Prince Gumball sat at his desk, his reading glasses sat perched on his pink nose. It was yet another quiet night in the Candy Kingdom. Ice Queen hadn't "visited" him in a while and there was finally peace in his hectic life as a prince. Gumball turned the page of his giant green book entitled, "The Science of Aromatherapy". The sun was setting on the horizon, and Gumball's eyes were starting to droop. He gazed lazily out his oversized window. He saw Cake in the distance and smiled and put down his book, it was getting kinda boring anyway. Cake was moving much quicker than she normally would. As she came closer to the castle Gumball could see the alarm and worry in her eyes. "Cake..." he mumbled worriedly as he moved closer to the window. "Gumball! Gumball help!," she cried as she bounded into the window. Gumball's eyes widened in shock as he saw a mutilated Fionna on her back. "MEDIC WE NEED A MEDIC!" he yelled into an intercom on the wall. "W-What happened?" he asked, his mind still proccessing the sight in front of him. Fionna lay, unconsious, her limbs twisted in strange positions, blood streaked her face and clothes. "I-Ice Queen... Amulet... Oh Gob..." Cake whimpered on the verge of tears. "Calm down Cake, she's going to be just fine." The medics streamed into the room. Candy nurses carried Fionna out on a stretcher. "Maybe you should wait here..." Doctor Ice Cream told a very worried looking Cake. "No. I'm staying with my baby." she said standing up determined but still shaking a bit. The medics rushed out, shooing worried looking candy people out of their way. In minutes they reach the hospital. The doctor listens for Fionna's heart. "We're going to need a defibrillator." she orders a nurse. "Clear." she hits her with the defibrillator. A jolt runs through Fionna's body. They check the heart monitor. Nothing. "Clear." another jolt. This time the monitor shows a faint heartbeat. Cake grabs Gumball's hand and he squeezes it comfortingly. "Clear." One more time. This time her heartbeat pulses strongly on the screen. "She's going to be just fine." a relieved nurse exhales. "Oh thank goodness," Cake wipes away a tear of happiness, "i don't know what i'd do..." The doctor motions them out of the room, they have to start the re-breaking. They sit in the waiting room, easy-listening music plays softly. "So, how did this happen to her?" Gumball inquires gently. Cake sniffs then sighs deeply, glancing to the door. "Well... You know how Ice Queen hasn't been seen in a while. Me an Fi went to see what was up. She was holed up in her castle muttering about some 'Amulet'. We asked her what she was blabbering about then she attacked us!" Cake widens her eyes at the memory. "Attacked you?" Gumball closed his eyes trying to imagine the scene, "You mean with snow?" Cake nods slowly, "Yeah... it it seemed... colder. When her blizzard attack cleared, Fionna couldn't move. Ice Queen started bragging about some 'power of the amulet' so i knocked her tiara off hoping it would stop her." "Did it?" Gumball asked, "Nope. She sent a bunch of icicles at Fionna and they broke her bones and junk. I knew we couldn't win and i was confused so i grabbed Fionna and left." Gumball shook his head. This was bad, really bad. "Anything else?" he asked bitterly. "Y-Yeah..." Cake answered hesitantly, "She said she would use the amulet to capture you and turn you into an ice statue to make out with whenever she wants" Gumball felt a chill go down his spine. "Oh my..." "You can't stay here sugar." Cake pulls him up, "We need to find you a hideout until we find a way to beat her... and Fionna gets better." Gumball struggles in her arms, "But my books!" Cake sighs and puts him down. "Fine get your books, but we need to hurry!." Gumball runs to his library, his heart pounding in his ears. A million questions running through his mind. Where would he go? What is this amulet the Ice Queen has? Will Fionna be okay? He grabs as many books has he can on folklore, magical jewelry, ice magic, and paralysis. "We have to find you a place to stay your highness." Cake tells him as she scoops him up and rushes him back to his room. "Can't i just stay at your house?" he almost whines. "No..." Cake thinks, "She'll be expecting that... We need to put you somewhere she will never think to check."
