~5 Minutes Of Chaos Later~

After The Worldwide Broadcast Of Declaring Christmas & The Holidays Being "Canceled" Across The Whole Troll Kingdom, Due To The Confetti-Yeti, The Pop Trolls All Freaked Out In The Most Pop-Trollest Way.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
The Pop Trolls All Screamed Together And Scattered Around Running In A Chaotic Fashion.

"NO MORE CHRISTMAS?!?!?"
One Of The Trolls Shouted As They Pulled Their Ears In Disbelief.

"NO MORE HOLIDAY SEASON?!?!?"
Another One Of The Trolls Shouted As They Pulled Their Hair In Disbelief.

"ANNND THERE'S A CUTE VICIOUS YETI ON THE LOOSE!!!"
One Other Pop Troll Yelled As He Hugged Himself In Worry.

"GET ME THE GOVERNMENT-"
A Random Troll Yelled Into His Snailphone Before Running To Jump Off A Cliff In Panic.

Poppy Tried To Calm Down Her Pop Trolls From Complete Panic.
"HEY HEYYYY EVERYONE PLEASE! YOU NEED TO REMAIN CALM! I Just Assured You And I'll Do It Again, THAT THERE IS NO CONFETTI-YETI! NONE!"

John Dory Chuckled And Wrapped His Arm Over Poppy's Side.
"Ha Ha Haaa Poppy Seed Poppy Seed Poppy Seed 😊......DID YOU NOT HEAR MY STORY AND SEE MY PROOF FROM LAST CHAPTER??!"

"PLUS POPPY, IT WAS ON TNN! THE LITERAL NEWS STATION!"
Harper Gestured Up At The Large TV Up Top.

"AND THE NEWS NEVER LIES!"
Aspen Added On.

"Biased ☝️"
Smidge Blurted Out To Herself.

As The Trolls Murmured Some More, Branch Was Hidden In The Crowd Glancing At The Worry And Concerned Trolls, Feeling The Immediate Regret Of His Most Recent Plan For His Mission.

"Not To Mention, It Attacked Vacay Island! Like The News Said, It's Unfortunately Probably For The Best The Holidays Get Put On Hold"
Bruce Told To Poppy.

"And If EVERY Troll Kingdom Tribe Leader Agrees, Then You Should Too Poppy Seed! THE HOLIDAYS ARE OFF PEOPLE AND I'M GOING AFTER THE YETI BEAST MYSELF!"
John Dory Shouted To The Crowd Of Pop Trolls.

Branch's Insticts Reacted And Quickly Stood In Front Of The Crowd.
"BUT YOU CAN'T!"

"...."
Everyone Turned To Branch Stepping Up, Wondering Why He Decided To.

"And Why Can't I Branch? 🤨"
John Dory Questioned His Baby Brother, Suspiciously.

"😳 Uhhhhh..."
Branch Instantly Got Tongue Tied And Nervous To Even Reply, As He Was Guilty.

Behind John Dory And Bruce, As They Were Staring At Branch, Poppy Tried To Make Hand Motions Signaling Boyfriend To Confess And Explain The Truth To Everyone.

Branch Fiddled With His Fingers, Not Wanting To Admit.
"👉👈 Cause Uhhhhh....It Might Not Be Good Confetti-Yeti Hunting Weather? 😁"

"Branch, My Man, The Yeti LOVESSS The Winter Snow So I'm BOUND TO FIND HIM DEEP IN THE WOODS AND ELIMINATE HIM!"
John Dory Said And Announced Proudly To The Trolls.

"Oh No.."
Branch Said Under His Breath, Getting Some Worrysome Anxiety.

"OH NO-"
Poppy Grabbed Her Head In Panic, Also Getting A Hint Of Anxiety.

"OH YEEEEAAAAHHH!! 🧃"
Toby Jumped In The Middle Out Of Nowhere, With A Kool-Aid Pitcher Full Of Juice.

"......"
The Trolls Didn't Know How To React To Whatever Toby Just Did And Blankly Stared At Him.

"Oh- Sorry I Thought We Were Doing Uh...Reference...My Bad Troll Braaahss Ahahaaaaa"
Toby Backed Out Of The Scene Awkwardly.

Poppy Cleared Her Throat To Continue.
"Ahem, Anyboo- EVERYONE CALM THE SUGAR-FLIP DOWN! There Really Isn't No Need For A Worldwide Panic Over This Confetti-Yeti! Trust Me!"

Suddenly, As Poppy Said That, The Camera Crew And Newscasters From "TNN" Came To Pop Village And Through The Crowd Of Pop Trolls, As Reporters Jonas & Lee Made Their Way To Everyone.

Jonas Spoke Into His Microphone And To The Glowbug Camera.
"This Is Jonas & Lee Reporting From TNN, As We Report Here Live From Pop Village In Which Was The Location From The Worldwide Panic Of The Mysterious And EVIL Confetti-Yeti!"

Branch Gulped At That As He Mumbled Under His Breath.
"Evil?!"

Lee Took Over The Broadcast.
"As We Stand Here Live, We're Here With Pop Village's Queen Poppy And The Pop Locals On The Whereabouts Of This Mysterious Winter Beast! What Can You Tell Us About The Confetti-Yeti Queen Poppy?"

