Drinks were slurped, balls clanked, and music was played in a monster business facility that was equivalent to a human's bar. Monsters in Mewni were enjoying the accompany of one another at this facility called The Gurgles, one of the few places in the Mewnian forest where they can have fun with one another without Mewnian interference.
Some monsters clanked their glass drinks filled with brown liquid and eyeballs as they discussed their personal matter with their friends. Others got up in a stage and sang as other monsters played with their instruments. There was also pool table where monsters played for fun using spears instead of pool sticks. It was a normal environment for the monsters and the main topic today was Star Butterfly victory over Ludo. It didn't matter to them that much of who was going to emerged victorious, they didn't like the Butterflys and they didn't like Ludo, so the outcome was not going to affect them.
But what did concern them was what would be Ludo's fate at the hand of the Mewnians since he is now their prisoner. Even though Ludo was disliked in the monster community, he was still a monster, and whatever the Butterflys decide what to do with him would have serious repercussions to all monsters.
The front door of The Gurgles opened dramatically by a stranger to these lands and everything inside the facility came to a stop. Monsters stopped talking, drinking, playing music, singing, and playing pool. They all turned their attention to the stranger who walked into the facility, a mewnian woman dressed in all black and had her hat lowed enough that it was covering her face, unknown to them it was Eclipsa.
Monsters snarled and sneered at Eclipsa as she walked toward the bar. She sat on a stool across the monster bartender who was cleaning his glass cups with a towel.
"What do you want?" the monster bartender asked in a hostile tone.
"West Mewnian Swamp Water," Eclipsa answered in a soft tone. "And I would like it from the bottle."
The monster bartender laughed, "Did you get your sense knocked out of you? Do you a know where the hell you are?"
"The Gurgles," Eclipsa answered. "The drinks were delicious here back in my day. I used to come here all the time, its a shamed that it looks more worn out the last time I was here."
The monster bartender looked perplexed. "You must have lost your mind. No Mewnian was ever served here."
"No, not in centuries." Eclipsa responded, she raised her hat to reveal her purple eyes and spades cheek markings. "Please kind sir, my drink."
The monster pulls out a dagger from his pocket, "This is the only service I offer to mewnians."
He swung the dagger downward at Eclipsa. Staying in the same sitting position she was in, Eclipsa blocks it by grabbing his elbow; stopping the dagger inches from her head. She slams the monster's arm onto the table and grabs the dagger with her other hand. The monster looked in fear as Eclipsa thrust the dagger toward him, he closed his eyes anticipating the blade penetrating his skin and severing a major artery.
But the impact never came. The monster bartender slowly opened his eyes to see the mewnian holding out her hand out at him with the dagger on the palm of her hand.
"This is a nice looking dagger, I love the coloring on the handle. Was it a gift?"
The monster looked at her astonished. "Y-yes. A gift from my father.'"
Eclipsa gave him a soft smile, "Well, you don't want it missing now, don't you?"
"N-No ma'am," the monster grabs the dagger out of her palm. "What do you want?"
"West Mewnian Swamp Water," Eclipsa repeated, she placed two mewnian coins down. "And make it a double, you look like you need some too. It calms the nerves."
"Two drinks coming up!" said the monster as he went to prepared the drinks.
After witnessing the whole scene played out, the monsters in The Gurgle resumed back to what they were doing before. Weirder things had happened.
As Eclipsa patiently waited for her drink, the sounds of an infant crying caught her attention. She turned to see a monster wife trying to calm down her infant and the monster husband was waving toys in front of the baby in a vain attempt to comfort his infant as well.
Eclipsa stared at the scene before her, stirring up a memory in her brain.
The Mewnian Forest. Some point in time in the past.
It was a snowy day in the Mewnian dimension and any creature caught outside would find themselves fighting the elements to survive. One foot of snow covered the icy ground and the trees looked like they produced white snow instead of leaves.
