Upon request, I have decided to write this bonus chapter, which will tell you what went down the day Barb attacked Techno Reef.

This chapter will be told in Titus' point of view.

By the way, I went back into the book and changed a few things, with one of them being the color of Roxy's headphones. I realized that I mentioned these once, and then never again, so I decided to switch up the color in order to make it more soul-crushing, cause that's just what I do.

Anyways, here we go!

Not a day goes by when I don't think about her. I yearn to hold her in my arms again; to dance and sing with her. I told her to wait for me, but every time I tried to travel to Volcano Rock City to bring her back home...I'd get scared and turn back.

Some husband I turned out to be...

I had a son to take care of, and a kingdom to rule...well, I used to rule this kingdom. Today, I passed my crown on to my son, the new king of Techno Reef:  Trollex.

For you see, today was his coronation day. I told him that something big was going to happen today that would change his life forever. I mean, I reunited with his mother on my coronation day, so who knew what'll happen on his.

While everybody was preparing for Trollex's first rave as king, I sat in my bedroom and stared at the broken pieces of his mother's crown. A few days after she was taken, I went back to the beach and collected every last piece of it. I kept them in a box, and have often thought about putting it back together, but...

I felt like doing so would only make my heart hurt even more...

I even went the extra mile to make sure her violin stayed safe and didn't get damaged. I kept it in an airtight bubble, also in my room, and that's where it's stayed for twenty years...

Twenty years...she hasn't played it for so long...I wonder if she were to hold it now...would she even remember how to play it?...

My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on my door. It was Trollex.

"Dad? You in there?" he asked from the other side of the door. I sighed.

"Yes..."

"Can I come in?"

"Of course..."

I heard him slowly open the door. "What are you- oh..." He recognized the pieces of the crown in my hands, and who they belonged to...yet her face had been erased from his mind, and just like the crown, his memories of her were also in pieces...

"You're holding mom's crown again, huh..." he swam over and sat down next to me. I nodded slowly.

"You...never really told me much about her...what was she like?..." he asked. I could already feel a lump beginning to form in my throat. I've tried many times to tell him about her, but every time I tried, I broke down in tears.

"She's...difficult to describe...you'd have to get to know her in order to fully understand who and what she is..." I said. "But...if I had to describe her...then..." I tightened my grip around the crown pieces and chuckled to myself.

An image of her face and that gorgeous smile of hers resurfaced to the top of my brain, which brought tears to my eyes.

"She was talented...beautiful...and overall...extraordinary..." I choked out those words as my tears floated up to the ceiling and mixed with the ocean water. Trollex smiled at me and tried his best to wipe my tears away.

"She sounds fantastic, dad..." he said. I put my hands on his shoulders and stared at him. He had his mother's vibrant, green eyes...

"She'd be so proud of you..." I whispered.
