Romance Dawn

"Would Luffy Diaz report to the principal's office. Again, would Luffy Diaz report to the principal's office." Came the announcement over the P.A. system. The students of Miss Skullnick's class quieted down as they waited for their classmate to respond.

When nobody moved from their seats, or even said anything in response to the announcement, the students each took glances towards the black haired boy, who unsurprisingly had his head down on his desk. Loud snores were coming from his resting form as the boy was completely oblivious to the students that were now staring at him.

"If the boy is asleep, would some please wake him up." The monotone voice on the P.A. said.

"Psst, hey Luffy," Marco Diaz, Luffy's younger brother, called to him in a hushed voice. When Luffy didn't respond and kept snoring away, Marco reached out and shook his shoulder. "Get up buddy."

Luffy still didn't respond, no matter how hard Marco had shook him. Marco tried a few more times before he noticed a shadow looming over him. Looking up he noticed a whale of a woman standing before his and Luffy's desk. Out of slight fear Marco stopped shaking Luffy and went back to what he was doing before.

Miss Skullnick looked down at the slumbering boy, her eye twitching slightly as his snores got louder. Winding up her hand Miss Skullnick slammed it down on Luffy's desk, right next to his head.

Luffy's head shot up instantly, his eyes as wide as saucers. His mouth was left open a bit, drool still going down his chin. He blinked a few times before smiling a bright cheerful smile, raising his arms into the air and stretching.

"That was a great nap," Luffy said to no one in particular. It took him a moment to realize that the whole class was looking at him before he noticed the large woman standing in front of him. "Hm?"

"The principal wants to see you in his office." Miss Skullnick told the boy who looked at the door to the room and then back to her. He repeated this action for a short time, looking at Marco a few times before he settled his gaze back on the teacher.

"Uh, okay..." He said.

"Now!" The class watched as Luffy darted out of the room and headed to the principal's office.

It didn't take Luffy long to find the office considering it wouldn't be the first time he was called down to have a talk with the principal. He was called down for disciplinary talks at least once a week, and if it wasn't for that, it was to discuss his "restrictions" on school property. From these constant lectures he gained a reputation as the school's troublemaker, the complete opposite of his younger brother who was often called the "safe kid".

Luffy didn't have a problem with these talks, it wasn't like the school could actually stop him from doing what he wanted. Though he had to reluctantly comply. It was either agree to the principal's terms or the cafeteria would refuse to feed him, and even after agreeing to the restrictions he didn't get enough to eat for lunch.

Luffy jogged down the hallway until he saw the principal's office before him. Standing outside the door was principal Skeeves, who seemed to be waiting for him. Next to the principal, looking around with wide eyes, was a girl with buttercup blonde hair.

Principal Skeeves noticed Luffy approach out of the corner of his eye.

"Luffy my boy," Skeeves greeted the boy who was now standing before the principal with a smile on his face. "I want you to meet our new foreign exchange student - Star Butterfly."

Luffy looked back at the blonde girl he now knew as Star and watched her with interest. Star was inspecting the water fountain with curiosity, and jumped back when she pressed down on the button that made a small stream of water come out. Luffy could tell that she was definitely not normal, he had a knack for finding the abnormal ones after all. His major hint though was when she started growling at the machine.

"She's weird," Luffy commented.

"And that is exactly why I called you here." Skeeves told Luffy as the two stopped watching Star. "I needed a responsible, would-not-risk-it type to look after her, and who better than the other resident weird kid?"

"But I'm not responsible," Luffy countered. "I always take the risks!"

"That sounds like something someone who lost lunch privileges would say." Skeeves countered back, immediately shutting up the boy. "Plus you can always ask your 'safe kid' younger brother for some help."

Luffy just grumbled in agreement to that, he could always just get Marco to help him. He didn't want to babysit a new student when he could be doing much better things, like sleeping through all his classes, or even sneaking into an earlier lunch period to steal some food. Well it couldn't be all that bad, Luffy figured. He did have a soft spot for eccentric people and Star Butterfly seemed to be eccentric.

"Okay fine, I'll do it." Luffy said after a moment. Even though he was forced into it he couldn't help but smile, a good opportunity to make a new friend is always welcomed.