Inside a tree home, Eclipsa sat on her chair as she waited for her love to return with food for three. It's been six months since she denounce herself as the queen and fled Mewni. It is has also been five months since she got pregnant for the second time, but this time she was having a baby with the man she loved and it was her choice.
She smiled and rubbed her stomach which was growing bigger every month. Her baby will be the first of his/her kind and she can't help but worry for her baby's future. What she committed was considered blasphemy to the eyes of mewnians and Eclipsa knew they will not stand for this. But they would have to go through her first, she is still the Queen of Darkness. She wished that Glossaryck was here to support her as for he was the only one who never judged her and was always there for her, but she knew Glossaryck has a job to do back at Mewni.
The door burst opened and in came a large red monster with four eyes, horns, and white hair. He was carrying a dead warthog. "I hope you like pork."
Eclipsa stood up and smiled at her monster husband, "I'm sure the baby will love it more then I will." She patted her stomach. Eclipsa gestured her hand toward the dead animal, green/pink aura surrounded the warthog as Eclipsa levitated it to the kitchen counter.
"Please Eclipsa let me do it," her monster husband suggested. "You're five months pregnant and I don't want you put too much stress on yourself."
"That's sweet Korzac, but I'm already stressing out." Eclipsa responded with a worried tone. "They forced me to give birth to a child I never wanted because they didn't want their precious lineage to end. I abandoned my heritage and history so I can finally be happy with the one I truly love and now that I'm finally pregnant with the baby I always wanted, they're going to do everything in their power to find us and kill us."
Korzac stared at his wife with concern and anger. "They will never find us Eclipsa." He pulls her closer to him. "Nothing is going to tear this family apart."
Eclipsa smiled and looked up at her husband. "Then lets cook dinner together."
"Deal," Korzac smiled back.
Both lovers closed the gap between them to kiss and Korzac places his hand on Eclipsa's stomach, feeling the life that both of them created in there; created out of love.
Eclipsa ended her memory as the monster family left The Gurgles. She watched them leave after they successfully calmed down their crying infant.
Her attention goes back to the bar when the monster bartender places her drink in front of her. "Here's one bottle of West Mewnian Swamp Water."
Eclipsa grabbed the bottle and smiles at the bartender, "Thank you." She started to drink it.
"If you don't mind asking, what is a mewnian woman like you doing out here?" asked the bartender.
Eclipsa stopped drinking and puts down the bottle. "I always loved this place, but I'm just passing through today."
"Where are you going?"
Eclipsa gave him a weird smile, "I got some family business to take care off."
Star looked around what used to be her room before she returned to Mewni. Her bed, desks, furniture, and bottle ships that she packed away were now replaced by couches, computers, and TV. Those she can understand, but why was there a sewing equipment, a mannequin, and a treadmill?
"Trying to gain that hot bod, eyy Marco?" Star teased as she walked on the treadmill.
"There's nothing wrong in doing some cardio, heh heh." Marco answered nervously. He was careful to remove anything in the room that related it to the Flash, he wanted to tell her but he doesn't believe now was the right time. She just came back from Mewni and Marco wanted her to see the Flash as a hero like everyone else does in Echo Creek first, instead as an intruder that attacked Mewnians out of rage.
Jackie and Janna were there as well, excited but nervous to have their friend back.
"We did some talking and we're going to move everything out of the way so you can have your room back," said Jackie.
"Oh no," Star stopped walking on the treadmill. "I left and this is Marco's home. I don't want to you guys to lose your hangout, besides I'll just make a new tower."
Star waved her wand in the air and was about to cast a spell until Marco stopped her. "No no no! We're all happy to give you back your room as welcome home gift!" Marco smiled at her and sweated a little. He doesn't want another tower sticking out of his roof. "On Earth, its very rude to reject a gift."
"Don't worry about it, dude." Jackie spoke up. "There's an abandoned warehouse outside the town that my dad doesn't use anymore. It's a lot bigger, roomier, and not to mention creepy."
