CHAPTER 1- NEW LAND, NEW OPPORTUNITIES?
Marco Ubaldo Diaz the 'safe kid' as he was called for his whole life, now earning his own dimensional scissors because he messed up, he kind of abused their power and Hekapoo, the Scissors Enforcer and member of High Commission was pretty pissed at him so she decided to take his, sorry Stars Scissors and gave him an ultimatum, or he gain his own or he can go back on EArth, telling Star how he lost them, the option for our hero was only one, he don't want to see his best friend sad and angry at him so he decided to take her challenge, for the first minutes it seemed pretty easy, but after she duplicated into several hundred clones, the whole challenge was like a big mountain he cant lift, he considered giving up but image of his best friend being sad overpowered the feeling of certain death he felt, so that's how the race for Scissors begun.
Marco 'The Redbane' 'The Slayer' and many more Ubaldo Diaz was in Neverzone, Dimension X-103 or as other calls it 'a literal hell'' the place where you are being pray to everything around you, even simple rock can explode and kill you on spot, monsters and other beings don't like to even mention Neverzone, the fear is so great that it's a law to not speak in public about it, but Marrco knew it's gonna be dangerous, but not this much, first few nights on constant watch for anything that could kill him, but he never gave up, not for Star, he knows that she might be angry at him for it but its worth of tantrum, several days without sleep can take its toll, especialy when you are fourteen year old teenagerfighting monsters on daily basis with barely enough food to survive, Hekapoo is amused by his determination to earn those Scissors, others when give the challenge would freak out or even pass out from fear, even if they took the challenge they would retire in a few days, but not him, he isn't something special, only big talent he has is his brain, nothing more, no muscles, but he has this weird style of fighting he calls 'karate' she don't know what this means but it sounds like something very weak, but his determination and strong will are pushing him forward, maybe these years won't be so bad after all, only time will tell.
THIRD PERSON P.O.V
in a dense forest a boy making his way through could be seen, his long sword cutting bushes and other things that no one knows the purpose they had, his mind on one thing, or rather person, after so long in Neverzone he grew rather fond of this forest, here he decided to camp and make his base, a 'peaceful' place to make...well the safest in a few kilometers, the only danger that can be is some animals that are afraid of his methods of killing, he was walking for so long he don't even know where he is right now, the center of the entire forest, on the right side? he don't know, but one thing was for sure, he must find a big house where several clones are living and blow their flame out, he really don't know how long he must to walk, the forest is growing thicker and thicker with each passing second, he is exhausted, maybe he should take a rest for tonight? it's already dark and a bit of sleep could make him good, so he decided to take this rest, he found an perfect cave he can rest for the night, but first he must find something to eat, he must think like he couldn't find anything in the morning,first rule he made is exactly that, your own life is the most important after the first five years he spent here the lesson was quickly embed in his mind, he can't risk his life for someone who wouldt give him profit from this right?. Seeking prey was easier said than done, he is looking for nearly two hours before he spotted something brown between bushes, he started stalking his newfound pray with a knife in his hand, he must be very silent to not scare this animal, maybe today he will feast, have strength to fight Hekapoos clones and be closer to obtaining those damn scissors, he walked closer to the mysterious animal, he creeped closer to it and saw that it looked like a Earth's deer, Marco raised his knife when he was close enough and brought it down on poor animal that was oblivious to what was happening. Marco looked at the night sky from the top of tree to determine his position and maybe he could spot Hekapoos house that would be lucky for him, he started climbing down when he heard the branch he was standing broke, he started falling down towards the ground hitting branches, he was getting closer and closer to hard ground, he wrapped his arms around his neck to not die from the impact, but the pain never came, instead he landed in water, he opened his eyes and started swimming towards surface, he don't know what happened, something teleported him or something like that? if yes then that complicates things a lot, he doesn't know where he is, around him is only forest, but what shocked him the most is that he is back in his 14 years old body, did he get back on Earth? but he didn't surrender the quest so it's impossible for it to happen, but the forest he is in resembles this on Earth, green, trees and animals everywhere around him, maybe he really is back? he hopes not, maybe it's a dream.
