Hey guys! I'm back! And I just want to let you all know beforehand is that I am currently a Senior in high school, and I currently already have a lot of shit on my plate. I have to deal with scholarships, an online class (that i figured out i don't need), and getting ready for college. So if I dont update regularly, just know that im a busy and stressed child and that I'll try and not forget about this story and that I'll update soon.
Thanks and enjoy! Don't forget to review!
"Hey, I'm back with the sodas!" I shouted as I used my foot to close the door behind me, holding a bag of two liter bottles of soda, "Are the nachos ready yet?" I asked. For a second, there was no response, then I heard a loud, girly-ish scream come from the kitchen. I easily recognized who it came from.
"Marco!" I shouted and ran to the kitchen as fast as I could, "What's-uhhh," I trailed off as I entered the kitchen, not knowing exactly what I was looking at. It looked like a floating decapitated head of a unicorn was outside the backdoor, and Marco was laying on the ground, covered with nachos.
"FLYING PRINCESS PONY HEAD!" Star shouted.
"Oh, hello, B-Fly!" the head said back and then they embraced in a hug. I slowly set the bags of soda down on the ground and walked closer, not sure of what to say.
"Gurl!" started the pony, "We're going out tonight! Are you ready to make some ba-a-a-a-d choices?"
"Let me just get Tessa and wake up Marco," Star said, pointing at us.
"Oh, that is not a dead person?" the pony asked as we all looked down at Marco's cheese and chip covered body.
"Not. Dead." he moaned back, raising up a finger at us.
"Marco, are you ok?" I asked as I knelt down and helped him up. He nodded, but had a dazed look on his face. Star reached over and grabbed our hands and pulled us closer to the floating head.
"Pony Head, meet by best friends: Marco and Tessa Diaz," she said, holding our hands up and making us wave them at Pony Head.
"Your best friends?" Pony Head asked with a hurt and confused look on her face. I frowned and quickly tore my hand from Star's grip, knowing how it felt to be friends with someone one day, then to be replaced with someone else the next.
"Huh?" Star asked, looking at the both of us and then back up at Pony Head, "Oh, no no no! On Earth! You're my best friend on Mewni! Marco, Tessa!" she turned to us, "This is the pony head that I was telling you guys about!"
Pony Head quickly drew closer to us, snorting in our face. , "I hate your faces, plus you're ugly!" she said, then giggled. I raised an eyebrow, suddenly not wanting to e any closer to this pony than I had to be, "Just kidding, that's a joke!" she laughed, but still gave us a dirty look. My face flared hot at these words, and I quickly stood up closer to Pony Head.
"Ok, let's get one thing straight," I said, crossing my arms, "I don't care if we become strangers, friends, or even acquaintances. But if there is one thing in this world I can not stand it's when someone says something to me or anybody else that's downgrading and then write it off simply as a joke. That has happened to me too many times to count and I will not stand for it. Got it?"
"Uh, yeah, sure," Pony head said with a scared look on her face. But her frown quickly changed to a smirk, "And I thought you were going to be boring. You're alright!"
"Uh, thanks?" I replied, stuffing my hands into my pockets.
"Tic toc girl," Pony said, flying over to Star, "Let's Par-Tay!"
"Yeah, Marco," Star said, grabbing his hand, "Let's Par-Tay!"
"Wi-with her? Um, ok well I was going to- but I-I was gonna-" he paused when Star gave him a puppy-eyed look, folding her hands in front of her, "Eh, alright," Marco smiled, pulling a chip off of his hoodie and ate it.
Star smiled and pulled all four of us together into a hug, "My three besties are gonna be besties!" she shouted. I looked over at Pony Head, noticing a frown on her face. She quickly pulled out of Star's hug and gave her a smile.
"Sweet! Let's go! BLEHH!" she said, opening her mouth to reveal a pair of pink scissors on her tongue.
Star gasped, "Dimensional scissors! AHHH! Jealous!" she screeched, making a grabbing motion at the scissors. Pony Head the turned around and cut the scissors in the air, a swirling pink vortex appearing where she cut.
"Wait, we're going to another dimens-" but was quckly cut off when Star grabbed both of our hands and pulled us in, yelling "Come on!" as we went.
I suddenly felt myself falling and I quickly closed my eyes, but opened them when I felt myself land on what looked like a fluffy couch cloud. Star and Pony head laughed as they both landed on a couch cloud next to me. But instead of landing on a couch, Marco smacking into the floor. I winced at the sound the impact made.
"Marco, are you ok?" I asked. He groaned and looked up. I looked up too and gaped at the sight before me. There were different people and creatures dancing and eating all around us, and there were a pair of robots controlling the music.
"Where are we?" I asked Star. Marco stood up and started to walk around.
"The bounce lounge!" she said, leaning back into her seat, "My favorite place to cheeeeeeil. Just, stay away from the edge."
At that moment I heard Marco scream and I quickly looked over at him, seeing him teetering on the edge of the dance floor.
"Marco!" I shouted as I ran to him, but Star got to him first.
"You guys! Photo Booth! Photo Booth!" she shouted, throwing him into the machine with Pony Head and then grabbed my hand, "Come on!" she said and yanked me in.
