A/N: This chapter contains my head-canon about why the chapter causes possessions. I hope you like it.

Chapter 41: A Page Turning Battle

Glossaryck was eating chips while Star was annoying. However it should be pointed out that Glossaryck only ate one perfect chip after going through bags.

"Just pick one already!" yelled Star.

"There's only ever one chip worth eating." Said Glossaryck, "If you're so bored you could be practicing your magic."

"Fine." Said Star walking to the book, "What are we doing today?"

"Why don't you pick something." Said Glossaryck.

"And my mom would cool with it?" gasped Star.

"Yes, there are a lot I do that your mom won't be cool with!" said Glossaryck.

"How cool would she be with this!" said Star holding up a random page from the book.

"Table of contents? A thrilling choice." Glossaryck responded sarcastically.

"Why is that in the middle?" asked Star.

She began to search though the book but Glossaryck responded to both the pages she chose with "Pathetic" and "Pedestrian!"

He might have been talking about the chips.

"The perfect chip!" said Glossaryck.

"Oh what's this!" said Star.

Glossaryck saw the chapter… Eclipsa's.

"What's this?" asked Star, "Wait… is this…"

"Oh no! No! No! No!" said Glossaryck taking the book away from.

"But you said anything." Said Star.

"That's the most dangerous chapter in the book, your mom would totally freak if you read it." Said Glossaryck.

"Oh I got to see it now!" said Star.

"I don't know… it could taint you." Said Glossaryck.

"Janna is fine after reading it." Said Star.

"I don't know if Janna was "fine" before she read it." Said Glossaryck.

Star pouted… then remember something, she pointed her wand and five 1 Gallon Buckets appeared and each of them were filled with pudding: One vanilla, one chocolate, one banana, one butterscotch and one cheesecake.

"I should have known." Said Glossaryck then he noticed the banana even had nilla wafers, "But is it any good?"

He took a small bit from the vanilla bucket, "yes… yes it is good." Said Glossaryck.

"I happen to be good at food making spells… it helps to have brothers have black holes for stomachs…" said Star.

"Well I guess after what happened last time, I'm kind of obligated to do it." Said Glossaryck.

However he used his gem to create a hand to push her away.

"But considering what happened to Janna, you won't be reading everything." Said Glossaryck.

"Hey!" said Star.

"Sorry, but who knows what could happen." Said Glossaryck.

He turned his toenail into a key and unlocked the chapter.

"All right! I'm going show you a page for only a second." Said Glossaryck.

However that was when he started to ring.

"The Bureaucracy of Magic?" asked Glossaryck.

He held his fingers like a phone in order to take the call.

"Yes, this is he… uh this is…" said Glossaryck.

"Tell them your busy." Said Star.

"This is a bad time." Said Glossaryck.

"Tell them your busy." Said Star.

"Are you listening to me." Said Glossaryck.

"You're busy." Said Star.

"Not a good time… This is the worst time!"" Said Glossaryck however it was clear it was a losing fight, "Star I'll be right back."

"Just hang up." Said Star.

"Don't turn the page." Said Glossaryck.

That was when his eyes turned black and he was floating around.

She tried to wake him up even flipping him to do so unaware that he had astral projected himself to the Bureaucracy of Magic.

Due to the fact that she didn't know this she decided to call her mother, but then realized her mother wouldn't let her read the chapter and changed her mind.

She sat in front of the book staring at it and soon enough Marco came into the room.

"Hey Star! Guess what! I got my first chest hair!" said Marco then he took out a flashlight as he opened up his shirt to show it off, "It's hard to see but if you look at it in just the right light."

Then he noticed the floating Glossaryck.

"Uh… Glossaryck… what's wrong with him?" asked Marco.

"He's on the fritz." Said Star still staring at the chapter.

Then he noticed the state Star was in.

"Are you doing something you're not supposed to?" asked Marco.

"Glossaryck said not to turn the page." Sighed Star.

"Wait… is that the chapter that gave Janna magic?" asked Marco.

"It is!" said Star, "Wait! He didn't say anything about you turning the page!"

"Yeah… but…" said Marco.

