Truck Stop Polly
The Fwagon was moving along a dark and spooky trail at night,there was fog all around and creatures stirred in the night.Everyone was a bit creeped out and nervous,Polly who was inside the Fwagon,stared out into the foggy forest.
" Sure is spooky out there,oh hey is that Mrs.Croaker? Oh false alarm,it's just some kind of,what the-AAA " Polly screamed as a creature slithered to the window frame of the Fwagon and roared at her.
She quickly closed the curtains and hopped away from the window.
"Man,look how far we are from home,it's a big scary world out there,kinda makes a little tadpole like me feel small...and scared.Well hey!Maybe some story time will help me take my mind off it," Polly said hopping towards the books to pick one out.
" Hmm,this one,HOP POP! " Polly said jumping on Hop pop who was sleeping,he jumped out of his sleep in panick.
" Heh?What's wrong,we drivin off a cliff,I knew I shouldn't let Anne drive! "
" No Hop pop,everything's fine,I was just thinking it was a perfect time for story time! " Polly explained holding up her book.
" Sorry Polly,but no,I was up all night drivin and I really need to sleep " Hop pop states.
" Pwease Hop pop," Polly begged giving Hop pop puppy eyes.
" I guess one little story couldn't hurt,hop up little Camper," Hop pop says as Polly hops beside him.
" Here we go,Fergus Frog finds a- " Hop pop's head fell backwards as his eyes closed and he began to snore,it was obvious he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Polly tried to wake him up,but when she couldn't she hopped down and left with her book.
" Man this road is treacherous,thank goodness I've got you guys," Anne says.
" Still trying to figure out where we're headed to next, " Y/n said observing the maps Hop pop left out,she also had a few books on the local wild life with her.
" Don't mention it,now let's see,looks like there is a sharp turn coming up on the- "
" Sprig guess what time it is!Story time! " Polly yells bursting out from the Fwagon.
" Not now Polly,this stretch of road is dangerous and- "
" But it's a pop up book! " Polly said opening the book,a large pop up hit Sprig in the face which caused him to loose his binoculars and map.
" Sprig which way? " Anne questioned,Sprig tried to guess which way without the map causing Anne to swerve from left to right.Y/n dropped her guide book as it tumbled into the woods,the bump also caused Polly to drop her book in front of Anne's face as the Fwagon swerved more.Anne quickly moved the book and stopped Bessie before she hit a spiked vine tree.
Everyone sighed in relief.
" What in tarnation!This is what I get for letting you kids drive! " Hop pop yelled.
" What no!This wasn't our fault! "
" Ya,ya!Whatever,you four,inventory duty! " Hop pop said pointing inside the Fwagon.Anne,Sprig and Y/n went inside the Fwagon annoyed as Polly stood there while Hop pop drove.
She sighed," so much for story time,well there's always bath time!Hugs and scrubs at the same time whoo! " Polly said hopping in the Fwagon excited.
" Now remember kids safety first," Hop pop said falling asleep and falling off his seat as the Fwagon hit a bump.
Anne,Sprig and Y/n were counting the supplies when Polly jumped from the stacked pile with her bucket full of water and bubbles.
" Boom I'm filthy! "
" What the heck dude! "" Hey I was counting those! "" I'm done,I littery JUST separated these and now they're uneven."
" Who wants to give me a bath!? " Polly yelled jumping in her bucket.
" No!No!Not inside! " Sprig tried to say but it was too late,the water splashed everywhere soaking everything before spilling out of the Fwagon.
" Ah cremeny!All our mushrooms bars are mush! "
" S'all the ruckus? " A tired Hop pop said falling into the fwagon.
" It's Polly,she made a huge mess! "
" Come on kids,I'm too tired for this. "
Polly got an idea to wake Hop pop up as she rubbed herself against the carpet charging up the static on her before jumping at Hop pop ready to tag him.
" Polly no it's wet in here! " Hop pop tried to say but she already tagged him resulting in him being electrified.
Shortly after everyone else except Polly was being electrocuted until it stopped.
" POLLY! "
" But...you guys love zap tap at home "
" Ya but we're not at home "
Polly sighed," Don't have to tell me twice," Polly says.
" Look,there's a truck stop ahead,we'll pull in and get this place cleaned up.Also imma need about 30 cups of coffee," Hop pop said tiredly.
They soon pulled up to the truck stop.
" Sprig,Anne and Y/n,you three start cleaning out the Fwagon.Polly,go get some paper towels," Hop pop ordered.
" Okay Hop pop," Polly said hopping off the Fwagon looking at the Diner in front of her,her eyes shifted to something else.
" Whoa a new friend!Twinsies! " Polly said but was confused when the 'tadpole' didn't reply.
" Aaaand I'm talking to a rock," Polly said finally realizing before hopping inside the Diner.
" Alright fam got your paper towels right here- "
" Man,what's with Polly today," Sprig voice was heard.
" Huh," Polly said confused upon hearing her name as she hid behind a crate.
" Being extra annoying "" I know,zap tag?More like zap pest," Anne tried to joke but everyone looked at her.
" We can't all be winners okay "
" She's been a little ball of destruction,more than usual "
" Maybe she's just not cut out for this "
" It's times like these when I wonder if I should of left her with Mrs.Croaker back in wartwood," Hop pop says.
Polly feels tears form in her eyes before she brushes them away looking angry and hops off.
" Okay you don't mean that,you're just a little frustrated "
" Ya I'm sure she's got her reasons "
" This is, ya know,different than home "
" You're right,you're right.I'm just so hoppin tired," Hop pop says showing his eyes.
" Here Hop pop,have some coffee," Anne said giving Hop pop coffee,he instantly lit up.
" Now let's get this show on the road! "
Polly had hopped back to the Diner entrance angry.
" Should of left me back at wartwood huh!?Hmmm,if they don't want me on the trip,maybe I won't go on the trip anymore! " Polly said getting a mischievous idea as she looked at the rock that looked exactly like her.