I found myself smiling as I looked down at the photos that we took together.
"Wow, these are great," I said.
"Now, just you too," said Star, pointing at Marco and Pony Head, "A souvenir of the day my besties became besties! Yay!" she sang, grabbing my hand and pulling me away, "You can go with her next! Now let's go party on the dance floor!" she shouted, pulling me along. I quickly stuffed the photos into my pocket.
"Uh, I'm not really a dancing person." I said nervously.
"Nonsense! You'll be great! Come on!" she grinned as she pulled me to the middle of the floor. Star immediately started dancing, throwing her hands into the air and bobbing her head with the music.
"Really, Star," I mumbled, "I'm not a good dancer."
"You don't have to be good!" she laughed, "Just do what feels good!" I chuckled but shook my head. She frowned at me, but then grabbed my arms, forcing me to dance along with her. I rolled my eyes, but gave in.
"Later!" I heard Pony Head yell. I looked over at the photo booth and saw her leave and start to head over to us.
"Hey, Pony!" Star greeted, and Pony Head immediately started to dance with us.
"Star," Marco said, running over to her, "I need to talk to you-" he was cut off when Star grabbed his hands and started to spin them both in a circle. I smirked and stopped dancing, deciding to look around me for a moment.
"Marco! Be careful!" I heard Star say, and I looked over to see Star pull Marco up and over the edge of the dance floor.
"Um, what happened?" I asked s I walked up to them, "Why were you over the edge?"
"Pony Head just tried to shove me off this cloud!"
"Oh, nooo!" Star grinned, waving her hand, "She just get's a little wild when she dances!" We looked over to see Pony head intensely dancing with someone else, almost riding him as if he was a horse.
"Oh, yes!" she shouted, "Oh, you like that! You know you do! You love it!" the person she was 'dancing with' had a scared look on his face.
Marco turned back to Star, "She also threatened to skewer me in the Photo Booth!"
Star's eyes and mouth widened at this. She looked at the ground and clasped her hands together, "Yeaah," she said guiltily, "She can be...possessive." Star turned around towards Pony Head, "Pony Head! Let's go to the Amethyst Arcade! Marco and Tessa will have more fun there!"
"No. Way. Girl. I'm. Getting. My. Dance. On." said Pony Head as she bounced up and down on the back of her dance partner. I rolled my eyes and looked over at Marco.
"Hey, are you ok?" I asked. Marco opened his mouth to answer, but was interrupted by Pony Head.
"Yes, you are right Star they'll like the arcade better LET'S GO," she rushed, opening up a portal with her scissors and flying in.
"She's warming up to you!" Star sang as she jumped up and down, then shoved us both in.
"Holy Pixels!" Marco said in awe as he looked around us, "So many VIDEO GAMES!" I smiled and rolled my eyes at him. He was in his element.
"Yes, I knew you'd like it. This place is full of squares," replied Pony Head, looking around at all of the square shaped people.
"Ehhh!" they all responded back.
"Look!" shouted Star, pointing at a game with a large screen, and two platforms with arrows, "Lance-Lance Revolution! You too, go! Play!" she grinned, showing Marco and Pony head towards the game.
"PONY. HEAD. VERSUS. EARTH. TURD." the game called as Marco and Pony Head were set up and ready to play.
"Hey!" Marco complained.
"ROUND. ONE. JOUST!"
Marco and Pony Head immediately started jousting, grunting and huffing as they tried to beat each other.
"You're going down, downer!" said Pony with her jousting stick in her mouth.
"Oh, yeah? Well, your mother's a horse!" replied Marco. I rolled my eyes at his lame attempt at a comeback.
"Uh, ok, and your point would be?"
"Oh, look at you too!" said Star, putting her hands on their back, "Getting along!"
Star quickly pulled away at the touch of their sweaty backs, "Ew!" she cried, "Ooh! I'll go get us some nice cold icicles to put of your disgusting sweaty backs!" she said as she left.
Suddenly, Pony Head stopped jousting and dropped her jousting stick, losing the game.
"Ha ha! Who's the turd now?" Marco said happily as the game tooted with happy music.
"Still you!" Pony head shouted as she turned and left.
I smiled as I walked up onto the platform, "I guess it's my turn, then." I picked up the lance and got into a fighting stance.
"READY. SET. JOUST!"
"FINISH. HIM." shouted the game as my character was on his knees. Marco thrust his lance forward, killing me.
"YOU. WIN."
"HA!" shouted Marco as he threw his hands into the air, "Did you see that, Star?" Marco turned around, ready to tell Pony Head off, "Beat that, Pointy Head!"
But she wasn't there. And neither was Star.
"Star?" I asked as I looked around, stepping closer to Marco.
"Pointy Head?" Marco asked. I gasped when I felt someone put their hand on my shoulder, and Marco and I looked up at three very tall and extremely angry men. I paled at how tall and large they all were.
"Where's Princess Pony Head?" the one gripping my shoulder asked.
"Uh, she should be around here somewhere," I chuckled nervously and shook his hand off of me, "Now, if you'll excuse us, we'll just be going now." I said, grabbing Marco's arm, getting ready to make a run for it.
