SVTFOE oneshot 12: How Miss. Heinous should have worked part 2

2.9.2, the “Better Than Nothing” apartments

Thunder and lightning roared outside of the room at the “Better than Nothing” apartment complex. The furniture was rotted and mold-covered. The hinges were rusty, if not already fallen off. The roof and floor leaked water so much you would be hard-pressed to find a dry surface, except the bathroom without any plumbing.

The only things in the room that looked remotely cared for were a salon dryer chair to the side and a large cybernetically enhanced lizardman standing in front of the two miserable-looking owners of the room

Miss. Heinous nodded at him. “Thanks for meeting us here today, Rasticore. We have a problem with some rogue princesses.”

The just-named Rasticore took a step toward the former headmistress and her abused sidekick.

“I heard. You have a price on your head from two dozen kingdoms for everything from short-changing your staff and false advertising up to abusing nobles.”

A large grin then grew on his face. “There is even one from the MHC itself for your use of an illegal Life Drainer. So, give me one reason I shouldn’t turn you and your friend into one of them for the massive reward?”

“Beg your pardon sir, but you also have a price on your head from the MHC’s department of interdimensional travel for your illegal modification of dimensional scissors. You can’t turn us in without risking yourself as well.”

Rasticor just shrugged. “I can always hold a bidding war among the kingdoms that want you. Heck, one of them might decide to hand you over to the MHC after they are done with you.”

Miss Heinous shot Genimi a nasty look. “You oaf! There is a perfectly reasonable explanation for why he will do this for us!” She then turned to Rasticor and smiled sinisterly as she pulled out something from her pocket and showed it to him.

It was two simple coins, one gold and one silver. The gold one had a teardrop on its face with the phrase “one for death” above it. The silver one had a spider web on its face with the phrase “one to bind” above it.

On the bottom of both was Rasticor’s name in glowing letters.

“You paid for my sanctuary from those hunting you years ago with some of these. Now I am cashing these two in.”

Rasticor scowled at her before nodding. “By guild law, I must accept. Who are the targets?”

Gemini stepped forward and handed over a pair of pictures held together by a bobby pin to him. One was a security camera still-frame of two princesses leading many others through the gates of St. Olgas, while the second was of the two standing next to a Ponyhead.

Rasticore just smiled at this one. “If you want me to take out Ponyhead for you, consider it a free-be. I can’t stand that unicorn.”

Miss. Heinous scowled at him. “Destroy the blond one, and bring the dark-haired one to me. I don’t care about Ponyhead, but anything you do to her should be considered done on your own time.”

Rasticore frowned but nodded before inserting the bobby pin into his tracker and heading out (after some difficulty getting his chain-saw scissors to work).

Heinous then reached into her pocket and pulled out a compact to look at her reflection, seeing a few wrinkles that weren’t there before.

“Looks like it's time for a touch-up.” She then went over to the pantry and opened the door.

Within it were a dozen glass canisters with a glowing white light emanating from them. Each had a picture of a princess on it, with a name and date under it. The dimmest of them had a picture of the elephant-faced princess, labeled as “Princess Smooshy.”

She then grabbed the canister walked over to Salan hair dryer chair and inserted the canaster into its back before sitting down and lowering the dome onto her head. After hitting a button on the armrest, the dome expanded to engulf her entire head, while a tube leading to the back began to bulge as if something large was squeezing through it into the dome.

After about 30 seconds, it dinged to signal that the dome could be removed. When Miss. Heinous exposed herself again, the wrinkles on her face were gone and a few gray hairs had disappeared. She took out her compact to examine herself again, frowning at the image presented to her.

“I can’t believe I am reduced to rationing the life force I have to keep myself beautiful. I should be bathing in it every night and looking like a goddess. Not dipping my finger in and wiping away wrinkles.”

Gemini then walked to the back and removed the canaster Heinus had inserted earlier, showing that it was now empty.

