The Birth of the Dawn

It was nighttime in the Kingdom of Mewni, with the light of the sun becoming brighter in the distance, hinting that it was on the verge of rising over the mountains. In the high tower of Castle Butterfly, some heavy breathing could be heard even from the courtyard. And in the royal bedroom, that heavy breathing was revealed to have been coming from Star Butterfly, now queen after having inherited the throne of Mewni from her mother.

Star had gone through a lot before this day. She had decided to end the long-lasting feud between mewmans and monsters after having befriended Buff Frog and his children and learning that there were some monsters that idolized her and her rebellious nature. This achievement was immortalized in the form of a tapestry in the Tapestry Room, which depicts her and her friend Marco surrounded by both fractions as she holds up her wand and Marco holds the flag that symbolizes their unity. Afterward, she and Marco got married at some time, making him the new King of Mewni.

Now they have made it to the next step in their lives together, for the reason Star was breathing so heavily is because she's pregnant and just ready to give birth. The only thing helping her ignore the pain was the fact that Marco, her beloved husband, was holding her hand to let her know he was here with her, giving her some comfort through all this.

Finally, with one more great push, Star let out a scream so painful, it was heard from all over the surrounding villages. And by the time the sun shined over the mountains, marking the break of dawn, the sound of a baby crying could be heard coming from the castle.

The handmaiden tasked with overseeing the birth picked up the baby in a baby blue blanket and smiled happily. "Congratulations, your majesties, it's a girl."

Pulling back the top of the blanket, the newborn was shown to have her father's tan skin and dark brown hair. On her cheeks were marks shaped like the sun. And when she opened her eyes, it was shown that they were the same color as her mother's.

With the handmaiden placing her newborn daughter in her arms, Star could only look joyfully at her little bundle of joy. "She's perfect." she said to her husband before turning to the handmaiden. "You can tell everyone else they can come in now."

The handmaiden wasted no time in doing just what Star told her to do and quickly opened the door, letting in everyone that was able to come over to see the newest addition to the family. Among them were Star and Marco's friends from both Earth and the other dimensions, Pony Head, Kelly and her boyfriend Tad, Johnny Blowhole, Headphone Jones and Lady Scarfs-a-Lot, Buff Frog and his own children, Jackie Lynn Thomas, Janna, Alfonzo and Ferguson, even Star and Marco's respective parents, Angie and Rafael Diaz and Moon and River Butterfly. Even River's whole Johansen family and the Magic High Commission were able to make an appearance.

Both River and his family were clearly excited to have a new member of the family and wasted no time in playfully roughhousing with each other, with River eventually shouting "Granddaughter!" joyfully.

Their ruckus would've woken up the baby had Star and Marco not managed to quiet down her father and his relatives. "Shh. Dad, do you wanna wake her up and scare her?"

"Oh." River realized and covered his mouth, the other Johansons following his lead and ceasing their playful fighting. "Sorry, Sweetheart. I'm just really excited to be a grandfather. I mean, me and my family haven't been this excited since my marriage to your mother followed by the day of your birth."

Star could only chuckle at her father's point. "Hehe, I know, dad." she sighed. However, the moment was cut short when she realized that some of her relatives were missing. "Hey Mom, where are Great Aunt Etheria, Uncle Heartrude, and all of your other relatives?"

"Oh Star, you know as well as I that they wouldn't have been alright with this." Moon replied shaking her head. "They're as the saying goes on Earth, old-school."

"How do we know that?" Star asked, not really wanting to believe that. She cared about every member of her family even though she wouldn't admit it.

"Think about it, Star, they didn't really approve of your marriage to Marco, who is a non-mewman. No offense, Marco." she said to her son-in-law.

"None taken." Marco replied, knowing what his mother-in-law's relatives were like from seeing it during the annual picnic between her family and River's.

"So it would make sense that they wouldn't really approve of you birthing a half-mewman child." Moon finished explaining to Star why her relatives didn't come over.

"But if they could just have the time to get to know Marco..." Star tried to protest, only to have her mother put a hand up to silently stop her from finishing her sentence, knowing that what she was trying to say wouldn't happen.

"Trust me, Star, some Butterflys just don't have what it takes to embrace something different that others do." Moon countered, knowing full well that she was one of the Butterflys that did have the courage. "Take me for example, unlike the rest of my family, I can actually tolerate the antics of your father and his family."

"She's right, Sweetheart. And it's because of that tolerance that you even exist. And now that tolerance has resulted in your own daughter existing as well." River supported coming up next to his wife.

River was soon met with a surprise hug from Marco's father Rafael. "And we thank you for that, your majesties. Because if not for you and Star, even our own familia wouldn't have gotten bigger." he said joyfully before putting the king down while his wife expressed how proud she is of her son. "Oh Marco, we're so happy you've made a family of your own."

"Thanks, Mom." Marco replied, showing how happy he was with his new life with Star before embracing both his parents in a group hug.

"So anyway, B-Fly," Pony Head interrupted, wanting to change the subject back to her bestie's newborn daughter. "What'cha gonna call your new bundle of joy?"

Star took a moment to think about this and looked at her sleeping baby daughter. Smiling at her child, Star was able to realize just what she wanted to name her. "I think I'll call her... Aurora, Aurora Diaz Butterfly."

"Now that sounds like a wonderful name." Marco said coming over next to her, clearly liking the name. "I think it suits her."

Coming over for a closer look, Moon put a hand on her granddaughter's cheek while looking at her with a smile, showing happiness for her newborn granddaughter, Aurora smiling back at her grandmother. "Welcome to the family, little one."

Suddenly feeling like she had the strength to stand again, Star wasted no time in getting out of bed and walking over to the balcony outside the room, receiving support from Marco just in case it was temporary. Coming to the edge of the balcony, the new queen saw that all of the citizens of the kingdom, both mewmans and monsters alike, were present to try to get a look at the newborn princess. Knowing what they wanted, Star wasted no time in holding her baby up high for all to see. This led to everyone down below to start cheering in celebration of the birth of the new princess. As Star and Marco's parents came out to join their children outside, a single ray of light came out of the rising sun and shined upon the baby, leading everyone to bow before their kingdom's new princess, Aurora Diaz Butterfly.
