Descended Dreams (Trolls x Reader)

Chapter 7 •Piggyback•

You lost your balance as your weak legs were sore, your back calf's felt as if they were about to explode in any second. You knew you lost your balance as you saw the the floor coming right towards your face, but to your surprise, you stopped mid air. You opened your eyes feeling wide awake as the fate that you accepted didn't come, as you felt someone's hair being wrapped around you.

You lifted your head up, and saw the two trolls were in fact running over towards you for your aid. Branch’s hair was being wrapped around you as he managed to catch your fall. He slowly lifted you up from above the ground with his hair and laid you down carefully on the ground with your back laid back. You flinched during this process, as you cussed out from the pain of your calf since Branch put slight pressure onto it.

“Agh fuck my fucking legsss,” you groaned miserably as the two trolls stood right next to you, and Branch kneeling down to get a better check on you.

“What happened..? What did you do??” The gray troll looked panically as he tried to aid your unwell look. He was rustling through his survival backpack as you spoke.

“I fought off the fucking devil,” You laughed as you tried to cope the pain by making jokes. The two trolls were not in the mood of a jokingly matter, which made your childish grin fade a small bit.

Poppy stepped forward towards you and kneeled down and hugged you. You knew it was supposed to be an emotional moment because this wasn't just one of Poppy’s ‘greeting’ hugs, but hell it's hard to admit that a hug would not be the best thing around now since you were in pain if any pressure was put against your body. You tried to shrug it off as it wasn't the time to rat out on Poppy like that, as you took deep steady breaths feeling the pain all around you.

“I’m so sorry (y/n), I wasn't paying attention and I was focusing on myself and I'm just,” Poppy paused as she cried out thankful that you were safe. “I- I’m just so sorry,” Poppy squeezed more into the hug in which you were suffocating. You grinned softly as you patted her back indicating it's alright to let go now.

“Yeah you better be sorry. (Y/n) could've got captured, and you let her out of your sight-”

“Branch calm the fuck down,” You gave a salty disgusted look back at Branch as Poppy finally let go of the hug. You were relieved.

“It was fully on me that I went off path, I knew what I was doing so it's MY fault, not Poppy’s.” You stated clearly so Branch would get the point. He sighed and nodded his head, but he was still disappointed in all of this.

“Wait, why did you leave me (y/n)?” Poppy looked at you as she noticed you said you intentionally left which gave her a curious look.

“Cause’ I was being adventurous motherfuckaahhh,” you sat upright not taking anything seriously, as you sat back with your hands on the ground supporting you.

“Okay, well so.. how did this happen?”  Branch exaggerated as he opened his arms wide open to show you and your injured self.

“Even Poppy knows nothing about the forests too, but she's not in bad conditions like you are.” You looked away not in eyesight of the two trolls, as that is not a bragging fact right there.

Honestly, you didn't even know this whole world of cupcakes and rainbows had the most scariest fucking shit you’ve seen in your life. The amount of surprising creatures you sought as you went through the forest, literally every fucking thing you came across was a living thing. The fuzzy rocks from beneath you would suddenly emerge from the floor and walk around. Passing by the Tree sized flowers were literally alive, as you managed to escape your way away from them. And do NOT talk about the caves in this world. You were convinced that all the caves so far in this world are just big fat fucking creatures that will eat you alive if you go inside one.. and that almost happened to you.
