Trolls: Across the Galaxy

Chapter 9

Your attention, crew, we're arriving to Planet Nebula in less than 30 minutes, everyone get back to your stations!

30 minutes?! Poppy's heart almost stopped the minute she heard that, Branch had less time to find her than she thought!

Poppy: Branch...please hurry...!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Everyone was screaming in sheer terror as Branch was trying to steer Rhonda through a meteor shower.

Tiny: This is too much!!! I'm only a baby!

Spruce: I thought you said you weren't a kid anymore!

Tiny: Whatever! Hold me!!!

Branch continued steering Rhonda through the meteors, several times, the group almost got hit.

Viva: Alright, that's it!!! Time for drastic measures!!!

Branch: What?!

Viva: We're getting *slow mo* out of here!

Everything seemed to move in slow motion as Viva's hand made its way towards the hustle button.

Branch: *slow mo* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

BroZone: *slow mo* YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

Tiny: *slow mo* DOOOOOOO ITTTTTTT!!!!!!

Too late, Viva pressed the button.

Branch: ...We're dead.

Rhonda immediately started moving faster before disappearing into a star shaped wormhole escaping the intense meteor shower.

Poppy sat in her cell listening to everything going on around her, not that she really had much of a choice. She was still processing everything that happened, just earlier, she was having the best birthday ever, now she had been abducted and was being taken to who knows where.

Sonar: Dad, are we there yet?!

Zarynx: Not yet, Sonar, we'll be there shortly! Zara!

Zara: Yes sir?

Zarynx: Get the extraction chamber ready, and be sure to activate it by the time we get back!

Zara: B-But the chamber is-

Zarynx: DO IT!!!!

Extraction chamber? What were they talking about? Whatever it was couldn't be good, what were they planning? What was the master plan? She was never told. Poppy saw the Nebulan prince stick his tongue out at her and make obnoxious faces.

Sonar: See you around, circus freak!

Circus freak?! Okay, that did it, she needed to get out of there ASAP. Poppy looked around gripping her hands onto the bars of her cell. Wait a minute...no keyhole, what kind of cell was this?

Poppy: How do I get out of here...?

the pop queen glanced at her surroundings for a few moments, then saw something that could lead to her escape. Of course, the vents! Why didn't she think of that before? Poppy took a screwdriver out of her hair and unscrewed the deflector. She looked around to make sure no one was watching and carefully slipped through the vent.

The star shaped wormhole spit Rhonda out and everyone tumbled inside her. Tiny fell into a cookie jar and Spruce fell on top of Floyd.

Branch: Okay...let's never press that again...

Spruce: Really? I never get tired of that!

Floyd: *strained* I kinda do...!
