The alarm clock goes off for another day for young fourteen year old Marco Diaz
With a quick flick of the wrist the alarm clock is silenced, popping his neck as soon as he got out of bed he claps his hand and drops into a push-up position and starts doing his daily morning warm up first on the list two rounds of 180 degree push-ups, he finishes just in time for breakfast "Marco breakfast is ready" Mrs. Diaz calls up stairs to her son,
Marco gets off the floor making his way down stair "Morning mom dad" Marcos said in a dead mans tone, he sits down in front of his meal, joining hands with his mother and father they say grace before they dig in (Steak and eggs for breakfast)
"So Marco what do you have plain today" Mr. Diaz ask trying to break the silence
With a shrug of the shoulder "School and what ever happened after that"
The silence returns with vengeance, this time it's mothers turn to break the silence "Oh yes Marco just so you know we are going to get a foreign exchange student" Mrs. Diaz getting excited
Marco raises an eyebrow at his mother, letting out a disappointed sigh "Fine, I just hope it doesn't end up like the last one" his parent avoided making eye contact
Mr. Diaz lets out a nervous chuckle "Well it just a misunderstanding"
"DAD" Marco coldly interrupts his father "That little punk was bleeding you and mom out of all your savings" with ice cold venom dripping from his emotionless voice "Worst part of all you were allowing him to do so"
Mr. Diaz and Mrs. Diaz open there mouth to protest but in stead just stuff some breakfast into it they couldn't argue with their son when he has that look in his eye, Mrs. Diaz looks at the clock "Marco it's time for you to get going before you miss the bus"
Marco looks at the clock, grunting as a response he finishes his breakfast quickly dropping his dishes off in the sink and runs out of the house grabbing his bag on the way out "I'll see you after school" Marco calls out as he leaves the house
"Marco is a great boy, Marco is a great son, Marco his a great boy, Marco is a great son" Before Mr. Diaz could repeat himself Mrs. Diaz covers his mouth her hand
"Shoooo" pull him closer cradling his head "Shoooo"
"I'm sorry honey" he holds her closer "I'm just ashamed of myself"
"Yes I know I ashamed of myself too, being afraid of are own loving amazing son, but..." she reaches into his back pocket pulling out his wallet,before flipping it opening, she turns around on her husbands lap so he can see the picture of a four year old Marco with a bright beaming smile the could warm your heart and melt your soul
A tear rolls down his face, follows a tear rolling down her face "Marco my loving amazing wonder gift from god, what has happen to you?"
Marco is sitting on the bus listening to the children on the bus with him and having a staring contest with the roof
("Oh great another foreign exchange student, hopefully this one isn't a pain to deal with") He lets out a yawn followed by a sneeze that startled the bus driver making him swerve, he quickly regains control and shoots Marco with a glare, raises an eyebrow at the bus driver and shrugs it off, closes his eyes and rest his neck and head on the back of the seat,
Before he zones out he hears a sweet familiar giggle, that makes him open an eye to see the angle thats sitting across from him "Smooth, good going Marco you scared the bus driver"
("Jackie") He doesn't reply he just closes his eye
The Bus arrives at school
An announcement echos thru the school "Will all the first year, go the gymnasium. All first years to gymnasium"
Marco put his stuff in his locker ("Well thats me") he and all the other first years made there way to gymnasium
Marco finds himself a conferrable place on the top row in the corner he lays down claiming what his, no one really cared they just shrugged in off and let him be "Welcome all of you to your first year to Echo creek high!" half of the students cheered as the teacher explain how thing work in the school.
Marco not wanting to have anything to do with it he just roll his eyes before continuing having staring contest with the roof he looks around ("Where is she") he spots her two rows down from him an arm length away yes he'll have to fall off his seat, but he can reach her and he want to touch her to feel her beauty sun kissed skin in his cold lifeless flesh *Closing his hand letting out a quiet popping* he shacks his head and goes back looking at the ceiling and finally going to sleep
After the end of the introduction everyone gets up to get their classes
"Hey Jackie who do you have for homeroom?" Janna asked as she looking over her classes
"I got Miss. Skullnick for homeroom and second period" Jackie said to her friend
"Really, so do I" Janna rolled her eyes
As the pair complain about having the same class twice in a row one of the teachers calls out "Marco Diaz, Mr Diaz please come here to get you class schedule!"