"That's my boy," Skeeves said before lifting a chest into his arms. Luffy stared at the chest with wide eyes before an earsplitting grin appeared on his face.

"Is that... treasure?!" He asked.

"Indeed it is, now I'm off to the ice cream shop. Daddy's getting all 52 flavors!" Skeeves started walking away with a hungry look in his eye.

"Awesome! Can I come?" Luffy was hoping he could get some of the treasure, but after hearing the comment on ice cream he couldn't stop himself from drooling.

"No~!"

"Aww, that isn't fair," Luffy whined but didn't have much time to complain as the sound of someone gnawing on something started behind him. He kept a straight face as he witnessed the new foreign exchange student trying to eat the water fountain.

Luffy and Star were currently making their way down one of the many hallways of Echo Creek Academy. Luffy was walking with his hands stuffed in his pockets, eyes looking directly in front of him as he ignored most of what was happening around him.

What was happening was Star skipping circles around him, her wide blue eyes taking in everything about the school; the students, the lockers, the classrooms. Everything seemed to amaze the girl.

"Thanks for showing me around, weird kid." Star said with a smile on her face as she made another lap around Luffy.

"It's no big deal," Luffy shrugged his shoulders as he kept walking. He knew exactly where he was going, and it just so happened that someone was waiting for him there. "Hey, it's Marco. Hey, Marco!"

Luffy called out to the boy who looked over to him. He waved at Luffy but soon looked at him strangely as he noticed Star bouncing around him. Star had heard Luffy call out to someone and looked at the boy who was waving at her guide, before she could comment though Luffy grabbed her arm and started running down the hall towards the boy.

It took them no time to reach the teen who looked at Star then shot a questioning glance to Luffy.

"Hey Luffy, who's she?" Marco asked, genuinely curious as to who the girl that was with his brother was.

"Marco, this is my new friend," Luffy gestured to Star who smiled brightly at Marco. "Her name's Star, she's new."

"Hi!" Star greeted the boy who gave his own greeting. "Are you that 'safe kid' I kept hearing about today?"

"What? No!" Marco yelled. He couldn't believe it, the new girl already knew what the other kids referred to him as. "It's ridiculous! You wear a helmet in the gym shower one time, and you're labeled for life!"

"Shishishi, you wore it more than once!" Luffy chuckled as he recalled the events that helped Marco get his nickname.

"Frankly," Marco ignored Luffy's statement. "I like taking risks and would welcome a little danger in my life."

Hearing this Star took her wand and shot off a blast of light at a butterfly that was unlucky enough to cross paths with the light. Within an instant the beautiful butterfly turned into a hideous monstrosity. The mutated butterfly screeched in Marco's face making him jump back in shock.

Marco seeing the danger hid behind Luffy who was looking at the butterfly in amazement, stars literally sparkling in his eyes. The trio watched as the butterfly flew after a random student that happened to be walking by and grabbed him, carrying him into the air and out of sight, his screams being the only thing anyone could hear.

"Oops," Star said as she watched her handiwork fly off. She looked over at the two boys who looked back at her with completely opposite expressions. Marco's was one of shock and horror while Luffy's was of amazement and excitement. "I thought you wanted a little danger."

Marco collected himself before giving her a suspicious stare, he wasn't new to strange things happening in his life but still felt the need to be careful around something he didn't understand.

"Who are you?" He asked.

"Who cares, Marco! That was awesome!" Luffy yelled at the boy. "What was it?!"

Star giggled at their reactions and decided that she could answer both their questions at once with a vague response.

"I'm a magical princess from another dimension!" Star used her wand to create a rainbow above her, along with several small creature. They didn't last long though as the rainbow caught fire and the little creatures began to run away.

"Magic?! That's so cool!" Luffy said as he looked at the rainbow with a massive smile on his face. Marco on the other hand was stone faced before he to smiled at Star.

"Well it was nice meeting you. I'm going home now." Marco started walking away, not thinking to grab Luffy and drag him along.

"Bye, bye friend! See you tomorrow! Byee! Bye, new friend! See you later!" Star waved her hand rapidly side to side as Marco pulled up his hood and started running away from the girl.

