Today was a special day in Troll Village. King Peppy and Queen Azalea were having their baby girl. They named her Princess Poppy.

The day Azalea left the hospital, she and Peppy introduced the baby princess to all troll village, welcoming her to the village.

5 years later..

Poppy was officially five years old, and she made many friends.

Their names were DJ Suki, but they just called her DJ. Biggie, Satin and Chenille, Cooper, Smidge, Guy Diamond, and Creek.

One day, the friends were all playing games with each other outside.

"Hey Poppy! Catch!" DJ yelled to her, passing a ball to her, which she caught successfully.

"Yay! I caught it! I caught it!" She jumped happily up and down, preparing to throw it back when she felt something touch her shoulder.

"Nice catch!" Creek held his hand on her shoulder.

The princess smiled and replied, "Thanks Creek!", quickly turning her attention back to DJ and threw the ball back at her.

"You're really pretty Poppy." Creek said a bit hesitantly, scratching the back of his head.

Poppy giggled.

"I know Creek. You tell me that everyday." She caught the ball again, not even having to look, and threw it back.

He laughs as well, even though he was blushing in embarrassment.

As DJ passed it back to Poppy, she took a glance passed her as she saw what looked like a little blue troll walking through the forest.

"Who's.. that?"

"Poppy! It's time to come home!"

The princess turned to see her father calling for her.

"Oh. Bye you guys. I'll see you later." Poppy threw the ball back to DJ and waved them off as she ran home.

"Bye Poppy!" They all said waving.

~♡~

"Mm! Is mommy cooking again?" Poppy licked her lips and her stomach growled while inhaling the foods her mother was preparing.

Peppy chuckled and picked her up and sat her down in the chair at the table, kissing her forehead.

"Yes she is darling." He sat in a chair and scooted to the table.

Le time skip to some yummy food

"Food's done!" Azalea exclaimed, carrying two plates and setting them down, then grabbing the other one for herself.

"Right! Let's dig in!" Peppy quickly changed the subject and grabbed his fork.

Poppy ate her food, but with her hands. She's not very used to using forks.

While eating, she continued to look outside.

I wonder who that blue troll was.....

~♡~

The next day, Poppy decided to wait outside for her friends as she was playing with her ball.

But she stopped bouncing it when...

She saw him again.

He was walking alone in the forest again.

I want to talk to him..

Poppy ran up to the blue troll, but quietly.

"Hi!!"

Startled, the blue troll let out a small yelp and turned around. A pink troll with... cute freckles.

"H-Hi?"

"What's your name? I saw you walking through the forest yesterday."

"My name's Branch."

"Hi! I'm Poppy!" He waved her hand in his face which he found a bit imitating, but that was just how little Poppy was. She was little and really didn't mean harm.

I'm talking to the one and only princess Poppy??...

"Uhh hi, I'm Branch." Little Branch waved slowly, one hand behind his back.

Poppy was silent for a bit, staring at him, making Branch's face fall.

"Uh, what?"

"You're.... shy, aren't you?" She smirked playfully, wiggling a finger in his face.

"Uhh.. kinda..?" He tried to dodge her finger by moving side to side until she poked him in the nose, giggling.

"Don't worry! It's okay to be shy! You can come meet my friends and we can play with each other!!"

"Friends?.." He hadn't heard that word in a long time..

"Yeah! Come on!" She took his hand and ran back, seeing her friends were waiting for her.

~♡~

"Hi guys!"

Her friends turned to her hearing her voice and ran over to her.

"There you are! Where were you silly?" Satin hugged her.

"Guys, I want you to meet Branch!" Poppy hugged him from the side, making him blush a bit.

"Uh.. hi..." He waved slowly again.

"Hi Branch!" All the snack pack greeted, except Creek, but he still waved.

"He's shy, so be nice to him!"

"Well hey there Branch! Any friend of Poppy's is a friend of mine!" DJ walked up to him holding out her hand for him to shake it.

"Uh, heh, thanks.." He took her hand but she shook a bit rapidly.

"Okay! Let's play ball! But teams this time" Poppy picked up her ball.

She glanced at Branch.

"You know how to play, right?"

"Well.... uh... no, not really-"

"Hahaha! Wow, he doesn't know how to play 'catch'? It's such an easy game! Do you live under a rock or something?"

Everyone looked at Creek, except Branch. He just looked down.

"Hey! That's mean Creek." Poppy glared at him a bit.

"Sorry. I was only joking.." The purple troll lied.

"Oh, okay. Anyway, we can teach you how to play if you want Branch!"

"No, you know what? It's okay, you guys can play. I'll just watch..." Branch said, almost muttering.

"Are you sure?" Poppy's face and voice softly began to grow worried.

He nodded, giving a reassuring smile.

"Okay.. well if you want to play just let us know!"

Then they began to play.

Watching them, Branch sighed and began to looked the other way.

Are these my right friends?....

A few months later...

It was only five days until Poppy's sixth birthday.

She was extremely excited.

Peppy and Azalea helped her pass out invitations to all troll village.