("Marco?") Jackie looks up into the bleachers after hearing his name finding him still asleep on the very top row "Hey Janna lets go wake up Marco before the teacher has a meltdown on the first day of school"
Janna follows her best-friend's thumb to the sleeping Marco "Ya why not" she shrugs
The two quickly heads tours the sleeping fourteen year old half way up Jackie stop, turns interrupting the teacher "Hold on please Marco Diaz is asleep right now, I will be back down with him"
The teacher gives her a nod "Thank you Miss. Thomas"
Jackie turns around and continues up the stairs leading to the sleeping teen, when Jackie join Janna she finds her friend taking a picture of him while he sleep "Hey Jackie he looks like a junk yard dog having a nightmare" she holds up her cell so her friend could see the picture
Earning her a giggle "Wow he does" Jackie gently shakes "Marco"
Before she could finishes her sentence Marco's eyes shoot open revealing blood red orbs with lifeless pitch black in the center followed quickly by his right hand shoots up grabbing her by the throat picking her up and slamming her against the wall behind him, he comes in fast with a left hook before he could make contact Jackie let out a scream Marco recognizing it he was able to redirect his left hook into the wall "Jackie?"
"Marco?" Looking into his eyes she watches the wight returns and the lifeless black holes return to their natural brown that matches his hair, gently placing her back on her feet he sit down hiding his face in his hands. Janna grabs Jackie and tries to pull her away to get away from him, she pulls away from her friend, sitting in front of him "Marco is there something you want to talk about?"
Marco looks up from his hands at the angel that's sitting in front of him, he couldn't reply seeing that she bleeding from where he had grab her, he starts treating the injury, despite her embarrassment "I'm sorry Jackie" he whispers to her
"Marco you need to go up and get your schedule" Jackie said after he got done treating her injury, looking at her sweet face one last time with a painful question ringing in his head ("Why are you smiling at me like that") he nods his head, getting up he offers a hand to her she takes it, he leads her to the stair after they reach the stairs he lets go and goes down the stairs with Jackie right behind him
The pair reach the teacher thats waiting for Marco to come get his schedule "What happen Jackie, did Marco"
"Whoa whoa whoa, teach it's cool Marco was just having a nightmare there is nothing to get worked up about" Jackie defending "By the way Marco what was your nightmare about that made you get all aggressive about?"
Marco watches Jackie defending and forgiving him at the same time ("Why would an angel like you ever be wasted on some one like me?") Marco thought as she turns around asking about the his nightmare, he lets out a sigh of defeat "I wouldn't call it a nightmare, but in away you could call it a nightmare" Janna joins in on listening to Marco's dream "I've been having this recurring dream it starts out simple a blacked out room of nothing I'm just floating there in this vast of nothing, after laying there for what feels like I don't know five minutes then I started hear this humming, thats how it started and with every passing dream the humming gets closer now it got close enough that it sounds like soft sing, and the thing about the humming it feels like I'm being torn apart the closer and closer it gets"
"Ya now that you mention it must of been some nightmare because when your eyes shot open they where completely blood red with lifeless black orbs" Janna added her own two cents into the story
"Really?" Marco looks at Janna and Jackie with his blank stare, they both nod their head in slow unity "Well thats not a good sign" Marco replays scratches the back of his head
He gets lost in thought and memories until he feels a tug on his shirt sleeve "What do you mean" following the voice to the angel it belongs to
"In one of my recurring dreams there where a pair of blood red eye with life less black orbs in the middle and this clicking noises the noises the sounds when you swipes two blades together" recalling the dream sparks a feeling
