Chapter 23

     Janna and I walk into the town square. The town seemed deserted. Nobody for miles. The lack of sound made this town seem eery.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" I shouted. My voice echoed.

"They've all left. They abandoned the towns, their homes, their belonging, everything. I couldn't leave. My grandfather made this house fifty years ago. I can't leave." A girls voice whispered.

"Where are you?" I squinted in the very dark town. The only light was a couple torches.

"I'm over hear." She whispered. A small light lit up in the corner of my eye. There was a girl holding a candle hiding behind a post. She was rocking back in forth, shaking from fear. She wore a black, silk dress. Her long, wavy hair was a red, almost blood colored. Her eyes were the same color as her hair. She had light purple skin and cherry red lips. She must of been around fourteen years old.

"Why did they leave?" I slowly towards her.

"They were ordered to. Queen Butterfly said that the monsters could overrun the town any day. They finished a battle a couple hours ago. It took six hours. We won, but the main monster didn't come. I think he is planning something big." He voice was shaky.

"Who's 'the main monster'?" Janna asked curiously. I heard a hint of fear in her voice.

"He goes by many names. King of Poison, The Bloody One, but his actual name is," she gulped. "Toffee." She shuttered.

I felt a chill up my spine when I heard his name. He captured me and almost crushed me to death, he made Star destroy her wand, when Star cut off his arm it grew back. He had a twisted grin and killed all of his monsters. And he survived the explosion?

"What's your name?" I changed the subject.

"Dagger Luciter." She admitted.

"That is an awesome first name. I wish my name was Dagger." Janna tried lighten the mood.

"Luciter, as in Tom Luciter?" I said stunned.

"Yeah he's my big brother." She moved her hair so I could see her horns. "He looks more like dad than mom. Dad has the third eye." She smiled when she talked about her family.

"I'm sorry your related to such a jerk." I apologized.

"He didn't always have an attitude and a tempter. Three years ago he was the nicest boy you could meet. He played the organ for the town every day and made people happy. He always picked flaming roses for his girlfriend. But we both, especially Thomas, went through a very awful experience. I didn't see it myself, bit Tom did." She explained.

"See what?" I asked.

"Well, three years ago tomorrow, Thomas and mother were talking by the fire. All of a sudden, the window breaks. A shadowy figure comes out. The figure came into the light, it was Toffee. Mother put up a good fight, but she was no match. He grabbed her by the waist and put a dagger into her heart. Thomas went through something big and terrifying. He didn't take grief well. His girlfriend, Queen Star Butterfly, tried to help him. He didn't let her. I witnessed him slap her across the face. That week I was told to flee the kingdom and live on Mewni in the house my grandfather built. I was told Toffee would come for me next. I haven't seen Thomas since." Dagger wiped a tear from her face.

"Oh, I'm sorry." I apologized.

"It's alright. Thomas had gotten better since then, father said so in a mirror message." She calmed down. "I forgot to ask, why are you people still in town?" Dagger asked, still a little shaky.

"We came from Earth to fight in the war. We are friends of the Queen."

"Earth? Are you the prince of Earth?" Dagger said puzzled.

"Yeah! This is Prince Marco of Earth!" Janna lied.

"Oh, your the one I saw in the paper. The one with the big red hat. Was that your royal outfit?" She asked.

"Yeah it was." Janna laughed.

We heard footsteps coming in our direction. We all ran into Dagger's house and his under her table. I glanced out the window. It was just Mewman knights.

"It's just knights." I felt relived.

"Thank grave." Dagger's shoulders un-tensed. "You two can take shelter here if you like."

"Thanks." I thanked her.
