Wow, it's been a while since I updated this. Well I'm back! Sorry for the delay but I've had to work a little more than usual, hopefully this continuation of MaFx98's request will make up for it!
To the reviews!
Exotos135: The shout out was no problem, and thanks for the explanation.
GodLegend: Of course we'd have more to watch, the show recently confirmed a season 3! How awesome is that!?
Guest#1: You are correct! Have a brofist!
FalconPuncher: Yeah, the plot was supposed to have a thing about Star trying to pin the whole Troll transformation thing from Match Maker on Marco and students showing remorse for Marco and hatred for Star.
Power Master Story Writer: Glad you thought so! I personally have a ton of fun writing those song fics and it really means a lot when you guys say all these positive things about them!
Harrison2901: No they did not.
Guest#2: That's perfectly fine, I respect your opinion and I hope you stick around, even if there are some chapters you don't like.
Ghemm: I'd like to personally say that your review has outright pissed me the hell off. It's not what you said, but it's more the fact that you decided to express your opinion in a place you hate, in a review section where people are supposed to provide criticism and give feedback. But you have given the middle finger to that and decided to pick on me specifically for this. That's not cool, it's a dick move. You don't have the right to come here and insult me, or other people, just because we don't like the same things you do. So I think it's best you stay the fuck away from me, and anyone else you want to pick on. Good-fucking-day to you.
Anonymims: I'm gonna take that Angst Star but as a request, get ready to see that later! Sorry if you don't like Jarco, but I gotta keep things a little diverse in this series.
The Kyle Lifestyle: Who's this handsome devil?
HotXbun: Yes I do…. What exactly?
MaFx98: The hate is not a problem. I really enjoyed writing that oneshot and if other people didn't like it, then they can just build a bridge and get over it. I'm glad I didn't use the talent show thing too, it's pretty cliché. I really liked the sing too, I even put it on my playlist! Read you!
Dawnplaya: Thank you! I love all the support your giving! It's makes me feel all fuzzy and warm!
Knucklehead: First off, great name. Secondly, the continuation will be coming soon! I just need a plot idea…
EVAunit42: Ladies and gentlemen, a legend has set foot on the terrain of my oneshot series! I'm glad you enjoyed bro, it was still tins of fun making that oneshot and I hope I can make more song based chapters in the future. Don't worry about reviews, I just hope you can keep life under control, since it shouldn't really be able to tackle you. Thanks for the support! Stay awesome Brochacho!
Wow, I think that's a new record for reviews per chapter! Thanks a ton guys and gals!
Alright, so before we begin, I want to ask you guys something. If you had to choose between two AU's, which would you like to see next, Either A) A Custom Robo AU, or B) A continuation of the Maze Runner one-shot from chapter 8.
Please submit your answers in the reviews or through PM and I will have that AU chapter posted later on. Now to the chapter.
Marco remained perfectly still, his eyes wide as saucers and a panic rushing through his body. It was one thing that he was underneath Stars bed, but what made it worse was the fact that he had been there while she was getting dressed. Jumping off a cliff didn't seem so bad right then, since he had been spotted and now had been confronted by his best friend, leaving him in a very… very awkward situation.
A nervous smile creeped onto his face and he nervously rubbed the back of his head, his eyes incredibly fearful as he lightly chuckled. "H-hey, Star… What a coincidence bumping into you here… in your room…" Star squinted her eyes and shifted her mouth to one side of her face, letting out a small hum. "Would you mind stepping out from under my bed for a moment." She asked, a little frustration in her tone. Marco laughed again, avoiding eye-contact as his cheeks pooled with blood.
"Is there a second option?"
"No."
"Can I call my lawyer first?"
"No."
"WILL YOU JUST GET ON WITH IT!? I'm not exactly the kind of guy who can handle long periods of stupid arguments." Marco jumped at the sound of Monster Arms voice and hit his head against Star's bedframe. "Ow…"
Star looked at Marco in confusion, taken back by his sudden action. "Uhhhh… are you okay Marco?"
Marco winced and rubbed the spot where he hit, "Mentally or physically?"
"Both…" Marco grimaced slightly at her response, wondering how stupid he actually looked at that moment. He crawled out from under her bed, taking a little longer than he should have before sitting on the soft covers next to Star. She placed a hand on his shoulder and Marco bit his lip, waiting for the earful he was about to receive… but it never came.
Instead, he felt Star grip his chin and turn his head in her direction, forcing him to look into her deep ocean eyes as his blush became slightly brighter. "Marco," she began, her voice was so light, delicate even. "Are you feeling okay?"
