Chapter 2: Poppy's lost innocence of Joy.
April 7th 4:48 pm in the day-
in the minecraft days she had survived 3 and in those 3 she had changed drastically, her dress dirty, ripped and torn, her socks covered in dirt and blood stains of many mobs slain, her happy joyful smile a cold expression devoid of joy, her eyes no long shining in innocence, and war shocked... Cold and serious. Those 3 nights had been terrible and they had changed her... After night 2 thing shad gone down hill with her tames, A skeleton wolf pair she named tilo and wilo, 2 Sculk raptors named Radio and Striker, a Moroccan Raptor she named Fisher, a wolf named Rodger in reference to her friend and the mutant Zombie Hard skull, she had amassed alot of stone and some rare jewels... Made her house bigger... But in one mining season with all her buds... Her tames and her trusted first tame Mutant Zombie Hard shell which was now heavily armored with the same caliber armor she had they went and mined... And they had found a deep dark biome... She was collecting sculk and well...* Poppy: come guys just a bit more and i can get myself some sculk armor to mix in for all of us! Haha! And myself a triceratops helmet! *as she mined she made sound and the walking of all her tamed pets and mutant friend and noises eventually caused a sculk shrieker nearby to activate and scream summoning a warden... One of the strongest cave mobs so far in the deep dark*
Poppy: what was that...? *She lifted her head up in concern, noticing the shriekers' sound rings and activity and the now present Warden charging at her!* Woah what is that! *she slashed at it as it growled and she shot it with her bow, her tamed pets growled and put themselves in front of her between the now angry warden and i roared before charging at them and her again* Guys be careful wait we don't know what it's gonna do! *her Skeleton wolf pair jumped first to bite it and so her wolf waited to do so but oh how things went down quickly. It grabbed one of them and punched him down slamming him to death in 2 blows and smacked the other one away into a the hard deepslate cave walls near a lava pool, it walked over ready to kill her other skeleton wolf as it bit down on it's foot, the warden unmoved and unphased by this action slammed it's fists down on her and killed the skeleton wolf, before turning its attention to her and the others*
Poppy: NOOOOO WILO! TILO! YOU WRETCHED MONSTER! *she yelled which caused it to charge more but her mutant armored Zombie came in and got into a arms battle of pushing clashing arm strength for strength, roaring at each other before the warden charged a sonic blast and blasted him back a bit as the warden looked at Poppy ready to charge it got stopped by the sudden attack of her wolf rodger and the 2 sculk raptors Radio and Striker and the Moroccan Raptor Fisher also jumping on it's back biting the warden*
Poppy: No Guys please RUn! Me and Hard skull can handle this! Pleas jus- *the warden sonic blasted them away as it grabbed one sculk raptor beating it to death and tearing it head off throwing it at her and the Striker Afraid and angry jumped back in but was grabbing and slammed into the ground till he stopped moving leaving scratches and bite marks on the wardens arm in struggle... It then grabbed the wolf and threw him before blasting him with another sonic blast, the wolf now injured considered retreating but considering how close it was to the warden it lunged and bit the warden in a last attempt to kill or hurt it but oh was it a bad move... The warden roared, grabbed him and threw him down before slamming it's fist hard enough to leave a crater 2 times killing her wolf... Leaving a mess... And after that it grabbed the Moroccan raptor Fisher on its back and threw it into the ground too, beating and slamming it to death infront of her leaving the rocks broken underneath it and crater with a mess of the gore and blood it had left of its body... Poppy was broken emotionally at that moment... It was a display of cruelty she hadn't seen before such violence...*
