Mewni Castle
Chapter 5: Reunited Legion
I entered my room and paced back and fourth not believing that Marco is actually back. Never thought i would see him again to be honest but I'm over the moon that he's finally here. I went into my closet and changed from my dress into something more 'casual' as Marco would call it. I walked out expecting to see Marco sitting on my bed already...but no Marco. I didn't want to go out and rush him so i stayed in my room and looked at my wand for a bit. Someone knocked on my door
"Can i come in?" Hearing Marco's voice i opened the door and let him in. He walked in and sat on his bed. I noticed that he was wearing gloves on his hands, it wasn't cold in here so i wondered why he had them on but i pushed the thought aside.
"You huh...wanted to talk to me" I walked over and sat next to him.
"So you're gonna help us fight this?" He nodded but didn't say anything which concerned me
"You ok Marco?" He looked at me and smile
"Yeah..I'm just happy to see you" I could tell by the sound of his voice that's not why he was quite
"Marco you cant fool me" I gave him a sly brow and he sighed
"Star I've been through alot ever since i was banned here, now that I'm back i don't really know how to react" I rested my head on his shoulders as he rubbed my hair.
"Its ok Marco, my mom knows you didn't kill my Dad" I began to well up with tears and marco hugged me
"I'm so sorry star, i never wanted anybody to get hurt" He looked at his hand
"Even Heckapoo" I hugged him tighter never wanting to let go. He put his check on my head.
"You wanna watch a movie?" I looked up at him
"You know we don't have electricity here right" he smiled and pulled out his laptop from his bag with 3 different Macky Han movies.
"AWW YES PUT IT IN PUT IT IN!" He smiled and put in the movie and we began watching it, while laying down on the bed. I rested my head on his chest while he rubbed my hair as we watched the movie. I wasn't a huge fan of those type of a movies but i didn't care what we watched i just wanted to spend time with...my best friend?. I thought about if we were ever gonna date and are we now, i mean we've treated each other like couples, but i thought...are we a couple. I looked at Marco as he watched the movie.
"Hey Marco"
"Mhm star?"
"Are we a couple or just friends" I saw his face change fast from relax to nervous
"Huh do you want to be a couple, cause if you do I'm totally cool with that but if not I'm ok with that too i just don't want to ruin our friendship-" I kissed Marco hopefully answering his question. He looked at me and smiled.
"That answer you?" He nodded and kissed me back.
"Yes it does" We layed back down and watched the movie until he fell asleep. My mom opened the door.
"Star we need to...oh" She looked at me and Marco watching a movie.
"Sorry mom i was just-"
"Its ok star don't worry you two look...cute together" I blushed from her comment
"Thanks" She smiled at me
"Well we will be giving a speech to the people tomorrow addressing recent events, so i need you two up early"
"Sure mom ill wake him up tomorrow" She walked over and kissed my forehead.
"Goodnight my princess"
"Goodnight Mom" She smiled and walked away closing the door. At that moment i felt as if i had everything, a loving parent, great friends and Marco. I was more happy than I'd been for a long time. I layed my head back on his chest and fell asleep at peace...something i haven't been able to do in a long time.
The next morning i woke up and looked at Marco who was still out cold. I smiled and leaned over and kissed him assuming he'd probably be out more for a little while. I got up trying not to make to much noise and began to clean my room before mom walked in and lectured me about how easy it is to keep your room clean even though she knew i wasn't the clean type. I walked out of my room after cleaning and looked for mom around the castle. I found her siting down in the meeting room with Lesa and Romby. 'Guess tom isn't up yet' I though to myself as i sat down at the table.
"Good morning star how did you sleep"
"Like I've never sleep before, its the first time I've slept a full night" Mom looked at me confused
"You and Marco didn't...do anything..right?" I was shocked she even asked that question.
