Meeting The Leaders
Day 6 of the Normal Troll's trip to Harmonious Land was getting started with a glorious morning, but at the moment, our view isn't on the Normal Trolls; it's actually somewhere else, in another beautiful spot in Harmonious Land.
Over in the city of Trollnila, which happened to serve as the capital of Harmonious Land, we see a large castle shining in the light that was emitted through the tiny holes on the ceiling. Inside the castle, in a meeting room, 6 Magic Musical Trolls were sitting together at a round table, in the middle of a meeting discussing something very important.
In one of the chairs sat a female Magic Funk Troll, who had pink hair tied in pigtails with golden scrunchies that had a star embroidery on them, red eyes, and was wearing a golden glittered dress. She addressed, "Good morning, fellow leaders. I am calling this meeting to order, because we have much to do before our big welcome program to welcome the Normal Troll leaders to Harmonious Land."
In the chair next to her on the left was a male Magic Rock Troll with dark red skin, red hair styled in a pompadour fashion, pink eyes, who was wearing a black leather jacket that was over a white shirt he wore underneath, and matching black pants, along with a pair of shades that rested on top of his head. He addressed, "President Trollazon, is this really necessary? I mean, not to sound rude, but we're just welcoming the leaders of the Normal Trolls to Harmonious Land; it's not like we're celebrating someone's 100th birthday."
In the chair next to Trollazon on the right was a female Magic Classical Troll with golden yellow glittered skin, creamy faded yellow hair, and yellow eyes, who wore a golden dress with a black conductor's jacket over it. She replied, saying, "Governor Rodrigo, we've discussed this; this is a really big deal! It's been such a long, long time since our tribe has gotten to interact with the Normal Trolls, and our ancestors have been waiting for that day to come for such a long time. We've been so lucky for that day to finally come now, and the best thing we can do to honor that is to welcome the Normal Trolls with open arms, just like what our ancestors would do."
In the chair next to Rodrigo was a male Magic Pop Troll with pink skin, hair in a little darker shade of pink, and pink eyes, who wore a blue shirt, teal shorts, and had a yellow flower resting on his right ear. He spoke up, saying, "Congresswoman Amelia is right, you know. Not only is this the perfect chance to welcome them, but we can also get to talk with the Normal Troll leaders and discuss the chance of both our tribe living together in harmony again."
In the chair next to Amelia was a male Magic Country Troll with orange skin, shirt red hair, a green horse tail (which was due to him dying his tail green), and blue eyes, who wore white pants, a brown cowboy's hat on his head, and a long sleeves green-checkered shirt. He added, "True y'all, ayn' ay definitely got ta agree with your statement, Chairman Bailey, but whaale ay don't want ta sound laake ayy pessiTrollstic, ay'm just hopin' that they don't up ayn' do somethin' laake what their ancestors did."
And in the last chair at the table was a female Magic Techno Troll with blue skin, a blue tailfin with dark blue pixels, long neon green hair that was styled in a long braid, and blue eyes, who wore a blue dress with a dark blue bottom that was decorated in pink, blue, and purple pixels, and on her head was a purple captain's hat with a white anchor symbol on it. She commented, "Mayor Travor, when are you gonna get over it? What happened was in the past, and we are right now in the present! And the present is a new slate, a new start, a new chance to make brand new ties with the Normal Trolls, especially the leaders! We have to take this chance while it's hot and pipin', I mean, it's not like another opportunity like this is ever gonna come, so, we need to really make a good impression with the chance we have now."
Trollazon replied, "Captain Raven makes a good point; if we are gonna help form these new ties with them, we need to show the Normal Trolls how harmonious and welcoming we can be. So, this welcome program has to go smoothly, with little to no bumps at all. Understood"?
All 6 leaders nodded in agreement, as Trollazon then pulled out a piece of paper and placed it in an envelope, sealing it, before she gave it to a male Magic Pop Troll that was also in the room, who went to deliver the envelope that she wanted to send out.
The delivery Troll walked all the way from Trollnila to Chairmaasin, where he plopped the envelope into the mailbox of the Mondejar household, before taking his leave.
A few minutes after the delivery Troll had left, Aggie had walked out to the front of her aunt's home and went to grab the mail. Bringing it back into the house, while she closed the door behind her, she checked to see what envelopes were there today, which were mainly bills for her aunts to pay. Then, there was one envelope that caught the MMT's attention: it was colorful and labeled to have come from Trollnila.
Aggie took careful note of the colorful envelope before she gasped, covering her mouth while she did so, as she recognized who had sent the letter.
Almost as fast as lightning, Aggie flew up the stairs and towards her bedroom, where her friends were currently hanging out with her.
In the bedroom, all of the Normal Trolls were simply relaxing and chilling out when they saw Aggie bust through the bedroom door, exclaiming, "Guys! Leeter! You! For! Need! Get! Read"!
Poppy quickly stood up from where she was sitting and walked up to Aggie, giggling while saying, "Aggie, calm down. Take a deep breath."
Aggie took a deep breath in and out to calm down and then said while using her Classical arm to wipe the sweat off her forehead, "Sorry, but you're not gonna believe this. But..but..,"
"But what," asked Demo.
"Is everything ok," added SDJ Suki.
Aggie nodded, explaining while showing the envelope to them, "This letter came and...it's for you guys."
"Us," asked Barb.
"As in, all of us," inquired Rhythm, while Blues added, "Or for our leaders"?
Aggie answered, "It's for the leaders and their ambassadors; it's an invite to a welcome program...from the leaders of Harmonious Land."
Aggie gave the envelope to Trollex, who opened it and read the letter out loud so everyone in the room could hear
To the leaders of the Troll Kingdom,
Word has spread about your arrival to Harmonious Land, and we are very excited to meet you in person. We'd love to invite you and your ambassadors to attend the special Welcome program that we are hosting in front of the Magicañang Palace today, so that we can give you a personal and extra special welcome to our homeland."
From,
the leaders of Harmonious Land.
Everyone gasped in surprise/awe, with Smidge commenting, "Oh my guh, that's awesome"!
"That's real naace ov them," commented Holly.
Val then suddenly realized something, asking, "Hold up, did you say "Leaders"? As in plural"?
Aggie nodded, saying, "Yep; see, here in Harmonious Land, we have 6 MMTs who help to run things all over the place and make sure we're all living happily, safely, and in harmony. There's a Chairman, or Chairowman if the selected MMT is a woman, then we have a Captain, followed by a Mayor, then a Governor, or Governess if the MMT selected is a female, afterward is the Congressman, or Congresswoman if the selected MMT is female and last but not least, we have the President. They all work together as one leadership team."
"Wow, that's truly remarkable to see 6 Magic Musical Trolls working together to rule over a land," commented Trollzart.
Barb added, "And on the plus side, this also now answers the question on if the leaders knew that we were here."
"They probably saw the viral post on Social Media," suggested Riff before adding, "Or something."
"I just hope we ain't in any trouble, yo. What if they heard about the stuff we've delt with so far here," asked a concerned Synth.
Poppy calmed Synth down by saying, "Hey, it says that they just want to welcome us with a Welcome program, so I didn't think we're in any trouble...I think. What is a program anyway"?
Aggie answered, "They're sort of like parties, except they're more focused on honoring Trolls, and we celebrate by partying all day long."
Beat happily stated, "Oh, so it's kind of like a rave"!
Aggie made a "so-so" gesture with her right hand, saying, "In a way, sort of."
Rhythm commented, "Either way, if it's a party, it sounds like it'll be loads of fun," while Blues added, "Especially with you guys getting to meet that Magic Musical Troll leaders"!
Aggie then mentioned while her eyes glistened in excitement, "Plus, this provides you guys, the leaders, the perfect chance to get to build brand new friendship ties with the leaders of Harmonious Land! And maybe that could heighten the chances of someday, my tribe and your tribes being able to reunite and live together in harmony again; that'd be a huge dream come true for all Magic Musical Trolls everywhere"!
Essence commented, "Aggie makes a good point there," while Quincy stated, "Plus, it'd also give us a chance to show the MMTs who aen't as fond of us yet that we aren't like our pst ancestors."
Delta replied, "Yeah, we know that the history of the past is still ayy very heated subject, but if ever'one sees us faw who we are ayn' how much we've changed, ayn' prove ta them that we ain't laake our ancestors, they maheet understand us bettuurr, ayn' even want ta learn mawe about us."
