Branch was looking for Poppy in a panic. The Trolls tried they're best to calm him down. Prince D and Trollex looked in the trees but couldn't find Poppy anywhere

Val honestly wasn't even trying. She looked under tons of tiny leaves

Barb stood beside Branch. They both looked for Poppy. Branch checked almost everywhere in a panic. Barb noticed the worry he released

"Uhh Branch.." Barb began

She put her hand on Branch's shoulder

"WHAT?!!" Branch asked, looking at her

Barb moved her hand

"Calm down man. We'll find her we just have to keep looking." Barb said

Branch sighed. He stood up and went to the others

The Trolls were talking. Branch looked at the ground and saw footprints from who took Poppy

"Guys." Branch spoke

They al looked at him

"What is it Branch?" Trollex asked

"Someone left these footprints." Branch said

"Those could anybody's." Val said

"I agree with Val." Barb said

Branch picked up a piece of hair and showed them. It was Poppy's hair

"This is Poppy's." Branch said

The Trolls looked at the hair then at each other

Poppy woke up and frantically looked for Branch and her friends. The Trolls who took her came into the room. Poppy back away from them. She wanted Branch to come and help her. Where was she? Who were these Trolls?

"Hey, hey calm down Princess." Skylar said

Poppy looked at him and went to the corner of the room

"W-Who are you?" Poppy asked

"I'm Skylar, this is Taylor, and this is Cybil." Skylar said

"Why couldn't you take my friends?! Why did you take only me?! I WANT TO SEE MY MOTHER!!" Poppy yelled

"Hey whoa calm down." Cybil said

"We were ordered by Mr. Shadow to get you to your mother faster. We're going you a favor." Taylor said

Taylor put his hand on Poppy's shoulder. Poppy looked at him and felt a slight blush spread across her face

"Have some berries." Cybil said

Poppy took the berries. She ate them and they went to go cross the river

"Are you three friends with mom?" Poppy asked

"Yeah!" Skylar said

"Her name isn't Lyric though." Cybil said

Poppy looked at them confused

"What do you mean?" Poppy asked

"Her real name is Tulip." Taylor said

Poppy felt a slight blush across her face as Taylor spoke. She snapped herself out of it and continued to follow them

"We'll be back soon." Skylar said

Both Skylar and Cybil left. Leaving both Poppy and Taylor alone

Meanwhile The Trolls continued to follow the footprints. Branch looked at the footprints on the ground. His friends we're talking. They heard a noise and immediately stopped

Branch took a stick out of his hair and stood in front of them cautiously. They saw Skylar and Cybil come from the trees

"Are you guys looking for Ploppy?" Cybil asked

"It's Poppy! Remember that!!" Branch said, gripping onto the stick

"Oh! She's very far from here. She's on her way to her mother as we speak." Skylar said

The Trolls looked at the two in shock

"No..." Branch said

The Trolls saw tears coming out from his eyes

"No!! We said we'd help her!!" Branch said

"Hey calm down man. We'll find her." Barb said

Branch just stared at Skylar and Cybil

"Oh we forgot to introduce ourselves." Cybil said

Skylar smiled

"Howdy y'all! The names Skylar, but my friends call me Sky, and this is Cybil." Skylar said

"Do y'all Trolls wanna have some fun?" Skylar and Cybil asked at the same time

A creature called Snake came out of the ground and charged at the Trolls. Barb and Branch took out a stick and a guitar. Branch threw a stick at its eye and Barb shot a red blast from the guitar

Cybil and Skylar ran away, laughing. Their creature would hold the Trolls back and they knew that

————————————————

Poppy and Taylor walked beside each other. Poppy couldn't help but stare at him. She tried her best to stop

"Stop it Poppy! You're with Branch. Don't go simping for a random Troll you just met." Poppy thought

"Hey." Taylor spoke

"AHHH!!"

Taylor looked at Poppy

"Ok anyway. Why do you want to see your mother so much?" Taylor asked

"I guess...I've never met her before. My dad always kept her a secret." Poppy said

"I get that. Well you'll meet your mother. I promise you that." Taylor said

Poppy smiled. Both her and Taylor continued to walk. Soon Skylar and Cybil came from the tree and walked with them

"Did you hold them off?" Taylor asked, whispering into their ears

The two of them nodded. Taylor smiled and they continued to walk
