(ADVENTURE TIME)
( I don't own Adventure Time )
This is the story of how Fionna met Marshall Lee, Chapter #2 -
Marshall Lee stood in front of his eyes and ears of the Vampire Realm, Pips. Pips was no older than fourteen when she was bit by a vampire. She was considered beautiful by other vampires. She had abnormally bright, shiny, red hair that she cut short and let it cling to her thin pale face as if she hairsprayed it there. Her hair was swooped to the left, having no hairline. She was petite, but definitley had a full figure. But none of those were nearly as desirable as her eyes. They were big and always shiny as if she was going to cry. They were black with flecks of green. But it wasn't the color that caught the attention of the vampires. The eyes are the window to the soul. Her soul is full of pain and sadness. She'll never be able to forget her past. That's what lures the vampires. They like the tainted innocence. Her real name forgotten. She was just under two-hundred years old. When she was first bit, she had horrible nightmares and screamed in through out the night which left her voice squicky. So with her petite body and voice, they called her pipsquik or pips.
She was here because Ashley had caused destruction yet again. Now that she was in jail, they needed to know what to do with her.
Sighing, the Vampire King said "Make her take care of the royal dragons for the next three years."
"Yes, my lord." Then she dissapeared.
Seven PM. Time to change her bandages and clothes. Marshall Lee trudged upstairs to his room. He went to his large closet and grabbed another pair of boxers and T-shirt. Then he walked over to his bathroom and grabbed his large box of bandages. Then went over to where the human lay and began cleaning her. he didn't need to cange as often anymore. Maybe once every two days. Once he was done with the bandadges, he put on her clothes.
"Nnngh." Fionna murmered. Marshall Lee wasn't suprised though. She was making noises alot now. She was even talking in her sleep.
He sat down in the chair in front of his bed.
Everything had been so overwhelming. Between the whole human situation and having to take care of his kingdom, he was exhausted. He glanced at Fionna and decided to move her position again. He was scared that if and when she was better, she would have blood clots. The Blue Blooded vampire walked over and turned her on her side, almost making her look like a doll. The way her arm hung limp and her pale features glistened in the moon light were just stunning, like a porcelien doll.
He flopped on the floor, to exhausted to sit back in his chair. Slowly the Vampire King fell into a deep sleep.
Marshall Lee woke up around five-thirty. He would of slept alot longer but there was something touching his back. He turned around and saw the human's foot hanging off the bed. He sat up and shoved it back under the blanket, to tired to realize that she finally moved on her own. Once that was done, he slumped back to the floor and closed his eyes.
"Gaaaaah" Fionna said and then stuck her foot out of the blanket again, nudging Marshall Lee again. Marshall Lee sat up, angry. Then it hit him. She was moving. Curious to see what she would do, he pushed her foot back in the blanket. This made her mad and she flung her foot back out, hitting him in the face.
"Fuck!" She was strong. He sat on the bed and saw that her other foot was sticking out too. He chuckled at that. 'Guess she doesn't like her feet under the blankets.'
The vampire got up and got dressed. Then got a cup of water for the human. She was recovering alot quicker than he thought. He didn't even have to force her to swallow the water anymore. He would pour it in her mouth and she would swallow voluntarily. He also started feading her things like tomato soup and apple sauce.
'I wonder if she'll wake up so I won't have to feed her. Whatever, might as well get her some soup.' He set the cup on the night stand and went down stairs towards the kitchen.
Minutes later (To lazy...Sorry)
Marshall Lee floated upstaires carrying the bowl of warm soup. The first thing he saw was that the cup was off the nightstand. It was now lying on the floor.
Clearly not shocked he cleared his throat. Not bothering to get up, she rolled over on her other side and stared up at him. Her eyes were swollen and her face was a little red. She was crying. 'Fuck, she's probaly scared. Yup, that's how every vampire wants to start his day.' Trying to explain to a human that the vampire wasn't the bad guy was so difficult! They were so stubborn and usually delusional when they first meet a vampire.
"What happend? Why am -" Marshall Lee cut hr short, his patience was already wearing thin.
"Look, before you thrash out on me, I'd like to say that you shouldn't. Right now I'm not in the mood."
"What? I'm not gunna 'thrash out' on you. I don't know if this is wierd to you but usually when some one wakes up in a unknown place with little recent memory they would like to know what the hell happened!"
'Damn, and I thought I had a bad temper.'
"Look, all I can tell you is that I was trying to take a nap when you stumbled in the woods, shouting at the shrubbery around you. Then you went crazy and cut youselff up." He gestured toward her bandages to prove his point.
"Oh. Um,sorry you had to see that." She looked down at her hands resting in her lap, blushing.
"Ooooh, so the human remembers. Do tell." Now he's floating upside down, with a wide grin. He can't help it, her story was obviously intresting if it led to suicide.
She kept staring at her lap, she sighed. "Well, my boyfriend-" SHe looked up, her features full of shock then sadnees. "-I mean my ex boyfriend broke up with me after two years. he said that I wasn't queen material. So instead of going home and explaining to my sister-"
'How come no one came looking for her?' He thought.
"-That we broke up. I wanted to be alone so I ventured into the woods. That's when I saw the knife. You can guess what happened next."
"Wow."
"Hey." Fionna said not bothering to look up, she was busy prodding at her bandages.
"Um, yea?"
"Thanks for saving me." She looked up and gave him what seemed like a sincere smile. "By the way I'm Fionna."
