Opening File: Marco Diaz
Marco Diaz is the son of Rafael and Angie Diaz, as well as Star Butterfly's best friend on Earth. Marco is kind, responsible, very organized, and supportive of others. He has a reputation at his school for being the 'safe kid' due to avoiding danger and being cautious, though he insists that he is a "misunderstood bad boy" and lives for danger. He prefers keeping his possessions neatly organized. Marco is smart, gets good grades in his math and psychology classes, and figures out how to find a replacement for Star's wand charger using the metric system.
Because he likes it when things go his way, he can become unstable when they don't, like when he snaps at Star for ruining his room and insanely trying to live in front of Stop & Slurp. Although he isn't used to the kind of craziness that Star brings, he admits that he would like a little danger in his life and finds fun in fighting monsters with karate. He often struggles with self-confidence, afraid of being ridiculed by others, and can become nervous easily. He has many insecurities and emotional hang-ups. He has an occasional temper and can get frustrated and/or annoyed with others, such as with Star when she intrudes upon his life, or recklessly drags him into overly dangerous situations.
However, he soon makes amends with those who cause him grief, like thanking Pony Head for saving him. When Marco first met Star, he initially wanted nothing to do with her, terrified by her magical abilities (or lack thereof) and frustrated by her suddenly intruding into his life, especially because she was only paired with him because of his reputation as the 'Safe Kid'. After their first fight with Ludo, however, Marco realized how amazing of a person Star really is and accepted her into his home. Marco cherishes her company and soon comes to see her as his best friend.
He thinks her skills with fighting monsters are impressive, and he likes joining her on her adventures. With Star's help and adventurous ways, Marco is learning how to be less cautious and instead make the most of his life. In turn, he makes sure that they do not get into too much trouble. While Star's bubbly, helpful, and reckless personality can sometimes causes Marco a lot of trouble, irritate him, or even cause him physical pain, he appreciates having her around, even calling her the coolest girl he knows.
He can be a little overprotective of her at times and underestimates her ability to handle things on her own, which often infuriates her. Marco is a student in the Tang Soo Do discipline of karate, taking the Hunter course in Echo Creak Academy. He is very capable of using karate chops, kicks, and punches to battle monsters as effectively as Star. Recently Marco helped rescue Star when she was taken to the Island of Avalon as a sacrifice to the demon god Crom Cruach and defeated the Harvester of Riches alongside Star, Glossaryck and Dani Phantom.

"I've said it before and I'll say it again, life can be pretty tough sometimes. But one thing that can make it better is a friend. Whether it's a shoulder to cry on or someone to watch your back, a real friend will always be there for you. But being a true friend is just as important." TOM watched the file close. "Lending a hand when they need it, or not judging someone for who they are. A friend is a powerful weapon. So if you're feeling down, reach out for a friend and when you're feeling good, look to give someone else a boost. Cause we're all in this together, so we might as well be friends"

Within the depths of the dark caverns of the misty mountains of Nowhere Van Kleiss grinned as he looked at the metallic body of the android he had been constructing for the last several months. This was the android known in one universe as A.M.A.Z.O. and it was the key to his ultimate ascension. The android's body was composed of a special form of nanite known as the absorption cells, which allowed it to scan and copy the special abilities of anyone it sees down at the microscopic level, mimicking their biological anatomy. This ability showed Van Kleiss, despite being an expert into nanite technology there was still much he had yet to actually learn and potential that he had yet to fully discover even with the Meta-Nanites.
Even if the Meta-Nanites were permanently deactivated the nanites used for A.M.A.Z.O. might allow him to bypass that little setback.
Unfortunately there was a problem.
Van Kleiss Recording: 958
My work into creating an exact replica of the A.M.A.Z.O. android is nearly complete but unfortunately I have reached a setback. I created a special spy drone designed to scan life forms of this planet at the cellular level but unfortunately they could not replicate the abilities that various Hunters have shown. My theory is that since the power of the Aura and Semblance is a manifestation of the metaphysical soul, the scientific term being their essence the nanites are unable to copy their powers. They scanned the few Grimm known to live in Nowhere and unfortunately there are little results.
The entire cellular structure of the Grimm is polymorphic in nature, allowing them maintain their form but I have seen in the hands of a Fallen their forms can be changed and altered through a direct channel of energy, their 'magic' directly into the Grimm's body. I would say their bodies were nanite based but even then they seem transcend even that. Thus I am forced to seek out those with natural but different abilities to scan for my new nanites. The android is nearly ready and once it is complete I will be able to integrate its nanite designed body into my own, enhancing my own abilities and giving me the ability to scan and duplicate the powers of almost every life form.
