Bridge of Light
This is the chapter that Trollex finally sings that song to Queen Annika in the pot!!!
A/N: Sorry about changing the song.
Chef Dorsal threw Queen Annika, her friends, and the rest of her people into a pot and locked it up.
Former King Coral and Queen Marine swam up to their daughter and engulfed her in a hug.
But, it's almost like she didn't want the hug...
King Coral: Annika!! Thank goodness you're safe!!
Queen Annika backed away from her parents the moment they let go and gave a smile that didn't reach her eyes.
Queen Annika: (sarcastically) I'm doing just dandy, Daddy. I got everyone I love thrown in a pot ready to be eaten by Queen Fiona and the whole Shark Kingdom as well as proving that I'm a horrible queen. Thanks for asking, how do you think I feel?
All of the Techno Trolls were in shock to hear their princess/queen speak this way.
It seemed...impossible!!
BDB: Annika, are you being...sarcastic?
Queen Annika: YES!! WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM, A DUMMY?! NO WAY!!!
Everyone gasped in shock at how their Queen was acting and her outburst.
All of her emotions of fear, anger, discouragement, and despair were finally coming to light.
Techno Trolls: (gasp!)
Queen Annika: (dejected) I'm so sorry, everyone. Really, I am. I don't know why I thought that I could save you all. All I wanted to do was keep everyone safe like you did, Mom. Daddy. But I couldn't!
Queen Marine: Sweetie...
Queen Annika: (dejected) I let everyone down. I couldn't even stop one of our own from betraying us.
She swam to the middle of the pot, sat on her tail, and wrapped her arms around herself tightly.
And it looked like she was on the verge of crying.
Isabella: But, Queen Annika. You didn't let any of us down. If anything, we were the ones that were wrong to think you weren't going to come save us. You proved that you are more than worthy of being the Queen of Techno.
Everyone else nodded in agreement, but it didn't have any effect on Queen Annika.
Queen Annika: I don't care because it's not true. What kind of queen am I if I can't protect those close to me?
As soon as she spoke those words, Queen Annika started turning grey.
Seeing their Queen turn grey, all of the Techno Trolls turned gray in hopelessness.
Her Trollex was the only one who didn't turn grey, but he knew that he had to help Queen Annika feel better and restore her hope.
Trollex:
Just when you think
Hope is lost
(the Techno Trolls in front of Trollex stepped aside and allowed him to swim in front of Queen Annika. He cupped her cheek and made her look at him)
And giving up
Is all you got,
Blue turns black,
Your confidence is cracked,
There seems no turning back from here
Sometimes there isn't an obvious explanation
Why the holiest hearts can feel the strongest palpitations
That's when you can build a bridge of light,
That's what turns the wrongs all right
That's when you can't give up the fight
That's when love turns nighttime into day,
That's when loneliness goes away,
That's why you gotta be strong tonight,
Only love can build us a bridge of light
(The pot started moving, startling everyone a little.
Trollex took Annika's hands and made her swim upright)
When your feet are made of stone
You're convinced that you're all alone
Look at the stars instead of the dark
You'll find your heart shines like the sun
Let's not let our anger get us lost
And the need to be right comes at way too high a cost
That's when love can build a bridge of light
That's what turns the wrongs all right
That's when you know it's worth the fight
That's when love turns nighttime into day
That's when loneliness goes away,
That's why you gotta be strong tonight
'Cause only love can build us a bridge of light
(
Trollex gestured to Annika's tail fins and she saw that they were glowing, meaning her colors were returning. Through the next verses of the song, Annika smiled brightly and admired her regained colors.)
(Queen Annika perked up and turned around, happy that Trollex felt the same way for her as she did for him. She took his hand and they waltzed around the pot, restoring everyone's colors)
Deep breath, take it on the chin
Queen Annika:
But don't forget
B
oth:
To let love back in
That's when love can build a bridge of light
That's what turns the wrongs all right
That's when you can't give up the fight
That's when love turns nighttime into day,
That's when loneliness goes away
That's why you gotta be strong tonight
'Cause only love can build us a bridge of light
Only love can build us a bridge of light
Of light, of light
Queen Annika and Trollex shared a hug and broke apart.
Then, Annika looked at her crown and noticed that it was glowing, meaning that she found her heart song.
Suddenly, the lid of the pot opened to reveal....
Oooh!! Cliffhanger!! Who do you think opened the pot?
A: Finn
B: Chef Dorsal
