Celetialfyxen: Good to hear. Heh…probably.
Star's Keyblade4114: Yeah, she's a little…crazy.
Jss2141: Heh, good to hear…sorry about that.
Before I start, I want to answer a question from an anonymous reviewer in my All sorts series. I'm fine, I'm not letting Kellco dampen my mood, it's just I write nine one-shots a week. Three in All sorts, three in One-shot collection and three in One-shot Series, and I feel like I am reaching a point where I will either end up dropping from exhaustion, burnt out or in the hospital, so I'm giving myself a little break from the one-shots for a week and I hope to return fresh next week.
And with that, please enjoy the third chapter.
Star and Marco stood on the balcony, staring up at the night sky as nocturnal creatures flew above them. Hearing a twig snap in the garden below, they looked down with glowing eyes to see a figure walking around the garden. Without hesitation, the two undead teens jumped from the balcony towards the figure.
The two Vampires stood in front of a green-haired woman with spade marks on her cheeks. The woman looked at them and slightly smiled, "Oh, hello," the two stared at her in silence as she shook her head, "Don't mind me, dears, I was just enjoying an evening walk through the garden and-"
"Who are you?" Marco demanded slowly, stepping closer to her, "You smell of Mewman, so you're safe from me, but that doesn't explain who you are and why you're-"
"Oh, how terribly rude of me, my name is Eclipsa Butterfly, and you two will be?"
"S-Star Butterfly and my future husband Marco," Star introduced the two with caution, "But…you said your name was Eclipsa? How can that be? I thought Eclipsa died over three hundred years ago and-"
"No…I am still very much alive, but…the Magic High Commission had me imprisoned for abandoning the throne and marrying a monster," the two Vampires stared at her with wide eyes, "And Globgor is a gentle giant, but those bigoted fools wouldn't listen and they crystalized me and Globgor shortly after-"
"Didn't you get a trial or something?" Marco arched a brow and the two Mewmans looked at him, "A trial? You know…something where you and…Globgor? You two present a case proving your innocence and those monsters running the Commission tries to prove you're guilty?"
"A trial? Hmm, no, I don't suppose I was given one…and did you just refer to the Commission as monsters? Either you're really brave and truly foolish, boy," Marco ignored her as Star frowned and took hold of his hand, "I take it you met them and-"
"One is a demoness, one represents a Wendigo, a Native Zombie, one has a crystal for a head and snakes for arms and the other is a Chimera, so…yes, they are monsters and I don't feel sorry for calling them-" before he could finish, Moon, Hekapoo, Rhombulus, Omnitraxus and Lekmet ran out of the castle and Omnitraxus grabbed Eclipsa, picking her up and stared at her intently, "Hey!" His cry went ignored as everyone glared at Eclipsa.
Growling under his breath, Marco swiftly kicked the back of Rhombulus' leg, causing the crystal headed before to jump in pain and all eyes focused on him, "Why in the hell are you going to crystalize her? Give me a reason,"
"She is a monster lover!" Omnitraxus answered, "She abandoned the throne to run off with a monster and-"
"Put her down, or I'll gladly kill you,"
"Marco," Star sighed and shook her head, "While we can kill most of the members of the Magic High Commission, I don't think it's a good idea too threaten them," Star looked up with narrowed eyes and crossed her arms, "Now, put Eclipsa down and she will be given a trial!" everyone stared at the two undead teens in silence before Star hissed and bared her fangs, "I said put her down!" Omnitraxus hesitantly lowered Eclipsa to the ground before stepping away, "Now-"
"Don't worry, she won't be the only one crystalized tonight,"
"Rhombulus!" Moon snapped and looked at the crystal headed being in anger, "I told you that you are not to go after my daughter or her husband! Do you know the story of how they came to be!"
The air between them grew still and Marco inhaled slowly as he shook his head, "I was bit after protecting my now ex-girlfriend from a Vampire, a short time later, I met this lovely lady next to me. While she wanted to kill me at first, she heard me out and…she still wanted to kill me, but after some time, that urge went away and she invited me to stay in the castle with her and her parents.
A short time after that, Toffee attacked her and nearly killed her, forcing me to turn her or lose my mate. So…if you intend to crystalize her, just know that none of you will be safe from me. None of you are Mewman, so I don't care if I kill any of you,"
The air between the Commission and the two Vampires grew thick before Moon took a deep breath and shook her head, "Very well, we will give her a trial, but once she is found guilty, you two will be in serious trouble…and no, Rhombulus, you will not crystalize them. I will talk to them on my own,"
The crystal headed being groaned and crossed his arms, "And Eclipsa will be getting her own room until the trial," everyone looked at the two Vampires and Star shook her head, "Eclipsa will be getting a proper room until her trial. You can have guards at the door, but she deserves a room her own,"
Moon inhaled deeply and shook her head as she pinched the bridge of her nose, "Fine…but don't expect to not face any punishment tonight you two," she looked at Eclipsa and crossed her arms, "Eclipsa, if you will follow me," Eclipsa stepped away from the High Commission and followed Moon back into he castle as the members of the High Commission stared at the two Vampires.
"What? Are you idiots looking for an apology?" Marco arched a brow, "Because you're not getting one. All four of you are monsters and that's the truth. One is a demoness, one is a Wendigo, one has snakes for arms and the other is a Chimera. So before you go around hating monsters, I suggest you bastards take a good hard look at yourselves in the mirror,"
"Honey," Star slightly smiled as she took hold of his hand and Marco looked at her in confusion, "Let's not worry about them. I want to walk around the castle for a while and I'd like to talk to Eclipsa before she goes to sleep tonight,"
Marco sighed and slightly smiled at her, "Yeah…okay Estrella…we should…leave before this turns into something we can't control and your mom does more than lecture us tonight," Star hummed and nodded before the two of them turned and walked away, hand-in-hand and in silence.
And Eclipsa has made her appearance. As always enjoy everyone and please let me know what you all think.