"Creepy?" Janna was intrigued by this new place. "Sounds cool to me."
Star looked at her friends that were awkwardly smiling at her, "Okay then. I would gladly accept your welcome home gift, Marco Diaz." Her best friend sighed in relief. "Well enough chit chat about living arrangements we should celebrate!" Star gleefully smiled and raised her hands upwards to expressed her enthusiasm. "All four of us are together again and we're going to the Bounce Lounge!"
Marco held back a groan so he wouldn't dampen Star's spirits while Jackie and Janna looked at each other in confusion.
"Bounce Lounge?" asked Janna.
"Yeah! Its a dance club for all dimensions! Ponyhead and Tammy are waiting for us over there!"
Again, Marco held back another groan.
"Sounds rad," Jackie liked the sound of it.
"Eh, I'll give it a shot." Janna wasn't that eager to go to a dance a club, but if a lot beings from other dimensions come there to shake their booty off, maybe she'll spot some creepy looking ones.
Marco looked at all his three friends, he doesn't want to be the joy killer. "Then let's go and par-tay."
"YAY!" Star shouted in excitement. She opens up a portal with her scissors, "Let's all have fun!" Star gestured her friends to get in the portal.
"And so I said if you want to touch my horn, you have to have the looks." Ponyhead finished telling her story to Tammy as they waited at the entrance to the Bounce Lounge.
The sound of a familiar voice caught their attention. "Hey girlfriends!"
Both girls turned to see Star Butterfly, Marco, Jackie, and Janna coming toward them.
"Sup B-Fly!" shouted Ponyhead.
"Hey Star," Tammy responded.
"Who's ready to get their groove on!" proclaimed Star.
"Totally, totally. Being turned to stone makes you want to dance," Ponyhead stated. She looked over at Star's three friends. "I see you brought the Earth Crew with you!"
"Hey," said Janna.
"Hey Ponyhead, nice to see you again," Jackie spoke. "Your horn its extra shiny today."
"Thanks girl!" Ponyhead felt flatter. "Its a new glossing I bought at Quest Buy, it brings out my natural looks."
"Oh! Tammy, let me introduced you to Janna and Jackie!" Star gestured toward the two girls. "Jackie is Marco's girlfriend.
"So Jackie is Earth Turd's girlfriend!" Ponyhead floated between Marco and Jackie. "Got to say Earth Turd I didn't you know you had it in you."
"Uh, thanks" Marco had no proper response to that.
Ponyhead leans into Jackie, "You do realize you don't have to date people just because you pity them?"
"Actually, Marco's a sweet guy and-"
"Welp, I'm already bored. Into the Bounce Lounge!" Ponyhead interrupted.
"Yes, please." Janna exclaimed. Janna, Tammy, Marco, and Jackie entered the Bounce Lounge while Star and Ponyhead lagged behind.
"Yo girl. Are you okay?" asked Ponyhead.
"Hmm, yeah. Why?" Star questioned her friend.
"I mean, you did told me how you felt about Marco. Seeing him dancing with his girl is not going to make you, how do I say this? Cray-cray?"
Star chuckled. "I'm fine Ponyhead. Marco is my best friend and Jackie is a friend too. Let's just be happy for them."
"You're stronger then you let on Star. I would stab a woman if they touch my man."
"What man?" Star teased.
"Oh shut it!"
Inside the Bounce Lounge Ponyhead, Star, and Tammy started to dance alongside the crowd of inter-dimensional teens. The music was loud and was playing some kind of techno beat. Different colors of light shined across the dance floor as everyone go their groove on. Jackie, Janna, and Marco watch from the sideline.
"You know what? I didn't travel through dimensions to watch other people dance." Jackie grabbed Marco's hand. "Let's dance dude!"
"Okay," Marco nervously said while being gently pulled by his girlfriend.