Poppy then felt an idea form in her head, saying, "Ooh, perhaps we can even discuss with the leaders about our Trollstopia project, and see if we might be able to convince them to someday be able to send over a Magic Musical Troll ambassador, or delegates, to visit"!
Branch was flowing what Poppy was saying, adding on, "And if they like it there in Trollstopia, that might give us a chance to be able to successfully reunite with the Magic Musical Trolls"!
At the sound of the word "Ambassador," Aggie bit her lip, hiding a secret frown since there was something about that term that seemed to sting close to her heart, but she didn't want to tell her friends yet.
Demo then commented, "You guys should definitely attend this welcome program! What other chance are you gonna get to meet the leaders and form a friendship with them before we leave for home tomorrow"?
Melody then reminded Demo, "Demo, remember, while yes, it would be awesome to build new ties with the leaders, let's not make it seem like we have to rush anything. After all, like Barb says, friendships take time and mutual respect, so we have to let things happen at their own pace. If the leaders want to be friends with us and choose to start building new ties with us, it's up to them."
All the leaders looked at one another, wanting to see if everyone was going to unanimously agree regarding attending the event.
Branch was the first to chime in, saying, "Well, sure, I think it'd be something fun to do."
"Precisely, plus, it'd be a fun event to attend to before we head home tomorrow," added Trollzart.
"Ay'm in," commented Delta.
"Eh, why not," stated Barb, who shrugged.
"Yeah, let's do it," commented Trollex excitedly.
"Think we should wear some fancy outfits for the occasion," asked Quincy.
Aggie answered, "I mean, you guys can dress up if you want, but if I'm being honest, I think that the best thing you guys can do is just be yourselves. All you need to do is just be the best that you can be, and you'll do just fine. You just need to act naturally, and not try to make a big spectacle," before eyeing at Poppy, saying, "Understand, Poppy? You know why I'm saying that, right"?
Poppy nodded, saying, "I know, Aggie; after what happened when I first presented Trollstopia, I learned from my mistake, and this time, I will just be more open and honest with the leaders when talking about Trollstopia."
Holly then commented, "Ayn' naw worries, y'all, count us in too"!
Val added, "Eh, I'll come too, but I'm not wearing anything too fancy."
Synth chuckled, saying, "Haha! This is gonna be so *imitates airhorn noises*"!
Low-Note Jones commented, "Low-Note Jones is in too, baby."
Dante mentioned, "I shall also be attending this program as well."
Trollex then wrapped his arm around Aggie, saying, "Of course, you'll be coming with us too, right Aggie"?
Aggie hesitantly replied, "Actually...I have to go to, uh...Funk Bar today"!
Hearing this, everyone was a little confused, with Stereo asking, "Really? How come"?
"Have any plans there today," added Guy Diamond inquisitvely.
Aggie answered while fiddling with her fingers behind her back, "Well, no, not anything "planned" per se. Just that, well, i'm not really a part of it since the leaders asked to meet you guys specifically, not me. Besides, it'll be a good way to pass time while you guys get acquainted with the leaders."
Everyone remebered what Aggie had told them during their trip to Music Area yesterday, and even witnessed it first-hand when Trollex was drunk and dizzy from having beverages at the bar. With that in mind, especially Trollex, he approached Aggie, putting a hand on her left shoulder, asking in concern, "Aggie, are you sure about this? you should come with us; besides, it'll give you the chance for the leaders to see you with your True Colors in person."
Aggie replied, saying, "It's ok; you guys go on ahead, I'll meet up with you guys back here later," before she flew out of the bedroom and exited the house.
"Ok, something's up with that MMT," commented Sid, who bluntly mentioned, "It's obvious she must be hiding something."
"If something's bothering her, maybe we should skip attending the event to make sure that she'd doing ok," suggested Trollzart.
"But Aggie does make a good point; us meeting the leaders is possibly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," added Poppy, who also commented, "And we're heading back home tomorrow, and a chance like this may not happen again, so we should take the chance while it's here."
"So...what are we gonna do," asked Barb.
Minuet then chimed in, saying, "Well, as fun as this welcome program sounds, and as much of an honor it would be to be greeting the leaders, it doesn't seem to appeal to my kind of party I enjoy. so, I can stay behind and help keep an eye on Aggie if that's ok."
Hearing this, the leaders thought that it was a good idea to have some of the other Trolls stay behind to help make sure Aggie was alright.
Quincy and Essence turned around and faced Rhythm, Blues, and McJagger, with Quincy saying, "You three follow Aggie and keep an eye out on her, in case she does something risky, ok"?
"You got it, your majesty," replied Blues.
"You can count on us," added Rhythm.
"We'll make sure she's safe," commented McJagger.
Trollex faced Stereo and Laguna, saying, "You two go as well since you're both clsoe to Aggie."
"I'll make sure my future sis-in-law is doing a'ight, Trollex," replied Stereo.
"We will do our very best, your majesty," commented Laguna.
Delta approached Buckaroo, saying, "Buckaroo, think y'all ken go too? As ayy detective, y'all would be great at keepin' ay eye out on huurr, plus, in case she maheet get ayy lil' out ov hand, y'all ken get hurr back ta huurr senses."
Buckaroo tipped her hat while saying, "Naw worries, Delta; ay got this."
Poppy then pulled sid over, asking, "Think you can help too, Sid"?
Sid scoffed, not feeling interested, but at the same time, he figured, if Aggie did get drunk, it'd probably be funny to see, making him reply, "Eh, not like I got anything better to do. Fine."
Before he went over to where Buckaroo, Rhythm, Blues, and McJagger was standing, he saw the Techno king shoot him a secret glare while geaturing an "I'm watching you, and I'll end you if you do ANYTHING," hand gesture at the disguised Flexi-Troll, making Sid nervously gulp and nod in understanding.
Melody then chimed in, saying, "I'll go to! I'll do anything to help make sure my best friend's ok"!
However, Val quickly stopped her, saying, "Hold it, Melly. I appreciate the gesture, but, Funk Bar's not the place for young, vulnerable Trolls. You know the kind of Trolls that'd go nuts all over you," which made all the Normal Trolls shoot a deadpanned glare at the fourth wall before looking back at each other.
Melody then said, "Well, Aggie and I are almost the same age, one. Two, I can blend in well with the other Magic Musical Trolls since I dress almost like them. Just let me tag along with the others; I promise I'm not gonna drink a drop of the beverages at Funk Bar. Please," while dropping on her knees in front of Val and begging her with glistening puppy eyes.
Val winced, trying to avoid falling for the look, as she groaned and facepalmed before saying, "Ok, fine, you can go, but please be careful. I don't want you to wind up like...you know...drunk. got it"?
Melody rolled her eyes, nodding while saying, "Got it, cuz."
Branch then asked everyone else, "For those of you who we didn't ask, do you guys all want to come attend the program with us"?
Everyone else all nodded in agreement, as they all made their preparations to head out to Trollnila for the welcome program.
In Funk Bar, many of the Magic Funk Trolls were hanging out, playing Funk Music and/or dancing to it, while watching the other Magic Funk Trolls playing their instruments. At the moment, Aggie was sitting on a park bench, near a juice stand where the manager of the stand was selling cherry juice.
By a bush not too far away from her, Buckaroo, McJagger, Rhythm, Blues, Melody, Laguna, and Sid were keeping an eye on Aggie, with Buckaroo sticking her head out of the bush while looking through a pair of binoculars. Melody's periscope was sticking up beside her, with the Pop/Rock Troll looking through it while behind the bush.
While watching, Buckaroo whispered, "The Puffalo's in the pen, ay repeat, the Puffalo's in the pen."
Sid then asked, "Uh, pardon me, but I thought she was a Magic Musical Troll"?
Buckaroo sighed and turned her head, replying to Sid, "That's code talk ay'm saying; it means Aggie is within our saheets, ayn' seems ta be doin' alraheet at the moment."
Sid then shrugged and asked, "Ok, but when is she gonna start drinking"?
Buckaroo pinched her eyes, replying, "The key ov us keepin' ay eye on hurr is ta make sure she DOESN'T drink, Sid"!
Stereo worryingly commented, "I sure hope Aggie is a'ight, because she seems so sad over there. I wonder what might be wrong."
Rhythm peeked her head out and saw Aggie sitting there, saying, "Whatever's up with Aggie must be something huge because she's not looking so happy like she was earlier."
Blues peeked her head out to see, asking, "You think something terri-ba-bad happened"?
McJagger peeked his head over Buckaroo to see, suggesting, "Maybe she's just in thought about something personal."
