-The Uncharted Bitland Islands-

The birds had a lovely view of the glorious yet gloomy mansion, surrounded by a forest of trees on the uncharted isles. Watching over the island just in case their hostage had tried to make his way out... Which was highly unlikely. The mansion was the tallest part of the island, black walls with torches set all around them. From the mansion grounds you could see the lingering eerie forest along with an in-ground pool outside. The mansion was run by a dark magic gang that was only known as the 'Lich Queens Followers' or if you're of a shortening mind, the LQF's. Only rumored of, the LQF's were a ruthless and murderous force of mages that's set goal is on reviving the Lich Queen. And unknown to anybody else, they resided here.

"All clear..." Said a black and red robed guard at the entrance of the mansion, pacing back down the front yard patio. Another guard, at the original guards side, rose an eyebrow. "Of course it's all clear the hostage is inside..." The guards un-cooperative partner snorted. The theatrical guard sighed, shaking his head. "It was for dramatic effect..." He said in his low, husky almost snake like voice. The guards kept pacing slowly about the mansion. After getting tired (or they were just lazy) they saw fit that they could just chill within a gazebo, sitting on the gazebo bench. The theatrical guard was tying his combat boot laces, as he looked over at his partner and asked, "So, who's this hostage anyways?"

"You didn't hear? It's not just any hostage... It's the Prince of the Candy Kingdom!" The cinical guard said shocked that dramatic didn't hear 'the news' that was gossiped among all the guards in the LQF's industry. Dramatics didn't get it, so he just shook his head. The cinical guard sighed, shaking his head as well.

"Anyways, what're we gonna do with him?" Dramatic asked, giggling evily as he licked his licks with his forked tounge.

-Mansion, Third Floor-

In the middle of a torch lit wide marble floored room, sat the hostage Prince Gumball, hands cuffed in the chair he sat down on. The chair was bolted to the floor, to prevent him from escaping. He grumbled, cursing himself for falling for the dark magic users attack. Just hours ago, he was baking in his kitchen, making delicious strawberry cherry berry orderves, only to be ganged up on by 6 LQF's perpertraitors and taken hostage... Now he sat here helpless.

Gumball tried braking free from his cuffs, but to no success, as they were (rather uncomfortably) tightly cuffed around his wrists and the bars of the seat. He wished he could be wearing something a wee bit more fitting for the special occasion of being a hostage. A pink pair of sweatpants, and the black band design t-shirt that was given to him as a gift from... Somebody special to him. Perhaps it was for the better of him that he looked unpresentable to the fiends. It'd save him from any weird guys who liked to toy with their hostages sexually... Dear glob. Unfortunately for Gumball, even though he'd rarely look presentable, never did he look not adorable. Gumball was a walking talking cutie, a pretty boy, absolutely adorable! It's a gift...
It's a curse...

The Heroine that would normally be saving Gumball from a mess like this, Fionna, simply couldn't feel true love for Gumball. While his looks were delicatable, he simply wasn't 'hot' enough. He didn't have the manliness to him to win Fionnas heart. That's why Fionna longs for somebody else... Somebody much more 'masculine' than Gumball. Gumball would certainly care for not having the heart of Fionna (and that's what everybody thinks) but the fact of the matter was, he really did not care if Fionna did not love him that way... It only effected him, because he was the laughing stock ever since her 'rejection' people like to call it. He became the laughing stock of his own kingdom after he had a personal conversation with Fionna about there relationship status... Gumball only asked if Fionna had feelings for him...

Fionna had told Cake about her telling him 'No'.

Cake told Lord Monochromicorn.

And the 'absolutely humiliating news' spread from there. News he quite literally did not care for, as it was all a lie. He didn't love Fionna, not like that.

It was at this time Gumball decided to linger on his life... Who knew, he may just die here. He reflected on his life, on his decisions, his regrets... He always feared dying alone. It was his worst nightmare, dying alone... When would anybody else notice that he was gone? Would he ever see anybody again?... Like Fionna, Cake? Mochro...? Would he ever see Marshall Lee again?

