Once Poppy smashed the guitar,-like the time in Bergen town- everyone lost their colors. A relief to Branch, and the leader for being back to normal, though, the rest is bad news.
"Branch!" You and Poppy screamed. You went to the stage and ran towards Poppy and Branch, you passed Barb who looked disbelief at the strings.
"No." She ran towards her broken guitar and snapped strings. "My strings." She held the strings only for them to fade away. You, Branch, and Poppy looked at Barb and angrily said, "What have you done? You've destroyed music!" The three of you gasped silently.
"Give it up, everybody." She announced to the audience. "Thanks to the Queen of Pop, we've all lost our music." "History repeats itself. Pop has ruined everything.
Everyone was shocked and sad to hear about this. They all lowered their head hopelessly. Prince D watched his parents as he also gave up. Cooper looked at his brother and also lowered his head, but suddenly he felt his heart thumping. He opened his eyes and realized that his heat was glowing pink and was thumping rhythmically.
He picked up the microphone from earlier, and placed it in his chest. The heartbeat was thumping rhythmically over the speakers, and caught everyone's attention. Prince D walked closer to his brother and started beatboxing to the rhythm.
"Those are my sons. Making music." Queen Essence said. Delta's heart started to glow as well she bobbed her head along the music and started clapping and tapping to the rhythm. She faced her country trolls who's heart also started to glow and joined her. Soon the entire arena was glowing due to the trolls hearts. The trolls stopped and only their heartbeats could be heard.
"Queen Barb can't take away something that is inside us. Because that's where music really comes from." Queen Essence said.
"It started with the strings, but now it comes from us." King Quincy added. The techno trolls started vocalizing melodically.
"Yeah it comes from our experiences." Trollex said.
"Our lives." Delta added.
"Our culture." Queen Essence said.
The melodic vocalizing continued. "Beautiful." Trollzart said happily.
"Listen to that. Barb can't take that away." Poppy said. She looked around the stadium with a smile. the vocals stop and she looked at Queen Essence, which she returns a nod, she looked at you and you gave her a proud smile.
🎶"Let me hear you sing"🎶
The sun started rising and shone down everyone.
🎶"Sing it together"🎶
🎶"Louder than ever"🎶
🎶"Forget everything"🎶
You and Branch stood beside Poppy and started harmonizing with her.
🎶"Just sing. Like it's what we've been missing "🎶
🎶"And they're gonna listen, listen"🎶
🎶"Forget everything"🎶
🎶"Just sing"🎶
Then You, Poppy, and Branch magically got your colors back.
"Dad?" Barb looked at his Dad questionably. "It's all right, Barbara." He said playing a soft melody in his keyboard. "Just let everyone be what they want to be. Including you."
The royal funk family walked towards the stage.
Poppy: 🎶"You think you've gotta hide it"🎶
Y/N: 🎶"Don't keep it on the shelf"🎶
Both: 🎶"Let your waist start moving. Watch the way I do it, do it"🎶
Poppy: 🎶"See me do it like nobody else"🎶
The funk family finally got their color back as well.
Queen Essence: 🎶"If we sing it all together"🎶
Prince D & Branch: 🎶"If we sing it all as one"🎶
Queen Essence: 🎶"It's louder than yourself"🎶
Prince D & Branch: 🎶"All together, everyone"🎶
🎶"Everybody's looking. Watch the way we do it. Do it"🎶
🎶"Sing it loud now- Hold up, watch out how I do it"🎶
🎶Cause we do it like nobody else🎶
The rest of the leaders also got colors and started singing along.
🎶Let me hear you sing🎶
You felt a hand grab your arm and spun you around, you noticed and saw Trollex and immediately blushed.
🎶"Don't you stop it, don't you fight it "🎶
🎶 Let me hear you sing🎶

The classical trolls took their instruments and played. "Play, play." Trollzart said. A classical troll played Pennywhistle, and trilled her, "Beautiful" Trollzart praised. (Ok, so isn't Pennywhistle in Symphonyville? How the heck did she go there?)

The crowd cheered. A rock troll in the crowd was hugged by a pop troll and a funk troll. "I love you guys." he said.
(Y/N POV)
I saw dad trying to get on the stage, so I ran up to him and me and Poppy helped him. "Dad, we should've listened to what you had to say and not run off like that." Poppy apologized.
"I'm so glad you didn't listen to me." He said with a proud grin. "You weren't naïve about this world, You were brave enough to believe things can change." Me and Poppy exchanged a smile. "Braver than me."
Dad faced the audience, "I raised Poppy and Y/N to be strong and self-confident. I was a genius" He said and stage-dived in the crowd. You and Poppy laughed.
Poppy walked towards Barb who had a big smile in her face. "Well, now that you're not forcing me, I hope we can be friends."
"Yes!" Barb agreed. "Did you hear that, Carol? We have a girl group now" She yelled to Carol.
"A girl group? Nice!" She threw her can and it blocked Chaz's clarinet.
"Can I join this girl group?" I asked. "Of course." Barb said and turned her attention back to Carol. "Yeah, Carol! She's psyched. "
I saw Branch standing behind me and Poppy. He was fidgeting and looked nervous about something. Then like lightning, I realized he was abut to confess.
"Uhm... I'll be right back, I need to ask Delta how much I owe her for breaking the cell door." I said and quickly gave them some privacy.
(3rd POV)
Y/N walked away and eyed Branch, Branch mouthed a 'thank you' which she returned thumbs up.
He walked up to Poppy, as she realized him. " Branch, I love that we're different." She said.
"And I love you, Queen Poppy." Branch said lovingly.
"I love you, too, Branch." She said with a soft smile.
Branch held his hand up and said, "Shall we?"
Poppy ran futher from Branch and held her hand up as well. She ran towards Branch's hand and high-fived.
"Yeah!"
"Yes!"
"Now that's a good connection." Poppy said.
Aside from Poppy and Branch, Y/N was looking for Delta Dawn. Finally she spotted her and went to her.
"Hey Delta, Sorry about, uh, breaking out the other day." Y/N apologized. " Oh, it's no problem, honey. It's in the past now." Delta reassured. "So does that mean I'm off the hook." The tow of them laughed. "No you need to pay up." She said seriously. "Fair enough." Y/N shrugged.
Y/N felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see Trollex. "Oh, Trollex." She said and threw her arm around him. "I'm so glad that your ok."
"Uh, yeah, Uhm, listen Y/N there's something I need to-"
"Hmm. I thought there was 'nothing' going on with you two." Delta said smugly.
Trollx scoffed, "There is nothing going on between us. It's what she said."
"Well, that could be changed..." Y/N said. "Exactly-wait-what?" Trollex looked at her with a slight blush.
"If you want to, I'll be here." She placed a kiss on his cheek and walked away.
Trollex stared at her as she walks away, completely dumbfounded.
"Uh-huh, there's no denying it now." Delta said with a smirk.