Buckaroo, seeing the three Funk Trolls reaching their heads out, whispered, "Ken y'all three put your heads back in? She's gonna see us"!
The three Funk Trolls did as so, while Laguna asked, "Note: what do you suppose we do to try and help Aggie"?
Melody answered, "Well, if something's upsetting her, maybe we just need to cheer her up. Sing a song, get her to dance, have some fun, and boom! We'll have Aggie smiling and feeling fine again! And maybe if she's better, she'll want to go see the leaders again"!
Everyone seemed to like that idea, with Rhythm saying, "Great plan, Mel," while Blues added, "It sounds super swell"!
McJagger added, "Plus, we are in Funk Bar, and Funk music always expels good vibes all over the place, and can make anyone feel all calm and groovy."
Sid then looked over the bush and saw something that made him comment, "Uh, yeah good plan, but uh, one small problem: she's gone."
Everyone quickly peeked their heads out and saw that the colorful MMT had disappeared, making them gasp in shock, as Buckaroo declared, "Oh my stars; Code Rainbow, y'all! Split up ayn' look"!
While outside, all of Aggie's friends were trying to find where Aggie went, inside the bar, Aggie was sitting at one of the booth seats and had a cup of cherry juice in her hand. While in her seat, Aggie was thinking about the leaders of Harmonious Land, and something that happened long ago in relation to them that was a very painful memory of hers, but she didn't want to talk about it or share it with any of her friends since it was very hard to talk about. Despite it being a very painful memory, she did want to not think about it so much since it happened last year, and she felt like she should move on from it since what happened was just the leaders simply doing their job; they couldn't help putting her in the spot she was in back then. With the juice in her hand and the feeling of wanting to forget what happened, Aggie gulped down the drink in her cup.
A few minutes later...
Aggie lifted her head up tiredly from the table as she started to wake up, with her vision blurry, as her friends, who were by the table she was sitting at, looked blurry too, and their voices sounded muffled.
"Aggie," asked Blues in concern.
"Aggie girl, you ok," asked Rhythm in concern.
"It's gonna be ok," stated McJagger in a reassuring voice.
"Is her face gonna stay that way," asked Sid, who saw the drunk expression on Aggie's face.
Aggie sat upright, holding a hand on her forehead, asking, "W-Wha...what happened"?
"Y'all must've had too many of them sugary drinks, ayn' its made y'all ayy bit tipsy," answered Buckaroo.
Aggie hiccuped a bit before saying with a drunk smile, "I-I'm fine, guys...r-really. N-no need to worry...I-I can just walk back to our f-f-riends."
Melody felt very concerned, saying, "Wow, I think she might be even more drunk than Trollex was yesterday."
"What are we gonna do, guys," Stereo asked in a panic.
Laguna suggested, "We have to get her to the leaders, our leaders, and see if we can get her to Techno Water Amusement Park and get her a bottle of water. That'll help her feel better in no time."
Buckaroo answered, "Good plan. Ay'll carry huurr back."
Aggie, however, tiredly stepped off from the booth, saying, still smiling all dizzy like, "N-N-No need..I-I can fly there...I-I'm as free as the bird," before trying to fly out of the bar. However, she was so dizzy, that she wound up hitting the doorframe and fell, but luckily, she fell onto McJagger's back, so she had a safe landing spot, much to McJagger's sudden shock from when he fell.
Rhythm then declared, "Ok, new plan: McJagger, can you carry Aggie on her back"?
McJagger struggled up to his feet, saying, "I can definitely do that."
Blues then added, "And we'll make sure she doesn't fall off while you walk, as we head over to Trollnila to find the leaders."
With that, McJagger did his best to keep his balance as he carried Aggie out of Funk Bar, while everyone else helped to make sure the dizzy MMT didn't fall off while they did so.
Back at the front of Magicañang Palace, the outside area was beautifully decorated, there was a beaming red carpet in the middle of the floor that led to a large hand-built stage where the leaders of Harmonious Land were currently standing on while a large crowd of MMTs gathered around the stage.
President Trollazon stepped forward, saying, "The time has come my fellow Magic Musical Trolls! Let us all make the Normal Troll leaders and their ambassadors feel welcomed, and if we are successful, we can be able to build brand new friendship ties with the Normal Trolls, just like our ancestors"!
The crowd all cheered excitedly as they soon stepped back so the red carpet was visible, and it gave a clear walking path up to the stage for the Normal Trolls, for once they arrive.
On cue, there was the sound of thunderous galloping coming up to the stage.
Mayor Travor stepped forward, saying, "Hear that, y'all? That there be the sound ov gallopin', but it ain't from two feet, but four! Ayn' that could only mean that the leadurr ov the Country Troll ayn' huurr ambassador is comin' raheet up ta greet us with ayy good ol' yeehaw"!
Delta, who was wearing a beautiful orange formal dress, and Holly, who was wearing the dress she wore during the Cutie Pageant, both galloped up to the stage, leaping up high.
"Yeehaw," shouted Holly.
"Howdy, y'all," declared Delta.
Both Normal Country Trolls landed onto the stage trotting up to the mayor.
Mayor Travor tilted his hat, saying, "Howdy, lil' ladies, it's an honor ta meet y'all. Ay'm Mayor Travor Eastburn, ayn' goin' by the news story on Social Media, y'all must be..."
Holly interrupted, saying, "Holly Darlin', country ambassador ov the Normal Country Trolls. Ayy real pleasure ta meet ya as well."
Delta then piped in, saying, "Ayn' ay'm Mayor Delta, the leaduurr ov the Normal Country Trolls back in Lonesome Flats. It's pretty excaatin' ta be meetin' ayy fellow mayor, though y'all help ta rule ovuurr ayy large city ayn' ay just run things in ayy small town."
Mayor Travor chuckled, saying, "Y'all just took the words raheet out ov my mouth."
Holly then said while wrapping her arms around Delta and Mayor Travor, "Selfie"!
She used her camera to take a selfie with Delta and Travor, who took a minute to soothe his eyes and recover from the blinding flash of light the camera produced.
"Ooh, that's ayy naace one; ay'll send y'all ayy copy," Holly commented while checking out how the picture went.
Delta then saw Clampers peek her head out, the mayor adding, "Ayn' up here's my niece, Clampers."
Clampers shook hands with the Magic Country Troll, saying, "Howdy"!
Mayor Travor replied, "Ayn' ayy big ol' howdy back ta ya. Let me show y'all where y'all will be sittin'," before leading Delta and Holly to a set of chairs, color coded for each Troll, where they both sat down in the two orange chairs provided.
Up next, there was the sound of Funk music approaching, which made the MMTs look up and see a small spaceship hovering just above them.
President Trollazon saw the ship approaching, saying, "Hear that? You feel good vibes flowing from hearing this hip and groovy Funk music playing? This just mean that the leaders and ambassador of the Funk Tribe has arrived"!
When it seemed to make it above the stage, it beamed down a purple light that allowed King Quincy and Queen Essence, and Low-Note Jones, to appear on stage. King Quincy was wearing a dark purple tuxedo with a matching top hat, and had even substituted his regular glasses for a glass monocle over his left eye. Essence was wearing a blue dress that was decorated with shiny glitter specks and had golden stars on it as well. Both their sons, Cooper and Prince D, were right by each of their parents' side, wearing black tuxedos, bowties, and matching top hats. Low-Note Jones was wearing a dark blue tuxedo, a red tie, and substituted his gold boa with a purple one.
President Trollazon stepped forward, saying, "Greetings, you two must be the leaders of the Funk Tribe."
Quincy bowed his head, saying, "Yes, and it's an honor to be meeting you as well."
Essence also bowed her head, saying, "We are very excited to be meeting you and your fellow leaders."
Cooper then stepped forward, saying, "Hi! I'm Cooper! Nice to meet you"!
Prince D stood beside his brother, saying, "This is my brother Cooper, and I'm Prince D. What's popping"?
Trollazon couldn't help but chuckle in amusement, saying, "Well, what's "popping" as you say, is that it's nice to be meeting you two as well. Are you by chance Quincy and Essence's children"?
Both Funk Trolls nodded as Cooper answered while walking up to Essence's side, "Yeah, they're our mom and dad"!
Essence gave Cooper a bunch of kisses on his cheek, covering it with blue lipstick, while Cooper, who was just enjoying being with his mom, smiled while saying, "Aww"!
"Awww," the crowd of Magic Musical Trolls said, thinking the mother-son scene was cute.
