Hello, first of all thanks for giving this story a read out of all the other ones that you could have chosen. Second this is my first story attempt so there will be lots of mistakes and errors or parts of the story that just aren't very good, so please leave any criticism so that I can become a better writer. It would really help if when you don't understand something or think I'm focusing on one area too much you say something so I can correct my mistakes.
Also I have a general idea of where I want to take this story but if you feel like it should go in a different direction, ships, characters, etc, than please say so as I will try and put it in the story if I like the idea. Oh, and this isn't going to have all the characters with the same personalities as in the show so just be warned, once again please tell me if you think that this is a good idea. Finally, just in case someone doesn't understand when I say (Outside POV) it means that the point of view is like what it is in the show when we just watch the action from an outside perspective.
Okay I'm done sorry for talking for so long TO THE STORY.
Chapter 1)
(Outside POV)
Today was perhaps the most important day in Star Butterfly's life, as the daughter of Queen Moon, Star was the princess of Mewni and soon to be the wielder of the magical royal wand which was one of the most powerful objects in the universe. Today Star was going to be given the royal wand to show all of Mewni's citizens that she was ready to begin the journey to becoming queen and accepting the responsibilities that come with it. Today Star was finally going to show the world that she was ready to control the power of the royal wand an use it responsibly.
(One Spell Later)
"Mom it was an accident I didn't mean to set the kingdom of fire" groaned Star while trying to wrestle her father, River Butterfly, for the royal wand "I promise that next time I'll be more careful".
"There isn't going to be a next time" Moon snapped back "until you can control yourself properly you won't be using the wand AT ALL" she said as a servant tried and failed to successfully put out the fire that had started on her head.
"Oh, for the love of STOP" Moon yelled as she grabbed the royal wand from the two royals who were fighting for it and pointed it at her hair putting out the fire "in fact I don't think you can control yourself at all, we may need to give you some 'help'."
Star's eyes suddenly opened wide as she asked "y-you don't mean that you're going to" she asked preparing for the worst.
"Yes, Star I'm 'afraid' that we are going to have to send you to St Olga"
"Oh Moon don't you think it's a little bit early to send her to that priso- I mean school" River said hoping that Star didn't notice his little slip up. It was a well known fact that when a princess went to St Olga they were treated like criminal's and either returned emotionless or didn't return at all. Fortunately, it didn't appear that she did hear him as Star was currently moving her head side from side while mouthing 'no' and looking for an escape from her current situation. "Star it's okay" River said trying to calm her down "you know recently me and Moon found a place called 'Urth' where you might be able to safety practi-"
"Actually, it's called Earth and I thought we agreed not to" Moon said while glaring at River "I mean Dear" she said with a forced smile "it's full of people who we have no control over" Star suddenly glanced up looking excited at the idea of this "and there isn't even magic there" Moon continued.
"Wait what do you mean by no magic" Star asked confused "doesn't every dimension have to have magic and how do the people live withou-"
"Star it doesn't matter because you're not going there anyway, I'm sure you will agree that St Olga is a much safer place to learn about the responsi-"
"No, I want to go to this 'Earth'" Star said with Moon now glaring at her "Star" Moon said in a tone that implied that she shouldn't have interrupted her "it doesn't matter what you want it matters what is best for the kingdom and its people".
It was at this point that River decided to suggest his idea as he had seen this conversation many times and knew that it would last forever if he didn't interrupt "Moon pie" he began already regretting his decision as Moon stared daggers into him "m-maybe we should let her go to Earth and see if her behaviour improves over time".
"Do you really think that a planet full of creatures who don't even have access to magic could teach Star better than our entire kingdom" Moon spat out now enraged that River was agreeing with Star. "She isn't even able to control herself, who would even teach her magic, who would make her choices, to keep her safe"
"Maybe I want to make my own choices for once" Star said under her breath, unfortunately for Star though Moon heard it. "Fine you can go to 'Earth'" Moon told Star her voice dripping with venom "BUT when you learn that you can't handle yourself then we will send you straight to St Olga's". Star would have agreed but she was still recovering from the fact that Moon said that she could go to Earth and away form her 'YES I'm finally going to be able to leave this stupid castle and stop being treated like a slave' she thought before yelling "YES" and running head first into the newly made portal.
