(Y/n)'s POV

Later, the girls are helping me get ready for the party. They put me in a white hoodie crop top, with a black mini skirt and blue leg warmers (Like Satin). Janell and Aliki helps with my nails and make up.

"You look fantastic (Y/n)!" Clover says, reaching for my beanie. "Now we just need to fix your hair-"

I back away holding onto my hat.

"Come on," Janell said "You can't wear that forever."

"But Cooper wears his hat all the time..." I spoke. "Besides...I don't want to see-"

"Fine," Aliki speaks. "We'll skip the hair, but find something fashionable to wear. I mean you have tons of beanies to wear, so you must have something stylish."

"Make sure you show up for the party," Clover says. "I don't want anyone calling you a Bra- I mean party pooper."

They all left for the party as I looked through the dresser drawers for a "nicer" beanie. I find a purple beanie with glitter on it, and take off my black one, but not before looking in the mirror and seeing horns on my forehead. Not wanting to remember my past with them, I quickly place the other beanie on my head.

But before heading out, I drew a picture of Branch sitting by a pound surrounded by fireflies and write a letter to him. I then hand it to my sister's pet bug, Sparx.

I thought that since almost no one does much for him, it would be nice to just draw a picture and maybe write a poem for him.

"Send this to Branch's home please. And thank you." I say as he leaves.

As I take a deep breath I open the door and leave for the party. As I'm walking to the party, I think about how everyone expects me to be like Clover; all happy, loud and social. She wants me to be like everyone else, but I can't help but stay to myself most of the time...

As I continued walking I started to quietly sing.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
I've become so tired, so much more aware
By becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

And every second I waste is more than I can take...!

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
I've Become so tired, so much more aware
By becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you-

My singing was cut off as I bumped into someone. Branch. I noticed that I was gray, and quickly changed to my fake colors.

"Hey, watch where you're going-" He shouted angrily, before noticing it was me. "Oh, hey, (Y/n)."

"H-hey... S-sorry B-branch..." I said getting up. I notice that he dropped all his sticks, and quickly picked them. He stands up and I give him back his stick.

"...Thanks."

We then suddenly heard fire works and music going off.

"Oh no! I'm late!" I started running. "Clover's gonna be so mad!"

"Hey!"

I stopped and turned to Branch.

"Are they...forcing you to go to the party?"

"Ah- ....I... Well... Poppy and the others just wanted me to be there... I mean Clover and her friends didn't want me to be a- I mean I don't want to go, but everyone wondered why I-!" I cleared my throat, "I should get going...I don't want to be a bother to you."

Branch's POV

A bother? Since when was she a bother to me?

"Uh...okay." I said, as she quickly flies away. "Hey, wait! Hold on!"

But she already left. Her colors...I swear they were gray a moment ago. And that song she was singing...didn't seem happy at all.

No one's POV

The party started and everyone was having a great time. However Poppy noticed Clover and her friends waiting by a tree. She decides to go over to them.

"Hey girls! What's wrong?" She asked.

"Hey Poppy, have you seen (Y/n)?" Clover asked.

"You mean she didn't come?"

"She was supposed to." Jenelle said. "I hope she's just late and not bailing out."

(Y/n) then lands behind them.

"S-sorry, I'm late." She said looking down.

"That's alright!" Poppy said. "This party's just getting started!"

Suddenly large speakers are set up and the music gets louder and everybody started dancing like crazy. Poppy and the others joined everyone in the crowd leaving (Y/n) alone.

"H-hey, w-wait!" She tried to call out, but they were already gone.

Lights were flashing and glitter bombs were being shot everywhere. Smidge even got hit by a glitter bomb, but got up and went back to partying.

Branch watched as everyone was partying from on the top. He was about to leave until he saw (Y/n) inside the crowd of trolls, with an extremely nervous look. Guess a party with explosions, loud music, and crazy partiers is too much for (Y/n).

"She was forced to this party." Branch said as he watched her try to leave only to get grabbed by the arm by Creek. Deciding not the see the rest, Branch finally leaves.

"Hey, sweetums." Creek speaks. "Where are you going?"

"I...I was...looking for C-Clover." She lied.

"I'll help you find her. She's over there by DJ Suki. Come on."

"Uh...O-okay."

He drags her through the crowd of trolls as they see Clover spinning in the air spreading glitter everywhere from her bag.

"I'll be right back. I'm just gonna got shoot more glitter bombs." Creek said leaving (Y/n) alone in the crowd.

"W-wait-" Too late. He was already gone.

She soon heard Poppy yell, "MORE GLITTER!!!"

With that, 6 flowers opened up shooting glittery light rays, making an explosion so big that it nearly blew everyone away. It blew Cooper's hat off, and (Y/n) managed to catch her beanie and put it back on before it blew away.