King Quincy commented while placing his front leg around Prince D, "Yep, and we're happy to be the proud parents of our sons."
Trollazon then approached Low-Note Jones, saying, "And you must be Low-Note Jones, the Funk ambassador, correct"?
Low-Note Jones chuckled and replied, "You got that, baby."
A lot of the female MMTs in the crowd all swooned over the male Normal Funk Troll's smooth voice.
Trollazon smiled, saying, "I'm President Trollazon Aquino, and speaking on behalf of all the Magic Musical Trolls in attendance today, we are all very happy to welcome you and your fellow friends to Harmonious Land. Please, let me show you to your seat."
Trollazon led the Funk leaders, and Low-Note Jones to a trio of purple seats for them to sit at, while Cooper and Prince D stood beside their parents.
"The President definitely seems very courteous," whispered Essence to Quincy.
"Plus, she seemed in awe when our sons introduced themselves to her; I wonder if she might be a parent too," replied Quincy quietly to Essence.
Up next, all the MMTs in the crowd noticed a fancy caterpillar limo approaching the far end of the red carpet, and there was Pop music playing on some of the speakers on the limo.
Chairman Bailey stepped forward, saying, "You can definitely hear, and feel, who's coming right up to us! With the type of music that always makes you feel so happy and want to dance the night, and day, away! I am happy to say that the leaders and ambassador of the Normal Pop Trolls have arrived"!
The door opened and allowed Branch to step out first before he escorted Poppy beside him, helping her out of the limo. Poppy was wearing a beautiful light blue flower-patterned dress, and on her head was a matching formal crown with a giant light blue flower on it. Branch was wearing, as his formal attire, a black tuxedo with a blue bowtie.
Biggie followed out of the limo, standing behind Poppy and Branch, and he was wearing a light blue tuxedo with an orange bowtie, and a black top hat on his head, while Mr. Dinkles, who he was holding in his right arm, was wearing a little top hat and matching orange bowtie.
Branch offered his arm to Poppy, saying, "Shall we, m'lady"?
Poppy blushed and nodded, weaving her arm into his arm, and they walked together up onto the stage, side by side together, with Biggie following them.
Chairman Bailey greeted them, saying, "Greetings! Welcome to Harmonious Land, you two! I am Chairman Bailey Uris! You both must be Queen Poppy and King Branch"!
Poppy and Branch both nodded, with Poppy saying as she offered a handshake, "Yesiree! We're so happy to meet you, sir"!
Chairman Bailey shook hands with Poppy while saying, "No need to call me sir, Poppy. I'm not one who likes being called sir or mister because it sounds so...masculine," and shuddered a bit, thinking the male terms sounded "strange."
"Well, it does sound a little masculine," replied Branch.
Bailey then approached Branch, shaking hands with him, saying, And it's an honor to be meeting you as well. Say, you're cute." while sounding a bit flirty in front of Branch.
Branch was more confused than he was nervous as he replied, "Uh, thank you, I think"?
Poppy then commented as she held Branch's hand, "Well, he's right about you being cute," and kissed Branch on the cheek, making him blush and smile sheepishly.
The crowd all said, "Awwwww," in awe of the two leaders' love being shown.
"So beautiful," Bailey commented as he wiped a stray happy tear from his eye before approaching Biggie and saying, "And you must be their ambassador, correct"?
Biggie nodded, saying, "Yes; I'm Biggie, and this is Mr. Dinkles," while showing off his pet worm.
"Awwwwwwwww, it's so cute," shouted Bailey in awe as he picked up the worm, adding, "It's like a cutie-patootie lil pet"!
"Mew," stated Mr. Dinkles, as Bailey gave the worm back to Biggie before declaring, "Let me show you guys to where you'll be sitting."
The chairman lead the Pop leaders and Biggie to their seats, as they all sat down.
"He seems nice," whispered Poppy to Branch.
"He honestly makes me a bit nervous," replied Branch quietly to Poppy.
"I thought his welcome greeting was very friendly," replied Biggie quietly.
Chairman Bailey rejoined with the other Harmonious Land leaders, whispering to them, "That Pop king is so adorable."
The other Harmonious Land leaders all quietly rolled their eyes in response, not wanting to make a scene in front of the crowd.
Suddenly, the sound of Classical music filled the air, and it sounded so beautiful.
Congresswoman Amelia flew up, hovering in the air, while she said, "And listen to that lovely Classical music; so carefree, fancy, and elegant! That must mean that the Normal Classical Troll leader and ambassador has arrived as well"!
Above the stage, Note Bugs swarmed the air, harmonizing a lovely tune, before they separated to the side, giving a clear path for Trollzart and Dante to appear and hover by the leaders. Trollzart was wearing a fancier version of his composer's jacket, while Dante was wearing the glittered version of his own jacket, the one he had when Holly struck the Glitter Rush fever through Country Corral, and he glittered his outfit for fun.
Trollzart and Dante both bowed in front of the Harmonious Land leaders, with Trollzart saying, "Salutations. I am Wolfgang Amadeus Trollzart, the head conductor and leader of the Classical Trolls."
Dante added, "And I'm Dante Crescendo, royal composer, right-hand Troll of Trollzart, and the lucky ambassador of the Classical Trolls."
Congresswoman Amelia both shook hands with the pair of Normal Classical Trolls, saying, "Salutations, the pair of you. I am Congresswoman Amelia Alejandre, and the honor is mine to be within your presence."
Dante then said, "Allow us to commemorate this special greeting with a special concerto that we have composed for this special occasion."
On cue, Trollzart and Dante raised their batons and waved them around, conducting the Note Bugs, who all harmonized a beautiful melody that impressed a lot of the MMTs, including the Magic Classical Trolls.
Amelia applauded them once the concerto was over, saying, "Bravo! Bravissima! That truly was a remarkable display of Classical music! I bow to your talents," and bowed in front of them.
Trollzart and Dante smiled, feeling very honored to have impressed the Congresswoman, as they took their seats with the other Normal Troll leaders.
"Naace job, y'all," Delta complimented quietly to the Classical Trolls.
"It took us three days to write," answered Dante quietly.
Before anyone could say anything else, the ground suddenly started to shake and thump, and a peculiar beating sound followed the thumping.
Captain Raven giggled, saying while taking her Captain's hat off and waving it around, "Sounds, and feels like, that special beat that makes you want to move your feet and matches your heart beat can only mean one thing! It appears that the time has come for the Normal Techno leader and ambassador to make their appearance and drop the beat for us"!
By a fountain that was beside where the crowd was, the water suddenly stopped the flow normally before it then unleashed a huge spout of water that seemed to hover in the air. The water spout then exploded, showing off Trollex and Synth, who both tail-fived one another with their tail fins, and were pumping their arms up and down in a raving motion, while Beat hovered beside them, with Techno music playing in the background. Trollex was wearing a fancy green neon tuxedo with a matching red tie, while Synth was wearing a white bow tie around his neck, white cuffs around his wrists, and was holding a glowing cane in his left hand. Bat was wearing a little black bowtie and top hat on his head.
"Hey, yo! What up, Magic Musical Trolls/What's up, all you Magic Musical Trolls," both Techno twins shouted excitedly in unison.
The crowd of MMTs cheered, especially the Magic Techno Trolls that floated around and jammed to the beat of the music.
Slowly, the water moved down so it could safely bring them to the stage to join the leaders.
Captain Raven placed her hat back on while saying, "So cool to meet you two! you both must be King Trollex and Prince Synth, and I'm gonna guess this little guy is Beat"!
Beat nodded, saying, "Hi"!
Trollex added, "And it's super cool to be meeting you as well, Ms. Captain Raven Cruz, correct"?
Synth mentioned, "Yeah, it's so *imitates airhorn noises* to meet ya"!
Captain Raven answered back, "Likewise! You should join a rave with us soon! We really turn it up with the music."
Synth was already excited, "Oh yeah, yo! We love to rave"!
She then led Trollex and Synth to their seats so they could sit by the other Normal Troll leaders.
Beat got comfy in Trollex's arms while Synth declared, "She's definitely a glowstick of energy, yo"!
Trollex replied back quietly, "Yeah, but is it mean, or is that hat...strange? I don't even wear one like that."
Governor Rodrigo was the last to announce the final Normal Troll leader, saying, "And last and definitely not least, we can't certainly forget to introduce the final Normal Troll leader! The energetic, rowdy, wild-living queen of the Normal Hard Rock Trolls, and her rocking ambassador"!
