Now... ON WITH THE STORY!POV MARCO
"STAR!" I scream. "Let's get that plan going now!" I hear Red laughing at me.
"Block it out." I mumble. "Block it out!"
Suddenly, I feel something spring-like under my feet. I fly up into the air and become eye level with Red. I smile and swing my sword-bow at her. I hit and she flys back, then I flip back onto the wall.
"Wow Marco," Star gasps. "You got some cool ninja moves!"
"Yeah." I agree. "Your powers have gotten a lot more... Under control!"
"Aw thanks!" I smile her usual Star smile. Man how I've missed the real Star. "I was taught by a great wizard names Treetop."
"DO NOT SAY HIS NAME IN MY PRESENCE!" Red booms as she flys through the heavy clouds and thunder.
"Marco I thought you killed her!"
"Me too." I mumble.
"YOU CANT KILL ME WITH ONE BLOW." Red cackles.
"How about three?" Someone muttered behind me and three knives fly into the Red, turning her into black smoke.
"I have a feeling that didn't do it." I mutter. I turn to see Jade and Adam behind me.
"Those shadow giants were easier to kill than you thought." Adam punches his hand.
"Jason swiped in and saves him three times." Jade sighs.
"HE DIDNT SAVE ME HE HELPED ME!" Adam argues. "AND I DIDNT EVEN NEED HELP!"
Jade sighs and places her head in he hand.
"Where did Red go?" I growl loudly. "I still have to kill her."
"I haven't seen her." Jason mutters he climbs up, scythe strapped back on his back.
"Did you rescue people?" Star asks.
Jason shoots her a nasty look, "No I just came back here all happy because I didn't save the royal family and all of their servants."
"Woah cool! How did you do that?" Star looks amazed at him as I roll my eyes.
"His scythe can cut into another dimensions like your scissors, genius." Adam grumbles.
"Yeah they are resting peacefully on the White Planet." Jason nods.
"Seriously did you grow up under a rock?" Jade laughs. "These are real weapons, sweety. We are real warriors so learn from the best."
"Guys let's calm down." I interrupt. "We still need to find Red."
"Right." Jason nods.
"Marco," Star chews her lip, "I don't think killing Red would be a good move."
"Huh?" I question angrily .
"I mean... She's still a girl. And sure she's done some bad things but-"
"I'm killing her Star." I snap. "End of discussion." I walk off.
These are the times when I didn't miss the real Star.POV RED
I stand in front of the old cottage where I spent most of my childhood. And then I do something unexpected for most people. Instead if burning down the cottage be smash it to bits, I knock.
"C'mon in Star." The voice calls. "I knew you'd be back."
"Close." I admit as I blast open the door and stare at the old man. "But I'm a much stronger witch."
"Hello Red." The man nods. I wrinkle my nose, how someone could change in a few years. He once had brown and red hair and wore a beautiful black suit with a new white rose every day. Now he had white hair and wore a green suit. How... Weird
"It's been a while." I snap. "I seem you moved onto a new pupil."
"Red what have you done!" He sighs. "I warned you not to give into that stupid arm."
"Your fix of my broken arms was completely dependent on me never getting mad." I laugh. "How stupid."
"I saw only good in you." He snaps. "Where did I go wrong?"
"Maybe the day you said hi to a little girl capable of destroy a forest instead of killing her!" I pound my fist on the table.
"I thought I could change you."
"You thought wrong!" I laugh "who is stupid enough to add more evil to an unstable girl just fix a stupid arm."
"I was a fool."
"And to think that you would take in the girl that made your last student evil. What are the odds?"
"I-"
"Wanted to change her."
"Well-"
"Haven't you learned anything!?" I growl as shadow arms breakthrough the earth and grab him.
"Please... Red."
"I didn't go back to my family for quite a while because I couldn't deal with telling them that I killed my mom." I snarl. He gasps as I make my grip tighter. "But I was wrong. I wasn't the one who killed her. No the thing that killed her is the reason she brought us kids here in the first place. Do you know why that was?"
"I can't say I do!" He chokes as a shadow arm grabs his throat. Pure rage was flowing through me. It wasn't a feeling I wasn't used to.
"The reason my mom came to Mewni was to find my dad. Because he left her. Isn't that funny? So technically my dad killed my mom."
"Red-" he coughs.
"Silence. My dad killed my mom. I didn't." I walk towards him. "You know I'm a big believer in eye for an eye."
"Please-" he gags.
"So here it is. The other eye." I clench my fists and the shadow hands clench down on his throat. I walk away and here his body land on the floor.
"Well that dragged on a little longer than I thought. Oh well, he should have known better than to leave my mom." I mutter as I set the cottage on fire. "But that only takes care of my parents. Get ready Star, my brother and sisters need you dead for them to rest in peace." I leave the house, the fire not hurting me in the slightest. As I stroll down the path with loud footsteps, I smile. I wanted the entire forest to know I'm hear. As I walk, a white wolf with three eyes looks at me.
"WHAT!?" I shout and it runs away. "Pathetic creature." And I continue walking, my goal getting closer. I walk around a lake and into the woods. I hear an unsettling growl behind me.
"I'm not a bad person." I laugh, "I just disposed of that evil person who was living in your woods!"
"She has a point." One of them growls.
"I used to live here long ago, but I didn't hurt any of you, unlike the king."
"This lady makes sense." Another agrees.
"C'mon out." I smile. "And together we shall dispose of the last remaining hunter alive, and you shall all live in peace."
They come out, little gremlin-things that walk on all fours. They have long dragon tails and spider eyes.
"What should we do first?" One growls.
"Hmm." I throw my hand into the air and they fly up. "One two..." I smile as I count. Thy fall, crashing on their necks and dying just like that.
"Fourteen." I mumble as I walk away, "a new record." I can feel my power over whelming my head. It hurts, but I don't mine. To get power you must make sacrifices,
"Isn't that right," I look back and see smoke rising from the forest. "Treetop."
