Fingers crossed by now we'll be over this whole Corona Virus, as the months start going by. I really do hope so.
Anyways enough talk from me, here's a new chapter to start off the new year itself as I promised, from the last chapter!
Chapter 10
Day's in Morioh Day 9
(Opening Theme: Kyouran Hey Kids Norogami Aragato Op2.)
As of right now Star was in her and Joey's hotel room.
She had just finished getting changed into her rainbow dress. With a sigh of content she plopped down onto the bed. It's now been at least well over two days since the groups run in with Octopus Garden. As usual, Jewel informed Moon of the event and while the queen was growing very concerned with her daughter's safety, she trusted Jewel's word of how they'd make sure she'd be safe. Especially since there were others like the mother and son, both good and others not so much.
Normally she'd be having an adventure of some sort, but since she was technically on vacation Star decided to lay off the day itself. Translation, just do nothing and relax, which almost seemed impossible nowadays depending on what was going on. She also had something on her mind as well.
A knock on the door was heard. With a sigh she got up and looked through the peer hole. It was Jewel.
Unlocking the locks, Star opened up the door. " Morning Jewel. "
" Hi Star, is Joey here? " Her response was Star handing over to a note that the mother read out loud: " Star, went out for a early morning swim in the pool. Be back in a bit. Joey. Oh, that's where he is. "
" What do you need? "
" Eh, I think of my stuff got swapped with his. So I was gonna ask himself. " Jewel replied and began to leave until Star spoke up.
" Hey wait... " Star grabbed her attention. " Can I ask you something? Woman to woman? "
" Sure. " Jewel entered the room and sat down on one of the beds. " So what's on your mind? "
" Um...Well...Okay, last night, I had a weird dream. "
" A dream? " Jewel grew curious upon hearing this while at the same time showing concern since there have been recorded Stands who have dream abilities. " Did it feel wrong? Did you feel in danger? Tell me the truth. "
" No. Not at all. "
" Oh thank goodness. " The lavender haired woman sighed in relief. " Okay, so what was so weird about this dream? "
" It's...Well...Just as I said weird. "
Jewel only smiled at what she said and put a hand on hers for reassurance. " Sweety, it's okay. Just take your time. I'm all ears. "
(Flashback The same Dream Star had last night. )
We now cut to see someone taking Star's hand running through a narrow alleyway and in the distance there was a light up ahead.
" Well, it all started with a boy leading me into a strange and bizarre town. Nothing like I'd ever seen in my whole life.
Upon going through the light, it was revealed to be night time with the very area itself resembling something like that of an amusement park. There as a giant Feriss Wheel with a giant face in the middle of it. One side happy with a smile and another sad with a tear drop. The blonde was still in the strangers grip, and looked up to see people screaming from riding on a roller coaster.
We now see Star and the stranger dancing on top of a odd looking building called Lucky Land Hotel, and above them shoot stars were flying across the sky like crazy. Then the stranger turned out to be Joey who had a happy smile on his face as he continued to dance with Star clearly content with what was happening.
But that boy, turned out to be Jojo. *chuckle* We just danced with no care in the world on top of a hotel.
(End of Flashback.)
" And when I woke up, I could still feel every detail of that dream. " She looked over to Jewel. " What do you think? "
Hearing her story intrigued the older woman a lot and hummed in thought. " How do you feel? "
" Huh? What do you mean? "
" It's clearly obvious, that dream you had has some meaning to it. Do you by any chance...Have some interest in my son? "
" Pfft! What? " Star broke down in a bit of laughter at what she was implying and noticed the look she was giving her. " Oh, oh your serious. I...I don't know..."
