Epilogue – Part 2

Within minutes, the entire concert is packed with a lot of Trolls, forming a mosh pit. They are all over the place with some trying to get to the front of the stage, some trying to get to the snack bar while others struggled to find a good place to sit at. The curtains are closed, covering the stage.

Trollzart is looking over his orchestral, making sure that they are all ready. He is wiping his conductor stick to make sure that it is spotless. He checked himself if his tailcoat is neat and doesn't have any wrinkles, adjusting his sleeves to make sure that they aren't pulled up. Meanwhile, Chaz is tapping on his clarinet, ready to perform on top of the band.

"Just don't over do this," warned Trollzart.

Chaz rolled his eyes as he got into position, hovering slightly behind the Classical Trolls.

"Are you guys ready?" asked Poppy, bouncing up and down as if she just took sugar.

"We are, your majesty," said Trollzart. "Let the show begin!"

"Alright! Let's get this show on the road!"

"Good luck!" said Branch.

"Hey, Trollzart!" called Charleston. "Good luck on your performance! Make this classic!"

Trollzart smiled. "Thank you, Charleston."

A loud noise came over the concert, blasting through the speakers.

"HEY THERE, EVERYONE!" said a voice. "WHO'S READY TO PARTY?"

The crowd cheered, all their voices roaring.

"Thanks for coming over for tonight's special concert. Here, we are celebrating our reunited kingdom. We got all the main genres of music up to perform the night; Pop, Funk, Country, Techno, Rock, Classical, you name it! Let's start with Trollzart and the Classical Trolls first as everyone gets settled on the dance floor!"

A loud applause erupted from the crowd as all the lights turned off.

The curtains of the stage unfolded, revealing Trollzart and the Classical Trolls.

After a moment of silence, white lights turned on behind them as they began to play.

They first played 'In The Hall of the Mountain King'. They began slowly and quietly in the lowest registers, played by the cellos, double basses and bassoons. Chaz managed to play along, using his clarinet as the bass. The song nearly represented a dream-like fantasy as if entering the mountain king's hall. The music started to have a few different ascending notes, building up the song.

Trollzart swung his conductor stick around as he ordered the groups of instruments to play at certain times. He took a good sneak behind him to see the audience staring at his band in wonder and amazement. They seemed to be enjoying this.

Two groups of instruments moved in and out of different octaves until they collided with each at the same pitch. The tempo gradually sped up – making the music becoming increasingly loud, frenetic and nearly dramatic – before coming to a prestissimo finale.

As soon as the song ended, the audience cheered and clapped loudly.

Trollzart smiled. The applause isn't too loud, but that is just the beginning.

He cleared his throat, gesturing two Trolls to come up onto stage.

Two Pop Trolls – all dressed in suits of lights with traditional montera hats – made their way onto the rectangular platform and stood in the middle.

Trollzart and the Classical Trolls started playing 'Carmen (Overture)'. Using clarinets, bassoons, cornets and cellos over tremolo strings, they began with a lively and upbeat melody, giving off the impression of a contest starting. As light blue lights shone over them, the two Pop Trolls stared dancing, looking as if they were fighters of a bull-fight. They looked like they were in a dual as one of them would act as the 'bull' and the other as the 'fighter'.

The crowd started to cheer and clap along the beat of the song, enjoying the epic music.

The song slowly switched to the Toreador Song and the two dancers started dancing like ballad dancers…even though they are both male. At some points, one would hold onto another one and swung them around like he was his dance partner.

Trollzart then guided the Classical Trolls to switch back to the cheerful and upbeat tone of the song. As they came to an end, the two Pop Trolls made a pose as roses from above fell on them like confetti.

The crowd cheered again, this time louder.

Trollzart grinned, noticing how the other Trolls are starting to like his music. His music is even proven to be worth dancing to!

The two male dancers bowed down before making their way of the stage.

…then two female Pop Trolls came onto stage wearing bodices, large skirts with blue, pink, light blue and red layers, undergarment and black heeled boots. For some reason, they are wearing animal heads; the left one is wearing an orange rooster head with pink curlers on its head and the right one is wearing a pink pig head with blonde hair, a blue colonial hat and sunglasses.

The crowd laughed a little at the sight of the two new dancers.

Trollzart ruffled his tailcoat before flicking his conductor stick upwards.

The lights changed to golden yellow.

The band started playing 'Infernal Galop (Can-Can)', playing a fast melody that leaps backwards and forwards in an acrobatic manner while sounding smooth spontaneous'.

The two dancers started dancing, mostly moving their arms in the style of how chuckles would do while holding their skirts up while kicking their legs. It is an impressive sight to see how they are able to dance to the rhythm of the song when it is going gradually fast. They are doing a French cancan of sorts.

The crowd is amused by the sight of this, but they clapped along, cheering at the spectacular sight of the dancers and the fast music. Some even tried dancing along with one or two tripping over.

The song came to an end as all the instruments played together for a dramatic finale. The dancers shook their dresses before splitting their legs. At the last note, they raised their right arms.

The crowd went wild, applauding loudly. Trollzart couldn't help but cheer at his band.

"Beautiful!" he said. "Thank you for this performance, my friends!"

The Classical Trolls bowed their heads, grinning from cheek to cheek.

The two dancers bowed down – one of them nearly accidentally planting her face on the floor – before they walked off.

Trollzart is so lost in the excitement that he nearly realized about…something still playing.

He opened his eyes…and nearly had a heart attack.

Chaz is STILL playing his clarinet, circling around one Classical Troll holding Pennywhistle. The golden whistle is smiling in induced joy as she heard the smooth music around her.

"So SmOoTh!" she slurred.

Trollzart sighed and flew towards Chaz. "Please stop there, Chaz. That's enough."

Chaz chuckled. "It's one way to bring in the ladies."

"I'm sorry, but you're going a little out of line already."

Before Chaz could protest, Hickory came over and grabbed him by the foot.

"C'mon, partner," said Hickory, dragging the floating Chaz away. "I don't think their next song requires Smooth Jazz."

Chaz rolled his eyes and grumbled, feeling as if he was scolded by a parent.

Charleston slowly woke out, groaning as she shook her head. "What just…happened?"

"You just got a little tired," said Trollzart, not bothering to tell the truth. "Do you need a rest?"

"I think so…just going to doze off backstage."

She hopped off the stage, a little wobbly.

As soon as Pennywhistle disappeared behind the curtains. Trollzart turned to the audience.

"Thank you all for enjoying our performance!" he said. "Coming after me is Pop, so be sure to look out for the next act!"

All the Trolls cheered loudly as Trollzart and the Classical Trolls made their way off the stage and headed into the backstage.

"You did great!" said Trollex, circling around Trollzart. "I like the last song you did!"

"That was actually magnificent!" said Delta. "Didn't thought that Classical can make things fancy here!"

"It's totally the appetizer of the night, man!" said Prince D.

"Why thank you," said Trollzart politely. "I also wish you luck for your own performances."

Barb made her way to the Classical Conductor. "Hey, man. Well done on your performance. Even though you still lack lyrics…you managed to hit the beat there. I see that you put a lot of emphasis in your music."

Trollzart smiled, his cheeks blushing. He is surprised that Barb admitted that she did enjoy his performance. He isn't sure if Barb was pretending or being genuine, but she looks satisfied.

"I'll treasure your compliment," said Trollzart as he pat Barb on the head.

Barb chuckled. "Ah shucks! I should be the one to give you a pat on the back. I am also surprised that you managed to make heavy beats with those large drums. It's a little louder than the drum sets we Rock Trolls usually use. Right, Riff?"

She is expecting Riff to say 'yes' from her right…but no response.

"Riff?" said Barb.

"I don't think your friend is here at the moment," said Trollzart.

Barb looked around…and her face turned white as paper.

Riff isn't with her.

She didn't remember him being around her when they got to the Mushroom Pit.

"Oh god…" said Barb. "I forgot about Riff!"

Meanwhile, Poppy and Branch are getting ready for their segment. At the moment, Poppy is sitting on a chair while another troll brushed some powder on her face.

"And can you look down for me?"

Poppy lowered her face, feeling the brush tickled her cheeks and underneath her eyes.

"Amazing."

Poppy stood up from her seat and looked at the mirror beside her…her face still looks the same, even with make-up on. She looked at her stage outfit; a yellow and magenta dress with violet bracelets and lavender legwarmers. She managed tie her hair in a ponytail with a yellow leaf crown sitting on her forehead.

"This is perfect!" she squealed.

Suki appeared – wearing the same outfit except that the colors were mostly turquoise and purple – giving Poppy a pair of golden sunglasses.

"Ready when you are," said Suki.

Poppy smiled and turned to Branch who is trying to put on his own outfit.

"Make sure to make a big smile on stage," said Poppy.

Branch rolled his eyes. "We got to take our performance seriously if we want to nail it."

"I'm actually blown away by the Classical Trolls' performance!" yelled a voice from the speakers. "What an outstanding start to this party! I must have gotten them wrong because I'm definitely lining up for their next concert! Now, put your hands in the air for Queen Poppy and the Pop Trolls!"

"You're up now," said Branch. "Let's go."

"Alright!" said Poppy. "Let's do this!"

She and many other female Pop Trolls ran out of the dressing room and made their way onto stage. They passed some of the leaders who are watching them.

"You go, girl!" said Charleston, lifting her cane in the air.

"Good luck, Pop Queen!" said Prince D. "Make this show rock!"

"You got this, Poppy," encouraged Queen Essence.

"Do your best!" said King Quincy.

"Thanks, guys," said Poppy.

She got to the stage where the female Pop Trolls got into position for their performance. She even noticed Delta peeking through the gaps of the curtains, looking at the cheering crowd.

"There's a lot of people out there," said Delta. "Are you sure you can take this?"

"I sure can!" said Poppy with a confident smile. "I can't wait to bring the joy to everyone out there!"

Delta smiled and walked away. "Don't overdo it though…you know what I mean."

Poppy chuckled at that joke and got in the middle of the Pop Trolls.

"Let's do this!" shouted Poppy. "We're ready!"

The curtains opened, revealing Poppy and the Pop Trolls on stage. All the Trolls applauded as the lights faded out. There is a dim pink light shining on the group as the song began.

They started moving their heads from left to right as they started to whistle to a melody. They then all snapped their fingers in the air.

"HUH!"

The lights turned bright, in shades of pink and magenta.

They all started dancing and singing 'Sit Still, Look Pretty' with Poppy being the lead singer.

Their song is about female empowerment; about a girl fighting for her own dreams and what she wants, not letting anyone get in the way of that. They sang that they want to do better things in life instead of sitting still and watching life pass them by.

Instead of having Pop Music playing in the background, they are doing acapella; the backing dancers vocalizing the music and beat. They did this to represent that they can make their own music without any instruments or the strings. They put a lot of effort in mimicking the music, having a strong tone to them.

Their music is really bouncy, sunny and uplifting with a rebellious side. Poppy and her female dancers are doing simple dance moves, occasionally doing girly movements to show their sweet side. Poppy is the one who did the most spins in the group.

Many Trolls who are watching this are impressed by Poppy's song choice; choosing to represent strong women instead of singing about having a good time while keeping up with her positive nature. They started singing and clapping along at the chorus.

Branch watched from the side, feeling a little uncomfortable when he heard Poppy singing that she 'doesn't need a king' or 'don't need a boy'. He hoped that she is just acting since he still yearned for her.

"They look like Matthew's girlfriends," said Charleston, a little put off by the Pop Trolls' appearances. "They're SO shiny."

"I never thought that they can use their voice to harmonise the sounds of instruments," said Trollzart.

"Acapella is a pretty popular genre in our tribe," said Branch.

"That song doesn't really fit their look," said Delta. "It's not bad, but the lyrics sound a bit more mature than them."

Shortly, Poppy and her dancers strike the final pose as they finished singing the last line of their song.

"Sit still, look pretty!"

The crowd erupted in loud applause, liking the song Poppy performed for them.

"Thank you!" said Poppy. "Thank you so much! Right now, give it up for my best friend, Branch!"

The crowd cheered again.

Branch rubbed his hands nervously. "Oh boy…it's my turn now."

"You think you can handle this?" asked Bastille.

"I think I can. It's just a short song for me to sing. I can handle the pitches."

The Indie Troll observed Branch's stage outfit; the Pop Troll is wearing a white collared shirt with rainbow patterns on it, black pants, orange wristbands and purple sunglasses. He even has a black stripe in his dark indigo hair.

"Your outfit doesn't represent you in the best shape," commented Bastille.

"It's all I have," said Branch bluntly.

Taking in a deep breath, he walked onto stage. As Poppy and the female dancers went off the stage, three male Pop Trolls came onto stage, making their way to three instruments that are set up before Poppy's performance.

One went to the drums, another on the bassist and the third on the keyboards. Branch walked up in the middle of the three and stood in front of a microphone stand.

The crowd cheered politely.

"Alright, everyone!" said Branch through the microphone. "You're all ready for this? Here we go."

He started singing 'Sucker', leading the trolls playing the instruments to follow his cue and the lights turned turquoise and blue. They began their song that portrayed someone who is infatuated with someone and would go to great lengths. Branch narrated the song, saying that he is a man who is helpless against his love who looks so perfect in his eyes.

There is a light tropical rock instrumentation throughout the song, leaving the central focus on Branch's vocals for the song. The song is upbeat and lively, but it carried a deep meaning, celebrating the power of the relationship over Branch because he is a 'sucker' for falling in love with his crush.

The blue Pop Troll managed to hit the high pitch at certain parts of the songs, using his bright tenor vocals. He managed to tap his feet while singing. The crowd started clapping along, liking the quirky song.

