Chapter 1




On a road to Bergen Town, a delivery truck of Valentine's Day merchandise was driving past Pop Village.

One of the drivers said while eating a box of chocolates, "You gotta love these Valentine's Day deliveries. Oh, do we have any of those hearts with the little messages on them?"

The other answered, "Uh, no. But, I've got some fancy pants perfume for you."

He then accidentally sprayed it in the other's eye.

"Ah! Get rid of it! Get rid of it!"

They threw it out the truck window.

The bottle of perfume rolled its way to Pop Village.

In Pop Village, Tiny noticed his dad was a little down in the dumps.

He asked, "Yo, Daddy, why the long face?"

Guy answered, "Oh, no reason, son. Just that it's been awhile since we've gotten some attention and I feel a little...invisible."

Tiny responded, "Nah. That ain't possible."

Guy said, "I mean, your attention is wonderful, but sometimes I feel a bit...unfulfilled."

Tiny wanted to help, "Well, all ya need is something to draw attention. Something that'll really bring in the big crowds."

Just then, the perfume bottle from earlier fell in front of them.

Guy took it and read it, "'Love Potion #5'?"

Tiny gasped and said, "That's it! Daddy, that's a sign! Today's Valentine's Day! Maybe you're meant to be...The Troll of Love."

Guy thought, "Hmm. 'The Troll of Love'...I love it!"

Somewhere else is Pop Village, Poppy was explaining the concept of Valentine's Day to the young Trolls.

One asked, "So, what's the point of this holiday?"

Poppy answered, "It's a day of love. And not just romance love; All kinds of love."

Another kid asked, "There are other kinds of love?"

Poppy said, "Well, there's family love, friendship love, even pet love."

Biggie walked by with Mr. Dinkles, who was covered in Valentine's Day clothing.

Then, another kid asked, "How do we celebrate it?"

Poppy answered, "Well, you could do something like buy someone a card, flowers, or even candy. But, some will go out of their way to show their love for another."

Branch started to walk by.

Poppy saw him, "Hey, Branch!"

Branch was a little surprised, "Oh, hey, Poppy."

Poppy wrapped things up with the kids, "So, remember; It takes even the smallest drop of love to show your feelings for someone special."

When the kids left, Poppy went to Branch, "So, any plans for Valentine's Day today?"

Branch did have something planned, but he wanted it to be a surprise for Poppy.

So, he just said, "Yeah...I got a bit of work to do around the bunker."

Poppy was a little disappointed, "Oh...ok."

Just then, a crowd started rushing past them.

"Whoa! Hey! What's going on?"

No one stopped, so Poppy and Branch decided to follow and see what was going on.
