Chapter 5
*poppy sat on the ground with a pout on her face*
Poppy: Ha! i can't believe branch doesn't trust me to be alone, i can fully take care of myself! what does he think i am? A baby?! NO! does he think he can control my life?! NO! and since i was bit he thinks he can keep in the dark from helping 'cause he thinks i might get even more hurt?! MAYBE!?
Avril: Wow...a boyfriend can't trust his girlfriend who can take care of herself to be alone...that's just sad
*poppy glares at avril*
Avril: *puts her hands up and backs away slightly* Just saying...
Poppy: You know what? NO! i'm not staying here any longer! i'm gonna go find supplies to build the raft whether he likes it or not!
Avril: Okay go ahead
*Poppy starts to go find supplies for the raft*
Avril: SIKE! *Grabs poppy and lifts her up by the back of her dress*
Poppy: Avril seriously?
Avril: Yes seriously! branch doesn't want you to leave my sight so i'm watching you to make sure you don't run off
Avril: In fact i may need to take serious measures for this
*a few minutes later*
*Poppy was tied up and hanging upside down from a tree branch*
Poppy: Avril, this is ridiculous, would you please untie me?
Avril: Nope i can't risk letting you get away so easily
*poppy groans*
*a few hours later*
*Branch, Neo, Annalynn and Demetria returned with some supplies*
Annalynn: Hey aunt Avril! we found some supplies to build the raft and- why is poppy tied up while she's upside down?
Avril: She was trying to get away from me
Branch: Poppy...
Branch: Okay avril get her out of the tree
*avril picks up a knife and cuts off the rope that was hanging her upside down*
Poppy: Wait avril aren't you gonna untie me?
Branch: Yeeah about that
Poppy: You're letting her keep me tied up aren't you?
Branch: Yep
Poppy: That's what i thought, but branch-
Branch: No poppy i'm not letting you out of those ropes until you promise me that you're not going to do anything that'll probably worsen the venom in your system
Poppy: Uh yeah there's no way i'm keeping that promise
Branch: Well then enjoy being tied up for the rest of the journey
*branch grabs poppy's ropes and drags her to the raft*
*A few hours later*
*the raft had already set sail while poppy was trying to get branch to untie her*
Poppy: Come on branch untie me PLEASE!
Branch: Nope
Poppy: But branch the ropes are SO uncomfortable!... I- I'll tell you what; you don't want me to help with difficult tasks i won't, now can you please untie me?
Branch: And?
Poppy:...And i won't wander off or do anything that'll worsen the venom
Branch: And?
Poppy: I love you *smiles cheekily*
Branch: Alright *unties poppy* but if i catch you doing any difficult tasks, i'm tying you back up
Poppy: Okay branchie
*suddenly thunder was heard*
Neo: Uh oh, that doesn't sound good
Annalynn: Don't worry Neo it's only a little drizzle, it'll pass
*suddenly the river started to get rough and started thrashing everyone around the boat*
Annalynn: Ah!
Neo: This isn't good!
*suddenly neo and annalynn slipped off the raft and landed in the river*
Demetria: Annalynn!
Avril: Neo!
Poppy: *Gasps* Guys!
*poppy tries to run to them but branch held her back*
Branch: Poppy no!
Neo: Don't worry! we'll be fine!
Annalynn: We'll find you guys!
*then they were pulled by the current towards the unknown*
Poppy: No!
*a few hours later*
*Neo gasped for air and coughed as he poked his head out of the water*
Neo: We- we're alive! oh thank goodness...wait Annie? ANNIE!
*then neo notices annalynn swimming in the water joyfully*
Annalynn: WOOHOO! neo! you've gotta try this!
Neo: *sighs* Cousins...
Annalynn: Hey neo!
Neo: hm?
Annalynn: I know we got separated from the gang, but don't worry! i have a plan! If we take a shortcut we can meet up with poppy and the others at the border of the fall trolls!
Neo: Wh- Annie we have no idea where poppy and the others have ended up! they could be trapped somewhere!
Annalynn: Then...we try to backtrack where we were and then try to find them?
Neo: Annie i'm serious! allow me to put it this way, other people have many different views on the word 'plan'
Neo: To me and other rational people; A plan revolves around the 5 P's; Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance!
Neo: But to other people, Their PLANS are just bad impulses!
Neo:...what are you doing?
*Annalynn finished making a makeshift raft*
Annalynn: Sometimes you gotta improvise
Neo:...Yeah that'll never float
*Annalynn pushes the raft onto the water and miraculously, it doesn't sink*
Annalynn: You were saying?
Neo:...I stand corrected
*neo and annalynn climb onto the raft and use their paws to row it out on the water*