Poppy Awkwardly Stood In Front Of The Microphone And Camera.
"😳 Uh...Well Uh...We Um...Areeee Disregarding The Confetti-Yeti Sightings Because We're All Just Jacked Up On Holiday Flavored Binkies? 😁"

Tiny Diamond Took Out His Holiday Binkie He Was Sucking On.
"Well I Feel Judged-"

Jonas Took The Spotlight Of The Newscaster.
"Whoa Whoa Back Up There Maple Syrup Partner- We Should Be Asking Queen Poppy The Real Questions Here"

"Which Is? -.-"
Lee Glared At Their Partner.

"Ahemememem...WHERE IS THE CONFETTI-YETI LURKING AND WHERE CAN I CHEER HIM ON AT?!?!? WOOOO! CONFETTI-YETI FOR LIFEEEEE!! 🗣‼️"
Jonas Yelled Loudly Into His Microphone.

Lee Turned Back To The Glow Bug Camera.
"As You Can See Everyone Watching Live, That My Broadcast Partner Is PART Of The Problem"

"Don't Hate Me Cause You Ain't Be Buddy 🙄 You're Just Jealous Of The Confetti-Yeti Having WAAAAY More Aura Than You 😌"
Jonas Said Proudly Into His Microphone.

Lee Glared At Their Partner Until They Got An Idea.
".....Hey Uh Excuse Me, John Dory Right?"

"That Is Right News Troll With Antlers!"
John Dory Replied Back.

"You Mentioned That You Plan On Voluntarily Hunting Down The Menacing Confetti Filled Beast Amrite?"
Lee Questioned John Dory.

"That Is Correct! I Plan On Giving It A Cube Sized BEAT DOWN FOR RUINING ALL CHRISTMAS FOR TROLL KINGDOM! 👊"
John Dory Punched His Fist Into His Palm.

"Care To Demonstrate That Beat Down On My Delightful TNN Partner Over Here? 👀"
Lee Gestured Over At Jonas.

"Pardon?"
Jonas Said With An Eyebrow Raise.

"Gladly~ YAAAAHHHH!!"
John Dory Tackled Jonas And Demonstrated A Beat Down Method.

"BULLSHIT- GET THE THE HELL OFF ME MAN BREATH OW OW-"
Jonas Yelped Out As John Dory Attacked Him On The Ground.

"HA HA! TAKE THAT CONFETTI-YETI! HAHAAA YAH! WA-TAH! 👊🤜"
John Dory Fought And Attempted To Tie Up Jonas In The Process.

"Ooh! Aah.."
The Pop Trolls Reacted To John Dory's Violent Nature Over On Jonas.

Lee Smirked At That And Turned Back To The Glowbug Camera.
"Well There You Have It Folks! The Confetti-Yeti Is Sure In For A Beat Down Surprise!"

"DAMN YOU LEE-"
Jonas Shouted Out In Pain As He Was Tied Up To The Ground.

John Dory Stood Back Up And Dusted Off His Hands.
"WOO! What A Work Out! See How It's DONE TROLL KINGDOM?! THE CONFETTI-YETI WON'T KNOW WHAT HIT HIM! Would You Describe My Muscles As Swoll Or SHREDEDDD? 💪"

"Origami Swollen-"
Lee Blurted Out Casually.

"YEAH! Wait-"
John Dory Realized What That Meant.

Lee Turned Back To The Glowbug Camera.
"As Of Now, The Christmas And Holiday Season Is Officially Canceled For The Entire Troll Kingdom. If You Have Any Sightings Or Whereabouts Of The Confetti-Yeti, Please Give Us A Call! I'm Lee From TNN, Live From Pop Village, Later Troll Kingdom!"

"JONAS TOO!!!"
Jonas Screamed Out Loud To Get Attention As Well.

With The Newscast Over From TNN, The Pop Trolls All Sadly And Disappointedly Walked Off To The Pods Too Upset Over The News Of The Holidays Being Canceled.

Seeing All The Trolls Walk Off In Sadness, Branch Had A Guilty And Regretful Look On His Face Knowing His Plans Were The Cause Of Everything, As He Didn't Mean To Ruin THE WHOLE KINGDOM'S Christmas.

Bruce Came Up To John Dory.
"John? Are You Really Going Up To That Beast Alone To Hunt It?"

"Of Course I Am Brother! No Yeti Of Confetti Stuffed Up It's Ass Is Gonna Terrorize This Village! I SHALL NOT ALLOW IT! NOT MY VILLAGE! NOT TODAY!"
John Dory Declared In A Determined Tone.

Bruce Blinked Awkwardly At That Response.
"Could've Worded That First Part Better But-"

Poppy Immediately Rushed To Branch, Urging Him To Speak Up.
"Braaaanccchhhh.."

"I Know I Know!"
Branch Replied Back To His Girlfriend.

"If You Know Then MAKE IT RIGHT!"
Poppy Demanded Of Her Boyfriend.

"Do You Really Think It's THAT Easy To Just Confess To Everyone That hEy gUys, iM tHe cOnfEtTi-yeTi! aHyuCk!"
Branch Said In A Mocking Goofy Voice.

