Star's Keyblade4114: Yes, they know, but they want me to wrap this story up soon. Besides, Eclipsa isn't going to go down without a fight.
Enjoy the next chapter.
Star and Marco sat in their room and looked down at their daughter as they slightly smiled, "Daddy's sorry he almost hurt you Nova, but daddy didn't know what he was doing," Marco smirked and stroked Nova's cheek.
Star sighed and looked at her husband with a small frown, "Honey?" Marco looked at Star in confusion and Star sighed, "Can you reconsider this? What will killing them prove?"
"Like I said, it'll teach people that they can't get away with this, no matter who they are," Star frowned and Marco took a deep breath, "I explained it to you when we were in the holding cells. I'm sorry it has go this way, but my parents and Eclipsa are a threat to you and Nova, and as a creature that is territorial and will do anything to protect their pack, both venoms are telling me to wait until nightfall and kill them."
Star sighed and Marco wrapped an arm around her and kissed her temple, "I know you want to have them imprisoned, honey. I do too…or at least, this me does, while the venoms want to tear them apart limb from limb as they cry out for mercy."
"Just…try not to take too much enjoyment out of this. My parents are comfortable with their daughter being married to a monster and their granddaughter being a hybrid, but I don't think they'll hesitate to throw you back in the holding cells if they see you taking enjoyment out of killing them,"
"Killing who," the two looked up and Marco's eyes narrowed as they flashed and he growled when he saw his parents stepping into the room, "Who are you going to kill, hijo?"
Marco stood up and glared at his parents as Star frowned at her husband and held her daughter close, "Odion!" the two looked back and saw a guard standing behind them, "Odion, I am sorry I killed your brother Zabodo, but understand it was not my doing," Odion glared at the hybrid, "I need you to escort my parents down into the holding cells, I will deal with them and Eclipsa once night comes,"
"And why should I listen to the creature that took my brother from me?"
"Odion," Star stood up and frowned, "My husband had no control of his actions that night, he was under the influence of a potion crafted by Eclipsa and his parents. You know he wouldn't hurt a flea. He may not say it, but my husband cares for everyone in the castle," Odion glared down at Marco's parents, "Please…take them to the holding cells and my husband will deal with them when the time comes."
"Of course, Princess Star," Odion grabbed Angie and Rafael by their arms and pulled them out of the room and led them down the corridor.
Marco sighed and ran his fingers through his hair, "Honey, why did you have to go and say I care for everyone in the castle?"
"Because you know it's true, and while the only ones in the castle that care for you are me, Nova and my parents…and believe it or not, Odion is the only guard here that sees you as a little brother,"
"Don't be absurd Estrella, I'm sure Odion wants to kill me more than any of the other guards after I killed Zabodo,"
"If that were the case, don't you think he would've killed Nova the night I asked him to watch her?" Marco growled and looked away, "He didn't, not only because he knows he'll lose his life, but because Nova is our daughter and he doesn't want to hurt either one of us,"
Marco sighed and Star softly smiled as she held Nova out towards him, "Why don't you hold Nova for a while? I'm sure she missed you while you were in the holding cells,"
Marco frowned and nodded before taking his daughter from his wife and smiled down at her, "Hey sweetheart. You know daddy missed you and mommy while he was in the cells. I would've came to visit you two, but I had no idea what was going on." Nova lightly whimpered as her blue eyes scanned her father's face and Marco sighed and shook his head, "Daddy's sorry he almost hurt you, sweetheart, but daddy wasn't himself,"
"Honey, she's going to be frightened, but after some time passes she'll forget and everything will go back to normal,"
"I know, love, and I can't blame Nova for being afraid, but her instincts should tell her that I wouldn't harm her or you,"
"I know, but just give her some time, she was frightened when you tried to hurt her and she was frightened when you weren't here last night to help with her transformation," Marco frowned and Star leaned closer to him and kissed his cheek as they looked down at the slightly whimpering infant.
Odion opened the cell door and tossed Angie and Rafael into the cell and crossed his arms, "So you two and the queen of darkness are the reasons my brother is gone. I don't know why you'd set your own son up and have him attack your granddaughter, but whatever he has planned for you three, I hope he's merciless,"
"Please sir, we didn't want any part of that. We just wanted to get the princess away from him and it went wrong and now we just want to get back to earth,"
"The princess made it quite clear that her husband will deal with you two and Eclipsa when the time comes, and as I said, I hope he's merciless to you three," closing the cell door, Odion turned and walked out of the dungeons, leaving the two frightened in the cell.
I originally wasn't going to post anything today because of the holiday and I was out late with my friends last night. I'm also going to extend this story a few extra chapters. I hope everyone is enjoying the new year.
Please enjoy everyone and please let me know what everyone thinks.
