A/N: Hello everyone from this fanfiction and I going to have a quick review what happened that day. Before the last exam in February 28, afternoon. I watched the Star vs The Forces of Evil Season 2 Finale; Face the Music/Starcrushed and I was surprised and excited at the same time because that Ruberiot unintentionally reveals to everyone, including Marco that Star secretly has a crush on Marco. That episode is so great that I have to scream three times in my room.
However in 'Starcrushed' episode, that shocked me the most since like WTF?! The Magic High Commission are supposed to be stronger than Toffee but he completely defeated them with ease, not even Moon can defeat him. Also, the final scene where Star leaves Marco after she confesses to him that she has a crush on him, that scene hurts my heart and my fucking soul after that.
But…. now I know Marco still hasn't pick whoever he likes more and Season 2 Finale is over, I finally decided to finish this story with no happy ending nor sad ending but a neutral one. I'll ask again when this chapter is over.
Chapter 7: Invasion of the MSF
Few minutes earlier…
Richard, his Vice-President DarkMoon and other SSC members are watching the screen in horror as they watch the entire MSF fleet pass the Starco West Island and their battleships are firing the Starco Port, damaging their ships in the process.
Richard, having seen enough, ordered. "SSC, I want to tell the SSA we are in a red alert and pool our forces at the bay to prevent the MSF going inland on our islands." They quickly composed themselves before heading back to their computers to contact the SSA for defense.
He wondered how they can get pass Starco West Island without detection. "That's impossible." Richard thought as he remember the day when their landed their first island. Once they build their own HQ, he sent his men to take control North, South, East and West islands to ensure no one is getting near the main island.
At first, he thought the MSF bribed the guards who stationed there. He highly doubt it, he assigned only the trustworthy and their loyalty to his and the starco fandom. He suspect there's an intruder here with the knowledge of this shipper war. His thoughts is interrupted by an explosion above.
Then he remembered Rachel, alone in his room and without anyone to protect her. He will find the intruder or traitor of starco later. Now he needed to find Rachel first in his room before she got hurt or worse.
He looked at DarkMoon. "DarkMoon, I leave you in charge to hold back against the MSF invaders and make sure our people is safe from harm."
The Vice-President noticed that their President is leaving, he asked. "Hey, where are you going Mr. President?"
He looked back to his Vice-President. "I need to make sure my guest is safe from harm, I'll be back soon."
Before DarkMoon could stop him, he exited to the blast doors just in time before the doors sealed shut automatically.
He got curious, the president didn't know he had a guest. Not to mention bringing a guest here in Starco HQ could endanger the security here.
Just then, another of the SSC member spoke behind him. "Sir, an incoming call coming from the east. It must be MiguelHazard and his team returning back from their mission."
DarkMoon is surprised, he thought that they would never coming back after they send some patrols. However, he needed to confirm if it is MiguelHazard or some prankster from the MSF or other shippers.
"Alright, contact whoever is calling for us." The SSC member obeyed and click the button to communicate the unknown person. Then a mere seconds later, MiguelHazard voice is heard though the speakers.
"I knew that boy would never die." DarkMoon smirked to himself, proud that his ally survived once again as MiguelHazard responded.
"Hello, hello. Does anyone copy me?"
Meanwhile, back at the upper level. Richard runs hastily as he dodges a falling debris on top of him after the attack. His thoughts about Rachel being captured by MSF and take her hostage to make the SSC surrender if they know about her connected to him.
He quickly shook this idea in his head but keeps it as a possibility in case if Rachel spoke about him.
After meeting with her again for the past 2 years and talking our adventures with each other is a reuniting for him. But if the MSF tries to hurt her, he will give them a punch that sends them back to their island.
Once he reached his room, he smiled to himself that no one entered yet and enters immediately. To his surprise, Rachel is nowhere to been seen and his things is left untouched.
He searched the entire room, even in his bathroom. He later realized that Rachel is gone after the attack and hope that she must in a safe place.
Before he left to search Rachel, his radio suddenly responded in a panicked voice. "Mr. President, we have a situation down here!"
