Inside a tree house in the grasslands...
"Jake!" Finn yelled, "Where did you last see Beemo?"
"I think he was at his soccer practice."
"Oh. Did you pick him up?"
"Uh…"
"You just left him there, didn't you?"
"Uh…"
"Never mind, I'll go and get him," Finn said irritably as he climbed down the ladder. He walked towards the door through the piles of treasure and opened it.
"FINN!"
Princess Bubblegum stood outside the door, panting, looking rather bedraggled with a ripped dress and a large branch stuck into her hair.
"Princess, you seriously need to get some concept of knocking. I mean…Wait, what happened?"
"Candy…Kingdom…under attack," Princess Bubblegum groaned.
"Well then why didn't you say so?" Jake exclaimed as he ran out the door, placing Finn and Princess Bubblegum on his back. Jake began running towards the kingdom, growing to an immense size so he could travel faster.
"Who's attacking PB?" Finn asked.
"I don't know, I woke up to screaming and saw a bunch of people attacking the kingdom. I sent the banana guards to defend, but, well, they are bananas. As the three closed in on the Candy Kingdom, they could hear the sound of helicopters and screaming. Princess Bubblegum took out a radio from her pocket.
"Captain Banana Guard, what is the status?"
"It isn't good Princess, the Candycopters would give us air superiority but they are using some sort of catapult to knock us right out of the sky. Whoever is commanding these guys is a tactical genius; he seems to know what we will do far before we do."
"Ok, just hold in there, Captain Banana Guard."
…
"Captain Banana Guard?"
All that could be heard over the radio was static. Finn and Princess Bubblegum looked at each other grimly.
"I can see the Kingdom!" Jake yelled as they rose over a hill.
Massive fires burned as Candy Citizens fled out the rear gate. At the Candy Castle, 3 Candycopters flew laying down suppressing fire of mints as a number of rock golems approached. Near the rear gates, some creatures similar to flambits were lobbing balls of flame at a line of banana guards who were using their spears to hold off what appeared to be immense rats. A Gumball Guardian was being held absorbed by an immense goo creature.
"Okay princess, I'll go take down that goo creature if-"
"No Finn, there is no time. The kingdom in lost. Hold off the creatures attacking the citizens and rally the banana guards. If my kingdom falls, my people must not. Jake, see if you can help the Gumball Guardian with his goo problem. If you stretch enough from the inside, you'll spread him thin so he can't reassemble. But don't get stuck in a fight you can't win. We can regroup at the treehouse."
"Will do Princess." Finn ran off towards the line of banana guards, who were beginning to flee in terror. He drew his demon blood sword, yelling "Hey you rat! Go pick on something as ugly as you are!" The rats turned towards him. "Yeah, that's right. I'm talking to you!" They all jumped forwards as one. Finn gulped. He had their attention now all right.
Jake soon realized he should have probably asked for another job. Not only was the goo monster strong, but it smelled like rancid baked beans mixed with cat vomit.
"Ugh…go away and explode you stupid thing! Come on, why couldn't you smell like an apple pie or something?" Jake said while stretching. As he expanded, looking like a giant green beach ball, he realized that if he rolled a tiny bit to the right, he might be able to puncture the slime's exterior with the spire on top of the Candy Castle.
"C'mon, just a little more...there!" The slime exploded into a thousand pieces. "Ha! Serves you right! Wait…uh oh…" Jake realized he was rolling on top of the castle. "Oops…"
Flame Princess sighed as she waited by the cliff near her house. Finn was supposed to meet her there, but for some reason hadn't shown up. She knew he was often busy with being a hero and saving people, but why couldn't he just be her hero? Worse was the fact that he could easily get injured or killed. She hoped he was all right. Suddenly, she heard a moaning voice behind her. Two zombie dogs wearing strange hats were shambling towards her. She looked around in confusion. Why in the world would someone specifically go through the trouble of sending zombie dogs after her? She could understand zombies, but zombie dogs? She then heard what they were saying.