It's not the quick and direct path to my ascension but I am willing to make the effort. I have already designed spy drones carrying these nanites and sent them to every corner of the world to locate, observe and scan certain subjects and then return to the lab to integrate their data into my android's body that will then be absorbed into me. Of course the progress is slow so I will have to set aside but the machines have been programmed to carry the task of creating the ultimate body for me to integrate into my own body.
End Log
Once he was done recording his latest entry he turned to his desk computer and saw the list on it.
LIST OF HIGH PRIORITY SUBJECTS
Name: Connor Kent
Alias: Superboy
Abilities – Kryptonian physiology allows him to directly absorb ultra-solar rays, gaining increased strength and durability, possibly flight, X-Ray vision, telescopic vision, microscopic, Electromagnetic vision, theta vision, enhanced speed, Super and Arctic Breath and Heat Vision.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Vladimir Masters
Alias: Vlad Plasmius
Former Abilities – A half-ghost or 'halfa' is a human whose genetic structure is infused with ectoplasm. Half-ghosts have the ability to change between human and ghost forms at will, and possess the same supernatural powers that ghosts have. Half-ghosts have access to ghost powers such as intangibility, invisibility, and flight.
Half-ghosts can use the majority of their powers while in human form, and can change into ghost form to use them to their fullest extent. Half-ghosts have immunity to many effects due to their dual nature. For example, they can pass through anti-ghost shields unharmed while in human form, and their ghost half makes them resistant to ghostly effects, such as Ember's hypnotic music, that would otherwise affect humans. However, like full ghosts, they are still vulnerable to ghost weaknesses such as ecto-ranium and Blood Blossoms.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Danielle
Alias: Dani Phantom
Abilities – Half Ghost like Vlad Master
Location: Sanban home in Tokyo, Japan
Name: Skulker
Alias: None
Abilities: Exactly like Vlad Master and Danielle.

Name: Star Butterfly
Alias: None
Abilities – Subject is able to use transmutation abilities from her 'wand' that channels energy known as magic. Biology possibly humanoid with minor differences much like how a dogs and wolves are related.
Name: Omnimon
Alias: None
Abilities – Despite being a 'digital' entity subject is able to produce an Aura but even then it is unique as its Semblance produces four separate abilities. Ability Breaker: Can disable a Semblance for 72 hours. Is theorized to have the ability to remove a Semblance permanently as well, but the power output required could kill Omnimon. Certain sections of certain Runes on his Grey Sword glow gold when Ability Breaker is being used.
Weakness: Can only be used at close range and with direct contact.
Danger Sense: Can sense Fallen as well as Grimm. Range for this is limited, but exact range is unknown.
Brave Shield: A golden shield with the Crest of Courage on it appears from his left shoulder to block all attacks from 360 degrees. Can be boosted with his Aura to make it even stronger. Can be used in an offensive manner by ramming opponents if need be. Omnimon survived a large boulder being tossed onto him because of this form.
Weakness: Can only be used if surrounded on all sides or if cornered. Cannot attack if deployed.
Data Recovery: Can regenerate a lost limb.
Weakness: Takes up to four months at maximum, and no other form of his Semblance can be used until the limb lost is completely regenerated.
In addition to his Semblance and Aura, Omnimon has four attacks at his disposal. The Grey Sword and Transcendent Sword for his WarGreymon head-hand, and the Garuru Cannon and Supreme Cannon for his MetalGarurumon head-hand.
Transcendent Sword: Unleashes a powerful blue energy wave from his Grey Sword.
Grey Sword: Uses his Grey Sword to slash at his enemies.
Garuru Cannon: Fires off an energy blast that is yellow in color.
Supreme Cannon: Fires of an icy blast of energy that freezes whatever it makes contact with, down to 0 degrees Kelvin. Rarely used due to sheer power and cold.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Agunimon
Alias: None
Abilities: His nature is exactly like Omnimon but has shown the ability to transform into two different forms known as BurningGreymon and Aldamon.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Crom Cruach
Alias: None
Abilities: Subject has shown to have had similar abilities to Subject: Superboy but much stronger and was able to absorb any and all forms of energy, whether it be science or magic. During the event known as the Crom Crises a spy drone carrying absorption cell nanites was sent to GrimmFall and observed the subject's fight against group known as the Justice Friends and was scanned at the cellular structure.
Location: Deceased
Name: Unknown
Alias: Major Glory
Abilities: As one of the most powerful Huntsmen in the world Major Glory possesses the standard abilities of super strength and flight, as well as super speed and stamina which he has had since he was a child. Major Glory is also nigh-invulnerable to fatal damage and can even survive in space; however he can still feel pain even if it does no permanent damage to him, which makes his invulnerability somewhat ineffective in that regard as he can even pass out from too much pain. Aside from these physical attributes, Major Glory also has several eye-related superpowers such as X-Ray vision and his Star-Spangled Laser Vision. All of these powers and years of experience have allowed Major Glory to be strong enough to even fight against intergalactic tyrant Vilgax on even terms.
