Hello Friend
By sorrowXdarkness
oooOOOooo
Synopsis: Marco and Star agreed to see other people after Star and Tom became engaged. It was difficult, but both realized that being close as they were could prove fatal to the stability of the kingdom of Mewni and everyone involved with it. Despite living with the Butterflies for some time now, Marco decided it was time to move once more.
Luckily for him, he became good friends with Kelly who was in fact looking for a roommate. How convenient, right?
oooOOOooo
"Higgs?" Spoke Marco as he came across the same Mewni squire from that huge sale in Quest Buy. Her green eyes and orange hair were unmistakable as she bore that face. For a moment, she was surprised to see him there before the anger surfaced.
"What are you doing here?" Higgs asked, lifting her sword off the ground where Marco once stood. Marco was quick to avoid the blow as he held his hands out.
"A friend invited me to spar." Marco replied, before asking a question in return. "What is going on here?"
Higgs' eyes narrowed. "You really have no idea?" She scoffed. "You really are a no-good squire. This is the Battle Colosseum. As in, fighting." Higgs emphasis the 'fighting' as she took her stance.
"Wouldn't someone get hurt? Like for real?" Marco asked. Eyeing the wounded on the floor.
"That's the point!" Higgs swung her sword once more toward Marco as Marco carefully dodged all of her onslaughts. "Stop your squirming and take your hits like a man."
"Well, luckily for me, I don't have to." Marco skillfully twist to avoid a slash down, allowing him entrance to her field. He was more of a real close quarter combat anyway as he forced Higgs back, detaching her from her broadsword and kicking her in the stomach. The blow was enough for her to be pushed back a couple of feet as she returned her sights on Marco.
"Are you even trying?" She argued as she dashed toward him and tried a series of punches followed by a kick. She definitely had the energy, but Marco could easily read her attacks, blocking each one with ease. "Why won't you take me seriously?" She punched toward his face, the source of her anger.
"Why won't you chill out." Marco, instead of blocking her punch, caught her fist. Before they knew it, they were locked in as each one gripped the other's hands.
"I'm not going to give up." Higgs said, tightening her grip over his hands.
"Me neither." Marco replied back as he did the same. It was then that they realized everyone else stopped fighting and were spectating their match.
"Marco?" Kelly finally appeared through the masses.
"Kelly?" Marco asked, earning a reaction from the girl he was fighting.
"Kelly?"
"Higgs?" Kelly replied, looking toward the squire.
"Wait, you know her?" Marco asked Kelly.
"Yeah, we used to go to school together." Kelly replied before looking at the girl in question. "Oh and we're childhood friends."
