It has been many years since the frozen war. A human that appears to be in his early 20s stood in his bedroom, looking out of his window and out to the night sky. He was wearing his night clothes, a t shirt and some shorts. The short clothing showed off his well-tuned muscles and tan.
This handsome fellow is Finn Merten, the last of his kind. He has been whole a long in his long time, he doesn't appear it but he is over 1000 years old. Most of that time was under the curse of a living crown, a crown that holds a spirit that wants to rule a world of ice and snow. It almost successes twice but both times was stopped. The second time, it appears to be killed.
Now Finn Merten is living in the Candy Kingdom as their head military leader. Though, sometimes, Finn likes to go out of the kingdom to have some adventures. Always returning with some kind of treasure, but the kingdom didn't mind it.
The dim light from a desk lamp made the stack of books cast a shadow over the messy pile of letters. The irritated candy queen shoved the books off the desk which fell with a loud thud. She read the letters over and over. She couldn't believe it.
The league of wizards has declared war on the candy kingdom.
The two leaders from each group had been battling over the superiority of their own methods of life. The candy kingdom, which most of the citizens were made from scientific experiments, were defending the name of science. The wizard league claimed that magic is superior. The debate was long and seemingly un-ending..
Until now. The wizards have declared war. The queen was under tremendous amount of stress. She frantically walked around the room, not noticing that one of her slippers slipped off and kicking it to the side. the candy monarch finally decided to tell her army commander. She slammed the door open and ran down the hallway, lifting her dress up so she won't trip.
By now, Finn was sitting on his bed. He cleaning and sharpening an icy blue sword he uses for his adventuring when he looked up as he heard the sound of doors slamming opening in the distance. He wondered if it was Queen Bubblegum, or Peebles a nickname he sometimes uses.
His question was answered when he hear a pair of familiar footsteps drawing closer to his room. When his door was yanked open by a very distressed candy queen, Finn got up with his half-finished sword.
"what's wrong?" He asked, slightly worried by how stressed Bubblegum was.
She was breathing slightly heavy. She held the crumpled letter up and looked at Finn.
"The wizards are declaring war on us." She tried to calm herself a bit by breathing deeply in and out. "We need to prepare the army and warn the citizens.."
Finn looked surprised to hear the new. Yes there was always tension between to two kingdoms but he would have never thought there was going to be a war!
Finn's face harden as he thought about the people in the candy kingdom.
"We should make underground bunkers." Said Finn, helping the tired queen to a chair and handed her some water. "Should we make the first move?"
"That will do horribly on the economy. The war itself will be expensive enough.. I'll make some creatures that can fly and see if I can get rainicorns into an alliance." She sat down and took the glass of water from him. It calmed her down a bit..
"Yes, it would be wise to do that. Their army is probably heading this way as we speak.. We must act at once."
"Then we need to warn the citizens!" Said Finn, kneeling at the queen's side. "You warn the candy people as I rally up the army."
And with that, Finn got up and started to get dressed. He got his clothes and walked into the bathroom to get undressed. He would change in his room but Bubblegum was in there, he was pretty sure that she wouldn't want to see him in his underpants.
As soon as she saw him walk into the bathroom, the candy queen tan out the room and made her way her own room. She got out of her nightgown and into a simple dress.
Her butler was at the main hallway, informing Manfred the talking piñata about the war. He rang the bell and called all citizens to the castle, Manfred keeping count of them.
By the time she made her way to the main hall, the citizens were all present with their mist prized belongings, clothes(if they needed any) and food. The queen made a quick announcement about the battle and told everyone to stay for a while.
Finn dressed in a blue long sleeved shirt with a white line going down the front and white trimming on the bottom and cuffs, a lighter blue pants and some white high boots.
Finn always liked things that are blue and white, he is not sure why.
Finn equipped his sword into his scabbier and walked out of the room. He made his way to where all the candy solders stayed as he need to get them ready.
The queen calmed the citizens down and let them settle in a bit. She ordered her butler to go and check on the general.
He ran down the hallway with his little legs. By the time he made it, he was out of breath. "The..queen.. *Gasp* Wanted…me.. *Pant pant* To.. to check… On the…*gasp* the …preparation…" He said in between breaths.
Finn looked down at the breathless candy butler. He was in the middle of prep talking his solders.
"we're getting ready." He said, giving the butler some water from a water jug he always keeps with him. He knows that the queen and her serves tend to run a lot when something important happens. Finn has a jug of water with him at all times so to help the stressed out candy people.
The butler refused the jug but gave him a bow as a sign of gratitude. He made his way back to the queen.
The butler was just about to tell the queen about the preparations when they heard a loud thump. The ground under them shook and there were sounds of loud horns.
The war has begun.