When the drumming solo came, Branch stopped singing and did a break dance. He did really well, using a lot of arm and hip movement after his experience of dancing with the Reggaeton Trolls and the K-Pop Gang. He even whistled, getting the crowd to get up on their feet.

Even Poppy is impressed. "Wow! He's really good in this! I thought that he needs a partner to dance along."

Bastille smirked and nudged Poppy. "You know, he's kind of a 'sucker' for you."

This earned a deep blush from Poppy as she looked away. "Yeah…sorry…I'm embarrassed."

To end the song, Branch spun around and sang the last line.

"I'm a sucker for you," he sang, pointing at the crowd.

The crowd cheered, clearly enjoyed Branch's performance. Branch even noticed that the Rock Trolls are the ones who were roaring louder. It must be because he added a little Rock to his performance.

"Great performance, guys!" said Poppy as she came onto stage. "Nice whistling there, Branch!"

Branch smirked. "I would have said the same to you."

"I said it first."

"Shall we start the next song?"

"Let's do this! This one is bringing back the disco era, everyone. Get ready to dance!"

As they spoke, a few more Pop Trolls came onto stage, bringing along additional instruments. They set them up, plugging them to the speakers before started playing them.

They started a funky disco tune that lead back to the 70s. Poppy sang first, starting 'The Other Side'. Branch sang along at the chorus and the second verse. The song is a deeply, infectious, groovy song peppered with the kings of hand claps and funk keyboard riffs.

Obviously, they wrote the song together. Their song is about telling someone something they already know, believe or accept, and encourage them to get back on their feet. They claimed that some people often view someone else's life as better than their own, but neither side is better off overall with their equal perks and flaws. Basically, they are bringing about the message that there is no right or wrong and they have to accept other things, just like how they have to accept the other tribes.

The crowd clapped along. Even though the song sounded old, it still gives off a groovy vibe to it, making almost everyone dancing.

Backstage, the Funk Royals watched on.

"I'm really digging their Disco vibe," said Prince D, grinning. "I guess Disco isn't outdated."

"I thought that it stayed around the whole time," said Cooper.

"Queen Poppy is amazing," said Queen Essence. "I'm happy that she is having a good time with the other Trolls here."

"The message in in her song," said King Quincy.

The song finally finished. The crowd cheered. Poppy and Branch both bowed in a 'royal' way.

"Thank you, guys!" shouted Poppy. "You like it, everyone?"

The crowd responded back. "YEAH!"

"Alright!" said Branch. "We got one more song for you."

"When we get down to the bridge," said Poppy. "We want you to 'break it down'! Let's do this!"

Branch grabbed his microphone and started to vocalize. His vocals are then recorded to the decks and used as one of the backing instruments. Poppy started singing 'They Don't Know' with Branch backing her up for the vocals. The music is all about staying upbeat and happy with those who understand you in the face of a world full of haters. Their song is upbeat, almost disco-pop with a strong percussion to illustrate one's happiness with another.

During the choruses, Poppy and Branch danced together, encouraging the crowd to dance along. They are making quick and easy moves to join the fun of the song. However – at some parts – Poppy and Branch would sometimes hold dance and danced together like ballad dancers, spinning one around.

When the beat dropped and the bridge began, the whole place turned dark and neon rainbow lights shone all over the place. Branch's and Poppy's bodies turned fully blue and pink respectively. They took turns, trying to show who is the best dancer. Poppy did a lot of free-form moves as well doing a few spins and flips. Branch did a lot of swing movements as well as doing some rough and quick movements.

In the end, they held hands together as they sang the last chorus together. They finished the song by holding onto each other's hand and raised them up in the sky.

"They don't know, they don't know, they don't know, they don't know about us…"

After last note was sung, the entire crowd cheered, applauding loudly.

Poppy and Branch grinned…and realized that they are still holding hands.

"Ah!" said Branch, quickly releasing his grip. "Sorry…"

Poppy just smiled sweetly. "It's fine. You can if you want."

Branch blushed.

Poppy turned to the crowd. "Thank you! You guys are awesome! Up next is Funk!"

With that, she, Branch and the band members went off the stage. The curtains drawn again as the Funk Trolls came onto stage to get prepared.

"Well done, guys!" said Suki, giving them the thumbs-up. "You did great!"

"Nice performance!" added Guy Diamond.

"You really rock the show!" said Bastille with a smile.

Trollex flew around the two Pop Trolls and patted them on the head. "You guys did well. I like how in some songs you used your own voices to make music. You would be great at being DJs."

Poppy giggled. "Thank you!"

Branch smirked and rolled his eyes. "We did our best."

"You were excellent!" said Trollzart. "Beautiful performance!"

Poppy smiled in gratitude, feeling proud of doing a fun, positive and impressive act to represent her tribe. However, the best is yet to come. She can't wait to come back onto stage to help Barb out!

"Now that I remember," she said to Trollzart. "Do you know where Barb is?"

Trollzart shrugged. "I think she went off to find Riff."

Barb is panicking.

She nearly tear off all the hair strings from her head.

She is searching the entire backstage to find her second-hand man.

If she doesn't find Riff, then they don't have any drummer!

As she ran from room to room, her heart kept beating and her body is ignited with adrenaline. Even though she felt tired, she doesn't want to give up since she and the Rock Trolls need to be ready for their act.

She appeared in one of the changing rooms, kicking the door opened.

"GUYS!" she shouted. "Has anyone seen-?"

Barb stopped when she saw what is happening in the room.

Tresillo and Wani are fighting over a colorful-looking cape.

Naturally, they are having a tug-of-war in an attempt to pull the cape from each other. They don't let go off the cape as they started to spin around in a useless attempt to win the scroll. One would try to pull a heavy tug, but the other held on.

The K-Pop Gang and the Reggaeton Trolls cheered on.

"Go Wani!" cheered Gomdori.

"Take that cape!" shouted Kim-Petit.

"Bring him down!" said Baby Bon.

"You can overshadow her, Tresillo!" said Marimba.

"Don't strain yourself!" said Tambora with a cheeky smile.

Barb blinked. This isn't the first time she would see K-Pop and Reggaeton fighting. The last time that happened was when Tresillo and Wani fought over a blue leather jacket for their opening acts at Volcano Rock City. This resulted in them falling out of a window, unaware of their surroundings. Barb thought by now that they would be over by now since all the Trolls accepted every kind of music…but old habits die hard.

"Can I rip their cape apart?" said Baby Bon with a tempted look.

Barb shook her head. "I'll deal with this myself."

"YOU GIVE ME MY CAPE, TRACY!" shouted Wani, pulling on the cape.

"YOUR CAPE?!" hissed Tresillo as he attempted to pull the cape away. "THIS IS MY CAPE AND I BROUGHT IT ALONG!"

"BUT I DON'T HAVE A CAPE!"

"I OWN IT FIRST!"

"I SAW IT FIRST!"

Wani was cut off when Barb swung a piece of wood at her, slamming her to the ground. The K-Pop Leader fell onto the floor, dumbfounded.

"You dork," said Barb, slapping Wani on the face. "Just give Tresillo back the cape already. He's the one who brought it."

Wani groaned. "Fine!"

She threw the cape in which it hit Tresillo in the head. The Reggaeton Leader let out a yelp as his vision is blinded, slipped and fell on the floor.

"If I can't have his cape," growled Wani as she stood up. "Then I might have his hat!"

Oh, right. Tresillo is wearing a teal blue police beret. Wani immediately jumped onto him as she tried to take his head.

Barb groaned in disgust as the two leaders fought over a piece of clothing again.

"Why do you guys always mix around?" muttered Barb as she left the room.

While preparing to perform on stage, Biggie is taking photos of King Quincy and Queen Essence. The large Pop Troll clicked his camera many times, hoping to take some good photos of the Funk Royals.

"Over here!" instructed Biggie. "One last take!"

Queen Essence smiled as she gazed at her husband.

King Quincy stood tall, trying to put on an air of authority.

At this, Cooper and Prince D came in. They were helping out the Funk Trolls set up the instruments on the stage, but since their performance was going to start, they came over to inform their parents to come.

"Mum!" said Cooper. "Dad! We're up soon! Let's get ready!"

"Let's roll already!" said King Quincy.

"What a grand performance by the Pop Trolls!" shouted a voice from the speakers. "They did a great start for tonight, bringing in the mood for the party. But the best is yet to come as Queen Poppy and Branch will return to help out. For now, let's welcome the Funk Trolls!"

And so, the Funk Royal Family made their way to the stage, walking by some of the Trolls who are setting up the stage.

"Good luck," said Legsly as she stretched her legs to reach Queen Essence's level and gave her a bass guitar.

"Do your best for our performance!" called King Quincy to the Funk Trolls who are helping out on stage. "Let's have a good time and sing for everyone!"

The Funk Trolls cheered, all confident and ready.

Prince D walked up to one of the microphone stand. He looked behind to see Cooper going up behind a keyboard.

"You're ready, brother?" said Prince D.

"Always!" said Cooper with a grin.

The two brothers nodded as the curtains opened.

"Let's go!" said King Quincy.

The song started playing with Queen Essence strumming the bass, playing a low-key tone. Cooper and a few other Funk Trolls started playing their keyboards, making futuristic, trippy-like sounds. The smooth and unique sounds that are introduced showed the art and creativity in Funk Music. The lights behind them turned a shade of rick purple.

Both Quincy and Essnece started singing 'Atomic Dog'. The lyrics were created with nothing but the word 'dog' in mind and the rest was ab-libbed. It turned about to be a great song for dance and funk fame. It is atomic and futuristic, bringing in a smooth act for Funk.

Everybody started to clap along, hitting the tempo of the song.

At one point of the song, Prince D started rapping, doing his own verse of the song. He managed to rap his verse quickly and in time, striking the perfect timing for each syllable. Many Trolls cheered at this, liking his sudden rap in the song.

"Barb is kind of right when she points out that the Funk Trolls are hipster," muttered Trollex, rubbing his chin.

"Why does this sound like Pop Music?" said Delta to herself. "I can't tell the difference."

Finally, the Funk Trolls finished their song. A loud round of applause erupted from the crowd.

"Thank you!" said Prince D, taking the lead of the band. "Alright! We got two more songs for you guys! Let's pop this place."

A few Funk Trolls – including King Quincy – switched places with their arrangements on which instruments they are going to play.

"And then there were two!"

As Prince D kicked off – singing 'Then There Were Two – the drummer started playing along with Queen Essence playing the bass. The song they are playing is another smooth song, but this one sound like a bar song and focused on the genre R&B.

Throughout the song, Prince D is singing with his sweet voice along with rapping some of his lyrics, expressing his chill personality through the music.

The song seemed to build at certain parts when Prince D sang some long notes and when the trumpets played.

At the bridge, the lights dimmed a little and Prince D started to make a few dance moves while rapping, adapting to fit with his body type. Along with footwork, he tended to move his neck and head a lot in conjunction with this, bending or swinging it to the beat. He even did an impressed back-flip, raising cheers.

The song came to an end as the drums bang loudly and the trumpets played a loud note.

The crowd cheered loudly, liking Prince D's solo. The young prince smirked and turned to Cooper to give him a nod.

Cooper nodded back, feeling his heart beating in excitement.

"Thank you!" said Prince D. "We got one last song for you and it will be a real treat to all of you."

The Funk Trolls started singing 'It's All Love' – which is a different version unlike the one they sang to Poppy when she visited them – as a funky and cool sound started playing. The tempo started building up.

While the lyrics didn't talk about the history of the strings, the Funk Trolls still carried the meaning of giving love to one, the person they're referring to took the love and they want to make up all the hate going on in their world. They are invited others to join them, giving them a little love for them.

Cooper even joined along rapping with Prince D, the two brother's voices resembling the growing bond between them.

The song is pretty upbeat and groovy. All the Trolls started dancing together and then sang along when King Quincy and Queen Essence joined in during the last chorus. Bright white and rainbow lights shone around the place, creating a spectacular light show.

The song came to an end as the instrumental faded out. All the Trolls cheered loudly for the Funk Troll's amazing star performance.

"Thank you!" said Prince D. "Thanks for partying with us!"

"Well done, everyone!" said King Quincy.

Queen Essence turned to Cooper and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank you for helping us out."

"Aww!" exclaimed Cooper.

"However!" announced Prince D to the crowd. "We got ONE MORE SONG for all of you! We're heading into the Soul Zone!"

Many of the Trolls went 'ooh!' at the sound of this.

"I almost forgot to tell you all!" said a voice through the speakers. "We also have some special songs that will represent some minor but awesome genres of music! I hope that you enjoy them! Let's welcome back Branch who will be helping the Funk Trolls!"

Offstage, Branch was trying out a new costume Guy Diamond suggested him to wear; a long golden sparkly cape, a purple shirt filled with bubbles and blue shorts with blue lightning.

"Are you sure that THIS is a good idea?" said Branch as he changed his hair to blue-purple.

"I think you will look amazing in that outfit!" said Guy with a grin. "You fit right in with Funk!"

"Yeah!" said Tiny Diamond. "You will get all the ladies all your knees with that hot cape."

Branch cringed a little. "Eh…maybe I should not wear the cape."

"BRANCH!" called Cooper. "You're up!"

"Let's move already!" said Guy Diamond, giving Branch a push.

Branch stumbled on his feet as he walked onto the stage, revealing himself in front of the audience. The crowd cheered again.

The light blue Pop Troll took a deep breath. "Why…eh…thanks…I don't think I need this."

He took off the cape and threw it into the crowd. Hilariously, it is thrown back and wrapped around Branch's face. He just let it slid off before standing next to Prince D.

"We both created this song together, folks!" said Prince D. "Pop and Funk decided to collaborate for the first time."

