~Wednesday~

Barb Went Around Trollstopia To Look For Her Dad Anywhere.

Thrash Was Standing On Top Of A Mushroom, Posing.

Barb Called Out.
"HEY DAD! YOU WANNA-"

A Crowd Of Trolls Came Around The Mushroom And Took Pictures Of Thrash.

Barb's Ears Went Down.
"Oh.."

Cooper Came By.
"Tsk Tsk Tsk, Tough Love"

"-.-"
Barb Glared Up At Cooper.

~~~

~Thursday~

Barb Ran Down To The Lagoon With Her Surfboard.
"YOOO DAD! LET'S-...Uhhh-"

Thrash Was Busy On A Boat Yacht, Partying With A Bunch Of Trolls.

"Oh -.-"
Barb Snapped In Half Her Surfboard.

Cooper Came By Again.
"Tsk Tsk Tsk, Tough Love"

~~~

~Friday~

Barb Sighed, Walking Down To The Cave Club.
"I Don't Even Know Why I'm Trying....Heyyy Dad, Wanna-"

Thrash Was Too Busy Again, Dancing On A Pole In Fishnets And A Speedo.

"OH THRASHHH~ 😍"
The Girls Fangirl.

"......We Must Take Notes"
Dickory Said.

Dickory And Other Men Trolls Began Taking Notes Of Thrash's Coolness. 🗒

Barb Formed Fist And Groaned.
"UgggggggGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!"

Cooper Came By Once Again.
"Tsk Tsk Tsk, Tough- DOOF"

Barb Punched Cooper Away Before Cooper Could Finish.

~Saturday~

Under A Tree, Barb Sat By Herself, Leaning Against The Tree.

Barb Sighed And Looked Into The Ground, Missing Her Dad's Attention.

Val, In The Flower Mobile Car, Came Zooming By And Parked.

Barb Looked Up.
"Val?"

Val Hopped Out.
"WHOO! Girl You Will Not Believe How Fun It Is Riding This Sick Car All Around And Wrecking Things!"

"Oh Really?"
Barb Said.

"Uh Huh! I Wrecked So Many Things That Wreck-It-Ralph Would Be So Proud!"
Val Sat Next To Her.

"Well At Least You're Having A Good Time.....Me Not So Much"
Barb Hugged Her Knees.

"Is This Cause Of Your Dad Being All Young And Lit Now?"
Val Questioned.

Barb Looked Up At Val Witu Cutesy Sad Eyes.
"🥺"

"Cmonnnn Dude. Shouldn't You Be Happy He's Able To Do Stuff? I Thought You Wanted This"
Val Said.

"Yeah I Do, Wanted To Be Able To DO Stuff With Him. Not Be Away From Him! I Didn't Know He'd End Up Being The Center Of Attention"
Barb Said.

"Well What Did You Want Out Of This?"
Val Asked.

"I Wanted To....Ya Know....Hang Out With My Dad Like When I Was Little. When He Was Actually Able To Do Things. I Wanted To Experience That Again.."
Barb Frowned And Hugged Her Knees Tightly.

Val Patted Barb's Shoulder.
"Dawww"

"But Instead...He Can Only Do The Littlest Of Things...And Now, He Doesn't Want The Littlest To Do With Me Now That He's Back Young"
Barb Said.

"Reminds Me Of My Great Great Grandpa Rocker Joey. He Worn His Tights Way TOOOO Tight And It Squeezed And Popped Off He Area. Now He's Bloated"
Val Shrugged.

Barb Raised Her Eyebrow At That.
"......Riiiiighttttt"

Barb Fiddled Her Finger In The Grass.
"I Just Miss My Dad Now....The Old Dad.."

The More Barb Thought Of Missing Her Old Dad, A Little Tear Formed In Her Eye.

Val Looked Closely And Noticed.
"Whoaaaaa Girl, Are You Crying?"

Barb Sniffed And Quickly Wiped Her Tear.
"What? No! Shut Up-"

Val Gave Barb The "Seriously" Look.

Barb Glanced At Her.
"Fineeeee.....Mind Starting A Song For Me?"

Val Took Out Her Guitar.
"Cannnn Do"

Val Began To Play A Slow Riff Melody On Her Guitar.

Barb Sang To The Melody.
🎸 The smell of your ointment
lingers on my nose..🎸

"Ew-"
Val Reacted.

