Life of Aggie
The song intro doesn't belong to me. Have fun reading this new chapter.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro
Queen Poppy: You can do it solo
Branch: But then you'd be all by yourself
Synth: Yo! So it'd be more fun to share this one with someone else!
Rhythm & Blues: Together we will soar across the sky and beyond!
Holly Darling: So turn up your voice!
Val Thundershock: Stand up and sing along!
All Trolls: All different voices, our melody's ringin'
We're living in harmony! Yeah, we're livin' in harmony!
Our song is much stronger with every Troll singin'
We're livin' in harmony!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Symphonyville, Aggie was helping Trollzart and the Classical Trolls to clean a herd of Eighth Goats. They've been washing, scrubbing, polishing and drying them all day.
The Classical Trolls and Aggie came together to see their clean animals. They are all sparkly clean
Phew! Thank you for helping me get the Eighth Goats so fresh and clean, Aggie," Trollzart wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"No problem. Happy to do it, Papa Trollzart," Aggie smiled.
You probably can't wait to get back to TrollsTopia and take your own bath, huh?" the Conductor suggested.
Rainbow eyes popping wide open in a flick of unease. The mouth beneath them rapidly shifts to its best attempt at a casual smile, "Aren't there more animals that need cleaning?" Aggie asked with a big dopey grin.
"I think we are the only ones left, and we can't wait to get the mud out of our hair," Trollzart said as he and the Classical Trolls stroke their hair, feeling the mud on them
Looking frantically about herself, Aggie spotted a baby black Eighth Goat at the edge of a mud puddle and bunted it into it with her Funk leg.
"Oh, no! The baby got dirty! I'd better stay longer to help give him a bath too!" Aggie pretended to be dramatic.
As the Classical leader looked on with clear concern, his adoptive granddaughter trotted away, and put the baby Eight Goat into the washtub, scrubbing its body with a scrub brush.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, Aggie just finished the baby Eighth Goat as she dried it with a bath towel.
Thank you ever so much for staying to give the little one a bath too. But, um... I think he's dry," Trollzart pointed.
A still-filthy Aggie rubbed intently over something covered with a towel. She stood up, catching off guard, and pulled the towel away. Underneath it is the baby Eighth Goat, sparkling clean and very much out of sorts, and black cloud body fluffed out wildly in every direction.
Trollzart then noticed the sun was about to set, "Goodness, it's gotten late!" He turned to his tribe, "Alright, everyone, time for you to head home. We have a big rehearsal to practice," The Classical Trolls bowed to their leader, before turning away to get back to their homes. Then, Trollzart turned to Aggie, "And Agatha, you really didn't have to stay all day, not that we don't appreciate it."
Now Aggie took a mop to clean off the mud on the ground.
"I, for one, am exhausted," the leader of the Classical Trolls yawned. "Plus, I really need to rest up for that big pancake breakfast tomorrow. "
Aggie managed to completely miss this hint and continued mopping.
"And I'm sure you have to go back to TrollsTopia to get some rest."
During this line, Aggie finally snapped out of cleaning mode and turned to Trollzart with panic writ large on her face, "No! I'm fine!" She forced herself to form a smile. But maybe I'd better see if Poppy needed help with the pancakes."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, the leaders visited TrollsTopia when they got an invitation to have a pancake breakfast with Poppy, Branch, Aggie and their ambassadors. The table was loaded with plates of pancakes sporting a surfeit of various toppings. Each Troll was on low chairs and getting their eat on.
"Mmm...these are delicious, Poppy," Holly finished munching her pancake.
Poppy swallowed, "Thanks. Aggie spent all night helping me pick the flavor. I kept thinking we'd found the right one, but she insisted I make even more to try and more, and more, and more, and more, and more. It was like she never wanted to—"
"Leave?" the Beat Drop Button fish guessed.
"Exactly!" the Pop Queen nodded, "Eventually we ran out of time, so we just went with Every-Berry-Any-Chip Surprise," Now she whisked over to Branch, whispering loudly, "The surprise is, I lost a measuring spoon in the batter!" Then, said in normal volume, "Somebody's gonna get a very special pancake!" Poppy zipped back to her seat.
Suddenly, very concerned for the state of his own teeth and digestive system, the King of Funk carefully pried up the top half of his stack and peered beneath. To find the measuring spoon Poppy was talking about.
"Up all night, huh?" Val cut in, "Is that why she's so...uh...out of it?" She pointed to the Magic Musical Troll.
It is revealed that Aggie now looked like a bedraggled, muddy, scuffed-up wreck and was asleep where she sat, snoring loudly over her plate.
"Um, I don't mean to sound unappreciative, but has anyone else noticed that Aggie's been a little too helpful lately? Dante asked.
"Now that there y'all menshun it, she were a-lendin' ayy hand at Lonesome Flats the othuurr day, ayn' stuk around 'til near midnaheet. Dug up 57 tree-plantin' holes when all ay done needed were 15," Delta explained.
*Flashback*
Across a tract of orchard land of Lonesome peppered with dozens of freshly dug holes. Aggie pitched dirt up from within one of the holes with a small shovel. Aggie put her head up, showing spots of dirt all over her face, and grinned placatingly as Delta returned a humoring but uneasy one with a few Country Trolls behind her, all carrying saplings of fruit trees.
*End of Flashback*
"4 days ago, she spent an entire afternoon rearranging a single gem drawer that I owned. An entire afternoon!" Essence added.
*Flashback*
Satisfied, the Magic Musical Troll used a loupe to look at green gems, and sent the stones down to rest in a cushioned drawer. They were identical to each other and to the ten already resting within.
*End of Flashback*
"You think that's weird?" Trollex interrupted, "Last week, when Aggie and I made-up, she was having fun raving. But when we wanted to rest from raving for a little bit, she wanted us to continue. I played every Techno song I've got, and we kept on raving without resting, not even a single minute. She insisted. Even I got tired. When everyone went back home to rest for the day, I noticed Aggie was still raving, even without music, the entire night! My girlfriend is full of energy!"
*Flashback*
Aggie was joining the rave with the crowd of Techno Trolls as her boyfriend kept playing his DJ mixer.
Time passed, and the Techno Trolls were almost tired, but Aggie kept on dancing as she winked to the Techno leader. Trollex smiled sheepishly as he played another song.
Night almost came, and the Techno Trolls stopped dancing, already feeling tired, but Aggie kept on raving, forcing one of them to dance with her as Trollex tiredly played another song.
At night, when Trollex was about to hit the night, he noticed his girlfriend still raved with glow sticks, even without music.
*End of Flashback*
"As much as I love being hit to make beat drop sounds, I think I've been dropped too many times than usual," Beat admitted, feeling dizzy, "I almost had a headache that week."
"You think yours is worse? We played music together at my concert 2 nights ago. Even if the concert was already over, she still stood on-stage, and played her guitar harder and louder than me. She even almost blew the whole stage down... literally!"
*Flashback*
Barb, Riff and Aggie played Rock music on-stage together.
When Barb and Riff were about to get off, Aggie was still playing her guitar, harder and longer than usual, causing a small earthquake that caused the stage to nearly collapse. Barb and Riff caught some broken parts of the stage to save Aggie from getting hit as her music stopped.
When the Rock Trolls cheered for her, she played her guitar even more, causing the crowd to groan tiredly.
*End of Flashback*
Barb continued, "It took us 12 hours to fix and recheck the stage. I know hanging out with me is awesome, but it was like she'd rather keep causing major destructions than—"
"Leave?" Trollzart guessed.
"Yeah. Who does that?" the Queen of Rock wondered.
They all looked at Aggie. The wiped-out sovereign's head tumbled forward to plant itself in her pancakes face first, scattering whipped cream and toppings all over the table. Aggie cuddled the stack in her arms like a pillow and went right on snoring.
"Someone who's avoiding something that's who. Soon as she wakes up, we're gonna find out what," Lownote suggested.
Synth smacked the edge of his plate, launching his pancakes toward the ceiling, let the cakes fall into his mouth, and swallowed them. His eyes popped with instant discomfort, which was relieved when the techno ambassador spat out a spoon that Poppy talked about earlier. It hurtled across the table, nailed Dante dead square in the forehead, and fell to stick in his food. He stared at this unorthodox culinary tweak with great trepidation, "Ha ha! I win!" He yelled
Aggie woke up with a start, and a pancake stuck and covered most of her face, "I'm pancake! I mean, awake," She moved the pancake aside and grinned sheepishly.