With Marco gone that left just Star and Luffy, the later still getting over the magic high Star had unknowingly given him. Said girl turned to look at Luffy with a smile and waited for him to say something. When she realized that Luffy wouldn't say anything anytime soon she decided to start up a conversation.

"Your friend's nice." Star said cheerfully.

"Uh... oh, Marco? Yeah, he's really nice." Luffy looked to his side and noticed that he wasn't there anymore. "Where'd he go though?"

"He said he was going home, left a minute ago." Star told him.

"What! He didn't even wait for me!" Luffy yelled in mock anger. He didn't even tell him that he was leaving. "If I hurry I can catch up to him before he gets home."

"You two live together?" Star asked, she watched as the boy went to one of the lockers and started putting in a combination, 05-05-38. When Luffy opened the locker it is revealed that the only thing occupying the small space was a straw hat. Luffy grabbed the hat and placed it firmly onto his head.

"Ah~ I missed ya, hat." Luffy said as he relaxed a bit. Star looked at the hat in curiosity, a smile still on her face. "Yeah, Marco and I live together, we're family after all."

A look of realization came across her face as she remembered back to her conversation with Skeeves.

"That's right! The principal said that you had a brother, and that he was a safe kid." Star said.

"Yep." Luffy confirmed again before he started racing down the hallway in the direction his brother went. "I'll see ya later Star, got to catch up to Marco!"

"Byee! See you tomorrow, Luffy! Bye!" Star waved at him with the same amount of enthusiasm as she had previously shown with Marco.

"I'm telling you it's strange," Marco said as he walked up the pathway to his house. Luffy had caught up to him awhile back and the two had been having a debate about Star the entire way home.

"If it's so strange then how do you explain the rainbow?" Luffy rebutted.

Marco sighed as Luffy still wasn't getting the point he was trying to get across. Sometimes Marco felt that he shouldn't have to deal with Luffy's inability to process large amounts of information.

"That is what I'm saying, Luffy. Making a rainbow that catches fire isn't normal." He hoped his brother would just understand that magic itself isn't normal.

"But Star said she was from another dimission," Luffy argued.

"Dimension, Luffy." Marco corrected him. "And you actually believe that?"

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I believe her?" It was hopeless. Luffy had already acknowledge that the magic itself was normal, but still chopped it up to being a mystery when presented with the argument that magic can't be normal.

"Whoa, hold up a sec Luffy," Marco says as they stop at the front door. "Do you hear laughing?"

Luffy listened closely and found that he indeed heard laughing. Opening the door, the boys found their parents sitting on the couch with none other than Star Butterfly between them, all three laughing joyfully.

They stopped laughing when they heard the door open and looked to see Luffy and Marco standing in the door frame; Marco was shocked that Star was in his home, while Luffy was surprised and curious as to why.

"Oh, Luffy, Marco! Come meet the new foreign exchange student who's going to be living with us!" Mrs. Diaz said as Star looked between her and the two boys with a large smile on her face as she put things together.

"Wha…?" Marco tried to say but couldn't find the right words to express his shock.

"What! I had no idea that these were your parents!" Star got up and ran over to the two who still stood in the door. She grabbed them both by the hand and pulled them into the house. "I just assumed everyone on Earth had the last name 'Diaz'!"

"Won't it be nice to have Star's upbeat, lively energy around the house?" Their mom asked with a lot of energy herself. Marco and Luffy just stared at her with confusion spread across their faces, Star was between them with a toothy grin.

"Seriously? We already have Luffy, and even if that isn't enough," Marco made a point to point to his brother who was somehow taking this better than himself. "We could have gotten that from a litter of puppies."

Star gasped at the mention of puppies before grabbing Marco's shoulders and getting in his face.

"I… love… puppies!" She yelled as she used her wand and sent a blast of magic to the floor. In the spot now sat 9 puppies that were drooling and wagging their tails before the Diaz family.

"Awww…" Mr. and Mrs. Diaz cooed, the puppies yipping cheerfully at the attention they were receiving. Though their cuteness factor was temporarily put on ice as red lasers started firing out of their eyes.

