Fortune Cookies
Star and Marcia were having a fun time right now. Both girls were in the middle of fighting monsters. Star throws a punch at Three-eyed Potato Baby who falls into Buff Frog who then falls onto Deer Beard.
"How are you losing?! You guys have, like, 200 pounds on her!" Ludo yelled
Marcia does a Butterfly Kick taking out two monsters.
"At least hit her with a rock or something!" Ludo yelled
Bearicorn roars and throws a pebble at Star's head not affecting her at all.
Star jumps off a two-headed monster and lands on a cactus.
"Off the cactus, over the tree! Nothin' but net!" Star said
She fires a Dagger Crystal Heart Attack. It ricochets off a cactus and into the back of giraffe monster's neck.
"Told you I could do it," Star said
Marcia smiles and is about to hand Star a dollar bill, but then turns around to see several monsters approaching in a line.
"Double or nothing! One kick, seven monsters!" Marcia said
Star smiles and bows letting Marcia go.
"Hiii-yah!" Marcia said kicking Buff Frog in the chin, knocking him backwards into the other monsters, and they fall like dominoes. The last monster falls onto Ludo crushing him.
"Nooooo!" Ludo yelled
"After a victory like this, there's only one thing to do: get Chinese food!" Marcia said
"Ooh, Chinese food! I have no idea what that is," Star said
Marcia and Star were now sitting down at a restaurant having lunch.
"Delicious! And it's so fun eating with these tiny wands!" Star said, she holds up the chopsticks and pretends to shoot out lasers with them.
Mrs. Liao walks by and puts a plate of fortune cookies on Star and Marcia's table.
"Oh, and there's cookies too!" Star said picking up a cookie and putting it in her mouth. She immediately spits out a piece of paper.
"Bleh. I don't like the filling," Star said
"These are fortune cookies. They can magically predict the future," Marcia said
"What?! No way!" Star said
Marcia opens her cookie and reads her fortune, "A friend will greet you with a smile."
"Aww, how sweet," Star said smiling.
Marcia lets out a gasp, "See? The cookies know all," Marcia said in a mystical tone.
"No, it can't be," Star opens another cookie, "Think positive and good luck will come your way."
Mrs. Liao passes by the table with a box of fortune cookies.
"More cookies!" Star yelled following Mrs. Liao.
Mrs. Liao was about to put the cookies in the trash, "They're stale."
"Gimme!" Star said bouncing around holding her hands out.
Mrs. Liao gives Star the cookies, "You're a weird girl."
"Wow, Star. Good luck did come your way," Marcia said
"It did, it did! These are incredible!" Star said holding the box.
Star holds the cookies up to her face with a frozen smile.
Marcia looks at her strangely, "...Star?"
The next day Marcia was in the kitchen cooking but was interrupted by Star talking to her box of cookies.
"Oh, wise and powerful cookies, bestow your sugary prophecies upon me," Star said
Marcia walks over with a plate of Carnitas, "Ehhh...Gotcha, Star! Those fortunes aren't magic. They're put there by people in a factory."
"Next you'll tell me that's how they get the snow in snow globes. It's clear they're the work of dark wizards," Star said
Marcia removes her oven mitts, "I'm serious. They're not real. They're just vague so you can read things into them."
Star breaks open a cookie, "An unexpected visitor will soon arrive."
Star sits in a chair and turns to the door expectantly with a large smile. Marcia walks over and opens and closes the door repeatedly.
"See? No one's here. Now, who wants Carnitas?" Marcia asked
Marcia opens the door one more time and Ferguson suddenly appears in the doorway.
"Did someone say Carnitas?!" Ferguson said
"Well, hello, my unexpected visitor," Star said
"Ferguson, Star thinks fortune cookies are magical. Will you please tell her they're not?" Marcia said
"Now, whoa, girl. Whoa. Cookies are magical. Once, I ate one from the floor of a cab, and I met my spirit animal that night. It was a wolf," Ferguson said before walking into the kitchen.
"I think you were just hallucinating from food poisoning," Marcia said
"Why are you suddenly a non-believer?" Star breaks open another cookie, "Reach for the stars and achieve your dream."
Star blasts a hole in the ceiling Buff Frog who was sitting on the roof spying was almost hit.
Marcia quickly pushes Star out of the way of falling debris.
"Pegasus feathers! I have always dreamed of having a skylight in here!" Star said
Marcia groans face palming.
"Blindly following these fortune cookies is the best decision I've ever made,"
Marcia looks over at the kitchen to see Ferguson eating all the food.
"Ferguson!" Marcia said running over, "Star can you help me with him!"
Star cracks open a cookie and reads it, "...Yes I can," Star said walking over to help Marcia.
Star and Marcia were walking through town sightseeing.
