Meanwhile, Barb and D sat on the Funk stage, Barb was teaching D how to play guitar. "So you move your finger up...here?" D asked, moving one of his fingers up the neck of the guitar, "Yup!" Barb replied, "And that's your D chord!", "Hah! D chord! You have been mastered!" D joked. The two laughed, "You know what? I really enjoy your company Barb" D said, Barb blinked, "Really?", "Yeah, you are unlike any girl I've met" D said. Barb gave a small concerned look, "What's 'Any Girl You've Met' like?" She asked, D blinked and blew a bit of his hair out of his face.

"They're always so...in your face, so clingy, and I feel like they're really two faced about a lot of things, and pretty predictable. You on the other hand...you're always so calm, you're unpredictable, you're...you honestly remind me of my mom!" D said, Barb laughed, "Is...is that a compliment?" She joked, "It is the BEST compliment!" D laughed.

Just then, Poppy stormed out of the bushes, Branch following close behind, "POPPY! COME ON! LET ME TALK TO YOU!" he yelled. All the trolls had seen them walk off to talk, and all proceeded to follow, all except D and Barb, who decided to keep out of the drama. "They'll sort it out" Barb said, D nodded and went back to watching Barb play.

All the trolls were silent as Poppy and Branch argued. "You're a...a rock troll Branch?" Biggie piped up, not making any attempt to step forward, "Yes...well sorta, I'm a Pop/Rock troll, my parents...kinda broke the rule" Branch explained, earning a gasp from the leaders. Poppy just grunted and threw her hands up in the air.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU! YOU'RE A FILTHY ROCK TROLL!" Poppy screamed, Peppy went to put a hand on his daughter's shoulder but brought it back to his cane and sighed, "Poppy, look, I know this a lot to take in but-", "BUT NOTHING DAD! HE'S A TRAITOR! BET HE THINKS POP IS GARBAGE NOW, HUH?!" Poppy cut her dad off.

Branch groaned and marched up to Poppy, "LOOK, I ONLY JUST FOUND THIS OUT OKAY!? AND FOR THE RECORD I THINK POP IS PRETTY DARN AMAZING!! BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I FAVOUR IT OVER OTHER STYLES!"

"PSSH WHATEVER, I BET THAT'S WHY YOU WANTED TO PERFORM WITH BARB!!"

"NO IT'S NOT!! I WANTED TO PERFORM BECAUSE SHE NEEDED SOME HELP AND I KNEW NO-ONE ELSE WOULD DO IT!!"

"NO, IT'S CAUSE YOU LOVE HER! CAUSE YOU WANT TO BE WITH TROLLS WHO ARE DARK AND DEPRESSING AND HORRIBLE LIKE YOU!!"

"HOW WOULD YOU KNOW THEY'RE LIKE THAT HUH!? HOW WOULD YOU KNOW!? YOU'VE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THEM UP UNTIL TWO DAYS AGO!!"

"YOU'RE ACTING LIKE YOU KNEW THEM BETTER THAN ME!! YOU DON'T!! YOU'VE BEEN GREY FOR 20 YEARS OF YOUR LIFE! YOU DON'T KNOW MUSIC!! YOU'RE NOT A TRUE TROLL YOU'RE JUST...BRANCH!!"

(A/N: If this is any indication I ain't good with arguements)

Poppy covered her mouth at her outburst, everyone looked at her in shock. Their old Poppy was truly gone. Branch looked at her with wide eyes, he grabbed at his heart and winced quietly in pain as his colors faded, revealing the same grey Branch from last year.

Poppy gasped a reached her hand out, "Wait no- Branch please! That's not what I- I'm sorry I didn't mean to...Branch?" She protested, but Branch said nothing, he turned away from Poppy and refused to look at the others.

"Branch! Come on! What can I do to make it up to you?" Poppy asked, Branch didn't turn around, all was sigh as he spoke, what he said, shocked Poppy to her core.

"...Leave"

Poppy froze, "W-what?"

Branch finally turned around, his face screwed into the biggest frown anyone had ever seen, "I said Leave" and with that he spun around and a spotlight shone on him as he began to sing.

(A/N) Poppy has dialogue in between the song, which will be represented like THIS )

(Branch)

You just hit me with the truth
Now girl you're more than welcome to
So give me one good reason
Baby come on

Branch, hold on, look I'm sorry!

I've lived for you and me
And now I really come to see
That life would be much better once you're gone

But Branc-

I know that I can't take no more
It ain't no lie
I want to see you out that door
Baby bye bye bye

Branch, Please!

Don't want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
I don't want to be your fool
But it ain't no lie
Baby bye bye bye
Bye bye
Don't really want to make it tough
I just want to tell you that I've had enough
It might sound crazy but it ain't no lie
Bye bye

(END)

Poppy watched as Branch swung away off in the darkness, she fell.to her knees and cried. In front of everyone. "Hey! Guys! Me and D got something awesome to tell y-" Barb cried as she and D ran to the group only to cut herself off once she noticed what was happening, "Oooh, what happened?" She asked D who shrugged in response.

Barb slowly made her way up to Poppy and put her hand on her shoulder. "Hey...you alright?" She asked, Poppy sniffed as she wiped her eyes dry, "No...no I'm not...I-I-I just lost my best friend...my really special friend...I'm such a fool...to think that I could handle looking after you...after all of you...now look what happened..." she sighed, Barb smiled,  "Yeah, look what happened" she said, lifting Poppy to her return and showing her all the trolls, "You brought us back together! You have taken that time to do something no other leaders had even thought of doing! Poppy you are incredible...you are no fool...if any one is its me...I put you in danger..." Barb explained.

"But without you doing what you did Poppy wouldn't have known about us" D added, "Which means we wouldn't be here", "And I was wouldn't have found my family" Cooper said.

"We wouldn't have had the confidence to share our music with the world!" Chaz said, pointing to him and Tresillo.

"Don't you two see?" Peppy said, stepping get forward out of the crowd, "Without all the choices you made, we all would still be divided and living in hatred of each other", "Huh...I was never thought of it like that" Poppy said, drying her face finally, "I guess it was a good thing you wanted to obliterate music, huh?"

"I certainly think it is"

All the trolls looked behind Poppy and saw a flower blooming, from it came a radiating pink light and from that light a Blue skinned troll, with Pink hair, and Beautiful Green dress. "I don't believe it" Peppy said, Poppy blinked at the glowing troll and smiled in realization of who it was. "Hold on...you're Donna-Maddline! You're the First Pop troll!" She said

"You bet your sweet cupcakes I am" Donna replied, stepping down from the flower. "Poppy, I have watched how you have reunited all the kingdoms together, and I thank you" Donna smiled, Poppy smiled back, "Thank you...but how am I to fight Thrash? He has all the strings!"

"You don't need them, all you need is your music"

"But-"

"Poppy, trust me, it's a troll you'll need, it's all any troll has ever needed"

Poppy sighed and smiled as Donna stepped back into her flower, suddenly a rumbling noise was heard in the forest, "It's time" Donna said, "I'll see you soon Hopefully" with that,  she faded into her flower and the light slowly dimmed until you was dark again.

As the rumbling grew louder, Poppy nodded eeterminely and turned around to the group. "Okay guys, let's go give them a show they'll never forget."
