Yes! I managed to finish this chapter so soon!

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

The next morning, Poppy went to the other leaders' pods one-by-one to wake them up, and advised to meet her again in her own pod.

14 minutes later.

Quincy, Essence, Delta, Trollzart, Trollex, Beat, and Aggie entered Poppy's pod with their sleepy eyes.

"Oh good! You guys are here!" Poppy exclaimed.

"Why do you have to wake us up so darn early?!" Delta snapped from exhaustion.

"Because Barb and I stayed up all night making Branch's crown!" The Queen of Pop explained.

Barb has her head on the table, feeling sleepy after helping Poppy make a crown all night, "I don't want to get involved in this, but, as queen, I have a fellow queen in need. It's my duty now."

"And I woke you guys up early because I want you to see Branch's crown," Poppy pulled the cover away, revealing the crown.

Branch's crown is shiny gold with three gems that look exactly like the Branch's Troll Gem, but smaller.

The bright glow caused the other 4 leaders and the Beat Drop Button fish to snap awake from tiredness, almost blinded by the light,"Ooooooooohhhhhh."

They all came closer to the crown, and stared at it with Poppy smiling while staring at what she and Barb made.

"So shiny!" Aggie chanted.

Quincy poked the crown to evaluate, "65% gold, but it's better."

"It is perfect, Poppy," Trollzart commented.

"A crown fit for a king," Delta added.

"Not to be rude, but why can't use your dad's crown?" Trollex asked.

"Because... it's my dad's. I want to keep him his own crown as a reminder of how he saved all of us from the bergens," Poppy replied.

Aggie nodded and shrugged, "You got a point. Every king has something to remind him about his greatest achievement."

"Exactly! Now I have to get this crown to a safe place for the ceremony later," Poppy carried the crown in her hands, and slowly walked towards the door.

"Uh, Poppy, you should give us the crown. We know how to keep it safe," Essence suggested.

Poppy turned to the Queen of Pop, "Don't worry. I'm going to borrow Dad's box where he kept his crown. I'm going to use it for the ceremony."

Before turning back to the door, Cooper popped his head in and shouted, "Hey, guys!"

"Aah!" This startled Poppy, and accidentally threw the crown backwards, "The crown!"

Barb was alerted as she jumped from the chair, and opened her arms to catch the crown, "I got it!" But the crown hit her nose, causing her to exclaim in pain, and cover her nose.

The crown then flew towards Beat.

"No, I got it!" The Beat Drop Button fish almost had it, but the crown bumped into him, causing him to push backwards, and the crown bounced from him.

Trollex caught Beat in time in his arms.

Quincy and Essence tried to catch the flying crown, but they bumped into each other, and the crown flew over towards Delta. Delta almost got it though, but it bounced on her forehead. That was like a sting on her head. Then, the crown flew towards Aggie.

Aggie raised her arms to catch the crown, "I got it! I got it!" But her fingers accidentally flipped the crown to the other direction, "I don't get it!"

Lastly, Trollzart tried to catch the crown, but he missed, causing it to fly out of the window.

"NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" In slow motion, the leaders shouted as they watched the crown fall.

The crown fell on a few branches of the tree, causing some of the small pieces of it shattered until it reached the ground.

The Trolls and the Beat Drop Button fish went down to see the broken crown. Only the pointy ones were shattered a little.

"I mean, there might be hope," Cooper said positively.

Then, a branch fell on the crown, shattering it into pieces.

They all gasped in horror.

"I mean, it might be okay," Cooper said again.

But then, a bird fell on the branch and the crown, shattering it even more.

They gasped again

"I mean..."

Before Cooper can say again, Barb, Delta, Trollzart, Trollex and Aggie shouted at him to stop. "Cooper!"

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!" Poppy ran over to the shattered crown, shooing the bird and throwing the branch away, "I ruined Branch's crown!" She knelt down sadly, and gathered the shattered pieces of the crown, "How can I crown him king without a crown?"

When the other leaders came closer towards Poppy to comfort her, Aggie patted her hair, and said, "Don't worry, Poppy. We can make Branch a new crown."

"How? The ceremony is in few hours, and I don't think we have enough time to make a new crown," Poppy cried as she grasped on the shattering pieces.

"Hmm...," Aggie's brain worked like a spinning gear, then a light bulb appeared on her head, and she turned it off to save energy, "I have an idea, but I need everyone's help."

"Yes! Anything!" Poppy begged.

Unexpectedly, Aggie took Poppy's crown from her head, "I need your crown for that."

"Hey!"

"Don't worry, I'll return it. I won't damage it or something. We have to do this back in the pod."

