15 year old Marco Diaz was laying on his bed, staring at the ceiling. He's done this a million times before, ever since Star left. He was back to his old routine, life.
That's... all he could do actually. He recalled when Star lost the spell book, her last strike. She was shipped off to Saint Olga's school. And Marco knew how much Star hated that place.
That made him think.
Does my revolution live on? Marco grinned, imagining Star running through the hallways of Saint Olga's screaming at the top of her lungs, "ITS NOT CRIMINAL TO BE AN INDIVIDUAL!!!" But Marco had felt twinges in his chest, like something was wrong. What?!
He knew Star didn't want a knight in shining armor or something, but he could feel like she needed a hero. He felt like she was asking for one.
Marco fell off the bed when a wall of flames came from the right side of the room. He knew it was Tom, but he was always baffled when that wall of flames light up his bed.
Marco got up from the floor and lay in his bed again, staring as Tom walked out the portal. Tom frowned. Marco ignoring him the past year and a few days wasn't a surprise, but it still upset Tom that his best friend was always down.
And Tom was gonna help in anyway for that. He tapped Marco's shoulder. Marco snapped out his daze and looked at his friend.
"Hey Tom," Marco rasped. He hadn't talked much when Star left, to anyone. Not even his new girlfriend Jackie. She always texted him, asking if he was alright or if they could do something fun. She was just trying to take his mind of Star, but her and Janna's plans never worked. They never gave up though. To this day, his phone was still being blown up.
"Hi Marco, I've come to cheer you up." Tom stated clearly.
Marco felt anger slowly drip into him, making him feel hot. "I... don't... want... anyone's... cheer... up... plan!"
He spat out the words, soaking them in venom. Tom stepped back in surprise, his fire wall snuffing out behind him.
"No 'cheer up' plan, I promise."
"Then... what?" Marco couldn't help but let curiosity leak into his voice.
"You'll see." Tom replied, making a wall of fire behind him. "Come on."
Marco got off the bed, slouched over and he slowly walked to the portal. Leaping through, he saw rock all around him. Marco gasped realizing this was St. Os.
"I heard you made a revolution here," Tom commented when he hopped beside Marco. "Wanna start up another?"