On cue, by the edge of the red carpet leading up to the stage, a fireball seemed to form, with two figures standing in the middle of the fire without getting burned. Once the flames dissipated, it showed Barb, who was wearing a black jumpsuit, and Val, who was wearing a dark red dress shredded at the ends, and her purple leather jacket over it, playing their guitars in unison before smashing their guitars together and sliding on their knees, making a Rocker's face and doing the Rock hand gestures with both of their hands.
After that fun display, they both got up and walked up onto the stage, greeting the governor, who said, "Greetings, ladies! No need for introductions, I can tell you both must be Queen Barb, and her right-hand Troll, Val Thundershock"!
Val chuckled, crossing her arms while saying, "You got that right, man"!
Barb fist-bumped with Rodrigo, saying, "And the feeling's mutual, man; we're super pumped to meet you too, Mr...uh..."
"Oh, sorry, where are my manners? I'm Governor Rodrigo Duarte. The way you both smashed your guitars were awesome"!
"Queen Barb answered back, "Thanks, it takes practice to really get it down. Say, I hear that you Magic Rock Trolls can throw some pretty epic rock concerts; care to rock out sometimes"?
Governor Rodrigo squealed while saying, "Heck yes"!
With that, all of the other Normal Troll leaders and the ambassadors got up and went to stand with Barb and Val Thundershock, as Trollazon came forward, with the other Harmonious Leaders standing behind her, while she said, "Your Majesties, words can't express our excitement of getting to be meeting you here in person! We have been waiting for this day for so long"!
"Really," asked Dante.
"Oh yes. For you see, our ancestors have been wishing for our tribes to come together and reunite, living as one nation of Trolls in perfect harmony again, but because of the tribes moving away and living in isolation, that fear of it happening again made us all scared it could occur again, which led us to build our society underground, hidden away for what felt like an eternity," explained Rodrigo.
"But now, our ancestor's wish seems laake it ken now come true 'cause y'all found us, ayn' our homeland," commented Mayor Travor.
"And the chance of us, both our tribes, living together in a more unified harmony, is brimming over the edge," exclaimed Raven, which the statement made the crowd of MMTs cheer excitedly.
"Well, speaking on behalf of all of us, we truly feel honored to be here," declared Quincy.
"Yeah, this place is so cool," exclaimed Cooper excitedly.
"Though, if we're bein' honest, y'all, we didn't just come here ta faand you guys," Delta admitted honestly.
"We came here because we were helping out a dear friend who lives here return home safe and sound," commented Poppy.
All 6 Harmonious Land leaders were surprised/amazed to hear that the Normal Trolls had been able to befriend one of their own kind, making Amelia comment, "Well, isn't that a pure delight, and quite the noble deed to do."
"That makes the chances of us getting to reunite grow even more," squealed Bailey.
Poppy was beaming at the chance of having both tribes getting to reunite, and opened her mouth to say something, with the plan of bringing up Trollstopia in mind.
But then, something made Poppy stop and think: when the Harmonious Land leaders mentioned how their ancestors were worried about another occurrence of isolation happening among them again, and since she was fully aware of how it had come to be, and the mistake her Pop ancestors made that caused it to happen in the first place, she didn't want to say anything that might seem like she was forcing things to happen right away; the Magic Musical Trolls had already built for themselves a well-rounded community brimming with harmony, and Trollstopia was still in its baby steps. She remembered a saying Branch once told her: you can bring a Kitty Critter to water, but you can't make him like it, and she didn't want to make the Magic Musical Trolls feel uncomfortable about being outside with them in Trollstopia, especially if some of them were still living in fear of the past. So, for now, she decided to keep quiet and wait for a better chance to bring it up.
The other Normal Troll leaders seemed to notice this as they were surprised to see Poppy not bringing up the idea of Trollstopia, but seeing that inquisitive/pondering look on her face, they could tell what her reason was, and agreed, silently, along with her.
Trollazon then asked, "How long have you all been staying here since your arrival"?
Trollzart replied, "Approximately...5 days to be exact."
All 6 Harmonious Land leaders looked at one another with small frowns because this meant that their guests only had a small amount of time left to spend here in Harmonious Land before they have to go back home tomorrow, and there wasn't gonna even be enough time to get to know them more and get to forge the ties they've been itching to make with the leaders of the Troll Kingdom.
The Normal Troll leaders seemed to catch on to their sadness as Essence then spoke up, saying, "But hey, even with the short amount of time we have left here, we really enjoy getting to spend time in Harmonious Land."
"Yeah, it's really rocking," Barb commented with a chuckle, with Val fist-bumping with the queen of Rock in agreement.
Rodrigo chuckled, saying, "You know it"!
"Though we do wish y'all could stay longuurr; but the hole ta Harmonious Land's closin' tomorrow, since tomorrow's the seventh day, ayn' if y'all aren't on your way by then, y'all will be trapped here faw ayy whole month."
"And we really wish we can stay, but we have our homelands to take care of back up on the surface," Branch mentioned.
"And we also have homes back up on the surface we have to attend to as well," Low-Note Jones added.
Trollazon then spoke up, saying with a smile, "but still, we do wish that you all get to enjoy every minute of your visit here."
"You bet we are! This place is so...*imitates airhorn noises," exclaimed Synth happily.
"Adding onto my brother's statement, he is right, this place is so..magical," Trollex commented in wonder.
"Ayn' y'all are ayy blast ta hang with," Holly complimented at the leaders of Harmonious Land and the crowd of MMTs, who all broke into cheers and applause, giving big warm welcomes to the Normal Troll leaders and their ambassadors.
"Awww, you guys are too kind," Amelia replied while the leaders felt touched by Holly's kind words.
Barb then stepped towards the crowd, saying, "Hey, all you MMTs, any one want to come up and tell us all about your really awesome Harmonious Land leaders"?!
All of the Normal Trolls who came with the leaders and ambassadors were in the audience were cheering too along with the crowd.
A lot of MMTs were ready to raise their hands in agreement and say something when all of a sudden...a loud BURP interrupted the moment.
Everyone on stage looked at one another, wondering who was it that had "let it out" like that, and they weren't the only ones, as the crowd was looking around too.
Suddenly, someone seemed to notice something, and the whole crowd split apart to give way to the source of the burp: Aggie, who was still dizzy and feeling the effects of drinking too many of the sugary drinks at Funk Bar, still laying/riding on McJagger's back, with the Funk Troll struggling to stay upright and keeping his balance carrying her, and Rhythm, Blues, Stereo, Sid, Buckaroo, Melody, and Laguna were making sure she didn't fall.
Aggie's friends all turned their heads and gasped in shock when they saw Aggie in this state, feeling worried about her, and they weren't alone.
The Normal Troll leaders and ambassadors, out of worry for their friend, shouted in shock, "Aggie"?!
The Magic Musical Troll leaders also saw Aggie and, immediately recognizing her, shouted, "Ms. Galido"?!
"You know her," both sides of Troll leaders asked in unison.
"Wait, how do you all know her," asked Chairman Bailey.
Prince D replied, "Aggie was the friend that we were talking about earlier that we were helping to escort home," explained Trollzart.
"She originally came to us after she had run away, looking for our help in earning her True Colors by helping her choose her Music in Life."
Trollex added, "She's the reason why we all chose to stay here in Harmonious Land for the week because she's one of our closest friends, and we always want to be there for her through thick and thin, especially during this trip."
"Now that that answuurrs that there queshun, how do y'all know huurr," Delta asked the Harmonious Land leaders.
Captain Raven answered, "Truth is, she's our ambassador in training! We've been training her for the past two years to become our official ambassador and represent our tribe"!
"Ambassador," the Normal Troll leaders and ambassadors exclaimed in surprise/shock.
Rodrigo added, "Yep," before he called out to the rainbow-colored MMT, "Aggie, come on up! You've arrived just in time"!
Despite feeling drunk, Aggie stumbled her way off from McJagger's back, and jumped onto the ground, making McJagger collapse and fall, before she stumbled her way up onto the stage, with Rhythm and Blues guiding her while making sure Aggie didn't hurt herself while she walked.
While laying on the ground, McJagger took a minute to try and catch his breath, commenting to his friends, "Who knew being dizzy...can make a Troll feel heavy too"?
Melody and Laguna helped the tired red Funk Troll back onto his feet, while Stereo and Sid watched Aggie climb onto the stage.