"Aw. Last cookie. I can't wait to get more!" Star said
"Star, I'm telling you, they'll back me up at the restaurant. Food can't predict the future!" Marcia said
"Sure it can. On Mewni, there's a place where you can get calzones that'll tell you how you're going to die," Star said
A man in Mewni bites into a calzone.
"You will die from choking on a calzone. Just kidding. Hahaha, A giant's gonna sit on your face," The Calzone said
Since Star needed more cookies the two girls walk back to the Chinese restaurant. As the two walk to the restaurant, they pass by an alleyway right behind the Chinese restaurant. There two people in the alleyway breakdancing.
"What are they doing?" Star asked
"Shhh. I think one of them's about to get served," Marcia said
As the two were watching a fly monster sneaks up on Star and reaches into her purse replacing her fortune cookie with another.
As the two girls get closer Ludo's army appears. The two break dancers remove their clothes to reveal two monsters.
Bearicorn appears from under the boombox, "Fooled you! Hahaha!"
"Hiiii-yah-!"
Marcia is stopped by Star holding her arm out as she read her fortune, "Stop. Hold on. Love is always the answer. Hmm."
The monsters quickly surround Star and Marcia.
"What?! Not in this case! Fighting is!" Marcia said
"Sorry, Marcia. It's not the will of the cookie," Star said
Marcia screams as a monster goes to attack her and she dodges, "Really?! Now?! Whoa!" Most of the monster start chasing after Marcia.
"Hugs!" Star said hugging Deer Beard.
Deer Beard briefly looks confused but smiles before hugging Star back.
"There's the wand! I can totally grab it!" Ludo said
Toffee pulls Ludo back, "Patience."
"Awww…" Ludo said
"Hiii-yah!" Marcia said kicking Big Chicken. A large egg falls out of the monster and lands in Marcia's hands. She throws the egg at Buff Frog's face. Marcia cheers but is knocked over into Three-eyed Potato Baby and Deer Beard. Marcia stands up and steps on Three-eyed Potato Baby's foot and knocks him away, then uppercuts Deer Beard. A two-headed monster approaches Marcia from behind, Marcia does a jumping split kick to its two heads.
"Star! Forget that stupid fortune! Help me!" Marcia yelled
Star hugs another monster, "Marcia, don't fight. Then they'll stop fighting you. Trust the cookie!"
Marcia squeals as she tossed into a dumpster.
"Hey, let me out! It stinks! Hey! Hey!" Marcia sadi banging on the inside of the dumpster.
"You guys really need some hugs," Star said as more monsters approach her.
"It's actually working! Mmmm...!" Ludo said
"Love is always the answer," Star said hugging a two-headed monster.
Ludo shoves his way past the monsters aiming for Star's wand.
"Out of my way! Mine! Mine! Yes! Yes! Yes!" Ludo yelled
He goes to grab the wand, but the two-headed monster holds him back.
"Back off, dude. I've been waiting for this since middle school," The Right Head said before the monster goes back to hugging Star.
"What?! You, idiots, are screwing the plan!" Ludo said
"Plan?" Star questioned
"Huh? Okay, look, Star. This is really hard to say, but if this is gonna go any further, I want our relationship to have a foundation of honesty," The Right Head said
"Me too," The Left Head said
"So confused, Star said
"Fortune cookies aren't real. It was all a trap so Ludo could steal your wand," The Right Head said
"Anyway, I hope-"
"We hope,'"The Left Head said
"We hope this isn't a deal breaker," The Right Head
A dumpster flies into Ludo and the two-headed monster. The lids lifts opens to reveal Marcia.
"You know what this means, don't you, Star?" Marcia said
"Oh, yeah. Love is never the answer," Star said in a serious tone with a stern face.
"Yup, and with that, I'll just hide in here," Marcia said closing the lid of the dumpster.
"Mega Mushroom Destruction Blast!" Star yelled shooting the monsters.
A large mushroom cloud appears covering all the monsters. When the mushroom cloud fades, the monsters lie on the ground covered in mushrooms.
Ludo groans and opens a portal forcing the monsters through, "Welcome to my life," Ludo said to Toffee.
Marcia climbs out of the dumpster once all the monsters are gone.
"Sorry. I should've listened to you. Obviously, you know better than a dessert," Star said
"No, it's my fault. I shouldn't have messed with you and said those fortunes were magical in the first place," Marcia said
The back door of the Chinese restaurant opens, and Mrs. Liao walks into the alleyway with another box of cookies.
"Oh! Weird perky girl! You want some more stale cookies?" Mrs. Liao said
"Who could say no to that?" Star sad
Star takes the box of cookies, and Mrs. Liao goes back inside.
"They're not real fortunes, but they're still real cookies," Star said giving Marcia a cookie.
Marcia breaks open a cookie and eats it, as Star reads the fortune.
"A great evil has been unleashed," Star read
"Ooooohhh…Hahahaha" Star and Marcia said laughing the fortune.
Star throws the fortune away as the two girls leave walking back home.