“That was the last of Princesses Smooshy’s life force. We are now down to the last 11 canasters.”

He then picked up a clipboard on the counter and wrote something down on it.

“Based on the rate of consumption you have been going on compared to the strength of the life forces in each jar, if we do not resupply, we will run out a little before the next stump day.”

Heinous paled before grabbing the clipboard from his hands.

“You fool. Did you forget to consider Princess Marco’s strong life force?”

He just nodded, used to the abuse in a way no one should be.

“If we didn’t have Hers, then we would need to restock around mid-Qork. Her lifeforce alone doubles that time.”

Heinous carefully went over the math before slamming the board to the ground.

“We have to get her Gemini. Draining her dry alone will keep us in stock for the next 50 years!”

He then reached down and picked up the board while Miss. Heinous stomped around the room.

“That will let us wait until the kingdoms cool off enough for us to bring our services to them once more under new names. Then we can start rebuilding the reform school.”

Gemini then began to smile.

“Oh, Miss Heinus. I cannot wait to recapture our former glory. It has been a long time since I last ate.”

His stomach then growled, letting everyone know that he was not exaggerating in the slightest.

During 2.19.1

“This is the princess who ruined my life. That’s right, Princess Marco. I recognize you. Even with your super-cute new haircut.”

“Ahh.”

“What is going on here?”

“This lady tied me to a chair, and tried to brainwash me.”

“That is a gross exaggeration. Your child has wronged me, and I’m not going anywhere until justice is served.”

“Are you sure about that Miss Heinous?”

Suddenly everyone was looking at Star, who was holding a compact that was pointed at her. Miss. Heinous just scoffed at that.

“Just because I’m an adult doesn't me that I don’t know what a compact is and what it can do. How is calling someone or taking pictures going to get me out of here or save your friend’s life?”

Star just smiled. “You do know that the MHC has wanted posters of you, right?”

Miss. Heinous’s eyes began to widen at that as portals began to form in the living room. Suddenly 4 heavily armed guards with crystal shields and swords popped out of them.

“In the name of the MHC, you are under arrest, Miss. Heinous!”

Miss. Heinous quickly got out of her chair and ran out the front door, with Genimi following her as fast as he could. The guard with a red hat went over to the civilians to see if they were alright while the other three chased after her.

“We’re fine.”

“Thank you.”

“Don’t worry about me, just get her!”

“I’m fine. Arrest her!”

The red hat guard just shook her head at Marco and Star. “Policy says that when a known dangerous person is nearby, one guard at least needs to stay with the civilians in case they circle back around.”

A revolving chainsaw was heard out front, followed by the tell-tale chime of a portal being opened, after which one of the guards walked back in.

“She got to the car and escaped. The others are following her as we speak.”

Marco slammed the ground in anger.

“Darn it! How did she even find us in the first place?”

Mr. and Mrs. Diaz turned toward Marco with questions on their face.

“Marco? What is going on?”

He sighed before getting up and sitting down in a chair.

“Ok, a while ago I and Star went to visit her friend Ponyhead in St. Olga’s school for wayward Princesses….”

He then began to tell them all about what happened, with interjections from Star clarifying things. The guards were busy writing things down in their notebooks, talking with each other, and waiting patiently for Marco to finish.

“Then when we got back home Star called the MHC and reported her to get the school shut down forever. When they found out about the Life Drainer, they descended on the school in force to shut it down. This is the first time we have seen her since then, so I have no idea how she got here.”

The red-hatted guard stood forward at that. “If you are willing to help us fill out our reports, I can fill in the rest of the story.”

The Diaz’s nodded together.

“After we got the call, agents from the MHC and each of the kingdoms with a princess attending at the time were sent to investigate. After about 30 minutes we had enough evidence to permanently shut down the school and have all the non-robot teachers arrested for abuse. The princesses were rounded up and returned to their home kingdoms with full reports being given to their parents. Miss. Heinous and her assistant Genimi escaped before we could get there, however. They have been on the run ever since.”

