I advise y'all not to watch the video below and to let you all know that I hated this short film because I watched it last year and I haven't been the same since so please please don't watch it!
Poppy and Branch were in the former's pod because it was movie night but they had to watch a little short film first but Poppy didn't want to watch it. "Why do we have to watch this? I don't like scary stuff." She whined.
Branch looked at her, she probably forgot that they were dared to watch this film by Guy Diamond because he wouldn't shut up about it. "Because we were dared by Guy Diamond to watch this and if we didn't listen to him he wouldn't have shut up." He answered bluntly.
Poppy groaned and put her hands on her face, she really didn't feel like watching a scary short film when it was night time. She felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Branch smiling at her sincerely.
"It's okay Poppy, I understand you completely I don't want to watch a stupid scary movie either but we promised Guy Diamond but don't worry because I'll be by your side all night." He said lovingly and gave her a hug(pun intended) Poppy smiled and returned the hug(again pun intended) but unknown to her she would be scared to give hugs ever again after this film.
So after they broke their hug they loaded Hulu and searched for the short film called The Hug, which sounded pretty stupid for a scary short film they put it on and got comfortable.
"Pandory's pan pizza palace!"(please kill me for I hate that annoying song so much that I want to puke.) some woman sang as the film began with some human kids standing on top of 3 skee ball machines playing skee ball, the human employee glared at them and told them to get off of the machines. Branch was getting bored all ready while Poppy was shaking in her seat even though the scary part hasn't began yet.
5 minutes and 11 seconds later(because I don't want to type the whole plot.)
Branch was yawning because he thought it was really stupid and really boring. "Okay Poppy now that that's over why don't we watch a comedy movie of your choice?" He said and looked next to him but he didn't see her until he saw the blanket shaking, he lifted the blanket and saw her shaking like a leaf.
"Please Mr Pandory, please let the kid go!" She said as she sobbed with her hands on her eyes. Branch looked Sorry for her, he was not used to seeing her like this and he was sure as hell going to have a serious talk with Guy Diamond tomorrow.
So after 20 minutes of telling her it's okay and that it wasn't real she felt a little better and they put on a comedy movie of her choice like he promised, Branch was laughing through the whole movie but Poppy was still scared. After the comedy movie they decided to call it a night and go to bed.
Poppy was tossing and turning in her bed with Branch next to her sound asleep but she was having trouble sleeping thanks to the stupid short film.
*Dream world* Poppy was in the pizzeria from The Hug all by herself. What was going on?! Why was she here?! It wasn't long when she heard trumpets playing and saw the curtains open to reveal Pandory in his true scary form. Poppy was sweating and crying, he inched closer towards her and took out a knife and fork and licked his lips. "Mmmm I've never had Troll before but I bet you'll be delicious!" He said with an evil smirk on his face.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" Poppy screamed and ran towards the door to escape but the doors wouldn't budge, she heard evil laughing and turned around and saw Pandory right in front of her. She was crying until Pandory lunged at her. *real world.*
Poppy shot up from her bed and screamed which woke up Branch. "What happened?! What's wrong?!" He said panicking, he looked at Poppy who had tears in her eyes and she began crying.