"Laser eyes?! That is so cool!" Luffy yelled as he immediately turned to Star. "Can I have laser eyes too?!"

"Nooo!" Marco pushed Luffy away from Star to prevent an actual nightmare from taking place. "You already have enough going on with you!"

"Well, they are really cute" Mr. Diaz chuckled as he picked one of the puppies up and held it before him. The puppy didn't hesitate in shooting a laser at the man's eye. "Ah! My eye!"

Mrs. Diaz watched her husband play with the young puppy and the others race around the room, their lasers hitting things left and right. Marco was starting to get angry as he watched one of the puppies blast a hole through a family portrait, the hole just happening to be over his face.

"Marco, why don't you show Star her new room?" Mrs. Diaz recommended. Star cheered and started for the stairs. "And Luffy, can you carry Star's luggage."

Luffy looked at said Luggage which happened to be a wooden chest bigger than him. He didn't see a problem with carrying her stuff and grabbed the wooden chest, easily lifting it into the air and placing it over his back.

Marco and Star were already up the stairs and had missed the impressive feat of the teen. Though his parents saw the whole thing. Mr. and Mrs. Diaz weren't surprised at all, they were already fully aware of their eldest son's full capabilities.

"Hey, wait up!" Luffy quickly followed after his brother and new house guest, and was himself followed by the 9 puppies, all of which were shooting lasers at him.

Unbeknownst to Star and the Diaz family, there was a figure lurking in a tree outside the house. A large man-like frog creature was watching the whole event through a window. The man frog watched as Luffy carried the large chest up the stairs and the puppies following. He laughed as he pulled out a pair of scissors and started cutting the air.

When the scissors made the cut, reality itself split open as a large vortex was now floating before the frog. With a dark chuckle, the frog leaped through the portal and disappeared to the other side, the portal closing behind him.

Location: ?

In a dark stone room a similar vortex appeared and moments after it's formation, arrived the man frog. When he exited the portal, the frog pounded both hands on his chest and then extended them out in a salute followed by a croak.

"Ludo, master, I've tracked down Star Butterfly." The frog spoke in a heavy Russian accent. "They've hidden her in the Earth Dimension. Unguarded."

A wicked laugh came from a large throne that towered over the frog. On either side of the throne was an armed guard that were ready for battle at the blink of an eye. The figure kept laughing before it's throne spun around to reveal a diminutive figure.

"Excellent work, Buff Frog." Ludo said as his laughing dropped to a twisted chuckle. "I knew they couldn't hide that royal brat from me for long. Soon, the wand will be mine. And then the universe. And then…! Actually, the universe should do it."

Ludo narrowed his large yellow eyes as he began plotting on how he would defeat Star and steal her wand. Another evil laugh escaped his beak before a serious air feel over the room.

"I'm coming for you, Princess Butterfly!"

Star's Room

"Here's your new room…" Marco said as he followed the girl into the vacant guest room.

A second later the sound of footsteps and the constant yipping of puppies was heard from behind them. Marco turned to see Luffy standing there with Star's luggage on his back, but blinked when he saw the puppies assaulting the poor teen. The little balls of fur were jumping around Luffy and hopping onto the large chest, one even managed to climb to his head and lay on top of Luffy's straw hat.

"Need some help there?" Marco asked with a bit of concern in his voice.

"Nah, they're not bothering me." Luffy replied with a grin as he put the chest on the ground.

Marco was about to say something but chose to keep his mouth shut; he wasn't asking to help take the puppies off him, but if he needed help with a chest that easily weighed more than him. But after seeing Luffy place it down without much of a struggle Marco could only imagine the limits of Luffy's strength.

"Okay…" Star said, gaining the attention of the boys. She was looking all around the room while she chewed on the head of her magic wand. "I can work with this."

"Sparkle Glitter Bomb Expand!" Star yelled as she jumped into the air with her wand raised above her. Magic exploded out from it hitting the walls, ceiling, bed, everything. The room itself began to change until it extended out of the house and up, making it a wide three story addition to the house. The room itself looked like a tower from a castle, but with a more Star Butterfly feel to it.