"This song is for all of you guys," said Branch. "We're telling you to be proud of yourself."

Once he said those words, Branch started to hum, beginning their new song 'Don't Slack'.

Prince D sang first, singing the first verse and the second verse. Queen Essence swapped her bass with an acoustic guitar and strummed the strings to go off with a gentle start to the song. Branch sang the pre-chorus while he danced and hopped around with Prince D, enjoying performing with him.

The chorus rolled in and the drums started beating, building up the song. Branch and Prince D danced around, jumping around to the flow of the song. The crowd joined along, jumping up and down to the beat of the song.

Branch is glad that he chose the right theme for their song; it is about being proud of yourself and never stop connecting the lines as you don't know the power you have the whole time. It encourages those to be inspired and let go of any doubt.

As said before, Branch grew close to Prince D, the two of them becoming friends. They sang a great song together, letting their differences combine with each other. They showed all the Trolls of how differences can make a great team effort.

And the song they chose did bring out the message to everyone.

When the song ended, the crowd cheered loudly, clapping their hands.

"Thank you, everyone!" said Prince D. "Thank you for having us for tonight!"

"Let's give another thanks to Branch for helping out!" said King Quincy, pointing to the light blue Pop Troll.

The audience roared louder.

Branch smiled and waved, a little shyly.

He and the Funk Trolls made their way backstage where they are greeted by the other leaders. Branch found himself caught in a bear hug with Poppy.

"You did a good job, Branch!" squealed Poppy. "That performance is awesome! You should show me how to do the choreography of the song!"

Branch smirked a little. "Well…eh…maybe I can. I'm happy that you listened and enjoyed the song."

"I'm surprised that you decided to collaborate with Prince D. Why's that?"

Branch shrugged. "We just thought of making a song to celebrate all the Trolls reunited, so this is our tribute to that. We came together and wrote the lyrics."

"Impressive! Nice catchy beat as well."

Branch smiled as he felt his cheeks brightened.

CRASH!

A loud glass shattering could be heard not too far away.

Branch jumped up and got into an attack position.

"What was that?!" he shouted.

Poppy giggled. "Don't worry. It's just Wani and Tresillo fighting over a cape! They aren't bothering anyone, so they are fine."

True to Poppy's word, Wani and Tresillo are STILL fighting over the damn hat. They are still in the same tug-of-war, pulling hardly on the hat. They are swinging each other one in hopes to knock one out. They are still yelling curses and insults at each other in their foreign languages. However, this caused a huge mess as they accidentally kicked over a few items on the floor. They are lucky that the hat is made of leather or it would break in half.

The Reggaeton Trolls and the K-Pop Gang watched.

Baby Bon got out a bucket of popcorn, munching happily.

Gomdori and Ari are playing with spinning tops.

Kim-Petit is trying to pronounce some random Japanese words in different accents.

Marimba is nibbling on a sugar-coated churro.

Tambora is busy changing her hair colour, looking at herself in the mirror.

"You babo babo!" snarled Wani. "Give me that hat!"

('Babo babo' means 'dumb dumb' in Korean)

"In your dreams," barked Tresillo. "Fea!"

('Fea' means 'ugly' in Spanish)

This time, Wani managed to win the tug-of-war, grabbing the cape in her hands.

"It's mine!" she said as she started hugging the colorful cape. "Mine! Miney mine!"

"Not for long," said Tresillo, curling his hands into fists.

"Oh no, you don't!"

Wani quickly ran over to a table to grab a bottle of 'SUPER GLUE' and started spraying glue all over her head; from the hair to the forehead and the top of her ears. She then placed the hat onto her head, gluing it to her head.

The K-Pop Gang and the Reggaeton Trolls gasped at this.

Tresillo's mouth was hanging open. "Did…you…just…?"

Wani whooped and danced around in victory. "Yeah! Now you will NEVER take the hat away from me!"

She started to sing and dance to 'DDU-DU DDU-DU'.

Tresillo stared at his beloved hat and then looked up to his beloved, pony-tailed dreadlocks.

"Well," he said. "At least I don't need to worry about trying to TAKE OFF the hat off my hair."

Wani immediately stopped dancing around and froze. "Wait, what?"

"Your FANCY and NICELY-COMBED hair is glued to the hat," explained Marimba slowly.

Wani's eyes widened and her grin turned into a frown when she realized her mistake.

"Oh no, no, no!"

She started to try the pull the hat off her hat, but the glue had already dried, leaving the hat glued to her head. She tried to lengthen and grow her hair, but the hat is already glued to the ears and the forehead, rendering it impossible to take it off.

"It's stuck!" she shouted as she went into a full-blown panic. "I can't get it off! I can't get it off!"

"C'mon, guys!" said Baby Bon, standing up. "Let's help Wani!"

"Right!" said Gomdori, Ari and Kim-Petit.

The K-Pop girls ran over to Wani and placed her down on the floor. Baby Bon and Ari held onto the hat, and Gomdori and Kim-Petit held onto Wani's feet.

"OK!" said Baby Bon. "On 3, we pull!"

Wani's pupils shrank. "OH WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT-!"

"THREE!"

They started trying to pull the hat off Wani's head, but even with all their strength, it is fruitless as the hat only stayed onto Wani's head. The K-Pop leader screamed as she felt her teammates pulling her feet and the hat glued to her head, feeling as if she is a rubber band about to snap into half.

Tambora stroke her chin. "Why not cut the hat off?"

"Oh!" said Gomdori. "Great idea!"

The yellow troll ran out of the room and returned with a LARGE PAIR OF SCISSORS.

"Found some!" she said cheerily.

Wani screamed in an unladylike way, sounding like a man recording his own scream on a low-quality phone.

"Hold still!"

"WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, NO! I'M FINE! I'M FINE! I LIKE THE HAT ON MY HEAD! AND I JUST HAD A FRESH NEW HAIRCUT YESTERDAY! PLEASE DON'T CUT MY HAIR!"

Tresillo snickered as Gomdori loomed towards the screaming Wani with the gigantic scissors in her hands.

"I can watch this all day," he said, picking up the dropped bucket of popcorn and started munching on them.

Delta Dawn yawned a little as she strummed her banjo string absently, tuning them to make the right tune. Her performance is up next and she wanted to show what Country is really is. She strummed the strings of her banjo, but it didn't sound right. She adjusted them again and strummed them.

They sounded right.

Delta turned her eyes upwards and ruffled her hair.

"C'mon, Clampers," she said in a gentle voice. "It's time to go on stage."

"I don't want to!" whined her niece who was hidden in her red hair.

"C'mon."

"Please."

"I'm scared.

"You have to anyway."

When Clampers refused to come out, Delta shrugged, deciding to let her niece get over her stage fright first.

She turned to see Vance coming towards her, holding a large white cowboy hat.

"You need this," he said as he placed the large hat onto Delta's head.

To his cousin's surprise, the hat successfully covered her hair.

"Feels a little heavy," said Delta as she lifted the brim up. "Have you seen Hickory?"

"He's on his way," said Vance, pointing behind him.

Near some large black instrument boxes, Hickory is making sure that his costume as a Country Troll was stable and easy to move around.

"You're ready, partner?" said Hickory, patting his back.

"So in the first song," said Dickory under the pants. "I don't have to move around, but in the second and third song, I have to tap my feet to the beat?"

"Yeah, remember that."

"Fantastic job, Funk Trolls!" said a voice from the speakers. "You blew the roof off this house with those hip hop beats! I can't wait to see more from you. Right now, let's make things a little hotter; we have Delta Dawn and the Country Trolls here!"

"Oh shoot," said Delta. "We got to go right now!"

"Let's skidaddle!" said Hickory with a confident grin.

"Let's do this!" said Vance.

The three leaders of Country made their way onto stage where there are a few Country Trolls getting their instruments ready along with some going to be the dancers.

"Is everybody ready?" said Delta, looking around.

"Yep!" said Hickory, picking up a guitar.

"Put on your game faces on! Let's bring the rodeo here!"

At the sound of her voice, the curtains unfolded. The crowd cheered. Delta and Hickory couldn't help but cheer as well.

"Thank you so much for having us here!" said Delta as she held her banjo up in a good position. "So, we got 3 more songs for you guys!"

Delta started to tap her feet in an up-tempo, strumming her banjo loud enough for everyone to hear. More guitars started playing and the drums started banging with Vance and Hickory joining in.

The Country Trolls started their act with 'Ex's and Oh's'; an up-tempo blues rock song with elements of their favorited Country Music and a swing beat. The song has a kick-butt melody to it, defining the toughness and fierceness of their tribe.

Delta took the lead, singing about her old lovers and how they all come back to her, wanting love. She also explained her feelings toward her boyfriends quickly shift and her carelessness over the relationship. The title evokes Tic-Tac-Toe as she treats the relationships as a game of past relationships and climaxes.

The Country Trolls around Delta are doing a line dance, kicking their front feet upwards and side to side. They created a perfect circle line around Delta.

The crowd danced and clapped around, liking the song's catchy and attractive sound. It has the ballsy, brash and profoundly unapologetic tone, symbolizing Delta's snappy and sharp attitude.

The song ended when both Delta and Hickory played a sharp chord with their instruments, nearly similar to how Rock Trolls would do.

The crowd cheered, liking the opening performance of the Country Trolls.

"Thank you!" said Delta, raising her banjo in the air. "Thank you! Now, let's do a little switcheroo here! Right, cousin?"

"Alright!" said Vance. "I want all of you to stomp your feet for this one! This is for all of you!"

Delta started to play her banjo while Hickory picked up a fiddle, the two of them starting to tap their feet to the beat.

The crowd started to clap and stomp their feet, joining in the song.

The song they were doing is similar to the song Delta and Vance sang before, but even though it is in the same tune, the song is completely different and the lyrics are about something else.

Using his deep and husky voice, Vance sang about two friends loving each other and sticking together, despite them being 'different as different can be'. Parallel to the separation of all the Trolls in the past, he described how friends may fight, but in the end, they are still friends. It carried a message to all the Trolls that they are all together as a reunited nation.

Delta and Hickory sang along, backing Vance up. At some points, Hickory would try to sing some of the lyrics in his German accent or do some yodels, but he quickly switched back to his Southern accent when Delta gave him curious looks.

The message of the song brought most of the Trolls to have a good heart-warming feeling. They already accepted each other and along with using their differences to help each other, they became good allies and friends with each other, making one huge family.

"You and me are gonna be friends, yeah!"

The song ended with Delta strumming the strings, letting the sound fade in the atmosphere.

All the Trolls cheered loudly and clapped their hands.

Vance grinned, one filled with pride and satisfaction.

"Thank you!" he shouted. "And you're welcome!"

Delta chuckled. "Thanks, cousin. You did a great job doing this little ditty. I'm sure that it doesn't get better than this! We have one last song for you, guys."

Hickory picked up his guitar and started playing along with the drummer beating the drums. The volume slowly increased for a 'fading-in' intro of the song 'John Wayne'. Delta took the lead for this last song, singing about the narrator's romantic attraction to rugged, cowboy types, exploring the constant need to chase wild men.

This Country song is a little different; it features elements of country, disco, rock, funk and house music. When adding in the feeling of the cowboy life, the band put in tinny Euro-house synths, slowed-down funk drums and a boot-scooting bass line. It nearly sound like a Rock song, but it nailed the style of Country Music.

The crowd sang and danced along, loving the gritting riffing, the spiky but fluid breaks and the imaginative lead vocals. This song surprised a lot of people because it contains elements of the other genres, making it an international Country song.

During the outro, Hickory started playing the guitar, making an impressive Rock-like chord. He showed off a little by doing a back-flip (which wasn't easy since Dickory was at the back) and flirted a little at Delta.

Delta blushed, trying to look serious. She looked the other way…

…to see Vance twerking his butt in front of her as a joke.

Delta smacked his bottom with her banjo in response.

Vance fell over and landed onto his face as the song finished.

The crowd cheered loudly, already enjoying the Country Trolls' performance. At that moment, half of them felt a little bit 'Country', feeling a little tempted to do something reckless.

Delta Dawn grinned and bowed down. "Thank you all! Thank you!"

"Have a good rest of the night, folks!" said Hickory.

The Country Trolls made their way off the stage. Vance is still knocked out – his eyes spinning around in dizziness – so Delta dragged him away and into backstage.

"Beautiful job there, Miss Dawn," said Trollzart. "You did a nice impression on Country."

"You totally rock the place!" said Trollex.

"I really like your performance!" said Charleston.

Delta grinned, waving her hand. "Ah. Don't mention it."

"Delta!" said Poppy, running up to the Country Sheriff. "You did a FANTASTIC job out there! I guess that Country Music can be happy and a little bit sensual."

This caused Delta to blush a little. "Yeah…whatever."

"That last song nearly sound like bubblegum pop music! You were saying?"

Delta rolled her eyes. "OK, OK. I'll admit that Pop Music isn't that bad. Speaking of which, is Barb still searching for Riff?"

"She is," said Poppy, rubbing the back of her head. "So far, she hasn't found him yet."

Barb groaned in worry as she scratched her head. In a few minutes, the Rock Trolls need to get ready for the Indie Trolls' performance and she still can't find her drummer! She had checked every room and every place around Pop Village, but no sign of Riff.

Then, it hit her. While she thought about all the places Riff could be at, she didn't thought on the places which are LESS obvious.

Her eyes widened.

Trollex's chest of cancerous dubstep beats.

She had a vivid memory of Riff coming in before she ran off.

Nobody realized that he was sucked in by the storm!

She ran off, heading back to backstage.

She found the dark chest with neon lines still in its place.

Nobody is around it or in the room at the moment.

Barb came close to the chest. It suddenly leapt upwards like a muscle jerking. White electricity bounced from its walls.

