"No, no, no, no, no, no, no!" Branch shouted, chasing after Azalea and Twig, as they road on the back of their Cuddle Pup, Shimmer. "Woohoo!" Azalea, and Twig shouted, having a blast. Branch was starting to regret his decision to let that Cuddle Pup live with them.

Shimmer ran around the village, accidentally destroying pods, and other buildings.

"Get back here!" Branch yelled. Shimmer didn't stop.

"Hi-ya!" he said, whipping his hair forwards. It wrapped around Shimmer's tail, as Branch stopped running, digging his heals into the ground. Unfortunately Cuddle Pups are strong. Like... really strong.

Shimmer kept running, dragging Branch along with her.

"AHHHHH!" Branch screamed, as he bounced on the ground, trying to straighten himself back up, but Shimmer was too fast.

"Yeah!" Azalea yelled, throwing her hands up in the air. Shimmer took a sudden sharp turn, causing Branch to let go of her tail, and go flying.

"AHHHHH!" He crashed right into Officer Sparkleton, both of them falling to the ground.

"Ow," Branch moaned, sitting up, as he rubbed his head. He blinked, suddenly realizing who he had bumped into.

Officer Sparkleton stood, dusting off his uniform. Then he looked at Branch.

"Branch," he growled. Branch smiled, waving.
"Ugh... hi," he laughed, nervously.
"AHHHHH!" someone screamed, jumping out of Shimmer's path. Branch looked, seeing his children still riding Shimmer. Then he looked back at Officer Sparkleton, who was pulling out his handcuffs.

Branch's eyes widened. "Ugh... I... umm... BYE!"

He jumped to his feet, running away.

"Hey!" Officer Sparkleton yelled, shaking his fist in the air. "Get back here!"

Branch ran, taking a shortcut to cut in front of Shimmer. He stopped, holding up his hand. "Stop!" he yelled. Shimmer didn't stop. "I said, stop!" Branch repeated, but Shimmer just kept barreling straight towards him. Branch glared, getting angry.

"STOOOP!" he shouted out at the top of his lungs. Shimmer, skidded to a stop, nearly running right over Branch. All the trolls stopped running, turning to look at Branch.

"Hi, daddy!" Azalea said, joyfully, still laughing from all the fun she was having.
"Azalea. Twig. Off," he said, firmly, pointing at the ground. Azalea and Twig's smiles faded, as they slowly climbed of Shimmer.

"What's wrong, daddy?" Azalea asked, not understanding what they had done wrong.
"You two can't just go..." Suddenly Officer Sparkleton tackled Branch, both of them rolling away, until Officer Sparkleton was on top of Branch, handcuffing his hands behind his back.

"Hey!" Branch yelled. "What's going o..." Officer Sparkleton shoved Branch's head onto the ground. "Oof," Branch said, as he squished his face on the ground.

"You are under arrest."
"What!? Why me!?"
"Destruction of personal property," Officer Sparkleton explained, gesturing to all the destroyed buildings, and homes. Country Corral looked like a category 5 hairocane had blown through it.

"I didn't do it!" Branch protested. "Arrest the dog!"

Shimmer slunk back, ashamed of what she had done. She was just having fun.

"I'm a police officer. Not a dog catcher. You own the dog, you take the blame. Not to mention the fact that you also assaulted a police officer."
"What!?" Branch yelled. "I didn't..." Officer Sparkleton pushed his face into the ground again.

He pulled Branch up, off the ground, and began dragging him away. "Hey! You can't take me! I need to make sure my kids are safe!" Branch yelled, fighting against Officer Sparkleton. "Azalea! Get your brother home safely!" he yelled, before being dragged out of the kids' sight.
