Author's notes: Hey guys! So sorry for the late update! I wanted to post this yesterday but I didn't have time to get on my computer. Well better late then never I guess!

Anyways, thanks for all those awesome reviews! Ever since I started doing this stuff, I think I improved a little bit on making dialogue (still not quite good though).

Well, Enjoy the fic!

Star POV:

I rolled across the ground as I came flying out of the portal. Not my most graceful landing.

"Owie," I said as I rubbed my head. I was in my home dimension, Mewni, in the Darklands. The Darklands were pretty much a place where most of the monsters on Mewni monsters' lived when they weren't trying to attack the castle and cause chaos.

I looked up. In front of me there was a large, brooding castle. It was made of dark grey colored bricks and had spikes jutting out from the roofs. Surrounding it, were wilted trees that looked like the very life were sucked out of them and random skulls were scattered around the dead grass. Seeing this would've made some people more scared of Ludo if he was more... intimidating in person. I mean, no one can really take a 3 foot tall, scrawny chicken monster seriously if he claimed that he was going to take over the world.

I scanned the area and quickly found the entrance to the castle. It was a large, wooden door with stone steps leading up to it. Above it, was a large, menacing stone gargoyle whose eyes seemed to look straight at me.

I got up and strode towards the door in determination. It was about time I paid Ludo a little visit.

I stopped in front of the door and held my wand out, which started to glow. Forget being subtle, I was furious right now. I was going to make Ludo tell me everything I needed to know, whether he liked it or not.

"Unicorn Obliteration Blast!" I yelled as a transparent, white unicorn shaped mass of energy came out of the wand and flew towards the door. It crashed into the door and exploded, completely destroying the door and making a wider entrance into the castle.

I stormed through the entrance to see two surprised looking goblins holding up pikes and looking up at me in surprise.

"What the-"

"Shiny Emerald Snake Strike!" I shouted as I blasted them. Snakes came flying out my wand and slithered around the two minions. They dropped their pikes and screamed as the snakes wrapped around them. The snakes coiled around them and constricted the minions arms against their bodies, making them a very affective substitute for rope. The two minions struggled against the snakes' bind for a second before they gave up and fell to the floor in defeat.

I looked down at them menacingly. "Now tell me... Where is Ludo?"

They both looked frightened. "W-we can't do that! He'll fire us!"

I pointed my wand at them again. "I won't say it again. Tell me where he is or else." I said as energy started pulsating out my wand.

"OK OK! Just don't hurt us!" they stammered.

"H-he's over there!" they both gestured their heads towards another large, wooden door with a gem which was connected to another section of the castle, probably his throne room.

I briskly strode towards the door leaving the two tied up monsters whining as they struggled against the snakes.

I stopped in front of the door and took a deep breath. This was it.

I promptly slammed open the door with my wand glowing expecting a trap. Instead, I saw Ludo screaming at his usual team of monsters as they bandaged themselves up.

"-It was the perfect plan! Maybe if you weren't so-" he stopped as he noticed the door had opened. Ludo and his monsters looked at me in surprise.

An evil smile graced his face. "AH! Star Butterfly!" he cackled. "Come to hand over your wand?! I hope that-"

I interrupted him as I blasted him in the stomach with a very pointy and dense cupcake.

He fell to the floor coughing. "Hey! I didn't get to finish my evil monologue!" he said as he held his fist up at me.

I didn't have time for this. I walked up to him, my wand glowing. His minions started to crawl away from the scene. They were smart enough to realize that they probably be shouldn't be attacking me right now, especially since they had just gotten beaten up by me half an hour ago. The fact that they probably knew I was also extremely pissed probably discouraged them from attacking me even more.

"You IDIOTS!" Ludo shrieked. "GET THAT WAND! SHE'S UNGUARDED!"

His minions just groaned in protest as they continued to bandage themselves, somewhat far away from the scene. I stopped in front of him and looked down at him venomously.

"UGH! You guys are a useless bunch of IDIOTS!" he screeched at them. His monsters winced but continued to ignore his commands.

He looked up and crossed his arms in annoyance. "Anyways, why are YOU here? I'm the one that's supposed to show up to you!"

I was silent for a second or two before I blasted him, making him fall to the floor.

"Ow!" he said rubbing his head. "What was that for?!"

My eye twitched. The least he could do was not to pretend that he didn't know!

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MARCO?!" I screamed at him. When I said his name, I felt my throat constrict unbearably. I knew what kind of trouble he was in and it was agony knowing I couldn't help him at this second. I needed him back safe and sound or I was going to break down crying sooner or later.

"Your little karate boyfriend?! What about him?!" he said.

I blushed a little. Oh how I wish he was.

"H-he's not my boyfriend," I said quietly. This time when I said it, it wasn't in annoyance or anger. It was more of longing. He would probably never forgive if I ever got him back, but at least he wouldn't be in anymore danger if I saved him.

