Chapter 2 - Poppy's POV

Poppy's POV - It was dark, i'm so scared. What's gonna happen? The Pouch opened and the light came in like i'd never seen it before. Then, the Bergen's hands reached in and grabbed me. I saw a Bergen with a crown on his head. The King i assumed. He gasped "You found a troll!" He said before he reached out for me. "Please don't do this" I thought to myself. He was gonna eat me. This was it, goodbye cruel world. I braced for impact.... But he didn't eat me. Chef slapped his hand away from me. "So this means, I might actually get to be happy!" He continued in glee. Were the bergens so heartless that they'd actually eat a living person alive? Jeez well I've got a lot to take it. "Yes but of course everyone else will be miserable but thats not your concern" Chef said with me still in her hand. "I am their king so maybe it is..." He replied. I knew he was the king. "What exactly are you proposing? Bringing back Trollstice?" Chef suggested. I had butterflies in my stomach. Eating me was scary enough, but all my friends, my dad, my whole kind? No, that's way too much. "Yes! Thats exactly what I'm proposing!" The king replied. No, this cant be happening. I don't know what my emotions are, Am i scared, upset, angry or what? I just don't know. With me still in Chef's hands, she walked into the kitchen and threw me into a cage. There was a maid there. "You, scullery maid, whats your name?" Chef asked rudely. "Uh Bridget!" The maid replied. "Congrats Idget, you work for me now. See those dishes, go downstairs and start scrubbing!" Chef ordered. I started panting and pacing around the cage. "Calm down Poppy, what would Creek do? Oh yeah! COOOMMMB" I said as i remember he'd always comb his hair when he was panicking. Chef then approached me and said "That's right, the calm troll is a tasty troll and you're a key ingredient in all my Troll recipes," She said as she showed me a book full of troll foods. That just made me feel even more bad. "By this time tomorrow i'll be queen, and all of Bergen Town will get exactly what they deserve, TRUE HAPPINESS!" She said again letting out an evil laugh. All I could think to myself was "what's gonna happen now, is there a chance i can escape? What do I do? Is anyone coming to rescue me?" It was so frustrating.