He blinked twice... And shook his head. 'Why would I think of him?' He thought, as if he didn't know the true answer. He was captured, all alone, hopeless, and he longed for... Marshall Lee, of all people, to save him? To come in the room, brake off his cuffs, and carry him away... In his arms... "Ughck!" Gumball gasped, disgusted at his own thoughts that he had not yet come to terms with. "Why would I want somebody as so... Vulgar as him to save me?" He said out loud, shaking his head in confusion. Why had he thought of Marshall Lee so much lately? Maybe it was an early life crisis. He had constantly thought back to when Marshall Lee and him were friends. Actually close friends... What had happened to them both? Why did their friendship end? It was like an unmentioned stop sign. Like suddenly, they stopped talking, and started to simply dislike eachother... And than hate each other, almost forgetting that they were ever friends in the first place.

"Enough." He told himself. Why was he thinking of him out of all people in the first place? Why not think of his citizens, Butterscotch Butler? (The butterscotch scothish butler) or perhaps Fionna? The one who had always saved him from many of Ice Queens traps, or who offered him fun adventures to places nobody has been, at least very often... Pfft, now he knew why he didn't think about that... Everytime there was an adventure to go on he always came along. Him, and his bossiness, his self entitledness, how he insists he deserves whatever, whenever he wants it. How him and Fionna click SO well, when it was him who tried so hard to evict Fionna and Cake from their own house, and than when they finally found another home to live it, he tried to steal that too?

He wondered if Fionna ever remembered how she had fought to save Marshall Lee from his mother, and after all her hard work, he simply said 'I don't wanna hang out with you anymore.' or what about when he faked his own death to her? Well, no... She was mad about that, he thought. 'But she was perfectly fine with ditching me, like they always tend to...' Gumball thought bitterly.

He came to the conclusion that Marshall acted this way on purpose, for whatever reason. Maybe to belittle Gumball, to make him feel not worth as much... Or just to have 'fun'. How wild Marshall Lee was annoyed Gumball, to the sixty'th death world and beyond. 'Then again, he was always like that.' Gumball had thought... He blinked twice. 'Wait, what?!' He thought, trying to pin down where the previous thought came from. He was always like that? Was he referring to their old friendship?

His thoughts of the Vampire King were inturupted by the sounds of heavy steps, coming from what Gumball assumed to be a staircase into the wide room he was trapped in, based on the sounds of the steps echoing louder by each step, each louder than the last. He could hear the beings legs brush against each other, it simply must've of been stairs. Glancing around, he took what he could see from the torches and gathered anything he could to tell what room this might be... Perhaps a large anteroom? Or maybe even, a ball room. The conclusion was halted by the sight of the only abnormal light in the darkness, a set of four red eyes before him, getting closer. Gumball shivered in inevitable fear, but mostly kept his calm posture. He wouldn't show fear, no, not yet.

"Well, hello there Prince." Said a deep calm voice, that kinda sounded as if two people were speaking at the same time. Gumball looked up, looking helpless. He couldn't help but shake his head, leaning forward toward the being.

"Who are you? What do you want from me...?" Gumball asked calmly, crossing one leg over the other. His patience was running, and he wanted a damn answer.

"You may call me master. All I want is you, Gumball." It said. Gumball shivered at what he had just said. 'M-m-master...?' He thought. No way in hell he was going to call this thing his master... Gumball served nobody. He was a Prince of perhaps one of the most prosperous kingdoms ever.

"...Wh-what?" Gumball asked, more than confused. He struggled against his handcuffs, as the being laughed at his squirming.

"You're squirming in an attempt to escape pleases me, Gumball." He laughed, stretching out his hand toward Gumballs face. A red sharp nailed hand tickled under Gumballs chin, in response, Gumball spat at the being. He grumbled, four red eyes narrowing. "You know, I've always wanted a pet... I've had so many, but I never know quite how to take care of them I suppose... They always end up starving." He laughed. Gumball narrowed his eyes.

"Please... Pardon my language..." Gumballs angry eyes narrowed looking up at the being, as he gulped, sweat running down his forehead. "But who the fuck are you? And WHAT do you want?" Gumball said, this time more demanding than the last. The red eyed being laughed, crossing his arms. Gumball's eyes widened in realization for a second, before narrowing again. "I see... You're a demon, from the NightO'sphere... I assume you're one of the Lich Queens followers?" Gumball spat, clenching his teeth in anger. He wished he could break free, and attack his captor.