Cautiously, she looked around. The Rock Queen doesn't want to do this, but she has no choice.

She took a deep breath, put on her tough face and flipped open the lid.

Well…she only did it halfway because the second she managed to make a gap, she felt the beat's vibrations blasting in her face. It is the strength of a strong current, getting her lips and cheeks stretched backwards and flapping in the air. Random items popped out with tail fins repeatedly slapping Barb in the face. Bright neon lasers poured out from the chest, blinding Barb in the face. The loud music is unbearable and the hardcore bass nearly made her ears bleed.

The thing that caught her attention is the loud shriek from it. It sounded like…children crying in high pitch. Like they are screaming for help.

It sounded VERY similar to the shriek she heard from her vision this morning.

She remembered the bear head in front of her and its shriek was so awful that she can't forget it.

"What is up against those creepy things?" thought Barb, fighting against the wind. "Are they related to Charleston's parents' disappearance?"

She tried to put the pieces together, but she heard a loud goat-like screaming in the chest. Barb remembered about her mission to find Riff, so she started digging her hand into the chest.

It took her a while, but she managed to grab a sweaty hand and pulled its owner out. Riff screamed as he crashed onto the floor. His beanie is tattered, his hair is more messier than usual and his jacket is nearly torn into shreds.

Barb quickly slammed the lid, stopping the storm and its screams.

"Riff!" said Barb with a cheery smile. "You're still alive! Sorry for leaving you nearly dead."

Riff tried to say something, but he was too dizzy to form proper words. "Y-Y-Yeah…i-i-i-i-t-t-t's f-f-f-f-fin-e-e-e…j-j-j-just sa-a-a-a-a-w a-a-a-a l-l-lot of t-t-things…I think I even saw the future…"

He sat up, rubbing his forehead as he felt a headache flared up. "What did I missed?"

"Well," said Barb. "Classical went first, then Pop, then Funk and then Country. The Reggaeton Trolls are about to go on stage by now!"

"So you want to help along?" said Tresillo.

"Yeah," said Branch. "The K-Pop Gang asked me to help them out when one of their songs play and I thought that it would be fair to join you guys. I really like your music."

The Reggaeton Leader raised an eyebrow. "I'm not sure. Sorry, no offence. I like how you can dance with us and you can sing…the problem here is that you don't know Spanish or Latin."

"Is that a major problem?"

"Most of the songs we chose are Spanish, so…"

Tresillo's eyes seemed to brighten up. "Actually, there is one song that is suitable for you. One of our songs includes mostly English lyrics and I think you're perfect for that song."

He pulled out a lyrics paper out from his dreadlocks and gave it to Branch. "Revise this a little and you'll know the song."

Branch stared at the paper in his hands. He blinked as he stared at the words. "Hmm…they are a little off…no offence."

Tresillo chuckled. "Well…that's Reggaeton music these days. Our lyrics can be pretty inappropriate."

"I think I can hit the notes in this," said Branch. "Call me when you're ready."

Tresillo nodded. "Cuenta conmigo, amigo."

"What does that mean?"

"That means 'count on me, friend'!"

"What a powerful performance by the Country Trolls!" yelled a voice through the speakers. "I can still feel the heat and the whiplash from their leather-covered yet tuneful songs. The heat is going to rise for this one; we have the Reggaeton Trolls to bring out the beach here!'

"We are up," said Tresillo. "I'll see you later."

"Good luck!" said Branch.

Tresillo ran off to find Marimba and Tambora.

"You're ready?" said Tambora.

"Always," said Tresillo with a smirk.

He looked down to at himself. A colorful vest that has Latin-inspired zig-zag patterns draped on his shoulders and a black belt with a gold buckle.

He looked back at Marimba and Tambora who are wearing clothing that has the same patterns on them. The former is wearing a vest and golden necklaces, and the latter is wearing a ripped shirt with golden bangles on her right ankle.

Tresillo felt that it was a good choice this noon, but now he wished that he had chosen something else.

He shrugged that thought off by reminding himself that Reggaeton Trolls don't need to wear clothes along with the Funk Trolls, the Classical Trolls and the Techno Trolls.

"Let's do this, guys," said Tresillo. "We have a show to run!"

The three Reggaeton Trolls made their way to the stage, getting into position. They placed their hands over the left side of their faces as their beginning poses. The curtains rolled and the crowd found the place to be in yellow and orange lights.

They started off their act with 'Calypso'; a ukulele started playing, creating a Tropical vibe to their song. Marimba and Tambora sang a few rap lines, bringing in the Reggae genre.

When the beat and the first verse started, Tresillo sang in Spanish, bringing a slick groove to the song. He sang in Spanish about a beach-side romance through a steel drum hook. The song is lighthearted that is sunny, colorful and bright as the summer time. As he sang, flower petals slowly fell from above, covering the stage in flowers.

At the chorus, Tresillo played up the multi-cultural vibe by counting to three in multiple languages. He and his girls did an easy, memorial dance, encouraging everyone to copy them. They found many to be perfectly in-sync with their moves.

During the second verse, Marimba and Tambora rapped in English, still showing the freshness of their music. They managed to do their verse well as they switched lead vocals quickly at certain times.

By the end of the song, they got everyone dancing along with them as the light, tropical music played behind them. The song finally finished.

"Calypso…"

The entire crowd cheered; the mood of the party Is almost like a beach hangout.

"Thank you!" said Tresillo. "We are here tonight to show you our music. Reggaeton means a lot of things and it's not just about love. Take it away, amigos."

Marimba and Tambora smiled and stepped forwards, taking the lead.

Reggaeton music started playing and it sounded more rebellious and retro. The two Reggaeton girls spun around as they started their song 'La Respuesta'. They took the lead, singing that they don't need a man to do things in their life and the requests she has for him. Their song serves to young women as a power anthem about breaking stereotypes.

At the choruses, they did a squad dance, using a lot of hip and arm movements. They are doing a lot of interactions as Marimba and Tambora pretended to be rebelling against Tresillo. The trio's quick and strong moves got everyone to cheer for them.

Tresillo sang the second verse, claiming that as an independent man himself, he doesn't need a woman to do his tasks as he can do them themselves. He claims a guy like him is interested in independent women and hoping to be the one for them. Nobody knows if he is being truthful or is lying.

Overall, the song nearly sounded like a classic pop song with a cute tune, a vibrant sound with a steady beat and an attitude suited for rebellious girls.

They did the final pose; Tresillo standing in the middle while both the girls did impressive splits.

The crowd cheered as the music faded away.

"Great job, amigos," said Tresillo as he highfived Marimba and Tambora. "Remember everyone; treat your women respectively…or like a queen."

Marimba smirked. "You don't have to treat us royally. We're teammates."

"Nice comment though," said Tambora. "Anyway, let's put in some party tunes for this next song. Get ready to move your hair!"

As the crowd got themselves ready for the next song, Tambora picked up a nearby saxophone. The beat started and the Reggaeton Troll started playing the saxophone, making a Romania-House sound. Everyone started to jump up and down as soon as the song started. Tresillo and Marimba got into position while Tambora jumped onto a small black platform.

Marimba took the lead vocals, singing a typical party song that is simple and trashy, but with a fiesta-friendly attitude and a catchy ode to soda pop. She and Tresillo danced around, dancing as a samba duet which includes swinging each other around.

With Tambora playing the saxophone, there are Latino dance-floor sounds, with a blend of electro house music, an offbeat-bass and a horn-heavy breakdown. Every time there is a chorus instrumental, Tambora belted out her solo, swinging the saxophone as the crowd danced along. She started to feel as if she is in Chaz's place…except the music is more energetic than smooth.

Tresillo had his own rap verse, rapping in Spanish. He jumped from Marimba's left and right, swinging his dreadlocks around. At one point, Marimba started acting as if she wants Tresillo and flirted with him as a gesture to be with her. When Tresillo sang 'shake out babe', he playfully pushed Marimba.

Marimba struggled not to laugh as she sang the last chorus. The tempo builded up and all three Reggaeton Trolls got close together, jumping up and down together. Tambora continued to play her saxophone, nearly hitting Tresillo in the face.

The song finished with them bumping into each other with their bottoms.

The crowd cheered when the song finished. It os more louder than before, all agreeing that this is the perfect party song in Reggaeton Music.

"Yeah!" said Tresillo. "How do you like it?"

Tambora panted from blowing the saxophone a little too hard. She is nearly out of breath. She placed it down on the stage and held onto her beating heart.

"So…much…energy…" she said with a quirky smile.

"That's alright," said Marimba. "Normally, our dances requires a lot of energy."

"We got one last song for all of you," informed Tresillo. "However, we have a guest who is going to help us. You might already know him by the name 'Branch'."

Backstage, Branch put on a tropical outfit; a magenta button-down shirt with a tropical pattern of black, yellow and orange palm leaves, turquoise chiro pants with a black belt and a large gold bracelet.

"I'm off again," he said as he made his way onto the stage.

Half of the Trolls in the crowd hummed in surprise and clapped in approval. They are surprised that Branch is going to help out with another genre…and this one is lingual.

"OK," said Branch. "I'm ready!"

"Shall we?" said Tresillo as a guitar in the background started to play. "My G!"

At this, the music started, playing 'Familiar'. Branch took the main lead, singing in English. He sang about impressing a love interest in a nightclub, blending in the feels of a typical-city setting. The song combines Latin vibes with a summery, R&B sound, making a perfect Reggaeton Pop song. Tresillo would sing sometimes during the verses and in the choruses, but he focused on dancing.

During the verses, Branch would walk around the stage as the Reggaeton Trolls circled around him. When the choruses began, he started to dance. He is surprised that the first few moves are just simple and easy to do. He felt a little disappointed, but decided to just go with the flow. The moves are good and alluring enough to get him to feel the beat.

The crowd clapped along, whooping for the performers on stage.

Branch only noticed that the dance became extreme when Tresillo started his verse, singing in Spanish. They formed a circle and ran around to switch positions, similar to their dance in 'Mi Gente' one month ago. They took turns, having the person in front showed of their skills.

Marimba went first, doing a lot of twirls like a ballerina.

Tambora went next, doing an impressive back-flip.

Tresillo did the known 'whacking' hand dances around his head, posing and emphasizing on expressiveness.

Branch went last. He got into a crouch – all three Reggaeton Trolls pointing at him – and stand up while shaking his hands out to the side.

They all sang the last chorus, their dance becoming more faster. Branch is enjoying the sharp rush of this dance and he enjoyed doing hip and hand movements he learnt long ago. It felt so good for him to do this kind of challenging dance again.

The song came to an end when the Reggaeton Trolls spun around and slid away, making different poses. Branch just spun around and crossed his arms, smirking.

The crowd cheered loudly, impressed by Branch's ability to copy the Reggaeton Trolls' dance in style. Who knows that a Pop Troll can adapt to another dance?

"Thank you!" said Tresillo, making the peace sign. "Expect to see Branch up on stage again when the K-Pop Gang perform!"

He, Branch, Marimba and Tambora made their way off the stage before being greeted by the leaders.

"That was awesome!" said Prince D, fist-bumping Branch. "You got the soul in Reggaeton, man."

Branch shrugged. "Hey. I already got used to this and I'm liking it."

"I'm surprised that this squad managed to conduct a perfect summer season for this concert," said Trollzart. "Must be a swell aspect for a party like this."

Tresillo smirked. "Likewise, Mr Trollzart."

Poppy rushed up to Branch. "I didn't know that you can dance to Reggaeton as well! No wonder why you got their respect."

Branch grinned. "Yeah…I know that the first meeting wasn't pleasant, but I love their dances and I thought of trying them out."

"Are you going to do the same with the K-Pop Gang?"

"Yep. Speaking of them, where are they?"

"Barb is helping them get prepared. They just need to make a few things to do before they get onto stage."

Wani winced as she managed to pull off the last few glue bits on her forehead. She managed to tear off the hat off her hat and…to put it in a short long story, they had to use the HARD way if Wani wanted to protect her hair. At least her hair is fine in the end, slightly messy. She just combed it to the side, letting the bangs hang from the side of her head.

"You REALLY want to wear this?" said Barb, holding up a leather vest.

"Yep," said Baby Bon. "Kind of fits hip-hop."

"Leather…isn't really for hip-hop."

"At least a few of our songs have a few Rock elements in it!"

Baby Bon took the vest and placed it on top of her red-pink top and black tight skirt, completing her look.

Wani looked to the side to see Kim-Petit and Gomdori checking themselves out in the mirror as they put on their outfits.

Gomdori is wearing a yellow puffer vest, a dark blue top and a matching skirt. She gingerly tied a few strands of her hair with a pink ribbon bow.

Kim-Petit decides to settle with a maroon red latex shirt with no sleeves, black ripped jeans and a black beanie that covers her head with her lavender hair hanging from the right side of her head.

"You're placing a hat over your head?" said Gomdori, tilting her head.

Kim-Petit smiled. "The bangs poking out makes it look like I have an asymmetrical hairstyle!"

Ari skipped towards Wani. She is wearing a white leather vest, black tight leggings with golden stripes and white pins holding up her hair on the left side.

"You're ready?" said the green-haired troll.

Wani brushed her arm, taking one last look of her chosen outfit. As the leader of the K-Pop Gang, she chose a blue top that is shiny, golden necklaces with Korean symbols, black finger-less gloves and black track pants with yellow lines.

"Yep!" said Wani, brushing a hand through her hair.

"What a spectacular performance by the Reggaeton Trolls!" said a voice from the speakers. "I'm now feeling like going to the beach already! I feel pumped from these guys! Right now, we have the rivals of those terrific trio; can the K-Pop Gang prove that they are worthy on the stage?"