-STOP RIGHT THERE TRESPASSER, HANDS IN THE AIR SO I CAN SEE THEM AND DON'T MAKE ANY HOSTILE MOVEMENTS- someone shouted behind him, he didn't looked back, he instead did as ordered, but he isnt going to be defeated this easily, even if he is in his 14 years old body he is sure that he can still kick some ass especially that he still has memories about his training, his body remember everything, the thought about being back on Earth are shattered, the person behind him spoke like he was a soldier, the clatter of armor behind him proved him right, he still isn't back on Earth, then where is he, Neverzone never used that type of shouting, this always was about 'kill or be killed' ideology, so he can be in another dimension, but where? he don't have Scissors to use, did someone wanted him here? if yes then they wouldn't be this aggressive towards him, something is definitely wrong, he must go back as soon as possible, Marco was startled when cold and hards and probably hard edge of sword ro something touched his back, he didn't make any movement to not anger his opresor, first he must find out where he is.
-you are trespassing the border of Mewni, state your name, business and where you are from- the steel pressed against his back is impaling slowly in his skin, he doesn't have time to think about excuses.
-my name is Marco Diaz, i got transported here by some portal that opened under me and i'm from Neverzone or as you may know it Dimension X-103- Marco calmly answered, he felt the weapon retreat from his back, did he just saved himself from being killed?
-if thats true, how long did you stayed in that dimension and what was your purpose there- Mewan soldier said calmly but with fierce in his voice, maybe not all soldiers are incompetent for the easy tasks, maybe the Queen that is ruling now put steel hand on training and discipline, maybe she will know how to get him back.
- I spent 8 years chasing Hekapoo to get my own Dimensional scissors, because I abused the previous ones that belonged to my friend, so I got determined to own them back- Marco answered with a strong voice, he heard a whistle behind him. Is this soldier impressed or something?
-that's impressive, and add that you don't look older than 15 i must say that a very few would agree to chase Hekapoo across her own dimension, maybe...maybe you will do great in our army kid, we would appreciate if you would fight on our side- Soldier said and Marco got confused, is it possible that Mewni got into a fight when he was away for 8 years?. it's possible, before he lived he heard from Moon that they have a small crisis with monsters, do they have war with monsters?
-war? last time i was here there wasn't any war? with who is Mewni fighting? are those monsters?- Marco asked surprised, did Mewni really get into a war with Monsters, the last time he knew a lizard with the name Toffee was plam=ning something but a war? isn't this too much for the kingdom?
-yes, monsters, now come on, I'm taking you to our capitan- with that Marco turned around towards his opresor, a man with silver armor and halberd, he started walking with him to his captain, maybe he will get the chance to talk with the Queen.
MARCOS P.O.V
We were walking for few minutes straight, the forest i landed is familiar to the one i was with Star one time, well at least i know im very close to Mewni kingdom, maybe i can ask for audience with Queen that is ruling right now, maybe she will be able to help me with it, we finally got there, the whole camp looked very poorly maybe it's on purpose to fool enemy, or financial problems.
-wait here Diaz. I will ask for a meeting with the commander, don't walk anywhere- the man said and walked. Who knows where, I looked around while waiting for him, every soldier I spotted had the same armor but different weapons, is this some sort of elite warrior or something like that? from what i recall Mewni never had something like that, did i get transported into the future? There are many possibilities. I need to work fast. If I'm in the past then I can't mess with this reality too much. It can have a big impact on the future and I'm sure that I don't want that.
-Diaz, lets go, commander is ready to see you- he escorted me into the big tent, it's the biggest one i saw here, it's definitely belong to someone in rule here, when i entered in the center was long table with many maps and sketches, a plans for attack and defense i'm sure, around the table stood many Mewans, the most recognizable was the one with gold and black armor, a commander for sure, others are maybe his advisors, they all turned towards me with judgmental eyes, i'm still waiting in my spot, commander must start the conversation after all, fortunately for me i didn't needed to wait long.
-Young men, i got news that someone from Neverzone got transported here and one of my soldiers saw you coming out of some weird portal wearing weird clothes, i think its you huh, well i expected more, but from what i know about Neverzone is true then i think it's understandable for you to look like that, now tell me kid, how old would you be now in Neverzone- a strong and loud voice boomed across the tent, i must say that this guy is intimidating for some novice soldier who hear this kind of voice for the first time, but i met some more intimidating and dangerous beings in Neverzone, i kept my head high to answer.
-Right now I would be 22 years old sir- I answered quickly, what Neverzones army though is to always keep answers short and straight to the point, I saw that he was impressed by my manners.