They shot more fireworks before Poppy calmed everyone down. She flies up and manages to find her sister and her friends in the very front.

(Y/n)'s POV

As I land beside my sister, Poppy finally speaks.

"Okay, everyone." Poppy started. "I just want to take a moment, and get a little real."

"Poppy!" Biggie shouted. "She's my friend! I know her!"

The rest of the snack pack shushes him.

"I'd like to take a second to celebrate our king... My father. Who, 20 years ago this night...saved all of us from those dreaded..."

Suddenly footsteps are heard...getting closer.

"Bergens." King Peppy says.

We turn around as we see the chef bergen. I freeze.

"Gotcha." She said sinisterly.

Cooper then poops out cupcakes, when the chef stares back confused.

"Uh..." Poppy quickly grabs them. "Cupcake?"

Instead of her accepting, she opens her pouch.

"RUN!!!"

Everyone screams and panic trying to find a hiding spot. I hide under a mushroom as I see Guy Diamond get taken along with DJ Suki.

"Mr. Dinkles!" Biggie yells as Mr. Dinkles is stuck on his back. "Has anyone seen Mr. Dinkles?"

"Biggie!"

Unfortunately they both get taken along with Fuzzbert. I huddle up in the to the center absolutely terrified out of my mind.

"Blend in! Blend in! BLEND IN!!"

Everyone follows Poppy's commands, and blend in with the grass and flowers and some hid in the tree. However that doesn't stop the bergen.

I lay my head down and hug my knees saying, "This all a bad dream... This all a bad dream... This all a bad dream... Please just let all be a bad dream..."

"Run, Smidge!"

I look up to see Smidge get taken too, screaming, "OH MY GOD"

Satin and Chenille try to escape in different directions only to get stopped and taken too.

"Poppy, help!" A child screams.

Poppy leads the children and Cooper to the grass to blend in, but Cooper gets taken too.

"Cooper!"

"Everyone, minimize your auras!" Creek shouted as he gets grabbed.

"Creek!" Poppy stretched out her hair as he grabs it with his hands. She tried her best to pull back, but only fails as he's stuffed in the pouch along with the others.

I was too scared to do anything, until I heard screaming.

"ALIKI!!!"

"JANELL!!!"

I look to see Janell's foot was stuck in a hole as Aliki tried to help. I soon saw the bergen reaching for them. I quickly ran from my hiding spot, and shouted, "JANELL! ALIKI!! LOOKOUT!!!"

But they were already capture. The chef bergen soon turned to me and I tried fly away. As I looked back I saw he bergen reached for me...

"NO!"

...only to grab someone else.

"(Y/N)!!!"

"CLOVER!!!" I shouted as I used my hair to grab her and she did the same. We both tried to hold on to each other, but I saw the bergen's other hand reach for me.

Before being able to do anything else, Clover flung me into the grass. I land hard on my arm, but not hard enough to damage it. I quickly got up and ran out of the grass to see Clover get put in the pouch.

"NO!!!"

"(Y/N)!!!" Poppy grabs me."You need to hide!"

"But Clover-!"

"Bad Bergen!" We both saw Poppy's dad beating the Bergen's foot with his cane. "Bad, bad Bergen!"

"Dad!"

"King Peppy!"

The bergen tried to grab him, only to miss as we hide under a mushroom. Poppy and I used camouflage to hide the three of us. She looks under the bush as we look at each other hoping she'd go away. She then scoffs, and stands up, saying, "Thanks for throwing the biggest, the loudest..."

Cooper's voice cuts in, "The craziest party ever!" Only to hear him get shoved back in.

She walks away as the scream of the others fade out. Soon everyone comes out of their hiding spots, each face covered in fear, shock and worry.

"Is it coming back?" A troll named Moxie asked.

"What are we gonna do now?" Another troll named Harper asked.

"We have to find a new home." King Peppy says. "Everyone, hurry. We have to leave before the bergen come back."

Everyone starts to evacuate except me and Poppy. My sister and friends get taken away, and he expect me to leave them to find a new home?!

"But we have to rescue them." Poppy says.

"No, Poppy, we have to run. Now, let's go, everyone. Come on!" He walks away with the others.

"But what about 'No troll left behind'?"

He stops and turn to Poppy. "I'm sorry, Poppy. That was a longtime ago. And I'm not the king I once was."

Poppy thinks for a moment, before saying. "Then, I'll go. I'll go and save everyone. "

"No, Poppy. It's too dangerous."

"I have to at least try."

"No. You can't go to Bergen Town by yourself. It's impossible."

"...Then I'll go with her." I say as they both look at me surprised.

"(Y/n), you don't have to come with me." Poppy says.

"I don't have a choice, Poppy. That thing took my twin sister, and her friends. I can't stay and do nothing knowing that they're in danger. At least let me help."

"...Okay. But we might need someone else's to help us."