Poppy: I- i- i- wha... Fisher… My little babies I tamed... My pets… dilo... I- *she stared at the warden and she was stunned and frozen. She couldn't process but soon settled the rage and anger in the moment of the pain and sadness...* Why... They were such sweet buds... And calm and playful as a bubble and rodger my wolf... So inquisitive and smart for a wol...f-f… *she cried and in anger* YOU WRETCHED SCULK MONSTER YOU KILLED THE FRIENDS I HAD HERE AHHHHH! *catching the warden's attention again as it turned to look at her and charged and blasted its sonic blast she blocked it and Hard skull jumped in to fight the warden himself summoning a horde of armored and unarmored zombies to fight with him too... The warden plowed through them and blasted through the last patch before hard skull punched him hard doing some real damage as he jumped and punched again the warden punched back and charged a sonic roar before blasting him away moving Hard skull away he held his ground not stumbling determined to not fail in protecting or fighting for her he charged again and summoned another horde but this time realized it would switch targets as the warden plowed again through the armored and unarmored zombie horde and charged another sonic blast and balsted the rest of the horde away hard skull made a choice to keep Poppy alive even if it meant running from this situation and fight, He charegd fast and leaped forward and punched the warden square on the side of the face sending him flying into the deepslate cave walls as it was charging for Poppy and this stopped it for a while even though it tried blasting her with it's sonic blast it missed entirely hitting the rocks before getting punched, and Hard skull jumped toward her grabbed her and took her with and jumped out the cave leaving the area despite Poppy's persistent cries and yells to return to rescue them or kill the warden.* Poppy: HARD SKULL YOU IDIOT RETURN! RETURN! WE NEED TO SEE IF ONE LIVED! WE HAVE TO PLEASE! *Crying and angry* RETURN YOU BUFF ZOMBIE! LET ME KILL HIM LET ME KILL IT LET M- *Before just crying into its abdomen or side, not long after 4 hours or so it had gotten late and when they arrived at her house she was grieving the loss of her friends or pets... The zombie understood to some extent... He could've helped* Poppy... You could've helped! YOU COULD"VE SAVED THEM! AGH! WHY DIDN"T YOU WHY DIDN'T YOU HARD SKULL! *she had vented in anger before now making graves for her pets... Sitting somberly looking at them... Crying... Now grown colder the Mutant Zombie Hard shell also starred at the graves and her... He may be undead but he felt a sharp pain of loss too... Of comrades lost... She soon got ready to sleep and they spent the day not doing much he guarded and she slept and spent most of her time gardening the flowers she planted for each pet, 2 cyan flowers for Radio and Striker her Sculk raptors, 1 rose for her Wolf rodger, 2 Poppy flowers for Tilo and Wilo her skeleton wolf pair and 1 sea pickle for Fisher her Moroccan Raptor... She mourned the loss... Of her friends, her pets, her only family had, in this world... Before the warden had killed them... Later that night 2 mutant skeleton Survivors had gone out and spotted her house and began firing 1 fired explosives another a rain of tnt blowing up half her place* Poppy: what? What's going on? *surprised and confused while a bit groggy after just getting up* What! *her roof and walls blown through as they aimed and fired... She got ready for battle, not in the mood! She went out ready to fight but before doing so saw one of the roses slightly damaged and she felt enraged... But oh how rage can be dangerous to one's self* Poppy: I'll end ya both limb from Limb! *she charged full on blitz toward them and Hard Skull also alerted joined in and they both ran and clashed with the mutant skeletons* Die you Boney rats! *she slammed her sword on its skull heavily damaging it before using her hulk hammer to smack it on the leg and Hard shell did the same breaking one... But the other skeleton seeing her brother injured fired a barrage of TNT arrows at her knocking Hard shell down as the other brother smacked him this enraged poppy more and she slashed through skull crushing it's ribs with her hammer killing it... Meanwhile Hardshell got up summoning a horde of zombies to help him out and the swarmed the Mutant Skeleton he killed them all but was also tired, then lunging came Hard shell Punching in square in the head knocking him down, but all this commotion and caught the attention of the Sculk rex now roaring blasting hard shell away!