Author's note: Hello, there people who love the gender bender world of Adventure Time! This was possibly the best thing they could have done with the show, just saying. It was amazing, so I decided to write about it. If you love Marshall LeeX Fionna fanfics than this is for you, so enjoy and review!
Disclaimer: I woke up this morning and I realized I didn't make Adventure Time. So, I crawled in a ball in the corner of my room and balled my eyes out and asked myself, "Why Marshall Lee? Why are they keeping us apart?"
Fionna loved him, she really did. So, why did he keep brushing her off and referring to her as his, "friend?" Well, Prince Gumball wasn't exactly the guy that was so keen on picking up on noticeable signs that Fionna was obviously giving. He didn't really care about anything but the Candy Kingdom and his stupid science that was so pointless in Fionna's eyes. She wanted him to love her, so badly, that she would sometimes stay up at night in the tree house and think about him non-stop. She looked in the miorre and saw something ugly; something she thought wasn't good enough. She wasn't made of candy, she made of flesh and bones; something Gumball couldn't relate to.
And even though Gumball used her for his purposes of saving his kingdom and consistently calling her his, "friend," Fionna still fell in love with his delicate pink face and gooey hair. She couldn't put her finger on it, but there was something about the way she melted at his charming voice that gave her goose bumps. And her heart hurt every time he would rave about a new invention he made, when Fionna just tried throwing him a bone. It was like he was oblivious to it, like Fionna was saving his butt for her own health. Sure, putting herself in danger on a weekly basis was just what she needed. Especially, when it involved the Ice Queen, who by the way, was Fionna's arch nemesis. Cake would always go on about how cute they would be together, but Fionna always rolled her eyes and said to herself, "Yeah, but we'll never be together." It frustrated her immensely and sometimes, Fionna wondered if it had something to do with her constant need for adventure. Was that a turn off to him? Or was it because he was a prince and a princess was what he needed. Fionna could never answer these questions because, well, Gumball was complex; a puzzle whose parts wouldn't fit together. She shook her head and wondered to herself why he never could just open his eyes.
Fionna was in the tree house with Cake, like she usually was every Saturday. It was their day to take a break from adventuring and just relax, play some video games, gossip, and best of all, for Fionna, fix her weapon collection. She has been collecting weapons for as long as she could remember. It brought her joy and she always loved getting new ones from enemies she defeated. Those were even more rewarding. For some reason she was unaware of, she relished the thought of collecting more and more. Maybe it was a reason beyond her understanding, but she knew one thing and that was that she loved her weapons.
"Girl, why are you sharpening those old pieces of junk again?" Cake asked while sitting on the couch playing videogames. Fionna turned to her loyal companion and sister and dropped her jaw.
"Cake! These are my precious treasures; they're not pieces of junk!" She rebutted.
"Well, sweetie, they're getting all rusty and what not, why not ask Gumball for some new weapons?" She asked smirking and raising an eyebrow at her sister. Fionna's cheeks rose with redness and she looked down at the floor trying to hide it. She mustered to argue back though.
"Cake, for your information, all the weapons in the candy kingdom are made of candy and unless we want to kill our enemies by giving them high blood pressure and diabetes, I doubt they'll do any good." Cake contemplated that thought.
"Well, it may be cruel, but it could work!" She laughed.
"Cake, come on, you and I both know I was joking. We need real weapons and these," she paused and picked up a 6 inch knife that was freshly sharpened and ready for battle, " are real weapons." She sliced it in the air and giggled. "Yep, no candy in this!"
Cake gave her a look but rolled her eyes and returned back to her game. She knew Fionna was just avoiding Gumball. She wondered though what she would do the next time the Ice Queen was attacking the Candy Kingdom. She brushed this thought away, though, because she knew that Fionna wouldn't hesitate to help. Fionna, no matter what the circumstances were, would assist anyone, because that's just the way she is. She knew about the whole dilemma Fionna was dealing with and really didn't know how to help her friend, because, well, Fionna wasn't very open with her emotions. She liked to keep them bottled up. Cake hoped though, that Fionna would open up to her so she could give her the advice she needed.
Author's note: So, there you have it, the first chapter. I realize it's short and the plot hasn't really been put into action, but I promise it will. If you want this to be a Gumball Fionna story, let me warn you now, that it will not be. I'm sorry, but I hate Gumball and Bubblegum, they get on my nerves. Got any suggestions? I'd love to hear them! Review now, please! Thanks!