"Come on! What's the worst that could happen?" asked Star, "If anything you might end up getting magic like Janna. Which would be awesome… and we can blame Glossaryck!"

"That's a good point…" said Marco.

However as Marco got ready to turn the page, Star began to chant "Turn the page!"

This actually got Marco excited as he got ready to turn the page.

Once he turned the page both of them started to read the chapter.

However as they read the chapter something began to happen to Marco. A dark shadow surrounded him.

He grabbed his head.

"Marco, what's wrong?" asked Star.

He began to float as a strange vortex appeared, his eyes became a star like void. He hovered in the vortex seemed to connect to that.

"Oh… that's not good…" said Star.

She then sighed an eyed the book and knew that maybe to fix this she might have to read the rest of the chapter.

Hopefully that would be the key to cure Marco.

It and it really did help that whatever was going on with Marco he was content with floating in his vortex.

Or it would be if Luffy hadn't arrived.

He came through a portal breathing heavily.

Star noticed this.

"What happened?" asked Star.

"Gramps… surprise attack, almost got me again." Said Luffy.

"Of course." Said Star rolling her eyes, not at Luffy but as Garp's antics.

Luffy noticed Marco.

"What's wrong with him?" asked Luffy.

"We're reading Eclipsa's chapter and then that happened to him." said Star.

However the noticed the look Marco was giving Luffy, it looked to be a mix of distain and fear.

That was when Marco created demonic looking shadow hands to attack Luffy.

Luffy dodged and grabbed onto the one of the posts of Star's bed.

"Okay! What the heck Marco!" yelled Luffy.

"I am not Marco!" hissed Marco in a voice that mix of Marco's own and a strangely raspy voice, "I have claimed this form has my own!"

"And he's possessed… I should have known." Sighed Star.

The thing possessing Marco once again attacked Luffy.

"You try to reach him! I read the chapter and see if it will help him!" said Star.

"Is there anything so far." Said Luffy.

"Just some of the usual diary stuff and monster dating tips." Said Star.

"Marco! You can get that thing out of you!" yelled Luffy, "I know you! And I know you wouldn't let that thing control your body!"

"There is no Marco only Zuul!" hissed the thing posing Marco.

"Uh… is that actually your name or…" said Luffy.

"No… I happen to like that movie…. I just really wanted to say that…" Said the thing possessing Marco with a shrug, "I know… something like me enjoying that movie, but it has good comedy."

"Okay… " said Luffy unsure how to respond.

"I refuse to give my name!" yelled the thing Possessing Marco.

"Okay!" said Luffy. "Marco!"

"He can't hear you!" mocked the thing possessing Marco, "I know the whole I know you're in there thing… but it isn't going to work! The soul asleep and will never awaken as long as I'm here!"

Luffy gritted his teeth.

The thing possessing Marco created a more shadow limbs to attack Luffy.

"Why are you even attacking me!" yelled Luffy.

"You want to know?" asked the Thing Possessing Marco, "I sense a danger coming from you!"

"What?" asked Luffy confused.

"I sense it! You are going to become strong in the future not to mention dangerous." Said the thing possessing Marco, "A real threat… so it's best for the multi-verse to stomp it out now."

"What?" asked Luffy again even more confused.

"I know an evil thing like me wanting to get rid of you for the good of the multi-verse…" said the thing possessing Marco with a shrug, "But whatever… I can sense the power you hold… and the power you will hold…"

The possessed Marco continued to lash out.

Luffy jumped around dodging the shadow appendages.

"Still not done!" called out Star.

Luffy nodded.

"So…" said Luffy.

"Up to you… do you think Marco can take it?" asked Star.

Luffy nodded, it was probably a good idea to beat some sense into Marco to "wake" him up.

He punched Marco's face, however a shawl blocked the punch.

"Oh my… you have no idea." Mocked the thing Possessing Marco, "My abilities are absolute!"

The thing possessing Marco created more shadow limbs.

"Gum Gum Gatling!" yelled Luffy.

He punched away and through the shadow limbs. However it was clear he breaking through some of them.

"How is this possible!" shouted the thing possessing Marco.

"Gum Gum Pistol!" yelled Luffy punching Marco's body in the face.

