Poppy and Branch backed away, slowly, as the people approached with their nets.

"W... what do we do?" Branch asked, nervously.
"Um... uh..." Poppy said, looking around, trying to think.

One of the people threw down their net, and Branch pushed Poppy out of the way, quickly getting in front of her, to block her from the threat.

"Umm... run!" Poppy yelled, grabbing Branch's hand, as she took off running, dragging Branch with her.

     Meanwhile in first class, Barb was laying spread out on a giant cake, as she took handfuls of it, shoving it into her mouth.

     "Mmmm... so good," she said, as she ate.

     A flight attendant went to get a piece of cake for one of the passengers, when he noticed Barb.

     "AHHHHH! Rat!" he screamed.

     Barb sat up, swallowing the clump of cake in her mouth.

     "And that would be my cue to leave..." she said, softly. "Peace out, losers!" she shouted, running out of first class.

     "Hey! Get back here!" the flight attendant yelled, running after her.

     Poppy and Branch ran back into the main area of the plane, running through the isles, as the people with nets chased them.

     Barb ran out from first class, the flight attendant chasing her.

     The three trolls met up with each other, panicking.

     "We need to run!" Poppy and Barb shouted at the same time.
"Run where!? We're on a plane!" Branch yelled.
"I don't know!" Poppy yelled back. "Just run!"

     A net flew down at them, and they quickly jumped out of the way, running towards the flight attendant.

     "Giant in coming!" Branch yelled, pointing at the flight attendant running at them.
"Jump!" Poppy instructed.

     They all punched their hair into the ground, flinging themselves up onto the seats, as they continued to run, jumping seat to seat, right past the flight attendant.

     "Freeze!" the bald man, who Barb wrote her name on, suddenly shouted, as he jumped out of his seat, as he held up a badge. "I'm an Air Marshal."

     The trolls froze in awkward positions, Molly gasping, as she finally noticed what was going on.

     "Can we move now?" Barb asked, struggling to hold still in her position.
"This is a very hard pose to hold," Poppy added, standing on her hands for some reason.

     "Whoa!" Branch yelled, losing his balance, and face planting onto the floor. "Ow..." he groaned.

     Suddenly, the monkey from cargo came walking up.

     "Is that... a monkey?" the bald man asked, raising his eyebrow.

     "Oooo oooo aaaa aaa aaa!" the monkey yelled out.

     Suddenly, birds flew out, followed by the dogs, running and barking.

     Everyone panicked, screaming about the animals running lose on the plane.

     "We're gonna need to make an emergency landing," the pilot announced over the speaker.

     The monkey jumped onto the bald man's face, knocking him to the floor.

     "Guys! Quick! Over here!" Molly yelled, ushering for the three trolls to come.

     They ran back to her, quickly jumping into the backpack.

     The bald man saw, and was about to go after them, when the skunk suddenly waddled over, turning it's back to him, and lifting it's tail.

     "Oh no..." he said, his eyes wide.

     The skunk sprayed, and the bald man screamed, his eyes burning from the stench.

     "AHHHHH!"
