It's been a month since the misery. Poppy was getting ready for the day. She put in her headband and crown and sat down to do her queen duties.
      She sighed. She loves being queen. She really does, but she feels lonely. She is longing for someone by her side. Poppy started to write a letter to the elementary school board when she herd a knock on the door.
       " coming "! She ran to the door to see Branch looking concerned and Blossom behind him silently crying.
      " what's wrong"? Poppy was confused. She didn't know what was going on. Branch tried to say, " Poppy, it's your father". " They found him passed out on the floor in a coma". Blossom cried.
        Poppy's heart sank. Her dad was the only family she had left. It took her a minute to process the thoughts in her mind.
      " can you take me to him".  Branch nodded. They ran all the way to Peppys pod. Poppy ran straight into his room. All she saw was a grey weak troll.
     Poppy began to feel weak. She grabbed a chair and sat down next to his bed, " Dad". She seeped weakly.
     Peppy mumbled. " Dad"! Poppy was at least happy he was responding. She talked to him for a bit until his heart rate machine said his heartbeat was gone.
       Branch came up to her and put an arm on her shoulder. Poppy that quickly pulled him into a embrace and they both fell on the couch. She snuggled up to him and just cried.
     The doctor came in and removed the body that once belonged to Peppy. Branch rubbed her back as she wept. Blossom brought her in soup.
      Poppy was staying with Branch and Blossom for a while. She needed love and care now. Poppy worried what the trolls will do without a leader. She didn't feel like a fit enough queen. The trolls would go crazy!!!
