"Awwwe, is the little Baby ready to go out today? Is he, is he?" The cooing voice of the youngest Butterfly echoed the walls of the castle. It had been exactly two days since the whole monster attack, and Star did not once leave the little boy's side. The little six-year-old was really attached to the baby boy, who likewise seemed to enjoy her company. She would be seen just smothering the boy with hugs, kisses, tickles and pure affection. She absolutely refused to let the baby down. She swore to herself that she would never let him go.

"Ba, ba." The nearly 1 year old spat out as he reached out for the blonde headed princess. He didn't seem to be bothered by the girl in any way, nor by her parents, the various guards surrounding the palace, or by the all too new surroundings. The boy didn't recall much, so much was still new to him. He wasn't sure if this was how life has always been, but he wanted it to always be this way. He had constant affection from this little girl alone, what more could he ask for?

The two were currently in Star's room, with the little girl planning a full day for them outside the castle walls. She was hoping that everyone would get to know the "little awesome magic spike ball baby that saved my life!", as she often told people when they asked about said baby.

Just outside the little girl's room, was the parents of the little girl. Each of them had a concerned and worried expression on their faces. They were going to tell their daughter something that she might not like, and they knew that she was not going to take it well. None of them had anything against the little baby, in fact, they loved him for not only saving Star's life apparently, but for also making their daughter the happiest she has been in a long time. But, with that said, there was just some things that had to be done.

"Okay, magic Baby…" The little elated Princess said as she pushed the baby on a bright blue stroller. "I'm going to introduce you to all of the kingdom, that way we can have all the same friends, so it won't be weird when we try to have some over for a sleep over!" She excitedly explains her plan as she bursts out of her room. "Then we can…" She begins, only to stop mid-sentence when she sees her parents looking right at her. She looks up at them casually, not taking not how worried their faces were at the moment. "Hey guys, I was just taking Magic Baby for a stroll around Mewni, nothing exciting, for now." She quietly whispers that last part, knowing that her parents might not approve of her plans for later on.

"Star," Moon Butterfly answers. "Exactly how attached are you to the youngling? I've noticed that you've been hovering over him ever since his arrival." She says with soft concern.

"Oh, I love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love , love, love, loooooove, love, love, love, love, looove him soooo much." She hopped with joy. "He's cool and cute and magic and always listens to what I have to say without judgement, isn't that wight little cutie." She cooed as she bends down to the little boys level. Said little bout just touched her nose with his little finger as he gave a light chuckle. "Ohhhh, your so pudgy!" Star squealed as she squished the chubby cheeks of the baby.

River Butterfly leans closer to his wife with his eyes widened. "Dear, that was more than five loves in a row, this is more serious than we thought." The king confirms. The Queen could only nod in agreement as she to also realized how seriously attached to the infant their daughter was. "Just tread carefully dear, we don't want to have a breakdown like last time." They both wince in memory of the last emotional breakdown. They had never seen so many broken windows and furniture in one room, not to mention the other messes resulted from the chaos, and that was all over not getting dessert.

"Star, we know that you are fond of the baby, and we mean you no discomfort or sadness." At this Star begins to frown at her mother's words, feeling like something bad was going to happen. "You want to do what's best for him, do you?"

"Of course, I do! He's the best baby I've ever met! He helped me beat up my first monster! He listens to everything I say! He lets me draw over his face with glitter and paint!" She shouted a little overenthusiastically as she picks up the baby and shows them the various makings made by said glitter and paint. "I would do anything for him!"

"Star, you do know that he can't stay with us, right? We have to give him back to wherever he belongs to." River cautiously stated, knowing full well what was going to happen next. Star, as expected, began to go red as she violently stomped up and down.

"NOnnonononononononononononono! He can't go away! He's my magic baby! He belongs with me, with us, with our family!" She shouted as tears began to flow down her face. She never wanted to hear those words enter her ears. Why would her parents want to get rid of the greatest thing that she has ever found?

"Star, we can't keep him. He's not your toy or a pet. He's a still growing infant, and he needs the care of his real family." Moon said, getting a little more impatient with her complaining daughter. "He'll be fine, we'll make sure he's as comfortable as possible until his guardians are found.

