Night of a Thousand Questions

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 the evening, Aggie was in her pod sleeping early this time. Val was hosting her first sleepover, with Melody's help, and she wasn't there. Probably because she didn't want to come in another sleepover, not because she missed it and felt tired after visiting Vibe City

Aggie woke up in the middle of the night as she felt her mouth was dry, and her throat made her cough

"I need some water," She said to herself as she hopped off her bed, and went down to the kitchen.

She took out a pitcher of water, and drank some cold water from the glass, "I hope the Trolls were having fun... without me... at Val and Melody's sleepover," She said sadly, but shrugged after that, "Eh, at least I have a good night sleep."

Suddenly, she felt she had a vision.

Poppy was sleepwalking near Branch's bunker, holding a stuffed glitter gator.

After the vision, Aggie giggled in excitement, "Oh, this is gonna be good!" She quickly drink the whole glass before quickly zooming out of her pod.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aggie went to the forest, and saw Poppy sleepwalking towards Branch's bunker.

"Aww, Poppy's sleepwalking. That is my vision! This is gonna be entertaining," Aggie laughed quietly as she took out some popcorn from her hair, and started eating some. But then, she noticed Synth, Dante, Holly, Val, and Melody were hiding behind the bushes at the other side, and Synth was pushed out from hiding, "Wait, what are they doing here? W-what is Synth doing?"

Aggie watched Synth talking to a sleepwalking Poppy as she gave her the stuffed glitter gator. Synth tossed the gator into the bush, and hesitantly hugged Poppy. Aggie has a sharp hearing as she overheard what they were saying, "Oh, Poppy's dreaming of Branch, and she thought Synth was Branch," She understood now. But then, the sleepwalking Poppy grabbed Synth head, and kissed him. Val, Holly, Dante and Melody's jaws dropped as Synth's eyes widened, and Aggie face-palmed, not wanting to see the whole thing, and hid behind the bushes, "Oh boy."

Aggie cringed at this memory. She knew Poppy thought she was kissing Brach in a dream, but Poppy herself didn't know she was kissing synth. This is so bad. Aggie knew the consequences about this, and she tried to keep her mouth shut before running back to her pod.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1 month later

Aggie strolled down the streets as she noticed Val, Melody, Synth, Holly, and Dante talking to each other about their secret after the sleepover they had.

"Hey, guys, do ya'll have fun at your sleepover last month?" Aggie greeted.

"Yep," Melody nodded.

"Of course," Dante said.

"Naw one's a-hurtin' anyone," Holly answered

"Oh good, because I heard you guys have fun at the sleepover a month ago, you still look so exhausted," the Magic Musical Troll grinned.

"Come on, Aggie, Trolls can be exhausted even taking a full-time sleep," Val said

"Yeah, and that's a cute little stuffed glitter gator you got there, Mel. Why are you hugging so tightly?" Aggie pointed the stuffed animal in Melody's arms.

Melody realized she still held her stuffed animals as she held it tightly, "I... I just love this toy. It's my favorite."

"Okay, I understand that. I have a stuffed animal of my own back home. I also forgot to bring it with me," Aggie then moved to Synth as she placed both her hands on his shoulders, "And, Synth, my favorite future bro-in-law!"

"You... you just call me future bro-in-law? And you're not irritated?" Synth asked confusingly.

"Why would I? I just realized that you're totally gonna be my bro-in-law someday, but not too soon because I'm not ready, but even if Trollex and I won't get married yet, you'll never know, you'll always be one of my best friends, and I love you as my very own twin brother veeeery much," Aggie explained with a sheepish grin.

Val, Melody, Holly, Dante and Synth were a little confused by Aggie's antics this morning, but suddenly they remembered what happened last month, and they puzzled Aggie's words together.

"What did you know?!" Melody shouted.

Realizing that her mouth kept on talking, Aggie groaned as admitted she's not good at keeping this kind of secret, "Okay, okay, I can't take this anymore! You know I'm not a very good liar, and not good at keeping all secrets. Remember at the night of your sleepover, and I saw... everything."