"Uh, Aggie? Is there something' you want to tell us?" Branch asked.
"You know how much we appreciate all you do for us. And we simply adore having you around, but...we worry you might be avoiding something else?" Essence added
"Avoiding? Me? Ha! I don't avoid anything!" Aggie laughed.
"Come on, Aggie, we know you. We know you're a pretty bad liar to make an excuse like that," Val said.
"Plus, we're dating, I know that something's bothering you," Trollex pointed.
"Guys, I'm fine, really. I'm just doing my job as the Master of All Music, and your good friend," the Master of All Music explained
"Yeah, but you're kinda overdoing it," Synth concluded.
"I just love my job, that's all."
Suddenly, Smidge burst from the door, panting in exhaustion.
"You're Majesties, sorry to interrupt, but there's an emergency!" She shouted.
"Thank you!" Aggie shouted in relief, because the emergency might keep her friends distracted from the certain topic, but then, she cleared her throat, sounding concerned, "Oh, what's wrong, Smidge?"
"There are three pests attacking TrollsTopia!" the small deep-voiced Trolls said
"What do they look like?" Quincy asked
"They're praying mantises!"
"Praying mantises? Aww, they're just so tiny!" Branch chuckled.
"See for yourselves! Come on!"
When Smidge ran off, the leaders and the ambassadors left the meeting mushroom to follow. But when they arrived at the meadow, they gasped of what it seemed to be three giant green praying mantises, growling and roaring like dinosaurs as they jabbed their pincers on the ground, trying to grab any Troll they could see
"Okay, I take it all back for them being tiny!" the King of Pop admitted
"Come on, we have to take them all out of the village," Poppy said as she and her fellow leaders charged towards the giant mantises while Aggie and the ambassadors left behind to keep the other Trolls safe.
While the leaders tried to distract the mantises from taking more Trolls, Delta pulled out a book from her hair, and read it while galloping, "It says here that there these praying mantises have awful long, bendable pincers, sharp mandibles. They ken mowve so stealthily, ayn' act quik, a-killin' in ayy single swipe."
"You can say that again!" Barb jumped away when one of the mantes nearly swiped her with its pincers
"Usually, they are solitary but ken be in groups," the mayor added the info.
"Obviously, they are all three!" Trollex shouted before hovering away from another mantis.
"To them, Trolls look like bugs, and they love to eat bugs."
"Ugh! Us? Bugs?" Poppy was offended for that.
"They even add sweets for dipping."
Coincidentally for that topic, Biggie was about to grab the rolling whipped cream can, but a mantic grabbed him by its pincers, and a whipped cream sprayed on his hair.
"I don't want to be a treat with whipped cream! AAAHHHH!" Biggie screamed when the mantis was about to eat him.
But Poppy used her hair to whip the mantis' pincers, causing it to roar in pain, and released Biggie before he ran away.
"We have to lure them out of here before-" Before Poppy could finish, a mantis grabbed her.
"Poppy!" Branch shouted. He got angry for the monster taking his girlfriend as he charged at them in rage, but he was grabbed by the same mantis that Poppy got captured by.
Barb jumped onto the mantis' antennas to try to distract it to give Poppy and Branch time to free themselves, but the mantis jabbed one of its pincers to swipe the Rock Queen off its head, causing her to crash onto the tree, and knocking her down unconsciously.
The second mantis roared loudly as it stepped one of its legs on the ground, causing a small earthquake that made Delta Dawn, Quincy and Essence stumbled down, and got themselves trapped underneath the same mantis.
The third mantis jabbed both of its pincers to swipe Trollex and Trollzart, who were flying around to avoid getting caught. They tried to fly as high as they could, but it was too late when they tried to escape, and they got caught between the third mantis' pincers.
Poppy, Branch, Trollex and Trollzart struggled themselves to break free, Barb was still unconscious, and Delta, Quincy and Essence were trapped as they tried to move away, but they will get killed immediately if they move.
"Hey!" Aggie stepped in, getting the mantises' attention, "Let them go!" But the mantises didn't listen to her as they were about to eat the leaders with their sharp mandibles read to snap. Suddenly, this made Aggie even angrier as dark clouds covered the sun, causing the place to be dark, and wind howled softly, waving her hair, "I said... Let... Them... GO!"
At this last word, Aggie stomped her hoof on the ground really hard, creating a large crack that pointed on the three mantises, and they almost lost their balance. Aggie's raging eyes flickered to glow red, orange, yellow, blue, purple and pink one at a time in a rapid speed as she was levitated from the ground, her hands clenched, and six elements were unleashed around her; fire, water, air, earth, fauna, and light.
The Trolls felt a sudden disturbance when they were hiding from the giant mantises. They came out of hiding, and noticed Aggie levitated into the air with six elements rounded around her.
Aggie kicked her orange hoof up, causing an earth column structure to emerge under Delta, and hit the second mantis' face by the chin. The tall earth column that Aggie emerged used this opportunity for Delta to escape as she flipped herself to stand on her hooves again, and galloped all the way down to reach the ground.
Using her mind, Aggie managed to create "Troll-eating" flowers to rescue Branch and Poppy from the mantis' grasp by "eating" them, and spit them out to release them to safety.
With a wave of her Classical hand, Aggie made the wind stronger to blow Trollzart away, slipping him off from the third mantis' pincers. With the kick of her Funk legs, she made bright balls of light all over the second mantis' eyes, blinding it temporarily. This is Quincy and Essence's chance to escape as they got up and ran off.
Aggie then waved her Rock hand to make fire retrieve Barb, who just woke up from unconsciousness, and was surprised that there's fire all over here without getting burned.
And whipping her Techno tail, Aggie manipulated water to retrieve Trollex from the third mantis' pincers.
While her friends are finally safe, Aggie then unleashed an even stronger wave of her six elements by washing the mantises with water, blowing them with strong winds and flashing balls of light on their eyes that caused them to move backwards, trapping their legs wind vines that emerged from the ground, growing tall blunt earth column structures to hit them by their bodies and fell, and formed a fire wall between her and the giant mantises. The fire started the insects as they fled off, away from TrollsTopia as they can, thinking that Troll is too dangerous for them to eat.
The other Trolls saw the mantises run off in fear as they came out of hiding, and cheered that no one got hurt or eaten. But the chaos wasn't over yet as Aggie was still in control of her own newly-developed powers as the winds began to blow stronger, the water flooded the whole place, plants grow in trees and turned into carnivorous-eating flowers, balls of light became brighter, land structures continued to emerged even more, and fire began to spread.
The Trolls to hold for their dear lives. McJagger was swept away by the flood, but Laguna grabbed him in time, and held onto a branch of a tree. Some Trolls tried to run away from emerging earth column structures, but they got carried away from one emerging land structure to another. The leaders were blown away by the strong winds as they tried to grab hold onto the branches as they could.
Seeing that his girlfriend was out of control, Trollex tried to grasp the tree branch as he could before shouting her name, "AGGIE!"
The voice of her boyfriend's voice was louder than the screams of the other Trolls. Aggie heard that familiar voice as she finally snapped out of it, causing the flicking 6 glowing colors of her eyes to fade away, her powers broke with just one "poof", dropping herself back to the ground, and all of her accidental magic was undone in an instant' the bright balls of light and fire disappeared, flood dried up, the land structures and plants submerged back into the ground, and the winds stopped blowing. The leaders fell back into the ground with harmless flowers catching them safely.
Aggie sat up, rubbing her head in pain. She didn't know how she did all those magic things, and what caused them to show up, but it took a lot of power to unleash all of them at once.
Melody then ran towards Aggie with a gasp while pushing a baby stroller that contained an egg that is soon to be her new younger sibling, "What was that?!"
"Are ya okay?" Buckaroo helped the Magic Musical Troll to get up.
"Note: I have never seen anything like it!" Laguna floated towards her, and wrote what she had observed from Aggie as McJagger followed behind her.
When the other Trolls gathered around, whispering and asking questions to Aggie, the leaders then came in front
"Aggie, what happened?" Poppy asked.
"And how did you do that?" Trollex added
"I... I don't know," Aggie stammered. She was afraid of herself for what happened, "I just saw you in danger, I was angry, and this happened!"
Then, the Funk twin scientists came next to Aggie.