When the other leaders and Beat followed Aggie back to the pod, Essence stayed with Cooper, and told him, "Son, please, stay out of trouble. We'll see you later at the ceremony."

Cooper nodded and smiled, "Okay, Mom."

Essence kissed her son's forehead before following her husband and her fellow leaders.

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

The leaders head back to Poppy's pod. They placed the materials Aggie needed to make a new crown. There are leaves, twigs, vines, strings, and a glue gun.

Aggie started working on the crown. Looking back and forth on Poppy's crown, she knew exactly what Branch's crown would look like. Aggie measured Poppy's head with a tape measure. She pulled one of Beat's small arms to make him glow brighter as he needed him as her light. She put the leaves together by contrast color: light green, green, and dark green. She tied the strings and vines together, making the base of the crown. She then used a glue gun for the leaves.

As she continued, Essence wiped the sweat off of Aggie's forehead as her fellow leaders watched.

Lastly, Aggie put the twigs between the layers of the leaves, putting some stick glue at the end, just in case to avoid falling apart. She exhaled from all that work, and slouched her body on the chair, "Okay... It's all done,"

The leaders then stared at the new crown as they had their jaws dropped in amazed.

"Aggie, it's... it's beautiful." Poppy whispered.

"It's... much better than the first one," Barn smiled

"And its theme, it really matches Branch," Trollex nodded

"Aggie, it's perfect!" Poppy hugged Aggie thankfully, "How could I ever repay you?"

"Oh, no need," Aggie raised her hand, "It's on the house. Now, we need to keep this crown safe for the coronation."

When Poppy grabbed the crown and wanted to keep it safe, she realized she was careless the last time she held the old crown. This time, she handed it to Essence, "I think you can keep this safe."

Essence held the crown gently, and smiled at the young Queen of Pop, "Thank you, Poppy."

Suddenly, Poppy's Hug Time bracelet chimed, "It's Hug time," she gasped in realization, "That means, the coronation is in the next hour, and Branch will get up soon! This should be a surprise."

"Don't worry, I'll keep him from coming out of his bunker!" Aggie stood up, and zoomed out of the pod.

The leaders and Beat watched Aggie below, running to the direction where Branch's bunker is.

"Aggie, you don't need to do that!" called Aggie.

"Don't worry, I got this!" The Magic Musical Troll shouted back before she was out of sight

They just watched Aggie go in silent... until Barb broke it.

"You're a lucky Troll, Trollex," She said, making Trollex sighed dreamingly for Aggie as small pixelated hearts came out of his head.

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

Branch woke up happily from his bed. He got up, got some coffee from the coffee maker, and drank it up from his mug. He removed his robe, and dressed up for the day. When he used the elevator rift to get out, he noticed that his door won't open.

"What the-?" Branch tried to push it open, but it appeared to be stuck, "Hey, what's going on?!"

Outside, it is revealed that Aggie sat on the door to keep Branch from coming out.

"Hey! Is somebody out there?!" He called but Aggie laughed quietly. She can do this all day.

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

Later, before the Coronation ceremony started, the Trolls placed themselves on their seats randomly. They are not divided by tribe this time. They can sit besides with other tribes.

"I'm so excited. Branch is gonna be king!" Guy Diamond shook in excitement.

"I knew he and Aunt Poppy are perfect together," Tiny Diamond said, coming out from his father's hair.

"I gotta tell ya, we're going to obey that Troll soon," DJ Suki teased.

"He may be a party pooper sometimes, but he knows what's best for us Pop Trolls," Satin smiled.

"We never had a coronation before..., because we don't have royalties back home," Holly explained.

"That last coronation we attended was King Trollex's," Laguna said, "He was so young to be king, he didn't know what to do. Only he does is keeping up the rave of the whole Techno Reef."

Suddenly, Poppy ran towards the group as she had her ceremonial garb, "Satin, Chenille, there you are. I need you to do something."

Satin sat up, feeling determined, "We're on it, Poppy!"

Followed by Chenille, "What should we do?!"

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

At the back of the stage behind the curtain, Poppy took a peek to search for Branch in the crowd, but he was nowhere to be seen.

"Branch isn't here yet?"

"Wow, Aggie kept him busier than we thought," Barn chuckled, but she cleared her throat, and called two groups of bounty hunters that Branch befriended, "K-Pop, Reggaeton!" The K-Pop Gang and the Reggaeton Trolls ran at the back of the stage, and stood in front of Barb, "I need you to tell Aggie the coronation is ready, and get Branch here."

The two groups of bounty hunters chatted all the way out of the backstage to search for Aggie and Branch.

Barb smiled confidently while Poppy looked confused, "Where did you even get them?"