Recognizing the voice from somewhere, Richard picks up his radio. "What is it, Number56? What happened down there?"
"The Dimensional Security Room is under attack by an intruder and we need backup before…No! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The call is suddenly cut after hearing a scuffle in the other side.
He puts his radio back in his belt. He wanted to find Rachel quickly, he wanted to. But after hearing that the Dimensional Security Room is under attack by an unknown intruder, he was shocked since the Dimensional Blocking Machine is to prevent any enemies from entering restricted areas such as their HQ.
Deciding that Rachel would have to wait, he gives a heavy sigh before heads to the Dimensional Security Room hastily. He would take care of the intruder quickly before going back finding his best friend again.
After MiguelHazard calls DarkMoon, they landed in the now-ruined park. They disembarked together and sees the destruction that the MSF has done. They find that all the buildings in this area damaged beyond repair, his SSA soldiers are lying in the ground beaten or dead and the Starco Statue in the middle of the fountain is destroyed.
The sight of the destruction makes MiguelHazard madder than the loss of Guest Sorta. He needed to finish the MSF here and now!
He looked at his second in command with an angry face. "Come mon, we need to regroup with our army at the Starco Beach before they break the defense."
Redblood spotted a hummer. "Look! We can take the Hummer instead. That way we can get to our army."
MiguelHazard gets to the driver seat while Redblood sits near him as MiguelHazard drives through the war-torn buildings and debris in the road.
Arriving at the Starco Beach, they made it just in time to see their SSA is holding back the incoming MSF invaders. Despite so many wounded in the battlefield, the remaining SSA soldiers are still fighting for their lives.
MiguelHazard worries that if the MSF somehow destroyed this last line of defense, the SSA would pull back to the city and lose the Starco Beach in the process.
However, MiguelHazard shows no doubt if MSF won the war and looks at Redblood. "Redblood, do you wish to run away like a coward or fight with me in the end?"
He shook his head. "No. do you know why?" He asked. "Because we are brothers and brothers stick together….in the end."
MiguelHazard was glad to hear those words from his friends and looks at the invading MSF in anger. "Let's aid our soldiers Redblood."
Redblood yelled. "YEAH!"
They soon joined the fight the MSF and shoot them with main guns. The SSA, who defended the Starco Beach, decides to aid their mighty leader with all their strength and some promise to beat the MSF even if they fail the defense.
In the MSF side, the MSF general notice MiguelHazard and Redblood are helping their armies for pushing back his troops. Soon after, he and his men near him watched in horror as MiguelHazard is using a mounted machine gun in the lifeguard tower while his second in command kills his MSF troops with two purple katana to prevent their troops from flaking the SSA.
Redblood slices the MSF troops in the waist, slicing in half. Their actions make the MSF general in fear. If they keep doing this, they would lose the beaches and push his invading troops back into the sea. He wanted his men to push but with many deaths in this pointless plan that their MSF main leader created, he needed to release their own weapon before this gets out of hand.
"Send the Armored Units now!" Roared to his MSF soldiers and they opened the hovercraft transport boat doors. Then, multiple MSF Armored Units exited the vehicle and started firing their machine guns. One of them destroyed the lifeguard tower that MiguelHazard was firing the MSF before he jumped in the sand safely while Redblood dodged the incoming machine gun bullets as he ran and manage to get cover from the wreckage of the MSF helicopter.
Suddenly, his radio started to ring and receives it. "Redblood, there are too many of them. I need a distraction to get a clear shot from those units."
"I'm on it MiguelHazard!" He hangs up and thought. 'I hope I won't die.' Then he gets out from his hiding place and runs to the advancing Armored Units as he equips his two katanas ready.
Back at the Starco HQ. The security guards who guarded the room are knocked unconscious while some are wounded and bleeding in the floor. One remaining security guard tries to get his weapon as he start to crawl slowly when the hooded person smashed his face with his/her foot. Making the security guard unconscious.
The hooded person, approaches the machine as he/she walks. Before he/she could walk another step, his/her watch is ringing and accepted the call. Then a person wearing a MSF uniform appears in a holographic form. "Is the beach secure DamionTheGreat?"
