"Okay so are you sure about teaching Star how to ride a bike?" Uneasily, I furrow my brow as my grip tightens on Star's dimensional scissors as Marco tells me his plan to teach Star how to ride a bike.

"It'll be fine besides we can't always give her a lift. I mean I've got karate and you've got debate club and with you skate boarding with Jackie…" Marco explains to me as I hum, he does have a point I mean I remember the last time I brought Star to debate society. It didn't end well then again it was the feminist debate on whether women are still being persecuted by it. Maybe I was hoping for Star to think and learn of earth culture to learn of earth's similar situation to Mewni and to learn of the harsh histories that took place in order for Star to know what to avoid, to not allow history to repeat itself but…Grimacing, I remember Star roaring at the debate club as I had walked out. Star having been banned due to speaking over others and leading to many and including myself ears to run ruby red rivers.

"I know that but knowing Star this isn't going to end well…" Worried, I sigh shaking my head.

"It'll be fine. Trust me." Gently, Marco smiles at me placing his hand on my shoulder making me exhale, my brow furrowed conflicted.

"Fine if that's what you want I'm outta here." Simply, I shrug stepping back as I hear the rip of scissors as I open the portal.

"Where are you going?" Curious, Marco questions me.

"Mike and Tom promised to teach me how to fight." Casually, I shrug.

"But you can fight…" Confused, Marco furrows his brow.

"Marco I was kidnapped and it's my fault the wand became the way it is. I need to get stronger to make sure I'm never that helpless again." Sternly, I tell him how it is, feeling my hands bawl up into a pair of shaking quivering fists, fuming, disgusted by my helpless.

"Ash you're not helpless…" Gently, Marco tells me making me roll my eyes, you weren't the one kidnapped.

"You may think so, but I do. I'll see you." Curtly, I brush him off making him sigh.

"Alright good luck." Weakly, he smiles at me.

"Thanks…Right here I gooooooo….urgh…where…where am I? It's freezing! This is definitely not…Ah!" Lost, I blink flabbergasted as instead of the boiling bright sun and hot heats of lava. I am greeted by the harsh icy winds of winter in some sort of forest, making my brow furrowed as I cross my arms, my body shivering from the icy cold temperature of this unknown terrain. Curious, my ears perk up at the crisp crinkle of flames. Curious, I follow the sense of warmth craving it only for my eyes to widen at the recognizable bird boy.

"Ludo?" Surprised, I raise a brow at the male with a beard wearing some crisp corn packet as robes, his yellows looking up surprised to meet my own as I furrow my brow at the group, eating fish.

"Well, well if it isn't…what's your name?" Smugly, Ludo begins only to stumble staring at me confused as I sigh.

"Um Ash." I answer.

"Ash thanks to you I lost my castle!" Angrily, he glares at me.

"Technically that was…" I begin.

"Get her!" Screaming, Ludo roars making my yellow dilate in horror. I scream, rushing through the icy cold terrain of this hellscape, my fingertips shaking quivering until my eyes widen as I gasp when my shuddering fingertips clatter down on the snow, no! I reach out for it only as I do to find Ludo right on my tail making my body dart over, my heart heavy as next thing I know, my vison becomes blurry as I all I see a blur of brown as I slip gasping when my vision goes blurry.

Softly, the snow descends down as echoing, Ludo's growing cackle reaches my ears ringing a white noise alongside his goons' approach, looming over me. Ludo tauntingly wielding a pair of familiar scissors making me groan, grimacing at my aching temple only then as Ludo cackles, his spider looms over raising one of it's claws to strike at me. The three freeze, stopping at the heavy crunch as quickly, they flee leaving me alone to deal with the monster great, I'm dead just…

Weakly, I groan as I reach out my had rattling trembling trying to crawl away to hide only then to fall limp. The last thing I feel is a pair of muscular, rough, scaly arms coil around my form as I am taken away into the dark depths of the snowy terrain…

Chirpily, the birds tweet as a young girl lying in the mud of the swamp beams brightly playing in the dark dirty depths of the water below her, playing happily, her chubby arms reaching out to the swamp water giggling, dirt clinging all over her teeny tiny form. She plays along in the dark dirt, her body hidden within the dark damp depths of the swamp water as she perks up at the sound of footsteps, swimming inside.

"Mama!" Happily, the bright yellows of the young girl brighten at the sight of the lean figure, her long ruby red locks wild, a lone strand of a braid dangling down. Gently, she knees down next to the young girl.

"What is it sweetie?" Tenderly, she questions her little one, her voice filled to the brim with love, joy and kindness as she reaches out, her fingertips brushing against her cheek who happily leans in, happy to see the older woman.

"Hugs!" Pouting, she whines arms outstretched earning a small chuckle from the woman, ignoring the distant echo of warning from the blurry figure, their voice distorted as she kneels down picking up the mud stained child, eagerly embracing her unfazed by the dirt staining her military attire.

"Mama where's daddy? I miss daddy, did I…did I do something wrong?" Meekly, the small voice calls out making the older woman freeze from her words.

"Sweetie, you did nothing wrong, you could never do anything wrong. Never ever think that," Sternly, she tells her little girl, surprising her as she dumbly nods, confused by the older woman's voice but nods, nevertheless.

"But…why isn't he back? I miss him, I miss daddy! I want daddy!" Sniffling, the young girl whimpers tears cascading down her trembling sobbing voice breaking the young woman's heart as she clutches onto the small bud tightly to her chest.

"I know sweetheart, I know but…he's…I'm sorry I'm so sorry I love you. I love you so much…"