Then came her friends.

"Here you go guys!" She handed them all invitations.

"Oh my gooosh I can't WAAAIT!!! Can you Mr. Dinkles?!!!" Biggie squealed.

"Mew." The little worm said, making everyone laugh.

"Well, I think that's everyone!" Peppy put his hands on his hips.

Poppy began to think then. Wait, she forgot one person...

"Wait! There's one more person daddy!" The little pink troll pulled on his vest.

"Oh? Are you sure darling?" He turned to her, fully facing her.

"Yes, he's uhh-"

"Hey Poppy."

She quickly turned around to see Branch smiling and waving.

"Branch!" She gave him a small hug.

He didn't hug back, but he blushed.

"You're just in time! Here you go!" She gave him an invitation.

"Uhh what is... this?" He said examining it.

"It's an invitation silly! You're invited to my birthday party in four days!" The little troll giggled.

"Oh, uhh, thanks!"

"Come on sweetheart, it's time to go- ohhhh. I see you've made a new friend!" Azalea glanced at Branch and ruffled Poppy's hair.

"Yeah, I met him yesterday. Mommy, daddy, this is Branch!"

"Hello Branch! It's nice seeing Poppy make more new friends!" Azalea ruffled his hair as well.

"Hehe, uh, yeah..."

"He's shy."

"Well it was very nice meeting you Branch. I hope to see you at my daughter's birthday party. Come on sweetheart." Peppy finally spoke.

"Bye Branch!" She waved as she took grasp of her mother and father's hands.

Le time skip to four days later~

L

ittle Poppy was preparing for her birthday party as she finished putting on her dress and bow.

"Poppy! Your friends are here!"

"Coming mommy!"

The princess quickly made her way to the front door and opened it, revealing all her friends.

"Eeeek! Happy birthday Poppy! You look so pretty!" DJ squealed and ran over to her, hugging her.

"Hehe. Thanks DJ!"

~♡~

The party was started, and all of Troll village was having a blast.

Poppy would normally be dancing, but she was looking around for a certain someone.

Maybe he's just running a bit late....?

"Hey, uh, Poppy?"

Poppy stopped and turned around to see Creek.

"Oh, hi Creek!"

"Do you wanna dance with me?"

"Oh, well, uhh..."

She looked around again, then back at Creek.

"Okay."

Poppy took his hands and swung him around, giggling.

Creek laughed as well as they both danced and jumped around.

"This is fu-"

THUD!!

~♡~

"Ugh... it's terrible..." Branch has finished attempting making Poppy a card, with a flower inside.

He asked his grandmother if he could go to Poppy's party and she happily said "yes".

"I might as well just give her this flower." He muttered walking slowly, but stopped when he heard a loud vibrating sound.

He turned around to find a huge ugly foot in the distance coming his way.

~♡~

Everything stopped when a large thud was heard.

Trolls exclaimed and murmured at the sound.

THUD!! THUD!!

Everyone looked to find a mysterious but terrifying and ginormous creature standing above them, a devilish grin on their face.

"Oh no.." Peppy whispered..

As the creature reached its hand down to the trolls, everyone began screaming and running.

Poppy quickly ran to find her father and as soon as she did, he scooped her in his arms and ran.

"Daddy!! What is that thing?! And why does it want us?!"

"It's called a bergen sweetheart, and I don't know why it wants us!"

Peppy gathered all of Poppy's friends with him and they all took cover in a bush.

It was disastrous. Trolls were being taken away and everything was getting destroyed.

"Wait! Where's mommy?!"

"Oh no... AZALEA!" Peppy put her down and ran out the bush.

"Daddy!"

Azalea desperately tried to look for her family in fear, when she heard someone yell her name.

"AZALEA! RUN!"

"Peppy?!-"

Before she could do or say anything else, the queen was scooped up in the bergen's hand.

"Ahh! Peppy!! Run!!"

"No!! I-"

"RUN!! I.... I love you!! You and Poppy!! With all my heart!! Now GO!!"

The bergen tried to grab Peppy, but he ducked and ran back into the bush.

The bergen growled and left, satisfied with the number of trolls it has grasped in its hands.

Peppy came back with a sorrowful expression on his face.

"Daddy?..... W-Where's mommy.....?"

Peppy shook his head and tear began to fall out. He picked up the princess and held her close.

"I'm sorry baby...... mommy..... mommy's not here anymore...."

"But... but daddy.." Poppy's voice cracked, as she began to sob as well.

Poppy's friends lowered their heads in pity, looking at the grass.

"Poor Poppy...." Chenille muttered.

~♡~

"Ah!" Branch exclaimed and found a spot to hide in while it the big creature passed by.

When it was finally gone, he fled back home in terror. He was worried about Poppy and the others, but he was too scared to go back.

When he reached his home, he called for his grandmother, but she wasn't there. Or his home.

"Oh no..." The little blue troll walked up to his destroyed home.

"The big creature took, Grandma.... and my home...." Little Branch fell on his knees and sobbed.