"That's us!" said Wani, standing up. "It's our time to LITERALLY shine!"

At the sound of her voice, a few Pop Trolls walked pass them, heading towards the stage. As the backup dancers, they grew their hair longer and styled it like the K-Pop Trolls, and are wearing matching outfits consisting of black face masks, black shirts (for men) or tops (for women) and black shorts. They are also wearing glossy-chrome jackets to match the glossy-chrome skin of the K-Pop Gang.

"Alright, girls!" called Wani. "This is it! Come here! Group up!"

Gomdori, Ari, Baby Bon and Kim-Petit huddled together, forming a circle.

"Listen here," said Wani. "We worked so hard to be here and this is going to be more exciting than our jobs as bounty hunters. Now let's have an amazing time out there!"

All them cheered, ready to perform on stage. They made their way to the stage.

"Let's do this!" said Baby Bon, punching her fist in the air.

"Bring out the big guns!" said Gomdori.

"Pathihaja!" said Kim-Petit.

('Pathihaja' means 'let's party' in Korean)

"Let's dance!" said Ari.

The stage went quiet and everything went dark as the curtains unfolded.

The song started, music playing in the background as a futuristic sound played and a high-pitched 'hey' kept repeating.

All the lights turned neon blue, purple, pink and mint green.

The backup dancers started dancing, kicking off the first K-Pop song 'POP/STARS'.

Kim-Petit first got onto stage, marching across while swinging her hips. Her verse is rather catchy and have a few half-rap lines. As she made her way to the middle, she swung around and bent down on her knees, making an attractive pose.

Gomdori went next, walking to the right of Kim-Petit. She sung in a nearly low and angel-like voice, catching the attention of many men. She held her jacket with her right hand as she spun around, the light catching the shine of her skin.

As the pre-chorus started, all the backup dancers lined up to make a path for the remaining three K-Pop Trolls to come up on stage. Wani sang in a thick Korean accent as she walked across the stage along with Baby Bon and Ari on both of her sides.

The K-Pop Gang got together in a line as they started dancing to the chorus. The music is hard-hitting and energetic, having a lot of hip-hot beats and a melodic line behind it. It got everyone to dance and sing along the song. At the second half of the chorus, Ari got her time to sing her part while the rest of the team danced around her.

Baby Bon took over for the second verse, rapping in both Korean and English. People would say that this is 'straight fire' because she nailed it. Her movements are really quick and unique from the normal K-Pop dances she and her girls usually would do.

The rest of the song is magnificent and nostalgic as the K-Pop Gang and their backup dancers did an awesome performance of their self-empowerment song.

"Ain't nobody bringing us down, down, down, down!"

By the time they finished, the crowd cheered, wanting more.

Wani raised her hands in the air in the style of the peace sign. "Thank you!"

"This is so much fun!" said Baby Bon.

"You did great on the rapping, Baby Bon," said Gomdori, giggling.

"Alright!" said Wani. "We're bringing in a thing call 'fun' and it's about to get down. Here we go!"

Their next song 'How You Like That' started playing with an intro of an orchestral, giving off a suspense feeling to this one. The K-Pop Gang got into position for this song as well as the backup dancers.

They started the voice with a gentle Techno keys, all singing in Korean. They sang of how they want to soar as high as possible, even if they are flying in darkness. Their song brings another message of women empowerment in a more slick and serious way. Their first verse kept things gentle and nearly innocent, but then, it got real when the chorus started.

In the chorus break, the K-Pop Gang did a quick and powerful formation dance while Bollywood-inspired music played in the background with a prominent, crisp trap beat. Their dance and song brought out a grand and intense tone featuring explosive beat drops.

Baby Bon and Kim-Petit rapped along, bringing a stomping charisma to their music. The other three Trolls danced around them, making a few impressive tricks including holding onto each other and moved their arms as if an electric current was going through their bodies.

The brassy electropop song continued on, getting everyone dancing to the breezy synth hooks and infectious vocal melodies. At the end of the song, the performers got together to form an army, making the final pose.

The crowd cheered again, clapping wildly.

"Wow!" said Wani. "You guys are crazy doing this one! I hope that you're all having a good time so far!"

"Feeling like a sinner at the moment," joked Kim-Petit.

"We didn't do anything wrong here," said Ari.

"This third song is more bright," said Wani. "This time, we are inviting Branch back onto stage again!"

The crowd went 'ooh' again.

Wani rushed to the left of the stage and dragged Branch onto the stage. Branch was already dressed for his participation; he is wearing a glossy-chrome jacket zipped up to the collar, golden necklaces and black pants. To top it off, his hair is black (in which the K-Pop Gang suggested that since they believed Korean people naturally have black hair) and is long enough to be styled in the same hairstyle like the K-Pop Gang.

A few Trolls laughed at the sight of Branch's temporary hairstyle.

"Don't drag me up here, Wani," said Branch, blushing a little.

"But the boss calls her finest male dancer to come up," said Wani with a smirk.

"OK, OK…I'm up here to dance along to your sanguine music."

"Don't underestimate us yet."

The next song 'Boy With Luv' began and the K-Pop Gang got Branch to be standing in the middle. They began to vocalise as light, funk-laced instruments played. The backup dancers went off the stage for this segment.

Wani started singing the song along with her girls, taking turns to take the lead. Their song is about happiness and love, describing how true strength and love come from finding joy in the smallest things in life as the strongest focuses for someone to have. Their song is bright and colorful, Branch being the main subject to hear the lovely song. He found himself following the K-Pop Gang as they moved across the stage from one end to another.

The chorus started, becoming airy and upbeat. Branch sang and danced along, singing the English parts. The K-Pop Gang see him as an equal, a friend and a part of the group, letting him join in with them. As Branch sang along, the girls sang in Korean in way of encouraging Branch to learn to love himself and make him feel happier in life.

Branch enjoyed the song, letting the happiness flow through his body. He is surprised how the song seemed to fly by already as he and the K-Pop Gang swung around and crossed their arms over their chests; the same final pose they did when they first met.

The crowd cheered loudly, dazzled by Branch's special contribution to Funk, Reggaeton and K-Pop.

"Thank you for having me up here!" said Branch as he made his way offstage…and grabbed by Poppy in a tight embrace.

While the audience couldn't see that, the K-Pop Gang giggled at what they saw offstage.

"He IS boy with love," said Wani with a smirk.

"He sure is," said Baby Bon.

"A cute one as well," said Gomdori.

"Shall we finish this off with the last song?" asked Ari.

"Yes!" said Kim-Petit. "The last song is my favourite."

"We sure can," said Wani, spinning around. "Let's finish this off with a bang!"

They got into positions as the backup dangers returned, abandoning their face masks.

A loud carnival-like noise started playing with a pounding circus drum and a strange chime. The K-Pop Gang started walking around in a circle, twirling their fingers around.

"Are you ready for this?" Wani shouted. "Zimzalabim!"

With that, the song started and the girls started dancing. Their song tells their audience to unfold a dream that is held deeply in their heart, accompanied by a soaring electro-pop and funky percussive melodies. They sang in Korean, the energy and roller-coaster ride in their voices.

Through the song, they have an addicting chorus (that for some reason sounds like a cult), tinny hip-hop chants, EDM dance breaks and chill, groovy moments. Along with the neon lights behind them, they made the party a colorful parade, making an extravagant soundscape that pushes creative boundaries with grave, style and a sprinkle of magic.

The crowd sang along, jumping up and down to the song. They all felt the pure energy of the song spreading through all of them. They kept chanting 'Zimzalabim!' as the K-Pop Gang did their dance breaks and at the outro of the song.

The five girls made the final pose with Wani in the middle, smiling brightly.

The crowd cheered loudly, already loving the new side of Pop Music.

"Thank you!" said Wani. "Thank you, everyone!"

"Yes!" said Baby Bon.

"You were amazing, guys," said Gomdori.

"No," corrected Kim-Petit. "WE are all amazing, including everyone!"

"Have a great night, everyone!" said Ari.

With that, the K-Pop Gang and the backup dancers made their way off the stage, shouting in excitement over their performance.

"Whoo!" said Poppy. "Great job, guys! You did great. No wonder why your music is similar to Pop Music."

"K-Pop Music is a new genre," said Wani. "Remember that."

The K-Pop Leader spotted Tresillo staring wide-eyed at her, obviously shocked of how Wani managed to pull off a performance so good that the crowd loved them more than Reggaeton.

Wani smirked and went up to Tresillo. "Now, tell me what. You said that our music is silly, but ask our guests."

Tresillo's eye twitched.

King Trollex raised an eyebrow critically as Satin and Chenille showed him their shelf full of headphones in many colorful designs.

"You seriously have that many headphones?" he said.

"Yep!" said Satin. "DJ Suki and other DJs in Pop Village normally have them."

"We made these for them to not only to look stylish but also use," said Chenille.

Trollex smiled slightly. "I see. Still trying to believe that Pop Trolls sometimes play Techno Music."

Satin and Chenille giggled as they started to show Trollex the headphones. All of them are the same size, but with different designs.

They offered one pair that is white, has light blue cans with pink flowers on them and seemingly made from yarn.

Trollex shook his head. "No."

Satin and Chenille looked at each other before shrugging, throwing the headphones up into the air.

CLONK!

It landed onto Trollex's head unexpectedly.

"Ow!" he said, rubbing the bump on his head.

The next pair is VERY PINK with pink glitter decorated all over it and the cans have heart shapes on them.

Trollex shook his head. "Too girly."

"But isn't your heart and tailfin pink as well?" asked Satin and Chenille.

Trollex looked at his chest to see his beating pink heart. He curled his tail fins to see the pink pixels on them.

"Yeah…but not my style."

Satin and Chenille shrugged and threw the headphones up in the sky.

CLONK!

They landed onto Trollex's head again.

The next pair is all black, made from metal, decorated in spikes and have red rings.

Trollex flinched at the sight of the 'Rock' headphones. "OK. That is too emo."

Satin and Chenille both shared a chuckle before throwing the headphones upwards.

CLONK!

Of course, it hit Trollex in the head.

And so they go; Satin and Chenille merrily offered a few headphones, but Trollex refused to wear them due to their strange and idiosyncratic designs. The twins would occasionally threw the headphones in the air, oblivious that they would fall onto Trollex's head every time they threw them away.

"Alright! Alright!" hissed Trollex after being hit in the head after the 21st time. "Enough! Stop wasting your stock! Let me at least see what's in there."

With a sheepish whistle, Satin and Chenille stepped aside in different directions. Trollex went under the arc of their connected hair and scanned through the large shelf. There are so many headphones and they are all poppified. None of them attracted him and some of them scared him. He is about to give up when…

"Hmm?" he said. "What this?"

Catching his attention was a pair of headphones in different bands of colors. The flamboyant headphones stood out from the other headphones, being the only one that looks like a rainbow.

The colors matched his glowing arms.

With a grin, he gingerly took them and placed them over his head, letting the cans cover his ear fins.

"This is perfect!" he said, turning to the twins. "Thank you, girls!"

Satin and Chenille squealed at Trollex's now-complete outfit; along with the rainbow headphones, he is sporting neon green shield sunglasses and a new black vest with a rainbow pattern resembling an audio visualizer. His pony-tailed silky hair blows freely in the air.

"You DO look like the king of all DJs," said Satin.

"Fitting for a rainbow troll!" added Chenille.

Trollex smiled and flexed his arms a little. "Well, you're talking to the king of Techno."

"I'm actually…lost…for words!" exaggerated a voice from the speakers. "I mean…SERIOUSLY! What a great show from the K-Pop Gang! They had everything for the night. That's how you make a party started! Let's see if King Trollex can bring out an awesome rave for Techno Music!"

"That's me! I'm up now."

"Good luck!" said Satin and Chenille.

Trollex grinned and flew off. He flew his way to the stage, nearly slapping a few passing Trolls by his fins accidentally. He passed by Bliss Marina and Queen Ursula.

"Good luck, Trollex!" said Marina. "Make sure to drop the beat."

"Make it loud!" said Ursula, pumped in excitement.

Trollex grinned at his friend and mother. "I'll make sure to do so. It'll be a treat for all of you!"

He managed to arrive onto the stage where he bumped into TBDB.

"King Trollex!" said the button fish. "You're ready to take the stage!"

"I'm sure am!" said Trollex. "It's going to be one heck of a night."

"It feels a little doing a party rave up here. Back in the ocean, everyone gets to dance and party around freely and go in groups of their colors. Up here, most of the Trolls don't get to hover upwards or group up in colors."

"Must be called 'ordered chaos' for this one. I hope that the mosh pit isn't too crowded for them to prevent them from having a blast."

They flew towards where the DJ booth was set at. It is plugged into the speakers and all the systems are turned on.

Hovering above it are two male Techno Trolls; one is mint green with white eyes, mouth and hair, and wears a futuristic black helmet that covers his face with a dark visor, glowing neon bracelets around his neck and black sport tape wrapped around his arms. The other one is a crimson red with purple eyes, mouth and hair, and wears a cyan and black urban air mask that wraps around his neck and a black belt with blue pixel-shaped pouches.

"Hey guys!" said Trollex warmly as he went towards his DJ booth. "8-Bittowell. You got your keyboard guitar here?"

The mint green troll lifted up the visor of his helmet to reveal his face and lifted up a large keyboard guitar that was in colors of neon blue and purple.

"I got it right here, dude!" he said.

"Are the keyboard synthesizers and sound mixer boards ready, Kelpivixx?" said Trollex.

The red troll came over, stretching his knuckles. "Yep! It's ready, your majesty."

TBDB flew over and sat onto the DJ booth in the place he would be at.

"You're ready, little buddy?" said Trollex.