"Hm- YES!"
Poppy Instantly Said Back.

"Mmmmmm- JOHN! WAIT!"
Branch Ran Towards John Dory And Bruce, With Poppy By His Side.

"Branch! Brother You And Poppy Seed Need To Seek Shelter For Tonight As I'm Hunting Down That Confetti Monster! Bruce, Your Family As Well!"
John Dory Told The Three.

"Yeah Uhhh About That And This Whole Confetti-Yeti Thing Heh....Kinda A Funny Storyyyy 👉👉"
Branch Said Using Joking Finger Guns.

"What Can Be Funny About A Raging Rampaging Monster That Roars Out Poisonous Confetti?!"
John Dory Said In A Serious Tone.

Branch Rubbed His Neck Nervously, With Strong Guilt.
"Well Um You See....The Confetti-Yeti Isn't Really Uhhh.."

As Branch Struggled To Confess His Words To John Dory And Bruce, The Guilt Was Too Strong Inside As He Feared The Worse Of Having Anxiety About The Anger His Brothers And Every Other Troll Would Have On Him For Ruining Things.

"Isn'tttttt...Entirelyyyyy....Male? 😁"
Branch Made Up On The Spot.

"Huh????"
Poppy, Bruce And John Dory All Say At The Same Time Confused.

"Y-Yeah! Cause It Could Be A Female Confetti-Yeti Too! Or Maybe It Has No Gender! Can't Be Gender Biased Ya Knowww Ha Haaa..."
Branch Playfully Awkwardly Punched John Dory's Shoulder.

".....Yes I Guess That's Rather Funny 🤔 BUT CATCHING THIS BEAST IS NO LAUGHING MATTER! AS FOR TONIGHT....I HUNT AND SLAY THIS BEAST AND ALL IT'S CONFETTI ORGANS!"
John Dory Dashed Off In A Green And Square-ish Blur.

"JOHN WAITTT-"
Branch Was About To Follow His Older Brother.

"I Gotta Go Too Guys.."
Bruce Turned Around And Began To Walk Off.

"Where Are You Going Bruce?!"
Branch Turned Back Around.

"To Vacay Island! We Have To All Take Immediate Precautions And Plus, I Have To Calm Down My Kids And Comfort Them"
Bruce Explained To The Two.

"Cause Of The Confetti-Yeti?"
Poppy Asked And Wondered.

Bruce Sighed And Explained More.
"That And Most Importantly Of Christmas Being Canceled And Pretty Much Taken Away From Them! They Always Look Forward To A Tropical Holiday Every Year....Now They Have Nothing To Look Forward To This Season.."

"Oh...Yeah.."
Branch Rubbed His Arm As His Ears Drooped Down In Guilt.

"Maybe The Confetti-Yeti DIDN'T Steal And Ruin The Decorations In Vacay Island Hmmm?"
Poppy Said To Bruce, As She Side Eyed Branch In A Sassy Way.

"Well Beast Or Not, LaBreezey Mentioned That, Before She Fell Asleep, She Said She Set Traps On Whoever Took Our Decorations, Even Electrocuting The Doorknob Onto The Palm Of A Hand With My Restaurants Logo On It!"
Bruce Told Poppy And Branch.

"Oh! 😳 Uh- Odd.."
Poppy Cleared Her Throat And Sneakily Put Her Hand Behind Her Back Of The Electric Marking On Her Palm.

"Though Could Be Just Kids Imagination- Who Knows?"
Bruce Shrugged To Himself.

"YEP! YEP! FOR SURE! UH HUH! 😶😶"
Poppy And Branch Both Nodded As They Kept It To Themselves.

Bruce Raised His Eyebrow At That.
"Well Anyways, I'll Catch You Guys Later...And Uh Branch?"

"Yeah?"
Branch Replied Back To His Brother.

Bruce Put His Hand On Branch's Shoulder, Comfortingly.
"I'm Sorry That We Couldn't Do The Broliday This Year And Even Worse...The Holidays Canceled In General...You Deserved A Good Christmas This Year, As Well The Rest Of Our Family. Whether It Was The Broliday Or Not"

As Bruce Patted Branch's Shoulder And Walked Off To Vacay Island, The Words Told To Branch Stayed In His Head As It Was Comforting But Also True That The Holidays Would Still Be The Holidays, Even If It Was The Broliday Or Not, As Long As The Family Had Love For One Another Together.

Poppy Took A Step Over To Her Boyfriend, To Check On Him.
"Branch...?"

Branch Glanced Over At His Girlfriend, With His Ears Down.
"Poppy.....I-"

Before Branch Could Finish His Sentence, Clay Marched Pass Them In An Angry And Upset Way, As He Could Be Heard Mumbling Firmly To Himself, Seeming Furious Over Something.

"Clay? Are You Alright Man?"
Branch Spoke Up And Asked Curiously.

Clay Stopped And Turned Around To His Brother And Poppy.
"Alright?! OHHHH THAT'S THE BIGGEST UNDERSTATEMENT RIGHT NOW BRO! I'm Having The WORSE Day Possible!"

"What Happend?!"
Poppy Asked, Sounding Concerned.

