Chapter 2- "I hate helping"

(A/N- Hey guys. Wow that was quick. I got a really nice review and several pm's asking me to hurry and continue this fanfic so I might as well update it now :P)

Marshall Lee flew quickly, leaving his cave and the lady behind. The only things he had were his ax bass, of course, and the lump of blankets that concealed a baby. At least that's what the lady said. The vampire king flew into a grove of trees that were shady enough to conceal both him and the baby. Marshall hid behind one of the trees just in case he had been followed.

Marshall looked at the brown blankets in his arms. He still didn't completely believe that it was a human. Slowly, the nervous teen pulled back the blankets from the baby's head. Marshall gasped. The baby in his hands had a cute pudgy face and very pale skin. On top of his head was a tuft of jet black hair, the baby opened up his eyes and looked at him with big ocean blue eyes. The little boy smiled and laughed a high pitched laugh, completely oblivious to the danger he was in.

As soon as Marshall saw him he knew that the boy was human. He had the same cute loving lovable and innocent face that Fionna had. The baby giggled some more as The Vampire King poked his little face. Marshall laughed with the baby; there was just something about humans that Marshall Lee couldn't resist. But there was something weird; this baby looked somewhat like him when he was a baby.

The vampire ignored that fact and continued flying to Fionna's house, playing with the cute baby boy the whole way there. Finally, the two landed at Fionna and Cake's front door. Marshall knocked lightly, figuring that they were probably sleeping since it was already getting dark. To his surprise, Fionna answered the door. "Oh hey Marshall." She said. "What are you doing awake?" Marshall asked. "Waiting for Cake to get home." She replied. "She's on a date with Lord M." Fionna smiled then looked down at the brown blankets in the vampire's arms. "Whatcha got there Marshy?" She asked. "Oh ya." Marshall said, almost forgetting why he had come here. The teenage boy moved the baby until Fionna could get a good look at him.

Fionna put a hand over her mouth. "Oh my glob Marshall Lee please tell me you didn't." She moved out of the way so he could float in. "Don't freak-" Marshall began, but was cut off by Fionna. "Marshall Lee I can't believe you!" She yelled. "I thought… But…" She began mumbling. "Fionna!" Marshall yelled. She stopped pacing and looked at him. "He's not mine." He said, smirking. Fionna blushed lightly. "Oh." She said softly, I knew that." Marshall laughed.

"Ok so if it's not yours why do you have it?" Fionna asked as Marshall held the baby in his arms. Marshall told her the entire story. She sat down next to him on the couch and looked at the baby. "So you mean… That baby is..?" Her voice trailed off. "Yes," Marshall answered her. "He is a human." Fionna kept looking at the baby, as did Marshall Lee.

After about two minutes, the baby began to cry. "Arrg! Why is it making that noise?" Marshall asked, covering his ears. "I don't know!" She said standing up. Marshall Lee stood up as well with the baby in his arms. He began rocking it in his arms franticly but that only made it cry louder. "Ugh! Stop crying!" Marshall yelled. "Well that's not going to help!" Fionna yelled. "Maybe it has a full diaper!" She said. Marshall shook his head. "Trust me; if his diaper was full I would smell it." Marshall said. "He's probably hungry then." Fionna said. "Well, you're a human! What did you eat when you were a baby!" He asked. Fionna looked at him with that you're-an-idiot look. "I don't know, I can't exactly remember what I ate when I was a baby!" She yelled, which made the baby cry louder.

"Wait!" Marshall Lee cried. "I remember something from a book I read at the library!" A look of relief swept over Fionna's face. "Ok so what do they eat?" She asked quickly, wanting the baby to stop crying. Marshall smirked. "They drink breast milk." He said, handing the baby over to Fionna. The young 16 year old began to blush. "Marshall!" She said trying to hide her pink face. He laughed. "Well if you're not going to let him suck on it can I?" He asked, smirking again. Fionna blushed more, looking away. "I hate you." She said smiling. He grinned at her. Fionna walked over and handed him the baby. "We have some milk in the fridge, I'll go get it." She said and walked off. A few minutes later she appeared with a baby bottle full of milk and strawberry colas, one for her and one for Marshall.

Sighing, she fed the baby. "When is Cake going to get back?" Marshall asked impatiently. "Soon I hope." She replied sitting on the couch. Marshall sat next to her. "Wow it's only been fifteen minutes and already we're tired from taking care of a baby." He said looking at the little human. "Ya." She said closing her eyes. "I'm thinking we name him Diego." Marshall said. Fionna opened her eyes and looked at him. "Huh?" She asked. "Well we can't keep calling him 'it' or 'the baby' so I was thinking we name him Diego." Fionna laughed. "Well if we're going to name him we are not naming him Diego. How about Toby?" She asked. "Ya," Marshall agreed. "I like that name." He smiled at the baby that had just got done eating. "Little Toby."

Marshall felt something wet on his chest. "Aw man I spilled my drink." Marshall pulled off his shirt and through it in the dirty clothes hamper. Fionna looked away, blushing. Marshall smirked. The young adventuress yawned and put her head on his shoulder. Now it was his turn to blush. The two teens lied back against the couch and fell asleep with the baby in Fionna's arms.
