As the Trolls were walking, Poppy saw a fortress and assumed it was where Sparky was being held
Cybil held his heart and smiled
"This is it." Cybil said
"Well let's go!" Poppy said
Poppy then yawned. Cybil smiled and kneeled down to her height
"Awe you getting sweepy Pwoppy?" Cybil asked
Poppy rubbed her eyes
"Of course not! I'm never tired." Poppy said
She yawned again
"Don't deny it Poppy. You can barely keep your eyes open." Branch said
"I'm not tired!" Poppy said
"HAH WEAK!!" Knox and Tiny said
They gave each other a high five
Branch held Poppy in his arms and rocked her to sleep. Poppy grew more tired as she fell asleep
"Get some sleep for tomorrow." Cybil said
Cybil stayed awake as everyone else went to sleep. He watched the area with his life. He wouldn't let Poppy get hurt again. He couldn't bare it
————————————————
At midnight, Cybil had fallen asleep sitting on a rock. Branch heard a sound and jolted up.
He saw a Troll approach them
"Guys! Guys! WAKE UP!!" Branch yelled
Cybil jolted awake
"Whattt?" Barb asked
"We're tireddd." Knox and Tiny
"It's ok son." Guy said
Poppy and DJ groaned in their sleep and sat up. Demo wanted to go back to sleep
The Troll approached them as it was revealed to be Cole
"Grass Walters?" Barb and Knox said confused
"You know him?" Demo asked
"Yeah we do." Barb said
"Umm actually my name is Cole." Cole said
"YOU TOLD US A FAKE NAME?!! DO YOU THINK WE'RE STUPID?!!" Barb asked
"No! No! Of course not." Cole said
"THEN WHY GIVE US A FAKE NAME?!!" Barb asked
Barb grabbed Cole and was about to punch him, but didn't want to hurt her hand since Poppy broke it
"Please I'm not here to fight." Cole said
Barb let him go. Poppy looked at Cole who looked away in shame
Cole decided to listen to himself
"Look! I didn't want to do any of that stuff to you. With the snake, t-the ice, and the wolf! Oh! And turning Poppy into a kid! I didn't mean any of it. I was forced by Violet." Cole said
Everyone looked at him
"I just didn't want to hurt Barb or her son!" Cole said
Barb looked at Cole confused
"Hurt me and my son? What? Why?" Barb asked
"I- I love you Barb!" Cole said
"Sorry dude but...I'm already seeing someone." Barb said
"I get that. What's his name?" Cole asked
"Her. Her name. And her name is Carol. My soon to be fiancé, and I have a kid anyway, so it was definitely gonna be no." Barb told him
"OHHHH REJECTED!!!" Tiny yelled, blowing his air horns
"Tiny! Not now!" Guy said
"Anyway! I'm just sorry for the trouble I've caused." Cole said
Poppy suddenly started twitching and then fell backwards. Branch caught her
"That stuff is wearing off." Cole said
Poppy then returned to her normal age, half asleep
"I have a plan. I can block out how Violet spies on you, and get Poppy to a hiding spot. When I wave a cloth Poppy can enter through the bushes. In the meantime though. I'll pretend to capture you guys." Cole explained
"I like it!" Knox said
"Yeah, but don't hurt Poppy." Branch said
Poppy fell asleep on Branch's lap. Everyone fell asleep except Barb and Cole. They just stared at each other
"Poppy is something else isn't she? Way stronger than Violet thinks." Cole said
"Don't try and start smalltak with me." Barb said
Barb took Knox out of her hair and tucked him in beside Tiny
"I just don't want anything to change between us." Cole said
"Yeah, yeah, sure. How can I even trust you?! How do not know you're gonna sell us up the river?!" Barb asked
"Just trust me." Cole said taking her hand
Barb smacked his hand away with her left hand
"Don't. Touch me." Barb said, walking away
Cole went after her
"Please. I know I lied before, but I promise I won't this time." Cole said
"Yeah sure buddy whatever you say." Barb said with sarcasm
"I'd never hurt you. I didn't want to hurt you or Knox." Cole said
"You keep my sons name out of your mouth." Barb told him
"Look please. I had to lie to protect you." Cole said
"Protect me?!" Barb asked with a smile, not believing a thing he said
"You serious?!! Like are you actually joking right now?!" Barb asked
"No. I'm speaking from my heart." Cole said
Barb rolled her eyes and walked away. Cole continued to chase her
"Please. I don't want to argue. Just listen to me!" Cole said
"Why would I listen to a liar?" Barb asked him
Cole understood why she didn't trust him, but she was straight towards....
"Barb please! Let's go back!" Cole said
"I'm not listening to you. I'm gonna take my walk, then I'll go back to sleep with Knox." Barb said
"No! No you don't understand!" Cole said
"Oh I understand PERFECTLY!! You want to go back so YOU CAN TURN US IN TO YOUR LITTLE GIRLFRIEND!!" Barb yelled
"No that's not true-"
"Well I'm not gonna listen to you! I'm gonna listen to mysel-"
Barb felt a sharp pain from her hand. She turned around to see Violet with two other Trolls who were holding onto her
"You lost?" Violet asked
Barb just looked at her
"Good job Cole." Violet said, finally getting his name right
Barb looked back at Cole
"I knew it..." Barb said
The two Trolls took Barb away
"You said you wouldn't hurt her!" Cole said
"She was basically attacking you. I did you a favor." Violet said, walking away
Cole sighed and followed them
