*Branch woke up and looked to see poppy clinging onto him in her sleep*

Branch (Quietly): *Chuckles quietly and softly* cute

*and while being very careful he got up and left the bunker*

Branch: Now...let's get down to business

*branch pulls a bandana on over his mouth and pulls his hood up and sneaks into pop village*

*Meanwhile*

*king peppy was in his pod when one of the pop trolls entered*

Troll #1: King Peppy! He's returned!

King Peppy: Already? did you send out the guards?

Troll #1: Yes but he's too quick

King Peppy: Very well...Release the hounds!

*Another troll releases some Bloodcritters and they run to find the thief*

*After branch succeeds in taking a few things he leaves pop village and removes his hood and bandana but then he hears the bloodhounds chasing after him*

Branch: uh oh

*branch stuffs the stolen stuff inside of his hair and takes off at full speed*

*The critterhounds began to catch up to him and as he was climbing up a steep hill one of the critterhounds bit down on one of his legs*

Branch: OW! Get off!

*Suddenly a rock was thrown at the bloodcritter which caused it to let go and fall*

*Branch looked up and saw poppy*

Branch: Poppy?

*Branch grabbed her hand and she pulled him up*

Branch: poppy what are you doing?

Poppy: Saving your life!

*then Poppy caused a rockslide which caused the bloodcritters to leave terrified*

Poppy: Whoohoo! We did it! We did it!

*Then poppy accidentally kissed him which caused her to blush and pull away*

Poppy: uh sorry i- i- i didn't mean to...-

*then poppy felt branch grab her face gently and he pulled her into a loving kiss and she kissed back*

*Meanwhile*

*King Peppy looked at his trusty bloodcritters injured and whimpering*

King Peppy: I can't believe it, my three most trustworthy bloodcritters failed to capture a single thief, nevermind...we'll get him later, right now i'm worried about my daughter and i swear if that thief even lays a finger on my daughter-

Creek: Peppy? just a suggestion...i could go after him and find poppy

King Peppy: Well...what do we have to lose? Be careful

Creek: Oh i will

*Creek leaves the pod and smiles deviously*

Creek: and i will make sure to get rid of him...

*Creek puts a knife in his knife holster*

Creek: Forever...