(One Tear through the Fabric of Existence Later)
(Star POV)
"AHHHHH" I screamed as I fell to the ground, THUD, 'I don't like Earth anymore' was all I could think after landing face first in a pile of dirt and falling through a tree. Suddenly I heard more screaming and looked up to see my dad, my mom, and three servants all falling right above me.
"Sorry Pumpkin" River apologised "Normally I'm more accurate with these". "It's okay dad I'm fine" I say after having mom, dad and the three servants all fall on me "at least it can't get worse". "Yes, well about that" He replied nervously rubbing his neck "it looks like we are in the wrong place so we may have to walk for a bit to avoid another fall, I can give you one of my famous piggy backs there if you want though"
"Ok then" was all I could say back.
(Marco POV)
'Well this day turned out horribly' was all I could think 'I mean seriously first I'm late so I can't see Jackie, then Janna steals my homework so I get in trouble for not doing it and finally the exchange student I have to wait for is 2 hours late, you know what I might just go home' I thought while getting up off the ground to leave the school. "Marco where do you think that you're going" I heard the principal say behind me "um well I just wanted to uh maybe go home now" I said hoping that he would let me leave "Not without your new exchange student you're not" he said pointing behind me.
I turned around to one of the strangest thing's I had ever seen, there was a blonde girl with stick's and dirt stuck in her hair while 3 people wearing weird uniforms tried to remove the mess. Behind her was a man who had a crown on his head and was holding the other four people on his back. Finally, there was an older lady behind everyone else holding a... a wand?
"Excuse me are you" the blonde girl said before checking a piece of paper that one of the uniformed men handed her "Marco Diaz".
"Um yes" I replied not sure what else to say the her "that's me and you are?"
"Star Butterfly, princess of Mewni and the current holder of" she said before doing a little drumroll "the royal magic wand". 'Wait what' was all I could think for a few seconds before realising what was happening and turning to what I assumed was her parents "is she using any drugs I asked?". There was an awkward silence before the older woman sighed and pulled out the 'magic wand' and… blasted a hole in wall next to me.
It took me around a full two minutes before I processed what had happened and just stared at the wand while slowly backing away. "Marco Diaz" the woman with the wand said immediately getting my full attention "listen carefully as I will not repeat myself to you, now" she continued before one of the what I now assumed to be servants tapped her on shoulder and whispered into her ear "wait the castle rebuilders are expecting a meeting right now" she asked.
After the servant nodded she turned back to me with a look of annoyance in her eyes "you will protect my daughter and this wand understand, good now Star will tell you the rest" and then she… used a pair of scissors to create a portal before turning around and saying "tell me when you learn you aren't safe here Star so you can send you to St Olga" then walking through the portal that she just made... and then I finally fainted.
Wow, this came out so much worse than I thought it would. Really sorry to anyone still reading for the slow (and bad) start, once again this is my first time writing anything and as you can probably see I'm not that good. This was meant to be a bit longer, but I realised that none of the ideas that I wanted to be here were actually here, I never realised that getting an idea in your head down on paper would be this hard. Though I did manage to get some ideas in and even a bit of foreshadowing (think of the portal's and Moon's behaviour which is good. So I am going to continue writing this (even if no one reads it) so that I can hopefully get better. I know I'm repeating myself, but this is really important, any and I mean any criticism that you have PLEASE tell me, even if it's just something like I focus on telling the story to much through dialogue and not enough in other ways or something like you want me to space out my paragraphs more or less.
Also, I forgot to mention but if you don't really know how fanfiction works (like me) or any other reason but still want to tell me something I am on Amino and am called Frosty, I have Marco Diaz as my picture and the only community I'm in is Svtfoe, so you can leave comments on there too. Well sorry that this probably wasn't a very interesting story so far for you it was meant to be a lot better. Also, last thing I will try and update this every 1-4 days (hopefully an average of 2) but if you want me to be more constant than please say so as I'm still not sure if anyone is actually reading this (if there's a way to check I don't know). By the way if anyone actually liked this then I'm thinking of doing something where you send me a set of conditions or something like 'Star is evil in this one' or 'a romance about Kelly and Marco' and i try and make a short story out of it so feel free to do this is you want a specific story and can't find it. Oh and the fighting and action and romance is still to come although I have actually decided that you guys should get to choose the ships as you're the ones reading so, the choice is yours (unless it conflicts with the story).