Once Aggie was on the stage, Trollazon and Travor helped make sure the colorful MMT didn't fall over, as Rodrigo said, "Aggie, how are you doing? Why don't you tell the leaders of the Normal Troll tribes all about us"?
Aggie, under the influence of the sugary drinks she had consumed, dizzily giggled, saying, "Well, I have trained to become an ambassador with the leaders for two straight years, and they were wonderful mentors to me! I thought theybwere the greatest teacher I could ever ask for"!
Everyone seemed impressed so far, as the leaders of Harmonious Land were smiling proudly. However, what happened next, no one saw it coming at all.
Aggie let out a tiny hiccup before saying, "But, you'd imagine my surprise..to find out how much of a big..jerk they really were"!
All 6 Harmonious Leaders immediately were startled in disbelief, and didn't even have enough time to say something to defend themselves, as Aggie continued shouting while glaring at the Harmonious Land leaders, "I worked so hard to learn everything there ever was to become an ambassador! I was so excited to get this job; I put my heart and soul into it! But you didn't let me have the job because, according to the standards, I didn't pick my Music in Life yet, nor did I earn my True Colors yet either! And because of that, you fired me! Well, you know what? I am 100% colorful now, and this colorful MMT is...back and..brimming brightly! So...I have only one thing to say to you"!
With the last bit of her strength, Aggie let out a long and loud raspberry, smiling smugly afterward, before she fell over, passing out on the stage and falling asleep.
While most of the audience was very much confused, the Normal Troll leaders, ambassadors, and the ones who were in the crowd, all looked at the Harmonious Land leaders with a mix of deadpanned looks, glares, looks of confusion, hands on their hips, or crossed arms. One thing was for sure though...the Normal Trolls all...wanted...answers...now!
A few minutes later...
While the leaders told the audience that they were going to take a break, the Magic Musical Trolls in attendance were getting food to eat by a buffet table set up to serve everyone. Meanwhile, the Normal Troll leaders, ambassadors, and the ones who were in attendance in the audience, including the group who was watching Aggie earlier, were on stage, talking with the leaders of Harmonious Land. Aggie was still asleep in the spot she had passed out on, but Trollex was beside her, making sure Aggie was ok.
"So, after what had just happened, would anyone like to clarify if what Aggie was saying earlier is the truth," asked Stereo.
"Ayn' be honest because we already know that Aggie's ayy real bad liar, so she's usually honest about the things she tells us aw othuurrs," Gust added.
All 6 Harmonious Land leaders looked at one another hesitantly before Trollazon stepped forward, saying, "Ok, you all deserve to know the truth. See, it is true that Aggie was supposed to be our ambassador, and we have been training her during two years of our leadership terms, but during the training process, she hadn't earned her True Colors, and as much as we were trying to show her everything in our mentorship, it was like nothing worked, and we felt like she wasn't the best fit to be an ambassador. so, with heavy hearts, we all...fired her, and we picked someone new to train in her place."
All the Normal Trolls gasped in shock/disbelief, with Cooper shouting, "But that ain't fair at all"!
"Why would you do that just because she didn't earn her True colors yet," Val asked in disbelief.
"We really didn't want to, but we were following the rules of our tradition," answered Amelia.
"Rules? Tradishun," Buckaroo asked while raising an eyebrow in confusion.
Bailey pulled out a book in his hair, saying while opening it to a page in particular, "Right here. In this book, it explains that each group of 6 leaders who rule Harmonious Land together choose a Magic Musical Troll to train him, or her, and once they have earned their True Colors when their training is complete, they are promoted to be the official ambassador of Harmonious Land. And MMTs who have already picked a genre of music and have their colors already are eligible to be picked as well."
"We figured that if we were trainin' Aggie, she'd be able ta pick huurr music by huurrself ayn' earn huurr True colors, but even during the two-year trainin' period, she was indecisive ov what music she wanted ta pick," Travor explained.
"Just because an MMT hasn't picked their music genre yet, or earn their True Colors, doesn't mean that you should fire them from getting to be an ambassador, especially if they're working as hard as Aggie did, and she gives 100% in everything she does," Melody commented with crossed arms of disappointment.
"Indeed, for firing her like that is simply a very rude thing to do," Minuet added.
"And completely unfair," exclaimed Smidge.
"We really didn't want to, but we were just following what the rules told us, and we had already picked someone new to take her place after we fired Aggie," Trollazon stated.
"Who exactly did you pick," Branch asked, raising an eyebrow of suspicion.
On cue, a female Magic Pop Troll with hot flamingo pink skin, red hair, and pink eyes, came up onto the stage, saying, "It's uh...me."
She walked over to Rodrigo, who introduced her, saying, "This is Flamingo, she's my daughter."
The now identified Magic Pop Trolls shuffled her left foot, saying, "I usually like being called Flame for short. But yeah, after the leaders fired Aggie, my dad recruited me to take her place, and as much as I didn't want to even become an ambassador, he made me go through the training process, and...I ended up taking her place."
All of the Normal Trolls still couldn't process the news about all of this, especially the leaders, who were more stunned than shocked about what they were hearing.
"Y'all...like...y'all! That ain't raheet," exclaimed Holly angrily.
"Not cool, man," McJagger commented, not approving the news at all.
"Gnarly, dude and dudettes," mentioned Riff.
"Note: Very disappointing," stated Laguna, who crossed her arms.
"Words can't express my utter shock and disdain," Dante commented while turning his head away.
"Oh my guh, how could you guys do such a thing," Smidge declared, flailing her arms.
"Aggie's one of your own people, your own kind," Demo added with a shout.
Trollazon then spoke up, saying, "We truly didn't want to fire Aggie from her ambassador duty, it was never our initial intention, but we had no choice"!
"Yeah, y'all, we was just followin' them rules our ancestors wrote in the past," Travor added.
"These set of rule and tradition standards have gone back to since the first set of leaders of Harmonious Land have ruled over this land, and with each new set of leaders, they were passed down to them each time," Amelia commented.
"That still doesn't give any Troll the right to fire someone just because they ain't gotten their True Colors yet, yo," Synth commented, crossing his arms.
Rodrigo spoke up, replying, "I know it looks harsh, and believe me, it is, but this isn't the first time that an incident like that has happened."
"Yeah, our former leaders did this with everyone since our homeland was first built," Raven added.
"It's been that way throughout our history," Bailey mentioned.
Hearing that piece of news, all of the Normal Trolls were stunned: they had thought that all Magic Musical Trolls treated each other fairly and equally, but from what they just heard, it's like the Normal Trolls' leaders ancestors weren't the only ones who made mistakes, because it appears that the ancestors of the Magic Musical Troll leaders also made mistakes by firing any MMT who were their former ambassador in training who hadn't picked their Music in Life and got their True Colors yet.
Sid was probably the most shocked to hear of this: he had always thought that the Magic Musical Trolls had a perfect lifestyle with their music and magic, and that they never had any issues of harmony. This was NOTHING like what his king had taught him! Never once did he expect the MMTs to ever do something like this to any of their people! Looking over at Aggie, who was still drunk and passed out on the stage, he suddenly felt something...off, as if he felt, strangely...bad...for Aggie? He felt bad...for her having to have gone through this before she even met the Normal Trolls?
Seeing the shocked looks on the Normal Trolls' faces, Trollazon realized that what they said sounded very, very off, but before she could even have the chance to try and explain things better, all of the Normal Trolls looked at one another and nodded, agreeing on something.
They all glared at the Harmonious Land leaders and proceeded to exit the stage, walking away, without looking back at the Harmonious Land leaders.
Trollex had picked up Aggie and was carrying her bridal style with him.
"Wait, Trolls, listen, w-we didn't- I know it- guys, wait," Raven called out, trying to get the Normal Trolls to come back and listen to them, but to no avail. The Normal Trolls were still feeling very angry about not only what the Harmonious Land leaders did to their own people in the past, but to what they did previously with their close friend, Aggie.
Sid stayed behind and looked at the Harmonious Land leaders and said bluntly, "You know something? You guys really aren't as perfect as you appeared to be. Maybe instead of caring more about the dumb rules your nitwit ancestors wrote, you should look out more for your own people, so you don't go making dumb mistakes like that," before walking away, catching up to the other Normal Trolls, leaving the Harmonious Land leaders by themselves on stage, all with their heads hung low, knowing how badly they messed.
"Y'all...we screwed up badly," Travor commented sadly.
"This was not how thing were supposed to go," added Rodrigo, who stomped his foot in anger, the anger mainly directed towards himself.