Janna literally pushes him to continue "Your not done are you, finish"
"When I was looking into them they were... familiar and long ..." Marco walks away leaving the two and the teacher hanging "lost desire" he said loud enough that he was the only one could hear
"Hey" Before Janna could finished Jackie covers her mouth
"If he doesn't want to say we can't make him" Jackie said wishing he would quit pushing her away
The rest of the school went on with out any other problem so it was just another day until the last period of class the principle's voice echos "Marco Diaz to the principle's office, Marco Diaz to the principle's office"
Marco finishing off the last of his notes looks up to the intercom letting out a groan as he gets on his feet "Now what does the money whore want with me now" Marco said to himself as he made his way out of class, loud enough for every one in his class to hear earning him some giggles and some trying to hold back their laughter, until Miss Skullnic snaps at the class to be quiet, going back painting her toe nails
On his way to the principle's office he sees him drooling over a chest full of gold with two fancy dress people resembling a king and queen and a blond around his age playing with a fountain, doing a complete U turning joining the group "Ahhh and there he is Marco Diaz my boy, Mr and Mrs Butterfly you ask for the strongest, sturdiest, risk free, responsible, to guide your daughter and here he is everything you ask for and more"
"Okay I'll bite why did you call me here principle" Marco's cold and sturdy voice sent shivers up the spines of the Butterfly family getting their undivided attention
"You see Marco my boy Mr and Mrs Butterfly asked me to give their daughter here the most responsible student to her guide" As the principle goes on explaining why Marco is a good choice the blond joins her mother and father "I thought who better then to guide their daughter then the safest kid in all the school the kid who single handily stopped all the bulling not only in middle school but here as well when he was still in elementary school" The principle tries to pinch Marco's cheek
Before he could even touch his cheek Marco grabs him by the wrist and picks him off his feet "Don't do that" dropping him on his butt
"Right right I'm sorry, now then if you excuse me I'll leave you four alone to get acquainted" Principle leaves all giddy "I'm finally going go hit the ice cream parlor and try all fifty two flavors"
When the principle was finally out of hearing rang Marco pulls out a bag full of all the gold that was in the chest he had "I'm keeping this"
The three go wide eyed, the blond getting all excited "OOOOOOO how did you do that!" She exclaims jumping up and down clapping her hand wanting to know his secretes
Marco ignoring her, lets out a sigh "Who are you three and what is this all about" saying this comes out more like an order then a question
The king and queen raises an eye brow at the young man's attitude "I am King River Butterfly" the shortest of the trio spoke sounding how a king should giving Marco a bow
"I'm Queen Moon Butterfly" The tallest of the trio spoke after with a polite bow and what ever of a smile she could pull off do to the young man attitude "and this is"
"I'm the magical princess from another dimension, my name is Star Butterfly" she said this with an elegant spin around summing a rainbow with other little creators with it, that quickly caught fire and the creators run away with what sound like screaming, the cold stair she was getting from Marco sucked the cheer from her
"Get that stupid smile off your face" he orders out of aggravation as the school caught on fire. The trio was taken back by his cold response, as he quickly grabs a fire extinguisher and puts out the fire after successfully putting out the fire he lets out a sigh "Walk and talk with me" Marco told them as he turns around snapping his fingers as he walks away "I need to drop of this gold to the front office" Everyone looks at him as he walks away from them, looking back he notice they aren't following him "What, this money is for the school right?"