Clay Began To Explain.
"You Guys Know My Depressing Literature Session Holiday Spectacular I Was Supposed To Host 2 Days Ago?"

"Yeahhhhh..?"
Poppy And Branch Both Say In Sync As They Listened To Clay.

"Well Turns Out Someone HATES ME CAUSE I'VE BEEN FRAMED FOR PULLING PRANKS ON MY FELLOW SAD CLUB MEMBERS AND NOT ONLY DID THEY NOT ALLOW ME TO HOST...They Kicked Me Out Of The Sad Book Club 🥺"
Clay's Face Immediately Got Sadden With Cutsey Eyes.

"They WHAT?!?!"
Poppy And Branch Reacted In The Same Shocked Way.

"THAT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN-"
Branch Suddenly Blurted Out.

"Huh?"
Clay Raised His Eyebrow At That.

"....I MEAN UH- Ahem, That's Horrible They Would Kick You Out Bro"
Branch Cleared His Throat Innocently.

"That's Another Understatement Word Bro! Not Only That, But Now I Hear CHRISTMAS IS CANCELED FOR SOME SICK CONFETTI BEAST?! How Can The Holidays Possibly Get Worse?!?"
Clay Crossed His Arms, Turning Away Pouting.

"Awe Clay, I'm So Sorry! You Truly Didn't Deserve That! Right Branch-"
Poppy Rubbed Clay's Back As She Side Eyed Branch.

"Yeah...He Didn't.."
Branch Grew A Frown Upon His Face, Guilty For Ruining His Middle Brother's Place In The Sad Book Club.

"It Really Hurts When You're Trying To Be Comfortable In A New Phase Of Your Life With Being Serious, Then Someone Just Frames You For Silly Nonsense That Makes You Look Like...People Never Change.."
Clay's Ears Drooped Down As He Said.

Branch Sighed As He About To Spoke Up.
"Hhhh...Clay....This Wasn't Supposed To-"

Before Branch Could Finish His Statement To Clay, A Soft Crying Sound Came As It Was Nearby Coming From Floyd, Who Was Walking Through The Snow Alone With Tears Leaking Down His Face.

"Floyd?! Are You Okay?! What's Wrong!?"
Branch Said Sounding Worried.

"What Happened?!"
Poppy Asked Also Alongside.

Floyd Glanced Up At The Two And Tried Wiping His Tears.
"O-Oh, H-Hey Branch, Poppy....N-Nothing Just Um...Creating Frozen Tear-cicles 😣"

"Anyyyyy Particular Reason?"
Branch Questioned His Sensitive Brother.

Floyd Sniffed Before Shouting Out Loud In A Sob.
"😖....BOOM BROKE UP WITH MEEEEEE! 😭💔"

"HE WHAT?!?!?"
Poppy And Branch Were Taken Aback By That Answer From Floyd.

"Turns Out, He Was STILL Mad Over Those Flyers Of Other Trolls Coming To Carol With Me THAT I DIDN'T EVEN MAKE! He Called Me A Liar, And A Cheater, AND SAID WE NOW HAVE FOREVER BEEF WITH EACH OTHER!"
Floyd Explained To The Two As Tears Came Down.

"HE SAID THAT?!"
Branch Said To His Brother.

"YEAH- Well First He Questioned What Type Of Meat Beef He Meant Then I Had To Clarify To Him That It Was Angry Type Beef-"
Floyd Added On.

"Makes Sense"
Poppy Shrugged To Herself.

"And Before I Knew It- WE WERE BREAKING UPPPPP 😭😖😣"
Floyd Broke Out Into More Tears.

"Awe Floyd.."
Poppy Immediately Went To Hug Floyd For Comfort.

"Floyd Man...I Didn't Mean For It To Result Into That.."
Branch Blurted Out Without Realizing.

Floyd Parted From Poppy's Hug And Wiped Some Of His Tears.
"Y-You Didn't Meant What To Result?"

"UHHH- I MEAN UM...I Didn't Know Boom Eating Skittles Would Result In His Hair Getting More...Rainbow-y?"
Branch Tried To Make Up On The Spot.

"Taste The Rainbow I Guess-"
Poppy Blurted Out To Herself.

Floyd Sniffed Again And Got Teary Eyed With More Waterworks, Covering His Face.
"Boom Loved Rainbows 🥺...AND SKITTLESSSS!! 😖"

"Great! Now Floyd Is Dealing With A Broken Heart DURING CHRISTMAS! What Kind Of Holiday Is This...We Didn't Deserve Any Of It!"
Clay Said With An Attitude And Crossed His Arms.

"No...You Didn't..."
Branch Rubbed His Fingers With The Worse Feeling Of Guilt And Regret Upon All He Has Done To Ruin His Brother's Holiday Plans.

Wanting To Speak Up But Not Wanting His Brothers To Get Angry At Him, Branch Had His Anxiety Level High On If Confessing Would Make Things Better Or Worse, As He Didn't Want To Ruin His Reunion Relationship With His Brothers, After Just Getting Them Back In His Life.

Branch Deeply Sighed As He Tried To Speak Up In A Low Tone.
"Listen Guys....I-"

"I'M OUTTA HERE!"
Clay Marched Somewhere Else To Be Upset And Disappointed About His Sad Book Club.

