(Comet's pov)

Knowing that my secret is out and I can't lie myself out of it, I guess it would be best to get the weight that I've been hiding for 2 years off of my shoulders and prepare for the worst.

"You should prepare for what I'm about to tell you cause it wont be pretty." I said as I leaned against the drawer

"What do you mean?" Star asks

"In 10 years your future will be in ruins." I replied

"How do you know that?" Marco asks

"Let me put it this way..."

(Flash back) (2 years ago)

2 years ago right after you left for earth I was practicing some spells near the forest of certain death. I did a spell that summoned a ball of light and sent it flying into the forest, and then suddenly the clouds in the sky started gathering together and they turned dark and a portal opened up. I ran to where the portal opened while avoiding getting killed by the things that lived in the forest until I reached the center and saw a strange man on all four with 2 black spears sticking out of his body. One in his left shoulder and the other in his left rib cage.

"Hey what happened?" I ask as rushed over to him

When he turned around it was like I was starring at a mirror, but he looked older. It was absolutely shocking, but mostly horrifying for the condition he was in. I saw black veins spreading to his neck and his entire left arm.

"Perfect timing." he said as he struggled to get up

"Y-y-you're m-me." I said stuttering as I still couldn't believe what I was seeing

The older me continued trying to get up, but I gave him a hand by putting his arm over my shoulders.

"Just take to me to that tree." He said while pointing the tree in front of us

As I made my way to the tree, I noticed that his finger tips were all black and when I looked at his face he was smiling.

"This is kinda ironic, I was hoping I could look in better conditions before we could meet." He let out a chuckle, but it made him wince in pain

I helped him lay against the tree, and he zapped the head of the spears with his wand and pulled out the handle letting his blood spill out.

"Listen, Comet. I don't have much time left before I bleed out or this demon venom kills me, but you need to know that the future is at stake." He said before he started searching in his shirt

He pulled out the necklace that I have right now and when he opened it, I couldn't believe what I was looking at. It was the picture of the future king and queen of mewni along with their princess.

"Is that Star?" I ask in disbelief

"And her husband Marco and their 5 months old daughter." He replied with painful groan

"But what happened to them and to you?" I ask

"Tom, happen. He started a war in mewni, and no one not even the rulers of mewni made it." He replied

"But you did, so maybe there's a way to prevent that future from happening if we do." I said with a hopeful tone

"I'm afraid in my condition there isn't a lot I can do, and I doubt that I would get far." He said in disappointment

The black veins completely covered his entire neck and I heard him gasping for air.

"I gotta take you back to the castle." I said, as I tried to pull him up
