Nother puffle story!
Pink puffle, Popper, and green puffle, Propeller, played on Ski Hill. Popper always managed to get the slightly younger puffle manipulated away from the edge. But Propeller saw the Tallest Mountain, and decided that it would be more fun to play there than it was on this tiny hill.
So he grabbed Popper and flew of without even asking what she thought of his great new idea. Well, she didn't like it and demanded he put her down, but he absolutely refused to drop her. They both got what they wanted when he spotted a tall mountain that was much closer and landed on it. As soon as they landed, she told him that they HAD to be back at Ski Hill when their penguin came to pick them up in a few hours.
He wasn't worried and replied that he could see Ski Hill from here. When she looked, she could see it too. She relented, but made sure that they would leave before their penguin had to get them so they would get there in time. So she made him stop playing and leave at about 10 minutes before their penguin was supposed to be at Ski Hill.
That exact moment is when they found out that his propeller hat no longer worked.She knew they were mere minutes away from becoming wild puffles, and though it would be fun, she needed igloo life! She knew that spinning her lasso to fly would only support one puffle at a time, and that Propeller did not know how to throw or twirl a lasso.
It was up to her now, and she knew it. What could she do? Maybe she could....... That was it! She made two lassos, then swung both and looped them around a tree branch, but kept the ends with them. She told him to keep his end, and once he saw that she was across, to swing over.
She hoped it would work as she swung herself and let go, landing perfectly in the snow of Ski Hill. She gave him the signal, and he came swinging. She hoped he would let go at the right time.... He almost didn't, but she swung her lasso and caught him. He climbed up the side of the wall, and they chased each other around for about 30 seconds until Icepooka walked up, clipped their leashes on, and went home.
Propeller decided, that day, that instead of pushing it and almost getting in trouble, he should listen to those older and wiser.
Popper found out that she should always be ready to help and act fast when it is needed.