"You're not going anywhere," the man said, grabbing my arm. Another grabbed Marco.
"Hey!" I shouted as they pulled us away and over to a pair of chairs, "Let us go!" They slammed us down and tied us down, and shined a bright light in our faces.
"For the last time, where is she?"
"We told you! We don't know!" Marco cried as I glared at the men holding us captive.
"Not talking, eh? What if I do- THIS!" he shouted, turning the lamp he was holding on and off. I winced and closed my eyes.
"STOOOOOP! That's really annoying!"
"What about you, huh?" he asked, putting down the lamp and leaning down at my level, "Do you have anything to say?" I glared at him and spit in his face.
"Argg!" he shouted as he stumbled back, wiping his face, "Why you little-"
"OH, HEY CREEPS!" somebody shouted at us. Everybody turned around, only to see Pony Head off in the distance, "I heard you're lookin' to ride with a pony! So come and get me!"
The men growled and ran at her. Pony Head neighed and flew away. I sighed in relief.
"Come on, Marco. We need to get free," I said, struggling to pull my arm out of the ropes.
"Ha!" Marco shouted as he pulled an arm free.
"Stand back, you guys!" Star shouted, suddenly at our sides.
"No! It's ok! My hand is free-"
"Shiny Emerald SNAKE STRIKE!" Star yelled, pointing her wand at us.
'SNAKES?' I screamed in my mind and quickly closed my eyes, afraid to open them when I heard hissing.
"You guys! Stop playing around!" Star said and I felt her grab my shirt and pull me away, "We need to find Pony Head!"
I looked around as we ran, "Don't see her!" I shouted, "But I can hear her!" and sure enough, you could hear the laughing of the head in question off in the distance, along with explosions.
"Look out!" Marco gasped, pointing up at the crystals above our heads as beams of light burst out of them, blowing up video games right and left as we ran.
"Hahahaa!" we heard Pony Head laugh, then there was a thud.
"Look!" shouted Star, pointing at the crumpled heap of Princess Pony Head. The angry men stepped up to her.
"Back off, creeps!" Star shouted as we jumped in front of Pony Head.
"Don't worry Pony Head. We got your back. Of your head," said Marco. Pony Head smiled up at us, and quickly jumped up to join us in our fight. And just as we were about to go hard, a voice boomed over us.
"TIME TO GIVE IT UP, CUPCAKE."
"Is that King Pony Head?" asked Star. I gasped as a massive floating pony head appeared behind the men, his hair wild and wearing a crown upon his head.
"Oh, hullo daddy," moaned Pony Head.
"Hello, princess." he greeted.
"What is he doing here?" Star whispered.
"Oh, B-Fly. It's the end of the line for me. But at least I had one last night of fun with you, girl."
"One last night? Before what?"
"Before this," Pony Head took in a huge gulp of air, "I'M GOIN' TO ST O'S!"
Star gasped, "NOT SAINT OLGA'S REFORM SCHOOL FOR WAYWARD PRINCESSES!"
"Oh, it's true, I did it to myself. I'm headed to the slammer!" cried Pony Head.
"It's reform school, cupcake, not jail," said King Pony Head, "Although, admittedly, it is a lot like jail."
"Oh, Pony Head!" awed Star, "You knew you'd get sent to St Olga's, but you still came back to save Tessa and Marco!"
"Oh, well, you know. It's hard to say it but they are your other besties, ok I said it." Pony Head mumbled.
"OHH! Come here!" shouted Star.
"HUGS!" they both said as they embraced each other. Star reached over and grabbed Marco and I and pulled us into the hug too.
"Alright, princess," one of the angry men said, holding a collar, "Time to go."
"Bye Pony!" shouted Star, "I'm going to miss you!"
"Hey, Pony Head," said Marco. Pony Head looked up at him with a sad look on her face, "Good luck in Princess Jail."
"Aww. Thanks Earth T- I mean, thank you, Marco," she said as she was pulled closer to the portal, "But don't worry about me! NO JAIL CAN HOLD ON TO ME FOR LONG! AHAHAHAHAAA!" and then she disappeared into the portal.
King Pony Head sighed, "Ah, kids. You have them and then you wish they weren't around," he said as he turned and went through the portal.
"Yay!" said Star, "My besties are besties!"
"I wouldn't call it that," I said.
"Yeah, I wouldn't go that far. WAIT! WE'RE STUCK IN ANOTHER DIMENSION!"
"Oh no we're not!" sang Star, "BLEH!" she mimicked, pulling Pony Head's scissors from behind her back.
"Woah!" Marco awed.
"Now, we can go anywhere we want!" spoke Star.
"I know just the place."
I smiled as I held the bowl of nachos in my lap, all three of us putting our hand in and shoving the chips into our mouth. We all turned to each other and smiled then turned back to the TV screen.
Marco was right. Home is the best place to be.
Yay! Another chapter! I hoped you all liked it! I spent all afternoon working on this rather than a scholarship, but whatever. I can worry about that later.
Anyways, I hoped you all liked it. Please review, and I'll see you all next time!
