As Branch flowed down the river, an old troll found him and noticed he was still breathing. Carefully, she took him to an old broken down pod. When he saw her, he didn't want her to know she was awake, so he tried playing dead. When he turned his head back there, she was staring at him with a bowl of herbal medicine.

Branch: Yeah, like you're going to make me drink that.

She poked a special pressure point on his throat to make his mouth open when he drank the gross medicine.

Branch: Eugh!!! *cough, cough*

Old Troll: If I had wanted you dead, I would've let you die.

Branch: Why save me? *looks around* Where am I? What is this place?

Old Troll: I'm surprised you remember so little. Of course, you were so little when it all happened.

Branch: *hears loud screams* Ahh! *grabs head while walking outside*

Old Troll: Maybe you do remember.

Branch: Remember what? It's just a stupid nightmare.

Old Troll: Nightmare? Or memory?

Branch looked in a puddle and saw a baby version of himself.

*Flashback*

A green haired troll was playing catch with a pink haired troll, and when they saw him, they had him look up at the sky at kites. Baby Branch looked up in awe and happily crawled to his brothers with a stuffed crocodile in hand.

*End (pt 1)*

Old Troll: This was a thriving village. Young Spike was eager to rule Rock City and more, but I foretold of someone who would stand in his way... a Pop-Rock Troll. But I never could have foretold what came next...

*Flashback*

Baby Branch was crying as everything was on fire and trolls were screaming while running away.

Baby Branch: * scared and crying loudly*

Spike: *points at baby Branch* Get them all!

Baby Branch: *gasps!*

Just as the rock trolls were about to hurt him, his brother with green hair stepped in front to fight them off. Meanwhile, the pink haired brother picks up baby Branch quickly to get out of danger and follow the other trolls.

Green hair brother: Take our brother and run as fast as you can! Go!

While the other brother runs, baby Branch drops his stuffed crocodile and cries as it gets piled with debris.

*End (pt 2)*

Branch finds the stuffed crocodile under burnt rubbled.

Branch: *sees him as a baby crying and reaching for the pink haired troll* Ah! *sighs*

Old Troll: Stop fighting. Let it flow.

Branch did special movements as the rest of his memories came back.

*Flashback*

The pink haired troll ran as fast as he could while carrying baby Branch. The symbols on the trees matched with what the rock trolls armor was. The rock trolls were gaining on them. As one rock troll was about to catch them, the pink haired troll zig zagged to lose them. Still running, he manages to see a wagon carrying apple crates. So he went down in the gulch and placed baby Branch in one.

Baby Branch: *coos* *starts to cry*

Brother: Shh, shh, *cups his brother's face and kisses his forehead*

Baby Branch: *coos* *giggles*

Brother: *sadly smiles while backs away*

Baby Branch cries again, arms reached out as his brother waves his arms announcing to the rock trolls where he is.

Baby Branch: *crying loudly*

*End (pt 3)*

Old Troll: *puts a hand on his shoulder* Your story may not have had such a happy beginning, but that doesn't make you who you are. It is the rest of your story that does.

*Flashback*

King Peppy finds baby Branch and raises him as his own, Branch trains as a knight to protect his village from danger with friends he made over the years, and falls in love with his best friend Poppy.
