When poppy and the gang awoke to a delicious smell they all turned their heads to see branch investigating a berry bush.
"Is it safe to eat?" Poppy asked as she now stood next to him
"I'm not sure. They started giving off a sweet smell when it began to get warmer" Branch said a she stood "I'm betting that it's supposed to attract bugs and such" He said as he took no chances with the plant
"You think this plant could be dangerous?" Guy diamond asked
"I'm not sure...safe thing to do is not take any chances if it's alive," Branch said
The group took a few steps back before hearing screaming. Branch gave a confused look before he was tackled to the ground.
"Clumsy!" Poppy yelled in shock making the young smurf look up
"Hey guys" Clumsy said with a smile
"Now that we know it's you...can you get off," Branch said in annoyance
Clumsy looked down and quickly got off the grumpy troll. "Sorry Branch" Clumsy said before hearing his friends
"Clumsy!" Brainy, Smurfette and Hefty smurf yelled out
They all stopped in front of the group of trolls before smiling and giving them hugs. "What are you doing here?" Hefty asked as he took a step back
"Blue portal. It dragged us in" Branch explained briefly as he crossed his arms
"That explains it," Brainy said before he remembered why they were running after Clumsy "you could've just said you saw a spider," He said bluntly
"Well, I could've...if I wasn't in its mouth!" Clumsy yelled angrily
"He has a point," Hefty said as Smurfette rolled her eyes at them
Branch was about to say something before hearing a growl. Everyone remained quiet while the Smurf's has panicked looks in their faces.
"Oh no" Smurfette whispered before seeing a familiar orange cat
Said cat turned to them when Cooper laughed at the creature. Soon laughter broke out and Branch couldn't help but laugh too.
"That has to be the most outrageous thing I've ever seen" Cooper laughed out
The Smurf's stared in confusion before remembering that their version of a cat was really different.
"That's Azrael and he doesn't like to be laughed at," Clumsy said as the laughing stopped and became nervous chuckles as azeral began to walk towards them
"RUN" Branch yelled as he made a ball of light and threw it at azeral
Azreal clawed at his eyes as he temporarily blinded. Giving time for his prey to escape, the trolls and the Smurfs ran as quickly as they could to hide from Azrael. But their luck ran out when they went face to face with Gargamel.
"Oh come on!" Hefty said in annoyance
"Well, Well, Well. What do we have here, a couple of Smurf's and..." Gargamel began before frowning in confusion at the trolls "I'm sorry I don't know what you are and I don't care" He said as he quickly took out a jar
"RUN!" Smurfette yelled as everyone scattered
Gargamel's shouts for Azrael to capture them were heard but everyone managed to get away. The bad news was they were all separated and none knew how to find their way back to each other.
"Great" everyone said sarcastically as they looked at the dark cave walls and the maze ahead of them
After hours of walking in the dark maze did everyone begin to notice that they have been walking in circles. While separated clumsy managed to get himself lost and now Hefty and Dj were looking for him.
"Clumsy! Clumsy!" Dj called out as her voice echoed
"He could be anywhere!" Hefty said as looked at their surroundings
"So long as he doesn't panic, then he's fine," Dj said with a shrug of her shoulders
Meanwhile Clumsy was busy panicking and eating all his rations. He looked around warily as he heard strange sounds echoing around the maze. He slowly got up from the ground and continued to walk down the dark maze. Not knowing two figures were watching him, as clumsy passed a corner a sack was suddenly thrown over his head as he was tied up.
"Hey Let Me Go!" Clumsy yelled out as he struggled to get free
As that happened branch and poppy were currently walking around with their hair as a flashlight. Branch studied the walls of the maze and sighed angrily as it was hard to tell which direction they were heading for the moss would suddenly dry out or be soaking wet.
"I feel like we've been walking in circles," Poppy said as Branch agreed
"Let's try it your way," Branch said making poppy smile "but try not to sing. We don't know what's down here or in this world in particular" Branch said when they suddenly heard a loud roar
The two trolls froze before poppy turned to look at Branch. "Permission to run and scream for our lives," she asked
"Permission granted," Branch said before the two began to run the opposite direction the creature was coming from
Through twists and turns, Branch and poppy finally made it out before being ambushed by the same beings that kidnapped clumsy.
"This is not good," Branch said as he and poppy got ready to fight
"Why is it that whenever we go somewhere we always have to fight," Poppy asked
Before Branch could answer one of the beings threw of what looked like a berry that released a type of pollen. Coughing Branch and poppy tried to swat away the strange pollen.
"I feel sleepy" Poppy said before falling unconscious
"Oh no and ironically...it's poppy pollen" Branch said before falling unconscious as well
Two of the beings came toward them with their spears in hand. "Take them with the other one. When they wake up we can start asking questions" the voice said sternly
"But what about the others?" Asked another being
"When they come to look for their friends we'll be ready for them," The voice said before dragging Branch to the prison wagon while another dragged poppy
When Clumsy, Branch, and Poppy awoke they found themselves in a cage. Clumsy was already in a corner panicking as he muttered to himself while Branch admires the craftsmanship of their prison.
"They really know how to make a good cage" Branch commented while poppy blankly stared at him
"Really? That's what you have to say" Poppy said bluntly
"That and it's too easy to get out of," Branch said as he took a closer look at the vines that held the cage together "they can't even do a clove hitch knot properly," He said as he crossed his arms
Poppy blankly stared at him before lightly touching the cage. The disguised beings that were watching the cage suddenly had to jump and run out the way as multiple branches shot out everywhere. Clumsy stared at the scene before him in shock as Branch helped him get up on his feet.
"Let's go," Branch said as he used his hair to camouflage them
Poppy was already ahead of them and almost wanted to go and investigate why those beings captured them in the first place.
"Poppy lets go" Branch whispered
"Right," Poppy said as she used her hair to camouflage herself
As they escaped the beings from before were running around and one tripped on a rock. The mask the being was wearing had fallen off and there laying on the ground was a girl wearing yellow clothing and a yellow hat with a pink flower on it.
"Ouch" She mumbled as she got off the ground "that was embarrassing," she said as she dusted herself off
"Where did the prisoners go!" One of the beings yelled as they lifted their mask off their face, revealing another girl
"They couldn't have gotten far. We'll send a group to go and find them" Said another being as they lifted their mask off their face "besides we're Smurf's and we know this forest better than anyone" she said as everyone agreed
