"Okay, so I woke up after I was beat into the ground and electrocuted. That seems to be about it." Dylan spoke aloud to herself. For a while she just stood there contemplating something. I need to figure out why I feel so weird here. Maybe it has to do with the lighter gravity here. Never mind that, but instead I should be figuring out where to go. Lets see. I can see the house of the people that recently got in my way in the distance. But I can also feel strong amounts of magic towards the mountains. What to do, what to do. Dylan thought as she contemplated the opportunity to get revenge on the people that attacked her. In fact why doesn't she go over there just to show them who they're dealing with. Dylan, the acolyte of Golan! But she could decide to leave faster by getting to the tome she needed to please her master. Maybe even find Swingly in the process. God dammit! I shouldn't be thinking of him now, not when I hardly even know him. But I did promise not to leave him here. Why do I make these promises.

"Better get going." Dylan said as she began running towards the ice covered mountains. While running she noticed the landscape. The plains seemed like they were a wide expanse. But they seemed like they were all connected by only a few seconds, even though it was taking her forever just to run across them. She also noticed something that confused her. There was a large fire that seemed to just be in a stasis. She couldn't see it very well so she decided not to look at it for too long.

There was one thing that just unnerved her about the landscape. There was a lone mountain that was perfectly visible. It had one large hole in it, she assumed this was the entrance. She was suddenly met with a boulder that she ran into by accident. She was so distracted by this mountain that she didn't notice where she was running to. Upon impact, the boulder was smashed and sent flying as little pebbles now shot in every direction. Why was this mountain so distracting?

It wouldn't hurt just to take a look inside, would it? She thought to herself. As she got closer she could tell an evil presence inhabited the mountain. She kept walking, not thinking about much. Step after step, she now knew why the landscape seemed so close together. It was because it so bland that she couldn't think of anything interesting. Upon reaching her new destination she could tell it was no mountain, but instead a cavern. She didn't take a step inside as she felt she had already wasted enough time. There was only two questions she had about that cave.

Why in the world was that cave filled with green fire? And who the hell would need that much space for just fire?

Marco was calm now. He had calmed down just from hearing the sound of Stars voice. Although he didn't know why he was so calm now. Maybe star calmed him down with a spell of some sort. He didn't know and didn't care.

"Star?" Marco said in a questioning tone.

"Yes?" Star replied.

"Where are we? I don't want to open my eyes yet. It seems very bright." Marco said as he could feel all the light in the room hit his eyelids already creating little spots in his closed vision.

"I wasn't expecting company, did I forget another meeting?" A hoarse voice said. "Sorry about the light, I can turn that down for you." He said as the lights in the room dimmed.

"Hey Luto! How have you been buddy?" Star said in a happy tone, doing her best to seem like nothing was wrong.

"I've been well even though I have been told I can't allow any of my citizens to enter your kingdom walls. We can only wait for the food exports now, which by the way puts you in control of our food source." Luto began to chuckle a little after this. Continuing to chuckle he said. "You do see how this could be a problem with me and my subjects right?"

"Uh, wasn't the only one we did that with the onion rings?" Marco said, now being completely sidetracked.

"I don't think you understand Marco! I really like onion rings!" Luto continued. "But obviously this isn't why you came here. You wouldn't visit me unless we had a meeting, a tea party, or you were in trouble." Luto then glared at star. "This wouldn't happen to be one of those parent problems again would it?"

"Not this time. What I came here for was actually a fortune." Star said. "As you might know your wand has a bit of powers that mine can't do. For example, seeing into the future."

"Really?! I can do that?" Luto said looking at his wand. "I haven't even used this thing for weeks."

Star then shoved a book into Luto's face causing him to shut up. "Listen, all you have to do is do this simple hand motion." Star didn't show Luto that he had a way out of this so he didn't try to protest.

Luto began waving the wand that was nearly the size of his body around in rapid and crooked motions. When he had completed the final step, nothing happened.

"What is this, are you trying to joke with me Star? I thought I had gotten something to fight off all the assassination attempts." Luto then sat down in his underwhelming baby seat sized throne with a gruff.

Star was going to retort when Luto began convulsing. Both Star and Marco were concerned but didn't step forward to stop the event unfolding in front of their eyes. Almost as quickly as the convulsing started, it stopped. Luto was now slowly curling up into a ball.

"Did you see anything big?" Marco asked.

"Yes."

"What was it."

"Somethings very big."

"Things?" Star asked.

"There were three outcomes that I saw. All of them were terrible. But star?" Luto asked.

"Yes Luto?"

"How did you know to make an army? You did it this morning. I remember that from in the future."

Star was hesitant to answer. "That doesn't matter right now, all that matters is that you tell me what you saw."

"In one, you prepared an army. Training them ruthlessly. And nothing happened, so eventually everyone was angry at you. The other kingdoms had caught wind of your large army, and created their own. To stop your kingdoms rise in power, the other kingdoms attacked. And a war was waged and you lost."

"That doesn't sound like something I want to happen. Tell me the others."

"In another, there was this girl that you fought. Your army didn't stand a chance against her. She had quite the evil aura around herself. I didn't see the outcome of that battle, but she was out for your head. As if she wanted to kill you her whole life."

"That would explain the evil I felt try to break in."

"That wasn't all there was in that one. There was also a boy she had with her. The boy seemed to belong to the girl. But he's the one that fought your army. He wiped them out so very fast."

"Is there more to that future?"

"No, but the man didn't have any truly evil aura, if anything he was protecting the girl. But in the third future everyone had died. It was a human, a very tired human. He had only been awake for a few hours if I had to guess. He was covered in fire. But the worst part about him is that he only had rage. There was only rage in his eyes."

"Luto, tell me, when did these occur?" Star asked kneeling down to meet his face.

"The last two will occur in only two weeks. If I were you I wouldn't bother with an army. I wouldn't even worry about trying to protect anyone."

"K, but ju-" Star was cut off.

"Get out! I need to wash by brain out!" Luto continued to yell at them to leave.

Star eventually left the now cowering Luto with Marco by her side.

When they arrived back in her castle. They were in their bedroom. Marco sat down on the side of the bed with star.

"When were you going to tell me about any of this?" Marco asked.

"You just found out didn't you?" Star replied taking off her shoes. Doing this caused Marco to look at the clock to see the time. It was a bit early for bed but it had been a long day.

"Yeah I guess I did. So now that I know we might die in two weeks, we should probably live it up." Marco responded with I chip in his voice.

"Like how?" Star asked kind of confused by the statement.

"A game, a game with stakes." Marco said standing up with a smile.

"Oh really?" Star asked curiously now distracted from all the rest of the day that brought her down.

"Yeah really. Whoever wins after two minutes of playing gets to be on top. But I just need to figure out a game to play with these stakes."

"Well then, I guess I'll start." Star said standing back up, popping her back in the process. She stretched for about ten seconds as Marco watched. "How about. . ." Star began as she then proceeded to push Marco down to the ground. "TAG! You're it!"