The thing possessing Marco floated up and glared at Luffy.

"It will take so much more to wake up your friend." Said the thing possessing Marco creating more shadow limbs.

However that was the moment that Glossaryck returned to his body.

And he had been through hell. He had to meet with the Magic High Commission. Thanks to a leak in magic everything there was on the fritz, meaning it took forever to actual meet with them.

A whole of magic thanks to his anger.

However when he arrived he also saw that Star had finished the chapter.

"So?" asked Glossaryck not noticing the fight between the possessed Marco and Luffy.

"Yeah…" said Star.

"So you read it all?" asked Glossaryck.

"Yeah…" said Star.

"And?" asked Glossaryck.

"It wasn't all that. Power of darkness, forces of evil, which monster is the most dateable… blah blah blah." Said Star, "Honestly it just wasn't my thing!"

"Yes!" cheered Glossaryck.

"Gum Gum Spear!"

Both of them turned to Luffy give the spear like double kick to the possessed Marco's stomach. However the possessed teenager quickly recovered.

"Oh and Marco read it but didn't get magic like Janna… he got possessed." Said Star.

"Oh… Luckily there's a spell that can fix that." Said Glossaryck.

And he taught Star the spell and she quickly exercised Marco.

"Oh…" groaned Marco now that he was once again in control of his body.

"Sorry about that." Said Luffy.

"It's fine…" said Marco, "I really can't blame you or fighting my body… considering it attacked first."

"Okay! Marco's okay! Everything's fine…" said Star, "Now Glossaryck! You can't play dumb about it! You have to explain what' up with Eclipsa's chapter!"

Glossaryck sighed. With Janna they could shrug it off, but with Marco who had a very different results he knew he couldn't pretend nothing's wrong.

"Fine… unless the person is a Queen or Princess of Mewni if they read the chapter something happens to them." Said Glossaryck, "But it wasn't because of Eclipsa… it's because of the fact the Magic High Commission."

"Why?" asked Luffy.

"Because they're the one who sealed the chapter. The book in itself has powerful magic weaved through out it. But keeping the darkness locked up, it causes negative side effects." Said Glossaryck, "Namely the forces of darkness tries to claim their body… if they're able to fight them off they either gain the ability to use magic or magic in of itself."

"And Janna was able to fight them off." Said Marco.

"Probably scared them away." Joked Star.

This made Marco laugh, "Okay… that makes way too much sense." He admitted.

"Yes… yes… now you know why Janna has magic mystery is solved." Sighed Glossaryck.

"Wait… so let me get this straight…" said Marco, "The magic high commission locked away the chapter so that it wouldn't corrupt people… but due to the fact that it's locked up, there's a good chance that it will corrupt people just in a different way?"

"Pretty much…" sighed Glossaryck, "Look the Magic High Commission isn't very competent… it would make sense that this choice bite them somehow."

"So…" said Star.

"Yeah, except for telling Janna about where she got her powers, let's try to not to bring this up again." Said Marco.

"Good idea." Said Luffy with a shrug who really didn't want to be reminded about it.

"Wait… but what happens if Luffy reads the chapter." Said Star.

Marco and Glossaryck looked at each other.

"You know what… let's never find out." Said Marco.

"And no amount of pudding will make me agree. I'm putting my foot down." Said Glossaryck.

"Fine." Said Star figuring it was bad.

"It's okay." Said Luffy, "I don't know if I want to use magic."

"Of course you don't." said Star which made Luffy laugh.

And with that Star read Eclipsa's chapter and discovered the truth of why Janna gained magic.

But what she didn't know that that chapter would still cause her problems in the future… she just didn't know when… but it would…

Next Time: Marco wants to ask out Jackie... but is having problems, namely blurting out his inner most secrets. The cause is a demon curse... and it becomes worse when a tiny head pops out of Marco's neck. What will happen? Find out next time!

A/N: It would make sense for the cause of the possessions to be the seal on the chapter. I mean having their "solution" cause worse problems for them is just the thing that would happen involing the Magic High Commission...Once again I hope you like it...

Also couldn't help adding more from what I learned from reading Eclipsa's chapter...