Due to the source of his power being a spirit passed down to him from his uncle, Major Glory has no personal weapons of his own and never unlocked his own Semblance, even though it matters very little considering his might.
Name: Infrangible Krunk
Alias: None
Abilities: Krunk is a powerful superhero and likely the physically strongest hero on the planet who has even earned the title of "World's Mightiest Mortal", showing that he truly is the mightiest man among mortalkind. Krunk's strength seemingly grows whenever he becomes emotional, such as being too happy, excited or angry. He also possesses superhuman invulnerability, regeneration, and is completely immune to pain, as even getting assaulted by an entire legion of villains did no harm to him. However his low intellect, emotional behavior, and childish personality are his greatest weaknesses as he can easily be distracted or fooled.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Valhallen
Alias None
Abilities: Super strength along with speed and durability shown in other Asgardians. Valhallen is capable of many things with his guitar, creating powerful soundwaves to destroy enemies and even conjure lightning like his brother Thor.
Location: GrimmFall
Group: Crystal Gems
Abilities: Typical Gem abilities include extreme physical strength and durability, weapon-summoning, fusion, the power to 'store' material in their gemstones, the ability to use their gemstones like a flashlight, and bubble creation. Gems are engineered to adapt to a variety of conditions and cannot die by natural causes. Gems do not have to breathe, eat, drink, and sleep to survive, and they do not age, making them effectively immortal.
When the physical body of a Gem is seriously injured, they will retreat into their gemstone to regenerate. Though a regeneration can take minutes to weeks, a 'rushed' regeneration may lead to deformities. This is one of the only times Gems can make permanent changes to their physical form. They can also adjust to any gravity force on any planet seen.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Lobomon
Alias: None
Abilities: This Digimon is skilled in sword combat, having two beam sabers on his person for just that. However, Lobomon also has a long-range attack via the laser cannon built into his left gauntlet. Despite having only two weapons, the Warrior of Light is also very fast, so he can unleash devastating if not stunning combos with his blades to finish off an opponent. His attacks are Lobo Kendo and Howling Laser.
Location: Last seen in Japan
Name: Kazemon
Alias: None
Abilities: Kazemon is more tactically inclined due to her lacking the strength of her fellow Digimon, but that doesn't mean she can't handle own in battle. Her element of Wind gives her the oomph her physical attacks lack, and she can use her looks to charm her opponents so she can take advantage of their distraction. Her attacks are Hurricane Wave, Tempest Twist, and a few others.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Lowemon
Alias: None
Abilities: Lowemon can call upon the shadows themselves to do his bidding. But it is not like calling upon the deceased or even creating Grimm. No, he uses the actual darkness itself, not the Dark Substance like one would assume. This means he is very powerful, especially at night, when the sun is not out. To aid him in his combat, Lowemon can also call upon a spear and a shield with a Sphinx's faces on it for defense.
He also has a few attacks at his disposal to use. They are his Shadow Meteor, which is launched from the lion's head on his chest armor, and his Shadow Lance, where he uses his spear to unleash a dark energy wave at his enemies.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Joseph Matthews
Alias: Dracon
Abilities: Is unable to produce Aura but comes heavily armed and his psychoframe is made from a metal supposedly immune to the effects of the Dark Substance.
Location: Unknown
Name: Nigel Uno
Alias: None
Abilities: The powers of the Ice Elemental that grants the power to control, create and manipulate ice. It is stated the Ice Elemental can bring winter to the entire world.
Location: GrimmFall
Name: Abigail Lincoln
Alias: None
Abilities: The powers of the Candy Elemental that grants the power over every known chemical in the periodic table. With it she can conjure basic liquids like water to dangerous ones like acidic chemicals and even create explosive chemicals. Fitting the title of her power she can create any form of candy from nothing.
Name: Edward Hill
Alias: None
Abilities: The powers of the Slime Elemental that grants the power over any incarnation of slime. It is believed slime can absorb mass taken into it, breaking it down into its basic ingredients, adding more energy to its power.
Location: GrimmFall but soon to be Peach Creek
Name: Julia Yamamoto
Alias: None
Abilities: The powers of the Fire Elemental that grants the power to control, create and manipulate fire. It is stated the Fire Elemental can burn the entire world if their full power is released.
Van Kleiss grinned as his eyes looked on the last name.
Name: Ben Tennyson
Alias: None
Abilities: Has a unique device known as the Omnitrix that transforms him into ten different aliens with unique abilities. It is speculated the device can allow for more transformations with the exact number unknown at this time. Study and observation have been made high priority.
Close Files
The boy's device allowed him to take multiple forms and thus he was made top priority for his spy drones to observe and hopefully scan each and every form he takes with his wrist watch device. Of course it might take years and Van Kleiss didn't have that much time. So in the meantime he would continue his studies into other dimensions using the portal machine that was powered by Breach but he had an idea for a certain project he had been inspired to start by studying the data on the creatures known as Digimon.