" Star, it's perfectly normal... " Jewel reached out and gently grabbed the blonde's hand. " It's an experience we all have growing up. You don't have to hide it... "
Star thought carefully on what to ask next. " Jewel? If you had something on your mind and you really need to get something off your chest, what would you do? "
The lavender haired woman hummed at what she said. " That's a very good question right there. It all depends on what's really bothering you in general. Sometimes there's moments when your to afraid if not, then you'll never get another chance. I know that all to well, like with Joey's father... "
Hearing this made Star's expression soften a bit. " I've actually been meaning to ask, what was Jojo's dad like? "
" Why do you want to know? "
" I..I don't know...Joey's never met him and well, I've never seen a picture of him or anything. And each time he tried talking to you about it, it just seemed...difficult... "
Jewel smiled a bit. " He wasn't exactly people friendly, he'd always be by himself. "
" Why? "
" It always brought up bad memories of something in his past life...I met him at a concert by accident and well, after a while he finally started to talk. Then sometime later on, I found out I was pregnant. "
" Why didn't he stay? "
" It's very complicated Star...He wanted to, but another part of him knew he couldn't. "
Star gasped in shock. " He was married! "
Jewel did her best to hold back her laughter a bit and patted Star's head. " Nope, but I can understand where you get the idea from. "
Star blushed in embarrassment but quickly shook it off. " Wait, so he if he wasn't married, why didn't he stay with you? "
" He had his reasons, even if his own son would hate him for the rest of his life. " She sighed a bit. " I wish he would, but I'm actually perfectly fine with it. "
" What? Why? Don't you want to see him again? "
" I do...But it's easier on both of us if we didn't see each other again. " Star was stunned to hear this from her roommates mother, someone else she viewed as close family had a very complicated back story. Sure she's read stories about it before, but hearing it from a genuine kind person like her, it almost seemed un real. Jewel would've most defiantly the lucky man who'd love her very happy. While she wanted to know more, Star didn't need to be a genius to understand that talking about her former lover was a very touchy subject.
Jewel looked over to her and smiled. " Oh, don't worry about me. I'm actually fine, I got a kind yet hard headed son out of it. " She then chuckled gaining a mischievous grin that took Star by surprise since she'd never seen her make that face before. " And you didn't hear this from me, but I'm pretty sure you've made a huge impact in his life. "
" How? "
" Well, for one, he used to be well, always in a protective shell. But ever since you showed, up, he's not in there anymore. In only just mere months alone, he's changed completely. " She leaned to her ear. " Also, don't wait to long okay? " Hearing this left Star with an expression that made her eyes go wide as dinner plates.
Jewel chuckled a bit seeing her reaction and walked out the door leaving her alone.
Now that Star was alone again she flopped back on the bed still holding the expression. " What just happened? " Her line of thought was cut short when she heard a tearing sound. Quickly Star brought out her wand ready to fight whoever would emerge and someone did.
It was Pony Head who was crying rainbow tears. Star didn't expect her childhood friend to come to earth out of the blue and much less come crying her heart out. Star set her wand aside. " Uh...Pony Head? " The floating unicorn head turns to her and continues crying. " What's wrong? " She tries calming herself down but continued crying out rainbows darting over to the bed with Star following her. " Pony...use your words. "
" What's going on? " Joey turns to see Adam coming in with Adam, Matthew and Janna in tow. " Oh, it's just Pony Head. "
" Uh is that like Star's friend or something? " Adam asked a bit weirded out by the floating heads sudden appearance who was literally crying rainbows.
" Yeah, and yes she's got no body. Believe me, you get used to it after a while. " Joey walked up next to Star and looked over at her. " So what she here for now? Did she run out of rainbow toothpaste again? Because we don't have any right now. "
" Yeah probably. " Star answered and looked back to her friend who was beginning to calm down. " Whatever it is, we'll go through it together.. "
" Okay, I'll tell you...I'm ready to reveal... " She whips her head around making the wet eyeliner fly off and reopened them with sparkles in her eyes that released more eyeliner. " The Bounce Lounge...is closing. " On que Star begins wailing out massive streams of tears causing the heart marks on her cheeks to pop, the vase in the room shatter and maybe possibly cracking all the glass in the whole entire hotel. Heck even, the peoples glasses cracked making them all confused.
Everyone aside from Jojo covered their ears while he sighed doing his best to try and comfort her while she was sobbing and coughing, her tears getting his shirt wet, but he was fine with it. " The Bounce Lounge is cl-cl-closing?! "
" No! No! " Pony started crying out rainbow tears.
" Uh... " Adam didn't know how to respond to this.
" What's going on? " Matthew inquired.
" It's there favorite night club, the Bounce Lounge. It's going out of business. " The black spiked haired teen answered making their crying even worse.