"I Need To Cry In Peace Guys...Sorry.."
Floyd Said As He Walked Away Trying To Wipe Away His Uncontrollable Tears.

"Wait Guys! I'M-....Hhh...I'm Sorry 😞"
Branch Said Quietly To Himself, Not Loud Enough For Anyone To Hear As His Two Brothers Walked Away.

Poppy Rubbed Her Arm As She Then Walked Up To Her Boyfriend.
"Heyyyy....Hey Mister, It's Gonna Be Alright. I Know Your Heart Was In The Right Place, It Wasn't Your Intention To- Well- Ruin Their Lives"

"It's Gonna Be Alright? Like You Said, I Just Ruined My Brothers Lives, Not Holiday, But Lives And YOU Think It'll Be Alright?!"
Branch Said, In A Defense Tone At His Girlfriend.

"I'm Sorry, Was Just Trying To Comfort You.."
Poppy Backed Away A Little.

"Comfort Isn't What I Need Right Now Poppy! I Need To Fix Things But Even If I Do, I Can Possibly Lose My Brothers AGAIN In The Process!"
Branch Began To Get Frustrated In His Wording.

"Like I Said, Your Heart Was In The Right Place, But Your Mind Wasn't Branch! I Told You From The Beginning This Could Backfire, But You Didn't Listen.."
Poppy Said As He Ears Began To Droop.

"Don't Try To Blame This On Me Poppy! You Went Along For The Ride Anyway To Help Me! So Don't Stand Here And Just Put The Fault ALLLLL On Me!"
Branch Said In a Firm Attitude.

"Yeah! I Went Along For The Ride To Help You, Cause This Was Something That Meant Something To You! I Was Just Trying To Be Supportive, Even If It Was YOUR Wrong Doings, I STILL STOOD BY YOU! And What Do I Get From You In Return?! ATTITUDE AND GETTING UPSET AT ME WHEN I JUST WANTED TO HANG WITH MY BOYFRIEND!"
Poppy Shouted At Branch As Her Voice Cracked A Little.

Branch Immediately Got Hit With Realization As He Got Quiet From His Girlfriend's Outburst, Finally Getting The Sense Of Why Poppy Even Helped Him Out In The First Place With His Mission.

"That's Why You Helped Me..?"
Branch Said In A Soft Voice.

"It's Like You Said Once To Me Before...The Best Part About The Holidays Is Just Being Together...Me And You But...I Guess You Had Other Plans This Year For This Mission Of Yours.."
Poppy Said As She Tried To Hold Back Tears From Being Hurt.

Branch Tried To Step Up To Poppy.
"Poppy...If I Had Known And Only Stuck To My Word I Would've-"

Poppy Tried To Smile But Couldn't.
"It's Okay Branch....Regardless If This Mission Was For The Wrong Idea, I Still Took The Chance To Spend Time With You And Think Of All I Wanted To Do This Season...But I Guess The Broliday Was More Important...But I Can't Blame You, They Are Your Brothers And You Deserved To Be Together With Them"

"But The Broliday Isn't A Broliday If I Don't Have All My Loved Ones With Me To Celebrate...Especially You.."
Branch Told Poppy, Attempting To Grab Her Hand To Hold It.

Poppy Took Her Hand Away Gently, Still Feeling Hurt.
"....After All That's Happened These Past Two Days...I Don't Feel Like That's The Case...It Was More Happiness And Excitement On The Mission Than On Spending The Time With Me.."

Seeing How Hurt His Girlfriend Is For The Aftermath Of Everything, Branch Just Backed Off Away From Poppy And Wrapped His Scarf On, Placing His Hands In His Pockets And Walking Off Sadly To His Bunker.

Standing Still, Poppy Was Still Hurt By Her Boyfriend's Actions On Focusing On A Mission Than Her, But Overall Felt Bad For Branch As All He Wanted Was His Family Together Home For The Holidays.

Coming Over To The Area Unaware Of Everything, Viva Rushed Over To Her Sister Excitedly As She Written Her Song Gift For Poppy And Held It Sneakily In Her Hand.

"LIL SISSSSSSS!! EEEE!! GUESS WHAAAAT~
Viva Said With A Grin As She Held Her Hands Behind Her Back.

"Oh...Hey Big Sis.."
Poppy Turned To Viva In An Unenthusiastic Way.

Viva Noticed Her Sister Acting Off And Questioned It.
"Poppy? Are You Okay? Why Do You Seem...Sour Candy? Where Is Everyone?

"Well It Seems Like Christmas Is Canceled This Year Veev.."
Poppy Told To Her Older Sister.

"Wait WHAT?!?!?!??!"@<@&!"
Viva Yelled Out Loudly In Disbelief.

"That And Worse, Me And Branch Just Got Into A Big Argument That's Leaving Both Of Us Hurt So...I Don't Wanna Talk About It Or In The Mood For Holiday Season Energy.."
Poppy Said As She Began To Walk Off Sadly.

Viva Stood In Shock As She Held Up Her Written Song.
"B-B-But! Christmas Can't Be Canceled! I Finally Figured Out A Solution And Wanted To Finally Give It To Someone Special! Poppy Wait!"