They both arrived next to Star's crew and Jackie was the first of both them to sway her hips along to the beat of the music. Marco started to dance in his own shy manner. Marco knows he can dance, but this environment is not his thing.
"Come on, Marco!" Star said as she watch Marco embarrassingly dance. "I know you can do better then that!"
"Just getting the hand of it," Marco explained.
All girls started to get themselves lost to the music while Marco struggled to catch on. Marco watched as Jackie and Star were enjoying themselves; dancing to the music with their eyes close as though they were hypnotized by it. Unable to get into the same level as them, Marco let out a sigh of defeat and made his way of the dancing crowd. He walked toward Janna feeling defeated.
"That was embarrassing," Janna teased.
Marco stand next to her, watching their friends dance. "This is not my thing."
"Me either. There's no heavy metal or blood themes."
"Well at least they're getting along great," Marco stated as he watched Jackie and Star dance.
"Yep. Don't worry, things will get awkward again once you tell Star you are the red speedster that she violently throw down with."
"Don't remind me," Marco groaned. He looked at Janna to see that she had her hand on her head and her eyes close, feeling a wince of pain. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, just a minor headache. Bet getting those lately." Janna explained.
Before Marco can say anything else, a tear in the dimension in the center of the dance floor caught everyone's attention. Music stopped playing and the teens stopped dancing as they backed away from the portal. Several humanoids rabbit pirates jumped out of the portal with their swords drawn.
"Argh! Give us them loot!" Proclaimed the captain bunny pirate.
"Umm, who are you?" asked Star, confused about the whole situation. Marco walked up next to her.
"We're the Furry Critters of the Sea and we're here to steel your treasure, argh!" answered the captain.
"Why?" asked Marco.
"We're pirates, it what we do, argh."
Star let out a sigh, "That's once way to end a party. Don't worry guys, Marco and I got this!" Star turned to Marco with a smile, "What do you say Marco, just like old times?"
Marco smiled back, "Like old times."
The bunny pirates charged at the duo as the music started playing again.
"Narwhal Blast," shouted Star, shooting narwhals at the incoming pirates. She jumped into the fray blasting magic at the pirates.
Marco stood his ground at the pirates charged at him with their swords drawn. He jumped and karate kicks a pirate in his face, landed on the floor and karate kick another pirate on their legs.
"Marco look out!" shouted Star. She fired a magic blast that zooms past Marco's head and hits a pirate that was trying to sneak up on him.
"Thank's Star!" Marco shouted back.
Star smiled at him. She turned around to fight the other pirates, not knowing one was going to sneak up behind her as well.
"Star look out!" Marco tried to warn her but the music was drowning out his scream and everyone else resumed dancing like there was no fight going on. Thinking fast, Marco ran at super speed toward the pirate, knocked him down to the floor, and returned back to his spot to fight his share of the pirates in the split of a second. No one saw that except for Jackie and Janna.
"Damn, they make a pretty good team," complimented Janna as both girls watch Marco and Star take down the pirates.
"Yeah they do." Jackie agreed.
"Now that Star is back, Marco would probably won't need us anymore. A duo made of a magical princess that can create almost anything with her wand and a speedster, they'll be unstoppable." Janna stated. "I won't have to sew him up anymore suits, I can just sit back and crack jokes."
"Yeah, that would be great." Jackie's tone betrayed her words. She saw how Marco and Jackie were taking down the pirates, as though they were in sync with one another. He won't need me. She looks down at the floor.
Star and Marco walked up toward them after they took care of the pirates, "Well that was fun!" Star said.
"I'll admit that was fun," Marco agreed. "But I'll also admit I'm getting tired of this place, lets go the park where is not that loud or crowded."
"Yes, please." Janna wanted to leave as well.
"Well.." Star turned to see Ponyhead and Tammy were enjoying themselves. "Yeah let's go, I came back to Earth so lets celebrate at Earth." She opened a portal to Earth and hopped right into it.