"Hmm, maybe we should take to our lab to see what's wrong with you," Rhythm suggested
"So, we would know why these... things happened," Blues added as she and her sister guided Aggie to their lab
"Don't worry, guys. I'm fine," Aggie insisted, but the twins still wanted to take some research as the leaders, ambassadors, and few of the delegates followed them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At Rhythm and Blues' lab, Aggie sat on a chair with a suction-cup electrode on each of her body parts; her hoof, her funk leg, her Rock arm, her Classical arm, and her Techno tail.
"This machine will tell us what has happening to you," Blues put the last suction-cup electrode on her forehead
"Just be still in a few seconds, and we'll get the results in no time," Rhythm said as she pushed some buttons, and the lights of the lab glitched and flickered.
Aggie tried to stay still as she was a little afraid of this experiment. Then, the machine printed out the results as Rhythm grabbed it.
"Here it is!" She exclaimed.
Then, the two scientists read the results, and Blues gasped happily, "Wow to the wow, girl,"
"What is it?" Aggie asked.
"It seems that you just unleashed your newly-found magic," Blues announced. Aggie, the leaders, ambassadors and the other delegates gasped surprisingly as they all chattered happily and excitingly for Aggie that she finally showed her magic for the first time, "According to our research from the Pop Tribe Library at the section Magic Musical, Magic Musical Trolls often unleashed their newly-developed magic after they chose their music and earned their True Colors."
Rhythm then added, "But yours was delayed because, as the only Magic Musical Troll to gain colors through all kinds of music, no one wrote a record about the powers that will be unleashed from a Troll."
"Oh," the Magic Musical Troll frowned, "Probably was too busy discovering my own magic that I didn't know it was inside of me when I got my True Colors, and I didn't unleash it. I just kept it all inside without knowing it."
"Aww, that's okay, Aggie. We don't know, too," Essence placed her hand on her shoulder, comforting her. Then, she turned to Rhythm and Blues, "But is there a reason why Aggie suddenly unleashed her magic just now?"
"Yes-to-the yes, Your Majesty!" Rhythm exclaimed, then telling Aggie, "When you saw us and the leaders in danger, you were so angry, you accidentally released the energy of your magic."
"Your magic depends on your emotions!" Blues stated.
"Huh, I guess that explains why my magic was out of control," chuckled Aggie, "Wait, if my magic just showed up... what about my psychic visions."
"Oh yes, you already have the result, but we go interrupted when those praying mantises attack the village," Laguna stated as Rhythm gave another result to her, "It says here your visions are genetic."
"Genetic? What's that mean?" Legsly asked.
"It means she got her psychic visions from her family," Lownote answered
"According to our research, Magic Musical Trolls don't have psychic powers as their common power, so Aggie must have inherited her psychic powers from your family, "the antrollpologist added the information.
"So, do you know someone who has psychic visions from your family, Aggie? Like your mom or dad or anyone?" Darnell asked
"Well, no. I mean, if I should've known, Mom and Dad would've told me," Aggie answered as she couldn't remember who in her family has psychic visions like her.
"Whel, it must be someone in y'all's kinfolk who has this here kaand av power, partner. Whoevuurr it were, it done passed down ta y'all," Gust said to the Master of All Music.
"Well, we can discuss that later. Psychic visions are not that dangerous. All we have to do is to tame your powers!" Poppy said excitingly.
"How are we going to do that, Popsqueak?! We're not Magic Musical Trolls like Aggie, and we don't have magic!" Val reminded, raising her voice.
"Awful easy, just controlling huurr emotions!" Holly said.
"Pfft! This is gonna be a snap!" Aggie snapped her fingers, feeling confident... Until, the lights all over the lab flickered and blinked uncontrollably and rapidly, making the other Trolls gaped in shock. Seeing that the lights were about to explode, Aggie tried to relax herself, calming her emotions down as the light went back to normal, "Sorry about that."
"They were undamaged, no big deal," Rhythm waved her hand.
"You know, back in Harmonious Land, after Trolls chose their music and earned their colors, they immediately got into training to tame their magic abilities before they even got unleashed. I remember how my nephew and two of my cousins earned their colors, and went straight to their parents for training, despite that they have different powers and different music, they still find a way to train their children... The techniques of taming magic are similar, and... heh, it was fun how they chose their music and trained at a very young age."
As explained, Aggie started to feel something inside that made her feel... sad. She could feel her throat choking when she managed to hold her tears in, wanting to cry, but she wanted to hold them in, avoiding her friends to find out she was sad.
Suddenly, because of these secret emotions, which were unknown to the other Trolls, they heard something shaking behind them. They all slowly turned their heads, and stared at the shaking barrel with water inside. The barrel suddenly filled itself with more water for an unknown reason, and when it extended, it exploded! The barrel broke into pieces, letting out a wave of water all over the lab instead of gallons. The Trolls screamed as they were washed away by the water, except for Aggie, who was still sitting on the chair, and trying to swallow her sadness in. She didn't notice the wave of water under her.
"Aggie!" Melody screamed, making Aggie snap out of her thoughts, "Help!" the half-Pop/half-Rock Troll held on one of lab apparatus while holding her soon-to-be-sibling egg.
Aggie realized it was her sadness that caused the flood as she tried to calm down, and tried to be happy.
When she felt a little better, the water slowly sank and dried up, leaving just puddles all over the flower, and the Trolls had their feet back on the ground.
"Sorry," Aggie blushed
Trollex then approached her, "Are you okay, Aggie?"
When Aggie looked at her concerned boyfriend and the rest of the Trolls, she realized her sadness was showing, but she's not ready to talk about her feelings right now. She didn't want them to worry about her, "I... uh..., can I go home? I need a little rest. All that unleashing-my-magic thing really drained my energy," When Aggie rubbed her head, pretending to have a headache, Blues pushed a button, opening a wormhole as the exit. The Master of All Music removed the suction-cup electrode, and jumped off the chair, "I gotta go. See ya guys."
When Aggie entered the wormhole, out of the ship, the Trolls started to feel worried for her.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the meeting mushroom, the leaders, ambassadors, and the Beat drop button fish returned to discuss their Magic Musical friend.
"I don't think resting is what Aggie needed to tame her newly-developed magic, it's definitely controlling her emotions," Quincy started.
"And I don't think her emotions can do good because her magic was unstable," Lownote added.
"Do you think she is still hiding something?" Trollzart asked.
"I think so. Whenever we discussed her tribe, and her family, she started to feel..." Poppy answered, "Guys, I think Aggie is...homesick."
"Homesick? I don't see that she's homesick," Synth shrugged.
"Exactly! She's been hiding how she felt," the Queen of Pop clarified.
"Ya mean, she's bottling huurr emotions?" Holly guessed.
"Oof! Bottled emotions are not very good for you, and she needs to let them all out," Quincy stated.
"Okay, let's just talk to her so she can let her emotions out," Poppy suggested.
"Poppy, ya done said it you, Aggie can't tell us because she done hid huurr feelings frawum us. She doesn't like ta admit that there she's homesik," Delta reminded
"Maybe this is why she is been so helpful lately," Dante concluded, "Whenever she visited and spent time with us every now and then, our kingdoms reminded her of her home because of the themes, and how all of us resemble her tribe,"
"Well, almost, I don't think we look like them," Trollex corrected, recalling the different appearances of the Magic Musical Trolls from theirs.
"So, how can we get Aggie to let out her bottled emotions? She needs to get them out of her chest or she'll explode." Beat said
"Yeah, she's not gonna be able to stay like this forever, you know. Pretending that she's fine is not very good," Barb agreed.
"Well, I don't know what you expect us to do about it," Branch answered.
Barb suddenly narrowed her eyes, "You don't?"
"No, I don't," the King of Pop answered, but Barb kept narrowing her eyes on her fellow leaders and ambassadors, "Okay, stop looking at us like that," Branch started to feel creeping out.
"Look, I'm going to propose something, and I need you guys to hear me out. Will you promise you'll do that?" the Queen of Rock asked.
"I guess," Trollex said
"You guess or you will?
"Yes, yes, we'll hear you out, Your Rockness," Val nodded.
"Okay, well, we all know bottled emotions are not very good for all Trolls. I've been there before, and I let it all out to Popsqueak here, and then the rest of you."
"So, we should wait until Aggie talked about it," said Lownote.
"That doesn't really solve our problem, now, does it?"