" Hey, hey...hey... " He said rubbing the back of Star's head while holding Pony Head because he was caught right in the middle of things. " Why don't we check it out ourselves? It might not even be closing. I mean, since is Pony Head been right about anything? " Star gasped and got off Jojo leaving a stream of snot and tears much to disgust but he kept a strong face for her sake.
" Oh yeah... "
Matthew leaned over to Adam and whispered. " Wow...He handled that really well...I'm surprised... "
" Feelings mutual. "
" Geez, how dense are you guys? " Janna inquired with a raised eyebrow.
We now switch to the said night club and from the looks of things nobody's been there for a while. The whole place was completely trashed looking abandoned. There was also a floating sign on a cloud reading: Bounce Lounge is Closing-Milly Sparkles.
" Yeesh...Okay, it's closing. " Joey said realizing that Pony Head was right for once standing next to Star who was trying to absorb what was happening.
" I just...I can't believe it... "
" Believe it... " All the sudden a spot light piercing through the clouds shined down upon them with the sound of dance music being heard. What came down was some sort of purple fairy completely decked out in dance clothing wearing a set of shades and hiding her face behind a peacock feather fan.
Upon seeing this person Pony and Star gasped. " Oh my goodness... "
" It's Milly Sparkles... " Star then gets on her knees and bows down as if she was royalty. " My liege...Guys... " She drags Jojo down to do the same while the rest shrug their shoulders and do the same. " This is the owner of the Bounce Lounge. "
" The Bounce Lounge is indeed closing. " Milly confirmed there fears. " The party is over. "
" But why Milly? " Star questioned looking up to her in confusion.
" Because business has been slow... " She said motioning to the rest of the area like the dance floor that had a crow cawing and a rusted robot DJ. " Nobody want's to party here anymore. Farewell loyal partyers, and may the bounce lounge be with you always... " With those words said she floated back in the clouds making the light stop shining.
" Wow...Look at this... " We turn to see Adam, Janna and Matthew over at a photo wall that was covered with photo lines from the photo booth. The rest of the group came over.
" You girls defiantly partied here a lot. " Matt commented.
" Hey, is that you two? " Joey asked pointing to a row of photo's showing a much younger Star with Pony Head.
" It is. Pony look! "
" It's us! " They looked straight to a photo showing them when they were little, most likely when they first started partying there.
" Ooooh...Besties..." Star's heart was warmed by the memories.
" Hmm...And there's our junior prom night... " They both winced upon seeing those photo's. Because they both had braces and were breaking out a bit.
" Whoa...you look way different back then and you had braces? " Joey turned to Star who chuckled nervously.
" I know that feeling...I've been there. And I'm glad that's over with. " Janna commented.
" Yeah...I'm still trying to forget that. " Star replied ack.
" OMG! That is a classic! " They all look to where Pony was looking. It was a photo showing Star and Pony along with Kelly, Tad, some sort of dolphin and a some sort piece of cloth wearing headphones and a keyboard scarf. " That is the old Bounce Crew girl! "
" We used to rule this place. "
" No kidding? " Joey questioned sounding actually interested.
" Yeah, nobody partied harder then we did. " Pony replied to Jojo's question with pride before gaining a sad face with her friend.
" Man...Where did the time go? " Star questioned. " We haven't been here in so, long I can't help but think this is our fault. "
" And now a part of our life is gone forever. " Pony said on the verge of crying once again until Star gained a look and took the phot down.
" Unless...We get the old bounce crew back togetheeeer! " She sang and Pony instantly liked that idea.
" Oooohhhh giiiirl! "
" Whoa, whoa, are we seriously doing this? " Matthew asked. " You want to do a Blue's Brother's stunt and save this place? "
" Uh...yeah? " Star replied.
" Okay, I'm in. " The blonde said before Joey cleared his throat quickly taking charge.
" Alright, everyone, listen up! " He said getting their attention. " Since were doing this, we might as well do it right. Me, Star and Pony will get their crew back together, while you guys try and clean the place up. Sound good? "
" As stupid as this might be, why not? " Adam admitted and instantly brought out Electric Avenue and tossed Janna a broom.
She shrugged her shoulders. " Eh, I got nothing else better to do anyways. " The female stand user started sweeping. " But just for the record, this better be a good party. "
There first objective was Kelly and Tad and they already figured where they would be at. The same desert dimension where they first met them to try and get Goblin Dogs.