"What no mom we just had a little movie night" I said glaring at her
"Just making sure star, you cant get mad at me for worrying"
"Marco isn't like that mom" She nodded and hugged me
"I know star" She sat back down
"Go wake up Tom and Marco" I nodded and got up
"Uhh where is tom anyway?" Mom looked at me as if i just said something stupid
"Take a wild guess" I laughed and walked out of the room and let Lesa and Mom talk about "Grown up stuff". Tom was sleeping on the throne, something he always used to do when he would stay over we got used to it after awhile. I walked to him on the throne and punched him in the arm
"OWW...star why did you-" I only glared at him and he knew what it meant
"Ugh i'll be in the meeting room in a minute" He said rubbing his arm. I walked to my room to wake up marco, i opened the door to my surprise he's already up.
"Oh Marco you're up already" Something about him bothered me though. I looked closely and saw that his eyes weren't the dark brown i loved, it was purple. I wiped my eyes and looked again and they were back to normal
"Marco you ok?" He looked at me
"Oh hey star sorry i was still waking up" He walked up and hugged me.
"Sweet dreams?" He asked
"Yeap..all about you" He smiled and kissed my head
"Time to get the day started hopefully this speech can calm the people down"
"Yeah me too, I'm sure it'll be fine" We both walked to the meeting room and saw everyone there. We sat down and mom looked at Marco
"Morning Marco"
"Morning Moon" I looked at the both wondering what that was all about, i guess they still have bad blood.
"So in a few we're all gonna be heading down to the front of the castle and Moon and star will address the people and there concerns" Lesa said looking at all of us.
"Now because you're known as the Traitor of Mewni Marco you're gonna have to wear a mask" Marco looked up at Lesa...i could tell he was mad
"No..they'll see my face and know that I'm not what they think i am" Lesa glared at Marco
"Your choice then" Lesa looked at mom
"Sound good Moon" Mom was looking at Marco when Lesa asked her
"Yes that is it" We stood up and walked to the front of the castle. While walking i looked at Marco who had a straight face on...he looked so cute.
"Marco are you sure you'll be ok out there" He looked at me and smiled
"Yeah ill be fine plus if anything happens we can always run inside right?"
"Ok just a warning they like to throw sand when their mad" Me and laughed as we walked outside to see 100s of people waiting for there queen. Mom and i walked up to stand and began to speak.
"I know you're sick of the wars, the destruction, the death, but so are we and fighting us isn't going to help...let us join forces again to make Mewni a safe place for our children and a place of peace...a heaven". Everyone looked at each other in the crowds and began to agree with her words. They didn't see marco cause he was standing in the back with his hoodie on.
"Let us become a one nation, one Kingdom, We are all Mewman lets fight for something good, something that will benefit ALL of us" The crowd was now roaring and cheering, i didn't believe that they were happy with her words. I thought maybe there wasn't going to be a civil war after all.
"As citizens of Mewni let us-" Lesa ran past me
"MOON WATCH OUT!" Lesa jumped and caught an arrow headed to mom.
"Mom!?" I ran to her while Marco pulled out his sword
"Mom you ok" She nodded and looked at Lesa. The citizens were running around scared for their lives...who could blame them.
"Thank you Lesa" Lesa didn't look up, she only looked at the arrow she caught.
"Oh my god..." Marco ran up to her and looked at the arrow
"MOON GET STAR OUT OF HERE NOW!" Marco looked at the road and saw a knight...with a Red Sun on its Chest Plate.
"MOON GO!" Marco and Lesa went into there battle stance but the knight disappeared into the crowd. We all ran inside and told the guards to calm everyone down.
'Marco what's going on" He looked at Lesa and walked towards me
"Star you wouldn't understand, but incase you do...That knight was a Red Sun" The room went silent. I knew who they were, Lesa used to tell me stories of how strong and fast there group was. But Marco knew the story almost as well as Lesa. Mom though was more shocked than i was
"The Knights of Mewni?" Lesa nodded at Mom. She sat down and rubbed her head still in shock of what or who she just saw
"Lesa was that Alex or O'Ryan or...Kalex" Lesa looked down at the floor
"I...don't know only we can put that armor on so one of them is alive...but how". Marco looked at Mom
"I need to talk to Eclipsa...Now" Moon looked at Marco and I
"She already knows Queen" Romby said
"Ill uncrystal her head just give me time" Marco sat next to Mom and started to rub his eyes
"Marco what are going to do they're a HUGE threat" Marco looked at Mom
"I don't know but i do know...that the Red Suns have returned..."
