Fionna's POV

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I didn't think he was capable of something like this. Marshall Lee, was that really him, sucking the life out of Breakfast Prince? There were bodies on the ground surrounding him. All of them bone dry and pale. Gnomes, spikey people, cloud people, and so many more species. I couldn't move. That couldn't be the same sweet Marshall who I just visited in his cave yesterday. I even thought he-no, he couldn't have. But this isn't the time to think about that now. I had to stop who or whatever this was, and find out what's going on. I pulled my crystal sword from my pack, ready to fight.

"Hey!" I shouted. Part of me wished I didn't. He turned to look at me. His brilliant eyes no longer red, but an ugly and piercing yellow.

"Fionna. At last." He hissed. In an instant, he dropped Breakfast prince and was holding me by my shoulders. He was so close I could smell him. It was different than his usual sent that I liked.

"So pretty. I've never tasted human before." He whispered. I was shaking. Where was Cake?

"What are you?" My voice was quivering. This wasn't Marshall. Not the one I knew and came to love.

He chuckled. "Can't you see sweetheart? I am a vampire after all. I'm just being me." His fangs scraped my neck.

A tear ran down my cheek. "No. No." I said.

A few days before…

Fionna's POV

I heard the Ice Queens shrieks coming from her castle while Cake and I walked away in triumph once again. We had just saved Wildberry Prince from her clutches for about the 3rd time this week.

"I don't know why I've become her new favourite." WP was saying in his squeaky voice. "But this time she had tables of potions all around the room, and she kept looking at me really creepy. Creepier than usual I mean."

"That is weird, but hey it's Ice Queen, what else is new?" I said. I was sure there was nothing to worry about.

Cake laughed. "Yea sugar, and if she ever tries to capture you again, we'll kick her patoot to the moon!" Wildberry Prince laughed. "Okay thanks guys! I'll see you later."

We went our separate ways, Cake and I on our way to the tree house. It was starting to get dark and I thought about going to Marshall Lee's cave for a visit.

"Hey Cake, I'm gonna go to Marshall's place for a while. I'll be back later tonight, Kay?" I said. I thought about her and Lord Monochromicorn. They've been dating for a while now. Wait, why did that pop up in my head?

"Sure honey, I'll see you later." She sounded spacey. Did she hear me?

Cake's POV

I didn't particularly like Marshall. He was so dangerous for Fionna to be hanging around with. I knew he only drank shades of red, but he was a vampire. He could still lose control. And that other thing, they were always alone together. Whatever, maybe I was just being over protective. But she was my baby sister. I was just lookin' out for her. I decided that I'd go visit MoChro and get my mind off of things.

Marshall Lee's POV

I was sitting on my couch strumming my axe bass tunelessly. Was the couch always this uncomfortable? I was so bored.

Do something fun then. Get out of the cave! A strange voice startled me. Was that me thinking? It sounded so menacing. Have I heard it before? It rattled in my mind. A knock on the door shook me out of my thoughts. I open the door to find Fionna, with her sparkling blue eyes looking up at me. She smiled.

"Hey there." She said and pushed her bangs out of her face. I couldn't help but smile back. It was different from my usual smirk. What was I thinking about earlier?

"What's up?" I said.

She groaned. "Ugh it's Ice Queen again. I just saved WildBerry Prince from her again. For, what the 3rd time this week? Anyway, can I come in or what?"

I rolled my eyes. "Sure." She came in and sat on the couch. She pushed her bangs out of her face again.

"Dude I think you need a new couch. This one sucks." She complained.

"What's got you down tonight?" I asked. She was different from her usual perky and energetic attitude that can get kind of annoying.

"I don't know. Let watch a movie or somethin'. Let's watch a scary one!"

I scoffed. Fionna sitting through a horror movie. That hasn't worked out so well in the past. "Are you kidding? Don't you remember every other time you tried to be brave through one?"

She stuck her tongue out at me. "Whatever, I was younger then. So there! Bring it on fang boy!"

I couldn't help but laugh. I guessed she was back to normal. "Okay but I bet you won't last 10 minutes scaredy."

Of course I was right. She spent the whole movie with her face buried in my chest. I was smirking the entire time. I honestly didn't mind. She was cute when she was scared.

Go on then. Take her, touch her. You know you want to. She's so vulnerable now. Go on, do it!

What? That voice again. Where is it coming from? My head I know but why is it popping up now I thought. And No I didn't want to do that. I didn't think about Fionna that way. And I would never take advantage of her.

We'll just see about that now wont we?