* Poppy: Hard Shell! NOOOO! *he tried his best as she charged in to help only to get hit by a Yutyrannus as it charged to help the Sculk Rex or fight it?* Poppy: Agh! NO! I Refuse to lose one more friend too! *she charged fully determined to stop it as the rex and Mutant skeleton fought hard shell as he struggled even with his zombie hordes helping him out, and the rex rame in launching him she charged in slaying the Yutyrannus in 1 slash decapping it, before charging toward the Sculk Rex she charged but unfortunately was met with a sonic charged roar that sent her flying toward her walls burning her and knocking her out cold* Poppy: Hard shell! Agh... no... *After some hours of fighting Hardshell, he was thrown into the wall laying face first he was low... And Poppy Got up after such a crash he made and she saw it was morning already... So many zombies' corpses and broken armor of them... Then she turned and saw it* Poppy: hard SHell? Hard- *his body lying there unconscious unmoving for her and she felt a charge of hatred and anger burst a fury...* Poppy: NOOOOOOO! *she yelled almost hurting her throat and even surprising The Mutant Skeleton and Sculk Rex* YOU WILL ALL FALL! YOU WILL BE TORN TO BITS FOR ME TO USE I WILL AHHHHH! *She charged leaving a sonic boom in the process and zoomed past to fast for the Mutant Skeleton he charged to shoot at her but didn't get time to shoot before getting hit, grabbed by the arm by her and slammed down before she turned around and cut his head by the side into 2 cleanly, before grabbing it by the ribs leaping toward the sculk rex and tearing them open causing the body to explode into bone parts confusing and hitting the Sculk rex in the face with the blast and bone parts, as she charged in and slammed her Hulk hammer so hard it made a shockwave and blast breaking it HArdened Sculk skull and she then pulled her sword and slashed him 27 times around the body and cut his head ong before stabbing it on the head and taking her sword.* Poppy: filthy rats! You- *she panted before hearing Hard move and she charged toward him crying in teary eyes* No nonoonono... *he was barely moving as it turned to stare at her groaning...* Come on Hard Shell stay... Stay my Undead hulking friend... Please don't go... Please? *she just nudged him as he made some last sounds staring at her as the sun rose a beautiful morning* See Hard shell you can;t die on a beautiful and bright sunny day huh... she giggled... Painfully crying and smiling* Please Hard Shell don't go... Please not on a beautiful morning... Come on… stay with me My giant friend...! Please! *she laid her head on his chest hoping to hear something but he soon made one last groan and noise before ceasing movement...* NOOO! Hardshell! You Bulking mass or rotten muscle! STAY WITH ME PLEASE! PLEASE...! PLEASE...! *she cried and begged for hours before it got tardy... *but just as she was ready to bury him, he got up and roared but nothing was summoned he looked at her and the sunset... Before groaning one last time... She was happy for a second, a short second of joy...* Poppy: Hard Shell! Your alive come here buddy give me a hug please you scared me i- *he stopped her there before looking at the sunset then back at her before groaning making pain noises, as she grew dust... And glew bright red flashes by the second... He starred with Joy at her... Making a faint look of joy... Groaning... *Poppy grew crying now her heart breaking and aching* No no noooo! NOO! Please hard shell... don't tell me...! You're gonna... *he shushed her and pointed at where her heart would be and then back at himself and the grave of the pets... Before pulling out the creeper egg she had told him to hold and keep safe giving it to her... Before speaking for the first and last time...* Friend... Good... friends forever... We are friends... We stay here... *pointing at her heart* and I have to see other friend... With the friend you made first... *as it stared at the sunset before slowly fading* me now, see other friends... We lost in cave to warden... We love you... Poppy... You were friend and we'll always be friends... Forever... *as he looked at the sunset and faded away into the dust glowing red one last time before fading away... For good 1 last groan and sound before fully being gone only giving her his armored modified hammer to hold onto as a memoir...* Poppy: NOOO! NOOO! NOOOOOO! HARDSHELL! AHHHHHHHH! WHYYYYYYY! WHat... *looking at the destruction she did in her anger...