In another dimension similar but different to our own in a forest full of pine trees a quite strange group of friends were conversing. They talked amongst each other as the chariot was drawn by horse like creatures with skin dark as the night sky, manes colored silver, shining white eyes and the most unusual feature was the two horns like those of a unicorn arching up out of the creatures' foreheads. The group of friends were just riding home after a wild party with their other friends and laughing at all the fun and enjoyment they had. One girl had aquamarine hair that was covering her whole body from the top of her skull down to her feet her name was Kelly, one was just the aquamarine head of a unicorn with pupils in the shape of golden stars with no body named aptly Princess Pony Head and the last member who is oddly the strangest but also the most human like was a half monster girl her name is Star Butterfly and she is the crowned princess of the kingdom of Mewni and has long silver-blue hair, greyish blue skin, crimson red hearts on each cheek and a long reptilian tail along with a burgundy red hair band that has devil like horns coming out of it.
Pony Head floated in the middle of them pure glee being shown from her expression as she was laughing along with her friends, "My that was so freaking fun am I right guys, mkay?!."
"Yeah it sure was." Star said hugging pony head tightly as her tail was wagging in excitement kind of like a dog. Since tomorrow will be an extremely special day for her. Star could barely conceal her excitement.
"Well with way things are happening tomorrow Star it can only go up from here." Kelly added in while relaxing by leaning onto the side of the chariot, "Since not only is tomorrow your birthday, you also get the royal wand of Mewni Star!."
Star let's go of pony head and squeals in excitement and agreement as she imagines all the cool spells and awesome magic she could do with the wand. First her mom and dad had to give it to her first. All these thoughts ran through her head making her tail shake even more.
"That's cool and all Star. Now if you ladies excuse me I need to cut open a portal, so we can get each back to our own homes. Especially you, you lucky girl." Pony head said after coughing up her dimensional scissors as she flew ahead and cut open a right in front of them. Then returned to the chariot as it, the bicorns, and the people riding along went right into the portal. "OK now as I was saying….-" the chariot immediately came to a halt as it crashed into something making all the occupants fly onto the floor. Star and Kelly rubbed their heads in pain as they noticed the scratches and scrapes on them. Pony head looked around to but could not rub her head due to the lack of hands. Star noticed a few nicks and scratches that were rapidly healing and closing. Kelly had quite a few loose ends and her hair was all messy.
Kelly then looked at Pony Head and crossed her arms that popped out of her hair and glared. "Pony Head...what did you do?!" Kelly asked tentatively the annoyance on her friend face and in irritation.
Pony head turned to her giving her a small glare of her own in return, "Hey hey why you think this is my fault Green?!"
"Well you were the one who opened that portal right? Did you even check where are destination was first?".
Star then stands in between them trying to stop a fight that was about to happen." Guys guys no need to fight we are A OKAY right? This just a small setback. We're cool, aren't we?" She asked them joyfully as both Pony Head and Kelly just rolled their eyes and said fine but were still touched at Star's caring for them both." OK so that's done and settled. Why don't we see where we are first? That way we can know if we're not in my home realm and have to open another portal." As she suggested that she along with her friends got and cleaned themselves off. As they looked around they realized they crashed into someone's place and the chariot left a huge hole in one of the walls with stone and mortar all over the ground.
"Where are we exactly then?" As Kelly asked that she began to look around the place along with everyone else, because of the crash everything was either destroyed and made unusable. Tools were on the ground either in pieces or bent in unusual angles, jars and barrels that held some kind of liquid were shattered spilling their contents all over the floor. All this destruction also came along with some machine metal like creations that if they were in their original conditions would have been interesting. Kelly noticed quite some fine swords and what looked like some basic armor like a chest plate or chain mail.
"Oh boy whoever made this stuff will be so mad and irate when he finds out what we did to his place." Star said looking a little nervous as she picks up something...and it disintegrated into ashes on the wind. She also noticed all the "armaments" now littering on the ground. Star's eyes continued to widen in fear how much time and effort she and her friends destroyed on accident.
Pony Head just flew by her to try to make her friend feel better." Oh, don't worry too much girl, we can just leave through a quick portal. That way whoever owns this place will never know we were here." Pony head said placatingly as she leaned her head on something...which karma answered her opinion by having what she leaned on give in and lower and made an odd noise. This caused all three girl's eyes to go wide as a part of the wall opened up and out shot a large purple ball filled with an unknown liquid and was heading straight towards as speeds seen only on horses at full gallop.
"Everyone! Scatter." Star tried to warn the others. They alas did not react in time and the ball popped and splattered the unknown liquid on everyone. Pony head was stuck to the wall, Kelly got stuck to the floor, and Star got stuck to what was left of the chariot. It appeared that the ball was some kind of security system. The liquid, if it can be called that, seemed to be super sticky as all the girls tried to move but could not move far without the substance pulling them back.