"Let's do this!" said the button fish.

The curtains unfolded and the crowd cheered loudly.

"What's up, everyone?!" shouted Trollex, hovering slightly upwards for everyone to see him. "Alright! We got 3 songs for you all, so I want all of you to jump when the beat drops."

Blue and green lights shone over him as he and his two companions started their song 'You & Me'.

8-Bittowell pressed the keys of his guitar, starting off the song with a guitar-like intro. Trollex sang loudly, repeating the lines of a failing love life as he is trying to catch up with a mysterious girl he is relating to. The kicker started when he played the keyboard with Kepivixx helping along for certain instruments.

When the chorus break began, Trollex pressed TBDB, dropping the beat. A loud colorful shock-wave exploded around the stage and everyone felt the vibration, giving them a sense of satisfaction. 8-Bittowell and Kelpivixx sang the chorus parts, using their auto-tuned voices for special effects.

Trollex loved the synthetic, futuristic feel of Techno Music. He felt proud and thrilled to be pressing buttons, flicking switches and moving discs on their spinning plates again with the help of his friends. The music of the song is groove-oriented, synth and bass-heavy, bringing in a light mellow sound for everyone to enjoy. He even brought the familiar bubble sounds as an ocean vibe.

The fast tempo and the sweet melody is pleasing for everyone and some of them started to do crowd surfing, much to everyone's amusement. Trollex slammed his hand onto the button, dropping the beat again.

Everyone cheered as the song faded out.

"Thank you, everyone!" said Trollex. "You all did amazing! A sublime way to start the party, huh? Alright, let's head on to the next song, but this one is going to be REALLY loud."

They started playing a few kicking-like beats, beginning their second song 'Rock 'N' Roll (Will Take You to the Mountain'. Trollex grabbed a microphone and sang into it, his voice recorded becoming a little high-pitched. A fresh clapping beat played in the background as all the lights flashed around him.

When Trollex dropped the beat, 8-Bittowell started playing his guitar, making loud electrifying noises in the style of how a Rock Troll would do. The tunes were nearly brutal and low-tuned. The crowd started jumping to the rhythm of the song, finding this song rather forceful and sturdy.

During the drops of the song, 8-Buttowell played a harmonious and rebellious chord with drums and other instruments played in the background. Rainbow lights started shining everywhere, making a bright kaleidoscope in the dark.

"Bangarang! Rang! Oh you!" sang Trollex, spinning around.

Backstage, Barb watched, surprised to see Trollex's hidden energetic and abrasive melodies in the song.

"That guy's a firecracker," started the Rock Queen. "He knows how to pull off that kind of song."

Bliss Marina smirked. "Do you want to know why the song includes 'rock 'n' roll' in it?"

Barb raised an eyebrow. "I don't hear a proper guitar in the sound. Not a real guitar."

"That's the point; I know that I'm not supposed to spoil this, but Trollex is somewhat showing off to you that Techno is STILL music. It can be emo like Rock Music."

Barb blinked, a little guilty and dumbfounded. "I see..."

The song finally ended, fading out. The crowd cheered loudly.

"Alright!" said Trollex. "Are you all hyped by now?!"

The crowd roared back.

"Good! This is our last song, but this one is a little different."

"You got this, King Trollex!" said 8-Bittowell.

"Remember the lyrics, dude!" said Kelpivixx.

"Let's put this show on the road!" said TBDB.

"Alright!" said Trollex. "Let's do this!"

He took out his father's trident from his hair and placed it into three holes of the DJ booth. He turned it around and pulled it like a switch.

"This is for my father," he said to himself. "The former king."

Their new song 'Circus' opened with the sound of a drum and slowly built up until Trollex started singing. He delivered a message about being an entertainer and putting on shows. His companions started playing electro sounds with him along with a stomp box beat.

At the pre-chorus, Trollex flew upwards as a guitar played, an element of pop rock. He explained his emotions when performing in lines, claiming that he loves the adrenaline feel in his veins, the spotlight on him and telling everyone to be ready.

He slammed onto the button, dropping the beat. He began singing the chorus using confident 'half-rapped' vocals while an electronic sound played carnival-styled. Everybody started dancing and sang along as they felt the vibration of the beat. This circus-like song brings out the whiplash of the night and the confidence of a true king.

When the second verse arrived, Tresillo suddenly dropped down from the ceiling. It turned out, he challenged Wani to another dance-off and they got the Techno King's permission to do so. For starters, Tresillo did a lot of quick fluid moves as well as stomping on the ground. The crowd cheered, impressed.

Wani narrowed her eyes in jealously.

Branch bit his lip. "Let's just call it off. You two would end up-"

But Wani slid onto the stage and started to do a series of free-form moves at the pre-chorus. At one point, she fell on her back and kicked her leg up like how a circus acrobat would do. The crowd went insane at this.

Tresillo gritted his teeth. "You arrogant b-"

"Nuh uh!" teased Wani. "There are kids watching this."

The two leaders glared at each other until the chorus started. The drop didn't stop them as they started pulling off fast and extreme moves, picking up a notch from their traditional dance styles. They did a lot of head turning, knee bending and acrobatic tricks. The crowd went wild as they watched the two battle.

Even Trollex found this entertaining.

"This is getting hot in here!" he said. "How about we have some REAL dance-fighting! Let's go!"

Naturally, Wani and Tresillo agreed to this idea. As the bridge came in, they got close to each other – their noses nearly touching – as they shuffled their feet at lightning speed, trying to step on each other's foot.

When it appeared that no one won yet, Tresillo swung his fist. Wani ducked as his arm flew across her head, brushing her hair. Looking down, she saw an opening.

She kicked her leg upwards and hit Tresillo's groin.

Or at least where it should be.

The Reggaeton Leader's eyes went wide as pie plates as he collapsed onto the floor face-first.

The K-Pop Leader whooped in victory as she danced for the rest of the chorus.

Trollex laughed, enjoying the dance fight. He continued to sing with his companions joining along, playing the DJ booth.

However, Tresillo isn't done.

When the song was about to end, he grabbed Wani's foot and slammed her on the ground. He stood up, out-winning her.

The crowd cheered for the magnificent song and the impressive dance-off for the party.

Trollex let out a happy yell as he raised his trident in the air. "That…was…SO AWESOME! The first time anyone did a great choreography on a Techno song."

He pointed his trident at Tresillo. "I believe this is the champion because he is the one who is standing at the moment."

Wani gasped.

Tresillo smirked. "Who's the silly sausage now, second-place?"

He did a blow kiss before walking away.

In humiliation, Wani screamed in rage and tackled Tresillo from behind, the two rolling offstage.

The crowd can't see the petty fist fight going on, but all you could hear are the punches, crashes and the foreign insults Wani and Tresillo are exchanging to each other.

CRASH!

MEOW!

THWACK!

PFFT!

YONK!

BOING!

Trollex had a wide grin as he watched the ongoing fight.

With an exasperated look, Kelpivixx punched the young king on the shoulder. "Dude. That ain't funny."

Trollex sighed. "OK…OK…sorry…ahem! Now…where were we? Now I remember. I actually have one more song for you guys. Let's head to the retro room now! Can I have the Swing Trolls up here?"

A loud 'ooh' erupted from the crowd as Charleston, Matthew and Timber got onto the stage. The three Swing Trolls agreed to be the representatives of Swing Music and Trollex agreed to help them since they are going to be covering Electro Swing.

"Huzzah, everybody!" said Charleston, lifting her cane up. "Alright! This one is for all the girls in the room!"

She smiled as her titular song 'I'm an Albatraoz' began.

All the lights turned a deep shade of golden brown.

Trollex played on the keyboard, switching the tune to an old-timey piano. Charleston, Matthew and Timber slowly walked across the rectangular stage platform in a formal way as if they are walking across the red carpet. The song slowly builded up and when it froze, Charleston threw her cane upwards.

"What?" said Branch.

"Things are about to go down!" said Poppy.

The music started playing again; complete with piano lines and a little bit of a retro effect to it. Charleston started dancing, matching the style of a ballerina while Timber and Matthew acted as her backup dancers.

Charleston sang about a woman called 'Lory' as an example who she doesn't like. She uses a mouse to describe this woman, implying that she is sneaky and insignificant. She pokes fun at the woman she is referring to for being greedy and loving money, while claiming herself to be an 'albatraoz'; a strong, dominant and aggressive woman.

The electro parts would come in, playing retro sounds, a kicking beat and repeating a few of Charleston's line in a digital tone. Whenever that happened, the whole place turned black with pink lights. Even Charleston and her backup dancers turned black with pink outlines as if they are glowing stars in the night.

The crowd is singing and dancing along to the retro cabaret song, loving the combination of Swing, Classical and Techno music. Even Trollex loved the song that he nearly forgot to play on his DJ booth and danced instead. He tried to do the same arm movements Charleston is doing; she is dancing like a ballerina in a theater way, nearly looking like a fine gentleman.

"I'm an albatraoz! So-!"

The song ended as the beat dropped with Charleston catching her cane – that was flying in the sky THE WHOLE TIME – and held onto her brim. At the last beat, Matthew and Timber lied down with their arms and legs up.

The crowd cheered loudly, totally awed by the new sub-genre of Techno.

"Thank you!" said Charleston, feeling proud of getting to perform in front of all the Trolls. "Thanks for the night!"

Trollex laughed as he flew around in circles, still energetic from the tempo of the song. "Thanks again to the Swing Trolls! Have a good night, everyone!"

With that, the Techno Trolls and the Swing Trolls made their way offstage. The DJ booth is picked up by a few trolls and it is escorted away.

"Whoo!" said Trollex, punching his fists in the air. "That was great! I never knew Swing Music can be cool as well."

Charleston smirked. "You know what we say; we prefer to keep things fancy and retro because that is what makes a 5-star show."

"Well done, guys!" said Poppy. "Now that's a good genre for a party!"

"I got to admit," said Branch. "Like Classical, your music shows a lot of emotions and things to us. It's a sight to see and hear."

Trollex smirked and is about to talk when he saw something behind Poppy.

In place of where Wani and Tresillo are fighting, a big ball of smoke covered over them with fists and feet protruding momentarily before being pulled back. The dust is too much for anyone to see what is going on. All you can hear is Wani shouting and grunting loudly while Tresillo is slurring something.

"Gonna kill you and I'll keep killing you and I will…"

Surrounding the fight are the K-Pop Gang and the Reggaeton Trolls; the 6 girls are chanting 'fight' in hopes of their leaders to win.

On the side, Hickory, Dickory and Chaz watched on, sharing blank looks as if they knew this kind of fight would happen.

Poppy and Charleston watched in stunned silence.

Branch sighed, shaking his head in disapproval.

Trollex is downright excited about this, wiggling his ear fins.

"Should we stop them?" asked Poppy.

"Maybe we can have that going for 5 minutes," said Trollex. "Want to make bets?"

"Ooh!" said Charleston, taking out a few dollar notes. "I like to make one."

Branch shook his head, a little concerned. "No…let's just split them apart before things get out of control."

The Indie Alternative Duo are currently preparing themselves for their performance.

Echo decided to wear a smart casual attire; a dark blue jacket with a light blue shirt, a grey vest, a black bow tie and black tight pants. He changed his hair to be completely dark midnight blue.

Bastille put on a grey shirt, ripped navy blue jeans and a red flannel jacket tied around the waist. He still wears his necklaces and his glove. He changed his long hair to be bluish-grey and the right side has been shaved.

Barb came over. "Alright, guys! You're up right now. I got my Rock Trolls to set up the instruments and they are waiting for you."

"Got that!" said Echo.

Barb observed at the duo's outfits. "Looking sharp and rebellious, huh?"

"Yep," said Bastille. "That's the Indie life for you."

"Let's go, kiddo," said Echo.

The two made their way out of the changing room, saying 'farewell' to Barb. They walked across a long hallway where a few Trolls gave them some words of encouragement.

"First time performing together," said Bastille. "I hope that it's fun tonight."

Echo nodded, not saying a word.

"For tonight, I like to make up to you…as an apology for upsetting you before."

Echo had a thoughtful look before swallowing. "I know…I already forgave you…let's just have a great time here."

They finally got to the stage where a few Rock Trolls are testing out the instruments which included guitars, basses and keyboards. Riff is at the drums, tapping the kick drum at the moment.

Poppy is also at the stage as well.

"Hey there, guys!" said Poppy.

"Hi Poppy," said Bastille with a warm smile.

Echo nodded politely.

"I got to tell you," said Poppy. "I never get to hear how Indie music is like. Can you tell me how it is?"

"As you probably already know," said Bastille. "It's like Pop and Rock, but it has a primitive and simplistic approach to music. Normally, our music has a melodic, lighthearted sound and has cues from punk. Some of our songs are dark and are anguish, but they are melodic and less noisy than Rock."

The Pop Queen took the time to absorb in this explanation. "I see."

"You'll be surprised of what we do," said Echo with a small smirk.

"Anyone who heard King Trollex's sick beats will have a hard time falling asleep!" shouted a voice from the speakers. "The Techno Trolls DO know how to drop the beat. I'm not going to forget their music! Right now, here's Bastille and Echo who will bring in their Indie and Alternative music!"

"It's about time," said Echo.

"Alright!" said Poppy. "Good luck, guys!"

She made her way offstage, but not before giving Bastille a kiss on the cheek.

When Poppy is out of sight, Bastille frowned and wiped the kiss mark off his cheek.

He turned his head to Branch who is watching and spun his finger around his ear as a sign that Poppy is 'cuckoo-crazy'.

Branch grinned sheepishly.

"You know the plan?" said Echo as he stood in front of a microphone stand, taking the lead.

Bastille nodded and picked up a guitar nearby.

