Author's Notes:

This story is set after Another Human. I know the other story isn't finished, but I wanted to do this story so badly. I will finish the other story, that I will promise you.

Disclaimer: I own the OCs, not AT.

Enjoy


It was a nice day for Kane, who was walking down the icy, frozen paths of the Ice Kingdom. He wanted to go there ever since Finn told him about the region. Finn also warned him of the mad, maniacal monarch who ruled the territory. Kane didn't really care much about that, as long as he made snow men and pet some penguins. He wore his green scarf and his dark green jacket as he traversed down the frozen stone path.

As he walked through a small forest, he came across a strange sight. There was a snow golem and a fire wolf pup playing fetch with each other near a barn. They looked so happy together as they played "fetch", even though the golem was almost reduced to a pile of slushy snow every time the fire pup brought back a flaming stick. He disregarded the attraction and continued onward. It was a relatively uneventful stroll. There was a couple of squirrels here and there, but it was just peaceful, scenic stroll. He only stopped when he heard crying coming from some nearby bushes. He investigated and stumbled upon an old man wearing a blue tunic and a golden crown. He was sitting on the ground crying and mumbled/ranted about Bubblegum, a wife made of stolen parts and an island lady. His tears stained his tunic and his nose was spewing snot everywhere. A nearby bird was spooked by the man's bawling and flew away. It didn't get far as the old man froze it. He seemed annoyed at it for a second and then continued to cry. He then noticed Kane, standing there between those bushes. He stood up, wiped his runny nose with his sleeve and confronted the intruder that interrupted his private time.

"(Sniffle, sniffle) What do you want!? Can't you see I'm crying my eyes out over here? Begone before the great Ice King free..e.e..e..e..FRE! E! E! ", said Ice King.

He soon cried again with even greater strength. He sat on the ground and cried into his knees. Kane walked over and sat down with the Ice King and asked him.

"Why are you sad?", asked Kane.

The Ice King, with a confused look, was unsure of this stranger. With teary eyes, he told the stranger of his plight.

"I'm lonely that's why. I try and try to reach out to people, to be their friend and maybe something more, but what always happens? They turn me down!"

They was a deer in a clearing. IK narrowed his eyes as he looked at it. He partially froze the nearby deer as it grazed. It tried to run away, but since only his right foreleg was the only one moving, he barely made any progress. He fell down on to a patch of dirt as he tried to get up. IK sighed deeply and continued.

"First it was Bubblegum who led me to believe that she liked me, but it turns out she trying to make Finn fall for her by making him jell. I forgave her, but I broke up with her awhile later for another reason."

His eyes got wetter and wetter as he continued.

"I..I.I thought I would be f-fine once I finally got married, but my wife gave her parts back to the princesses."

He started to heave as he went down further and further into his troubles.

"I eventually forgave her, but still, she was supposed to be my wife. I loved her, physically since she was made out of my favorite princess parts."

He smiled as he thought about his ex. His 7:20 face returned as he remembered she left him.

"But I also loved her emotionally since we were both viewed as monsters to the rest of Ooo. It was nice to have someone there who knows how exactly how you feel. I felt like she was made for me, even though I did make her for that purpose."

He started to turn away as he said rest of his plight.

"I lost my sense of direction after that. I didn't know what to do since it seemed like no one would want to be with me. I actually left Ooo for a little while, to try and find myself by exploring the world and that sorta vibe."

Kane was confused as to what he meant. IK noticed this, sighed and explained.

"I saw it happen to several people in a movie. Something terrible happened to each of them, they decided enough was enough and they left home to some exotic location where they found their true selves."

"Oh.", said Kane.

IK sighed and continued.

"Yeah. Any who, I actually found someone who was nice and sweet and beautiful. She was a living island who was incredibility nice. I actually liked this girl for awhile. And at the time, I was sure she liked me too. But, when I met her, she was in a dysfunctional relationship with Party God. He was incredibly jell of any guy who was even near his girl. He even attacked me when I asked him about the relationship. I won and broke up with Bubblegum just to be with her. It lasted awhile too until a hotshot volcano formed next to her."

He frowned as he recalled the living landmass.

"He was a real punk to me. He would occasionally erupt when I was around him. Every time I talked to him about it, he always said it wasn't his fault. I didn't believe him for a minute. And he always flirted with her. I didn't think anything of it at the time, but she would perk up every time he boomed out his voice. It went like this for like a month, maybe? Anyway, it ended on a hot morning. I had planned for us to have a picnic that day. When I arrived, she looked at me with pity. We talked for some time about random stuff, like the weather and cats. She then causally stated that she thought it was time to see other people, that I wasn't always around enough. I felt so angry, sad, and confused at the same time. I flew away to my home before I could cause a scene. I cried for a week straight. I'm not even kidding, my tear makers almost dried up. I felt so mad, sad, and confused, and that was okay. I would expect that to happen. I mean, MY GIRLFRIEND dumped me for a volcano!"

The Ice King rose from the ground and was hovering ten feet in the air. Kane dove for cover behind a large rock, hoping he wouldn't be frozen. He looked over the rock. IK's voice grew louder as his face turned angry and red.

"I just want some companionship, is that to much to ASK!", as Ice King yelled at the sky.

Ice King was angry and he had a look of intimidation, power and insanity. He looked like he was about to freeze anything in his mere presence. His eyes began to quivered and he was then reduced from a powerful warlock to a crying, pitiful old man. He dropped down to earth and cried into his knees as he laid there in a fetal position. He continued to sob for a little bit until Kane calmed him down.

"Hey calm down, man. It's alright that all that stuff happened. It's just that probably means that you hadn't found the right lady yet."

The Ice King got up and looked at Kane, wondering why this person is comforting a dangerous weirdo. Kane looked at him and was having some difficultly coming up with the right words.

"I mean, the right person...hasn't found you yet and you only found women that weren't the right person. Because, um, the right one would equally like you that same way and junk."

The Ice King got up and stood there, feeling better after hearing what this kid had to say. He thought about how it would have never had happened between him and Bubblegum, that his wife made a difficult choice and his girlfriend probably felt bad for dumping him like that. It was clear she liked him since she did it gently.

"(Sniffle, sniffle). Yeah, that's what it is. I didn't find the right person yet!"

He got up on his feet as he continued to speak. His body confided confidence as he stood.

"It so clear now, all I have to do is keep going and find the right person! Woo-hoo! The Ice King is back, baby! Thank you, erhm.. Say what's your name?", asked the now happy Ice King.

"Kane."

The Ice King looked at him with a questionable look, but then continued what he had to say.

"Kane, weird name. Anyway, do you want to come to my Ice Fortress? I got ice cream, board games, computers, ninja stuff and other amazing things!"

"Sounds good to me. So, how do we get to your house?"

"Like this! Grab my tunic."

Kane grabbed the dirty clothing that was soiled with tears and boogers. He felt unsure as the Ice King chuckled.

"Hold on."


This is going to be another story that I will continue once I finish Another Human. Also, please review. Negative, positive, neutral? I don't care as long it's a review.