"Aah, why yes, I am a demon... But where I'm from doesn't really matter... And the whole Lich Queen isn't even the important part." He laughed, throwing his head back while doing so. His arms were red, and built too. Who was this guy? Why had he captured Gumball? What for? Gumball rose his eyebrows in confusion and frustration. 'Not the important part? It's the damn Lich Queen, destroyer of worlds!' Gumball than sighed, smiling. Fionna and Cake had already defeated the Lich Queen. He had nothing to worry about.

"You're a fool for having brought me here... There is nothing I can do for you all," Gumball laughed, unsure if he was even in any place to laugh. Whether they needed Gumball or not, they had him now. So his ass was grass. The demon guy laughed, ruffling Gumballs hair.

"Silly boy, it is only I that wants you... You're going to be my lover, forever and always." Gumballs jaw dropped. He could not believe what he had just heard.

"YOU'RE WHAT?!" He gasped, eyes wide open. Who was this man, exactly? Why did he want Gumball like THAT?! What was his goal? The demon simply laughed, kneeling down into the light, face to face with Gumball. He had a sharp jaw, and brown hair falling slightly over his forehead. He kind of looked like an angsty built demon teenager to Gumball. He had four eyes, all red, a sharp nose and pursed smiling lips with fangs sticking out. He giggled evily, tickling under Gumballs chin.

"Nobody cared about you before... That's why you belong to me now! I'll play so many games with you Gumball. You're my property from now in." He said in the most cynical way possible, with a hint of flirtatiousness. Gumball simply did not react, just shook his head.

"You are insane... I don't understand..." Gumball gaped, looking up at the demon. "... People are going to look for me... They're going to find where I'm held no matter what. You can kill me or torture me, but mark my words, you will be found and brought to justice." Gumball growled, narrowing his eyes. "You bastard."

"Hahahahaaa! Nobody will find you, silly... Nobody cares enough for you..." He said, sticking to his bring-you-down tone of voice. Gumball gasped slightly, averting his eyes. 'Is that true...?' He thought, thinking over everything again... No. Fionna, Cake, Mochro or the Gumball Guardians would surely come for him! Somebody would save him... Somebody.

"N-No... Y-you're wrong, you know nothing... To you, I'm just a Prince... A being of legalistic power, having me here would instantly come to your advantadge, no matter what reason, you know that much... But you know not who cares!" Gumball snapped, bringing his face closer to the demon. He was no longer afraid of him, not in the slightest. The demon smirked, every tooth in his mouth sharp as knives.

"Ohh... If only you knew how much I actually knew, Bubba..." He said, smirking. Gumball blinked, shaking his head at him. He didn't understand. He knew not who the demon was.

"You don't know me... And I have no clue who you are, you all look the same to me, you demons." Gumball spat, shaking his head again, switching the legs he had crossed with the other, resting back against the chair he was imprisoned on. The demon narrowed his eyes hands on his sharp hips, raising his chin at Gumball slightly.

"Ooh... Does that count for hybrid demons, too...?" He asked in an almost eager, perhaps envious tone. Gumball blinked twice, and paused... His heart skipped a beat. He narrowed his eyes at the demon.

"What are you... Saying...?" Gumball asked, eyes becoming less narrow by the second. The demon shook his head, firmly grasping Gumballs pink stuble chin. Gumball whined at the grasp, eyes widening at the sudden closeness between the two of them. The demon planted a slight kiss on Gumballs forehead, before releasing him, smirking.

"I think you need some alone time... I'll give you a little while, I have things to do right now." The demon giggled, walking away.

Gumballs lips quivered, as now the demon was gone. He couldn't think straight now, all he could do is lower his head, and cry softly. Tears fell from his face, onto the floor, brushing against his legs. As he looked down, he saw his shirt... He wished he could hug it for safety, but he would have to enjoy it's tight feeling against his body. No longer denying any rivarlys mentioned before, he sobbed and cried softly, "... I want Marshy to save me..."