"Not Right Now Sis...Please...I'll See You Later.."
Poppy Told Her Sister As She Continued To Walk Away.

Viva Gripped Her Song Sheet As Her Ears Drooped Down, Thinking She Failed.
"I-It....It Can't Be...Too Late 😟"

Viva Sighed Deepily And Disappointedly To Herself, As She Dropped Her Song Sheet On The Snow, Thinking She Failed Her Mission To Get Her Sister A Gift As It Was Too Late For A Christmas Gift And Seemed Pointless Now That The Holidays Is Canceled All Around.

~~~

~~~

Coming Down In The Bunker, As A Sad Guitar Holiday Medley Sound Played In The Background, Branch Went To Walk Around His Bunker, Looking Back At All The Planning This Backfire Caused His Mission And For Christmas.

Turning Around, Branch Went Up To His Overly Elaborated Vision Board, Realizing How Insane It Looked For Him To Plan Out How To Ruin The Holidays For Each Brother Of His.

Branch Reflected On His Horrible Plans, As He Began To Sing.
🎵 How could I be naughty when
I thought I'd been so nice..? 🎵

Over In Her Pod, As Poppy Was Alone In Her Own Living Room As She Glanced At All Her Holiday Decorations, She Felt They All Had No Meaning Anymore Since Christmas Was Canceled And Branch Wasn't Happy Enough To Celebrate With Her.

Poppy Picked Up One Of Her Plastic Snowflakes, Singing Along To Herself.
🎵 Could I have been blinded
to some little hidden vice..? 🎵

Meanwhile Outside In The Snow, As The Snowflakes Fell Down Upon Her, Viva Was Reflecting On Her Mission To Give Poppy The Best Christmas Song Gift But Ending Up Failing And Being Too Late To Come Up With An Idea Sooner.

Viva Held The Song Sheet In Her Hand As She Was Also Singing.
🎵 Did my vision of sister joy
not dance like they should..? 🎵

Branch Broke In Half His Pointing Stick For His Vision Board.
🎵 I'm racking my brain here!
I really thought I was good.. 🎵

In Their Own Separate Places, Branch, Poppy, And Viva Looked Up In The Air To Act As If They Were Speaking To Santa Claus Directly In Their Song.

🎵 I know you got that list..
And I know you check it twiiiice! 🎵

🎵 But could you check it again
cause it seems to me
we were all pretty niceeee.. 🎵

As The Three Continued Their Song In Sorrow, Guilt, And Regret, Branch Tore Down His Vision Boards, Poppy Began To Decorate Her Christmas Tree Alone As She Wished Branch Was Beside Her, And Viva Soulfully Singing Her Heart Out In The Snow.

🎵 Where did we
go wrong? 🎵

🎵 Please tell me.. 🎵

🎵 Where did
we go wroooong~ 🎵

🎵 Where did we go-? 🎵

🎵 Woooon't
somebody tell me.. 🎵
Branch And Viva Harmonized Together With Their Voices Matching In Their Sorrow Singing.

🎵 Where did
we go wroooong..? 🎵

~~~

~~~

~In The Bunker~

After Everything Of His Mission Has Backfired Horribly, Branch Cleaned Up His Bunker By Throwing Away All His Plans Off His Vision Board And Putting Away Everything He's Used To Excute These Plans.

As He Cleaned Up And Dusted Off His Hands, Branch Reflected On All He Has Done To Ruin Christmas For His Brothers, Poppy, And ALL Of The Troll Kingdom, Making Him Feel All Alone On The Holidays Like As He Grew Up Without Anyone For 20 Years.

Going To Take A Seat On His Couch For Silence, Branch Sat Down Until He Felt Something In His Hair Move, As He Took Out From His Hair The Broliday Star He Kept From The Other Day He Found It At His Old Grandmother's Pod.

As Branch Held And Stared More Into The Golden Star From The Broliday, The More He Missed The More Happier Memories Of This Time Of Year, Wishing Things Would Be The Same, But Realizing Things Change Overtime With His Brothers Having New Lives.

With All This Reflecting And Looking Back, It Now Clicked Into Branch's Mind That Even Though His Brothers Gained New Lives Over The Years, And Even Though They Didn't Celebrate The Broliday, That Didn't Matter To Branch After All, As His Only Christmas Wish Was To Be With His Brothers During The Season, Broliday Or Not.