Star just shot her a look. “How could she have gotten away with that for so long?”

The guard just shrugged. “I don’t know, I am just a guard. I just know this much due to being the agent's escort for the inspection.”

She then walked over to the Diaz and sat down in front of them while holding a clipboard. “Now, if you could describe what happened in your own words…”

Star went over to Marco and sat down on the floor next to him.

“Hay, are you ok?”

He just sighed. “Physically, yes. I’m just scared that one of our adventures came back to threaten my parents.” He then looked around at the living room. “First Toffee, now Miss. Heinous. What if next time someone gets hurt?”

Star briefly shared Marco’s downcast look before perking up a little bit. “If you want me and Mom could look at adding some magical defenses.”

Marco smiled at that. “Sounds great Star. How about we call her after the guard leaves?”

“Um, excuse me?”

Both teens turned to look at the other guard who walked up to them. “Are you Princess Marco?”

Marco just nodded in confusion. The guard responded by taking out a poster with Marco in his dress and wig with the caption “It’s not criminal to be an individual” boarding him.

“Could you sign this for my daughter, she is a big fan. Her room is filled with your merchandise.”

“Wait a minute. You have merchandise?”

“Yeah. I get a $650 royalty Check every month.” He then turned back to the guard. “What is her name?”

After signing it the guard thanked him and walked back to the others. The red-hatted one then stood up.

“Well, I think we have everything we need.” She then handed Star two cards. “If she ever comes back, call that number on the card with a badge and I will come running. The card with the house is for a home security company that I have had success with. They can help you get your house set up to keep her out.”

Star nodded. “Thanks, but I think me and my mom can set up the home protection ourselves. The Butterfly royal family has access to several security systems the general public doesn’t.”

The guard just shrugged at that. “Can’t argue with that.”

With that, the guards took out one of their compacts and made a call.

“Steven? Did you get her?”

“Negative sarg. We lost her after the 3rd dimension jump. I already contacted Heckapoo, but she said that the chainsaw they are using is made from several scissors that were broken into shards for the teeth. This makes the signature almost impossible to track unless she can get 5 minutes to study the thing.”

“Of course, it couldn’t be that easy. Take note of where you traveled though and where you lost her. After that, head back to base. She may be long gone, but if we can figure out how she is moving through the dimensions we might be able to figure out which kind of scissors her chainsaw is using.”

She then nodded at the Diaz’s and Star before her and the other guard made a portal and walked through it.

Everyone in the living room just sat there in silence for a while before Rafile broke the silence.

“Well, this was a real eye-opener.”

Looks like we are getting another multi-parter, this time focusing on Miss. Heinous.

I wanted to give a good reason for women on the run and forced to stay in the cheapest hotel in the multi-verse as a way of hiring a very pricy-looking mercenary while also preventing said mercenary from trying to just turn her over for the reward and clout with multiple kingdoms.

The coins are just because I like John Wick.

I am also following through on the “Marco has a strong life force” thread and giving another reason for Heinus to be devoting so much of her time and limited resources toward getting him beyond revenge.

As for Star calling the cops on Heinous, WHY didn’t she do that in the original show? She had wanted posters printed out (in the Star and Marco guide), so call in the magical cops to deal with her.

As for the chainsaw being difficult to track, the Guide said that Rasticor was wanted for altering dimensional scissors. When I thought about that, I realized that if you use multiple different scissors to make the chainsaw, it could theoretically make it harder to track you down when you use it. This justifies why he would use something that looks no more effective than normal scissors and has the downside of needing to be revved up and uses gas.

I decided for my New Year's Resolution to do one fanfic chapter a week for all of 2024. Who knows how long I will be able to keep this up, but next week's fanfic chapter is up on my Patreon. This is also being posted on Fanfic.com, AO3, and Tumbler.