"Whoa!" The brother's exclaimed in amazement.

"Ahhh! That's better!" Star cheered as she bounced on her new bed.

"I wish our room was like this, huh Luffy?" Marco asked as he looked around Star's new room.

"You do!" Star gasped as she stopped bouncing on her bed. She bolted out the room and headed straight for Marco's and Luffy's room. Marco followed behind rather quickly with Luffy trailing along with the puppies.

The group got to the room as Star kicked open the door. She waved her wand around as she prepared for her next spell.

"Mystic Room Suck Transform!" Star cast the spell and instead of the room expanding like Star's, a black hole formed on the floor and began sucking in everything around it. Marco and Star screamed in shock as Luffy screamed in amazement for what seemed like the hundredth time that day.

Luffy wrapped his arms around the two to prevent them from being sucked in. Luckily Star was able to grab the handle for the door and close it before any of them could get pulled in. Unfortunately, a puppy that had gotten to close to the hole was immediately sucked in, lessening the litter from 9 to 8.

Marco and Star took the chance to catch their breath, each thanking Luffy for grabbing them in time before Marco turned a heated glare at Star.

"Suck?! Suck?! Why was the word suck in that spell?!" Marco demanded.

"I don't know! It just came out that way!" Star defended herself; for the first time since he met her, Luffy saw that Star wasn't smiling. He decided he would let Marco deal with the situation, because he would only get sidetracked and end up asking her to show him the spell again.

Marco groaned as he slammed his head into the door, the sound of the black hole's vacuum present behind the closed door.

"I'm sorry, Marco." Star apologized, hoping that Marco would forgive her for messing up.

"Ahh, Marco's fine. He wouldn't let something like this get him down!" Luffy said, making Star feel slightly better while also giving her an idea.

"I know, how about a little sunshine to brighten your day?" Star used her wand to create a tiny sun with a smile above Marco's head. Though to her displeasure the sun turned into a grey storm cloud and started pouring on Marco.

"Aw…" Star whined, she was upset that she had screwed things up yet again that day.

"I can't take this anymore!" Marco shouted, pulling at his hair. "If you're moving in, I am moving out!"

Marco walked up to an open window and prepared to climb out it. When his foot hit the stile, the rainwater caused him to lose traction, and causing him to slip out the window. Luffy and Star got to the window and looked out to see Marco laying in the cacti garden.

"Are you okay?" Star asked, worried for his health after the fall.

"Luckily, the cactuses broke my fall." Marco grunted out as he looked up to see Luffy and Star leaning out the window. Star looked worried for him while Luffy…

"Hahaha," Luffy laughed hysterically as he looked at his brother's misfortune. "Marco you're stupid! Hahaha!"

"I don't want to hear that from you!" Marco yelled back up at him.

"Do you need any help?" Star asked the teen, who was now beginning to stand up.

"Ow! I'm fine!" Marco hollered, walking away from the house. "Just leave me alone!"

Luffy watched his brother walk away before looking to his side, noticing Star start to whimper as she contemplated what to do. She walked away from the window before rushing back, repeating this action a few time.

"Don't worry Star, he'll be fine." Luffy reassured her. Star took a moment to think about something before turning to look at Luffy, a frown on her face.

"Luffy, do you think I made a mistake?" Luffy raised a brow in confusion making her sigh and lean on the window stile. "I just feel like… like I forced myself into your lives and caused you guys a lot of problems. Was it a mistake coming here?"

"I don't know," Luffy shrugged as he watched Star fall deeper into her slump.

"I should just leave…"

"Why?" Star looked at the boy with the straw hat for a moment in confusion. She was having a hard time figuring out what Luffy meant, and his blank expression wasn't really helping her.

"Because… I've caused you and Marco trouble, and even drove him out of his own home." Star explained feeling herself tear up a bit. "I don't belong here."

"Yeah, you do." Star stared confused but felt a smile grow as Luffy continued. "You're my friend and I want you here, so does Marco. And if he can't see that himself then he's being an idiot!"

