Finn tossed around the cot and his head began to profusely drop ounces of sweat, only making him clench is fists under the covers. He shook his head and groaned at the very image he was picturing, fire. He bared his eyes tighter and his body shifted and rolled to the other side of the bed. His head began to fill with more images of disaster, ice. Finally, with a sudden jolt made of sweat and a few tears, Finn ripped the covers from him and sat up, panting over and over. Jake sniffed and raised his head in the air, wondering what the sudden stench was. He saw his brother sitting up in bed and raised an eyebrow. "Bro you alright?" Jake asked. Finn let his breathing catch up to him and looked at his brother. "I had the weirdest dream dude." Finn replied. Jake sighed and jumped down from his drawer bed and onto Finn's bed, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Want to talk about it?" Jake asked. Finn ran his fingers through his growing hair and stretched his arms out. "I don't know where to start." Finn stated. Jake let out a small chuckle and removing his hand from the shoulder. "Look man, I know it's tempting, but you have to repress these dreams for now." Jake stated with a finger raised. Finn frowned and looked at Jake in confusion. "Huh?" Finn asked. "You're getting to that age when you're going to want to see a whole lot more than you ought to, trust me I was that way too." Jake continued on. Finn still had a lost expression to his face and scratched the top of his head. "Dude I got no idea what you're talking about." Finn said still scratching the top of his head. "Don't worry about it then, just try to relax and go to sleep, we'll talk about it in the morning." Jake stated, slowly making his way back to his own bed.

With that, Finn also made his way back to the bed and gently laid his head down to the pillow. His eyes began to feel heavy and his heart began to slow down from the stress of a dream. Finn's eyes now flustered to a close, letting the blackness soothe him and take him in.

Present

Finn tossed and turned around the stiff bed, trying to get a grasp through the nightmare. His teeth clenched and grinded together, only making sweat dribble down his forehead. His eyes shattered opened, making him jolt from the bed. Heavy breaths filled the room as he put a hand on the bed, regaining any bit of breath that he could. A shift in the bed made him gasp and get up out of the bed, only noticing the pale skin from underneath the covers. "Baby… what's wrong?" Marceline asked. Finn let his breaths come to a slow finish and he smiled at the woman before him. He got back in bed and continued to smile at his vampire mistress. "Nothing." Finn said grasping her cheek. Marceline gazed off into his eyes and nodded, laying back down and letting her fall back into a sleep. He didn't like lying to her and especially over something that he needed to talk to somebody about. He looked back at her and sighed, leaning over to leave a kiss on her cheek. Finn turned back and got up out of the bed for the last time, locating his attire which was thrown all over Marcy's room. His shirt dangled from the end of the bed post, with little to no grip, his pants lied in the corner of the room and his hat was in the hallway. He smirked and zipped up his jeans and slipped on his shirt. With one final look at Marceline, he went out toward the hall and picked up his hat, heading down the stairs and toward the front door.

"Did you sleep any better last night?" Jake asked his brother. Finn reopened his eyes and found that he head was down on the kitchen table. "Thought not." Jake answered for him. Jake came around the table with what smelled like no other than his famous Bacon Pancakes. "J-just what I need." Finn stated, gripping a fork with an ultimate grip. Finn dug his fork into the bacon pancakes and took a massive bite, leaving tiny bits of salvia in the corner of his mouth. "Want to talk about your dream last night?" Jake asked, cleaning up the pan he used in the sink. With a clang from the table, Jake looked back and noticed Finn was frozen. "Finn?" Jake asked. Finn's hands began to shake and his eyes flustered a dash of gold. He blinked and he tried to let out a word but nothing came through. Instead of seeing his brother he only saw something that looked majestic and divine. It's wings spread through the rim of Finn's vision and made his nose bleed out. He could hear muffled shouting from the vision but he could only focus on the animal before him. "Finn, do not change what is already changed. Do not stop the flow of time, let it be as it is. You cannot change your fate human." The animal said wings spread through the area. Finn couldn't make out what it was but for some odd reason, he knew what it was. "Yes Cosmic Owl." Finn replied to the owl.

Finn shook off the memory, as if it was something that haunted him. He gulped and ran faster though the plains and toward the candy kingdom. He felt the wind blow through his shirt and hair from the his hat, letting his mind focus only on the castle, not letting anything stop him. He bared his teeth and made himself run a bit faster, not letting himself think about…

…A great ball of fire spread through the ice lands, as Finn found a bit of cover to save himself. "Glob!" Finn shouted. He looked back up to notice the great color that filled the sky. Red, orange, and yellow penetrated every bit of the cold colors that lay before it. Blue, white and a bit of grey tried to surround the colors but instead was blocked off and a cluster of shatters erupted the sky. His eyes marveled at the scene before him, just as the Cosmic Owl had shown him. Fire and ice, a battle between natural foes. Flame princess spiraled her hands together and formed a gigantic flame of death, aiming it at Ice King. "Die you old pathetic man!" Flame princess shouted. "You wench! You think I'll die that easy?" Ice King shouted back. He lifted his hands up and formed an ice shield, that seemed like it wouldn't hold against a fire attack, but it held. Finn gulped at the very sight of such a beautiful pristine girl fight against an ugly old man of fire and ice. As Flame Princess kept on with her flamethrower of an attack, Ice King lifted up and began to step forward. "Oh no." Finn said to himself as the king got closer. "I don't know why you would have said those awful things about me! But this ends now!" Ice King shouted delivering a ice punch to her stomach. Flame Princess coughed and fell to the ground, holding her stomach.

Finn could hear the sizzling of dying fire and his mind began to race. "I can't watch this anymore!" Finn shouted jumping from the rocks. Ice King laughed hysterically, formed an ice crystal sword, and raised it so the pointy end starred down at the now helpless princess. "Goodbye princess." Ice King stated and with a sudden lift of the sword, he was interrupted by Finn's shoulder to his face. "Stop it!" Finn exclaimed. Ice King landed to the side, lifted up his head, and growled. Flame Princess looked up to see Finn standing over her. "Finn!" She shouted. He sighed and looked at Ice King reclaim his sword and he was about to say something till Flame Princess stood up behind Finn. "Finn let me kill this old man." Flame Princess stated. Finn quickly turned around and shook his head. "You can't, so both of you please-." He started putting his hands to his side stretched out. "-STOP!" He finished pushing Ice King back and holding his princess back with a little burn to his palm. The two attackers looked confused so Finn let off a sigh and put his head down. "I did it, I wrote the letters about you two." Finn said through his shame. There was a long bit of silence before Flame Princess broke it with a question. "What do you mean you wrote the letters?" Flame Princess asked with flames rising to her sides. Finn turned to her and looked at her. "I had this dream that you two fought and the Cosmic Owl foresaw it and gave me the dream. Therefore, he told me to witness the fight in reality. So in order to make you guys fight, I wrote those awful things about you." Finn explained. A chuckle came from the Ice King as soon as Finn was done explaining but not a word came from the fire princess. Instead he could hear a sizzle from her, as he looked up he saw a tear, for the first time he watched as his fire maiden cried. He lifted his eyebrows and held a hand out to her. She shook her head and backed away slowly, letting her flames sizzle and dash toward the sky. "Wait no! Flame Princess!" Finn exclaimed watching as Flame Princess turned and disappeared from the area.
