"Ow. That was not a pleasant ride." Alexis says as she is walking in wolf form after having landed from the bubble.
"Hey cut that out!" A voice shouts from nearby as Alexis recognizes it as Hickory.
"Huh? Hickory?" Alexis asks as she listens to the sound.
"What's going on?" Another voice asks as Alexis then hears more commotion.
"Poppy? Oh no. Please don't be in danger." Alexis says in alarm as she bolts toward the sound and gets closer before seeing Poppy.
"Alexis!" Poppy shouts as Alexis sees her holding the Pop string.
"Poppy I'm here. What's going on?" Alexis asks worriedly.
"Hickory." Poppy says as she points.
"What about Hickory? What in the!?" Alexis asks as she then sees Hickory no longer looking like a Country Troll and a smaller troll is now standing beside him.
"Hey little lady." Hickory says nervously.
"Well I can see why my brother took a liking to you. Certainly are a beautiful lass." The smaller troll says.
"Shut it Dickory." Hickory says as he looks at the smaller troll.
"What is going on? Who is that? Why do you look so different?" Alexis asks as she gives a shocked expression.
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Dickory and I'm his brother. Show her who you really are Hickory!" Dickory says as he and Hickory yodel and harmonize.
"Wait. You're the Yodelers?" Poppy asks as Alexis lowers her head snarling.
"Yeah." Hickory says ashamedly.
"Ya darn skippy playa-play." Dickory says as Alexis growls at him.
"And you were gonna give our string to Barb?" Poppy asks.
"Ding, ding. Give this person a strudel for the correct answer." Dickory says.
"And you've been in back the whole time?" Poppy asks.
"Next subject please." Dickory says.
"Why would you do this?" Poppy asks.
"We trusted you. I trusted you." Alexis says angrily as she glares at Hickory.
"So sorry. Uh it was the only way to save our beautiful yodelin'." Hickory says guiltily as his voice changes to a German accent.
"Hickory." Poppy says sadly.
"But trust me you need to get out of here right away. Both of you" Hickory says.
"What are you doin' Hickory?" Dickory shouts as he then grabs the string and begins fighting with Poppy, Alexis and Hickory for it.
"Dickory. Shut your mouth-hole please!" Hickory shouts as Dickory yodels.
"Let go!" Poppy shouts.
"We must save yodelin'!" Dickory shouts.
"Got you!" A voice shouts revealing to be four Rock trolls as they grab Alexis and Poppy while Dickory pulls the string away from Poppy.
"I thought I heard a yodel." A voice says revealing to be a red haired rock troll.
"Queen Barb." Hickory says.
"The final notes of Pop. It will never invade anyone's brain again." Barb says as she takes the string from Dickory.
"I'm not gonna let you do this!" Poppy shouts as she and Alexis struggle to get loose.
"This is who I've been worried about? This little pipsqueak?" Barb asks as she goes over to Poppy.
"Don't touch her!" Alexis shouts as she snarls and snaps at Barb.
"Ooh. I'm so scared of a mutt." Barb says as Alexis growls.
"I'll never stop fighting until I make things right. And I'm not a pipsqueak!" Poppy says as Alexis looks at her.
"Uh yeah you are 'cause I'm like a whole centimeter taller than you." Barb says a she stands in front of Poppy.
"No! Leave me alone!" Poppy shouts.
"Leave you alone? Uh I'm sorry. You were the one who was all desperate to be best friends." Barb says as she pulls out an invitation Poppy sent her from her pocket.
"Get your hands off us." Poppy says as she looks at the trolls holding her and Alexis.
"Oh okay. All right. You're feisty. I respect that. Strong woman to strong woman am I right? But you know who else was feisty? Pop Village." Barb says as she smiles.
"Oh no." Alexis says fearfully before she glares at Hickory who gives a sad look.
"No!" Poppy shouts fearfully.
