Finn and Jake were within their tree house, just relaxing and waiting for, well for anything really, anything to come and to happen. Things have been rather quiet these past few days. No Ice King kidnappings, monsters either hiding or in deep sleep. And every Kingdom in OOO seemed to be in a state of peace. Finn let out a tired sigh, he relaxed onto the couch. Finn has changed from time, he still wore shorts, but they went past his knees and had more pockets and these allowed for better running and stretching then his other ones, he still wore a blue shirt, had his bear hat on, but let a few strands of hair loose from time to time. He was taller and more mature, fitted for an 18 year old hero. Jake was next to him, playing his viola, Finn letting his mouth widen letting the music bore him more. The sound of their phone ringing stopped Jake's playing, Jake stretched his hand towards the phone and bringing it back to him. "Hello, oh hi princess...okay...well be right there." Jake said hanging up the phone. "Hey Finn, Bubblegum called us to the Candy-" "Let's go." Finn said enthusiasticly cutting his brother off and running out the door. Even with time Finn still had that enthusiastic feature that never seemed to die off nor get old of. Jake placed his viola back and chased after his brother. Once Jake caught up with Finn and placed him on his back they made their way towards the Candy Kingdom. Finn and Jake made it past the kingdom's gates, and the change of atmosphere was noticeable, the once full of glee, joy filled, and happy Candy Kingdom were music could be heard from entering. Was now full of gloom, depression, and heartache, music replaced with mourning. Finn and Jake looked around to see the saddened looks on people's faces. Some crying, some sobbing and whimpering to others shoulders. "Hey, Jake what's up with the candy people?" Finn whispered to his brother's ear. "I got no idea, must be why Bubblegum called us, let's go." Jake said moving faster to the castle. Jake seeing the situation was crucial went through the window. Once they got there the stench of death hit their noses making them gag, and hold their breaths. They looked around to find moldy pizza boxes, broken flasks and science equipment, beakers filled liquids that overfilled and bubbled out of their containers. The sound of a ghostly groan caught them off guard. Finn grabbed his sword, while Jake hid behind Finn, scared what might be within the room. "Finn, Jake is that you?" Bubblegum's voice was heard, Finn lowered his sword. "Yes, PriNCESSS, OH." Finn yelled for the way Bubblegum looked. Her lab coat was covered in candy blood, her hair a living mess, she had bags under her eyes, and looked like she hasn't slept, eat, or even bathe in weeks. Finn contained himself from yelling at her for how she looked. Jake cringed at her sight. "Guys I know I look horrible. But there's more pressing matters at foot." Bubblegum affirmed them. "What is it PB?" Finn asked, trying not to throw up. "The candy people are dying." She told them, Finn and Jake's eyes widened and their attitudes turned to shook. "My people only have limited time, before they perish." "Tell us what you need Princess and we'll get it for you." Finn told her confidently. "I need you two to get a gem protected from he Crystal Eye, that gem shall be able to cure the sickness that seems to be spreading through out my kingdom." Princess told then went to a coughing fit. "We're on it Princess, come on Jake." Finn told as the two heroes went off towards the location of the Crystal Eye.