Everyone gasped, feeling shocked that Aggie knew what happened.

"Done y'all have ayy vision about it last mownth?" Holly asked.

"No, I only had a vision that Poppy was sleepwalking. I'm interested in watching Trolls sleepwalk, so I went out, and watched Poppy sleepwalking, and ... all of what happened that night."

Synth then fell into his knees, and begged Aggie, putting his hands together like he was praying, "Aggie, please! Don't tell Dubstep about this or he'll kill me!"

"Synth, Branch is your friend, I'm sure he's not gonna kill you," Aggie pulled synth to get up on his fins.

"Yeah, but when it comes to Poppy," the Techno ambassador cried, "He'll be furious! Hey, I know Poppy dreamt of Dubstep, and she thought I'm him, but the real world doesn't change that! So please, don't tell him!"

"Fine, I won't tell him. I think I'm able to keep this as a secret," Aggie smiled confidently.

"Really? You couldn't even keep your mouth shut when you talked to us a minute ago!" Val pointed, "Try not to tell Branch about this."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I will not tell him about what happened that night," the Master of All Music crossed her fingers on her lips as she was zipping her mouth close.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later, Aggie went to Branch's bunker to see him arranging the jars on his Curio Cabinet while standing on a small ladder.

"Hey, Branch, what's up?!" Aggie spoke, which surprised Branch a little as he stepped down the ladder, "Nothing! Something has to be up. Nothing's up. Stop grueling me!"

Branch looked suspiciously at Aggie, "You're acting weird. Well, I mean, weirder than normal for a Magic Musical Troll."

"Well, if anyone knows weird is you, right? I mean, everything that you think is not weird. Come on, do that, do that for me now. Say anything that is not weird!"

"I supposed I may say that on occasion but it's a perfect term of phrase. It's not weird."

"Ha! You said it! I love it when you say that!" Aggie laughed hysterically, which caused Branch to look at her more suspicious than a second ago "Oh man. Is it hot in here? STOP GRUELING ME!"

"Aggie, you're obviously uncomfortable about something, and I assume there is a reason you came over here. So, what is it?" the King of Pop asked.

"Not a secret I promise to keep that Poppy was sleepwalking and dreaming of you, and Synth acted as you that caused her to kiss him at the night of Val and Melody's sleepover last month. That's for sure," Aggie grinned nervously, until she realized he told the secret, "OH, DANG IT!"

"How do you successfully keep the secret that you're a psychic?!"

"I have no idea."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An hour later, at Rock Hollow, Val and Melody called Synth, Dante and Holly to talk about what happened last sleepover with Aggie knowing the truth, Aggie ran into the Rock Troll's headquarters as she shouted, "Synth, you gotta hide!"

"Why, what's wrong?" Synth asked.

Before Aggie could say, Branch showed up at the entrance of the rock Trolls' headquarters with a very angry face.

"You!" He pointed his finger at Synth

"I kinda accidentally told him," Aggie admitted, "I'm a very bad liar!"

"How do y'all successfully keep thay ...uhh secret that there you're ayy psychik?" Holly asked.

"He asked me the same, and I answered the same thing: I have no idea!" the Master of All Music answered.

Branch started to charge furiously at the Techno ambassador.

"Run, Synth, run!" Holly shouted as Synth started to run out of Rock Hollow. He took the back door to escape.

Val, Melody, Holly, Dante, and Aggie gave Synth some time to save himself by holding Branch back.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Synth ran as fast as he could through the forest as he came across Branch's boulder that sealed his bunker. Before he could escape, Branch was behind him, who broke free from the 5 Trolls gasped, showing that he was furious and felt betrayed.

Synth tried to run away again, but he felt so trapped and he didn't know where to escape as he leaned his back against the boulder.

Branch came towards Synth, yelling, "You, you betrayed me!"