-22 hmmm… that's very interesting, i think you are suitable to join our forces, but tell me first, do you have any military experience- he said quickly but sharply, others looked interested at this, i know that Everyone has one of the bestest soldiers in the whole galaxy and Dimensions, the strongest and most dangerous kind of people and monsters that came from Neverzone is very dangerous and valuable, considering that wildnes can make you an excellent warrior fighting in military is even better.
-yes sir, 3 years in military, five being an mercenary while living in wild jungle- i said with strong voice, i wasn't afraid telling this, i just hope this won't have any impact on future...or wherever im in right now, the whole tent fell silent while everyone was deep in though, i think they are considering if im telling the truth ot not, after a few minutes of silence and me watching around the tent commander opened his eyes and looked at me.
-well kid...we are giving you permission to join our army, congratulations kid, and who knows maybe in the future you will have pleasure to see Princess Eclipsa and Queen Solaria, but for now go someone will show you your quarters where you will be sleeping for now, in a few days we will be leaving...and look outside, it already night, lets go to rest people- everyone stood up and when i exited what commander said is true it's already night, a pleasant wind blew and you could hear animals around, some soldiers was in their tents while others were around the fire laughing at something.
-Hey Marco, come on men, sit with us and tell us about Neverzone, we want to hear some of your adventures- the guy from earlier shouted from his seat near the fireplace, others looked excited at the mention of Neverzone, I'm not sleepy yet so why not? they already know this, i jogged to them, sat down opposite the guy from earlier and started talking about my time in Neverzone, i have long hours to talk to them before i will fall asleep.
300 YEARS LATER/MEWNI
Star Butterfly, a 'rebel' princess, she is doing nothing good for herself or others, actually...she tries to do something good but her luck isn't allowing her to do what she wants, there is always mishaps her mother must help her fix, her father is very happy that his little princess is living freely for now while her mother is trying to make her an perfect future Queen, she was bored to the bone by this, but after she burned the crop field her parents sent her on Earth where she met human boy by the name of Ma...who did she met, she dont remember, meh, if you don't remember something then it's not important right?
-Star Dear, i think that the trip to Earth did you good, you are not the same person you was before , this human...what was his name again?- Moon asked her daughter while the whole family was eating dinner, they all got confused at this, they remember that she met some new friends on Earth like Janna, Jackie and some others but...who was the guy she was living with.,
-emmm...i don't know mum, i remember a person with red hoodie but that's it, nothing else , maybe you dad remember him or her?- Star said with equal confusion as her mothers, River her dad just shrugged and shaked his head on sides, they all stopped eating to ponder about this mysterious human when Star got an idea.
-mom...this human got a very similar outfit to the person Eclipsa married?- Star said with glance at her Mother who shook her head in a negative answer.
-no dear, that IS very similar but can't be possible for king Marco to be the same person here, it's ridiculous, Eclipsa would recognize her own husband if he was here so no…but you are right the outfits are the same- Moon looked at the big tapestry presenting the most successful rulers Mewni had, King Marco ' the conqueror' 'the strongest' 'the fiercest' and Queen Eclipsa Butterfly 'the most beatiful' 'the wisest' 'the kindest', King Marco was presented as very intimidating and handsome person, the ultimate warrior and lover, he would do anything to keep his family safe for all means, an example is the one time when Monster King tried to abducted princess Eclipsa from castle on the night ball, Marco was at the time a simple knight, he threw himself in front of her so she could be safe, or was it only for honor and glory of saving a princess? no one knows what was in his mind at the time, the only thing they know about him is his journal that he wrote, Queen Eclipsa is another matter, when she was young she grew up to love peace and hate war, she tried to persuade her mother to make peace with monsters but she wouldn't listen, the whole war lasted several years with heavy casualties on both sides, when Eclipsa sat at the throne with her King they both made peace with monsters, the first few times to stop the war failed, Monster King didn't wanted peace, he wanted to destroy them all, that's the time when King Marco took matters into his own hands, for the start he demanded an better and stronger training of soldiers to conquer new land for Mewni, after several months Mewni expanded nearly doubled in size, Queen Eclipsa wanted him to stop and try to make the peace with them one more time but he put on his own mind and defeated her on this, what he said is written one of the most important things about ruling a kingdom 'when someone dont want to make peace you must show them how powerful you are and crush their forces, their power, and will to fight, when this fall they will