🎸 You're probably on your
way back to your popularity..🎸

🎸 I need some shelter
of my own protection..🎸

🎸 Be with myself
and center..🎸

🎸 Clarity, peace,
& serenity..🎸

Val Joined In And Sang Along With Barb.

🎸  I hope you know,
I hope you knowwww 🎸

🎸 That this has nothing
to do with you- 🎸

🎸 It's personal,
myself and IIIII..🎸

🎸 We got some straightening
out to doooo 🎸

Barb's Tears Came Down More, As A Vision Of Young Thrash And Baby Barb Was Imagined.

🎸 And I'm gonna miss you
like a child misses their blanket 🎸

🎸 But I've got to get
a move on with my life..🎸

🎸 It's time to be
a big girl noooow..🎸

🎸 And big girls
don't cryyy..🎸

Barb Wiped Her Tears And Held Out The Book Of Myths.

"Stupid- UGHHH!"
Barb Threw The Book Away.

The Book Bounced Off A Random Trampoline And Flew Back At Val.

"Awe Crap- OOF!"
Val Got Hit With The Book.

Val Rubbed Her Head.
"Ah....Darn Son Of A-"

The Book Was Open On Her Lap, On The Page Of The Fountain Of Youth.

Val Picked Up The Book And Read It.
"Heyyyy, I Think I Just Got A Brain Blast!"

"Please Don't- I Don't Wanna Have To Call You Val Neutron"
Barb Said.

"No No Listen! The Book Says That Whomever Gets Effected With The Fountain Of Youth And Prefers To Change Back To The Current Age, They Must Be Reverted Back Through Emotional Thoughts From A Loved One"
Val Read.

Barb Blinked.
"....Okay You Lost Me At The Book Says-"

"I'm No Nerd Like Bumbo Timberlake, But I Think This Means If You Remind Your Dad About A Emotional Memory, He Might Change Back To His Old Age"
Val Explained.

"Okaaaay, Sounds Like A Reasonable Solution- But There's No Way To Get To Him When His Attention's Being Stolen 24/7"
Barb Said.

Riff Ran By With A Flyer.
"GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS! DID YOU SEE THIS NEW TOTALLY NOT A NEW PLOT LINE FLYER?"

Barb Stood Up To Snatch The Flyer And Read It.

"He Edited My FLYERS?!?! UGHHH DADDDD!"
Barb Slammed The Flyer Back In Riff's Face.

"Ow-"

"More Convinced Now?"
Val Stood Up.

Barb Sighed.
"Alright, We're Gonna Have To Go To His So Called fAthEr cOncErT Tonight, And Sabotage"

"AWWWWWE YEAAAHHH! SABOTAGE IT LIKE IT'S HOT!🤘"
Val Shook What Her Mama Gave Her.

"Buttttt, We're Gonna Need Some Help"
Barb Said.

"Okay, But From Who?"
Val Questioned.

Both Girls Thought And Smirked, Turning Their Heads Towards Riff.

Riff Slowly Waved At Them.
"Heh Heh Heh.....oh noes..."

Thrash Rose His Pick, About To Play.

"Oh Really?"
A Voice Said.

Val Then Unplugged Thrash's Guitar From The Amplifier Backstage.

And Then Rolled Over To The Lights Switch, To Shut Off The Stage Lights.

Everyone Murmured In Confusion.

Thrash Tapped His Guitar.
"Heyyyy! My Guitar! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!?!"

A Spotlight Shined On Barb On Stage.

Barb Reminded.

"STOP STOP STOP!"
Thrash Backed Away.

"REMEMBER WHEN I WAS 18 AND YOU PRONOUNCED ME QUEEN!?"
Barb Reminded.

Thrash Slowly Began To Glow And Rise Up In The Air.

Thrash Covered His Ears.
"ENOUGH ENOUGH!"

"REMEMBER WHEN I WAS ONLY 1 YEARS OLD, AND FIRST SAID I LOVE YOU DADDY!"
Barb Shouted Out Loud.

"ARGHHHHHAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!!!"
Thrash Screamed Out Loud As The More He Glowed.

Suddenly, Thrash Began To Age Back Into His Current Old State.

"IT'S WORKING!"
Barb Said.

Thrash Morphed Back Into Fully Elderly And Stiff In The Air.

"Wh...Whaaaa...?"
Thrash Looked Around Then Fell Down.

"Aaaaaaaaa....!!"
Thrash Tried To Scream.

Riff And Val Ran Around The Stage.
"I GOT HIM! I GOT HIM! I GOT HIM!"
