3 Weeks went by. Creek had apologized to every troll in troll village and had regained their trust... Except Branch's. He was still very skeptical about Creek. But, nonetheless, he had to agree with Poppy because... He hates to make her angry. More sleepless nights came and went for Poppy. Until Branch came up with a genius night when Poppy shoved her pillow against her face to deafen the sound of Jasper's cries. "Uh, Poppy. Think logically. We're trolls. Why don't you just sing a lullaby to him?" Branch asked. "How did I not think of that?! Branch, you're a genius!" Poppy replied before getting out of bed and going to Jasper's room. "How did she survive without me?" Branch said to himself. Poppy walked into Jasper's room where his cries died down at the sight of his mother. Poppy picked him up and started rocking him slowly in her arms. She began singing a lullaby.

Hush little baby don't say a word 

Mama's gonna get you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird don't sing

Mama's gonna get your Daddy to sing

And if Daddy's singing is not as good as mine

Mama's gonna hold you up so you can shine

And if you go and steal my crown

You'll still be the sweetest baby in this town.

As she finished up the lullaby, Jasper lay fast asleep in his mother's arms. Poppy chuckled quietly and laid him back in his crib. She kissed him on his forehead and booped his nose. "Goodnight love." She said quietly before leaving his room and going back to her and Branch's. "He asleep?" Branch asked. "Yep. I can't believe I didn't think of that before." Poppy replied getting back into bed and falling asleep. Little did they know that there was someone lurking nearby. Someone they feared the most. Someone... Like Chef.