In fact, they were right on the money, except there was one problem. They found her up against the goblin dog truck, half eaten goblin dogs were all around her. She was very depressed and the top part of her hair was missing.
" Hey Kelly...Where's Tad? " Star asked in a concerned tone.
" Tad and I broke up... " She answered sadly and opened up her hair revealing a bald spot. " There's a bald spot on where my heart used to be... " She slumped down to the side and proceeded to eat the remains of a goblin dog.
" Oh, that's like real sad. " Pony Head began. " In worse news, they're closing the Bounce Lounge! "
Star kneeled down next to her. " And were getting the crew back together to save it. "
Kelly stood up and spat out the hot dog. " Why not? I can be disappointed anywhere. "
" Alright, let's go Kelly! " Star said happily bringing her up to her feet.
" Okay, that's three, who's next? " Joey asked as Star stared intensely at the photo at a humanoid doplhin. " Johnny Blowhole, the party bear extraordinaire. "
We now change scenes to a dimension called the Sea Rabbit Dimension where all the rabbits were pirates. Joey, Star, Pony Head & Kelly were on a ship where the said dolphin was mopping the deck. serving as waiter on the ship serving the rabbits drinks.
" I don't know guys... " Johnny said as a rabbit clapped his hands making Johnny bring him a glass of carrot juice. " I've gotta a lot of partying to do here. "
" Really? " Joey raised an eyebrow in confusion. " Cleaning the deck and serving drinks counts as partying? If it is, then that's just sad. "
" What he said. " Pony Head agreed. " And you look like your not the one partying. "
" No, I'm pretty sure this is partying. " Johnny said as a glass was thrown at him spilling some juice and broke upon landing. The ships captain came up to him.
" When your done grab your mop. " He points to a filthy looking toilet that looked like it hadn't been cleaned in years. " That commode could use some heavy duty partying. "
Both Star and Pony gasped in shock.
" He's forgotten what partying is! " The blonde said in realization. " There using you Johnny! "
" Yeah! Ditch these nerds and you need to come with us. "
" Sorry, matties, Johnny stays with me- " The captian was cut off after Neon Galaxy knocked him unconscious and did the same to his crew within seconds.
" So, what's it gonna be? " The black spiked haired teen asked. " You gonna work on this pirate ship or you are you not the party bear extraordinaire I've heard about? "
" This is my life now. I'm not cut out for partying anymore anyways. " The dolphin said.
" I guess your right Jojo. He's lost his partying powers. " Star said and looked away with a smirk. " You probably never had them in the first place. "
" Ooooh! You lost them Johnny Blowhole! " Pony Head cried out and started circling around him. " That's weak? "
" You guys are wrong okay? I have my moments. " The dolphin protested.
Both roommates exchanged a glance with one another. " Oh really? Then prove it. "
" Yeah, prove it. We dare you to save the Bounce Lounge. "
Johnny threw his tray into the water. " I dare you to stop me! " He took off his pirate bandanna and ripped off his shirt laughing away.
" Whoo! Johnny's back! " Star cheered away.
The next dimension they arrived in seemed to be like a goth place. There was a club called Null. Joey, Star and Pony Head entered inside.
" So who are we looking for now? "
" Headphones Johnes & Lady Scraffs-a-Loff. " Pony Head anwsered as they entered the club that was absolutely pitch quiet.
" Is it this thing right here? " Joey pinted to the top corner showing a furry purple creature wearing red headphones and a piano-themed scarf with its eyes closed.
" Yeah. " Star replied and got excited. " Oh, there they are! " The same creature on the photo was levitating in the air.
" Headphones Johnes & Lady Scraffs-a-Loff? " Pony tried getting it's attention before yelling. " Yo wake up! "
The headphones became alive and pulled out the jack out of it's mouth. " What do you want? " The headphones asked with the scarf coming to life sounding a be a she. " And make it quick, you're harshing the cool. "
' Okay, this was unexpected... ' Joey told himself mentally since he thought the creature would be alive, not it's accessories.
Star informed them what was going on. " There closing, the Bounce Lounge. "
" Good. " Headphones Johnes said.
" Yeah, that place hasn't been cool in month's. " Scarfs-a-Loff added.
" We were getting the crew back together to save it. " Pony Head said.