"But he has his real family! Me! He saved my life the other day when I was trying to save his life! It's like magic, or, or, fate, or whatever storybooks call it!" She cuddles close to the baby, who face began to wince at all the anger and sadness the little girl began to pour in the air. "He can't go anywhere, he can't, he can't, he can't, he can't!" She repeatedly cried out as her voice began to fail her.

"Star, we know this is a bit much to swallow, but it has to be done." Moon sternly states as she orders the nearby guards to gather the baby. "Place him in the right custody and spread the word to find his parents." She commanded as the guards do as they were ordered. The little Mewni Princess tries to fight the off, trying to keep the baby out of their reach, but it was all for naught. Within moments, the boy was in the guard's hands and walking towards the exit. "St, sta, sta," the baby babbles incoherently as he is carried off.

Star was now in a frenzy. She ran towards them, trying to get her little baby back as they walk off. She comes close to reaching him, only to be stopped by the arms of her parents. "Star, you have to let him go. He'll be find without you." Moon tries to calm her down as she struggles to contain her daughter. Both her and River look at each other, knowing they had to do what was best, but they still couldn't help but feel bad deep down for making their own daughter cry.

But Star was not willing to let it go. "No! NO! NO!" She screamed as her hair began to rise. Her parents take note of this and began to loosen their grip, not really sure what was going to happen. "NO! NO! NO! NO! NOOOOO!" she screeched as the little hearts on her cheeks begin to glow as she begins to float off the ground. "Noooooooooooooo!" She howled as her eyes became blank with a luminous light. All around her, floor tiles, pieces of the walls, shards of broken glass swirled around the little floating girl as her power began to rise. "No, no, no, NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" She continued.

"My word, what's happening to our daughter?!" The short statured King of Menwi questioned as he tried to get himself and his wife at a safe distance.

"Star's must've tapped into her innate magical abilities under all that emotional distress. But it's too much for her young body to handle!" The Queen of Mewni explained, trying to get a little closer. "She'll hurt herself if we don't do something, provided that she doesn't destroy the castle and us first."

"But what can we do?!" The king worriedly shouted as he got one good look at his daughter. The two guards from earlier were trying to get near the little child, hoping to contain the damage, only to be shot through the windows, leaving the confused little baby on the ground. He had no idea as to what was going on, but he knew something bad was going down. So, he began to crawl towards the two worried and afraid parents. "Can't your wand do anything about this, or maybe even Glosseyrick or…."

Wack.

A piece of armor knocks the king down on the ground, rendering him incapacitated, and a gigantic bruise on the head. Moon had no time to concern herself with her fallen husband as she prepared to face her daughter. "If I can get close enough, I might be able to use my wand to drain away some of her excess power." She thought. What she didn't notice however, was the little baby behind her, climbing on top of her husband's head, placing his small mouth on the spot where the bruise was. "Star, you must listen to me! You exerting to much strain on your body! I'm going to try something, but I need you to let me in!" She shouted, hoping some part of her is able to gain control.

Star briefly looks at her mother. Her face softens at her sight. Even when they disagreed, her mother still always did what was best for her. She wanted to trust her, she wanted to let her help….

"Ahhhhhhh.!" The little princess shouted in pain as her power grew even more, the pain from using so much magic had started to take its toll on the little girl's body. "MOM. MOM. MOM! So. So. Sorrrrrrryyy…" was all she was able to stammer out as more debris began to circle around her. Faster and faster it spanned, the faster went, the deadlier it became.

"STAR, PLEASE!..." The mother shouted as she was prepared to blast her way through. More and more debris were hurled at her as she prepared to blast her way….

Whomp.

A bright pink light shines in front of her at the very moment she was going to fire her spell. She was unprepared to see the bright gleaming pink shield right in front of her, and she did not expect it to come from the little baby of all places, who had attached himself to the Queen's leg. The bright pink Gem shined as the baby gave out an elated chuckle. She looked back at the shield, now noticing the design, the symbol on its center. It looked very, very familiar.

"No, it couldn't be." She whispers in shocked realization. "Your, you, you're her's?" She questioned before picking the child up. The shield was still up, and it seemed handle the force of Star's power. So slowly she made her way up. She had to block and blast every bit of debris that came her way, which was pretty easy with both a shield and magic wand at hand. What was not easy was doing so while holding a baby. She knew that the shield and the Baby were a packaged deal, so she let the baby grab a hold of her neck as she made her way through. Fortunately, the baby had a surprisingly strong grip, so he was able to hang on as she fought to protect them both. Every time she unleashed a spell, she would hear the happiness come from the little boy's mouth, which was both charming and distracting.

