Meanwhile In Troll Village...

Twig Pouts On His Bed.

Poppy Knocks And Comes In.
"Hey Sweetie"

Twig Looked Away.
"Hey Mom..."

Poppy Stepped In With A Plate.
"Made Your Favorite Chicken Nugget Sandwiches, In Case You're Hungry"

"Not Hungry..."
Twig Said.

Poppy Sighs And Sat Next To Twig.

"Look Twig, I Know You're Very Confident And Open To Be A Future King. But That Doesn't Mean You Get To Go Around Starting Danger For Yourself"
Poppy Said.

Twig Turned To Her.
"But You've Been In Danger Plenty Of Times! I Was Sure I Can Handle It Like You. But Uncle Branch Is Holding Me Back From Proving Myself Worty!"

Poppy Scoots Twig Close To Her.
"I Know It's Hard To Understand, Branch Is Very Overprotective Of You. You Have No Idea How Protective He Was When You Were A Baby"

"Well He Needs To See I'm Not A Baby Anymore, I'm 9. I Need To Show I'm King Material"
Twig Said.

"One Day You'll Understand"
Poppy Said.

Twig Frowns.

"Now I Expect You To Apologize To Branch, Am I Clear?"
Poppy Said.

Twig Nods.

"Good, Now Eat Those Sandwiches Cause I'm Not Wastin It"
Poppy Shut The Door.

Twig Ate A Sandwich.
"Eh, Could Use More Sugar"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Twig Wandered Around The Village Towards Branch And Frond's Bunker.

"Hard To Understand....Pff"
Twig Kicked A Rock.

"I'm Capable As King! Why Can't They Just Understand....I Can Do It"
Twig Looked At His Reflection In A Puddle.

"If Only They Saw My Potential..."
A Tear Came Down Twig's Cheek And Into The Puddle.

Twig Then Looked Up And Saw A Sign Saying:

⚠️ Danger Warning! Wormhole Fields Beyond This Point!⚠️

Twig Had A Determined Look.
"I Can Handle Danger"

Twig Ran Into Wormhole Fields.

Twig Looked Around And Saw Nothing.

"See I Can Handle Danger! There's Not Even One Wormhole Here! Ha! Serves Them Right!"
Twig Said.

"ECHOOOO!"
Twig Shouted.

ECHOOOO

ECHOOOO

echoooo

"Teehee
ECHOOOO!!!"
Twig Shouted Again.

The Ground Began To Shake And Rumble.

Twig Shook.
"W-Whats Going On??"

~~~

Poppy Felt The Ground Shake As Well.

She Gasps.
"Wormquake....WORMQUAKE!"

Poppy Ran Out Her Window.

"WORMQUAKE TROLLS! EVACUATE TO THE NEAREST POD IMMEDIATELY! Love U All 😊"
Poppy Shouted.

The Trolls Freak Out.
"AHHHHHHH!!!!!!"

The Trolls Evacuate To The Nearest Pod.

In The Bunker, Branch And Frond Heard The Alert.

"Oh Gosh Wormquake!"
Branch Said.

Frond Raised His Eyebrow.
"What's A Wormquake??"

"It's When A Dozen Wormholes Appear Out Of No Where Causing A Quake!"
Branch Explained.

"Oh, Good Thing We're Under A Bunker"
Frond Said.

Branch Nods.
"Yep But, Wait....GASP BUBBLE! POPPY AND TWIG!"

~~~

Branch And Frond Ran To Poppy's Pod As They All Shook.

"POPPY! ARE YOU AND TWIG OKAY?"
Branch Asked.

"I THOUGHT TWIG WENT TO YOUR BUNKER!"
Poppy Replied.

"BUT TWIG NEVER CAME!"
Frond Said.

"OH NO TWIG!"
Poppy Hopped Down.

~~~

Twig Held Onto A Tree For Dear Life As The Ground Shook And A Fierce Wind Blew.

As Dozens Of Wormholes Appeared Off And On.

"H-HELPP! SOMEBODY! ANYBODY! PLEASE!"
Twig Whimpered.

Poppy Branch And Frond Made Their Way Through The Wormquake As They Enter Wormhole Fields.

"ANYONE SEE HIM?"
Frond Asked.

"OVER THERE!"
Poppy Points.

Twig Held Onto The Tree With On Hand.
"SOMEBODY! ANYBODY!"

"TWIG!"
Branch Called Out.

"BRANCH! HELP ME PLEASE! I-I'M SCARED!"
Twig Whimpers Terrified.

"DON'T WORRY! I'M COMING!"
Branch Shouted.

Branch Used His Hair And Swung Over To The Tree.

"BE CAREFUL BRANCH!"
Poppy Yelled.

Twig Held Onto The Tree With One Finger.
"😓😓😓!!!"

Twig Flew Off The Tree.

But Branch Quickly Grabbed Twig.

"GOTCHA!"
Branch Brought Twig To His Chest.

Twig Buried His Face In Branch's Chest Gripping Onto His Vest.
"I-I'M SO SORRY! 😣"

Branch Held Onto Twig Tight.
"DON'T WORRY! YOUR ALRIGHT"

Nearby, The Bellow Bug Got Blown Out His Home.

"EEEEEEK!"
The Bellow Bug Yelps.

The Bellow Got Blown Away And Slammed Right Into Branch's Face.

"ARGH!"
Branch Yelped.

And Let Go Of Twig.

"NOOOO! BRANCHHHH!"
Twig Yelled.

And Flew Right Into A Wormhole.

"TWIG!"
Poppy And Frond Called Out.

Branch Struggled To Get The Bellow Bug Off His Face.

The Wormquake Finally Ends.

Branch Falls Off The Tree.

And Removes The Bellow Bug From His Face.

"Phew 😅"
The Bellow Bug Was Relieved.

Branch Threw The Bellow Bug Away.

Branch Ran To Poppy And Frond.
"Everyone Okay?!"

Frond Helps Poppy Up.
"We're Good"

"Y-Yeah"
Poppy Coughs.

"Phew Good"
Branch Said.

Then Realization Kicked In The 3.

"TWIG!!!!!!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile...

The Wormhole Finally Opens Up And Shoots Twig Out.

Twig Lands On A Bunch Of Sand.

Twig Spits The Sand Out.
"Ew Ew Yuck!"

Twig Then Looked Around Of Where He Was.

Twig Stood Up.
"W-Where Am I?"