Project: Megabyte
Project: Hexadecimal
Project: Phantom Virus
Description: After having using the nanites of A.M.A.Z.O. to scan the Digimon known as Omnimon, Agunimon, Gallantmon, Kazemon, Lowemon and Lobomon I have begun the task of attempting to create my own artificial beings made of data, energy and light, based on and modelled after the Digimon and the extraterrestrial species known as the Gems I have studied. In time I am sure to create two incredibly powerful digital beings that will serve me and if it is successful I will be able to create more, perhaps entire army to serve me and give me an advantage against the Grimm, the Fallen and especially Sammael. The project initially began with a single entity known as Kilobyte, after scanning the viral like data from Gallantmon I proceeded to create a core unit, based off of an infinite energy reactor I observed from another universe to project a form similar to how the Gems operate and maintain their forms. Thankfully the absorption cell nanites were able to scan and give me a complete molecular understanding of how the Gems control and operate their bodies from their gemstones.
The core unit for Kilobyte showed promise and initial testing proved positive. However the original Kilobyte itself proved to be inferior in capability when compared to the likes of the Digimon and the Gems. If released it would have been little match for even a Class III Hunter. Fortunately its data was malleable enough that I could upgrade it but that was when I saw the true potential of my first creation. The upgrade, upon being uploaded into Kilobyte caused a digital mutation, possibly similar to how Agunimon was able to transform into its other two forms.
The mutation caused Kilobyte to become overly aggressive as it set in, gaining transfinite energy reserves possibly from the infinite energy core I supplied, flight, portal forming, energy absorbing, and enhanced calculating thought process. If that was not at all Kilobyte soon enough physically transformed before my very eyes, becoming larger and more powerful than I ever imagined.
"I…AM BECOME GIGABYTE! DESTROYER OF UNIVERSES!"
Unfortunately the mutation caused an energy surge in the lab, especially affecting the portal machine Breach in still connected to and thus caused a portal to form around Gigabyte when she tried to send him away. The portal failed and caused Gigabyte to split into two separate entities, each gaining special attributes: the brother known as Megabyte gained enhanced strength and calculating thought process while the sister known as Hexadecimal gained Gigabyte's trans-finite power reserves, teleportation, ability to fly, portal forming abilities and many others. Together these two could be the greatest and most powerful beings on the planet…provided I can keep them under my control. Their programming, especially Hexadecimal's is erratic and it was extremely difficult to control.
I was fortunate the surge from the portal generator weakened them enough for me to contain them and seal them up in the stasis pods. For now I will keep them there until I can successfully program them to serve me. In the meantime I have begun creating a third digital soldier, based on another digital creature that was made by a disgraced science student that worked on a special project combining game technology with an actual device made for digitizing living people and placing them in a digital environment. The original virus was destroyed but I was able to discover the game it was deleted in and found pieces of its codes, it's 'corpse' if you will and retrieved them.
Once I found its codes I began the process of remaking it and upgrading it, providing it with an infinite energy core like Kilobyte's. This one might prove to be more subservient to me than its older siblings but I remain cautious. It was easier to program since I basically started from scratch and results look promising. I intend to release it soon and send it to help me gather more useful data for my A.M.A.Z.O. body.
I believe I already have a target in mind.
Van Kleiss grinned as he looked over the stasis pods lining the walls of his lab, eager to see the results of his hard work. Inside the first pod was a creature resembling a woman wearing a red skintight outfit with black gauntlets and gloves on her hands and arms with black high heeled boots going up to her knees. A cape emerged from her back, split into a dozen smaller cloths traveled down her back. Her face was pale white, resembling a mask with green eyes and a serene face with a red protrusion emerging from her head in the shape of a crown.
In the pod next to her was a blue armored creature resembling a robot with green outlines and a green emblem on its chest. The robot had a red protrusion from the back of its head resembling a crown. Yellow claws emerged from its hands, looking extremely sharp and could possibly cut apart anyone or anything unlucky enough to be close enough to them. And in the final pod was a mass of glowing azure energy, coming together to form a ghostly creature with a mouth and eyes.
The specter had sharp clawed like hand and pointed ends at the bottom of its legs instead of actual feet.
"Soon enough the world will see you for what you are. My greatest creations and proof of my genius." Van Kleiss whispered, looking back to his computer.
On the screen of his computer, a window showing Danielle 'Dani' Phantom dressed as a shrine maiden sweeping the front porch of a temple appeared along with recordings of Raven with Team SEKR and Artemis and Connor with Team REYN.
"Soon. Very soon."
Xxx
"So he's found a way create artificial data based beings."
