Third Person's POV

Anne and Marcy have been travelling for a few days now. There still hasn't been any signs of Sasha or her Scorpileo anywhere, but they weren't gonna give up just yet until they find her.

"Damn, how long till we get to that toad tower you guys were speaking of?"

"Not too far now, it's still gonna take us a couple of days till we reach the southern toad tower. We might have to stop by wartwood again for the night" Marcy said as she set course for the town.

It only took them a couple of minutes before arriving to the town safely.

Anne hopped down from joe before helping Marcy get down by grabbing her hand. Marcy thanked Anne while trying so hard not to blush in front of her.

Anne welcomed her before she took another look at the town. She started to feel uneasy again when the townsfolk started glaring at them, mostly on Anne since they still don't trust her since the last time she was here.

Marcy told Anne that it was okay but that quickly changed when a pink frog appeared behind Anne and started pulling her hair.

The Thai girl jumped as soon as she felt the creature on her head and tried to grab the little frog off of her.

"Hey watch the hair!" Anne yelped.

Marcy tried to help her but was later hit by the face when the pink frog jumped off from the Thai girl.

Both of them helped each other to stand before they glared at the mischievous pink frog tapping his foot with a cocky look on his face.

"Oh it's you again from the plantar residence. Sprig Plantar" Marcy said as sprig stuck his tongue out at her.

"You... know him?" Anne asked,

Marcy answered that ever since she came here, this pink frog in front of them has been annoying her. Other townsfolk were beginning to warm up and accept her, all except a certain coloured frog.

"I don't like you being in our town, Marcy. Sooner or later, you're going to eat us all with those nasty looking teeth of your's. Plus, you brought another of your kind except it's not that annoying soldier from the southern toad tower"

"Look sprig, we ain't here to eat you. We came here with no means for any trouble or harm... I promise" Marcy said.

Sprig, as always, didn't believe in whatever the princess said, but Anne stepped in and asked Marcy if she could try and speak with him instead.

She took a moment before stepping back and letting the girl do her thing.

"So, you're sprig plantar. I'm guessing you're famous around here?"

Sprig stayed silent which made Anne think that he obviously wasn't as popular around here as she thought he would be.

"Huh I see, if you're not really popular around here... do you at least have any friends around?" Anne tried again and this time the frog slowly answered that he had none.

He explained even further that no one would play with him or pay any attention to him since they saw him as this annoying frog who has nothing better to do but being an attention seeker.

Sprig did add that he had one friend, but she was too busy helping out with her mother at the teashop near the place so they didn't really hang out as much...

Anne felt a bit sorry for the pink frog and thought as hard as she can before coming to conclusion that she'll be his friend instead, if he promise to stop annoying others... especially to Marcy who he doesn't like very much.