" This is a way cooler place to party. " The headphones said.
" This is partying? " Star wanted him to repeat what he just said.
" Yeah, look how cool we look. " They turned around to see a whole bunch of beings with headphones on there heads.
" Yeesh, this is more straight out the a scene from a horror movie. " Joey commented.
Star looked over to Pony Head narrowing her eyes. " You thinking what I'm thinking? "
" Uh-huh. " She replied back and fired off her horn. Which turned out to be a big mistake and caused a fire to the whole place.
" Way to go horse for brains! " Jojo commented sarcastically while Star was giving her friend the look along with their other friends.
" What? I thought that was what your were thinking!? "
With the Bounce Crew reassembled they returned to the Bounce Lounge, and the whole place was much more cleaner then it looked before. " Hey, nice job guys. " Joey commented as they entered the place.
" Well, it wasn't easy. " Matthew commented wiping some sweat off his brow.
" What he said. " Adam added. " But we didn't have to worry about trash bags, since were actually on a cloud. "
" Aside from nearly falling to our deaths. " Janna said in her usual casual tone.
" Please don't remind me... " Matt said while shivering a bit not realizing Millie had descended back down to them.
" I appreciate you cleaning up. " Millie said sounding a bit pleased.
Star got excited grabbing her attention. " Ah, Milly! Milly, Milly, Milly! The Bounce Crew is back together! "
The fair lowered down her sunglasses that had another pair underneath looking towards the ones the group brought back.
" What's up Mills? " Johnny greeted.
" I'm afraid that's not enough. " Mille said putting her front shades back on. " The only thing to save the lounge is to pay off the mortgage. And I can't do that with only, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. Nine customers. "
" How much do you owe? " Star asked.
" Like a bajillion dollars. " Millie replied.
" That's a lot of bacon. " Pony commented.
" Is that even a real number? " Adam asked in confusion looking over to Matt shrugged his shoulders.
" Let it go darlings, sometimes things just end. And there's nothing we can do and accept it. " She went back to the clouds. " So goodbye, thank you for your patronage. "
Star sighed sadly with Joey putting a hand on her shoulder for comfort.
" Hey, guys, I'm not trying to ruin the mood and everything... " Adam spoke up. " But it's kind of no wonder the place lost so much money. This place is well...pretty much a dump. "
" It always looked like this. " Star said. " Our partying gave the Bounce Lounge it's life. And our partying is gonna save it. "
" Save it? " Kelly was still in her mood. " What? "
" No, no, no, she's right. " Pony understood where Star was going with this. " The Bounce Lounge can't go down with the Bounce Crew around. "
" Hit it, Pony! "
Pony Head picks up shutter shades and puts them on the robot DJ. The robot powers on and starts playing electronic dance music.
" Let's get this party started! " Pony yelled out as light reflects off of the disco ball. She and Pony Head start dancing.
" Come on, Bounce Crew, what are you waiting for!? " Johnny Blowhole, Headphone Jones, and Lady Scarfs-a-Lot join Star and Pony Head on the dance floor.
While they were dancing, Joey was manning the Bounce Lounge's admission booth. A short goblin-like creature with fly's buzzing over his head, wearing pink pumps walks into the Lounge. " Hey, I heard some dance music. Is there a party in here? "
" Actually, yes! " Joey replied. " Admission is 25 dollars. "
" Oh, no, I just need to use your bathroom. " He walked away making Joey groan as Star appeared right next to him.
" How many is that? " She asked.
" Still the same. "
" Looks like we need to dance harder! " Star and the Bounce Crew dance more energetically, from the sidelines Matthew, Adam and Janna watched this go on.
" Hey, what are waiting for? " Adam asked grabbing their attention. " Screw whatever someone thinks, let's get out there! "
" As much as I know this is stupid, I don't care. " Matt said blankly before bursting out. " Let's shake what are our mommas gave us! "
" That was really stupid! " Janna commented laughing a bit as they joined in on the fun busting a few moves.
Minutes later, a faun girl enters the Bounce Lounge with a short creature covered in green hair and hands money to Jojo. " Let's get our groove on! " The faun girl and green-haired creature join the Bounce Crew on the dance floor and start dancing.
