It was quiet, the forests of pine. I got out of the castle to avoid Star's quote-unquote "date" with Tom. Honestly, I have no real issue with it, but still it's all new. Jealousy? Yep, got it and a critical case of it. But I cant help but feel that coming here. . . Was a mistake. Earth or Mewni. . . The sunsets are still the same. The orange light touching the rising dust in the gaps of the tree line was a great view, and the skies orangey blue started to fade, as the darkness set in. I. . . Should get back. And back to reality, flicked my blue Cape off my legs and I got up from the base of the pine tree and began walking. Wait. . . Which way. . . Oh man.

I walked aimlessly from the castle, so I tried to walk aimlessly back. I left little tracks behind me as I came here so my best chance was to pick a direction and walk, and walk. Light faded as time passed, and the growing darkness was pressing, I couldn't remember any of it, none of it.

'Grah!' I heard, no idea what it was or whom, 'hah!'

But it was loud, and I could hear it get louder as I moved. I continued on, the tree's spacing's increased and I was moving towards a clearing, and there I saw her. . . Why did it have to be her. The clearing was large, in the centre of it was a large stump, resting on it was a blazing red torch on a stand, and standing next to it was her. Orange hair, freckles, a blue tunic, and casts on each arm: Higgs. . . Why Higgs? She stood beside the stump, axe in hand, and beside her was a pile of short cut logs. She reached down, picked up a log, placed it on the stump and Whack! The log split in two and topped off the stump, she picked up one half and chopped it again.

'Ha. . . You like that?' she said as she picked up a quarter, 'well there's more!'

Is she. . . Talking to herself?

'How does that feel huh?' chop, 'thats right, Higgs cant be stopped, no nerd can stop me!'

Yeah, she is. I sat behind a tree, considering my options. She may be crazy but she's the only person who can help me. . . But she does hate me.

'Yeah, that's right, there'll be more tomorrow' Oh no, shes leaving, do something!'

I stepped out from behind the tree and walked up slowly while she was preoccupied gathering what she chopped.

'Ok, I'll get back, finish the fire. . .' she stood up, kindling in both arms with the axe resting on top, ' . . . And rub all my good work in Sir. Slicers fa- FACE!'

I froze, she saw me and all I could do was make like a deer.

'Hi. . . Higgs. . .' that. . . was pathetic.

'. . . YOU!' she yelled, throwing down the kindling and taking up the axe, 'it was a bad idea to try sneak up on me. . .'

'Well I wouldn't say sneaking. . . Just didn't want to scare you.' I tried to defend myself.

'Well. . .' she said as she grabbed the torch, 'I still want some payback, so I'm gonna pretend you did.'

'Higgs please, I dont want to fight-' i didn't get a chance to finish, she started to full on run at me.

What do I do? Fight? Run? How can I. . .

She swung the axe, I caught it in my right, and the torch in my left and held her back. She was angry, very angry. What can I do. . .

'Higgs. . . Please-' she kicked my foot and pushed me over, she raised the axe to strike, 'HIGGS IM SORRY!'

She froze.

'Higgs. . . I'm sorry, please I. . . Dont know where I am. . . Please help. . .' I said as I got up slowly, I sighed, 'please put down the axe already, I. . . You dont need to dismember me.'

'. . . Help you? Why should I?' she asked, pointing the axe at me.

'I. . . Am going to appeal to your better nature?' i suggested,but she seemed unfazed, 'you can. . . Ridicule me as much as you want.'

She lowered the axe, walked away from me, gathered the kindling and walked to me.

'Here.' She threw the kindling into my lap, its late and we went get far at night, so. . . Pull your weight and you can bunk with me.'

'Oh and nerd, dont get lost, I will leave you.' She said as she marched off.

'. . . Yes ma'am.' I mused as I followed behind her.

'whats a ma'am?'