"Awww, thanks for saying that, Luffy. Hugs!" Star pulled Luffy into a hug which he returned full force, large toothy smiles on their faces. The two separated and Star had her smile back, and a new look of determination. "I need to find Marco, and apologize. Do you know where he'd go?"

"I know where he is." Luffy grinned as he made his way through the window, Star following behind him, already knowing what she was gonna say to Marco.

Stop & Slurp

"Here he comes. Here he comes. Hey, brother, do me a solid! Refill this for me!" Marco yelled as a random pedestrian walked by him. He still had a cloud above his head and rain getting poured on him, but on the bright side of things, he had a candy bar and a now empty drink in his hands.

"They won't let me back inside because I'm soooooggyyyyyy!" Marco yelled as he started jumping around. A mother and child then came out of the small store, causing Marco to turn his attention to them immediately. "Did you bring me my refill?!"

"Don't make eye contact." The mother whispered to her child as the two quickened their pace to get away from the insane teenager.

Marco sloppily opened the candy rapper and loudly chew chewed on the sweet chocolate. He was quickly losing his mind, and was running out of food and beverages. He would die at this rate and it seemed no one care.

"You come to my house, you bring toilet paper!" Marco yelled at the mother and child as they left his view. Suddenly, Marco felt a presence behind him. Turning around, he prepared to beg the person to get him a refill but jumped back in shock as he came face to face with Star.

"Whoa! What are you doing here?" He asked her with a suspicious glare; looking behind the girl he saw Luffy standing there with his hands on his hips and a large smile on his face. What Marco wasn't expecting though was for Star to use her wand to make the rain-cloud disappear.

"I didn't get a choice about coming here to Earth, and you didn't get a choice about having to deal with me." Star told the teen whose glare softened. "I wanted to apologize, and if you want me to, I'll… I'll find another family to live with."

"S-S-Star, L-Luffy?" Star and Luffy looked at Marco for a moment before he pointed behind them. Behind them stood a group of monsters that had bloodthirsty looks on their faces, and every last one of them was growling at them.

"Star Butterfly! At last, I've found you!" The shortest of the group yelled as he made his way to the front.

"Ludo!" Star gasped as she recognized the monster. "How did you you know I was here?"

"Wouldn't you like to know?" Ludo chuckled as he crossed his arms in triumph.

"Yes. That's why I asked." Star nodded her head.

"Well, Buff Frog-"

"Hey Star, who's the weird munchkin?" Luffy asked, pointing to Ludo who was growling at him in response.

"Who are you calling a munchkin, Straw Hat?!" Ludo yelled at Luffy before redirecting his attention to Star. "And I don't have to tell you anything! Get her!"

At Ludo's command the monsters let out a mighty roars and began to charge Star. Star got into an attack stance and prepared to defend herself and her friends, but was surprised when both Luffy and Marco jumped in front of her.

Marco had took a wide crouched stance with both his hands held out in front of him, ready to strike at any moment. Luffy stood beside his brother completely relaxed, swinging his arm slowly like a windmill, unlocking his shoulder for the fight about to come.

When the first monster approached, a warthog looking creature with three eyes, Marco immediately went on the offensive. With a 'hi-yaa' Marco punches the monster in the gut before jumping up and delivering an axe kick to his head. The monster feel to the ground in pain as Star laughed cheerfully.

"You can fight?!" Star asked with a beaming smile. She couldn't help it, what Marco had just done looked really cool to her. He had such skill!

"It's called… karate!" Marco told her while making a chopping motion in the air. "But you haven't seen anything yet, Star."

Star was going to ask what he meant before she saw Luffy pick up a leg and lean back. Her curiosity only peaked as she saw his arm still spinning like a windmill, but this time it was nothing but a blur.

"We can do more than fight, Star!" Luffy told her with confidence. "We can beat these guys up!"

"Now Gum-Gum," Luffy yelled as a bear with a horn charged Luffy. "Pistol!"

Luffy's arm shot forward in into the monster's cheek, but it didn't stop there. Star, Ludo and his monsters watched in shock as Luffy's arm stretched past normal limits, carrying Bearicorn with his fist until inertia took full control, and the monster started skidding across the ground. Star and the monsters looked at Luffy with gaping mouths as his arm snapped back into place.

