolls jumped off the edge, falling down, and landing on top of Branch in a pile.

     "Less ok..." Branch groaned, as he lay underneath everyone.

     "Hey! Come back!" Molly shouted, running out the front door to chase them.

     "Everyone! Go! Go! Go!" Poppy shouted, everyone jumping to their feet to run.

     They ran out into the street, several cars rushing past them, and almost running them over.

     "AHHHHH!" they screamed, trying desperately to avoid getting hit.

     Suddenly, a motorcycle came flying towards them.

     The trolls stood in fear, staring at the giant wheel coming right for them.

     "No!" Molly screamed, snatching the trolls out of the road, right before the motorcycle flew past.

     All of them sat in her hands, panting with fear, their eyes wide.

     "You guys can't do that!" Molly scolded. "You could've been killed!"

     They looked up at her, speechless, their hearts still racing,

     "Come on. Let's get you back inside, where it's safe."

     Molly turned back to her house, walking inside with the group of trolls.
