"What should we do? Star's been kneeling there for 20 minutes now." the King asked the Queen.

"We should check if she's okay but we should apologize again to the host family first." the Queen replied as they made their way to the Diazs, who were in charge of finding transport.

"May I have a word with you?" she asked the Diazs and carried on after they nodded, "I know I apologized back in the facility but I have to say sorry again for what happened to your son." 

Mr Diaz spoke as he was trying to hold his tears from coming out, "It's okay but what worries me more now is the way Star's acting, you will fix her right? Maybe you can show her pictures of Marco, she really loved him."

"I'm sorry, could you repeat that, I think I misheard it."

"Uh... Star is dating Marco? You mean she never told you?"

Although the Queen was angry at Star for not telling her, due to her current state, the Queen decided to save the lecturing for later.

"*sigh* Marco's now, things were going so great..."

"Star!" a distant whisper snapped Star out of her daydream.

Star found herself  wandering around a crowded ballroom wearing what seems to be a red dress.

"How did I get here?" Star thought, "I need to get out!"

She realised she couldn't control her actions, she tried to stop walking and resist the forces making her move but failed. As she was starting to panic, she felt someone grabbing her hand and spinning her around. It was Marco in his mask and suit!

"Eh? This is exactly like the blood moon ball. It is!"

 The light of the blood moon shone on them and they started to dance to the music.

"Star." Marco said in a soft voice.

"Oh my gosh! Marco's alive, but how? I don't know, help me! I can't control my body! I can't speak!" Star thought to herself hoping Marco could read her thoughts.

"How did you know my name?" Star said in a dreamily voice.

"What?! I didn't say that! I'm being controlled!" Star screamed to Marco in her head.

"It's me!" Marco starts to lift up his mask, "Marco..."

"Star! Star!" she felt a tight slap on her face shortly after.

Unfortunately, Star was dreaming. Marco was still dead and Star had been kneeling for 30 minutes and her knees were very sore.

"Sorry I had to slap you dear, we tried every method to get you to respond and this was the last resort" the Queen said as she helped Star up and escorted her out of the crater, to the convoys of Humvees waiting for them.

 "Our troops have opened a portal back to our dimension a few kilometres from here because of the radiation here."

The Queen and Star entered a Humvee while the rest were in a different one.

"Okay, but I have 3 questions. First, how did we get these?" Star asked.

"One of the shelters was dedicated to transport vehicles, so we simply took them from the shelter."

"Alright, how did the Mewmans know we were stranded?"

"I always keep an emergency mirror with me, you should too."

"And may we drop by the Diaz house first? I wanna do something there."

"I knew you were going to say that, so I told the driver to stop there for as long as you need beforehand. But now I have a question for you, do you have a relationship with anyone?"