"What?! You guy's lose the will to fight?" Luffy asked as he grinned at the monsters.

"What… was… that?!" Star screamed as she stared at Luffy with wide eyes, an ear splitting smile coming to her face. "It was awesome!"

"Hm? Oh, I ate the Gum-Gum Fruit," Luffy said turning to look back at Star, grabbing a corner of his mouth and pulling it past any normal limit. "I'm a rubber man! Shishishi!"

"You said she was unguarded!" Ludo yelled at Buff Frog who only shrugged his shoulders in confusion. "Whatever… now listen here Straw Hat, Karate Boy! I don't care if you ate the jam-jam fruit or even the stupid-stupid fruit, we're taking that magic wand!"

At Ludo's declaration the monsters gave another mighty roar before charging them all at once. Marco, Luffy and Star got into a combat position and prepared for battle as the remaining monsters came at them.

A deer monster with a beard came at Star with a hammer and swung it horizontally in hopes of sweeping her off her feet. Star jumped over it, but Beard Deer was prepared as he brought the hammer above his head. Thinking fast, Star kicked him in the stomach; losing his grip on the hammer it went high into the air before coming back down and hitting him in the head. Taking out her wand she began her finisher by sending a torrent of water into his chest, sending him flying back.

Marco ran straight for a potato looking monster with three eyes, and jumped into the air. Performing a jump kick, Marco nailed the Three-eyed Potato Baby square in the nose. Getting thrown off balance, the monster tried to steady himself, but was knocked completely off his feat by a chop to the side of the head.

Luffy stood before a two headed red monster with a clearly confidant smirk on his face. Planning to end it before it even began, Luffy sent both his arms flying behind him. The monster looked at Luffy nervously as he, and everyone else, had witnessed what he had done to Bearicorn. Within a second Luffy was already before him, his attack ready.

"Twin Pistol!"

Both Luffy's fists shot straight into the monster's two faces and sent him flying back without him even putting up a fight.

Back with Star, she was currently facing a giant giraffe-headed monster that was growling down at her. She quickly jumped behind him and onto his neck; the giraffe tried to turn to see her but it was already too late as Star had jumped off his neck and pointed her wand at him.

"Rainbow Fist Punch!"

A large fist made out of a solid rainbow came from Star's wand and hit the giraffe in the jaw. He fell back, his head breaking through the window of a car where he laid defeated.

A monster tried to sneak up on Star and catch her off guard but she anticipated this, spinning around and smashing her wand over the monster's head.

Marco quickly made his way next to her as he chopped another monster that had tried their luck sneaking up on the princess. The two smiled at each other as they fought off the remaining monsters together.

"You're embarrassing me!" Ludo yelled as one of his minions were knocked down near him. He was getting more frustrated by the minute, seeing his monsters get defeated so easily by the three teens. "Get up!"

"You're an embarrassment to yourself, Lupo!" Luffy yelled as he grabbed a monster by his shoulder, picked him up and threw him into a wall.

"It's Ludo!" Ludo corrected the rubbery teen.

"Who cares!" Luffy yelled back.

"Gum-Gum," He twisted his hips as he shot his leg back. "Star, Marco, duck!"

Star and Marco listened to Luffy as they hit the ground with knowing smirks.

"Whip!"

Luffy's leg swung in a horizontal arc, hitting any monster in it's path and dragging them with the stretching limb. With little to no effort Luffy sent the monsters surrounding the two flying away. Star and Marco stood up and sped off to deal with the remaining monsters.

Buff Frog sees his companions losing and let's out a roar. He went over to a streetlight and tore it off at it's base, planning to use it as a club. Upon seeing this Star turned her attention to the large frog man and readied her wand.

"Jelly Bean Hallucination Mist!"

Buff Frog was hit by the magic attack and dropped the streetlight as he looked at his hands, his pupils dilated. All around him jelly beans rained from the sky, and faces grew on his hands.

"Whoa… what is happening?" Buff Frog asked as he tripped out.

Star grinned as she took Buff Frog out of the fight, she turned to look to her side where Marco stood ready to fight along with her. The two though weren't paying attention as Three-eyed Potato Baby and a big chicken punched the two of them into the ground.

