The True King of Techno {Trolls World Tour}

Ch.7

With Trollex: 

“Trollex! Wake up, we’re here!” exclaimed Poppy, smiling as she kneeled down beside the former king, shaking his shoulder gently. 

The Techno Troll, awoken from his slumber, blinked his eyes, his vision slightly blurred.

He had been asleep on one of the bedrolls that Branch had put out for the three of them, Beat still sleeping with his arms wrapped around the Beat Drop Button fish. 

“Where-?” began Trollex, too tired and groggy as he slowly sat up, rubbing his eye with one hand while the other held Beat in a tight, yet gentle grasp close to his chest. 

“We’re here! We made it to Symphonyville!” said Poppy excitedly, standing up and going over to Branch. 

The King of Pop was at the controls, helping guide the hot air balloon down, descending. 

Trollex took a moment to wake up fully before getting up and floating over to the two Pop Trolls. It was nearly sundown, the sun slowly setting behind the large mountains they were descending towards. It had been around noon when they left, if not an hour after.

Trollex held Beat close to his chest, the Beat Drop Button fish beginning to wake up as the Techno Troll looked out over the edge of the basket. 

They were, indeed, descending down to Symphonyville. The Classical Trolls all lived in beautiful golden colored mountains, high above cloud level. 

The last time Poppy and Branch had been here, all of the homes and buildings built into the mountains were destroyed with debris scattered all over the place. 

Now, the Classical Trolls had time to fix and rebuild their lovely home. There were still several homes that needed repairs, but the large village was already looking better. 

As they continued to descend, several Classical Trolls gathered around, excited and curious to see who their visitors were. 

Trollex began feeling nervous, though. He wanted to do this for his tribe, but was it really worth bothering the other tribes with his problems? 

Poppy and Branch both stood on either side of the Techno Troll, looking down as they landed. 

The two jumped out the second the hot air balloon touched down, but Trollex stuck back, too nervous and scared.

He tightened his hug on the Beat Drop Button fish, causing Beat to wake up fully. 

“Trollex? What’s wrong?" asked Beat, glancing up at his best friend. 

“I-I...I don’t know if I can do this. I don’t want the other tribes worrying about me and my problems” admitted Trollex, looking away from the Classical Trolls. 

Beat could feel his friend’s heartbeat as the Techno Troll hugged him against his chest, his fin-like ears drooping. His heartbeat was fast and irregular, indicating he was nervous and scared. 

“Trollex, it’s alright. The other tribes will be happy to help you in any way they can” said Beat gently, smiling up at the Techno Troll. 

Trollex felt his heartbeat calm down a little, giving the Beat Drop Button fish a small smile in return. 

“Hey, Trollex!” called Poppy, smiling cheerfully, waving the Techno Troll over. 

Trollex snapped out of his thoughts and looked down at the two Pop Trolls and the gathering of Classical Trolls. 

Trollex glanced back down at Beat, who smiled encouragingly. The Techno Troll took in a deep breath before floating down and taking his place beside the two Pop Trolls.
