Branch continued to walk through the forest until... SNAP! He walked right into a trap. He was dangling upside down, thinking how to get out. He saw I pointy stick near a small cave-like rock and tried to swing towards it. After finally getting it, he heard a small voice.
???: (whispers) Is it safe to come out?
Branch: What?
???: Are there any trolls around?
Branch: Uhhh, no?
???: Yay!!!
A small wolf pup jumped out, scaring Branch and banged into a tree.
???: Hi, I'm Keith. I guess you didn't smell the trap, I smelled it from mile away. You must be completely humiliated. (whispers) Don't worry... I won't tell anyone.
Branch: What?
Keith: You look like you need help. Let me try. (grabs the pointy stick)
Branch: No no no wait-
But Keith was already hitting him, trying to get him down.
Branch: Stop it!
Keith: It's no use. The only way is to chew your leg off.
Branch: (annoyed) I don't need some stupid pup's help, I just need the stick.
Keith: Oh, sure, here!
Branch: No! I'll do it myself. Put it back where you found it!
Keith: Suit yourself.
Fast forward...
Branch: Don't you have somewhere to be?
Keith: Yeah, Howler's Rock. How 'bout this, I get you down, and we go together. Deal?
Branch: Fine, if you can magically get me down, I'll talk you to this - this
Keith: Howler's Rock.
Branch: Whatever. But if you can't, turn away and never come back. Ever!
Keith: Swear?
Branch: Sure.
Keith: Tail swear!
Branch: Yeah, yeah, tail swear. But this is a smart troll trap, and you're just a dumb little wolf pup. There's no way you're just going to -
Suddenly, Keith chewed on a vine that held Branch up. Branch landed on the ground with a hard thud.
Keith: Cool! My bedtime is an hour after sunset, but I feel it should be...
Keith sniffed the air.
Keith: Run!!!
Branch: Good riddens.
Branch smelled the air too, and it smelled familiar. John Dory hid behind a tree with his spear in hand. Wrapped around the spear was Branch's totem of a wolf. Branch turned around to see his brother.
Branch: John? John Dory, you found me! *Woof woof woof* You wouldn't believe what a nightmare this has been!
John Dory raised his spear, ready to attack.
Branch: John?! It's me! Branch!
JD: Aaahhh!!!
Branch ran for his life, not understanding why his brother was acting so weird towards him. He saw a cave and ran in.
Keith: Is he gone? I thought I heard-
Branch quickly grabbed him so John wouldn't hear them. After John Dory left, he finally relaxed. This wasn't like his brother at all. What had changed?
