Trolls: ~The Legacy~

Chapter 28

~Back In Trollstopia~

Poppy And Barb Waited In Misty Meadows For The Arrival Of The Hooded Stranger.

Barb Dumped The Bag Of Gems Collected On The Grass.

"That's All Of Them.."
Poppy Told Barb Sadly.

Barb Sat In Front Of The Gems.
"Okaaaay! Let's Count How Many Gems We Got!"

Barb Started Counting The Gems.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 12, 14...."

Poppy Turned Her Away To The Other Way And Took Out Branch's Hug Time Watch.

Poppy Looked At It Again And Started To Get Emotional, Missing Him.

Poppy Sniffs And Closes Her Eyes, Having A Slow Flashback.

~~~

~Flashback~

"OOF!"
Little Poppy And Little Branch Knocked Into Each Other.

Poppy Fell Back And Branch Fell Back, Dropping His Sticks.

"Owww..."
Both Groan And Rub Their Heads.

Poppy Saw Branch.

And Branch Saw Poppy.

~End Of Flashback~

Poppy Sighed And Looked Down.

Barb Finished Counting.
"28 Gems! WHOO! We Should Be Gem Collectors Like Thanos!"

Poppy Turned To Barb.
"Maybe We Shouldn't Have Left Branch.."

Barb Scoffs.
"Pfff- He'll Be Backkkk, Slushious Is Still At The North Pole And Can Easily Fly Back. No Biggie"

Poppy Sighed Again And Her Ears Droop.

Barb Shrugs.
"Plus, He Needs Some Time To Cool Off Anyway. What He Said Was Totally Out Of Line! Especially To His Woman!......Despite The Angst, That Was Good.....Imma Snail Mail My Friend San About That"

"He Wasn't Out Of Line!....I-I-I Was..."
Poppy Twirled Her Hair Sadly.

"Branch Cares So Much For Me. And You. And Everyone In Trollstopia! He Just Wants Us Safe.....And I'm Pushing That Away For Some Stupid Legacy!"
Poppy Said.

Barb Kneels And Pats Her Back.
"No No, Actually, You Were Both Out Of Line.......In A Caring Sort Of Way"

Poppy Looked Up At Barb.
"What Do You...Mean By That?"

"Boy Toy Wants To Protect You And Everyone And Hide From All Of This. While You Pop-Squeak, Wanna Protect Him And Everyone By Fixing The Legacy Problem"
Barb Told Her.

Poppy Thought About That And Looked Down Some More.

"Now Doesn't That Sound Like Love? What Trollstopia Should Be Known For. Love"
Barb Smiled.

Poppy Nodded Slowly With A Slight Tear Coming Down Her Cheek.

Barb Wiped Poppy's Tear.
"Good, Now, Wipe Away The Tears.....And Let's Focus On Saving Our Legacy"