Having This Realization, Branch Went Over To The Platform Of His Elevator And Pulled Up The Lever Slowly, As He Went Up And Passing Each Of His Brother's Rooms In The Bunker, Grateful Of Them Just Being There Was Good Enough For Christmas.

~~~

~Outside~

Coming Out From The Elevator And Onto The Surface Outside In The Snow, Branch Looked Around From Where He Was Standing, Seeing Silhouettes Of Trolls In Their Pods With Their Loves Ones Together, Even Though Christmas Was Canceled, They Still Remained Together.

Gaining A Smile On His Face, Branch Felt It In His Heart That A Song Was Coming Upon His Soul, As He Closed His Eyes And Let His Heartfelt Imagination Take Over This Moment Of Reflect.

In His Mind And Imagination, Branch Envisioned A Ukulele In His Hands, And Looked Out Into The Distance Of The Snow Of Glowing Freeze-Framed Versions Of John Dory, Bruce, Clay, And Floyd Enjoying The Holidays Together.

Branch Began To Softly Play His Ukulele Sang Around The Brotherly Figures In His Mind
🎵 Teeeeell meeee
you'll be thereeeee~ 🎵

🎵 Whenever the snow starts falling, tell me that you'll be calling! 🎵

🎵 Teeeeell meeee
you'll be thereeee~ 🎵

🎵 The only thing on my wish list
is that you'll be home
for Christmas! 🎵

🎵 Tell me you'll be there.. 🎵

As Branch Dived Deeper Into His Soft Ukulele Driven Song, He Danced Gently Around The Hallucinations He Saw Of His Brothers Spending Christmas Together As A Family.

🎵 You've got some cookies
and some eggnog! 🎵
Branch Sang Around A Figure Of Bruce Holding Baked Fluffleberry Gingerbread Cookies.

🎵 Are you with me?
Where you at, bro? 🎵
Branch Sang Around A Figure Of Floyd, Missing His Holiday Comfort.

🎵 I ain't trying to
spend the night alone! 🎵

🎵 Don't be rude,
you ain't Rudolph! 🎵
Branch Chuckled In His Song As He Passed By A Clay Figure Acting Silly.

🎵 I know you felt
all my missed love.. 🎵

🎵 Or did Santa bless
us with a new love? 🎵

🎵 Only one thing on my
Christmas list! 🎵

🎵 Only one if
I only get one wish! 🎵

🎵 Come and make
this Christmas
the Christmasest~ 🎵

🎵 Tell me you'll be,
tell me you'll be there.. 🎵

As Branch Swayed Through His Song Gently, Playing His Imaginary Ukulele, He Smiled And Sang To His Figurative Brothers In His Mind, Wishing They Were Actually There.

🎵 Only one thing
on my Christmas list! 🎵

🎵 Only one if
I only get one wish! 🎵

🎵 Come and make
this Christmas
the Christmasest~ 🎵

🎵 Tell me you'll be,
tell me you'll be there.. 🎵

Branch Came Up To His Imaginative Figure Of John Dory And Sang Towards Him, In A Heartfelt Tone.
🎵 Tell me....you'll be....thereee~ 🎵

As Branch Finished His Song And Closed His Eyes Again, Reality Kicked Back Into His Mind As His Imaginary Ukulele And Visions Of His Brothers Vanished, Making Him Think Of The Right Solution Of What To Do.

~~~

~At The TNN News Station~

Inside Of The Camera Crew Headquarters Of The News, Broadcasters Lee And Jonas Were Cleaning Up Their Desks, Awaiting For Any New News On Anything.

"And Just FYI Partner, I WOULD'VE MAN-HANDLED THAT JOHN DORY! He Was Just...Square Grippy Is All 😒"
Jonas Rolled His Eyes, With An Attitude.

"🤨 Right.."
Lee Said With Their Legs Crossed And Replied In A Sassy Tone.

* r i n g
r i n g *

* r i n g
r i n g *

Lee Grabbed Their Snailphone And Answered The Call.
"Hello?! Hello?! Have You Seen Any Sightings Of The Confetti-Yeti?!"

~~~

Branch, Being The One Who Called From The Bunker, Was Hesitant To Speak.
"U-Uh...Yes Um I Have Seen The Confetti-Yeti And...Well.."

Lee Over The Snailphone: "Yes?! Yes?! Spit It Out!"

Branch Prevented His Anxiety From Taking Over And Confessed.
"It Was....Me....I'm The Confetti-Yeti...In A Costume Disguse"

~~~

Lee Blinked Blanky At Their Snailphone, Confused.
"Excuse Me, What?"

Branch Over The Snailphone: "Yes Ma'am, That's The Truth, You Can Spill The Tea To All Of Your News Team:

Lee Rolled Their Eyes At This.
"Listen dUdE, This Call-line Is Only For Those Who Are Serious Over The Sightings Of The Confetti-Yeti! This Is A Dangerous Matter And Don't Have Time For Games! So I Will Not Be Spilling ANY Fake Tea! Unless It's Canadian Tea-"

Branch Over The Snailphone: "WAIT BUT-"

Lee Immediately Hung Up Their Snailphone.
"Ugh, Can You Believe That Partner?! Some Troll Just Called To Prank Us About The Confetti-Yeti!"

