Chapter 1: Purple hyacinths

“Oh really? Who?” The queen of rock asked “Well the king of the Techno trolls is coming to town!” Synth answered. Barb then froze after hearing the answer “You mean.. Trollex?... King Trollex?” She asked again “Yep, King Trollex!” The techno troll answered again. Barb yet again went cold, after hearing the name Trollex made her feel… strange. “Oh..” she muttered, “So about that party, why don’t we throw that for King Trollex!” Barb suggested “Barb, you’re a genius! We need to find a place to start the party, we need cupcakes, confetti” 

“NEON LAZERS! BIG SPEAKERS!” Synth added “And what about bubbles? Y’know to fit the ocean vibe?” Barb suggest “Great idea! Bubbles!” Poppy said. While the 4 blabbered around, they were cut off by the rumbling on the ground, the 4 trolls started to look at each other in concern and confusion. Then suddenly something popped out of the water, loud techno music was playing, a big whale appeared out of the water and on top was a blue techno troll, it’s King Trollex, “WHAT’S UP TROLLS!” He excitedly raised both of his arms and flew down. “King Trollex! You came!” Poppy happily said heading over to Trollex, while Barb was just looking at the ground, Val was looking at her, confused.
“Yo Queen Poppy! How are ya?” Trollex asked “Oh I’m doing great, I and the others were planning for a party for you and Barb!” Poppy replied “Cool!- wait, Barb?” Trollex raised an eyebrow, when hearing Barb’s name “Yeah! She came here first!” Poppy said, grabbing Barb using her hair and then putting her arm on Barb’s shoulder.

Trollex and Barb stared at each other for a second “Oh.. Hello Barb..” Trollex said, looking at Barb with dead eyes, sternly and crossed his arms.“H-Heyy Trollex-” Barb started sweating in fear “So… How’s the reef?? The..uhh.. Your trolls?” Barb asked, trying to avoid the death stare but she only made the awkwardness vibe worse “I’m sorry what?” Trollex said, going forward a little “Oh- No no I mean the trolls, sorry I- I got lost, like caught off guard y’know? ehehe” Barb chuckled and apologized quickly. Trollex then nodded a little “Oh Popcorn, where are we gonna go?” Barb asked, ignoring Trollex “Oh we can go to the TrollsTopia Metroll Station or-” Poppy answered “Ok I’ll meet you guys there!” Barb said cutting off the pink troll before she finished 

“Barb! Where are you going?” Poppy asked “I gotta go get something! I left something at the Angler Bus!” Barb said running to the bushes, “Barb wait!” Poppy tried to catch her attention but it’s too late. “I’ll follow her, I’ll meet you 3 in the station” Val said following Barb in the bushes.

[Heading to the Angler Bus]

Barb was running through the bushes and she found her Angler bus, the mouth open letting Barb in. Once she entered, she started to mutter. “YO BARB!” Val yelled from behind, Barb flinched but she calmed down “Yo you alright? You were letting out a massive awkward atmosphere back there. Did something happen?” Val asked her queen, her best friend, who was now sitting at the throne with her hands on her head “...Barb?” Val worriedly said, which let Barb grumble under her breath “shoot, shoot, shoot, shOOT!” Barb mumbled then yelled, which surprised Val, well she knows she screams out of excitement but not out of.. Panic

“WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO!? I DIDN’T KNOW KING TROLLEX WAS GONNA BE HERE!” Barb hysterically screamed, this made Val even more worried “Barb, Barb calm down, what’s wrong?” She asked, Barb took a moment and sighed “Remember those apologetic letters I made for the other leaders because of me and the world tour?” Barb stressfully asked and looked at Val, the pigtail troll nodded slowly “And y’know the tribe leaders forgave me right?” The queen asked again “Yes? Why?” Val answered and asked for a reason, Barb again sighed “I lied… all of them did forgive me but…King Trollex… he didn't forgive me, I didn’t receive any letter from him…” She frowned

“Oh.. But why?” Val asked, Barb looked at her with a “You know why” face, which left Val understand “But you have to do something! It’s gonna get really awkward between you 2!” Said Val, the queen stood up and said “I know! I know! But I don’t know how, I can’t convince him” she paced around for a little “Plus I tried to convince him that I can be a good person and I already changed but he still doesn’t, I did that 2 times!” Barb said, walking over her table, looking at it. Val stayed silent but then said “Oh why don’t we tell Poppy! Maybe she can help!” Val suggested, but Barb quickly turned the suggestion down “NO! We can’t let Poppy know! I don’t want her to get involved in my mess! Plus what if Trollex accused her for doing whatever I’m trying to do? Or what if she gets hurt because of me?” Barb paced around, angrily “Val… I already made a big mistake, by making world domination thinking it's right.. I hurt everyone during that time.. And now one of the tribe leaders didn't forgive me
…And it’s my mess.. Not yours, Poppy and King Trollex. I don't need help, so let me handle this” She said, calming down, this made Val frowned and worry "Val, don’t tell Poppy about this…. I’m not gonna make things complicated and worse…” She begged, Val thought for a while and sighed “Alright.. I’m doing this because you’re my best friend and I trusted you!” she said with a warm smile. Barb embraced Val, which Val hugged back. “Thank you, thank you Val! You are the best and you ROCK!!” Barb cheerfully said. Val looked at her best friend, who was happy, but she knows it's going to hurt her more.
