     "Where exactly is it we're going?" Branch asked, being dragged by Poppy. "Azalea is the other direction."
"Trust me," Poppy replied.
"Oh no... my two least favorite words..." Branch groaned, feeling nervous.

     Finally, they arrived at a house, Poppy beginning to climb up to the second story window.

     "Uh... Poppy? What are you doing?" Branch asked, looking up at her.
"Getting help," Poppy replied

     Barb walked over, beginning to climb as well.

     "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Barb!? What are you doing!?"
"Following Popcorn," she responded, casually.
"Have you both gone crazy!? This is one of those giant's houses! You know what that means? It means there's a giant inside!"

     "Not just any giant," Poppy said, smirking down at him. "A friend."

     "Well... well... I'm not going!" he yelled. "I'll find Azalea on my own! My own way! The safe way!"

     He started to walk, but a cat blocked his path.

     His ears drooped down, as he looked up at the cat, the cat growling down at him.

     "On second thought... wait for me!"

     He turned, running towards Poppy and Barb, the cat chasing after him.

     Quickly, he began climbing the side of the house, the cat jumping up to grab him, but he was too high.

     The cat hissed, and then turned, walking away, as the three trolls continued climbing.