"Yes, it does," Synth responded suspiciously.
"No, it doesn't though, really. See, you-you're not..." Barb then chuckled softly, "You're not thinking this through. We would still be faced with the problem of emotions, you see. Talking is not the only option to let her emotions out soon. It's not enough."
"So, what are we gunna do if a-talkin' is nahwt enough?" the Country leader inquired.
"Well, I would suggest that if the Troll were to be deflated..." Barb answered
"We're nahwt a-followin' ya, sugar," Holly was confused, as were the other leaders and her fellow ambassadors.
"Neither do I," Trollzart added.
Barb then repeated, "If the Trolls were to be deflated before exploding..."
The other leaders and ambassadors stared at each other, still confused.
"W-what does that...? What are you driving at?" Trollex questioned.
"You know... making her cry," the Rock Queen murmured.
"What?!" the Trolls and the Beat Drop Button fish exclaimed.
"We should make her cry!"
"You're out of your rockin' mind!" Trollex shouted angrily.
"Now, you promised you'd hear me out. Besides, is it really that big a deal? You said you always wanted to help Aggie," Barb pointed.
"Yes, but not like this!" the Techno King yelled.
"Is that really a huge distinction?"
"It is to me! I can't even... how would... You... That's sick! That is sick of you! How messed up in the head are you that y-you would even ask?!"
Barb then held her hands in front of her, "Look, okay, okay, just calm down, okay? We're not, we're not.... We're just talking. We're not doing anything yet. All right, we're just talking. Nobody's doing anything at this point. Boy, you're angrier than me... well, it comes to Aggie, I knew you would react this way," she scoffed, "So all we need to do is make Aggie cry without hurting her physically or emotionally. We just have to let her hurt into tears in any way. Crying, happily, angry or anything that doesn't involve hurting. If we want to help Aggie, then this is what we're going to do. It's for her own good."
But Trollex was still against this, "There is no way any of that is happening!"
"Well, I don't see a way around it, do you?"
"Said the Troll who used to want to unite as all under Rock music."
The other leaders and ambassadors gasped as they turned to Barb.
The Queen of Rock tried to be patient with one of her fellow leaders, but Trollex brought that certain topic up as Barb started to get angry with a guitar in her hand, and stepped on the table, "Oh, you're gonna get it this time, fish boy!"
Trollex realized he was way too far as he slightly held his hands up, "Barb, come on, you don't want to do this,"
"Oh, really? What if I hold like this where I can hit your top knot?" She raised her guitar, threatening to whack Trollex with it.
"Whoa, whoa, come on, man. Take it easy, alright? I-I don't want any trouble."
"There's not gonna be any trouble as long as you make your girlfriend cry!"
"No! Never!" the King of Techno yelled angrily.
"Well, then I'll be forced to hit you with my guitar," the Queen of Rock raise dher guitar again.
"Go ahead. I won't get hurt for that."
"I don't believe you."
"Then hit me."
"I will."
"Do it."
"I will!"
"Then do it! What are you waiting for?! Go on!"
"I WILL! I'LL SMASH YOUR HEAD OFF!"
"Okay, you two, that's enough!" Essence came across between Trollex and Barb, pushing them apart from each other, "This will take us nowhere to solve the problem!" She then turned to Barb, "Put the guitar down."
Barb rolled her eyes as she put her guitar down
"I'm sorry, Trollex, but... I have to agree with Barb," Branch confessed, "I mean, I don't want to make her cry either, but crying is a way to let her feelings out of her chest, and if she does, she can finally confess that she's homesick, and we'll make her better afterwards."
Trollex himself didn't like this plan because he already made Aggie cry, and he didn't want to do it again, but since another leader agreed with Barb's plan, he couldn't argue with that, "Fine! But I don't want to be part of this."
"Awesome!" Synth cheered, then asked, "So, what do you do to make a Troll cry without hurting them?"
"I know just a way, and we need the other Trolls' help with this," Poppy declared.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the leaders and ambassadors discussed their plan to make Aggie release her bottled emotions, the delegates just showed their disapproving faces.
"Bad idea," Melody crossed her arms.
"Told you," Trollex murmured to Barb, who rolled her eyes.
"But this is the only way to release her bottled emotions!" Branch said
"By a-makin' huurr cry?! Ovuurr my dang body!" Buckaroo scoffed.
"Note: I'm an antrollpologist. I don't allow myself to make other Trolls cry," Laguna stated
"Look, I know this is tough, but this for Aggie. She's homesick," Poppy then told Rhythm and Blues, "R, B, you girls decided to cry out your homesickness, remember?"
"Yes, but it's our choice, not making others do it for us." Rhythm corrected
"Come on, guys. This is for Aggie. This is for our teacher, our master," Trollex pleaded. Despite that he didn't like the idea, he wanted to help his girlfriend.
The delegates glanced at each other at first, doubting about this idea, but all they wanted too was to help Aggie, no matter what way.
"Well, if this is for Aggie, then... we'll try," McJagger said as the others nodded
"Great!" Delta then asked, " So anyone has ayy suggesshun ta trigguurr ayy cry?" Suddenly, Cooper took out nunchucks from his hat, " Without a-hurtin' anyone, physically ayn' emotionally?" When the mayor continued, the Pop-Funk Troll put the nunchucks back in his hat.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the afternoon after resting, Aggie decided to take a stroll in the forest. She didn't notice that, while she happily strolled, her steps left tiny flowers growing behind. Her newly-found magic was still unstable as it depends on her emotions.
Suddenly, Melody popped out from the bushes with a baby stroller that held her little sibling egg, "Hey, Aggie!"
"Oh, hi, Melody!" Aggie greeted
"Beautiful day today, huh? Thanks for saving us from those mantises."
"No problem. My magic just happened. It's no big deal."
"It is a big deal!" then, they noticed the egg shaking a bit as Melody said, "Even the egg said it too. And you know what makes this memorable? Selfie!" She pulled out a camera from her hair
"Oh, no! Make it a group selfie! Because we want to join too!" DJ Suki said with the Snack Pack behind her
"Note: I would like a picture myself," Laguna stated.
"Me too," McJagger added while putting a hand on Laguna's shoulder.
"I hope you all don't mind if I can join this group selfie," Minuet asked for permission.
Then every Troll in TrollsTopia, including the leaders, that Aggie were close with joined in every second, until they got squished together to get themselves within the picture.
"Whoa, everyone is here?" Aggie muffled while her face got squished.
But Guy Diamond shushed her, "Ssshhh! Aggie, smile for the cameraaaaa!"
When Melody took the shot, the trolls looked at their picture.
"Aww, look at that..." Satin started, "Beautiful group of friends."
Chenille sniffed, wiping a tear of joy, "It's like we're like one big family!"
"Isn't it cute, Aggie?" Biggie asked.
"Yeah, cute," Aggie replied. Though the Trolls expected her to cry with happiness, but Aggie didn't show a single tear, "But thanks for the selfie, guys. It was nice of... all of you," she said curiously before walking away.
The Trolls sighed devastatingly that their plan didn't work
"Ugh, it's not working!" Branch groaned.
"Let's try again!" Poppy said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, at mid-afternoon, Synth called Aggie, led her to Techno Lagoon, which she was curious why the Techno ambassador led her there.
Trollex then encountered her when she landed on the bottom floor, "Hey, Trollex, what's going on?"
"Aggie, sweetie, do you wanna hear a song? I saved this just for you," Trollex then swam to his reserved DJ mixer that he kept in Techno Lagoon just in case he would like to play music during his visit.
Rhythm, Blues, Demo, Low-Note Jones, and Dante: Ooohhhh ooohhhhhh ooohhhhhh ooohhhhhh
Trollex: Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Suddenly, Blue and green spotlights shined above Aggie as she stood still.
Trollex: Yeah, I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay?"
I say
Then, the other leaders and ambassadors swam around, and did the vocal background.
Trollex, Synth and Beat: When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Aggie suddenly blushed.