"Bro, I have no interest on Poppy, honest! And she just kissed me because she thought I'm you in her dream!" Synth explained, begging for mercy.

"But that doesn't change the fact she kissed you for real in the real world!" Branch held up his fist, ready to punch the Techno ambassador as Synth closed his eyes, held his arm in front of his face, trying to shield himself, and winced in fear, awaiting to be beaten up. But when Branch saw how scared Synth is, he's anger faded away, stepped back and lowered his fist down, "Oh, who am I kidding?! I could never hurt you, Synth, even if I wanted to. You're my friend, my bro, and I would never hurt a friend."

The Techno Troll lowered his arm and slowly opened his eyes, "So, you forgive me?"

"Yeah. Besides, I already knew because Aggie and I went to Poppy first, and she explained to her everything what happened," the Pop King confessed.

*Flashback*

30 minutes earlier, Branch and Aggie went to Poppy's pod, and told her about her sleepwalking, dreaming about Branch, and accidentally thought she kissed Synth that night.

"So, that's pretty much what happened," Aggie rubbed her Classical arm.

Poppy was speechless. She didn't know what to say, especially that Branch was listening and knowing the whole thing. Now the Pop Queen felt guilty, "No wonder I dreamt of Branch and kissed him. It was so real. I kissed Synth?"

"Yeah, he played as Branch so you would finish your sleepwalking," the Magic Musical Troll answered.

Branch showed how sad he was as he felt so betrayed. But Poppy came to him, and held his hands, "Branch, I'm sorry, but I want you to know that I would never betray you. I love you. Only you, that would never change."

"But... but..." Branch was about to say something, but Poppy put a finger on his lips to stop him from talking.

"Of course I did that thing with Synth, but that would never change the way I feel about you. I love my dream about you, and I love you, Branch," To show how much she loved him, she kissed him romantically as Branch kissed her back, and wrapped his arms around her. Poppy pulled back, and asked, "Did that fix my mistake?"

"Well, not just yet," Branch smirked.

*End of Flashback*

Val, Melody, Holly, Dante, Aggie, and Poppy came just in time as they panted from looking for Branch and Synth, hoping they're not too late, but it seemed nothing worst happened.

"Yeah, I forgot to tell you that, but you could've seen the look on your face! Priceless! Oh wait you can!" Aggie laughed as she pulled a picture of Synth wincing in fear, "That's for teasing me and your brother about our relationship. In fact, I'm gonna send this to Trollex, and tell him the whole story about this!"

"You're going to pay for this, Aggie!" Synth shouted frustratingly, but he turned his head to Branch, "But if you guys talked about it, why do you want to attack me?"

"I just want you to confess, and I know you feel sorry so I want you to let them all out so you won't feel guilty," Branch explained, "Yes, I admit I'm hurt, but you're still my friend, Synth, and I believe Poppy said she loves me. So, I want to forget this whole thing ever happened."

"Me too," Melody nodded.

"So do ay," Holly added.

"I guess we all agree that nothing happened," Dante agreed.

"Except me. I'm going to remember this forever!" Aggie laughed while keeping the photo in her hair.

"Well, I guess everything settled," Poppy clapped both of her hands, and turned to Branch, Come on, Branch, let's go get some ice cream."

Poppy wrapped an arm around Branch's arm as they started walking to the village to get some ice cream. But before that, Branch glared at Synth, pointing two fingers from his own eyes to the Techno ambassador.

Synth grinned nervously while raising two thumbs.

When Poppy and Branch left, Aggie told Synth in guilt, "Sorry I let you down, Synth. I tried to protect you, but I failed. Some friend I am, huh?"

"Actually, you're really a good friend, Aggie. I know you couldn't keep this whole thing as a secret, and I can't either. You did do me a favor of telling Dubstep, and I think I got that feeling out of my system. So, thanks," Synth said.

"No problem, bro," Aggie fist-bumped with Synth.
