Chapter 1 - A Helping Hand

It is three months before the unfortunate events occur in the land of Ooo. As the two heroes Finn and Jake wake up from their slumber, they meet up in the living room of their tree house. They have a light breakfast and after finishing, they sit down on the couch. As Jake reads the newspaper, Finn begins to hum. After humming, Finn asks Jake a question.

"Hey, Jake," said Finn. "Do you wanna go do something outside?"

"Nah, dude." replied Jake. "Let's just chillax here for a while. Besides, I'm trying to read the newspaper."

"Oh, okay." Finn said, continuing to hum a tune.

As Finn was humming, the phone begins to ring.

"I got it!" yelled Jake, stretching his arm to reach the phone.

"Hello?" he answered.

"Yes, hello?" replied the caller. "Is that you, Jake? It's me, Princess Bubblegum."

"Oh, hi Princess!" responded Jake. "Yeah, it's me."

As Finn heard Jake, he leans toward Jake. "Who is it?" whispered Finn.

"It's Princess Bubblegum." whispered Jake. "Don't know what she wants. It must be really important, since she's calling us."

"Oh, let me talk to her if this is some important job!" whispered Finn, taking the phone from Jake.

"Yeah, hi, Princess?" he replied.

"Oh, hi Finn!" replied Princess Bubblegum. "I'm calling because I need you and Jake to do a little errand for me. Come to the Candy Kingdom, and I'll tell you."

"All right, Princess," responded Finn. "We'll come to the Candy Kingdom."

"Great!" answered Princess Bubblegum. "I'll see you guys there!"

"Bye!" said Finn.

"Awwwwwwhh!" whined Jake, dropping the newspaper. "Do we have to go right now?"

"Yeah, we do." said Finn sternly. "We can't have the Princess waiting for us. Let's go."

"All right." groaned Jake, dragging himself up from the couch.

Finn and Jake get their supplies and go out of the house. The two heroes travel towards Candy Kingdom, where Princess Bubblegum awaits them. While traveling, the Ice King shows up.

"Uh, oh." said Finn. "The Ice King's here. What do we do?"

"I say we fight him!" replied Jake. "He's probably here to stop us."

Looking at the Ice King, Finn says, "Nah, he doesn't look like he wants to fight us. Still, let's ask what he is doing here."

"Hey, Finn!" said the Ice King. Giggling and seeming all giddy, he asks, "What are you and Jake doing?"

"No, what are YOU doing here?" retorted Finn.

"Oh, just minding my own business." said the Ice King.

"Well, stay out of trouble." added Jake. "We don't want to kick your butt today, but if we have to, I'm packing some serious rage today."

"Where you guys going?" asked the Ice King inquisitively.

"Stop asking questions." retorted Finn. "We're leaving." Finn and Jake start to walk away from the Ice King.

"I just wanted to know." the Ice King said quietly. He begins to walk away towards another direction.

"Wonder what the Ice King was doing there." said Jake.

A/N: The first chapter of my story brings a tiny margin of information to light, like the date of this current event. It also introduces Princess Bubblegum into the story. Read on, as she is very important to the plot! Also, the Ice King is introduced to the story. He as well will be also important to the plot.
