Poppy was on the balcony of the funk UFO (why the hell do they have a balcony anyway) staring at the ocean, looking through its waters and looking at the coral reefs
Something about it made her feel so… unique
As she was deep in thought Barb walked towards her also amazed from the view "wow, who knew the ocean was so… beautiful" Barb said "yea" said Poppy still in thought
Poppy suddenly snaped back to reality thinking about Trollex and his temper tantrum earlier, she turned to Barb "I wonder how Trollex is doing" Poppy thought aloud
They both turned around and saw Trollex curled up and shaking with prince D gently patting him on the shoulder
"he looks fine" Barb said happily, Poppy just looked at her with a confused look and Barb responded with "hey at least this is better than when he threw things" with a blank stare
Poppy thought for a bit and agreed "that's true but in order for him to explore (and to stop him from throwing things) we need to help him" "and you know what helping needs…" Poppy paused
Barb knew what was coming "no-" Poppy cut her off "A MUSICAL NUMBER" Poppy said with glee
As Poppy took a deep breath so sing Rain stuck an apple in Poppy's mouth
"there solved your problem" Rain said before walking away
"fine, no musical number for now…" Poppy agreed "I'll just talk to him"
As Poppy turned back around she saw Trollzart locking a room "he's having a mental breakdown again" Trollzart said with a traumatized look
"this might take a while" Poppy said
Meanwhile
Dede, Derik, Serene and Brent were just doing what they're doing (so…nothing) "how come we have to stay here" Derik spoke up, the others just stared at him as a response "don't you remember, you're the one who got us banned from visiting" Brent remined "and I'm only allowed there to visit family!" Serene brought up
"hey its not my fault he was cute" Derik protested "YOU SAID THAT ABOUT THE LAST GUY!" yelled Dede
she calmed down before she said it again "you said that about the last guy" Dede said calmly, Derik raised a brow
"correction he said that about EVERY guy" Brent corrected
"okay so I think may have a problem trying to impress my crushes" Derik agreed "YA THINK?!" Dede yelled again
"ya know what" Derik paused "I think you guys just need some motivation" he continued "oh no is gonna do what I think he's gonna do" Serene said worried "he's gonna sing" Brent said
Just look up
Hey everyone has felt down one time
No matter how many times you say your fine
You may frown
But turning upside down
Just look up
I'll help you if you want
Just look up
It may be hard
Juuuuuuuuuust look up
Juuuuuuuuuust look up
A broken wing may be a pain
And an eye affected by the brain
But down worry
Because we're all the same
Just look up
You're gonna be alright
Just look up
With me
You'll survive another night
Just look up
YEAH
Derik ended his song standing in front of the others with an unimpressed Dede and Serene still bobbing her head to the now finished music
"come on guys" Brent said gesturing the others to follow. Dede hopped back on Serene's head and they all walked off leaving Derik behind
After watching them leave Derik walked off in the other direction to sulk "stupid guys 'Derik your doing everything wrong' 'Derik get away from him' 'Derik stop singing all the time' I'm just so sick of it"
Derik was so blind of all the rage that he didn't even notice the techno troll coming from the side "watch out!" call the tech troll before ramming into him
Derik only noticed when it was too late
"oh my god I'm so sorry" said the troll, he had a surprisingly high voice for a guy "are you alright" he said "yea, I think s…" Derik paused as he stared at the troll who ran into him "uh…" it was obvious that the techno troll was uncomfortable "oh, the names Derik" said Derik stretching his hand out to shake the tech troll's hand
"Liam" the troll said "I should thank you for bumping into me, like in a specific way"
Liam had no Idea what Derik was talking about and to make it more visible he raised a brow "look your hot and my friends currently hate me" Derik said with a straight face
Liam thought about it for a moment "well I am single but then again I just met him, welp I'm lonely might be nice" he thought "hmm sure, but what's in it for me" Liam said "uh…" Derik didn't think about that
All of his turquois hairs were standing on end until Liam laughed and said "don't worry you don't have to give anything to me"
Derik calmed down and walked with him into the sunset hand in hand "so my place or your place" Derik asked "I think your place because I live underwater" Liam said moving his hand and wrapping around Derik's shoulder. "Fair enough" said Derik doing the same thing, Wrapping his arm around Liam's neon red body
"also did I mention how much I love your hair colour?" Derik added "what is it, pink?" Derik asked "I'd say more of a rose gold" Liam said
Meanwhile
The door opened and Poppy walked out "so what happened?" Essence asked, Poppy whispered in her ear, Essence nods and walked to the control room, just then Barb walked out the door dragging Trollex by the arm
She threw him on the ground "ow!" said Trollex face planting onto the floor
"go on tell them what you told me" Barb told Trollex "I think I might be able to survive being away from the ocean for a day" Trollex said
told Essence to lift the UFO higher in the air and away from the ocean
Trollex's twitched eye twitched
"what" he whispered
5 seconds later Trollex was being held back trying to attack Poppy for making his fear worse
At night while the other were asleep, Trollex was on the balcony trying to clear his head, before he knew it Delta dawn was next to him "I'm no therapist but…" Delta dawn was cut off my Trollex "I know, I know, 'I shouldn't of tried to attack Poppy'" Trollex said "but, if you were afraid of leaving, you should have had a choice to come" Delta Dawn finished "also, tried to, you literally pulled her hair out!" Delta dawn continued
"hey she deserved it" Trollex said "I guess, techno reef was the only place I felt safe" Trollex explained "I mean most trolls can't breathe underwater so I wouldn't of had to worry about attacks, that was until Barb" Trollex continued
"c'mon its getting cold" Delta dawn said guiding Trollex indoors "ya know, its quite nice being away from the ocean for a night" Trollex said
