Hey guys sorry if this chapter is a little bad but I'm writing this really late at night and I'm going through a little writers block but hopefully it's okay.

Chapter 4

Poppys POV

I sat down on the chair near peppys and listened intently as he began telling me his shocking news.

Peppy:"The other day as I was walking in the woods I stumbled upon a notebook"

Peppy pulled out a purple notebook with a name written in clear letters on the front. A name witch sent shivers down my spine and for a moment I froze fixated on the name.

Poppy:"T-that's Creeks"

I whispered his name so quietly I'm surprised peppy even heard me.

Peppy:"Yes it is now I know that we saw him being eaten along with chef but the last entry in here says otherwise"

Peppy handed me the book and I flipped to the last note wrote in the book and I began shaking as I read the words.

*creeks last notebook entry*

All the trolls in the troll village think I'm dead ha what fools they are.

I am very much alive and I have a plan to bring them to their knees especially branch.

He's the reason poppy doesn't love me anymore and he will pay for taking away what belongs to ME.

My plan is simple but foolproof and it will make me king of all trolls. Branch will bow down at my feet and dear sweet poppy will beg to be mine again.

*end of creeks notebook entry*

I was speechless I just replayed it all in my mind over and over again. How could creek still be alive? How does he think he'll get to be king? And what is his plan? I was deeply confused and getting really worried peppy noticed how scared I looked and pulled me into a warm hug. But I only wanted branches arms around me he would know what to do and he'd make me feel better in 2 seconds.

Peppy:" I know it's difficult to think creek is alive but he is and he's also a threat to our village"

Poppy:" How exactly is creek planning to take over and become king? What's his plan?"

Peppy:" Well I'm not completely sure but I we know one thing for sure he's going to use you to become king by making you his wife"

Poppy:" But his plan will never work because I would never agree to that!"

Peppy:" I know you wouldn't poppy but I fear that he has a different way to get you to marry him by using branch "

Poppy:" B-branch why him I mean uh why would he need to be involved?"

The mention of his name made my heart flutter.

Peppy:" Well in the notebook entry creek seems very resentful towards branch because of the strong bond you two share"

Poppy:" What are you talking about dad we're just friends aha"

How did peppy know I liked branch I thought I was hiding it well heck I didn't even know till a short while ago.

Peppy:" I saw it when he sang to you and you both glowed brighter than anything I've ever seen before you are made for eatchother and I'm afraid creek has picked up on that and now he seeks revenge on you both"

Poppy:" So what do we do? Should I tell branch? What if he doesn't feel the same way I do?"

Peppy:" Poppy calm down just focus on getting branch here so we can tell him what's going on and don't worry about him liking you any troll would be lucky to have you"

I blushed at peppys words it was nice of him to say but he's my dad so he has to say stuff like that but I accepted it anyway.

Poppy:" Thanks dad I'll go get branch and bring him here"

And with that i set of to find branch I hope he doesn't freak out when I say how I feel what if he doesn't feel the same. No there is no time to be thinking about this now I need to focus on the real problem. Creek.

I hope the chapter was okay I feel like it was a little forced but I'm sure the story will flow better soon. Anyways see you all in the next chapter byeeee.