Marco retaliated instantly, pushing off the ground and kicking Big Chicken in the neck before delivering a chop to the potato's face. The two monsters fell back as the two stood before them, grinning the whole time.

Star raised her wand as she looked at the two on the ground and prepared to unleash her final spell, ready to end the fight.

"Mega… Narwhal Blast!" Like the spell's name implied, the wand shot out an army of narwhals.

The spell defeated the last of Ludo's minions, the former looking around at his fallen monster's in disappointment. He thought that taking the wand would be easy if it was just the princess, but he had not taken into account her bodyguards, especially one with such a weird and disturbing ability.

"You want some of this, Ludo?" Ludo turned to see Star standing behind him, a smug look on her face due to her and her friends' triumph.

"No…" He pulled out a pair of scissors and cut into the air, creating a portal. "You see, you morons?! This is what happens when you don't work out! Your muscles are like pudding! Come on, back in the portal, back in the portal."

"Hey where do you thi- awesome, what is that?!" Luffy yelled as he ran after Ludo but stopped when he saw the portal. While Luffy was distracted by the portal, Ludo's minions started to shuffling through the hole in reality.

"You even retreat like losers!" After Buff Frog entered the portal Ludo was next, stopping to say one last thing to the group. "I'll get you, Star Butterf-"

Ludo never got to finish his threat as the portal closed around hi neck. He struggled to squeeze his head through the small hole but found it difficult to do so. Giving off an awkward laugh, Ludo looked to his three enemies with an embarrassed smile.

"Could one of you help me?" Luffy walked up to him and placed his hand on Ludo's head, and gave a not too gentle push. Ludo's head went through the hole with a small 'pop', the only thing remaining of him was his skull crown.

Silence remained as the three stood without saying anything, until one of them couldn't hold it in.

"That was amazing! I was amazing! You guys were amazing!" Marco exclaimed as he looked at Star and Luffy.

"It was nothing!" Luffy humbly said as he scratched the back of his head, smiling stupidly at the complement.

"Yeah. I guess we were…" Star agreed as she smiled at Luffy and Marco. Her smile fell though as she remembered the events before Ludo's attack. "Well… I should probably go pack my bags."

Marco watched as Star walked away with her eyes staring at the ground. He took a minute to think of something, he looked at Luffy for help, but was meet with a look of shame directed at him. Sighing, Marco followed after Star.

"Wait!" Marco placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her in her tracks. "I don't want you to go. I want you to stay with us."

"Really?!" She turned around with a beaming smile.

Marco nodded.

"Hugs!" Star grabbed Marco and gave him a hug, something that surprised him.

"Shishishi, told ya!" Luffy said as he approached the two with a megawatt smile of his own.

The three started their walk home, and Marco started performing some of his karate moves, imagining more opponents he would defeat.

"Are there gonna be monsters attacking us all the time?" He hoped the answer would be yes.

"Yeah, probably." Star answered simply.

"All right! Sounds so dangerous!" Marco cheered.

"Hey, Star…" Star looked at Luffy, whose mouth was hanging open with drool dripping down his chin. "You can make anything with magic, right?"

"Yep, why?"

"MEAT!" Luffy roared at the top of his lungs, shocking Star and making Marco shake his head, a smile on his face. "Can you make me some meat, please?! Please?!"

"O-Okay, let's just get back first,"

Star hadn't known what she had done that day, but the wheels of fate were already in motion,

"Then what are we waiting for?" Luffy grabbed Star's and Marco's hands and started dragging the two with him as he raced home.

Their friendship forged through adversity,

"Luffy, slow down!" Marco tried to get Luffy to slow down but was unsuccessful as the only thought in his brother's head was on filling his stomach.

Bonds tied together by thin straw, but woven tightly together to form greatness

"Luffy, we don't need to rush!" Star had given her try at stopping Luffy but was also ignored.

A new adventure was just over the horizon,

"Luffy!" Marco and Star called out, getting a laugh from the straw hat wearing teen.

Set off! And head straight for Romance Dawn!


A friendship blooms, a road of opportunities lay ahead!