Jonas Blankly Stared At Lee As He Realized Something.
"........You're Canadian?"

~~~

Branch Groaned To Himself As He Threw Down His Snailphone.
"UGH! C'mon! How Else Am I Going To Prove That-"

Suddenly, Before Branch Could Finish His Ranting Frustration, He Peeked Over At The Trash Of His Vision Board Plans, And Looked Back At The Plan He Had For John Dory To Scare Him In The Confetti-Yeti Costume.

Branch Gained A Smirk As He Got An Idea In His Timberlake Astin Mind.
".....Liiiiiiighttttbuuulllbbbb~ 💡"

~In The Woods~

With The Night Winter Sky Dawning Through, Branch Made His Way Through The Snowy Woods To Find Where He And Poppy Burried The Confetti-Yeti Costume From Last Night.

"C'mon! C'mon! Where Are You?!"
Branch Said As He Digged Through The Snow For The Costume.

After A Grand Amount Of Digging, Branch Found The Confetti-Yeti Costume And Managed To Pull It Out Of The Snow And Against One Of The Trees.

"There You Are! Perfect! Well...It's Just Me And You Now Pal...To Make Things Right"
Branch Told The Confetti-Yeti Costume As He Patted It.

"And Me"
A Familiar Voice Was Heard Right Behind Of Branch, Being A Recognizable Troll.

Branch Immediately Turned Around And His Ears Perked Up.
"Huh?! Poppy?!"

Poppy Was There With A Grin On Her Face, As She Was Ready To Help.
"You Didn't Think You'd Set Things Right By Yourself Did You? Afterall, I Do Count As An Accomplice"

Branch Gained A Smile As Well.
"I'm So Glad To See You! And Also Sorry....Look Poppy, I-"

"I Know Branch, I Know ✋️"
Poppy Said With Her Hand Up.

Branch Grabbed To Hold Poppy's Hand Gently.
"No You Don't Know....I Was Blinded With My Mind Of Wanting To Get My Brothers Together For The Broliday, When I Also Forgot Another Important Part Of Making Christmas Special....You"

"Aw Branchhhhh You Cookie Dough Ballllll"
Poppy Said In Awe, Holding Her Heart.

Branch Chuckled A Little.
"I Was Thinking With My Head Than With My Heart....And I Have To Make Things Right. You Helped Me Through Everything And-"

"-Annnnnd I'm Gonna Help You Fix It. You're Never Gonna Be Alone Any Christmas Ever As Long As I'm Here"
Poppy Nodded At Branch With A Smile.

"Wait- How'd You Even Know I'd Need Help?"
Branch Wondered To Himself.

"I Had A Hunch No One Would Believe You If You Confessed To Being The Confetti-Yeti. Remember, Trolls Only Believe What They Can See, Not Hear"
Poppy Booped Her Boyfriend's Nose.

"That Makes The Bergens Are Coming Make Sense"
Branch Shrugged To Himself.

"Yup! So Let's Save Christmas...Together!"
Poppy Said As She Was Ready.

Branch Pulled Poppy In For A Comforting And Thankful Loving Hug.
"You're My One And Only Popifur~"

"And You're Mine Branchifer~"
Poppy Hugged Branch Back Warmly And Close, Not Wanting Him To Let Go.

Squirming Up Behind The Couple's Loving Moment, Mr. Dinkles Watched Them As He Was Also Joining The Mission To Fix Things Right, Even If This Was Nothing But Bullshit To Him.

Poppy Turned Around And Gasped With A Grin.
"Mr. Dinkles?! You're Coming Too?!"

"Mew"
Mr. Dinkles Agreed Along To The Plan, Regardless If He Wanted To Shove Both Of Them Down In Snow To Suffocate From Doing This Shit In The First Place.

"Thanks Dinkles. And Cool Shades-"
Branch Patted Mr. Dinkles's Head Gently.

"Alright, What's The Plan?"
Poppy Helped Branch Up Off The Snow.

"I Have To Get The Confetti-Yeti Costume Over To Pop Village For Everyone To See, We're Gonna Gave To Get Inside It And Move It Over To The Center Of The Village To Reveal The Truth"
Branch Explained To Poppy And Mr. Dinkles.

"But What If Everyone Hates You After Revealing Yourself?"
Poppy Asked To Branch.

"I Don't Care. All I Care About Is Bringing The Holiday Season Back To EVERY Troll In The Kingdom"
Branch Stated To His Girlfriend.

Poppy Snuggled Into Branch's Arm.
"That's My Man! Let's Do This!"

Opening Up The Confetti-Yeti Costume, Poppy And Branch, Along With Mr. Dinkles, Jumped Back Into The Suit In Positions To Make The Confetti-Yeti Move And Stand Up.

"R-R-Ready 😁👍"
Poppy Said As She Held Branch On Her Shoulders Again.

"Alright Pop Village, HERE WE COME! LET'S SAVE CHRISTMAS!"
Branch Said As He Began To Move The Arms Of The Confetti-Yeti.

Letting Out A Roar From The Confetti-Yeti Suit, The Costume Began To Walk And Soon Run To Make It's Way To Pop Village To Reveal The Truth Of Who's Behind Everything.

Until, What Branch And Poppy Didn't Know Was, Watching From Afar Was John Dory And A Group Of Four Fuzzling Officers, Who Were Doing A Stake-Out And Waiting For The Confetti-Yeti To Come Out On Their Snow Motor-critters.

John Dory Used His Binoculars And Spotted The Confetti-Yeti.
"Hehehe~ There It Is Fuzzers! Let's Catch Us A Confetti-Yeti!"

John Dory Put On His Goggles And Started Up His Snow Motorcritter.
"LET'S ROLL OUT!"

With The Confetti-Yeti Making It's Way Through The Snowy Woods To Pop Village, John Dory & The Fuzzlings Were Heading Right After It To Hunt It Down For Good...The Chase Was On.