Van Kleiss had no idea that his work was being monitored by an entity from within a dark digital plane of existence. This strange mind was still recovering from the battle with another powerful entity that had humiliated him in battle no once, not twice but thrice.
He wanted nothing more to exact revenge on them.
He was still recovering from the last fight but right now it seemed like Van Kleiss' work might have potential.
A chance to become powerful enough to make any universe, physical or digital his own personal playground.
Sounds like a chance too good to pass up.
Xxx
"Van Kleiss is readying his army of pawns." Moloch said, gesturing to the board on the table as Sammael walked in. "Three potential pawns that could cause trouble."
"So he's finally back to work." Sammael mused as he sat down. "About time."
"His portal machine is back up and running and he's been using to create an android body to absorb that can copy the unique abilities of anyone it sees." Moloch stated.
"Including Semblances?"
"No. It seems the unique nature of a Semblance eludes him…For now. He still thinks in scientific terms." Moloch answered.
"Most scientists think that way. Dr. Kriegar is no different." Sammael looked the chess piece representing Van Kleiss.
"He hopes to create a body powerful enough to destroy us." Moloch pointed out.
"Fortunately he's drawing too much attention to himself." Sammael smirked. "I just received word that Team SEKR and Team REYN are meeting in GrimmFall."
"So they will meet and plan their strategy for tracking down Van Kleiss." Moloch stated. "And he already has two following the lead you set up for them."
"Only they will move much faster." Sammael remarked. "I am sure his pawns can provide a challenge to them and to other obstacles."
Xxx
"There it is. Echo Creek." Double D said, letting out a yawn as the suit of armor with the car sitting on its back flew over the small town.
"So any idea where we can find this princess?" Dipper asked from the passenger seat of the car, rubbing an eye.
Both had woken up several minutes ago from a few hours of napping and were ready to get down to their mission.
"Armatae, do you have the address?" Double D asked.
Of course. The princess is boarding with a family known as the Diazs. They are known for renting their spare room out to students visiting from other countries.
"What's the address?" Double D asked, feeling that Armatae had a bit of an ego.
4815 Avocado Terrace
"4815 Avocado Terrace." Double D repeated. "All right. Take us down to that address."
You do know you cannot order me around.
"…I request that you take us down." Double D sighed.
…Very well.
"So do you get along with that machine on your chest?" Dipper asked, having heard the entire conversation.
"It's a recently made partnership. We're learning how to deal with each other." Double D answered.
"So as long as we rescue my sister it doesn't matter to me. I just hope Mabel can hold through whatever torture they put her through." Dipper said with his mind racing with whatever horrible ideas for what could be happening to Mabel right now.

"Na na na na na na na na sewing! Na na na na na na na na sewing! Sewing! Sewing!"
"Girl, will you keep it down?" Pony Head leaned in and shouted whispered/shouted as quiet as she could in Mabel's ear.
"Hang on." Mabel held a hand to Pony Head's mouth. "Sewing! Okay, I'm done. What do you think?" Mabel asked as she held out a sparkling pink dress decorated with shooting stars.
Pony Head grumbled, looking away from her own table. Seriously, she's a literal floating pony head with no arms at all!
How can she be expected to learn sewing?!
"Time for singing class!" Gemini called out.
Xxx
"When your heart is filled with sunshine and you're feeling oh so free. All of life is just divine and the world is full of glee!" The singing teacher lectured.
Mabel had a bird on her finger, whistling at her. "Really? You get how much bird seed a day?"
"Princess Maple Cherry, are you talking to the bird?" The teacher asked. "You are supposed to sing with it."
"Oh okay." Mabel nodded and sang her question. "Really? You get how much bird seed a day?"
The bird simply sang its answer back.
"Wow. And how much nectar?" Mabel sang her next question.
The teacher just stared at Mabel as she and the bird had a singing conversation. 'Strike one.'
"Time for movie class."
Xxx
Mabel was staring at the movie which was essentially a guide to how to be a princess.
"Everyone admires a princess that does not perspire."
"I'm out of here." One princess whispered the one next to her and tried to stand up….
Only for a light to shine down on her.
"Do you wish to leave?" The teacher asked.
The princess gulped.
"You are welcome to leave." The teacher gestured to the door. "Just tell us why you want to leave."
"Uh…No, I was just stretching my legs." The princess quickly sat back down.
This happened several times through the movie with a princess trying to leave only for a light to shine down on her and instead of giving a reason for why she wanted to leave she simply sat back down. It's not like she could give the real reason she wanted to leave. If any princess told the truth they'd be sent to solitary conformant. Once the movie was done all the princesses were quite, sitting up straight and seemed to be taking in the lessons from the movie.
Except one.
"Wait! I'm confused about the movie. So the knights knew that the king's evil adviser was setting them up?" Mabel asked out of the blue.