"Glad that one of us is having fun here." She snarked as she finally made her way to the middle to confront her daughter. Star screamed in pain, the power being too much for her little body to handle. Moon sadly looked away for a moment, knowing this was not about to be a pleasant experience.

"Star, listen to me, you must calm down for a second for me to concentrate!" Moon shouted as she prepared to launch her spell. Star was in too much pain to really listen. Her entire body was in a giant spasm, so her arm and legs where waving every where. Each time that she did, it let out a wave of power than forced everything back. Moon luckily still had the shield, or else she would be flying against the wall. "Star, relax! I'm going to..." Moon shouted out her daughter right as she let out one of her spasms.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" She screamed in pain as she let out the power. Her veins glowed a bright white, like its was about to burst out of her body at any second. The power spasm was so powerful that it knocked the wand out a window. Moon felt defeated, she had no way to save her daughter, and all for what? A little lost..

That's it!

She took a long look at the Baby's gem. If this infant was who she thought he was, then he may be Star's only hope now.

"I hope I'm right about this." She said with a slight frown. She once again walked towards her chiled, this time carrying the baby in her left arm. Once again, they made their way to the center and met the mouning child. "Star, come closer, you have to let the baby touch you!"

"No, no, no, keep Magic Baby away! I don't want to hurt anyone else anymore, especially not him!" she feared as the both her mother and the baby closed in. She tried to move away, but she was in to much pain to really move, and she didn't now how to move while floating anyway.

"Star you must! He's special, just like you! He can help stop the pain!"

"But, but, but I'm dangerous! I'm going to hurt him, just like that monster tried to do!"

"Star, listen to me!" Her mom dropped the shield, which immediately disappeared one it touched the ground. She placed a calming had on her daughter's right shoulder, and spoke to her with a comfident smile. "You are not a danger, and never think that your a monster. You are my daughter, my little Star Butterfly, and I know you wont hurt him, just like I know you will get through this." She calmly said as she held out the baby to her daughter. The baby, once again, showed no fear to anything that has transpired as he eagerly reaches out to the older girl. Star, with tears now rushing down her face like a waterfall, hug the baby in a deep embrace. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." She kept on repeating as she held the baby with everything she had. She takes a good look at the baby as she holds him face to face. "Please help me." She pleaded. The boy, as if he understood her dilemma, reached out his little head, and placed his lips on her cheek, almost like a kiss. Star was delighted and confused at the same time. But before she could ponder anything else, the white light glowed even brighter, with a luminance to match that of the sun. Everything was blank all was quiet, all was still.

A few hours later.

"She's find for now, my Queen." The voice a Glosseyrick answered. One of the oldest beings in the universe, Glosseyrick was knowledgeable in many things, especially in all things involving the Butterfly family history, and their most prized possession, the wand. Still, that didn't stop him from being a rude, almost apathetic, jerk. "Her body is resting from the magic overload. She should be fine in the mourning. At most, she'll forget about it, and chalk it up to a bad dream." The tiny blue man observed the sleeping body of said sleeping princess, who had the baby cuddled up in her arms, sleeping right beside her.

"Thank you. I guess we should be grateful that all their is. Star is beeter off not remembering the trauma of today." River sighed in relief along side her husband.

"Oh, I wouldn't say that my liege." The Blue man interrupted the moment. "If the magic overload was as big as you said it was, than this is going to be the least of your problems. I have never heard of a princess use magic without the wand at such an early state, not even Queen Eclipsa." All three adult bodies shiver at the very mention of the name of the Dark Queen.

"So your saying that Star might reach that level of power?" Said the concerned mother.

"No. I'm saying that little Star here is on the verge of leveling up to a power, far pass of Eclipsa's." Said the floating man, without restraint or tact at all. This widens the eyes of both parents. "Now what of the boy? You said that he was the main source of out little princesses tantrum, as well as the solution to it.?" He said as he got a closer look at the baby.