"President Trollazon, what shall we do now," asked Amelia in concern.
Trollazon sighed sadly and replied, "I don't know, Amelia. I..don't know."
By Techno Water Amusement, whivh was currently empty of visitors, Trollex laid Aggie gently on a park bench while Poppy went to go buy a water bottle and the bottled water store.
Once she came out with one, she gave it to Trollex, who prompted Aggie up into a sitting position and opened the water bottle, slowly giving her some water to drink.
Sip by sip, Aggie soon recovered from her drunken state and woke up, seeing all her friends looking at her in concern. Holding the water bottle in her hand, she asked, "Hey guys, what's going on? Why are we here at Techno Water Amusement Park? And how did I end up here"?
"Well...it's a very long story," Legsley commented while shuffling her foot.
"Kaand ov funny if ya really think about it," Buckaroo added with a nervous chuckle.
"You'll probably be laughing after we tell you what happened, future sis-in-law," Stereo mentioned.
"Ok, long story short, you got drunk at Funk Bar, and we carried you to the Welcome program where in your drunk state, you blurted something you hadn't told anyone yet to us and the leaders before passing out on stage," Sid bluntly replied, as his answer got him some head shakes and a few "really" deadpanned looks towards him.
Aggie, confused, asked, "I blurted out something? What did I say"?
Most of the Normal Trolls were a little nervous about telling Aggie, unsure of how she was gonna take the news.
"Uh...let Trollex tell you," declared Barb nervously as she pushed Trollex towards Aggie.
"Hey," shouted Trollex, who stopped and turned his head angrily at the queen of Rock, saying, "Why do I have to say it"?
Barb scoffed saying, "Because she's your girlfriend, abd you're her boyfriend, duh. She'll take the news better from you than any of us."
Trollex grumbled under his breath and held in the urge to facepalm as he sat beside Aggie, wrapping his arm around her, while saying, "Ok, well uh...Aggie, my lovely sweetheart, what you said was pretty...interesting to find out. You uh...definitely had a lot to say about the Harmonious Land leaders."
Beat hovered by Trollex, saying, "Speaking for my buddy here, in short, you...called them jerks because they fired you long ago because you hadn't earned your True Colors during your ambassador training."
Aggie gasped in shock, covering her mouth with both of her hands, before saying, "Oh golly, I said that?! Oh golly, oh golly, oh golly," and laid her head face first on her lap, covering the back of her head with her hands, in shame.
Trollex tried to reassure Aggie by gently rubbing her back in an top-down motion while commenting, "Hey, it's gonna be ok; you were just drunk, that's all. From personal experience, I know that too many sugary drinks can make you a little...cuckoo."
Aggie lifted get head up, saying to Trollex, "But I wasn't supposed to bring that up at all; it just slipped out of me."
"How come? We're your friends, Aggie; you can tell us anything," commented DJ Suki.
"It just didn't seem as important since I didn't have the job," Aggie replied while leaning her body up against Trollex, resting her head on his shoulder, while the Techno king soothingly stroked her colorful rainbow-colored hair.
"It is important though, because imagine what might've happened if you came to our kingdoms as an ambassador for your tribe," replied Melody.
"Ms. Song is right; if you had become an ambassador last year, you could've come to visit our kingdoms and inform us about not only your tribe, but the other tribes that lived among us," Dante commented.
"We would've gotten to learn from you and reunite with one another a lot sooner without the World Tour happening in the first place," King Quincy brought up.
"Plus, y'all have the makin' ov ayy great ambassador! Y'all are smart," Delta complimented.
"You're kind," Rhythm listed.
"You're devoted to music," Blues added.
"You're very friendly," Guy Diamond commented.
"You love helping others," Essence replied.
"You're spunky," Barb commented.
"You're so musically talented and love to teach others," Poppy listed.
"And you're the bravest Magic Musical Troll we ever know. You were brave enough to leave your homeland to come and find us and ask for our help," Trollex added, giving Aggie a quick peck on the nose, making her smile and blush.
"Yeah, sugar, our leaduurrs are raheet, ya know," Holly added with a smile.
"If that doesn't show what a good ambassador you can be, then Low-Note Jones doesn't know what, baby," Low-Note Jones happily noted.
"Note: the Harmonious Land leaders made a factual error in firing you back then, because to us, you'd make an amazing ambassador, Aggie," Laguna commented.
Aggie could feel happy tears forming on the side of her eyes, feeling very touched by what her friends were telling her, while at the same time, she was also remembering the memory of the day that the Harmonious Land leaders fired her, so she was happy/sad in a way, as she answered, "I'll admit that what they did before did hurt me, and it still does a little bit, but...honest;y, I am kind of...happy, I got fired."
All of the Normal Trolls were confused: what did Aggie mean she was happy about what happened?
Aggie explained, "Because the year after I was kicked out, I was able to spend reading and learning all about you guys and finding out about the history between us, but most importantly, I was able to plan out my runaway so I could come and see you guys, and ask for your help in helping me be able to earn my True Colors. so, yeah, while being an ambassador wold've been a lot of fun, if I hadn't been fired, I would've never gotten to meet you guys."
All of the Normal Trolls were now the ones feeling touched by the comment, saying, "Awww," in unison, except Sid, who merely shrugged.
"But it still feels very unfair, in a way, for the leaders to have fired you just because you didn't earn your True Colors yet during their training," Minuet inquired.
"Yeah, their reasoning definitely seems to be flawed," McJagger added.
"They should have never done that to you, dear Aggie; you deserve so much better," Trollzart mentioned while patting Aggie on the head.
"Y'all know what: ay say we oughta march down there raheet now ayn' ask 'em about re-haarin' Aggie as ambassador raheet now," declared Buckaroo, who was ready to gallop out of the house.
"Hold on there, Buckaroo; we should see what Aggie wants ta do," Delta stated as the normal Trolls all looked at Aggie, seeing what she wanted to do.
Aggie answered, "I appreciate the effort, guys, I really do, but I think it might be a lot easier if I talk to the leaders again, but this time, as myself, without the "dizzy spell."
"We'll still join you, Aggie, just in case," Trollex commented.
"Thanks, guys," replied Aggie.
Two hours later at Magicañang Palace, the Normal Trolls and Aggie, who was wearing her Master of All Music cape, all approached the entrance of the castle, where a guard allowed them inside and led them into the meeting room, where the Harmonious Land leaders, and Flame, were nervously awaiting for their arrival.
Inside, once everyone was in the room, the door closed behind them, giving the group privacy to talk together. Flame was very happy to be seeing the Normal Trolls again, but was also feeling a little worried about how the conversation was gonna go.
The President spoke up, saying, "Ms. Aggie, first, we apologize upfront for everything that had occurred during the break; and words can't even begin to express our deep sorrows that we want to apologize for with everything that happened since-,"
Aggie quickly interrupted Trollazon, saying with a smile, "President, it's ok; no hard feelings. If anything, I should also apologize for, uh...my "Sudden appearance" when I came up to you guys all dizzy like that."
"No worries, it's all good," Rodrigo replied to her statement.
"And second, may we bring up that we also wanted to give you a huge congratulations in earning your wonderful True Colors; they look so stellar on you. We remember how you used to play almost every kind of music during your training period with us, and with such precision and perfection, who knew it'd be a sign telling us what'd be coming for you? You're not just good at one type of music...you're amazing at all genres of music, no wonder why the Normal Trolls have dubbed you the Master of All Music."
Aggie was surprised that the Harmonious Land leaders knew about her title, as she turned her head towards her friends.
"We...might've told them while you were passed out earlier," Quincy replied.
Chairman Bailey then spoke up, saying, "And third, we want to apologize for what we did back then and the way we treated you; we all honestly didn't want to fire you like that, we were just following the rules and traditions that were created by our ancestors.
"No offense 'gainst an'thin' when ay say this, but our tradishun sucks, it's really unfauurr faw all MMts, ayn' we want ta make sure somethin' laake this, hopefully, doesn't happen laake that there again," Travor piped in.
"So, as our way of making things up to you, Aggie, we were all talking, and we all thought of something: if you choose so, you can be our ambassador again."
Flame came forward, saying, "and it's ok if you say yes; I didn't even want to be an ambassador in the beginning, so, it's more than ok if you want your old job back."
All of Aggie's friends became excited, feeling happy for Aggie that she was gonna get the chance to become an ambassador for her tribe again.
While Aggie was feeling very happy about this chance being presented to her...something inside Aggie made her realize something very important. So, she looked up at the Harmonious Land leaders and answered, "I appreciate the gesture, and I would be honored to be an ambassador again, but..."