The question didn't come as a surprise, it was more expected than you'd think. Marco pondered on whether he should tell her, let her know about Monster Arm, she might be mad at first but she's never been able to bold a grudge for longer than three minutes.
"Don't do it! If she finds out, she'll get rid of me and that means you won't be able to beat Jeremy! Think about it Marco, either lie and keep the best thing that could ever happen to you, or tell her and handle the shame of defeat. I leave the choice to you…"
Those words didn't help his decision, Marco felt conflicted as to what he should do. He could keep Monster Arm and finally destroy Jeremy in a match… but he could never lie to Star…
"Marco, it's okay… Remember, you an tell me anything." Those worried eyes were all the confirmation he needed. "He's back…"
Star's eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape. "I… I see…" her voice wasn't as soft as before, more shaken and fearful, like a kitten near a vacuum. "How long has he been… back?" Marco sat in silence for a moment, taking a small breath before he completely spilled the beans. "If this is your choice… I will not stop you." Marco released his breath, ready to give Star the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Time skip quote: "A great evil has been unleashed…"
Only a few minutes were needed to explain what had happened to Star. She seemed very calm through out the conversation and kept her composure for the most part, only faltering at the mention of Monster Arm needing her wand. Star loved Marco, she really did, he was like the twin brother she never had… but that didn't mean she wasn't concerned for him. Marco could handle himself very well in intense situations and she respected his talent in fighting and self defense, yet he still wasn't the perfect fighter and never would be… after all, he was only human.
"Marco… I don't think you should keep Monster Arm… He caused us a lot of trouble in the past and I don't want you getting hurt." Star closed her eyes, waiting for Marco to argue, but she only heard him give a small chuckle. Star looked back at Marco, only to see a grin on his face, long and wicked, sharp teeth replacing the ones he usually had. His pupils had thinned to slits, barely visible at the thickness of a pin, his eye color fading to a sharp green.
"I'm sorry princess, but I'm afraid to tell you that I can't leave Marco." Star jumped off the bed, striking a defensive position as Marco(maybe) stood up and raised his hands in innocence. His voice had grown far deeper, giving Star an uneasy feeling in her stomach, his throat sounded like it had a large amount of slime basked in it and his eyes were so hard to look at that it was scary.
"Don't worry princess. I'm not going to hu-"
He was cut off by Star's fist hitting his gut, forcing him to arch over and get his breath back. Star drew back and growled angrily, showing the animal side that she usually never used.
"If your not here to hurt us, then why exactly are you here? I'm not feeling very cooperative right now, so you have ten seconds to answer before I beat you into sushi!"
Star grabbed Marco(maybe) by his shirt and held him against the wall for good measure, deadset on getting rid of the undersea demon that dwelled in Marcos mind. Marco(maybe) just laughed, throwing his head back as he continued to cackle away. This easily caught onto Star's nerves and she increased the pressure of her grip on his shirt, "What's so funny?!" she barked. Marco(maybe) looked straight back into Stars eyes, his pupils somehow becoming even thinner and the striking green becoming even more sharp and darkening in shade.
"What's so funny, is that you truly think that you can get rid of me… I was sentenced to inhabit this body at your will, Miss Butterfly, I am now one with Marco and there is no changing that…" The smile on Marco(maybe)'s face faded and fell into a frightening, emotionless look. Star dropped him and took a step back, feeling something she thought she'd never feel for as long as she lived…
Fear…
"You see Star... My original purpose was to erase humanity from existence, so my species and I could feast upon the corpses that lay across the world and continue to survive… But I see now that my intentions were primitive. Lacking in actual thinking and the emotion known as remorse for the life of others. I only wish to redeem my immortal soul of the misdeeds I have performed and prove to humanity that Monsters… can be just as human as they are…"
Star let the words sink into her brain, letting her mind try and clasp onto the thought of Monsters… that weren't actually Monsters…
"I… I want to help you, really… but, you've caused Marco and I so many problems in the past… What gives me the idea to actually help you? Let alone trust you?"
Marcos head hung low, a soft sigh escaping his lips. "You're right… I have caused a lot of trouble in my past… but I only wish to put that behind me. I want to be accepted… I want to be…"
He raised his head once more, Marcos brown eyes slowly fading back to normal, and his teeth losing their jagged points.
"Human…"
(Jacob) Boom! Cliffhanger!
Another continuation will be up soon and remember to vote for which AU you'd like to see next. Stay awesome everyone!
