Marco's POV

It had been over a week since Star had gone missing. Queen Moon had occasionally called to give me updates,but so far there was no trace of her. I felt so helpless here on earth, unable to do anything. School without her had been disheartening. Everything reminded me of her. My friends, Ferguson, Alfonzo, Janna and even Jackie had attempted to cheer me up, but to no avail. I sat there lost in thought, until a tapping on my shoulder brought me back to reality.

"What is it Janna?", I asked her, a bit annoyed.

"You just got called into the principles office", she replied, not taking offense at my response. Everyone knew how much Star's disappearance had affected me.

I went over,a bit confused as to why I had been called. I was the schools 'safe kid', the one who never really did anything.

Principal Skeeves stood next to a girl I hadn't seen before. She had shoulder length jet black hair and tanned skin. She wore a pair of jeans and a white tee.

"Marco Diaz, I want you to meet our new student Stella Mari, she has just transferred over from New York", He said

"It's nice to meet you Marco, I hope you won't have a problem with being my guide for the day", she said with a smile.

"Nice to meet you too Stella", I replied with a forced smile, not trying to think of how much this was similar to the first time I had met Star.

"What's wrong Marco, you don't seem very happy. Am I bothering you?", Stella asked as at walked down the hallway, catching me off guard.

"No I...", I started, before deciding it was best to tell the truth. "My friend Star went missing last week, I'm just worried about her", I admitted.

"Come on, let's go watch a movie. You obviously need to get your mind off things", she said, giving me a big smile

"Are you sure you want to leave school right now? this is your first day of school after all. ", I asked her, a bit surprised at her offer.

"It's no big deal, come on. It's my treat", she said, dragging me off.

Truth to be said, it was nice to take a break from things, especially since me worrying wasn't doing any good. We watched a horror movie at the local mall, the jump scares didn't really scare me, but Stella almost jumped onto me every time in fright.

During the interval Stella went out to get some popcorn. A minute later i decided to go out as well, as I needed to use the washroom. Outside I was confronted by the sight of Stella surrounded by several giant spiders. I felt my vision go red with anger. Next I remember I was surrounded by dead spiders, with Stella walking up to me.

Stella's POV

I saw Marco to through the spiders with anger that I had not expected in him. "Isn't it enough that you took away Star, now you want to hurt my friend too", he has roared out. He had taken them out with perfectly timed attacks at pressure points. His fighting skills had me in awe.

Marco only stopped when each and every one of them was gone, and his face slowly returned to normal. I went over to him, and suprised even myself by pulling him into a hug. "It's all right Marco, I'm safe", I said, rubbing his back. I wasn't really a hugging person, but somehow, this felt just right.

"I think we should go home now", he said.

Understanding that he wanted to be alone, I said,"I'll drop you off, your house is on my way. We'll meet again tomorrow"

We walked back home silently, and i waved him goodbye, Before going to my house which was right next door.

I entered the empty house and went over to the large screen on the wall, switching it on.

"Agent Stella, what is the situation?", an unknown voice said.

"I am going to need backup,He killed the spiders. I had told those fools not to come around when the boy was around", I replied.

"Very well, but keep in mind that you might have to finish the job on the own"

"Yes sir, I am well aware of the possibility", I said and bowed, before switching off the screen. Now to come up with a plan, to finish off the boy once and for all.

Star vs the forces of evil does not belong me, neither do the characters, but Stella is OC. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, suggestions are appreciated.

Nicholas Friar- I made the first chapter short as I was just toying around with a shower thought. However I plan on making this and any further stories in this series short.