* What did I do… *she got on her knees and cried, mourned and angrily cried and shouted before a portal the same portal that brought her here reopened here... Open for her to go back home ready...* I- what is this... Why appear now! NOW WHEN I'M SO HURT! I-.. *she just cried and stared at the dirt ground he once laid...* Why... lord or who was the light and figure I saw... Why.. *only hearing the words, your rage brought you this... This is what your fruit gave...* I'm sorry I'm sorry... Please i- please give him back any of my friends and pets... I- it hurts so much... Please... *she pleaded before feeling forgiven but sorrowful and full of pain she looked at the portal and got up with her stuff in her inventory and putting her armor off seeing the state of her clothes she didn't care... About the scars, bite marks, bruises or dirt, blood and sculk stains she had on herself or plant and rock dust too... She walked in with a new expression of serious cold and hurt... *going back to Dandy's world...*

The Toons had gotten concerned others bickered saying how quiet and smooth it had been without Poppy while other grew concerned, Dandy hadn't thought about it to much but did no something was off meanwhile Rodger and toodles well rodger only at the times since toodles was tired and cried for a bit after Shrimpo said some mean stuff toward her, Poppy had gone through as the portal as it closed behind her once she got back into dandy's world and closed the door behind her that she came out from... Looking cold and tired, completely different... And Rodger was the first to see her and see her and notice she had gone through some stuff and something bad or drastic wasn't hard to notice*
Rodger: Poppy! My dear bubble friend where have you been I- *seeing the torn up pink bow, dress and socks, the scars, wounds, gashes, bite marks and bruises all over her. The blood stains, dirt and sculk stains all over her tattered dirty clothes, and socks, the dust and rock dust too... And the dead cold look of pain and sorrow... The stain of her tears on her eyes... As she just walked past him not noticing them or simply not responding her smile was gone... She was completely serious, and broken from the recent days... As Rodher looked at her walk leaving traces of her own ichor too... As she walked* Poppy... My- what did this to you... Where were you my friend… * he said silently as she walked out into the open kitchen of the toons rooms where everyone was talking preparing for sleep or dinner...*
everyone in Gardview was chatting and talking, some concerned as Boxten walked and vee too talking*
Vee: you worry too much about Poppy Boxten. She is fine, she's likely with staff or doing her own thing and got lost haha. *laughing arrogantly*
Boxten: yea she does get lost sometimes. Thanks vee for re- *before Bumping into someone coming out of the staff rooms and as they looked at who they bumped into it was Poppy but looking as she was, with ripped and dirty socks, bow and dress. Stained in blood, sculk and dirt, covered in scars, wounds, gashes, bite marks and bruises all over with dust and rock dust on her showed she had gone through something bad... As she walked past them her look and face saying it all*
Vee: Hey. who did we bump into... Poppy? *looking confused and surprised by her, before noticing her current state* Poppy what happened? How'd you get this badly-
Boxten: Huh Careful...! And sorry! Who'd we bump in... to... Poppy? *she just walked past him in her current state as he gasped and covered his mouth seeing her state of everything* POPPY WHAT HAPPENED WHERE WERE YOU! I- *looking and noticing the large gash of a claw? On her left arm bleeding ichor and the amount of scars and injuries or signs of then she had seeing the bite marks too...* Oh my... Poppy! What happened, are you okay...? *she paused speaking a broken tone of serious and tiredness*
Poppy: No.. I just want to sleep.. Today Boxten.. To rest if you may and Boxten... I missed you... *as she hugged him before breaking down a bit* But I need some time to rest okay...? *her tone had never sounded this sad and hurt and her eyes teary, full of pain and sorrow as she held hard for a bit before walking to her room and laying on her bed and just saying she was sorry silently while the other toons gathered around her room*
