When it was 11:30, Marco started to get ready, he grabbed a bag that was sitting in the corner, he went back into the living room, to find Star fast asleep.
Marco smiled and realized how calm Star looked when she was sleeping, because when she is awake she is so energetic and kind.
Marco shook her to find that she wouldn't get up. He saw a glass of water, on the table he could only just reach it, he picked it up, and threw the water on Star's face.
"Gahhh" yelled Star, as she was splashed with water, "What was that for?" yelled Star.
"You wouldn't get up, Come one Star we have to go" said Marco, Star got up and followed Marco, annoyed that she was now wet.
They walked back through town everyone was still asleep,the clock struck 1:00
The Spirits came out of the entrance right on time, Marco and Star dashed to a nearby bush and waited for the last of the spirits to come out of the entrance.
When the last spirit came out Marco rushed towards it, the spirit looked at him, then Marco told Star to follow, the spirit rushed them through the entrance, and hid them in a nearby cave.
"Wait for them to come back, everyone is asleep during the day so that is your best bet, good luck" said the Spirit.
"Thank you so much" said Star "Anytime" said the Spirit.
"I like this one, she is pure" said the spirit before flying off to join the rest of the spirits.
"What does she mean" said Star "Umm… nothing… nothing at all" said Marco.
"It's day" said Marco "don't change the subject" said Star putting her hands on her hips.
"Come on we have to go" said Marco as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the cave.
The Darklands were a strange place, all the trees were rotting and the grass up to Star's waist.
The only light was a spec of purple light coming from the tower on top of a hill in middle of the Darklands.
"Do you know where we are going" said Star "Sort of, I just know I have to follow the light" said Marco, Day turned into Night and Marco and Star set up camp in a tree.
Star heard a rustling noise, "Marco, did you hear that?" asked Star picking up a nearby branch, and walking over to where she heard the noise.
She pushed the bush out of the way and got ready to attack, when she heard a familiar voice "Wait Star stop".
"Nick? What are you doing here?" said Star dropping the stick and helping Nick up.
"I was just...I was worried about you ok" said Nick grabbing Star's shoulder, and then moving one hand to touch her cheek.
"Well, you don't need to, I am fine and can look after myself thanks" answered Star flicking his hand off her cheek.
Star walked back over to Marco, who was poking the fire, "So Prince Charming come to save you?" asked Marco not looking up from what he was doing.
"Oh shut up Marco" Star said as she sat down next to him, "He's not staying is he?" asked Marco looking up from the fire and scowling at Nick.
"He has is because we have no choice he can't travel alone at night!" argued Star, "I just don't trust him" said Marco getting up and lying down on his blanket.
"I guess we should get to bed" said Star getting up, "But what about me?" asked Nick getting up to put his hand on Star's shoulder.
"Hopefully the ground is comfortable".
Star woke up during the night to strange voices, she look over to see Nick struggling in his sleep.
"Must follow...Purple light...Bring….To him…...Let them go… muttered Nick.
Star looked over to Nick, and moved closer to Marco before falling back asleep.
Star, Marco and Nick walked through the dead trees and swamp. They were silent. "Where you having a bad dream" asked Star looking over to Nick.
"Yeah, I really don't like this place" replied Nick, "What was it about" Asked Marco.
"I don't really remember" said Nick,"Well you were talking in your sleep" said Star.
Nick didn't answer, "Nick" yelled out Star. Suddenly she felt a great pain in her head she felt dizzy, she saw Marco struggling with someone before he fell, then everything went Black .