"Not yet, the SSA are keep defensing the Starco Beach but we will push through them in a couple of seconds."
"Good." He/she responded. "Keep fighting them as will get distracted for it, not knowing that I will disable the Dimensional Blocking Machine to get our rest the troops enter the base undetected and take over the Starco HQ by the time they notice."
"I hope so, I am sacrificing a lot of my men and I will not see my men died in vain in your so called "My greatest plan yet" Main Leader"
"Is that a threat?" said the Main Leader, not liking his/her subordinates harsh words.
"No. But don't fail the MSF like you fail your last invasion because of your relationship with the SSC President."
The hooded person pulled out his/her hood, revealing Rachel; The main leader of the MSF. "I don't want to fail this, not this time. But leave my best friend out of this, I will take care of him alone."
The MSF general bowed before his holographic form gone. She sighed. "Finally." She looked at the machine. "I just hope you will never see me like this."
Right after she said that, she heard a gun clicking behind her. She turns around, only see her best friend pointed at her with a semi-automatic shotgun 6 meters away from her. Also worst, her best friend now knows that she is the leader of the MSF.
At Richard side, he couldn't believe his eyes. After getting to the room, he found the guards who guarding the machine and the intruder standing, calling with someone.
He equipped his shotgun and slowly went to the intruder to ambush him/her. But he stopped when the intruder removed his/her hood, revealing a familiar yellow hair that similar to his best friend.
Then to his realized when he heard the conversation that a MSF general is talking the main leader of the MSF and worse of all, his best friend is the one who started the invasion and is the main leader.
Now, two best friends looked at each other with their mind ready to fight in case. "Why?" Richard asked. "Why you didn't tell me?"
Rachel looked down, not saying a word. Her silence makes Richard angry. "Why you didn't tell that you're the leader of the MSF, my enemy of all people?!"
Then she turns her gaze to Richard. "You really think I'm going to tell you who am I. I'm not that stupid you know. Do you remember that I leave you 2 years ago?"
Richard remember that on the day before, she left without saying a word after he said about he is a fan of Starco after watching…
"Wait…" He finally understood what Rachel left him. "After I admitted to you that I love Starco and Star and Marco should be together, you left me because…"
"Because I am a fan of Mackie!" Rachel interrupted, surprising him. "That's right. When we met at the park that day, I was about to tell that I watched Star vs The Forces of Evil and I am a Mackie Fan but you choose Starco after you said to me. Because of that, I left you without even explaining myself and I don't want us to be broken apart just because of some ship!"
He raised his left eyebrow, confused. "What are you talking about?"
Instead of an answer, she runs to the machine, intending to deactivate it. Richard reloads his shotgun and started to fire but he realizes he can't. So he runs after her and shouted. "No wait!"
But it was too late, she reached the machine and pulled the lever. The machine that kept the use of the dimensional scissors is shut down in a humming sound. Soon after the machine is shut down, several portal were suddenly opened in both sides and MSF soldiers were pouring out of the portals.
Once all the MSF soldiers are inside, they pointed their weapons at the President of Starco after they recognize the Starco 'leader' who controls both the SSA and SSC but they halted by Rachel. "Give it up Richard, you and your SSC and SSA both will not win this war. It's too risky."
"Screw you!" Richard retorted. "I can't believe this! First, you lied to me that you're the Mackie's main leader and second, you let your 'Mackie Shipper Forces' pointed their rifles to me. What kind of a friend does that?!"
Rachel gasped, didn't expect that her best friend would say something like this. "I only wanted to do is to make this war over by destroying all Starco Fans but you have to show up and be the president of all Starco Shipper Community for goodness sake! I just want this to be over and return to our old lives."
"All around the world has been shipping Star and Marco since the arrival of the first episode of Star vs The Forces of Evil." Richard replied. "Even you win this war and return back to the way it was, we would be different by then because we have the different ships."
He extends his hand to her. "You can't win this war, come with me and both of us will work together on this. Please…"
Rachel almost pulled out her hand to reach his own when she remembers the MSF general about their relationship and risk. She decided to hide back her hand before shaking her head as a 'no'. "Sorry Richard, I don't. My duty is to support the Mackie ship and besides, there's 30 of us and there's only you."