"What are you talking about!? There's nothing like that in there." The teacher said with a confused look on her face.
"Oh you see when I get bored I make up my own movie. I have been told I have a very short attention span." Mabel explained.
"But our point is very simple. You see, when..."
"Oh, look! My singing bird buddy!" Mabel left the room chasing the bird, leaving the teacher to simply watch.
'Strike two.'

Star Butterfly could say she had a rough day just a few days ago. She had fought evil monsters in her own dimension and on Earth while taking down the occasional small Grimm while her friends made sure she didn't go looking for the big ones. She had been trained to fight since she was a little girl and her father was born from a family of warriors that didn't shy away from fighting. Of course it's not every day you get kidnapped and almost sacrificed to some sort of monster claiming to be a god but Star walked it off and decided to not think about for one special reason:
It's her best friend's birthday!
"I just called 'cause have to say, happy birthday on your birthday day, happy birthday on your birthday day!" Star danced in front of the mirror showing Pony Head. "And... there's a special delivery coming right your way, your favorite." Star grabbed a tray of cupcakes. Pony Head was surprised by the cupcakes with small fireworks. "Only the best for the best bestie a best bestie could have."
"Ah, oh my goodness! Thank you so much B-fly!" Pony Head suddenly calmed herself. "I mean, a princess such as myself, could never tolerate such confections. But would you please donate them to the starving bartendens of Galafamor on my behalf?"
Star looked at Pony Head, shocked. "Did you bump your uni-horn again?"
"Girl," Pony Head whispered. "You know we can't receive packages here at St. Olga's School for Wayward Princesses."
Star screamed and dropped the tray of cupcakes and hid away. "St. O's, St. O's, St. O's!"
Star's room was silent, except for Star's boots kicking under from the rug.
"B-fly?"
Star came out from hiding inside her chest. "I can't even stand to hear the name of that place." Star shuddered as she made her way around her boots.
"Oh, please, you've got to be chill B-fly. I'm the one doing hard time here!"
"I know, but if you weren't there we could totally party it up!" Star suggested as her imagination started running.
Rainbow tea at the Dowager Room, sliding down the twisty slopes of Zala Mountain, then dancing all night long at the Bounce Lounge!
Star's imagination ended as she looked back at Pony Head. "Oh, heck yeah girl. That would be the best birthday day ever! Boom!"
A door creaked open in the background and Pony Head suddenly gasped. "Oh no! I expressed my individuality that publically showed an emotion."
Pony head gasped again.
"And that's my third strike. Oh no, no, please no, no, they're sending me to the solitary conform-ment chamber!"
A guard took Pony Head away and the connection on Star's inter-dimensional mirror was cut off.
"Pony Head!" Star fell to her knees. "AWWW! You don't deserve this!"
Star sobbed on her knees while Marco came in doing some karate moves. "Ready to take out life's frustrations on some ill-intentioned monsters?"
Star stopped and looked at Marco before continuing again. "This is terrible! Best friends don't let best besties have bad birthday days!" Star blew her nose into a tissue. "And Pony Head is having the worst one ever."
"Pony Head?" Marco hesitated. "Ugh, I'm out of here." Marco started walking away like he said.
"Marco! We have to get her out of that prison!"
Marco turned around and headed back to Star. "Ah, a breakout! Why didn't you say so?" Marco said and helped Star up. "Wait, isn't St. O's-"
Star panicked again, running to hide again. "St. O's, St. O's, St. O's!"
"Uh, we haven't even left yet."
Random boots were still kicking, and this time Star came out from behind a clothing rack. "Sorry."
Star headed back over to Marco who was staring at the rug. "What's that under your rug?!"
"I have no idea, but I do know one thing, never ever step on it." Star answered.
"Let's get back to that breakout thing." Marco suggested.
"But no one's ever escaped from there." Star pointed out.
"I've seen every prisoner escape movie made, even the ones in space." Marco said confidently, going over at a dresser and rummaged through a drawer. "We only need three things: patience, brains, and the ever-famous multi-faceted bobby pin."
"Or, we use my dimensional scissors to go straight to her cell and get her the heck out of there!" Star suggested, pulling out her dimensional scissors.
"Star! Marco! You've got visitors!" Marco's Dad, Raphael called out from downstairs.
"That's probably Janna and Jackie. They'd be mad if we tried to stage a prison break without them." Marco said, heading down to the door with Star following him.
When they reached the door they were greeted with an odd sight, even for them.
Someone wearing metallic armor that shrunk down, revealing a boy wearing an orange shirt, purple shorts and sock like hat covering his head and next to him was a boy around the same age with shaggy brown hair, a summer cap with a green pine tree on it.
"Miss Star Butterfly?" The boy formerly wearing armor asked. "My name is Eddward and this is my friend, Dipper. We're here because Dipper's sister was taken away by people who thought she was a princess. We need your help to save her before something bad happens to her."