"What is this stuff even made of. I mean come on it got in my hair?" Pony head asked as she tried to pull herself off the wall only to be pulled pack again and smack into it
"Not sure and speak for yourself much Pony Head. It will take hours for me to get this stuff out." Kelly said in misery knowing how long it would take to clean herself up later. She was stuck in place since some was on her legs and a lot of her hair making it glue her to the floor.
As for Star she was stuck fast to the chariot but the "liquid" only seemed to get her hands and feet. it was not on her much as the others but the way it was only her prevented her from moving. " OK let's not panic I'm sure this stuff will wear off eventually right." Star said with a smile trying to see the positive silver lining. Which immediately crashed and burned as then they heard the sound of a door slam open, smashing into the wall and leaving an indent, and all the girls looks to see who entered.
Pony Head gulps nervously at she sees, "Oh my. That definitely is not good." The person the girls were looking gave off an opposing presence, a full mask covering his head to the world. His eyes seemed to glow blue from the slits on what looked to be either a large apron or armor were metal pauldrons and knee guards. His hands were covered in thick gloves that Star hesitates to think what they could be used for. Even though he looked smaller then star a little did not take away from the fearful image., He wore thick black boots with metal plates near the end, he also held a wrench and from the tightening around it showed an immense anger. He looks around the crash zone and saw the place was a mess. He looks at all of them and sent chills down each girls' spine even though they could not tell what emotions he was having right now till he spoke in a deep terror inducing voice.
"What have you done to my shop you little DELINQUENTS!" His voice made them want to jump back and made them feel as if the room shook. They couldn't because of the unknown material holding them tight. His voice sounded to them dark, deep and to them scary as heck as they began to shake to the bone, what seemed to be anyways a, "Blacksmith" raged in front of them.
"Ah-ah..we're ah.i-i-it w-wa-s-s a..m-m-mistake… a.a.a- accident. Honest I swear!" Pony head stuttered shaking as much as she could watched the stranger walk to an invention of his on the ground that seemed to be broken beyond repair and on the floor as he picks it up gently. Catching the girls off guard as he starts to shake in rage.
"Accident! YOU DESTROYED MY WORKSHOP AND ALMOST EVERYTHING I MADE IN HERE! SHOULD PROBABLY CALL THE GUARDS ON YOU MISCREANTS! " he spoke a little angrier then before scaring the trapped three even more.
Star decided to try talking to him to see what she can do to pacify him, "L-Look we apologize for destroying everything you worked on but we really really really really did not mean to we just wanted to get back to our home in Mewni." Star tried explaining
"what?" the stranger said a little calmer as he looks at her closely.
"Yeah look we will just leave. Please just let us out of this "stuff" so we can go to the right dimension since I need to get there fast since it will be my birthday tomorrow. I'll also be getting my family wand tomorrow as a present." She said as she grows excited now almost completely forgetting the situation she is in and what she caused.
"Birthday? Wand?" he said as he was now no longer angry with them as realized just who these people are.
"Yeah so like come on it's my Best Friend B day so let us go! Get your magic stuff off us!" Pony head demanded as the figure turned to her instantly making her shut up by his gaze even if no malice came off it.
"Magic!? I do not work with magic! How insulting to my craft using magic as shortcut! Why I never!" when he said that aloud everyone thought he was angered again by Pony Head's words till he lifts up his helmet up to speak more clearly. " I am more of a craftsman, blacksmith and a chemist. I prefer working with my own hands grit, and other chemicals to help with the crafting or forging process, since honestly I don't think I would be good with magic to much of a chance for chaos…" his voice now came off as a little shy and nervous as he talked with a kind of nervous smile his without the helmet affecting his voice he now sounded less dark but more cordial. All the girls saw he was younger then then by 2 or 3 years." Also for your information that stuff that's holding you down is something I invented on accident while studying different glues or mortar to help keep buildings and armor together. I like to call it simply purple glue intruder repellant. I made it in case of intruders or situations like exactly you three caused."
"Ah...OK then definitely a weird boy are you not." Pony Head said surprised in her usual insulting tone that their captor was a kind of nervous type boy that she usually would not give the time of day for.
"Pony Head!" Kelly snapped at her." Be nice we are still technically trespassing, and we damaged his workplace" She then looks at Him." So, ah what's your name? Mine is Kelly. Also, is there any chance you can get us out of this stuff its really starting to pull on my hair and I do not want it to be ripped out?" She asked him politely as possible realizing how bad their situation is regardless of who the house belonged to.
The thirteen-year-old stranger heard her as he looks at her also realizing that even if they broke in and destroyed his place does not mean he can forget his manners, " Oh ah sorry how rude of me I forgot to introduce myself properly did I not." he says nervously as he does a polite and gentlemanly bow. All the spectators could see he was kind of nervous. They did not know he had trouble around new people at times." Names Hector, Hector Goring. And if you can patiently wait but a few moments I will free you. Just give me second it to get the counter compound." He then goes to a drawer and grabbed a green glowing substance inside a crystalline container and walks to each of them and carefully pours it on only the areas where the Purple Glue was as it started to melt off them. Careful not to touch the green and purple mixture all the girls got up and checked themselves over.
