(A/N: Hello, reader. I'm taking a break from my other story to write this. It's just little thing I thought of. And NO, I'm not a Fubblegum shipper. I just thought that this would be a valid reason for Finn to try his hand at PB again. Enjoy...)
The Ice King's crown floated steadily in the flooded remains of his kingdom. He sat thinking about what to do, Gunter beside him. Finn stood in front of them, the front of his shirt completely ripped.
Gunter turned to the Ice King with concern.
"Wenk?" he asked him.
The Ice King made a weak, worried smile.
"Gunter, we'll be okay..." he muttered, putting a hand on the penguin's shoulder.
The two embraced.
"Wenk..." Gunter sighed sadly.
"I love you too, Gunter..." the Ice King mumbled in response.
Finn looked on with a blank expression on his face. Suddenly, he felt tears forming. The pain in the realization of what he had done just set in. All of the severity of his actions, thrown at him within a single minute. He tightly shut his eyes.
"Finn?! FINN! What's going on?!" cried Princess Bubblegum, running up behind him. Cold water splashed about her ankles as she sprinted towards the boy.
Tears now flowing down his cheeks, Finn turned to the princess and hugged her. As he buried his face in her chest, he began to sob. Princess Bubblegum was shocked by this action. Flabbergasted, she looked up.
Past the Ice King and his penguin, the princess of the Candy Kingdom spotted a flame that quickly disappeared beyond the horizon. She was astonished. Then she looked back down at Finn.
Princess Bubblegum put the pieces together.
She glanced over at the Ice King, who was still hugging Gunter.
"I'm sorry," she whispered so quietly it seemed as though she only mouthed it.
The Ice King simply nodded and closed his eyes once more.
Finally, Princess Bubblegum put her arms around Finn and closed her own eyes.
And there she stood as Finn wailed, soaking her dress.