Star gasped under her breath. " It's working! "
" C'mon everyone! " Jojo cried out. " I know you all can do better then that! " The whole crowd cheered upon hearing those words as a grasshopper came out and joined in.
" Jojo's right! Let's move with the groove! " Star backed him up.
" Yes! " Her best friend on Mewni agreed and continued to dance away
More creatures enter the Bounce Lounge to join in, and Joey collects their admission fees in a big sack. Star spooked him as she pooked her head out of the sack.
" How many is that now? "
Joey quickly used Neon Galaxy to count the money up. " Were barely making a dent! We need more! "
Star looked over to the dance floor. " Harder! "
The dance floor fills with more people. " You heard Star! Dance harder! " Johnny cried out.
" That's what I'm talking about! " Pony Head was totally in tuned with the music.
Star turned to him. " Now? "
" We're gonna need a lot more partiers. " Joey replied.
Star grabbed Joey's collar. " You are so right! " With a smile she dragged him by pushes him out onto the dance floor. " Get in there, Jojo! Show off those fancy dance moves you got! " With a shrug Joey started dancing, alongside Star with out a care in the world.
" How's this!? "
" Yeah! Right on! " Star gave him two thumbs up.
At the DJ Robot, Headphone Johnes spoke out. " This goes out to all you desert dimensioners out there! "
In the desert dimension, several people are line to buy Goblin Dogs. They and the Goblin Dog truck suddenly rise into the air. They arrive at the Bounce Lounge and throw more money at Joey. The dance floor is now completely packed.
Headphone Johnes motioned to the seabunnies pirate ship falling down a a feet away from them. " How about them seabunnies?! " Nearby Roy fires T-shirts at the crowd from a T-shirt cannon.
Scarfs-a-Lot chimed in. " Let's hear it from the Null! " The patrons from the Null appear and hang down from the Bounce Lounge's ceiling dancing to the music.
" We still need more! " Joey yelled out as he continued to dance along with Star underneath a cage that contained Pony Head dancing.
" Johnny, use your blow hole! " The dolphin spun around to his backside sprays the crowd with bubbles from his blowhole. Three bug-like girls enter the Bounce Lounge covered in bubbles.
From nearby, Matt was dancing alongside Janna while Adam was doing some major break dancing on his own.
" Hey, Adam! What's say we add a bit more lighting to the show!? " Matt questioned his friend who nodded in agreement and got up continuing to dance a bit. He then began to whistle making Eletric Avenue appear busting out a few moves and zipped over the dance floor making the bubble's glisten with it's light. Nearby, Janna made Pink Floyd appear shooting up it's crystals adding in some fire works as they exploded up into the air.
As for Matt T Rex appeared right behind him, and much to everyone's surprise it began to dance alongside him as well.
In the middle of the dance floor Joey and Star were in complete control of it, and thing's got even more interesting as Neon Galaxy came fourth. The stand began to mimic their movements, all while making it's body glow adding in a cool special effect and the crowd was absolutely loving it.
From the side, Joey notices more partiers coming in leaving in their admissions. Seeing this he rushes over to collects even more money in the sacks. Star appears before him hanging upside-down. " Now? "
Joey quickly counted it out. " We need one more! "
" One more? " Star couldn't believe what she was hearing. " But that's everyone. " Three bills of money fall into a sack. She and Joey look up to see it was Kelly's x boyfriend.
" Tad? " They weren't expecting to see him here.
" Oh, hey, guys. Where's my girl? " They both pointed over to Kelly dancing right near Adam who stopped upon seeing him.
" Tad? What are you doing here? "
" Don't you remember baby? This is the first place we broke up. " He takes her hands. " Wanna get back together? "
" Yeeeeaaaah! " For some odd reason Kelly's eyes flashed in multiple colors. Slowly, Tad plants himself on top of Kelly's head, and they are bathed in psychedelic colors.
From the sidelines Adam sighed a bit and was comforted by Matt since this always seemed to happen to his friend most of the time.
Elsewhere at the dance floor, Joey and Star carry the sacks of money over to Milly Sparkles. " Did we make enough? "
Milly counted the contents. " One, three, fifty, eleventy-thirty... Hmm. Nope. We're short 650. "
" But I thought we had— " Star was cut short after Joey adds in the remaining amount of money that was needed.
With a smirk he dusted off his hands. " Does that suffice? " The crowd cheered while Star hugged her best friend.
