“The egg is different?” John said at the dark blue egg with skulls on it. “Well John it's about time I told you and your brothers,” Grandma Rosiepuff said as Floyd, Spruce and Clay all gathered around “Your Mother was different from us, she is a rock troll your father is a Pop troll. We trolls used to live in harmony with other tribes Techno, Country, and Funk until according to your Mother Pop forced everyone to listen to one thing, so our ancestors took a string and divided”.

“So the baby is a Rock Troll? What about us, what are we?” Floyd asked, wanting to know more. “All of you took after your father, you four are Pop trolls like me. This egg is a Rock Troll but just because they are different doesn't mean they aren't family” Grandma said as Floyd hugged the egg “What about our band?” John Dory said “Band Later John this is family” Spruce said as he saw the egg, and it moved “I hope it's a girl far too many boys in this family” Clay said “I don't mind as long as I'm not the youngest anymore” Floyd said “Well another boy would be cool for me, I don't think I can handle a little sister chasing away boys” John said.

All four brothers suddenly paused and said “Well I don't mind either, but if it was a girl, I can teach her how a real man is” Spruce said, pointing at himself “Gotta give them standards young” Floyd looked at the egg and saw it was shaking “Guys!” Floyd yelled, making everyone look and saw the egg shaking until it cracked and a small baby boy trolling came out and yelled “Rock’n’Roll!” With the most adorable voice.

“It's a boy!” Floyd said as he hugged his brother, “Wait names!” All the brothers thought about it, “Bruce?” Spruce said “No, your ego is big enough, how about… Rowan Jr?” Clay said, “Not after Dad, his name is pretty boring.” John said, “I know Branch!” Everyone agreed as Branch immediately started running around the pod “It's sad to know he was born here on the tree” Floyd said, “One day will escape. King Peppy will make sure”.

Only a year passed by when Branch was born when the stress of the band really got to them

Branch never joined Brozone while Pop wasn't he's liking at least that's what they thought they knew Rock was something the brothers seem to enjoy something about how raw and emotional it was and it was great

Clay was Branch Drummer a few times and something about hitting the drums wildly gave him that outlet for his anger with John and him being bossy was just too much

The Drums made him go crazy, he wasn't the fun boy he was wild

Sometimes Clay thinks he isn't a Pop Troll, maybe he's like Branch but when he's with Brozone that spark was still there he loved being there with his older brother and little brothers

“B I don't know if I can keep being your drummer” Branch looked sad, “Why?” “Because I'm in a band with our brothers and I can't be in two, and I'm Pop your Rock, I'm not sure if I can be both” Clay looked saddened until Branch gave him a hug

“I'm Rock with 4 Pop brothers I can be both” Branch said as Clay hugged him tightly “I thought you hated our songs” Clay said “Some of them, but I like most”

“Can you still be my drummer?” Branch asked “Always B”.

The Bass was something Spruce liked a deep tone to help carry the melody but used in rock it can be more

He sometimes helped with Branch songs, and he enjoyed it in rock the only role were instruments he's not a heartthrob just Spruce the Bass player

And he liked it

He wasn't known for abs or anything about his looks just his instrument and skills and that was what he liked

“Hey Clay?” Spruce called “Yeah?” “We're Pop trolls” “Yeah?” Clay was confused “Yet I can tell both of us like Rock it's so freeing from Brozone” Spruce said as Clay looked down “Yeah my theory is because of Mom” Clay said “She was a rock troll and maybe because of her all of us like Rock” Clay said “Yeah if Mom and Dad can be together despite being different could be we can as well” Spruce and Clay smiled at each other “Y'know this is why you're my favorite brother” Clay said “Sorry Clay my favorite is Branch”.

Floyd like being a guitarist following Branch lead while he sings sure Branch is a little shy with other trolls, but he's made friends with two glitter trolls that are a tad bit older than him Hype and Boom

He was happy he didn't have to be the voice of reason because with rock he can yell

Anger, disappointment, depression he can yell and give it song

He can tell John also likes it, but Brozone was something they made when their parents were here they all can't let go

He didn't have to be in charge he had to follow someone else and John liked it

Being the oldest meant taking charge but with Branch small little band playtime he had to follow someone else and he liked it

It was a harmony they can all do, especially with John keyboard it was close enough with Pop that he knew how it worked but how he used it was spectacular

But then he noticed the glow of the Perfect Family Harmony they were doing something that they promised the fans with Brozone and John was fine with it happening here

The fans didn't matter, just his family

And he was fine he's an older brother and that's great he's enjoying being with his family