realize then how wrong they were and will come to you begging for peace' next rulers took this whole thing to their heart, how much King Marco put his soul, heart and life into this is showing how strong he really was, making bigger army, training them and observing how his Kingdom is growing in size, right now its second in military power as in economy and culture, when Monster King attacked with his whole army he thought that this will be an easy win against Mewni but how wrong he was, the whole expansion and military training was very mysterious, only King, Queen and generals knew about this, so when Monster King attacked he didn't expected an total onslaught from Mewni Army, they all were surrounded and i complete schok, the King led front rows of soldiers in black and red armor with his specialty forged blades looking like night, The Monster KIng that led his warriors didn't expect such resistance from a small Kingdom like Mewni, from what he knew and remembered his army was three times larger than theirs, so what changed? King Marco assembled and special training and expansion to make better warriors and even better weapons, rumors says that his armor and weapons were forged by Hekappo, the Scissors forger, that itself is very impressive, the whole fight with monsters took only few minutes before Monsters Surrendered, after that Queen Eclipsa appeared on Battlefield to take care of negotiations, she was known from her preferences to make the both sides happy, so they did, of course King stood at her side to protect her if something came wrong, the previous candidate for a king was hopeless, he only cared for his well being, after previous Queen overheard his plans about her daughter she canceled marriage immediately, from that simple thing Mewni is now one of the greatest Kingdoms on their planet.
-lets not think about this for now dear, later we can visit them and see who this person is, maybe we are paranoid about this all, let's finish our breakfast and do our chores and later we can go to Earth to see what this all is about - River said and started eating his breakfast once again, the others joined him, Marcos travel really changed the past, he just don't realize that by saying his name he already changed it for the better, but maybe it's better when he traveled to the past and 300 years nothenles, being recognized as the one of the most powerful and respected Kings in whole Mews history, add to this that he was human that traveled through Neverzone to get a Dimensional Scissors, he is remembered by everyone as the second powerful ruler of Mewni just after Helia Butterfly, the most feared and respected Queen Mewni had before Marco and Eclipsa, his fame came from his hard ruling and devotion for his Kingdom, but the most beautiful thing about his ruling is when simple people could see him and his children walking through the city looking like an ordinary people, once he was asked why is he doing this he said 'i was the same before i became the King, why should i stop doing something i was doing for the most of my life' the Means that heard this were shocked, their king, a person who brought peace and maked their Kingdom better was normal human without knowledge about other dimensions before he got to Neverzone, this exclamation was documented to, telling others that even a commoner can achieve greatness, Mewni princesses had problems about their courage to be the next Queen, but king Marco destroyed the problems they had making future Queens even better, the Mewni kin god is still at the path to greatness.
4 HOURS LATER/ EARTH
Star and her parents were currently on Earth in Jackie's house talking about the things that happened on Earth and Mewni, Star's parents were talking with Jackie's and the girls were gossiping about their crushes.
-so Jackie, do you have anyone you like or not?- Star smirked playfully at her while Jackie blushed, Stars smirk flattered, she didn't know that the cool kid Jackie has anyone she likes.
-wait...are you serious, the cool kid who doesn't like anybody and is considering herself better than others has a crush on someone?- Star gaped at her and Jackie blushed harder and nodded frantically, Star squealed in delight, she has the new to bring for Pony Head, they will have a good time guessing who the lucky guy or girl is, but maybe she will spill the beans now
-tell me who the lucky guy or girl is right now or i swear i will use my want make you talk, and you really don't want that, trust me you don't- Jackie at this point is fidgeting in place, she didn't know what to say, maybe she can diverce the whole conversation to something else but what's the point, sooner or later she must say who she is dancing.
-w-w-well there is that person...ok girl i like, she is really pretty but very shy, just like me, and i don't...know i can say something to her you know, she isn't as popular as me but i really like her, but i don't know if she would like me back you know?- Jackie looked sadly at the floor playing with her fingers, meanwhile Star looked thoughtful, she is already thinking how to bring these two together, but first she must know who is she speaking of.
-Jackie girl, tell me her name, so i can help you with this problem, i will bring you two together no matter what- star grabbed her hand with sparkling eyes, Jackie was sceptical about her methods, many times when she tried to help someone he or she landed in hospital nut you live only once right?.