" Yes! We did it! The Bounce Lounge lives forever! "She said twirling him around a bit who laughed a bit. " Now let's party! "
" Star, wait. " Milly grabbed her attention and let go of Joey. " Thank you, all of you, for what you've done. " She said in a sincere tone and straightened herself up on the cloud. " But I've been partying for over 5,000 years. " Milly removes her sunglasses and moves her feathered fan away to reveal her very wrinkled face. The crowd gasped and cried of shock.
" Whoa! " Matt, Adam and Janna both recoil upon seeing this.
" It was never about the mortgage. " Milly's floating lounge chair transforms into a motor scooter. " I'm closing the lounge because I just really need to stop partying. Like, right now. "
Pony Head spoke up. Aww! If this is the last night of the Bounce Lounge, let's make it the best night ever! " While the crowd was game for the idea Milly disagreed.
" No! The party is over. " The disco ball lowers from the ceiling and turns into a wrecking ball nearly hitting, Star and Joey if they didn't back up a bit. It then starts demolishing the Bounce Lounge. Those who were in it's way screamed as they ran away for cover.
Star couldn't believe what she was seeing. " But we saved the Lounge. "
" Nothing lasts forever, princess. " Milly said before smiling. " But thank you for the party. " Milly puts her sunglasses back on and rides her motor scooter into the clouds.
A portal tears open into Joey and Star's hotel room. The princess sighed slumping onto a bed along with Joey.
" The Bounce Lounge is gone... "
" And we did all that work for nothing too... " Johnny made a dolphin noise going onto the floor while the others all took different spots.
" At least I have you, piece of gum I scrapped off a table to remember it by. " Star said before kissing it.
" Yeah, I don't think you'll need that. " Joey said smacking it away. With a gasp of surprise, Joey passed her a few stands of photos. The ones with her and Pony Head growing up, and the set of when her roommate went to the Bounce Lounge for the first time. " It might have been cut short, but I still had fun. That's what counts right? "
Her response was a firm hug that he returned back.
" Ah...Good for you guys... " Pony Head commented from the sidelines grabbing their attention. " All I got was this photo booth! " She motioned to the very same photo booth that was inside the lounge much to everyone's surprise.
They all cheered away and went inside taking a few photo's, the most noticeable one was the entire group all together in a photo of the Bounce Crew with it's newest additions.
Later on after getting the photo booth into Star's room back at Echo Creek, the gang made their goodbye's with the Bounce Crew. At night, Joey and Star had just got done finished eating some ice cream while watching a movie. Both were in there pajama's laying down in their individual beds.
Star sighed in content laying her head back down on the pillow she was using. " Another, good day ending with a relaxing evening. "
" Yeah, it has been one heck of a fun day indeed. " Joey agreed. " It's still kind of sad that, all that hard work we put into the Bounce Lounge was for nothing though... "
" It was... " Star agreed with a sad smile. " But, at least we managed to have one last party. "
" That we did. " Joey then chuckled.
" What? "
" You know, it was right there where it all started to change...The Bounce Lounge...That was the first dimension I ever went to with you, remember? "
" Oh my gosh, you're absolutely right, I totally forgot about that. " The blonde facepalmed herself a bit in realization. " The same night Pony, got sent to...Well you know... "
" I do...So thank you Star. "
She looked over to him on confusion. " For what? "
He gave her a smile in return. " Giving me a fun day that'll I remember for the rest of my life. " He then yawned stretching out his arms. " Well, I'm gonna turn in the for night. See you in the morning. " With those words said Joey got himself tucked in and slowly drifted off to sleep.
As for Star she smiled, happy to know that her friend had fun and a very good memory to boot. While she started to drift to sleep, she recalled Jewel's words, making her feel something deep within her heart, through out the rest of the night.

Hey everyone, just a heads up, tomorrow I'm gonna put up my 'Special Project'. I know what I said, that I'd put it up after finishing Kipo. I know that's what I said, but geez, I just don't think I can keep holding off on it any longer.
As for what it'll be, well, trust me you'll be surprised.

I will let you know pretty soon, and no worries. Plus again, they should've put his name out there in the beginning. And dude, you don't need to put the same review on two stories, that's a bit much. I hear you loud and clear.