"The President never fights alone!" Suddenly, three portals behind Richard opens up and more SSA soldiers are pouring out, including MiguelHazard and Redblood. As soon as they entered, they pointed their weapons at the MSF who they turned their weapons to the arriving SSA.
Rachel was surprised by this unexpected arrival of the two founding leaders of the SSA; MiguelHazard and Redblood with the SSA behind their backs. "How…how you two manage to destroy my invading MSF at the Starco Beach?!"
"Once we finished your Armored Units a while ago when we receive by our Vice-President that Richard is going after the intruder who stopped the machine that preventing the use of a dimensional scissors." explained MiguelHazard. "I didn't think that the MSF's main leader would bold enough to infiltrate our HQ and shut down our dimensional block machine."
"Not to mention that their leader is a girl." added Redblood.
"Face it Rachel, you all lost this war of yours." Richard steps a little. "Surrender now and we will spare your lives after we send you back where you came from."
Rachel shook her head. "Like you, I will never surrender until the creator of the Star vs The Forces of Evil choose which one who likes the ship the most." Rachel raises her right hand up. "Men, let's take them…"
Before they were about the battle, Rachel's watch begins to ring and clicks it. Then an MSF leader in a holographic form appears with fear in her eyes. Noticing this, she asked. "What is it? Can't you see I'm in a middle of…."
But the MSF leader interrupted her. "Main Leader, we have a situational of our islands. The Starco-controlled islands are attacking our defenseless islands."
"What!" She shouted. "Impossible, how?!"
"While you and the MSF fleet are busy fighting the SSC and the SSA, the two episodes of Star vs The Forces of Evil was released 2 days and after that, they launched the attack on our islands and taken 12 islands as we speak." Explained the MSF leader. "Main Leader, we need you and your army back right here now or else we have no more islands left!"
She groaned. "Fine! We will be there in a second." She hangs up in her MSF leader and gazed angrily at the SSA before saying. "Men let's retreat for now, we got an islands to defend."
"But what about…"
"Never mind about them or that general." Interrupted Rachel. "We will leave them…for now." With great hesitant, they quickly opened a gray portals and went through inside. As her men leaves in the gray portals one by one, she gazed at her now former best friend with regret and sadness in her face. Richard in turn, shows his face with frowned but with a sad face like his former best friend.
Once her last of her MSF soldiers left, she ready to enter the portal but not before saying to Richard one final time.
"This war….It's not worth our whole lives."
Then she entered quickly as the gray portal closes, leaving MiguelHazard, Redblood, Richard and their SSA troops alone.
Shortly after the MSF invasion, the SSA found out why the MSF fled is because the "Face the Music" episode that guitar guy confesses that Star is secretly has a crush on Marco, making the Starco Fans got riot with excitement and joy so much that the entire Starco fandom was in chaos including Devianart, Tumblr, Fanfiction, Youtube and more.
Because of that episode, most of the Starco-controlled islands launched an attack on Mackie-controlled islands while we kept busy with the entire MSF fleet on our island. When they found out, they retreated back but by the time they returned, 17 islands is taken by the Starco-controlled islands.
In the Season 2 Finale episode "Starcrushed", the MSF tries to take back their islands but with the combined forces of SSA, SSC, Starco-controlled islands, and Tanna (A ship between Tom and Janna) successfully defended the islands and took 20 islands of Mackie-controlled islands.
At the near end of the episode, Star confesses Marco that she has a crush on him, making the Starco Fans excited and wanted to continue the war but to their horror, Star is leaving earth, possibly forever. Star's farewell words strikes the hearts of many fans of Starco and halted the war, thus saving the MSF at the same time until the next season arrives.
After the "Starcrushed" episode, 65 islands left for the SSA and SSC, 15 islands left for the MSF, 7 islands to Janco Shippers after the Tanna Shippers attacked and took their 4 islands and 9 islands left by the Tomco Shippers.