As the curtains unfolded, the place went dark and everybody was silent for a while.

Their first song 'Human' began with the drums playing, a crash-like sound and Bastille playing a low chord on his guitar. Echo adjusted himself as he heard the familiar words of the song.

The lights turned a dark shade of blue.

Echo started to sing the first verse, using a gruff and dulcet voice. Bastille joined along as the backing vocals, his young voice in the background. Echo expressed the angst of the inability of people to be perfect or even fix many of the 'real problems' in life. He expressed the difficult things they all feel but find hard to express: weaknesses, ignorance, guilt, failures, hypocrisy and troubles.

Through the repeated words 'I'm only human after all', the Indie Trolls are delivering a powerful and despairing lamentation that acknowledges both problems and the limited ability to resolve them. While the song isn't positive and slightly dark, it has an instant impact, honest lyrics and a throwback to the Trolls' troubled past.

However, many find the song catchy, heart-filling and powerful. They started singing along or clapped their hands to the soulful, alternative song. Some of the Country Trolls loved the truthful message Echo and Bastille were singing.

The song finished with Echo's voice and the piano fading in the air.

"Don't put your blame on me…"

The crowd cheered, liking the song.

Echo timidly waved his hand, mouthing 'thank you'.

"Thank you, everyone," said Bastille calmly. "Thank you."

The two Indie Trolls stood side by side.

"What a cracker of the night," said Bastille. "Crikey, things have been amazing here at this party."

"Let's bring back some party moods here," said Echo. "Here we go."

All the lights pointed at the duo, turning silver and white.

They started their next song. As 'Wherever I Go' began, Bastille and Echo kept switching lead vocals, taking turns to sing. A piano played behind them, giving off a suspenseful tone to the song. The first verse showed the song's meaning; not able to find a love to match one that they once had, but they become obsess when they get together with their love interest.

When the second chorus kicked in, the drums started playing and Bastille strummed his guitar. The song became lively and it built up before the third chorus began immediately. The song suddenly became vibrant as more instruments played, featuring grand piano lines and a funk-driven rhythm, creating an upbeat melody.

Everyone in the crowd started dancing, loving the fresh and organic song. It showed an interesting and sparkling side of Indie Alternative Music, and everybody is on their feet. They loved the deep message along with its upbeat melody.

When the song finished, the crowd cheered, louder than before.

"Alright!" said Bastille. "Up to the next level, huh?"

"A good song, eh?" said Echo. "We just got started. Now, we have the dessert for you and it will be sweet."

He took the guitar from Bastille. "Do your best, OK?"

Bastille nodded and took over the lead. "This is our last song for you. I want everyone to stomp your feet and clap your hands."

He smiled and took a deep breath.

The lights around him turned many shades of turquoise.

He closed his eyes before opening them when the song started.

"Yeah you!"

'Somebody to You' set forth with a big, kick-drum stomp, acoustic guitar-guitar strumming and simple-minded tunes. Bastille used his young voice to bring in the youthfulness of Indie Music. He sang about how he used to want to live tough, but his love interest caught his eyes, catching his attention.

The pumping guitars and drums melody bring in the theme about young love; disregarding all the things other people chase after, they focus on the person they love. Bastille sang that he wants to be 'somebody to you' instead of living as a lone 'billionaire'. The song is punchy and full of energy. It got everyone to be clapping their hands and stomping their feet.

After the chorus, Bastille slowly pointed his arm behind him.

Charleston returned to the stage – her outfit now in shades of white, grey, blue and black to fit the 'Indie' colors – and sang the second verse. The whole crowd went insane at her surprising appearance and her killer vocals to the song. She brought in the freshness to mask any lack of natural ability.

The two teens sang together, making an epic duet. The song is an empowering one that it got everybody to join in. Riff, Echo and the few Rock Trolls playing the instruments, bobbed their heads up and down to the tempo of the song.

"Yeah you!"

The song finally ended, receiving a round of applause from the audience.

Echo raised his guitar in the air.

"Thank you, everyone!" shouted Bastille. "Thank you! Hope you enjoy this bloody ride!"

The crowd cheered as Bastille, Echo and Charleston made their way off the stage.

"Wowee!" said Poppy as she approached Bastille and Echo. "You guys were amazing out there! No wonder why your music sounds like Pop Music."

"I told you," said Branch. "The Indie Trolls are the ones who know a lot about the world. They can pull off a show for everyone to love and relate to."

"Remember that, kids," said Echo with a smirk as he walked off.

Bastille smiled and crossed his arms. "Hey, Queen Poppy. I…eh…believe that I owe you an apology."

Poppy understood what he meant. "That's fine…but I'm kind of the one who started this whole…"

"I know…"

"It's funny you know; it's been a month ever since the world tour and everyone is going along fine."

"Time flies by pretty quickly."

"I hope that no one will freak out when Rock plays," said Branch. "The Rock Trolls already helped us out, so they deserve a time to shine."

Barb is the Queen of Rock.

A leader who never stood her guard down.

One who can brave through a war.

However, right now, she feels…a little down.

During her world tour, she thought that it would be a good idea to have everyone to look the same and act the same to be one nation. She thought that everyone is too different to get along. The reason why she thought of trying to 'reunite' all the Trolls was that she could feel proud of herself. Being a good queen is everything to her, but her loneliness made it feel like it was not enough.

From the record keepings and books she read, she knew about the Pop Trolls' selfishness in the past and she hated them for that. However, she didn't realize that she was doing the exact same actions they did, but worse. She destroyed town and forced people into cages, taking them to Volcano Rock City where she could turn them all into Rock Zombies.

During that time, Poppy pointed out to Barb for not being a good queen since she didn't care to listen to others. As the Queen of Rock, all the Rock Trolls were loyal to Barb, doing whatever she wanted them to do. It was a little hurtful how they treated their queen not like an actual person, but she was used to it. Barb was completely shocked when Poppy told her that message.

Even King Trollex snapped at Barb, pointing out that her way of getting all the Trolls together was just hurtful and it caused a lot of pain and suffering. He told her off for not being better than Poppy and that nobody deserved to be attacked by Rock. He even pointed that if Barb just asked politely, then the other tribes would have agreed to be one nation in the first place.

And her plan was all for nothing and only caused near unhappiness.

When the strings were destroyed and everyone made music on their own, Barb experienced for the first time all the Trolls being one nation. She nearly fell into depression because she believed that she should have seen how easy it is to get along with each other despite differences. It made her think that she failed as a good queen.

Right now, everyone has gotten along with each other and they all forgive Barb for the damage she did. Still, she felt guilty about the pain she put everyone through. Even if everyone accepted Rock and Bastille and Poppy became her friends, Barb isn't sure how long this peaceful relationship can last for.

That is what she is fearful off.

To go through the same things she did as a lonely queen.

At the moment, she is getting prepared for her performance.

She would have brought along her stage outfit, but deemed it to be looking a little odd. She decided to put on a white leather jacket, a black top, golden necklaces with rivets and black ripped jeans. She replaced her bracelets with spiky studded ones.

She fiddled with her golden guitar pick, anxious about her performance.

"Hey, Barb."

Barb looked up to see Carol with a bored look.

"Just chill, dude," the blue Rock Troll said. "It's just a musical concert like back at Volcano Rock City."

Barb nodded. "I know…I know…"

Biggie appeared from the door. "I need you guys on stage right now. It's about to start."

"Alright!" said Sid Fret. "Let's do this!"

"Time to rock," said Carol.

Barb took in a deep breath as she stood up.

"Can't show any weakness," she said to herself before putting on a brave face. "Time to rock."

The main Rock trio got out from their changing room and made their way to the stage. They passed by King Thrash who is absently staring at nothing. His smile grew wider when he saw Barb.

"Hi there, Barbara," said Thrash. "I heard that you're up now."

Barb smiled and bent down in front of her father. "Yeah. It's now time for me to go up."

Thrash smiled sympathetically. "It's OK to be scared, Barbara."

"What?" said Barb. "I'm not scared. What gave you that idea?"

"You look worried."

"Maybe a little…but I have been fine ever since we arrived here."

"Have a good time tonight. Enjoy this night and make the best out of it. Everyone has forgiven you and I'm sure that everyone will love your music as much as you like the other genres. Trust your friends for this once, OK?"

Barb nodded. She felt a little flattered by her father's words – like how she used to look up to him the most when younger – and she IS trying her best to make up for the mistakes she did. She gave her best shot and it is time for her to show how Rock Music is one of a kind to all.

"Thank you, Dad," said Barb.

With that, she made her way to the stage with King Thrash following behind her. They heard a voice blasting through the speakers, making the last announcement.

"Considering how the Indie Duo know their roots around the world, they did manage to set this place on fire. What a set! Whatever songs they will be making next will be insane! And now, here is the final tribe; the Rock Trolls! Give it up for Queen Barb!"

A roar of applause could be heard and there is a repetitive tune going on. It sounded like clapping hands and the words 'put your hands up' repeated all over.

"It's time," said Barb.

As she made her way to the stage, she bumped into a few leaders who were watching her.

"Good luck, Queen Barb," said Queen Essence.

"Do you best," said Trollzart.

Delta came close to Barb. "There's a lot of people out there. You're sure you can handle this."

Barb smirked, shrugging. "I'm sure that I can handle anything."

Delta smiled. "Alright then. Show us what you got."

Barb turned around a corner to see King Trollex trying out one of the black guitars.

"Ah!" he said, noticing her. "Sorry. Does this belong to you?"

"Nah," said Barb. "I'm not going to use a guitar for most of the night. I'm just going to sing my heart out there."

"I'm curious; why don't these guitars shoot out that white lightning? Where are your electric-charged guitar weapons?"

Barb scratched her ear. "Eh…wait…oh…now I remember. They got blown up in the main tour bus."

Trollex nodded. "That makes sense."

Barb grinned and made her way onto the stage. She grabbed a nearby microphone as she greeted her fellow Rock Trolls who were already on their instruments.

"What's up, everybody?" she said. "You're all ready to rock this show?"

All the Rock Trolls yelled in response, raising their fists up in the style of horns.

"You're ready, Barb?" asked Riff.

Barb nodded. "Alright! Let's go!"

Even with the curtains closed, they wanted to make an epic opening. Riff started banging his drums while a few Rock Trolls vocalized as if paying a tribute to an army going to war.

"Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oohohh!"

Barb held up a lit torch while a few Rock dancers surrounded her, lifting her slightly up like a statue. The fiery glow of the torch was enough for everyone to see through the curtains.

All the lights turned bright white.

As Barb started the first verse of 'My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Them Up)', the curtains dropped, letting the crowd see the Rock Trolls. Barb waved the torch around, letting the flame on it fly through the air. The dancers around her started making intimidating and tough movements before going apart and rolled on the floor as if they were Olympic competitors.

The song is a big, stomp-along, metal anthem that is muscular in scope and has a slight malicious, voyeuristic undertone. Barb sang loudly about returning to music with a brand new state, burning up her past failures. She described in both vocals and body language of burning the past, razing it and starting a fresh future. The dancers did a lot of warrior moves, showing that they are ones who shouldn't be messed with.

The crowd started jumping whenever the chorus kicked in. They all cheered and sang along as they heard the wicked guitars, the beating drums and the epic vocals of the Rock Trolls. Even though this song is hard rock, it brings a sense of a new identity and a new change of face to music. Barb got everyone to join by pointing her microphone to vocalize at some parts while encouraging them to clap their hands at the bridge.

"Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oohohh!"

All the Trolls cheered as the song came to an end.

"I love you, guys!" shouted Barb, raising her fist in the air in the style of horns.

The crowd roared louder at her voice.

"How are you guys doing tonight? An awesome concert so far; we have Classical, Pop, Funk, Country, Reggaeton, K-Pop, Techno and Indie. I got to admit; I think I like the Country Trolls' performance better. Their guitars nearly sound like Rock."

A few Country Trolls whooped at this, swinging their hats around.

"Who's ready to have the best night of their lives? Who's with me?"

The crowd cheered again.

"Let's do this Rock 'N' Roll!" sang Barb, starting the next song.

All the lights turned fire orange.

The Rock Trolls played their next song which is upbeat and punk, having a rocking beat, a stomp-clap loop and a carp diem attitude. Barb sang about a boisterous declaration of rebellion over bouncy, cheerleader-esque stomps. She brought out some rebellious charm that feels shouty and bratty; a suitable rock anthem.

Whenever the chorus started, the music became a fistful of stadium-rock flavor with electric guitar power chords, a thundering full drum kit, strategically placed gang vocals and overhead hand claps. Barb stomped her feet on the ground as she hopped towards each of her Rock Trolls. She even did some interaction with some of the dancers, placing her attention on them.

Everyone started singing along, loving to declare that they are 'still rock 'n' roll'. Their voices are picked up Barb who kept pointing her microphone at them at times. The whole song is jaw-dropping, pretty spectacular and bombastic.

Above the cheeky lyrics, the glossy tone of the song and its catchy melody, there is an epic guitar solo. One of the Rock Trolls stood beside Barb and started belting out, making a ripping guitar riff. He did this again at the ending where Barb dropped her left arm and raised her right arm up, pointing a finger to the sky.

The crowd cheered loudly, raising their hands in the air.

"Phew!" said Barb as she bent down to take some breaths. "I'm nearly tired now! Doing this takes up a lot of energy."

She stretched her arms around.

"OK…this is our last one for tonight. It's has a similar message, but I think this song is great for everyone; from age to gender to tradition. Let's rock!"

Riff grinned and tapped his drumsticks together. "1, 2, 3, 4!"