"What's that?! I can't hear you," Ludo said.

I shook my head. Now was not the time to be wishful.

"Don't act like you don't know!" I said accusingly. "Ever since he got hit by that stupid blast, he-he's been acting all evil and even tried to take my wand!"

Ludo's eyes widened in surprise. His face showed that he didn't even know Marco had turned evil. Then again, of course he had to have known! He was the one who hit him with the blast in the first place! He turned around and started to mutter to himself.

"H-hey! Don't ignore me!" I said trying to maintain my authority.

He turned around with an evil smile plastered to his face, but an uneasy look in his eyes.

"And why, pray tell, should I tell you that?" he smirked.

"Maybe if you hand over your wand, I'll consider telling you what you need to know," he said. He held his hand open in front of him as if he expected me to just hand over the wand to him.

This guy was starting to get on my nerves. "Or maybe, you can just tell me, and in return I won't blast you into oblivion!" I yelled as I pointed my wand at him.

Ludo backed away and held his hands up. "FINE FINE! I'LL TELL!" he said.

"Stupid princesses' with all powerful magic wands," he whined angrily.

I smirked and lowered my wand. "That's better," I said as I put my hands on my hips. "Now talk!"

He turned around and headed towards another door in the room. This one had a dark red lock on it. It didn't look like any of the other doors I've seen in this place so far.

"Come with me!" he commanded.

I looked at him suspiciously as he walked towards the door before following him. I still didn't trust him. He's probably leading me right into one of his traps, but right now, he's the best chance I have to getting Marco back.

I remembered to keep 5 feet of following distance between me and him in case he tried to grab my wand. I held the magical object ready at my side in case he tried to pull a fast one.

He stopped in front of the door and took the lock in his hands. He reached into his pocket and pulled a golden key out. He unlocked the lock and took it off before slowly pushing the door open.

He walked inside casually as I looked around the room in awe. Inside, the walls were filled with ancient symbols and pictures of what looked like to be epic battles of heroes battling villains that were holding a black, glowing scepter. What really caught my eye however, was what was in the middle of the room. In the middle was a giant, monstrous statue made of pure gold that was posed on top of a stone base. It somewhat resembled a more terrifying version of Ludo. The thing that was depicted was bigger and much buffer than him, had large horns that pointed skyward, and most importantly, held in its hand, the broken black scepter Ludo was holding during the battle.

"What... is this?" I said in astonishment.

Ludo sighed. "This was my plan to take your wand, and gain something even more powerful, but it seems I've been tricked."

I looked at him and scrunched my eyebrows. "You better start explaining or else," I said at him. This was incredibly confusing me right now. What has Ludo been hiding this whole time?

He seemed to ignore my comment and walk towards the statue. He pressed a button that looked like was somewhere on the statue's foot. Suddenly, a small section of the statue's base opened up to reveal a leather bound book. It looked ancient and mysterious, like a smaller version and shorter version of my magic spell book.

He took the book and held it gently. "The Book of Kaquos," he muttered examined the book. He looked somewhat mesmerized by it.

I looked at him weirdly. "The Book of Kaquos? What the heck is a Kaquos?"

He looked back at me with an awfully, uncharacteristically serious face. I had a bad feeling about this.

"Not what, who. Kaquos, my great and powerful ancestor. The Bane of Heroes, Olden King of the Darklands, original wielder and creator of the wand, and-" he stopped and looked at me straight in the eye. "The one in possession of your little boyfriend right now."

Author's Notes: Ok I probably just left you guys with a bunch of questions which will hopefully be answered in the next chapter but hopefully you guys liked that.

One thing I wanted to talk about by the way, is that while I was typing this, I looked back to chapter one and I was like: "What the heck?". I had this reaction because honestly, this part in the story line was not my intention in the beginning. I realized that after I wrote chapter 2, my original plan was going to be totally boring. (Also there aren't enough evil Marco fanfictions) I was already adding a few different things to the plot from my original plan and I decided: "Hey, why not add this stuff?" My initial plan was to make it incredibly cliche where all it was was Star breaking up with Oskar abruptly and walking up to Marco and saying: "I love you!" before getting together lol. I wasn't even planning on adding Sarah but I guess it just makes for a better story. (Don't worry I haven't forgotten about her)

One thing I liked to add, is that the name Kaquos actually doesn't mean anything. I just spent 7 minutes mixing letters in my head until I got something that sounded fitting for "ancient and evil" although I feel like it could be used for "ancient and good" as well. Oh, and it's pronounced [kay' (Like if you say the letter 'k' out loud) kose (It's like the word rose but with a k instead of an r)]

I'll try to be posting the next chapter super soon. Now that I think about it, this story probably won't be finished before St. Olga's but I sure will try to do that. (Also sorry if this chapter and the last seemed a bit shorter.)

Well that's all. I'll see you all later!
