 It was a quiet and peaceful night  in the troll village, all throughout the village, the trolls were in their homes fast asleep and dreaming  happy dreams.

Well all of the trolls except one very young troll. In the pod where peppy and his daughter poppy lived, in her bedroom, poppy tossed and turned whimpering in her sleep. Her eyes were squeezed tight. 

"No, no please, I'm only 6 years old please no. no." Poppy whimpered in her sleep as she continued to experience her nightmare until finally she sat up with a start and a scream.

The scream reached peppy's ears, waking him up, the second his daughter's screams reached his ears, peppy leapt out of bed and ran to his daughter's room. 

"Poppy, what's wrong are you..." peppy stopped at the sight he saw; his 6 year old daughter was sitting up in bed crying.

Gently, peppy walked over to poppy and hugged her. his daughter's wails gradually became sniffles and hiccups. "I'm sorry daddy, i had a bad dream." she whimpered.

Peppy gently held poppy close to him.  "It's ok sweetie, everyone gets a nightmare every once in a while, even me."

poppy looked at her father in surprise. "You get bad dreams too daddy?" she asked.

Peppy nodded chuckling. "yes poppy even i get bad dreams."

Poppy sniffled. "I dreamed the bergens found us and...and they were taking everyone  one of them cornered me and picked me up. he was going to drop me into his mouth and i was so scared daddy." poppy began to cry again."

peppy held his daughter close to him and began to rub her back.

"Shhh, there there poppy it was only a dream. Everything is going to be ok. Daddy's here, daddy's got you. You are safe poppy. We are all safe  the bergens will never find us and if they do ill protect all of us. you don't need to be afraid."

Poppy slowly began to calm down although she was shaking a bit. Peppy smiled and picked up his daughter and carried her into the kitchen where he got her a cup of milk and some cookies.

poppy smiled gratefully at her father and nibbled on her cookies.

soon the cookies were eaten and the milk had been drunk and peppy was carrying his daughter to his room where he tucked her in bed. he climbed into bed next to him and held his sleeping child close to him.

"I'll always protect you poppy, i promise." he whispered before he also fell asleep.