-well...her name is Maricel Diaz...you know…'the safe kid of Echo Creek? i liked her for the long time but i didn't had the courage to ask her out...and i'm not sure she is into girls...im scared she will not like me-Jackie looked sad and on the brink of crying, Star hugged her from her place where she sat on and tried to cheer up here's one of the best girls.
-KIDS COME HERE DOWNSTAIRS, STARS PARENTS INVITED US AND OTHERS FOR DINNER IN MEWNI- Jackie's father voice was heard in whole house, the girls quickly runned downstairs to see their friends Janna Ordonia, Tom Lucitor, Britney Wong, Alfonzo Dolittle, Britney Wong was very stuck up in herself bitch but, after something happened in her family she is cool now, she isn't as stuck up in herself as she was.
-mom, why are you suddenly offering dinner to others?- Star said with raised eyebrow with a questioning voice, she dont know why suddenly her mother wants others in her perfect castle, there must be something behind it.
-we wants to have closer relationship with others, is that bad?- Mewni Queen answered with calm voice and a small frown, Star stared at her mother for few seconds before she shook her head and did not answered, her father opened the portal and all of them walked through straight to dinner room, the parents and children sat at the table, all 17 people were sitting and chatted about everyday shenanigans until Britney spotted the same tapestry and gasped bringing attention of others.
-Star...my god, who is this hottie here- others who did not hear about King Marco looked at the tapestry with big eyes.
-oh...King Marco and Queen Eclipsa, the both of them were the best rulers Mewni had, not counting Helia of course, she was on an entirely different level, but why do we have the tapestry of them and not hers you ask? well, maybe for the fact that he wasn't from Mewni but from Earth, he got in Neverzone somehow and got transported here after he spent 8 years ther, he helped to protect the kingdom, he expanded it unlike other rulers, he was the fiercest warrior Mewni had, but the kindest to the whole Kingdom, when the both of them sat on the thrones, Eclipsa wanted to make peace with monsters, King marco wanted that too but...monsters didn't wanted peace, so after that MArco took everything in his hands, Eclipsa tried to persuade him to not going on path of onslaught and that everything can be resolved around peace, they must be just patient, but he still pursued his way of thinking that resulted in Mewni you see today...and that's why...Eclipsa don't want to walk out of her tower, while she got crystalized King Marco ruled as the only King, he couldn't do anything, the MHA decided that she needs to be crystalized, she was framed in something we don't know, even my wife dont know what that was, she is grieving after her husband, she visited his grave and closed herself in the tower the two of them liked to observe the night sky, we still don't know how she is coping with his death, the two of them were really close from the start 'the love at the first sight' everyone were telling, so you must think how much pain he was forced to endure, raising his children alone, as he promised he never laid eyes on another woman, that was the promise he made to her and he kept his word, his history is very tragic and painful so as his memorial we made this tapestry as the reminder and a big statue of him, his wife Eclipsa and his children, to remember that he wasn't just a simple King, no it was to remember that he was a father...and a husband- river said with solemn voice, everyone could hear sadness and grief lacing from it, Britney regretted asking about this now, the atmosphere in dining room dropped drastically.
-but not whole life of was miserable and sad, King Marco was known for his...weird eating habits...very often he ate a raw meat with honey, Eclipsa was amazed by this, no one ever dared to eat a raw meat, with honey nothenles, royal cooks didn't knew what to do in this kind of situation so they just gave him what he wanted, a few pounds of raw meat and honey, but he requested even more honey, he dipped the whole piece of meat in honey and ate it whole and licked his fingers after this, when i heard about this i tried to do the same, but...i kinda don't like this kind of food- River laughed nervously but his attempt to distraction seemed to work perfectly, everyone laughed at this, a person eating raw meat with honey, its weird and unheard of, the food was served and they started eating with hunger.
-but for now let's enjoy this beautiful day, we will show you after dinner what Mewni Empire has to offer- Queen Moon said with a smile, every person in room looked excited about visiting the place where human lived and bringing it into prosperity, such a shame Maricel couldn't join them but well, that's her loss not theirs, but no one saw as one person was walking through the hallways as fast as possible to be as far as she can from this place, painful memories flew through her head, she didn't knew what to do since her husband and childrens are dead, she should be dead to but the person who framed her wanted her to suffer that's for sure, she walked into her tower and locked herself once again for who knows how long