Trollex: Yeah
Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so funny
She's so beautiful
Trollex and Synth: And I tell her everyday
Oh, you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change
Trollex, Beat and Laguna: If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
Trollex: So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say
Trollex, Synth, and Beat: When I see your face
Snack Pack, Laguna, Melody, Buckaroo, Gust, McJagger, Darnell, Rhythm, Blues, Riff, Demo, and Minuet: (when I see your face)
Trollex, Synth, and Beat: There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Snack Pack, Laguna, Melody, Buckaroo, Gust, McJagger, Darnell, Rhythm, Blues, Riff, Demo, and Minuet: ('cause you're amazing)
Leaders, ambassadors and Beat: Just the way you are
Trollex, Synth, and Beat: And when you smile
Snack Pack, Laguna, Melody, Buckaroo, Gust, McJagger, Darnell, Rhythm, Blues, Riff, Demo, and Minuet: (when you smile)
Trollex, Synth, and Beat: The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Snack Pack, Laguna, Melody, Buckaroo, Gust, McJagger, Darnell, Rhythm, Blues, Riff, Demo, and Minuet: (you're amazing)
All sans Aggie: Just the way you are
The way you are
The way you are
Trollex: Girl, you're amazing
Snack Pack, Laguna, Melody, Buckaroo, Gust, McJagger, Darnell, Rhythm, Blues, Riff, Demo, and Minuet: (you're amazing)
All sans Aggie: Just the way you are
Trollex: When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
All sans Trollex and Aggie: (just the way you are)
Trollex: And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
All san Trollex and Aggie: (just the way you are)
Trollex: Yeah
After the song, Aggie's eyes just sparkled, reflecting the lights all around Techno Reef, and her smile got a little bigger, becoming speechless
"Aww, Trollex, that's so sweet of you," she was about to cry in happiness, which her friends expected her to, but the problem is... they are underwater, and they're not sure if she formed a tear or not. But, in reality, she wasn't crying at all. She just formed a smile. She swam fast towards her boyfriend, and gave him a loving hug, "Love you, sweetie," she kissed him on the cheek before swimming away, going back to the surface.
But then, Demo rushed in front of her, asking, "Uh, don't you feel a little too happy?"
"I'm just happy, that's all. Now, if you'll excuse me?" Aggie swam past Demo before swimming upwards towards the surface.
Trollex sighed as he put his headphones down, and swam over his DJ Mixer next to Barb, "I told you I can't make her cry"
"Or maybe you can just tell her..." Barb suggested making Trollex pretend to break up with Aggie.
But the Techno leader already guessed what Barb meant as he glared sharply at her, "Not in a million years!"
"Okay, plan C!" Poppy then declared.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At Country Corral, Aggie was strumming a banjo, playing Country Music, until she was encountered by younger Trolls, CJ, Priscilla, Keith, and the toddlers she babysat, Tiny Diamond, Shredder, Enzo, Coral Blush, and Alto
"Master Aggie! Master Aggie!" They called
"Oh, hello little ones," Aggie put the banjo down.
"You were so awesome saving the village this morning," Coral Blush said.
The Master of All Music blushed, "Yeah, with your magic and stuff!"
"Not just magic. I like how you play so many kinds of music at once! You inspire us to play other music than our own!" CJ noted.
"You're like a superhero, Master Aggie!" Tiny exclaimed.
"Well, not really a superhero. My magic was just newly-developed," Aggie blushed even more, trying to hide her face.
But then, Enzo tugged her dress, and looked at her, "When I grow up, I wanna be just like you, Master Aggie!"
"Oooh, that is so sweet of you, Enzo! So adorable!" Aggie bent down, and patted the little Funk Troll.
While Aggie bonded with the younger Trolls, the leaders, ambassadors and the delegates were hiding behind cacti and in barrels as the Magic Musical Troll talking to the Trollings.
"Well, this is a coincidence Plan C," Smidge murmured.
"Is she crying?" Cooper asked.
Darnell used his hair in the form of binoculars to see if Aggie formed or shed just a little tear, but there's nothing as Aggie made a big smile, "No!"
The other Trolls groaned frustratingly... until they noticed the cacti that some of them were hiding behind grew flowers from Aggie's magic.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the delegates decided to go back to their normal business as they tried everything to make Aggie cry, the leaders and ambassadors still stuck together to talk about the same issue.
"This is getting us nowhere! That girl is too tough to cry!" Val screamed.
"She almost done cried in R ayn' B's lab, but she just stopped!" Holly recalled.
"There's gotta be something we can make her cry," Lownote said.
"Hmm, as I remember, when Aggie mentioned about her family, she started to cry," Poppy announced, "What if we can make a party for her that reminded her of her family and her home?"
The leaders and ambassadors glanced at each other before smiling and nodded.
"I like the idea, Poppy, but the problem is... we don't know so much about her family and her tribe," Trollex rectified.
Branch thought of something, then snapped his finger, "I think I have a solution."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Aggie's pod, Aggie was cleaning her bedroom as she didn't realize she left her backpack open near the window.
Poppy secretly used her hair to lower herself near Aggie's window as she quietly and carefully reached the backpack, and took Aggie's photo album. Poppy quickly lifted herself up from the window before Aggie thought she sensed something behind her. She looked behind, and saw just her backpack. She shrugged as she continued cleaning the desk.
Outside, under the tree, the leaders and ambassadors gathered together to see what Poppy got.
"I hate stealing from Aggie, but we have to know what she likes and about her family back home," the Pop Queen as she opened the photo album to show the pictures to her fellow leaders and ambassadors
"Oh, look at Aggie," Synth pointed at a picture of a 5-year-old Aggie, who was still gray with black hair and white dress that time, "This is her when she was still younger!"
"And that must be her favorite cake," Essence pointed at the cake in front of young Aggie.
Then, they all looked at the next picture, revealing Aggie opening her mouth as wide as the cake to eat the whole thing, "Yeah, definitely her favorite," Dante whispered.
When Poppy flipped the album to the next page, they saw another fascinating picture
"Huh, these must be her aunts," Lownote pointed to a picture of 7-year-old Aggie with her 5 aunts. Then, he spotted another picture of her having her cheeks pinched by her aunts, "too loveable aunts."
Delta then pointed to a picture of the same 7-year-old Aggie wearing her farming wardrobe while scratching the soil with a rake, " Ayn' that there's huurr wawking on ayy farm."
Trollex then noticed a picture of a 3-year-old Aggie trying to swim with the help of her dad and older half-sister, who was a Magic Funk, in the pool, "Aww, that must be her trying to swim. No wonder she was already good at swimming."
"Wow, Aggie has a wonderful life back home. No wonder she's homesick," Beat said
Poppy then closed the album, and declared, "Alright, guys. Let's make a party for Aggie that all the memories of her home. We'll just have to base it on her album."
"Alright!" Val exclaimed.
"Hot dang!" Holly jumped.
"Wonderful" Trollzart giggled.
"Let's do this!" Barb smirked.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was nearly sunset, and Aggie was ready for a night rest. But then, she was interrupted when someone rang the doorbell. She flew down the stairs from her bedroom to the living room, and quickly opened the door.
"Oh, hey, Demo, Dante, what are you doing here?"
"Aggie, come with us. we want to show you something." Demo said.
"What is it?" the Master of All Music asked
"You shall see. It's a surprise!" Dante giggled as he and Demo dragged Aggie out of her pod.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Aggie, Demo and Dante made it down from the tree, all Trolls came together with balloons, streamers. There was also a table with food and cake, a board with pictures of her, her family, and her moments in Harmonious Land, and medium-sized natural and Trollmade attractions.
"Surprise!" The Trolls shouted. Few from the other kingdoms and the Bounty Hunters are here for the party
"Oh, my golly! What is all this?" Aggie chuckled when she startled at the surprise.
"Aggie, we didn't tell you this, but we realized you lived in Troll Kingdom for a while I know, and we think you missed your home. So, we decided we can make you feel like home in TrollsTopia," Poppy explained.
Branch then guided Aggie to the food table, "We made you your favorite food: Cookies N' Cream cake, Oyster-sauced broccoli, Baked-Turkey... wow, can't believe you would be so carnivorous."
"We even done dressed up as y'all's close relatives bak home," Holly said as she, few of her fellow Country Trolls, Classical Trolls, and Pop Trolls wore nice, casual and simple colored clothes that mismatched their respective tribes' outfits.
"And look," Melody showed up, dressed like an orange cat, "Meow! I dressed up as your cat!"
"Your family is too simple for fashion," Chenille commented uncomfortably.
"And their clothes didn't look like we're wearing," Satin added, crossing her arms.
Aggie was so touched, "Aww, you guys, you don't need to do that."
