Enjoy the fic!

"Wheee!" 7 year old princess Star Butterfly shouted with glee as she slid down the castle stairs.

"Star honey no don't do that!"

She took a glance behind her as she was sliding to see her terrified parents, the king and queen, chasing after her waving their arms wildly. They were very much afraid for the trouble she could cause if she managed to continue to run wildly around the castle.

And with good reason.

See, Star wasn't just your average, stereotypical princess that dedicated their whole lives into learning how to be polite and proper. No, Star was born a very mischievous girl. She was always getting into trouble wherever she went, much to the dismay of her parents who tried everything they could to turn their daughter into an ideal princess. They had long since accepted the fact that she was just naturally energetic and eager for adventure and still cared for their daughter. However, that didn't mean they weren't going to teach her any manners!

Star giggled at the sight of her panicking parents. She thought the look on their faces when they chased her was pretty funny.

She turned her head back in front of her as her feet collided with the last step of the stairs. She quickly darted through a nearby, random hallway in order to escape from her parents.

Easy she giggled to herself as she looked over her shoulder to see her parents at the opposite end of the hallway, fatigue starting to consume them from giving chase.

She smiled to herself. She loved the little game of cat-and-mouse she had created and played with her parents. She was now pretty good at dodging their attempts at catching her, as she was fairly smart about the routes the guards would take around the castle and avoided them.

She looked at a nearby clock she passed by. 9 minutes! she thought to herself. That's a new record!

Deciding that she wanted to push for an even longer record, she turned the corner and looked for another way to escape. She spotted a door nearby that led to a kitchen. According to her knowledge, there was no one supposed to be cooking at that time in there and also there was another door in that room that led to another labyrinth of hallways.

Perfect she thought as she headed for the door.

"STAR! COME BACK THIS INSTANT!" she heard her mother call to her.

Uh oh Star thought. Better hurry up!

With this thought, she burst open the door and darted inside. Unfortunately, she ran straight into one of the castle's servants who was holding a massive pot of soup, enough for a few families to feast on. Star had forgotten in the thrill of the chase that today, her parents had planned to teach her proper posture and etiquette for eating, in case any other royal families from a neighboring dimension decided to visit one day.

"Ah!" yelled the servant as the princess collided with him. He stumbled backwards for a few seconds trying to maintain his balance, but to no avail. He tripped backwards resulting in the pot flying right out of his hands and slammed into the head of another servant, who was working a magical stove. One thing led to another and soon, a fire was erupting from inside the kitchen. The kitchen servants all ran out screaming as Star stood outside the door, looking downcast at the mess she made. She didn't mean to cause any trouble to anyone, she just wanted to have a little fun! Despite that, no one could deny the fact her recklessness was something to behold. Most of the time, her daring, adventurous activities always ended up with her causing trouble.

Tap tap tap Star heard from behind her. She slowly turned her body behind her to see her mother and father looking down at her with crossed arms. She gulped. Now she was in for it.

Star's mother pulled out the royal magic wand and aimed it the burning kitchen. After muttering a few words, a blue mist came out of the wand and seemingly absorbed the fire. Star's eyes looked in awe of the magic before her. The royal magic wand was an object of great power and wonder. It was passed down generation after generation to the next heir of Mewni. Soon, when she grew up, it would be hers.

As the fire was extinguished, Star shook out of her daze and looked at her mother shamefully. Star's mother gave her a disapproving look as she crossed her arms.

"Star what have we said about doing this kind of thing?" she sternly scolded her.

Star pouted. "But mom-"

"No buts!" Star's mom shouted. "All of these little games of yours are causing havoc wherever they go!"

Star bit her lip. As much as she didn't want to admit it, her mom was right. "I'm sorry," she apologized to her parents.

Seeing the sad and remorseful expression on her face, her parents softened. They were very strict, but they indeed loved their daughter.

"Star," her father said bending down and putting a hand on her shoulder. "One day, all these little adventures you go on may hurt you one day," he lectured her.

Star nodded in understanding. She knew her parents were scared for her safety, but her thirst for fun was unquenchable. It was just the way she was.

Her father sighed and stood up. "Well we have to set back the time for the lesson I suppose. Star why don't you run along to your room and play for a little while?"

Star looked up at her parents with big pleading eyes. "Can I go and play outside?" Star begged her parents.

The queen shook her head. "No you cannot! There are many people who would want to capture you my dear and we cannot take that risk!"

Star's expression became downcast as she hung her head. Seeing her like this, the king turned to his wife.

"Erm, dear, maybe we should let her outside just for a little while. We can take some of the royal guards with her to make sure she doesn't get into too much trouble," the king said. He knew that one day, she would need experience going out into the world, as the king and queen were required to do it on a daily basis.

The queen looked at him unsure. "I don't know..." she said hesitantly.

Star looked at her with her big, round eyes and tugged on her dress. "Please please please mom?! I never get to go outside!"

The queen looked down at her daughter and sighed. "Oh, alright," she gave permission. Star let out a cheer of victory and danced in a circle.

"-But make sure to take the royal guards with her!" she commanded. Star frowned slightly. She didn't want to be babysat but it was the best she was probably going to get today. She was already lucky she wasn't lectured for hours in her room after setting a kitchen on fire.

With this in mind, Star skipped joyfully down the hallway to prepared to leave the castle.

Author's Notes: Well there's the first chapter! I'll be able to update the next few chapters of this fairly frequently but I also want to post another story I wrote a while ago that is pretty much done. It's a short story but I think the idea is interesting. After all that I'll be making another one shot and posting the next chapter for Until You Realize. Until then see you guys later!