As the lights turned crimson red, they started their next song which is 'Now'. Barb sang about a struggle going on – all this pain, bitterness and a violent cycle that keeps going – but people have to stop the cycle and move forward to take control of whatever is next. Even if it's not always clear what that is. Even if it is a hard or not. Even if it is something someone is comfortable with or not.

When the chorus kicked in, all the guitarists played a sick but silvery chord. Riff banged the drums as well as using his head, creating a series of mighty beats. Barb sang about wanting the future already to seize a new opportunity, wanting something good to claim.

The entire song got everyone singing and dancing along, believing that they can lose battles but come back and win full on wars. They can rise from the ashes. They can make music with each other. They don't need the strings anymore. The only thing that can do is to keep moving forward with the people around them. Barb let everyone join in the song, forming up an army of a million people.

The performance was so epic and screamed out freedom since by the time the song finished, the crowd yelled loudly, wanting more.

Barb stopped spinning around and looked through the crowd. Everybody was cheering her name. All the Trolls. She spotted all the Rock Trolls chanting her name. Seeing this, she thought that she would have the painful feeling in her stomach again, but…she felt…gratitude.

She is grateful that everybody loved her music.

All because she learnt to change.

They are all happy together, getting along with each other.

It warmed her heart.

She is lost in her contentment that she didn't hear Poppy coming onto the stage.

"Give Barb another round of applause here!" said the Pop Queen. "She ruled the stage alright!"

Poppy turned to see that Barb was smiling, unaware of the tears forming in her eyes.

"Huh?" said Poppy. "Are you OK, Barb? You look a little teary."

Barb snapped out from her daydream. "What? Oh…sorry. Just got a little emotional."

She wiped a single tear off her cheek, chuckling a little. She noticed that Poppy got changed into her tame Rock outfit, but her hair has many rainbow streaks and she replaced the black shirt with a rainbow shirt.

"You look rocky," said Barb.

"So do you!" said Poppy.

"Alright then! The girl group is finally here for one last song! We are entering the Punk Power!"

Many of the Trolls went 'ooh!' at the sound of this.

"Shall we?" asked Poppy, holding up a microphone.

"Who's ready to rock?" shouted Barb.

With that, they started their new Pop-Rock song 'Kings & Queens'. During the past month, they were trying to decide on how the lyrics were supposed to be and they kept changing it until they felt that it sounds super good. However, nothing is going to be perfect, but when they do it together, then the song will come out OK.

They sang about women's empowerment, stating how it would be a better place if queens ruled the world: a subtle tribute to the power of women and a call to action for men to support the queens in their life. They started with a pulsing verse and an electronic sound to their music. They referenced a lot of royalty queens and fantasy stories, linking them to women today.

There are dramatic hook peppered with regal synths as the song built up. Poppy's and Barb's voices blended with each other to create a powerful duo. Sometimes, they would stand next to Carol to form a trio, though the female Rock Troll didn't appear to notice.

Before the bridge, there is a strong electric guitar solo, highlighting the queen's ability to rule the world. There is another guitar solo during the outro along with Poppy and Barb vocalizing, bringing a heaven-like force to the party.

When the song finished, everybody cheered at their two young queens.

Poppy raised Barb's hand up.

The crowd cheered louder.

"So?" said Poppy. "Do we make a great team?"

Barb smiled. "Yeah…this…this feels awesome! Like a rocking girl band!"

"Alright!" said Poppy, turning to the crowd. "Thank you! Thank you all for coming tonight. I hope that you enjoyed the concert as much as we do!"

She turned to leave, but Barb grabbed her by the shoulder.

"Hold on!" she said. "We're not done yet. We got one more song."

"One more song?" said Poppy. "I thought that-"

"We planned this as a surprise for you," said Barb as she picked up an electric guitar. "I hope you like this!"

The crowd cheered again.

Poppy noticed Delta coming from behind with an acoustic guitar. The Country Sheriff turned the tuners around before adjusting them to the right position. She strummed the strings as all the lights gradually turned off.

In the middle of the stage is Poppy who was trying to figure what this is all about. A lone white spotlight appeared behind her.

It is Branch who quickly put back on his casual outfit. He started singing 'California King Bed'; a R&B power ballad with an acoustic guitar, soft piano keys and intimate melancholy. The song talks about the 'breaking-up' of a relationship where he feels as though she's been growing apart from her lover and there's an emotional disconnect.

When the chorus started, Barb started playing her rock guitar and Riff played his drums, building a massive power ballad. Branch sang about how he could be so physically close to a woman yet so emotionally distant. He claimed that he loved his lover, but she cannot commit.

Poppy felt a little sad.

Branch is obviously referring to her.

His lover.

It is as if he is singing this song to her after their argument one month ago.

However, Branch showed sympathy to her as he sang. The crowd is enjoying the song, swaying their arms in a lullaby way as if they are attending church.

Poppy found herself to love the innocuous soft song. Even though it is a down-tempo song, it's still refreshing, a mix of joy and sadness and so surreal.

"My California Queen…" sang Branch as he pointed his arm to Poppy.

Before he could continue onto the second verse, Poppy started to sing along.

He is taken back by surprise, but he let Poppy sing, hearing her beautiful voice. She is singing the same message he is bringing up and it appeared that she understood him.

She listened to him.

She feels the same way he does.

As soon as the second chorus came in, they came together and looked at each other's eyes, lost in a trance. The guitarist and drummer played along, making a wicked but well-delivered and touching song. They had the skills to deliver the irresistible heartbreak in the song.

When Barb started her guitar solos, she didn't go out in her way to belt out her part. She chose to watch Poppy and Branch as they held hands with each other, dancing together slowly. They blissfully walked across the stage together, feeling a calm melancholy through them. They felt happy to be together again despite the sad song, losing all doubts, guilt and mourns.

The song they sang tells of how they used to be in the past; they were not literally far apart, but there was an emotional disconnection between them as they grew apart due to their differences. They should have realized it but ignored it, hoping that things could work out. Branch would wish that he could win Poppy's heart and hoped that she would open up to her because he doesn't want to lose her.

Right now, they understand each other to form a deep level. They expressed their feelings to each other. Everything around them faded away, including the rock guitars that played in the background. They sang in their own nostalgic world, listening to each other.

"My California King…" sang Poppy, singing the last line.

Barb held onto the last note before immediately stopping.

Silence was the only thing everyone can hear after that.

Many of the trolls weren't sure how to react to this bittersweet song.

However, one Trolls started to clap.

This followed by another clap.

And then another.

Soon, everyone started to cheer and clap for Poppy and Branch.

The two Pop Trolls stared at each other

Poppy grinned.

Branch smiled.

To his surprise, Poppy slowly neared towards him, their faces nearly touching.

She then placed her lips on his lips.

Branch's eyes widened in surprise as he felt explosion setting off in his mind. It felt like a thousand lights brightened up his mind, taking away all of his problems.

Poppy closed her eyes, feeling her strong love for Branch.

In return, Branch closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around Poppy in a warm embrace.

"I ship it," said Barb with a smirk.

"They sure are the best couple out there," said Delta.

Suki squealed. "Called it first!"

"You did?" asked Biggie and Cooper.

"Looks like there is a happily ever after for them," said Trollzart.

"Things seem to be going fine for them now," said Trollex, sharing a high-five with the Classical Conductor.

"Do you think that they will be together?" asked Charleston worriedly to Bastille. "I'm not sure how long this will last."

"They can sort things out," reassured Bastille. "After all, they got each other's back."

King Quincy, Queen Essence and King Peppy watched on, proud of the two Pop Trolls for making up and expressing their feelings for each other.

Branch and Poppy continued with the kiss, leaving everything else behind them.

The party continued on with the Snack Pack being the hosts.

Poppy and Branch have one last announcement they like to make with the leaders.

"Seriously?" said Barb. She is surprised like the rest of the leaders. "You're doing this on your own?"

"Yeah," said Poppy. "There are still some smaller tribes of Trolls out there we haven't seem yet. The bounty hunters are planning to tell their kind about all of this, but there is a chance that we don't know what other things are out there. The only thing we know is that the world is never-ending and we haven't really covered it all."

"I don't know about you," said Bastille. "But there aren't…many Trolls that are friendly like us."

"We still don't know what's actually out there," said Charleston.

"The world is still a harsh place you know," pointed out Echo.

Poppy nodded. "I know…but I'm choosing to go along on this one. I want to see the place for myself and try to accept their traditions. We can't go about as one big group as it might scare the other tribes away. I feel like…as a troll – not a queen – should try out something new. And I don't want to risk my friends for this."

Branch placed a hand onto Poppy's shoulder. "You know that you're not going to be alone and that's why I'm choosing to come along with you. I got your back if we are in danger."

The leaders glanced at each other, a little worried about Poppy's idea of going to spread the news about their reunited nation to the remaining small tribes. However, a few of them accepted the idea, knowing that Poppy is going to listen to others.

"OK then," said Queen Essence. "Please be safe, dear."

"You know that we aren't complete without you," said King Quincy.

"I know," said Poppy.

"You are one strong girl," said Delta Dawn. "I nearly doubted you for a minute, but you finally have the strength to go around the big world. Time has flown pretty quickly and all of this has been going on for a month or 337 pages. But look, Poppy: you have to come back here someday, alright?"

"We're not sure when we are coming back," said Branch. "That's an indefinite answer. But we promise to come back."

"You know that you guys are our home," said Poppy.

She received a lot of grateful smiles from everyone.

She looked at Branch.

He looked at her.

They both nodded.

They made their way to a beetle vehicle Barb designed for them and are about to get on when they turned around one last time.

"Good luck on your next mission, Queen Poppy," said Trollzart.

"Don't slack on this one," said Prince D.

"Make sure to send us a message, OK?" said King Trollex.

Queen Barb slowly went close to Poppy. She looked a little hesitant, but then pulled the Pop Queen in a hug.

"Thank you for being my friend," said Barb, trying not to cry. "Good luck out there."

Poppy happily returned the embrace, sniffing a little. "Thank you…Barb."

The two let go.

Poppy grinned as she and Branch got onto the vehicle.

"You're all prepared," asked Poppy.

Branch smirked. "I have my weapons with me."

"Very funny."

Poppy started up the engine and flew the vehicle to the sky. Branch quickly held onto her, trying to not fall off. They flew through the air, feeling the wind brushing their faces and hair as they ascended to the night sky. They looked back one last time to see the leaders waving at them.

"Take care, Poppy and Branch!" called Charleston.

Branch waved back.

Poppy smiled as she saw the glow of the large moon rising from the horizon. This time, she will reunite all the Trolls by listening to them, returning all of them to its glory and give them the thing everyone really need.

"No troll left behind," she thought to herself.

…

However, Poppy forgot about ONE thing.

Back at the party, everybody is having fun. However, they all stopped when they heard loud, nearly booming voices.

SNAP!

"ARGH! What was that?!"

"Seems to be a miniature-sized trap. Must be from Branch."

King Gristle and Bridget pushed their way through the bushes…to find the paused party with all the Trolls looking at them.

The Pop Trolls are in genuine surprise to see the Bergan Royals to be back.

The other tribes just stood in shock and noticeable fear.

"Oh," said Biggie sheepishly. "We forgotten to tell you all about them, huh?"

At this, Barb and the other leaders arrived back.

"Hey guys," said Barb. "I was wondering if…"

She trailed off when she saw the two Bergans.

"Wait a minute," said Barb. "Are you…Bridget and Gristle? Of the Bergans? The ones Poppy mentioned to us."

Bridget chuckled sweetly. "Well…we are here."

The Pop Trolls started to chatter while the other Trolls murmured in confusion.

"Hold on," said Gristle, looking around. "Where is Poppy?"

"Oh," said Cooper. "She and Branch just left after the main event is over."

"On a private world tour called their honeymoon," said Suki.

"So…" said Bridget. "They're already gone?"

Trollex shrugged casually. "Yeah. Pretty obvious."

Bridget blinked, a little dumbfounded. "Oh Grissy. I think that we were late to the party."

"Oh balls!" exclaimed Gristle in frustration.

"Grissy!"

"But who is going to taste my cheese balls, babe?"

The End

AN: It was fun writing the epilogue chapter. It's also the hardest of all. Because of the songs I chosen, I had to look up on mostly Wikipedia and Genius Lyrics to give me ideas on how the songs sound like to others. For some of the genres (especially Funk, Country and Rock), I didn't have the motivation to find any songs that are mainly contributed to their genres. I know that I was lazy in just choosing Pop Songs, but I was in a rush and I'm sorry. I want to finish this.

And oh, some of the outfits the performers were wearing are based on the characters from the Just Dance game series.

Wani and Tresillo fighting over a hat AND a cape is probably the best scene to write. This idea came from the video 'SMG4: Mario's Late!'. It's kind of funny.

And there we have it. Through all the hard work and all the ideas I had, I can say that my version of Trolls World Tour can finally come to an end. This is now complete!

I want to thank all of you wonderful readers for taking your time to read this story and this is my most successful of all.

For now, I currently don't have any plans for a sequel or a follow-up, but I don't want to leave my Trolls universe behind yet. I had a great time writing these fun-loving characters (especially King Trollex, Queen Barb, Delta Dawn and the K-Pop Gang) and your love and comments gave me the courage I need to pull this story together. I might come up with something in mind...maybe I will write a sequel that includes Queen Barb and King Trollex along with regarding what happened to Charleston's parents...hmm...or maybe a Trolls crossover with an upcoming story I'm planning...if that upcoming story becomes successful...

HOWEVER, I'm not done yet! Stick around everyone because in two days, I will be releasing my next and BIGGEST story ever. Make sure to check that out!

Until next time, stay safe, be nice, listen to others, love music, may God be with you and never let anyone change who you are.

TurquoiseTriangle.

See you all on the first of July!
