Broken

Page 1-2 :: Chapter 1

Star stood in a very uncomfortable formal dress. The blue one she had wore once. It alerted her of her surroundings, and the grief that she was no longer on Earth.
She felt dull as the tone rang for Pony Head.

"B-Fly! Oh my gosh!" She heard a familiar voice say. Her bleak eyes looked forward, revealing a slightly older Pony Head in the mirror above her.

"Long time no see!" Pony Head said joyfully. "Things here at St.Olga's are going mad, like ever! But I don't give up."

"Hey girl, whats up?" Pony Head said, her scratchy voice now edging with a hint of worry. Her blue eyes focused on the bitter Star. "You look different! Is anything wrong there? Did the Earth Turd-ahem, Marco, upset you?!"

"Actually," Star said finally, even her voice was filled with sorrow and regret. "I'm not on Earth anymore..."

Three months earlier....

Star happily munched on some nachos, she loved "triangle food," and was happy she found this bowl just sitting in the kitchen. She ate them swiftly.

"STAAAAARRRRR!!!" Marco screamed through the house.

Star watched as, in a frizzy, Marco ran up to her and began to pace around. "S-Star?" Marco asked, and Star continued to eat the nachos.

"Listen, Marco!" Star demanded jokingly. "These nachos are evil and they took control of my brain! Trust me! I'm one of them now." Marco's face grew sweaty, and Star simpered. "What? Wasn't it credible as an excuse?"

"I think..... I have a date with Jackie!" Marco cried, ignoring the comment Star made.

In shock, Star spit out the nachos.

"No way!" Star said, reading the text message. "How could this happen?"

"I don't know!" Marco said defensively. "I gave up writing her several months ago..."

"So? Not answering?" Star asked smirking.

"I don't know what to say to her, you know?!" Marco asked.

"Why? You have a crush on her!" Star insisted.

"I'm not sure about my feelings anymore!" Marco said sadly. "I finally moved on! I'm at peace with it."

"Now, she's back! And caught me off guard!" Marco cried. "Maybe she just wants to go out as friends! Maybe not! I struggle between what is right in my own mind, and what is ethically and objectively good! Oh man! I'm saying a bunch of nonsense words!" By the end, sweat dripped horribly off Marco's face.

Star had an idea.
