TROLLS: what if branch's brothers never left

Brozone: the giver

The book explains about the Giver.

"Years ago, on the night of the Harvest Moon, a mysterious Troll paid our village a visit and delivered gifts to everyone, becoming known only as... the Giver. Every Harvest Moon since has been the same, leaving presents under the veil of night"

"Yay!"

"Which everyone loves..." poppy closes the book, "But it drives me completely insane!" The confused crowd chatters, "When you give a gift, you're supposed to receive a thank-you card. It's what separates us from the animals. And this Troll is making a mockery of the whole thing" She throws the book down, "Ugh!" The crowd gasps in surprise.

Clay Whispering to DJ Suki, "ok I think we might missed a step we don't go to all of the troll meetings but..,Does she do this every year?"

"Pretty much. I just nap through it. Thank goodness, I learned to sleep with my eyes open, right?" She snores with her eyes open and Clay gasps.

"Ok...creepy" John pulls him away.

"Well, listen up, Giver. You may have escaped me in the past, but this year I've rigged the entire village with hidden alarms" Smidge pulls a vine and flower alarms blare, "Which means I will catch you and will get what's coming to you"

Smidge is Holding a purple baseball bat, "Yeah!"

But Poppy is Holding a thank-you card, "This!" She opens the card and it plays a party horn sound and music.

"Uh, yeah, that" Poppy puts the card in her hair.

"So this is your last chance. Come forward now and take your thank-you like a Troll" The crowd stays still and spruce laughs, "Something funny, spruce?"

"Yes, you" spruce says.

"Hm..."

"Poppy if "the Gifter" wants to remain anonymous, shouldn't we respect that?" John says.

"Yeah I think this might be a little too much for a troll who just gives gifts, I mean what's wrong with that" Floyd says.

Then Clay looks around, "hey John, where's branch?"

"He said he wasn't feeling well so he stayed in the hideout" spruce says.

"Come on let's go check on him" John motions them and they left.

"It's "the Giver." If you're gonna be a know-it-all, get your facts straight"

"Uh, Poppy, just did a hair count, and Satin and Chenille are absent"

"Absent?! On the Harvest Moon? Let's go, Smidge. We've got a new lead suspect"

"Uh, there's two of them"

"We've got a new lead of suspects"

Down In the hideout as the guys arrived, "hey branch sorry to barge in we just wanna see if you were-"

But they see branch was holding a present, he got startled and nearly dropped the present and hides it behind his back.

"Guys-I-uh-I can explain"

They were all shocked but John, "whoa what's with all the presents" John asked as he picks one up to examine it.

"Uh John" spruce calls him.

"Not now, these seems like a lot of presents, wait a minute...are you...helping the giver branch"

Everyone facepalm, "branch isn't helping the giver, he is the giver John Dory" Clay says.

Then John gasped, "wait what?!"

"Branch? You're the giver?" Spruce asked.

Branch made a nervous face, "I'm sorry guys"
