Her Song {A StarCo Fanfiction}

Chapter Eighteen

" I think Earth is a pretty great place~
That's saying something, because I come from outer-"

"Stop! Cut!" Came the experated sigh of Tom, who was massaging his temples miserably. "Geez! This is meant to be a happy, upbeat song; so why're you sounding down and deppressed for?"
Star sighed and raised an eyebrow as she looked around outside the clear glass that surrounded the recording booth she was standing in.
The same guards that had 'transported' both of the blonds to the recording booth at the redhead's request about thirty minutes ago were standing by every exit with a stern look on their faces.

"How do you expect me to sing an upbeat tune in such a depressing place?" She asked Tom, angrily.
The redhead shook his head.
"Isn't singing your specialty, Star?" He asked, tapping away on his expensive, black smartphone.
"It used to be. Now let me out of this stupd booth! I'm not singing anymore songs! Ever!" Star announced defiantly, rage raising in her voice yet again.
"Well, personally, I was going to force you to sing all of my favourite songs right now; but Toffee has just finished seizing the castle, so I guess your encore will have to wait for a little while"

Star's blood ran cold.
Seize the castle?
But there was only one castle in the whole of Mewni and that was the one that her parents lived in!

"We should hurry. C'mon, SB" Tom said patronizing her yet again; just as a bulky-looking guard picked up the princesses and threw her over his shoulder.
Star didn't even possess the energy to fight back; the blond just stayed put as she was transported from the studio to Tom's black limo, which was parked outside.
"E-Everything will be okay, right?" Sear asked, sadly; as Star realised that her doppleganger had been slung over the guard's other shoulder.
Usually, in a situation like this; Star would tell her twin that everything was going to be just fine, but at this exact moment in time, the princesses just couldn't find it in herself to lie to Sear...

"No! It's not...I'm so sorry Sear; this is all my fault..." she replied, glumly. The Mewman princesses saw no real reason to hide l
Suprisingly, the blond's doppleganger didn't even shed a single tear, she seemed to be somewhat...different...
"No, it's my fault too, Star...I mean, I know that my crying and constant pestering never helps the situation; so I won't do it anymore...I don't Marco to see me cry anymore...Even if he is dea-"

The rather deppresing conversation between the two blondes was cut short by the guard that was carrying them.
The over-sized grunt opened the door to Tom's limosine and launched the princessess into a row of soft, comfortable black leather seats.
"Fasten your seatbelts, girlies. It's going to be a long ride..." he grunted, lumbering over to the passenger seat and making himself comfortable.
"Now, let's see..." Tom began, as he tapped the interactive screen of his vehicle's GPS system with a short black stylus. "We want to be at the castle really quickly, so I better take the shortest route, right guys?"
The redhead looked back at his two passengers for their consent on the matter, but he just received two, icy glares from them.
To be completely honest, Star was more concerned about the fact that Tom was in the driver's seat of the car, even though the rich kid's closest experience to driving was in a video game...
Both of the blondes grimaced and buckled their seatbelts, anticipating the most uncomfortable car trip of their lives...

But it wasn't just Star and Sear who were having a whole load of trouble, all the way over in Echo Creek, Marco wasn't exactly enjoying himself either...
