Annika, still at age 24, was throwing her first party.

Then her parents came out, telling everyone to gather around as they had an announcement to make.

BDB came out of the set to join the Royal Family and started glowing with excitement.

Today is the day where Annika is crowned Queen of the Techno Trolls.

They are on a neon green coral with everyone around it.

Then, King Coral made his speech...

King Coral: We've been your rulers for many years now, and we've taken really good care of you all. But sadly, it's our time to retire. But, you have a new ruler, one that'll look after you all and protect our kingdom. We now introduce your new Queen, our daughter. Queen Annika Trollex of the Techno Trolls.

The new Queen Annika swam up to her parents and leaned her head down.

Her mother placed her coral circlet on her head, and when she lifted her head back up, she hugged her parents who were smiling proudly now that their little girl was all grown up.

Then she turned to her people and made her speech...

(Queen Annika Trollex's crown and hair after her coronation. A/N: Her hair gained different colored streaks. What Queen Annika doesn't know is that when she finds her true love and her heart song, the starfish and jewels on her crown will glow and transform her into the true Queen of the Techno Trolls)

Queen Annika: And now, as your new queen, it is my sworn duty that I will protect you all from any danger and take care of you if you have any problems to take care of. And that is a promise that I'm going to keep. Please, I may be your new Queen, but it doesn't mean that I am better than you. Think of me as a mother figure who will take charge when it is necessary. It is an honor to be your Queen.

The crowd of Techno Trolls and her parents cheered after hearing this from their new ruler.

Now, it's time for the big party to celebrate the newly crowned Queen in her honor.

Then, BDB swam up to her...

BDB: *sparkling with excitement* OOOH!! DUDE!! Congrats, girl! You're now the new queen of Techno! How awesome is that?! And, your birthday is in a few weeks, right?

Queen Annika: *chuckles* I know, right?! I'm the Techno Queen now! I'm so excited that I don't even know what to say. Oh, wait! Yes, I do! And that's...

Annika swam up to her brand new DJ set, BDB following her, and said...

Queen Annika: WASSUP MY TECHNO TROLLS?!?! WHO'S READY TO PARTY!!!

The crowd jumped with excitement as they heard those words from their new queen.

Queen Annika looked at her parents, who were watching with proud smiles.

Queen Annika looked back at her people and then...DROPPED THE BEAT!!!

But, what they didn't know was that after that beat drop, far away from Techno Reef, was a cave.

But within the cave, was none other than Chef Dorsal, who's been banished from the Shark Kingdom for 24 years.

She had dead fish bones all around her cave, her cooking supplies and her exploring gear.

She heard the loud music and looked through her telescope.

She thought she heard or saw something, but then Dorsal saw huge flashes of neon lights in the shape of Queen Annika.

A toothy grin appeared on her face...

Chef Dorsal: *evilly smirks* Trolls!

The Techno Trolls were having an amazing time with Annika as their Queen.

She has truly shown everyone that she's caring, responsible and an awesome DJ queen.

She thought she couldn't have been happier, but she saw a dark shadow approaching while everyone was dancing.

So, she stopped the music. Everyone wanted the party to keep going, until they all followed their frightened queen's gaze with terrified looks.

Before them was Chef Dorsal, the former chef of the Shark Kingdom.

Chef Dorsal: Gotcha.

Navy Blue Troll: *toots out bubbles*

Everyone around him: 😐?!

But as Chef Dorsal swung her net and started capturing a bunch of Trolls, Annika saw the commotion with a frightened look on her face.

But, her fear melted in confidence and determination.

She made a promise to her people that she will protect them at all costs.

And protecting her people she will, even if it meant putting herself in danger.

She told everyone to hide and they did.

They hid under rocks, coral, or settling for camouflage.

Some of them were captured when they were about to hide, though.

Chef Dorsal noticed King Coral and Queen Marine and her smirk started to widen a bit more.

She suddenly lifted up her net, but Annika was able to notice that her parents were about to get caught just in time.

Queen Annika: MOM!! DADDY!!

Queen Annika pulled them out the way and hid under a rock.

The Chef followed them, and saw that no one was even there.

Queen Annika's heart started to beat when she thought that she's going to find them.

Chef Dorsal let out a shrug and looked around the empty reef.

Chef Dorsal: Thanks for throwing the biggest, loudest, craziest party ever! Now, I must be going. I have dinner to make, back in Shark Kingdom.

As she swam away from the reef, everyone including the Royal Family came out of their hiding spots.

Everyone started to get scared and swam towards Annika to know what they're going to do now.

Pink Troll: What are we going to do now?!

Olive Troll: She kidnapped our friends and family!!

Violet Troll: I'm scared!!

Queen Annika calmed her panicking subjects, looked at the other side of the reef, then to her parents.

She swam off towards them...

Queen Annika: I know what I'm going to do. But, I need to leave Techno Reef.

Queen Marine: What?! Annika, I've asked you to never go outside the reef.

Queen Annika: I know. But Mom, I'm a Queen now and my subjects need me. I pledged my loyalty to them, and they pledged their loyalty to me. I made another promise that as the Techno Queen, I must protect my people. They entrusted their lives to me and I'm not going to break that trust. Even if it means breaking our promise or putting myself at risk, then so be it. I'd rather die than see my subjects perish before their time comes. I'm sorry, Mom. But I have to save them.

Her parents looked at each other, then back at their daughter.

Both of them were surprised and moved by her declaration.

King Coral: Sweetheart, even though you're going to be going in dangerous Shark territory, we know that going out there to save our people is what a brave queen would do. So, we will let you go out there to save them.

Annika hugged her father, but looked at her mother who had a sad look on her face.

She sighed...

Queen Marine: *puts her hands on her daughter's shoulders* I love you, and I don't want anything happening to you, but... I want you to do what's right for you. And going outside the reef and saving everyone from the Sharks, is what I will allow you to do.

Annika hugged her mother with great support and went into the castle to pack some supplies.

As soon as she was about to exit the reef, she heard a voice chasing after her.

It was BDB, her new friend.

Queen Annika: BDB? What are you doing?

BDB: I'm going to help you.

Queen Annika: But, I don't want you to get hurt.

BDB: I know that. But I want to help you. You may not know when you need help, so, I'm coming with you. Besides, who's going to keep you out of trouble?

Queen Annika let out a smile.

She started swimming away with BDB following her.

With her parents, Queen Marine looked at her daughter leaving, hoping that she'll return with their captured subjects.