Moon looks at her trembling daughter who is hiding behind her "Come on Star" taking her by the hand she follows after Marco with the king right behind his wife and daughter keeping his eyes locked on the young man they are going to entrust their daughter's well being to he stands there waiting for the trio so he can continued their conversation
"So now what is the meaning of this" Marco's cold voice makes the trio jump
"Excuse me?" Moon ask as she pry her daughter off her dress before she rips it
"I mean why are you here, why are you leaving your daughter here and what is going on" Marco ask as he fixes a loose tile in the walk way
"Oh right, right you see Marco are daughter is dangerous, reckless and need to learn to control her magic in a safe environment..." The king stopping his explanation as he sees Marco cleaning up some broken glass
As the king explain Star seems unable to break her gaze away from the terrifying young man "Why did you stop, I'm listening continue" Marco snapping his finger as if ordering the king to continue
The king clears his throat "As I was saying" River's aggravation seems to be raising it self "Are daughter needs a safe place to learn to control her magic so we are sending her here to earth to do so" they reached the main office of the school
"Hi there Emmy" Marco getting the attestation of the main office clerk
"Hello Mr. Daiz how may I help you?" she said obviously not wanting him around
Marco drops the bag of gold on the counter, Marco pointing at the king and queen with his thumb "Donation"
"Awwww let me guess they gave this to the principle, didn't they?" She rolls her eyes
"You know it" Marco said not really caring
The woman scoops up the bag up "Thank you Marco" She leaves her attitude tours the young man didn't change
"Okay let me get this strait your daughter here is an all around natural disaster" Marco is interrupted
"Haven't I seen you before" Star grabs Marco by the face and tries to turn it to the right, but can't so she stands next facing his right side "Ya I have, I saw you on Mewney before I got my wand"
"No you didn't. so you believe taking her out of her natural advertisement" Marco picking up where he left off, but is interrupted again
"Yes, yes I did, I was on the back of a unicorn heading tours the castle and you where running in the opposite direction with these cool black skeleton arms, but you looked older" Star said as she pokes Marco's face
"No you didn't you might have saw someone who looks like me, but you didn't see me. Well anyways, will help her and become an amazing queen" Marco finishing his sentence, Moon and River looked at each other then look at Marco who is having his face poked until he finally pushes her away out of annoyance
Moon speaks up "In a nut shell yes" Marco lets out a sigh obviously not wanting anything to do with her or them "Well then honey it's time for me and your father return to Mewney" she gives her daughter a kiss on the cheek and a hug, pulling out a pair of dimensional scissors and cuts open a portal back to Mewney "You are not allowed to leave Star you here me"
"Yes mommy" Star said, bowing her head receiving a kiss on her forehead
"Yes dear take care, HUGS!" The two cheers together as they shared a hug "Call me if that young man is any trouble to you and I'll straiten him up" he whisper in his daughter ear, giving him one last glare River enters the portal
When the portal is gone "Okay what next Safe kid?" She said all happy until she turn around seeing Marco is no longer there "Hey where are you going" she yells at him
"I'm going home" He bellows, leaving her where she stood
"Bye new Friend , bye see you tomorrow, bye new friend" she cheered as she wave bye and he doesn't even look over his shoulder
("What is going on right now") Marco grabs his forehead "My head hurts" Marco walks all the way home in a complete funk when he finally makes back home a held breath finally escape his lips when he is open the door he is welcome by laughter and unholy sight "Marco come and meet the new foreign exchange student that will be living with us" the sight just get worst with that excited smile of hers
"Wha what these are" She is interrupted by the slamming of the door "Your parents?"
Marco is standing on the front porch with his hand covering his eyes "Please tell me I'm just seeing thing, thats all thats going in my house she isn't truly in my house is not going to live with me"
Marco takes a deep breath and slowly opens the door and there she stood she throws her arms in the air ready to hug him with a bright beaming smile "HI" The door slams in her face again "iiiiiiiii?" she looks over to Mrs Mr Diaz looking for a question "Did I do something wrong" the couple let out a nerves chuckle
She cutely stands on her tiptoes peaking threw the peep hole wondering whats he doing out there "Nope thats her" he groans ("Why in all heave and hell is she here ...wait") Marco going threw his memories of the day ("Mom said we are going to be getting a foreign exchange student today and a foreign exchange student show up at school today") he looks over his shoulder seeing her watching him when his eyes meet her she put on another smile Marco shuts the peeping hole ("but why does it have to be her") Marco cringes at that thought, he head butts the door "Here go nothing" He opens the door and walks into the house side stepping Star's welcoming hug, he continues walking stopping in front of his parents as soon as he does Star bolts up to him grabbing him by the hand and vigorously shacking it "So why does it have to be her?" Marco said not even trying to hide his aggravation