"Don't need-ta, we wan-ta," Gust chuckled, adjusting the hat made out of hay.
"We also built you bigger dioramas of the place you visited back home," Hickory then pointed to Aggie large dioramas of every attraction place she had visited at home, "Snowy peaks, the beach, the field of rainbow flowers..."
"I made the field of rainbow flowers diorama. It feels like Spring," Reef Marina cut in, "I love Spring. Everything just smells so fresh!" When the Rock-loving techno Troll stretched her arms, the other Trolls covered their nose from the stink.
Trollzart then held Aggie's hands to make him turn to his direction where he, and the other Trolls showed him a board of the photos of her and her family. They photocopied the pictures as the original photos were still kept in the album, "Aggie, this mural represents how much you love the place where you were born and raised, and where your family is."
Aggie smiled, until she noticed the photos were familiar to her, "Did you guys copy these from my album?"
"Moving on!" Wani chuckled as she made the Magic Musical Troll turn around to a dining table.
"And this is where and how you eat with your family, and we're here to accompany you," Riff finished as Marimba and Tambora reserved the Magic Musical Troll a seat, and Rhythm put the cookies n' cream cake in front of her on the table.
Aggie was so surprised that every Troll around her set up a party that reminded her of her home and her family. Her feelings these last few days were obvious that she's homesick as she figured her friends made this party for her so she won't feel so homesick anymore.
"Aww, thank you, guys. It means... so much to me. You guys make me feel like I was back home. This reminded me so much like home..., and... I really missed home and my family so much, and...," When she stared at the cake for too long, Aggie's memories of her 5th birthday appeared before her eyes, and remembered how her family sang her a "Happy Birthday" song, and made her favorite cake. Aggie looked down for a second, and just like that, she started crying uncontrollably, "WWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" She then dumped her forehead on the cake while crying
"Yes! We made her cry!" Barb smiled victoriously, but the Trolls didn't cheer with her as they looked so concerned.
"I think we take it too far," Trollex murmured.
Essence then picked up the crying Aggie, and patted her back, "Oh, poor baby. Let's get you back to your pod."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Quincy and Essence were in front as Aggie sat on Essence back while holding her cake, the other Trolls were behind them, trying to cheer up their friend.
"Oh, it's okay, Aggie," Buckaroo patted Aggie's head.
"Cheer up, Aggie." McJagger shook the back of her Rock hand.
But, Aggie sadly took a handful of cake, and put into her mouth as her face was stuffed with cookies n' cream cake
"Oh, Aggie...!" The other Trolls behind cooed.
"I've never seen Aggie look so sad like this before," Ari said
"You'll see your family, someday, Aggie. Maybe we can do more activities you did with your family, like traditional fiestas, Family Days, School programs, or..." Synth tried to finish all the events Aggie attended with her family to make her happy again.
"Synth, read the room!" Val reminded.
"It's okay, guys. I admitted that I'm homesick," Aggie jumped off of Essence's back when they just arrived under the tree where her pod was hanging, "It's been many months since I left home. I did plan to go home after I got my True Colors, but I was so happy since I stayed here with you guys. But the longer I stayed here, the more time I realized I missed my family and my home, and I received a letter from my aunts yesterday that my cat Orange just died."
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Aggie," Trollex gave his girlfriend a warm hug.
"Me, too," Biggie added while holding Mr. Dinkles.
"Thanks, guys. But Orange had a good long life. I guess it was just his time," Aggie said.
"I'm sorry that you weren't there for Orange," Baby Bun spoke.
"Not just Orange. I missed almost a lot of things at home. Most of my family's birthdays, wedding anniversaries, I don't even know if one of my cousins just laid an egg or not."
"Sorry that you missed your family, and the events you have to attend," Branch told her
"That's okay. I just missed almost one year. It's no big deal," Aggie tried to smile, "Now, if you'll excuse me. I better get back to my pod," She flew towards her pods as the other Trolls looked so concerned for her.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, the Trolls tried to do their everyday business, but after how Aggie cried so loud yesterday, they can't help but feel bad when they tried to break her homesickness.
Trollex tried to eat a cupcake at the same table with Beat, Synth, Darnell, the Reggaeton Trolls, Branch, and Minuet.
"Trollex, buddy, what's wrong? You haven't eaten that cupcake since you bought it," the beat drop Button said
The Techno King pushed the cupcake aside, "I'm not that hungry anyway. I just feel so bad for Aggie. She missed all the happenings back at her home since she left. All the parties, important celebrations, even the funeral of her own pet."
"Lo sé. No es justo cuando te perdiste las fiestas de tu propia casa, y las actividades divertidas con tu familia," Tambora said in her native language.
"She said It's not fair when you miss parties in your own home, and the fun activities with your family," Minuet translated as she quietly took a sip on a spoonful of soup.
"Aggie is more of a family Troll. Missing celebrations of your own family is one of the biggest regrets of your life," Darnell stated.
Suddenly, Aggie skipped around happily with a fur hat on her head
"Woo! Who's ready to start the morning?!" She laughed, tapping the table with her fingers.
"Wow, Aggie..., Miras..., Festivo," Marimba stammered.
"Thank you, Marimba," Aggie understood her, then translated it quietly to Trollex, Beat, Synth and Darnell, "She said I look festive," Then, she pulled the leader of the Reggaeton Trolls from his seat, "Come on, Tresillo, let's go make you a hat like mine. I taught you how to skin a rat, right?"
"That's weird. Aggie doesn't seem to be sad about her family at all," Synth said
"The really weird thing is they're going to look for rats in Misty Meadows," Branch added.
"Is that where the critters are?" Beat asked.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, every Troll of TrollsTopia heard a sudden commotion from the Town center. When they all came around to where the sound comes from, they all saw Aggie carving wood with a chainsaw.
"Okay, this is weird even for Aggie." Demo said.
"Yep. Unless one of the seven stages of grief is 'late night woodworking.'" Riff guessed.
The leaders then slowly approached aggie from behind and quietly.
"Aggie!" Trollex tried to call her, but she couldn't hear. He then placed a hand on her shoulder to make her turn to him, "Aggie!"
When Aggie turned around, she pointed the chainsaw at the leaders, "AAHHH!" they screamed and tried to duck.
" What in the name av layy lumberjaks are ya a-doin'?!" Delta exclaimed.
Aggie answered, "Duh! Carving a wood to show my honor for TrollsTopia. What was I supposed to do, wait till someone does it for me like a chump?"
"Yes!" the other Trolls yelled.
" Aggie, are ya sure ya'll okay?" Holly questioned in concern.
"Yeah, swell. Never better. Why do ya ask?" Aggie tried to choke her cry in.
"Well, ever since you admit your homesickness, you've been acting... Oddly peppy," Poppy replied.
"You know, it's okay to be sad that you missed your home and your family," Quincy told her.
"Aggie, we're here for you if you want to talk," Melody added worriedly.
"I don't want to talk, okay?" Aggie then started to sob, "I missed all of the things back home, my family, the parties they were celebrating, and my cat is gone and I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye."
"Aww, Aggie. Your family understands why you're not around with them, and I'm sure they missed you too," Essence pulled her closer for a hug... "Come on, let it all out," Then Aggie blew her nose on the Queen of Funk's dress.
"Maybe she should have kept some of that in," Barb muttered.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At mid-afternoon, the leaders, ambassadors and the delegates met up at the marketplace for snack time, but they still thought about Aggie.
"I feel terrible for Aggie, but I'm glad she's finally dealing with her homesickness," McJagger said.
"Note: Aggie really loves her family and the home where she was born and raised," Laguna noted.
"I am sure that after her quick nap, she'll get better," Poppy assured.
But it's not exactly as Poppy expected as Aggie woke from her nap with her hair frizzy, and her face wrinkled with tears.
"Aggie? You look... Great,"
"Just um... I'm lookin' for tissues. Thought there might be some over here."
"Hey, Aggie, maybe taking a nap won't do the trick," Rhythm said.
"Yeah, maybe you should try your hobbies, like swimming..." Synth suggested.
But this made Aggie lift her head, "Swimming? My dad and my older brother taught me how to swim, even though they're not even Magic Techno Trolls."
"Okay, what about planting? You..." Cooper added.
"Plant?! Oh, my Aunt Anunciacion love to plan crops, and my cousins Annaliza and Sarah love to plant flowers!" Aggie exclaimed sadly.