Few weeks later, after the second war is halted. Richard was standing in the balcony in his room, pondering about Rachel's words to him.
"This war….It's not worth our whole lives."
Richard sighed. 'What does that mean 'Not worth our whole lives'? Is our friendship is at risk because of some ship?' He thought about that meaning but all he got is nothing, maybe he would get his answer during or after this shipper war. He was broken by his thoughts when MiguelHazard entered the room with only a swimming trunks and snorkel in his head.
"Hey, the SSA members said that we should get some vacation after that war and maybe some….Hey are you alright?" He asked the president what was wrong.
Richard turn around and gazed at MiguelHazard. "It's nothing MiguelHazard, it's just… I don't know. Before my best friend left me, she said that 'this war…. It's not worth our whole lives' and even for me. I don't know what that means but I going to search for that answer and find Rachel to fix our relationship.
MiguelHazard remember that after the Main Leader of the MSF left with her troops behind her. Richard explained to us that the Main Leader was his best friend and his only childhood friend. He, Redblood, and some of my SSA behind us was shocked by this revelation and questioned him if he is the spy but he denies it and said to us that he didn't know his best friend was the main leader until he met her trying to disable the machine that preventing the use of dimensional scissors like in the SVTFOE series.
Luckily for him, we all believed him and we knew without him, all of the Starco fandom would fall and SSC would crumble without his leadership.
MiguelHazard goes near him and say. "I know that she is your best friend and all but don't let it distract you, we still have a war going on." He puts his hands to Richard's shoulder. "Don't lose hope yet, you can still convince her that Starco is better than Mackie."
Richard thought that is the reason why they are separated in the first place and fight each other in this war in the process. But he doesn't want to admit it to MiguelHazard, he would hurt his sprit if he do.
"Maybe…but not now." He turns his head around, smiling. "Come Mon, our summer vacation will start soon. Let's eat, I'm starving. My favorite restaurant is in the couple of islands away."
As they are leaving the room, they know that MSF would never stop fighting and believing in Mackie. However, their Mackie–controlled islands are down to fifteen and soon will gone if Star and Marco release the 'bomb' in the upcoming season 3 or 4. But MiguelHazard will not stop until the all shippers would realize that Starco is the true shipper in this world.
Then, MiguelHazard thought about Guest Sorta. 'Don't worry Guest Sorta, we will never stop fighting your favorite ship. Somewhere out there, I will find you even I have search the entire islands.'
Somewhere in the ocean, an unconscious Guest Sorta is holding a coconut tree as it moves towards the fog. Then, her eyes began to move slowly but slightly opened. She looked at her surroundings before knowing that she is in the ocean, alone.
"Where...am I?"
A/N: Yes! Finally I have finished this story, thank God! I would have finish this before my exam in March 16 (Which I finished it 2 days earlier) if I didn't watch the "Face and Music" and "Starcrushed", even I have to listen at the awesome song that Fall Out Boy created. The song's name is called "The Ballad of Star Butterfly", Wow I have to admit it that Disney is a pure genius to pick Fall Out Boy, my favorite band.
I wanted to create a battle scene where MiguelHazard and Redblood fight the Armored Units and Richard and Rachel fighting. But because in the haste of finishing the story, I decided to end it and I can barely make a battle scene, I'm worst at making it like all the fanfiction members out there and originally, the last scene where the aftermath of the battle was going to be chapter 8 until I decided to merge the last two chapters into one.
Also, this is my first fanfiction story completed, even it is a community story about two shippers from Star vs The Forces of Evil war with each other that who will be the best shipper in the series.
To be honest, I didn't think season 4 would come. It just appeared after the season 2 finale, it was quite surprising huh? Because of that, I don't know if I am going to make a third sequel after the second since I originally want this to end after season 3 finale (Which I thought is the season finale) but let the future decide if I am going to make the third sequel or not.
Good news! My 4th quarter final exam is now over. That's right! Which means that I have more time for you upcoming stories (After practicing for graduation that is).
Anyway, this story is now officially over and maybe the second sequel would appear after season 3 is open. Thank you for reading "The Shipper Wars" and see you all soon!