"Thank you so very much, the name is Star, Star Butterfly. " Star said as she offers Hector a hand shake that returns cautiously, " It's nice to meet you Hector Goring." Hector smiled as he then accepted it.
"Nice to meet you. I mean officially meet you Star Butterfly and it's an honor to meet you in person princess." Hector says politely realizing his assumption of her being the princess was correct.
"Cool so." She looks around the destroyed place really noticing all the damage she did and winces, " Again, I'm really sorry about all the mess that me and my friends caused. I will try to make it up to you somehow." Star said looking around the place in guilt with a sense of guilt, and a dark whisper, "Why do I always end up destroying something almost every time?".
"Oh yes you definitely will and we will definitely be having a talk when we get home Star." Star and the others tensed up as a suave, mature, royal bearing voice resounded around the room as the half-monster princess slowly turns around to see who it belonged to and what she saw may her gulp knowing she is in deep deep trouble. It was a tall lizard man in he wore a black overcoat with golden epaulette on each shoulder, a white under shirt, grey pants that went down to his black boots standing in the giant whole their chariot left in the wall. His dark black hair was tied up in a short ponytail giving off a sophisticated and wise air about him. This was King Toffee, the reigning king of Mewni but most importantly he is Star's father. "I see you made quite a mess of this boy's livelihood my little Star. I would say Nebulous does not get into this much destruction but well I would be lying." He spoke wistfully causing Star a large amount of shame and embarrassment.
"DAD! How did you even find us? I did not even think we were on Mewni? " Star says in a worried tone knowing her father is harder to get away with stuff then her mother who will even join her on her fun every now and then.
Toffee looks around the destroyed shop and sighs deeply as he turns to the boy and the others. " Star when we get home were going to a nice long talk about your actions and also I'm calling your friends parents. After that we will discuss reparations for you destroying what seems to be this boy's entire workshop or place of business", All of them looked down and sighing in defeat knowing there was no way out of it, Pony Head shivered knowing how her dad would react. "Also, it was not hard finding you when I heard a large explosion from the castle and since Nebulous is with your uncle River I thought it had to be you. As for you mister Hector Goring the reparations I mentioned can be discussed at a later time and It seems we might be able to have you help the kingdom of Mewni as a whole a "project" of ours" Toffee declared resolutely making Star wonder what he meant.
"King Toffee that's no-." Before he could finish toffee interrupts him.
"Don't worry it won't be bothersome at all. After all my daughter needs to learn that being a princess has more responsibilities then just going around and hanging with friends and causing mischief." He states plainly his face not changing from its neutral expression as Hector thinks on the offer that the KING OF MEWNI is offering him.
"OK then. Thank you, my king for such a generous response to your daughter's … mishap." The Young boy said gratefully while also trying to lower the trouble star will get in.
Later on, everyone was sent to their dimension home dimension to their parents. Pony Head's father looked apoplectic and started ranting about how his daughter needs to act better. Kelly's parents just looked at her a little disappointed and made her feel shame. As for star, She and Toffee were talking in Star's bedroom. Toffee of course scolded her, "Star you have to be more careful in what you do. You just ruined a boy's future luckily it was nothing that could not be replaced but still. You could have gotten really hurt. I have no idea what me your mother, and brother would do if something happened to you." He did not like being harsh with his daughter but Toffee knew he had to be firm with her or she would never learn her lesson. Just because she is the princess of Mewni does not make her free of consequences. He only hopes the prejudice most of the kingdom has towards monsters, including himself, does come to crush his little girl's dreams. He tucks her in checks again to se all of her scratches are healed perfectly fine.
"Now that we had this talk, goodnight star." Her father Toffee said as he gets up to leave." And Star, happy soon to be birthday." He says with a smile as he kisses her forehead, Star smiled back.
"Thank you, dad, also...you aren't going to send me to...you know." Star asked a little scared that she didn't finish the places name.
"No of course not your mother talked me out of it saying she had a more appropriate "measure" for this behavior. Although you should really go visit your uncle and aunt more they would like to see you more. You would only be going as a visitor. Although I have heard recently that your aunt has developed some headaches recently. " Toffee said sternly as star sighed and lets out a breath of relief. She does think to herself she should probably visit her other relatives as she closes the door.
"Tomorrow is the big day that I finally get the wand and with people might finally see as the next rule" Star said wistfully as she blows out the candle light in her room as she went into a peaceful sleep wile hugging her tail thinking that most of her worries will be gone after tomorrow. Not knowing how long her day tomorrow will be and the journey she will travel for a long time to go. For good or ill Star butterfly has set her on path that will bring her to heaven and hell.