Xxx
"Keep your pinkies at 90 degrees, more tea please."
This time Mabel was getting bored as she forced to recite the tea code for princesses, all the while drinking boring old tea. One of the teacher's assistants kept on coming around a tea kettle to poor more tea for the princesses as they continued their lessons.
Unable to take it anymore Mabel quickly raised her hand to get the teacher's attention. "Yes, Princess Maple."
"It's Mabel and I have to go to the bathroom." Mabel said, unable to hold it in anymore.
"Very well. Don't forget to wash your hands."
Mabel rushed out and ran into the bathroom, sighing in relief a moment later. She came back out after having washed her hands and spotted the assistant wheeling another kettle of tea towards the classroom. "Oh no. Not more tea."
She saw a sack of sugar on the cart and got an idea. "Look! Runaway princess!"
"Where?!" The assistant followed Mabel's finger and ran down the hallway.
Mabel then snuck up to the cart and opened the sack of sugar before pouring it into the kettle. Grinning Mabel walked back into the classroom and sat back down in her seat as another round of tea was poured for the class.
"Keep your pinkies at 90 degrees, more tea please." The Princesses recited, taking another sip of their tea…and started twitching uncontrollably.
Some fell over, some shot up into the air and others like Mabel collapsed to the ground, shaking badly with a big smile on their faces and eyes wide as dinner plates.
"What happened?!" The robot teacher shouted at the assistant.
"I-I don't know!"
"Get a doctor in here! We're losing them-them-them-them-them!" The robot teacher's voice echoed in Mabel's head as her entire vision changed.
The room along with the building itself changed, becoming the Mystery Shack, her parent's home and so many other places at once. Day became night, night became day, stars flashed and exploded, galaxies collapsed, black holes expanded and shrunk. As she stared up at the ceiling Mabel saw many faces, changing, switching places, disappearing or even were replaced by people she didn't know. So many changes happening at once, too fast for poor Mabel to comprehend as she peered beyond what was the reality she lived in and saw so many realities at once, including one that stuck out in her mind.
'GrimmFall? The name of the city or is it some kind of fancy TV show or even a fan fic with us as characters?!' Mabel thought.
'The answer is both.'
'Huh?' Mabel looked around and found herself accompanied by a dark haired man leaning against the counter by the register, holding up a bowl with ice cream in it.
'It's called gelato you uncultured twit.' The man drawled.
'Where am I?! What happened?!' Mabel gasped, feeling around to make sure she hadn't lost or grown any extremities. 'Who are you?!'
'In order: that explosion you triggered didn't simply break the fourth wall, but just caused you to peer beyond the threshold of the multiverse.' The man explained casually, taking a spoonful of gelato. 'Bravo. I must say, I was getting bored until I caught wind of this. And I imagine the big man himself will want to talk to you in a moment.'
'Big man? Who is that?' Mabel asked.
Suddenly, the floor of the Mystery Shack tore open, unleashing a pillar of fire as a figure slowly emerged into view. At first Mabel could not make out its exact shape as it seemed to change before her very eyes, but slowly it settled into a shape…
Of what looked like the cross between a unicorn, a centaur and a dolphin with bulging muscular arms sticking out of its sides.
'Uh…wow.' The dark haired man commented. 'Just so you know, he appears based on how you'd imagine he looks. And girl: you've got one cah-raaaaazy imagination.'
'Who are you?!' Mabel swallowed.
The dolphin opened its mouth. 'I am Lord Maximus, He Who Tells This Tale! And you, Mabel, just consumed enough sugar that you temporarily slipped into a coma and breached the veil between every alternate reality. So first off…' He clapped his muscular hands together. 'Good one. Second of all: are you crazy?!'
'Wait, tale? Are we in a story?' Mabel asked.
'Yes and no. You still have free will and all that, I just tell everyone what happens.' He pointed a thumb towards the dark haired man. 'And I'm not the only one either as there are others telling our readers of tales of other people. That one there has somebody else telling a different story within this reality. And he's taking forever to get around to it! But I digress.'
'So…what happens to me now?' Mabel braced herself for the worst.
'Eh, nothing.' The dark haired man shrugged. 'I just slipped in ahead of Maxxy there to make sure you wouldn't freak out and have a heart attack before he got here, unlike a certain idiot who I would absolutely LOVE to see choke on the next stupid thing to come out of his mouth.'
'Put shortly: you will awaken with no memory of this. This scene will be considered basically 'non-canon'. Lord Maximus clarified. 'Oh, and one last thing…your brother is coming to save you.'
'Hah!' Mabel grinned and held her arms up. 'I knew it! Mystery Twins never leave each other behind!'
'Precisely!' The dark haired man beamed. 'Goodness, her enthusiasm is infectious.'