"But what? Is something wrong," Trollazon asked in concern.
"No, no, it's just...don't take this the wrong way, but, in a way, when you guys fired me, it turned out to be the best thing that could've ever happened, because it gave me time and the chance to be able to meet my friends, earn my True colors with their help, and be able to learn more about the Normal Trolls. I'll admit what happened before, it did hurt me, but I didn't take it too personally, and I'm happy to forgive and forget, plus, I think that I prefer to be the Master of All Music, because I'm able to demonstrate a culture-wide respect and appreciation for every Trolls' musical culture, and bets of all, it lets me be able to do my job close with my friends."
The Harmonious Land leader all looked at one another before back at Aggie, giving her big smiles, showing they approved of her decision, with Rodrigo saying, "If this is what your enjoy doing, Aggie, then we all can easily respect that, Master," and bowed, along with the other leaders, and Flame, who also bowed towards Aggie, making Aggie blush happily in embarrassment, but appreciated the very kind gesture.
Flame then commented, "So, I guess I'll stick to being the ambassador for now; I've gotten used to it anyway after going through all the training they've given me over the past year, and it'd make me very happy to represent our tribe to you guys."
Aggie giggled, saying, "And it makes me happy to see you happy with your decision, Flame. I hope we can be good friends," and shook hands with the Magic Pop Troll.
"Us too," Poppy spoke on behalf of the Normal Trolls, making the smile on Flame's face a lot brighter.
After their talk ended, the Harmonius Land leaders led Aggie and the Normal Trolls out of the palace to the outside area again, where a large crowd of MMTs were standing and cheered when they saw who came out, cheering not only for the Normal Trolls but for Aggie and her position as the Master of All Music. Once everyone was on stage, while the Normal Troll ambassadors, delegates, and associates cheered for their leaders, the Magic Musical Trolls in the crowd all bowed in respect to the Normal Troll leaders and Aggie.
Aggie was watching this as she saw Trollex then whisper, "Go on, Master; you definitely deserve this moment," and motioned her to say a speech to
the large crowd.
Aggie nodded and stepped forward, facing the huge crowd of MMTs, and cleared her throat before speaking out, "Thank you everyone for coming out here today. I can't take all the credit, as it belongs to some very special friends of mine: the Normal Troll leaders, who have helped me be able to earn my True Colors thanks to the special friendship they made with me. I would not be where I am now if it weren't for them."
All the MMTs in the crowd cheered and applauded for the Normal Troll leaders, who felt very touched by the kind words.
Aggie then added, "Second, I have something I want to share with you. During my time in the Troll Kingdom, I got to witness something that you all might find to be very interesting," before she flew over to Poppy, whispering, "your turn, Poppy."
Poppy, a little nervous, whispered back, "Are you sure about this"?
Aggie nodded, saying, "You got this, I think they might be ready to hear about it. Give it a shot."
Poppy smiled in response before she then stepped forward, facing the large crowd, and said, "So, I know that many of you probably wish for one day, for us, both our tribes to come together and reunite, living together in harmony once again, just like before. Well, I know something that just might make that dream become a reality."
She pulled out her Trollstopia scrapbook, saying as she opened it and showed it off, "In the Troll Kingdom, we've formed a brand new city where Trolls of all kinds from different cultures, tribes, and music, come together to live not only with one another, but we get to celebrate the special diverse range of cultures that we each exhibit. Not only helping to demonstrate harmony, but acting as a beacon of friendship, love, and unity for all! Here, differences are embraced, and we get to see the unique vibes from each genre of music that makes each tribe of Trolls. It's called...Trollstopia."
Holly, Dante, Synth, Low-Note Jones, and Val walked over and stood beside Poppy, who added, "The other leaders have each sent a special ambassador to represent their tribe in our city, as they've brought many of their friends along to come join together in my home village: Pop Village, to help bring Trollstopia to life, and ever since we've kickstarted the city project, it's slowly rising to become the bright and bustling City of Harmony! And upon us getting to meet Aggie and learning all about the Magic Musical Trolls, I'd love to extend my offer out and invite you all to come and live with us in Trollstopia as well."
Aggie then flew forward, pulling out a radio, while Poppy added, "In fact, we prepared a little something, just to further explain things in a more "musical" sense."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Someday (from Z-O-M-B-I-E-S) by Meg Donnelly and Milo Manheim~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the song on the radio Aggie brought with her played, she and her friends all started to sing together in front of the Magic Musical leaders and the crowd that watched in awe, telling them, in their own unique way, about what someday, both their tribes living together in Trollstopia could do for both their tribes. Sid, still not into singing, just stuck to trying to dance along with the other Normal Trolls.
Aggie: Oh, la, la, la, la, la; oh yeah!
Trollex: I know it might be crazy, but did you hear the story?

While Sid was dancing with the others, to sell his "Pop Troll act" the song was so catchy, he couldn't help but sing out a little verse himself.
Sid: This place can be delicious- whoops! Meant harmonious!
Stereo: Where friendship and fun is glorious!

After the song ended, the huge crowd of Magic Musical Trolls were all amazed, and they murmured to themselves quietly about what it'd be like to be in this Trollstopia place.
Poppy was watching nervously, unsure of what the MMTs were thinking or processing about this.
However, she felt Branch hold her hand while saying, "Good job, Poppy. At least we were able to tell them about Trollstopia."
Poppy nodded, saying. "I'm just happy I got it off my chest before it exploded inside me, and made me go haywire by accident. I canjust only hope what they'regonna think about it."
"Hey, chin up, Popsqueak. Just give 'em a little time, and if they choose to come with us or no, it's fine, right," Val commented.
"Yeah, you're right, Val," Poppy replied back, the two fist-bumping each other.
Then, the Harmonious Land leaders came forward, with Raven asking, "Trollstopia? How come I've never heard of that place before."
Amelia was looking at a large map of Harmonious Land, and the Troll Kingdom, commenting, "It doesn't seem to appear on the map."
Essence explained, "It sort of a brand new place on the map, which is why we wanted to ell you about it."
Delta then commented, "It was all Poppy's idea ta have come up with the city in the first place."
"Ever since we all...came together," Trollzart stated, not bringing up the "World Tour Incident" before adding, "she wanted us to all come together as friends, and came up with the idea of us living together in the beautiful cuty."
Barb added, "And it's been a blast to live in ever since! Since we already have the 6 main tribes living together, your tribe is the only one missing, if you guys want to."
Poppy then commented, "I know that we have lived together, both our tribes, in the past, but I can assure you that we won't make the same mistakes our ancestors made back then. And if you are interested, we can be able to make the dream of our tribes reuniting become real again."
All 6 Harmonious Land leaders came together and discussed quietly in a little huddle together, whispering their discussion together, while the Normal Trolls all watched in anticipation, wondering if the leaders were gonna say yes or no.
After a few minutes, the Harmonious Land leaders separated from the huddle, with Trollazon saying, "Well, we have talked it over, and...this Trollstopia sounds like a very wondrous place. Plus, how can we pass up a chance for both our tribes getting to come together once again this way? We'd be honored to have some of our Magic Musical Trolls living in Trollstopia with you.
All of the Normal Trolls became very excited, thinking that the chance of a lifetime was now finally becoming a reality, and were about to cheer in excitement.
However, Trollazon quickly placed her hands up, saying, "However, as much as we definitely agree with this, this isn't necessarily our decision to make; we can't decide for the Magic Musical Trolls to live in Trollstopia. That decision..is up to them," and pointed to the crowd before adding, "Plus, since this news is coming all sudden-like, you might want to give them some time to think about it, and if you all decide to visit us again soon, we would need to schedule a TV interview so you cns share this with all of Harmonious Land. but, for now, let's letthem settle with the idea in mind and give them some time to think about it, ok"?
Everyone nodded in agreement, with Poppy saying, "Of course, take all the time you need."
Travor then declared, "Got it. Now, how about we all get somethin' ta eat? There's leftovuurrs from the buffet earlier, ayn' ay bet y'all must be famished."
The symphony of rumbling stomachs that came from the Normal Trolls answered that question, with Raven saying, "come on back in the palace with us; there's plenty for everyone, even you, Aggie."
Aggie was very honored to get to be having dinner with not only her friends but with the Harmonious Land leaders as well. she and her friends all followed the Harmonious Leaders back inside the palace, with the doors closing behind them once they were inside.