"We believe with Star around with her energetic and up beat personality she would light up are lives" Mrs. Diaz said trying to help her son except the new member of the house hold
"If that is what you wanted you could of adopted a litter of puppies" Marco pushes her away to get his hand back
Star starry eyed and existed, she grabs his hand again pulling him closer to her "I" she gets closer "LOVE" she gets closer "PUPPIES!" with her wave of wand and a magic flash eight adorable puppies a peer
"Awwwwww" the loving couple chimes together, with laser visions doing a lot of damage
Marco gives Star a glare that freezes her blood in fear of him "They are cute" she scopes one of them as the litter of eight comes running past them
Mr. Diaz lets out a nervous chuckle quickly picking up one "They are cute" he said in Star defense and gets a laser beam in the eye "OW my eye!" he lets out a nervous chuckle again
Marco gives his dad a scary are you kidding me look "Yes, Marco why don't you help Star with her lugged and show her to her room" Mrs. Diaz said changing the subject, Marco lets out a sigh, a roll of the eye and finishes with a disappointed shake of the head
Picking up her lugged, Star runs up the Stairs cheering "Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay" with the litter of eight following her
"Star thats my room, your room is the one furthest down the hall" Marco orders
"Kkkkkkkkkkaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" She cheers with plenty of happy yaps from the puppies
"Do you think this is going to work out dear" Mr. Diaz said nervous as he watches his son disappear up stairs
"Ya of course it will turn out fine, you know as well as I do Marco is always very weary when we take in new foreign exchange studies, give him time he will get use to the newest member of are house hold" Mrs. Diaz reassures her husband
Back with Marco and Star in her new room "And here it is this will be your until its time for you to finally leave"
"Oooooooooookay I can work with this" She looks around her new room, letting out a gasped just realizing some thing she waves her wand "Glitter bomb room expanse" with a bright flash and when the light clears up she 'redecorated' her room "Aww thats much better" she said as she jumps on her bed with her arms open and a proud smile expecting to see an amazed Marco Diaz only problem he isn't even there "Marco?" she hears a shutting of a door, letting out a sigh she falls onto her bed "Man he is difficult, how can I get him tooooooooo" Idea "I know" Star zooms out of her with the happy yappy puppies quickly following her "Hiiiiiiiii yaa" Star tries to kick in Marco's door only to be welcome by a bad decision "OWwwwwwwww" the puppies howl with her "Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow" she cries out grabbing her ankle and rolling around on the floor
The door swings open "What are you doing?"
She stops rolling around looking up at him she lets out a nervous chuckle "Well you see I got the idea it would make you happy if I expands your room too like I did mine"
Marco crouches down making eye contact with her "Did I ask you to expand my room?"
"Well no you didn't , but I" she is interrupted by a slam of his fist into the floor she yelps and tries to scoot away but is quickly dragged underneath him
"Did I ask you to expand my room" he said in a terrifying voice daring you to challenge it
"No" she said shack in the feudal position, the puppies gathered around her trying to comfort her
"Then what would make you think I had I problem with my room the way it is" He said no longer hovering over her hes now sitting
"I thought it would make you happy" she said still in the feudal position
He lets out a sigh, getting off the floor "You are not allowed in my room, do you understand" she nods her head while she whimpers for forgiveness, Marco leaves her lay there for only a few minutes but returns with a medic kit "Butterfly give me the foot you kicked my door with"
She stops shacking and looks at him "What did you call me?"
"What Butterfly is your name isn't it?" Marco said aggravated
"Ya my last name, my first name is Star" She said sounding hurt
"So what, now give me the foot you kicked my door with Butterfly" She looks at him wide eyed, but it saddens quickly as she follows his order, he starts treating not at all paying attention to how Star is feeling "You have a pair of strong feet so the damage wasn't anything severe, but still stay off of them until till dinner time, and that will be ready in two hours" he said picking Star up bridal style bringing her into her room
When he enter her room she looks up at him hoping for a spark of some sort, but still nothing but his dead man's face, he places her on her bed "I'll be back in two hour to check on your foot before we eat" he informs her
She sits on her bed hugging her knees, not even looking at him she nods her head "Thank you" she said having just had the last of her cheer taken from her, when he exits her room she was hoping to see some sort of amazement from him but still gets nothing "I shouldn't have come here" she whispers to her self she flops on her bed as the puppies join her liking her
Two hours come and go quickly a knock comes on her door marking the two hour wait is over "Come in" she said Marco walks into her room "Time to eat?"