"Yes, you see, I believe that he may be the offspring of an old friend of my family." She inquired, with Glossyerick picking up on what she meant as soon as he spotted the pink mineral sticking out from the baby' flesh. "I see, so this is the son of the "Rose Guard". Hpm, that would explain why Star had gotten so attached to him, she always did have a way with connecting to people." The wise old man simply chuckled upon remembering the tall, pink warrior.

"But what do we do now? If what you say is true, then she's gone. We have no way of knowing where any of her kind are, or if they would even except him, and we can't just give him away to any random citizen, he's to important to leave in the hands of anyone." The King questioned, not liking where this was all going.

Glossyerick glanced at the two sleeping younglings. "Not everyone." He said slowly before turning to the two Royals. "Why not let him be here? I mean, he's already quite found of Star, and, well you know how attached she is to him." Glossyerick expressed. The two parents just looked at each other in worry.

"Can we? I mean, sure, Star would be delighted, and I actually would be thrilled to have a son around here, but can we really do this dear?" River asks.

"I suppose we would be the best to raise him since his mother's gone. Its the least I could do after everything's she's done for me." Moon says, also not bothered to have another child. "But can we risk them both together?"

"Look, my liege, I'm going to be blunt with you know: Its already too late." The Butterfly elders just give a confused look. "Star's life is already intertwined with the Rose Guard offspring. Their fates are tied together, it was the moment he helped her with that power overload. To separate them, especially now would be, disastrous to say the least." The floating man stated as the Butterflies keep staring at the two children in shock. "They are going to need each other as they grow up, tough times are ahead, and they may be the only people the can rely on to get through it." He pauses for a second to let them process the information. "It's your choice in the end, but if you ask me, the choice has already been made." He gestures at the two children before floating off, leaving the two Butterfly Adults to decided.

"So, what do we do?"

Morning came all too soon for the little Princess. She woke up with a feeling of dread. Sure enough, she turned over to the side of her bed, and there was no Baby. She searched for any signs of him, any sign that he was still there, but no. Every piece of hope that she had were dashed away. She sadly sighed as she made her way to the dining hall. At least she could attempt to forget her sorrows by stuffing her face.

She slowly made her way to the table as she sat in her chair, the one farthest from her parents. She could barely remember what happened yesterday. All she remembers is crying, seeing the baby leave, and then, blank, a white light. She couldn't recall what else had happened, and at the moment, she didn't care. The greatest person, well baby, was gone, and it was all because of her parents. She sadly looked at her plate of food. It was bigger than usual, but that hardly compared to what was next to it, a smaller plate of food. But it what was on that plate that shocked her, it was the fact it was on her old Baby stool.

Her parents had just come in, with small smiles on their faces. "Hello Star, how are you feeling this mourning?" He mother politely asks. Star chooses not to answer as she crosses her arms, wondering why they would even ask that question.

River decided to step in. "Star, we know that yesterday was not the best of times for you, but know we had to do what was best for the both of you."

Star still pouts as she gives no reply. What was with their smiles? Why did they seem so happy when she felt so terrible? And what was with that Baby stool?

"Star, just know that we love you, and that we had to do what we needed to do, for both you and your brother." Moon smiles as she gives out her news.

Star finally gets fed up with this act. "Why?! Just why!? Why did you make him leave?! Why did you get rid of someone that made me so happy?! And why are acting like it was for the best for me and..." she pauses as she relizes what she was about to say. "Did, you say.."

Suddenly, right behind them, a loud "Sta" echoed the room.

No, they didn't, they, this had to...

And sure, right that very second, River lifted up the source of the sound, which was the baby, in now more formal baby clothes. "Star, meet your new baby brother, Quartz Butterfly."

Star could not believe. Never in her short life had her parents changed their minds on something so big, and she was not about to let such an opportunity pass by. She shot out of her chair like a rocket, and grabbed the baby from her father's hands. "Thankthankyouthankyouthanyouthankyouthankyou!" She constantly repeated as she began to twirl around with the baby in hand, not caring how dizzy she, or the baby for that matter, was getting. The parents of now two children could only smile as they watched them both in happy ecstasy. It was like watching two beautiful, bright and luminous stars in perfect alignment, dancing before their very eyes, inspiring hope for a bright future.

"I promise you, magic baby, I will never let you go." Star vowed, knowing she would do anything to keep her brother and herself together.

I just love fluff. It makes me happy and leaves me with a warm feeling inside