Marco grabbed Jackie's hand. "Let's go," he smiled warmly at her.
Jackie returned a shy smiled and followed Marco into the portal with their hands held.
"Now this is much better," Marco proclaimed. All four of them were sitting on a table in the middle of the park in Echo Creek at sunset eating ice cream.
"Yeah, I missed coming here." Star admitted.
"I'll admit, the Bounce Lounge was fun for a while." Jackie spoke.
"The bunny pirates made it a lot better," Janna stated.
"They were hopping mad weren't they?" Marco chuckled at his own pun. All the girls faked their laughs at Marco's terrible pun.
Across the park stood a middle age blonde man watching them like a scientist observing animals in the wild. He watched them laugh, tell jokes, and stories. Star was using her body to express how epic her adventure back on Mewni was. Janna smiled along, not wanting Star to skip out on any gory details. Jackie wiped a piece of ice cream from Marco's lip with her finger and lick it, making Marco blush so hard.
"You look so young, Flash." Spoke the man quietly to himself. "How it could be so easy to kill you and everyone you love right here, right now." The man chuckle to himself, "But we both know it's not that easy." He looked at the three girls. "The Princess of Mewni, your girlfriend, and your friend; that is what they are to you in this point of time. I know their destinies and I know how to use that against you. I will show you who is the fastest man alive."
Los Angeles. Some point in time in the future.
The city of LA was busy as always and having two speedsters fighting it out was not going to slow it down. Red and yellow lightning raced around the city, the momentum of which where breaking glass and setting off car alarms every time they passed them.
Lagging behind the yellow lightning was the red lightning, the Reverse Flash. He has been fighting the Flash for centuries, both men were never been able to gain the upper hand against one another. But that has been changing lately, the Flash has been getting faster and faster and the Reverse Flash has not been able to catch up with him fast enough.
The Reverse Flash struggled to catch up to the Flash, who was at least 50 feet ahead of him. I will not be outran by you, Diaz! Reverse Flash has been suffering defeat after defeat lately, and he did not want another.
Then suddenly, the Flash hit a burst of speed and ran faster out of Reverse Flash's view. Where! He lost sight of the Flash. Reverse Flash ran around the city looking for his arch nemesis. Just as Reverse Flash was about to pass an intersection, the Flash ran up from the right and body slam the Reverse Flash's right side, sending him skidding across the pavement block after block.
He finally comes to halt, lying on his back as he felt pain everywhere on his body. The Flash appears next to him; he was about the same size of the Reverse Flash except a bit buffer, his suit's color was bright red, had white streaks throughout the suit, and his insignia on his chest was a white circle with a bright yellow lightning bolt on it. He was vibrating and spoke in his amplified voice, "No more of these games, Thawne. It's over."
Eobard Thawne ended his memory, the last time he fought the Flash. "Not yet, Flash." He continued to watch him and his group of friends, "But it will over."
He felt sometime cold and metal touching his back, "Empty your wallets, don't make a sound." Spoke a man behind him who was attempting to mug him.
Thawne let out a sigh, disappointed that he let his guard down to let a nobody with a primitive weapon to sneak up on him. "Is everyone in the past stupid as you?"
Before the mugger can say anything else, Thawne turned around faster than the mugger can blink his eye. Thawne slapped the gun from the mugger, wrapped his arm around his neck to pull him closer, and shoved his other vibrating hand him up into his heart, stopping it.
The man groaned slightly, feeling the life escape from his body. "Shhhhh," whispered Thawne to the man's ear.
The mugger died quietly and slowly collapse onto the floor.
Thawne looked at the body, "I really hate guns." He looks back to see Marco and his friends still hanging out at the park. "I'll be seeing you soon, Flash." Thawne grabs the man's body and disappeared with his speed.
Wanted to put the prologue up before the show's finale. Welp here it is, that's all I can say right now.