He nods his with a grunt "Before you get up let me see your foot" She nods her head letting him tend to her floor
"Hey Marco" she is interrupted
"Its time to eat" he gets off the bed and extends his hands to her
Her shoulders slump and nods in reply as she takes his hand "Thank you" the pair walk out of Star's room and heads to the dinner table to join Mr and Mrs Diaz
"Star is there something wrong" Mrs. Diaz as the blond sat next to her
Before she replied she looks at Marco and shakes her head "No, I guess I'm just tired" she answers with a shrug of the shoulder
Mr and Mrs. Daiz look at their son, with a sad glow in their eyes "All right before we eat let us say grace" Mr. Daiz said as he, his wife and son take hand in hand, Mrs. Daiz takes Star by the the hand Marco extends his hand across the table to Star she a bit hesitated at first but she takes his hand and they say grace and ate the whole time Mr and Mrs Diaz tries to lighten the mood but with no success
Marco is the first to finish his meal "I'm going out for a walk" he said excess him self from the table he places his dirty dishes in the sink leaves the house
Star opens her mouth to say something but when her eyes connected with his she bit her tong, she finishing her meal shortly after Marco left for his walk "Thank you for the meal" she said with a slight bow, as shes about to head up stairs she looks at the door, she takes a deep breath "I'm going to go out for a walk"
Mr. and Mrs. Diaz watch the newest part of there house hold leave giving them the stinging feeling that their about to lose something once again ("Everything will work out in the end, everything will work out in the end") the loving couple repeated in their heads over and over fighting the stinging feeling that only grows as they fight it
Star is running threw the street catching up to Marco as he's heading tours a convenient store
He staring up into space as he enters the parking lot, there it is again the hesitation getting worse and worse as she gets closer to him now with in arm reach away, she takes one deep breath then a second summing what ever courage she could, she reaches for his arm before she could even touch him he stops dead in his tracks and his head whips around this makes her jump out of her skin when his dead eyes met hers "What do you want?" his cold stale voice demanding for an answer
After a few seconds her heart rate finally drops not able to keep eye contact she studies his feet "Look I didn't get a choice to come here" She pauses looking up into his face looking for some sort of emotion, but nothing "Like you didn't get a choice in having to put up with me" She pauses again and again looks into his dead eyes looking for some emotion of some sort in them "...I'll go find another family" she said walking backwards with her two thumbs pointing in the direction putting on the best fake smile she could, shes about to take another step backwards when she feels something placed on her shoulder looking at her shoulder she sees a hand following the arm to the "Marco" a spark of joy reigniting in her
"Who are you" His stale voice demands ruining what she was hopping to happen
("Who is he talking to") she looks behind her seeing a band of monsters
"Princess Star Butterfly I have finally fond you" a cracking voice cheer
"Ludo, how did you know I was here?" she said to the smallest of all the monsters
"You would like to know wouldn't you?" He said as if he's greater then her
"Yes thats why I asked" she said as a madder of fact
Ludo with his chest puffed out "Well you see one of..." Realization finally struck him "Wait a minute I don't have to tell you anything, Get her" Ludo monster part roared in unity one of them charged at her
Star readies her self, but before she could defend her self or the monster could even touch her a flash of red intervene with a nasty upper cut sending the monster flying up the other monster watch in amazement one lets a whistle escapes "You can fight!?" Star cheers happily
Marco looks at her over his shoulder, giving her a shrug spinning around to come face to face with her "The real question here is can you keep up" he coldly said challenging her
Her smile changes into one with determination she runs off with half of the heard of monster chasing after, Marco walks tours them popping his knuckles sending a shiver of fear thru the monster he was approaching "I thought you said she was unguarded" Ludo whines grabbing buff frog by the collar
"I didn't know" He said feeling really stupid right now as one of the monster where sent flying with his head caved into his body
"What thats it don't any of you have any fight in you" Marco said taunting them all the monster try to dog pile him he lets them
"Marco!" Star jumps on to the pile of monster and is about to cast a spell to save him but before she could say the first part the monster pile begins to shack a raises "Whoa" she said struggling to keep her balance
"Really?, really you idiots honestly believe that this would work" The pile of monster begin to spin the whole pile begins to scream Star included Marco tosses them into the air as the gravity pushed them down the pile of monster were met with a powerful kick that scatters all the monster, Marco stands there feeling please with what he just did even if you couldn't tell from his dead man's face, he looks up hearing a female scream getting closer he raises an eye brow as he catches her "What are you doing?"