"Finn…you always were a weak child…we wish we had never picked you up when we found you in the forest…we hate you, Finn…"
Flame Princess realized that the dogs were some sort of distraction for Finn. But why would someone send something targeting Finn after her? Especially when Finn was not there?
"No matter…Whoever you are, you should have thought more before toying with the emotions of a fire elemental! Die!" The zombie dogs disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a pair of cracked rock golems with hologram projectors.
Finn moaned as he finished off another group of rat-people with Jake.
"Dude…huh…huh…I am so tired…huh…huh…" Finn panted.
"Yeah…huh…this is worse than the time I spent awake with the pups…" Jake replied.
Suddenly they spotted what appeared to be a fire elemental who looked like a younger version of the flame king coming towards them. Strangely enough, it did not throw any fireballs, but simply said the same thing over and over again.
"Flame Princess…you are too dangerous…you will never be liked by anyone in the world..."
"Well guess what?" Finn replied.
"What?" The Flame King replied, strangely, considering he appeared to be replaying an audio tape.
"I like her!" Finn ran towards the young flame king and swung his sword at it. Strangely, the king disappeared, leaving a decapitated rock golem.
"I wonder why someone would create a distraction for Flame Princess but use it on me." Finn wondered.
"Finn! We are getting out of here!" Jake yelled. He had stretched his body to carry the candy people and was helping the last of them on.
"Okay!" Finn jumped, landing above Jake's head. Jake ran off, leaving the smoldering ruins of the candy kingdom behind as the survivors fled for the treehouse.
Inside the ruins of the Candy Castle, a hunchbacked figure cowered before an altar.
"M-m-master… I have destroyed the Candy Kingdom… not a single house still stands and Princess Bubblegum's Candy Castle is a smoldering wreck…"
"Good…good…and the hero and his fiery lady?"
"T-t-they are alive, my lord… I-I accidentally switched the orders and they got the distractions meant for one another…"
"YOU IGNORANT FOOL! If I were even at a fraction of my true power your incompetence would cause you to be obliterated…but luckily for you, I still have need of you and your petty plans…You will step up your efforts. Attack the Wildberry and Breakfast Kingdoms. They will fall easily and will terrify our enemies.
Inside a treehouse surrounded by terrified candy people, a group of friends met to discuss the recent happenings in the Candy Kingdom. There, sitting around a battered table, were a talking dog, a vampire with a bass guitar ax, a fourteen year old boy wearing oven mitts holding hands with a flaming girl, an old blue man who was constantly fiddling with the penguin in his lap, and a pink girl with Bubblegum hair.
"What I don't understand is why the Candy Kingdom was attacked," said the vampire with the bass guitar.
"Well, the Candy Kingdom is at the center of kingdom politics following the treaty of the united kingdoms as per section 18 column six," said the flaming girl.
"How did you get to know so much about kingdom politics?" asked the boy.
"When you are trapped in a lamp you have a lot of time to read…" the girl said sadly.
The table was silent for the moment.
"Anyway, my question is, why would someone who appeared to be a tactical genius during the invasion of the Candy Kingdom turn into an idiot when he switched the plans targeting Finn and FP?" the dog asked.
"Occasionally genius plans are done badly by inferiors." The pink girl replied. She took out a holocomputer and began typing pulling up images of the battle. "I feel like I have seen some of this before…there! She zoomed in on a flag. The flag had a 18 pointed star with lightning coming from each corner, imprinted on a shield. "The last time I saw that flag was when my father was king. That is the flag of the Shadow King. The Shadow King was killed by Billy though…He must have survived somehow. If that is the case, we must find someone I have not seen for a long time…the Tactician.

I do not own Adventure Time
Well? Did you like it? Should I keep on going with this? Is the sky blue? Do pigs fly? Will I continue to ask rhetorical questions? Anyway, if I keep on going with this, I will try to update it as often as I can, probably twice a week. Sometimes I may update it twice on weekends, I don't know. See you in a weeks time! WWKC out!