'So keep smiling, keep your spirits up and don't let them break you.' Lord Maximus rested a hand on her shoulder.
'And also: reality is an illusion, the multiverse is a hologram, buy gold and whatever you do, don't touch Ragnarok with a fifty foot pole!' The dark haired man advised hastily as the world seemed to break up and dissolve around her. 'Remember what I said! Ragnarok su….'
'I'll always remember that, good sir!' Mabel called out…and then bolted upright in a sitting position back in the real world with a heavy gasp. "…I forget what I was dreaming about, but it sure felt awesome!"
Xxx
He slowly opened his eyes, groaning as he woke up from what seemed to be a long sleep.
"Kevin!"
He looked around, seeing many familiar faces. "Nazz? Rolf?"
Not just them.
There was also Ed who was chattering with Jonny while some other kids were talking to some white armored guy who sitting on a bed.
"Kevin boy has finally awakened! We have finally united and created new friends! Let us celebrate!" Said Rolf as Kevin grew a face of concern and fear.
"Please don't tell me you're gonna be putting eels don everybody's pants again." Kevin said as Rolf laughed and Nigel and Abby said in unison. "What?!"
"Oh, hohoho! No..."
Kevin sighed in relief.
"It will be the hagfish down the pants of reconvene!" Rolf said pulling out two large buckets of slimy hagfish pout of nowhere as Nigel, Abby and Wally stared in disgust and shock.
"Oh! Oh! Me first Rolf!" Jonny said as Rolf dumped hagfish down his pants first.
"Now some for you." Rolf said dumping them down Ed's pants next.
"Kevin boy! Join us!" Rolf said smiling.
"I'll pass, dude." Kevin quickly said.
"Son of a gun, you insult Rolf by denying the hagfish!?" Rolf yelled as he stood over Kevin in giant anime style with flames behind him.
"Oh, umm... Nope! Nope!" Kevin said scared with a nervous smile as he held his pants out and Rolf dumped hagfish down his pants.
"Let me join you!" Rolf said as he dumped the hagfish down his own pants as well.
"Nigel? Wally? Abby? Nazz?" Rolf asked looking at the two boys and the two girls, one of whom was holding back her laughter before they all nervously tried to think of a way to avoid that fate. "Care to join us?"
"Um…I am wearing bicycle shorts!" Abby quickly said. "Not good for sticking eels down!"
"And grabbing a girl's pants is kind of looked down on, dude." Nazz said just as quickly.
Rolf's only response was to laugh as he said. "That is no problem! Down the front of your indoor female worker dresses then!"
"Wait, what did you just sa-IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!" Nazz shrieked as Rolf already poured the hagfish down the front of Nazz's shirt and she started freaking out.
"What do you think your do-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Abby screamed next as Rolf dumped the hagfish down the front of her shirt.
Both girls started to have panic attacks as the slimy fish were squiggling around under their clothes. Nigel and Wally didn't get off scot free as they were the last to have eels poured down their pants while Omnimon looked on in stunned silence.
"Aah! Aah! Aah!" Kevin was feeling understandably uncomfortable.
"WHOHOHOHO!" Nigel shrieked.
"This feels so weird! Woo-whoo!" Jonny said, actually enjoying the experience.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! EW! EW! GROSS! GROSS! GROSS! GROSS! I CAN FEEL THEM SQUERMING!" Nazz shrieked.
"WOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! EW! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! THEY'RE SO SLIMY!" Abby shrieked as well.
"Wooooooooooooooooooooh! Hoo! Hoo!" Screamed Wally as White Tiger and Capital G stepped in.
"Hey guys, we just thought we'd..." Capital G stopped talking as he and White Tiger were looking at everyone with squirming movement in their pants with the exception of Nazz and Abby who were shrieking as movement was seen coming from under the front of their shirts. "What's going on here!?"
"Oh! Ed-boy you brought a new friend!" Said Rolf happily as Ed started to scratch himself.
"I feel weird guys; I think I'm allergic to hagfish." Said Ed as purple lumps pop out all over his skin, and his face turns remarkably fish-like. The rest of his body immediately followed.
"FISH FACE! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Wally screamed as he tried to run away, but was unable to because of his overstuffed trousers.
Abby actually fainted on sight as Nazz freaked out even further.
"Can somebody scratch my scales?" Ed asked smiling.
Capital G and Omnimon were about present their own reactions of shock and disgust but before they did, they both looked over to see White Tiger staring at Ed, drooling with a knife and fork suddenly in each of his hands. Capital G quickly grabbed White Tiger's right arm and Omnimon grabbed White Tiger's left arm as they started to hold him back as he tried to lunge out at Ed.
"No man! The kid is friend! Not food!"
"Just a bite!" White Tiger screamed.
"Calm down!" Omnimon shouted.
"FISH!"