"So she has a name. Marshall Lee." He handed her the bowl of warm tepature soup. "Here, you must be starving."
"Thanks." She grabbed it with an unsteady, shaky hand. "So, has anybody come by looking for me?" she said sheepishly.
"Sorry, no. But people don't usually come here."
"Oh." She put the bowl to the side.
"Um, well I'm running low on stuff. I was waiting for you to wake up."
"Oh! No, go ahead."
"Kay, I'll be back around noon." On that note he left with a poof.
-At the Candy Kingdom~
'Hmmm, what to get the human? What was her name again? Bleh, whatever. Kay, so humans like sweet things. I think.'
Marshall Lee looked around for a store or something to buy some candy. He would just take some but he was kinda on probation here. They've caught him take candy one to many times.
"Poor unfortunate souls, so sad. So true~" He sang quietly to himself, scouting the area when he saw a large crowd of candy people. Cuiosity got the best of him and he wndered toward the front to see thier prince on a balcony with a cat by his side.
"My candied people. I have bad news.-" he started. "- Our beloved adventuress, Fionna, has been declared dead as of today." Everyone gasped in sock and horror. So that's what her name was.
"After the long search across Aaa, we have not found her body. She will bee missed." And with that said he and the cat walked back inside the kingdom leaving everyone confused and sad.
After that he went back to finding a candy store. Who knew finding a candy store in a candy town would be so hard.
Fortunatley he found one and boughgt an abundance of the colorful, sugurey snacks.
He then went to the forest and snagged a shirtful of fruit then headed home.
"Hey, Fionna?" She had flung herself onto the couch from boredom. She slowly turned her head and locked eyes with the blue-blooded vampire.
"Yea?"
"I went to the Candy Kingdom for some human food-" she froze. "And the prince said that you were officially dead. He said that they searched high and low for you and couldn't find your body. Pfft." He rolled his eyes.
"So I'm dead now?" She chuckled a little at that.
"Yeah his cat looked kinda sad. I didn't know cats had feelings."
"BubblegGum doesn't have a cat." then it hit her. "That's my sister Cake!"
"Oh, I was not aware." Marshall Lee said flinging the food onto the floor. "By tomarrow, you should be well enough to go back home. Everyone seeme horrified that you were 'dead'."
"Actually, I started thinking."
"You did!" He faked a gasp of astonishment.
"Shush you! And yes. I did...Can I stay here? I know it seems lke alot to ask of you. But, I really don't want to go home. They'll all see my scars and think less of me. And even if they don't, I still won't be able to face Gumball again."
"WAIT, GUMBALL IS YOUR EX!" He was astonished. He always thought that the candied royalty was gay.
"Unfortunate to say, yes."
"Oh." Long pause. "You do realize what you just asked right? You want to live with me, the vampire king, in a small house hidden in a cave that's no where near civilization."
"Yea. So? I'm an adventurer. I've heard of some pretty bad things and encountered worse. I can protect myslef. ALthough, in this situation, I won't have to."
"And why is that?"
"Well, if you were as dangerous as your trying to portray youself as, then you wouldn't have saved me. You would've eaten me when you had the chance."
"Oh is that right? Did it ever occur to you that you didn't have alot of blood in you and i wanted as much as possible so I nursed you back to health so I'll have more?"
She stared at him with her eyebrow arched. "Then bite me." She scooted closer to him on the couch and tilted her head, letting her hair fall from her shoulders and giving him a perfect view of her jugular.
Shrugging, he bent over slowly. He didn't really want to eat her. He was a vegan. But he did want to prove his point that what she asked was dangerous. Ever so slowly he opened his mouth and stuck out his fangs. Fionna was getting impatient and inched closer to his mouth. Marshall Lee noticed this and was shocked. What kind of human wanted to die? He stumbled backwards.
Fionna burst out laughing. She knew she was right. Marshall Lee's expression was priceless. His eyes got huge like a deer in the headlights.
"See? Your a softie, you don't want to bite me." She said, victory and satisfaction dripping from her lips.
Marshall Lee just crossed his arms and sat on his chair. "You know, all the making fun off isn't helping your case."
She cleared her throat and strared at her lap. "Sorry, I guess."
"It's fine."
"But your reaction was really funny." She smirked.
Marshall Lee just got up and stomped to his room. Geez, he could be a child sometimes.
When marshall Lee woke up from his nap, he turned so that he was lying on his back and stared at the cieling.
"Fionaaaaa!" Marshall Lee yelled, to lazy to get up.
"Yea?" She was already up the stairs and sitting on the floor near the stairs.
His eyes flickered to her when he heard her sit on the floor. Looking back at the cieling, he started thinking. "There's only three rooms in this house. The common room, the kitchen, and the bedroom." He lifted his arm, pointing his finger and moving his arm in a circular motion to emphasize his statement. "So, unless you want to slepp on the couch, then we'll have to go shopping for a mattress tomarrow."
"Are you saying I can stay?" A small smile played against her lips.
He shrugged. "I guess. If you really want to."
Now she was definitely smiling. "Well, your couch is really uncomfortable. So I guess here is fine."
"Hn." He wasn't to ecstatic about her sleeping in his room. He was use to living alone. Now some human was going to be with him in his small, humble home.
"It's late, you should probaly get some sleep." HE got up and headed for the bathroom.
"I'm fifteen. I think I know when it's time for me to get some sleep."
Turning around, he glared at her. "Whatever. But when I wake you up early, don't get sassy."
"OK."
With that Marshall Lee made a make shift bed for him and went back to sleep.