"Oh, poor Aggie," Trollex embraced Aggie, and patted the back of her head, "Let me get you a hankie,"
"Hankie?! That's what I called handkerchief to my 2nd cousin Kaydee!" This made Aggie cry even more as she turned around, and sat on a small trunk, "WWAAAAHHH!"
"You couldn't have said tissue?" Val groaned.
"And you made her cry this time," Barb snickered, but Trollex scoffed at her.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake. The Trolls stopped what they were doing, and tried to keep still
"Uh, what's happening?" Melody asked while holding her sibling egg in her arms.
Just then, a giant plant grew from the ground, lifting up some Pop Trolls in the air like a beanstalk, and a few colorful flowers bloomed. More plants and flowers grew in random directions on the ground of Trollstopia, just the section of Pop Village. The trolls tried to watch their steps to avoid the upcoming growth of giant plants, but they got lifted from the ground.
"Aggie, your magic, they're still depending on your emotions!" Poppy screamed.
"I'm so sorry, guys. I was thinking about home and lost focus about my new magic," Aggie grunted in guilt.
"It's okay, Aggie! You just need to control!" Essence advised.
"Okay, control," Aggie nodded as she closed her eyes, and used her head to control her magic.
But instead of returning things back to normal, things just got even worse.
The Trolls who were running for their lives were suddenly and magically levitated into mid-air. Even the leaders, ambassadors and delegates were levitated uncontrollably and tried to get back down to the ground.
Delta used her rope to lasso a rock to keep herself from levitating further upwards. Val used her pigtails to lasso a bush with her pigtails while using her right arm to hold Melody, who used her free arms to hold her cousin's arm while carrying the egg with the other arm.
The giant plants began to grow as one of them grew from Branch's Bunker.
"My bunker!" Branch cried.
Suddenly, a green Country Troll tried to gallop in the air while levitating towards his leader and ambassador.
"Ms. Delta, Holly, the Country Corral, it was destroyed by earth column structures," he reported.
At Country Corral, massive earth column structures emerged from the ground rapidly as it destroyed every building above them, and the Country trolls galloped for their lives.
Then, a red Techno troll reported Trollex and Synth.
"Techno Lagoon's water surpassed the shore!"
In Techno Lagoon, the waves of the water surpassed, and started to flood the land.
A female Rock Troll with black hair tried to "swim" towards Barb, Val and Melody in panic.
"Rock Hollow was on fire... literally!"
Rock Hollow was surrounded with fire as the Rock Troll tried to put it off, but the fire got bigger and stronger, and the rock trolls fled.
The Trolls then felt strong winds blowing their hair. But when they looked up, they noticed Classical Crest was blown from the top of the tree.
"Classical crest was blown away!" The female Classical Trolls with blonde hair yelled while pointing at the blown away Classical Crest.
And then, a Funk Troll alerted his leader and ambassador.
"Vibe Town got brighter lights, and it's damaging everything in its path!"
The Vibe Town spaceship had bright lights from inside and shined through its windows. When the ship hovered in the air, the lights caused small fires on the trees, and ashes on the grass. The Trolls tried to dodge away so they wouldn't get burned.
The leaders then turned to Aggie, who was also levitating uncontrollably, "Control, Aggie! Control!"
"I'm trying! I'm trying!" Aggie yelled, squeezing her head.
Then Blues interrupted when she showed Quincy and Essence the tablet, "Your Majesties! You gotta see this!"
The tablet was revealed to be a monitor of the whole Troll Kingdom that alerted a warning with a flashing red triangle and exclamation point in it.
At the beach of Techno Reef, the ocean created a tsunami, bringing Techno Trolls along with it. In Volcano Rock City, the volcano erupted a huge wave of lava as the Rock Trolls were dragged away along with it. In Symphonyville, the strong wings developed there turned into a tornado as the Classical Trolls were sucked into it. In Lonesome Flats, the ground started to make a wave like the ocean as it brought some Country Trolls along the road. In Vibe City, the lights shined brighter than the city actually had. The light didn't affect the Funk trolls as they got used to their lights, but the lights beams were visible through the windows as it started burning its path. Somewhere in the hinterlands, the snowy mountain caused an avalanche, but doing downhill never stopped the snow from rolling down. Floating sharp crystals, red rose petals, and colorful mist and fog followed to the direction of the avalanche as well.
Back at trollsTopia, the monitor that Blues showed that the9 remaining elements of Aggie's powers were heading towards TrollsTopia.
"All of Aggie's magic manipulation is coming this way!" Rhythm exclaimed.
"Okay, you Magic Musical Trolls are so complicated to understand, especially with your magic and things," Dickory shouted,
This made Aggie feel bad because she was the cause of this chaos as Hickory slapped the back of his brother's head.
"Aggie, you got to control your emotions. You're still sad because you're homesick!" Trollzart called.
Aggie then cried even more, despite that she tried not to, "I tried to make myself better, okay?! I tried to be happy because I am happy to be here with you guys. I finally found friends I have always wanted... But I really miss my old home! As much as I love my new home here in Troll Kingdom, it's not the same as my old one in Harmonious Land, and I don't want to choose which was my real home."
The leaders then saw how sad Aggie had become. They never saw her so sad like this before. It's like she's living in misery, and she thought she was forced to choose her real home by herself. They saw how Aggie felt about her thoughts of loyalty, and feeling guilty of "betraying" her home, and got the whole Troll Kingdom destroyed because of her magic. They then saw the monitor that the disastrous elements were coming closer.
As much as the leaders wanted to save their kingdoms and their people, they couldn't help but look worriedly at Aggie, who felt so miserable about herself for both of her homes.
She then sobbed, "Nothing can make me feel better!"
Trollex couldn't just stand... or float, in this case, and let Aggie feel miserable. He attempted to float towards her, and placed a hand on her shoulder, "Aggie, it's okay, we're here for you," Aggie turned around, and Trollex gave her a comforting hug, "We didn't mean to make you feel bad. But we know you didn't mean all of this to happen. But, just to let you know, we're here for you, and we would never make you feel like you're making big mistakes of your life,"
When Poppy saw this, she joined in into the hug, "Aggie, we would never blame you, even if you want to choose, and if you missed your home, we understand you,"
Then, the rest of the leaders gathered together for a group hug, except for Trollzart since Classical Trolls still don't hug, but he rather being close to the group.
"Ya'll nahwt the only one, sugar. We done missed our home too," Holly admitted as they joined the group hug.
"And we hide it because we want to show how much we're happy living in our new home," Synth added.
Then the rest ambassadors joined in.
"Honestly..., I got homesick too, and I also wanted to go back home," Val confessed.
"Me too," Melody said while holding the egg with one are,
"Even though TrollsTopia feels like home, we would never replace our old homes in our hearts," said McJagger.
"Ayn' ya shouldn't think that there you replacing y'all's awful old home with ours. It's okay ta have two homes," Gust added.
"Ayn' it's okay ta have awful new friends here, even if we're frawum different places," Buckaroo patted Aggie's back
"Aggie, we're here to comfort you whenever you miss home, and with your new magic, we're here to help you control them." Quincy assured the Magic Musical Troll.
When every Troll shared their group hug with Aggie, the Magic Musical Troll felt the love and comfort around their friend, and felt that the ambassadors and delegates were also homesick. She wasn't the only one who hid her feelings of homesickness. Seeing everyone around her and feeling their made Aggie feel that she was safe to let out her emotions, and feel sad of missing her home. She didn't feel alone anymore. She exhaled at her last cry, and smiled.
When the elements arrived in TrollsTopia, they all stopped at their paths, partially destroying the place. The water that caused the tsunami dried down with some Techno Trolls revealed themselves, a little hurt but fine. The lava from Volcano Rock City cooled down when Aggie's magic stopped controlling the lava, putting some Rock Trolls down, even king Thrash, who was having a good time during the lava flow. The tornado then disappeared freeing the Classical Trolls. The wave of land that carried some Country Trolls stopped. Vibe City halted above Trollstopia, and the brightness of its lights slowly dimmed. The avalanche of snow also stopped, and quickly melted with the red rose petals and crystals turned lifeless, and the colorful fog and mist disappeared into thin air.
Lastly, the magic of levitation faded away, making the Trolls halted in mid-air before falling down and screaming. Luckily, Aggie, who had controlled slightly of her magic, used her telekinesis to slowly put all of the falling Trolls down on their feet back on the ground.