Star doesn't reply she just stays there in his arms shacking and panting her eyes shoot around as if she just been thru something amazing for the first time in her life "THAT WAS AMAZING!" She tries to hug him, but before she could he throws her
She tries to recover, but the momentum of the throws is to much for her so she hit the ground hard she looks up at him being completely reminded that he doesn't want her letting out a sad sigh she get up wincing from the pain of the throw she dust her self off as she does some monster sneak up on her and try to hold her down, but yet again that can't even touch her with Marco around they get two palm thrust Marco front flips over Star then slams the two monster to the ground. Star is completely surprised by his action but she wasn't given any time to think two more monster charged her she quickly sticks her wand out in front of her "Narwal blast" and with that the fight was over. "You want any more of this Ludo?" Star towering over the little monster in victory
"NO" He said anger in his tone
"Oh hey hold up..." Marco throws his left arm around Star's shoulder, making her tense up "What did you say his name is" Marco ask looking at her with his dead eyes
"Hi hi" she clears her throat "His name is Ludo"
"Ludo?" Marco raises an eyebrow at her in question. She nods her head unable to find any words even thou his voice is cold and life less, his hold is warm so she leans into it wanting to soak up as much as she could. He shrugs his shoulder again in response "If that's how it works, Hey Ludo"
"What!" Ludo barks reaching his limit with the new guy
Marco takes one step back and pulls Star with him "Aren't you forgetting some thing" Marco pointing in the air
Ludo looks up "What could I posssssss ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" He tries to run away from the in coming which happens to be the same monster that Marco sent flying with his upper cut, but couldn't avoid because Marco was standing on his dress and the monster lands on Ludo hard so hard that they both bounce on impact
Marco lets go of Star as she bust up laughing, she tries to hug him one more time, but couldn't because Marco swipes her feet from out from under her. She looks up at him hurt again she let out a sad sigh "right, right" she gets off the ground dusting herself off "I'll go pack my things"
Marco watches her walk away, he lets out a sigh of his own running his hand thru his hair ("What am I doing, why am I going to so this") Marco catch up to her quickly, he throws his right arm around her and stopping as he grabs her left shoulder, doing this surprises her "Butterfly..." she looks at him a little annoyed at what he just called her "Look I don't want you living with me or my parents"
"Oh" she reaches over trying to peel off his right hand from her shoulder
"But I can't leave you alone ether" She looks at him wondering where he was going with this, Marco reaches into his pocket and pulls out a coin "So let take the fifty/fifty chance" Marco holds the silver dollar in front of Star making her focus on the coin "Heads you leave tails you stay alright?"
Star raises an eye brow in question "Really your going to ether let me stay or let me go with nothing more then a flip of a coin" Star ask not really understand thins type of thinking
"Shut up" His dead mans voice snaps at her "You don't have to stay with me and family just so you know" he jabs her right between the eyes with his middle finger "And just so you know I don't want you to live with us, but I can't leave you alone ether, so take it or leave it"
She lets out a defeated sigh "Fine flip your stupid coin already"
He snaps the coin in the air with a ding she watches it go up he watches her ("Why am I doing this") He lets go of her and takes a step back quickly catching it and slaps his down on his left hand using his right hand he blocks the coin from Star point of view
"What is it, What is it let me see" She reaches for it, but before she could get to it he swipes it away and place it in his pocket "It was tails" he said
"How am I supposed to know you didn't let me see the coin" She pouted
He jabs her in between the eyes again "Hey you're staying quit questioning it"
"Ow stop that" She orders
"Well it something I can use to shut you up" she getting angry at him, he rolls his eyes at her "Will you please live my family and I" he said in a gentle tone it's dead like always but gentle none the less
That caught her by surprised her, but a smile crosses her face, with a princess curtsy "I would be happy to live with you and your family" she ruins it "HUGS!" he side steps her and pushes her away
"Come on lets get out of here already" He said not wanting any more of this
"Fine" She storms off
"How about when we get back to my place I make us a before bed snack" He offers
"Yay!" She cheer
The Two make their back to The Daiz family house hold