"That... was awesome," Val complimented as the rest of the Trolls applauded for Aggie, making the Magic Musical Troll blush.
"Woo! Let's do that again!" Gomdori cheered.
"NO!" All of the Trolls yelled at her, as the yellow K-Pop Troll shrunk in silence.
The leaders then looked around, realizing that the Trolls from other 5 kingdoms were brought to TrollsTopia by Aggie's uncontrolled magic.
"Dad!" Barb noticed her father on the dried magma as she rushed to him, "What are you doing here?"
King Thrash drove his wheelchair down to the ground, "The volcano erupted, and, woo! What a ride!"
"That was me, King Thrash," Aggie stepped in beside Barb, "Sorry."
"No problem, little one. I got one heck of a rockin' ride!" the former King of Rock roared as Barb chuckled while hugging her father.
Then, another Troll groaned from that lava ride. She's a middle-aged Rock Troll who Val and Melody knew.
Mom!" Melody screamed happily, and rushed to her mother, still holding the egg.
"Aunt Mal!" Val followed behind.
"Hey, you two," Mal embraced her daughter, niece, and the egg.
Then, there were gasps from Rhythm and Blues when they saw their three old friends, Big J, Little J and Medium J when they got out of Vibe City after the engineers informed Quincy and Essence about the malfunctioning of the ship.
"We can't believe you're all here!" Blues shouted with full of happiness as she and Rhythm rushed towards their friend and hugged them for real.
Buckaroo then galloped where the Country Trolls from Lonesome Flats were dragged by Aggie's earth magic, and saw her sister and nephew. She opened her arms, and embraced them. Most of the Trolls in TrollsTopia were happy to reunite with their friends and family they were carried by Aggie's magic.
Aggie watched how every Troll reunited with their loved ones from back home. She was so happy to see her friends happily hugging their loved ones. But, at the same time, she felt sad that she's the only one who hasn't reunited with her family yet. Her magic did do her friends a favor, but not to herself.
"Well, well, what do you know?" Poppy chuckled, "Your magic accidentally brought the slice of home for each troll in trollsTopia"
"Yeah... it's great," Aggie frowned.
"Oh, and I forgot to return this to you," the Queen of Pop took out the photo album from her hair, and handed it to Aggie,"
"Thanks," the Magic Musical Troll said before flying in the direction of her pod.
Poppy just watched a sad Aggie fly, realized the Master of All Music wasn't so happy yet.
"I guess we have a lot of cleaning up around here!" Branch announced as he pulled out a broom and started swiping.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the day was almost over, and the Trolls were still cleaning the mess Aggie accidentally made with her magic, Aggie was in her pod, grounding herself for the day. She felt tired of feeling sad, and her magic wore her energy off. While she was resting on the couch, she looked at the photos of her life in Harmonious Land, and with her family, including her cat.
Then, the leaders and ambassadors then came in her pod, wanting to check on her.
"Aggie?" Barb knocked on the wall first to alert her, and Aggie put her photo album down
"We are so sorry," Lownote apologized.
"When we figured ya was homesik, we done decided ta make ya cry, but we didn't mean ta upset ya." Holly added.
"We were trying to make you feel better." Poppy explained
Aggie then cried with a broken voice, "Nothing can still make me feel better. I just don't think I can do this anymore."
"If you aren't up to continue your duties as the Master of All Music, don't worry. We can handle everything," Quincy told her.
"Yeah, take all the time you need," Synth suggested
"And if you need to cry, this dress is already ruined. So snot 'em if you got 'em," Essence opened up for Aggie to blow on her dress.
"I'm not just talking about my duties," Aggie stood up, and faced her friends, "Guys, I'm sorry, but... I'm leaving."
"Leaving where? You can live with us Rock Trolls if you want," Barb said.
"No, you should live with us," Trollzart suggested.
"I think she's comfortable living in the water," Trollex smirked.
"No, I mean..." Aggie took a deep breath before correcting them, "I'm leaving Troll Kingdom."
"What?!" Dante gasped.
"No!" Val exclaimed.
"You can't leave!" Branch added
"I can't stay. I just want to go home," Aggie then left her friends, going up to her bedroom to start packing.
"I can't believe Aggie is leaving us... or me," Trollex frowned.
"I can't believe we're losing the only master of the whole Troll Kingdom," Barb groaned.
"Oh, Barb, I know you're upset, but there are other good teachers here, right?" Branch then glanced at Poppy, who blushed that her boyfriend complimented her as a good teacher.
"You're right, boy toy," the Queen of Rock said, then turned to her ambassador, "Val, you're also the best!"
Poppy just made a deadpan stare.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, all the Trolls of TrollsTopia and the other Trolls that were dragged in came to the town center when Poppy called for an announcement.
Trolls, thank you all so much for being here at this time being," she announced at the giant mushroom stage as the other leaders and ambassadors were behind her.
"What's wrong, Queen Poppy?" Leglsy stretched her legs to lift her body from behind the crowd.
"I would like to inform you that Master Aggie of All Music... is leaving Troll Kingdom," declared Poppy, "She wants to go back to her home."
All of the Trolls gasped, and murmured sadly in disbleief. Their Master and only powerful Magic Troll is leaving.
"Queen Barb, what did you do?" Melody accused the Rock Queen.
"Nothing this time! I swear!" Barb shrugged.
"Great, ferst mowst ov our homes done got done destroyed, ayn' now we're gunna lose our only Magik Musical Troll in the whowwl kingdom?!" Gust groaned, stomping his foot.
"Aggie's packing her bags to leave today," Trollex added the announcement.
"Ayn' she ken't stop a-cryin'. She's probably booger-blasted ever' dress Essence owns by now," Delta reported.
"I just don't know what I'm going to do without her," Essence frowned.
"A lot less laundry, that's for sure," Val guessed.
"Note: The whole Troll Kingdom just won't be the same without Aggie," Laguna said when she stepped out of the crowd..
"We must try and convince her to stay," Demo suggested in front of the crowd.
"Look, guys, I don't want to lose Aggie either. But if she has to leave in order to get through this, then we have to support her," Lownote explained.
"Lownote's right. If this is what Aggie needs, then we should let her go," Branch agreed.
"So we are to sit around and do nothing?" Synth inquired.
"No, we just have to do something else to support her," Holly concluded.
"Like what?" Minuet asked from the crowd.
Trollex started to think as he remembered what Aggie told him about her journey, "I don't think Aggie should go home all on her own," he spoke, "It took her two weeks by foot to travel from her home to hear. She encountered a lot of dangerous stuff. She told me that while we're still lost outside the border of Troll Kingdom. It would be the same if she goes by flight."
"You're right, Trollex. We shouldn't let Aggie go alone on this. We need to accompany her on her journey home," Poppy said.
This made the crowd of Trolls gasp as they started to think if they were right about their suspicions of the Pop Queen's words.
"Wait!" Biggie exclaimed.
"Poppy," DJ Suki continued.
"You don't mean..." Guy Diamond added.
"That's right! We're going to... dramatic pause..." Poppy paused for 3 second before continuing, "Harmonious Land!"

So, this is the season finale of my version of TrollsTopia. Special thanks to these authors in the credits. Thank you, MasterClass60 (Fanfiction.Net) for borrowing three of your OCs, helping me the songs, and most of the story ideas. Thank you, TU4QU0I53T4IAN6L3 (Fanfiction.Net), for your special reviews as they motivated me to keep writing. Thank you, dromerosonic777 (Fanfiction.Net), for helping me with my new ship name. Thank you also RVengerOfficial and Princessb237 for borrowing your OCs and helping me with story ideas. And thank you Sandrastar1 and CelineLembke for story requests.
Some of my story ideas didn't belong to me as I got the concepts from the original TrollsTopia series and an old Disney sitcom, That's So Raven.
The songs don't belong to me.
In this chapter, Just The Way You Are (Glee Version) by Bruno Mars doesn't belong to me.
The end credits showed the voice actors and actresses, and possible actors and actresses for the OCs of the entire season 1.
The story of the Trolls isn't over as they continue their adventure for season 2 in the Magic Musical Trolls' home land, Harmonious Land. Let's hope the original season 2 of TrollsTopia will come soon.
Until next time, everyone. Thank you, have fun, and I hope you all enjoyed my story so far. See you real soon.
(Bonus chapters coming soon)
