"Finn! Come on man, we'll be late!" Finn sat up sleepily. "Finn man, get up and take a shower, jeez!" Jake was nagging Finn, but for a good reason. Today the princess is holding a big party.
Finn and Jake had been gone for a week fighting in the Mountain Kingdom's war. The Fire Kingdom and Mountain Kingdom had been at war since Finn had turned thirteen last year. Finn and Flame Princess broke up because the Fire Kingdom has sent flame troops into the Mountain kingdom and burned houses down, and did it without reason.
When Finn found out about the war that started about three months ago, he wanted to side with the Mountain kingdom, but FP wanted to side with the Fire Kingdom, so they broke up and now are fighting in the war.
"Jake what's this party about?" Finn ask, rubbing his head with his hand. He had barely got any sleep last night do to how late he had gotten home. He had stayed at Marceline's for a jam session.
Jake walked into the bedroom, with a plate of pancakes. "It's a political party, or something man I dunno. I'm only looking forward to it because…" Jake stopped, handing Finn a pancake and eating one for himself. He ate until he could speak again, "Finn when you finish the pancake go get in the shower and get dressed man, I'll be downstairs talking to lady over the phone" Jake said as he finished his pancake and walked out of the
room.
Finn wiggled out of his sleeping bag and walked to the closet. He opened it, revealing a pair of red eyes in the darkness. "Hsss!" Finn jumped back and screamed girlishly. Marceline stepped out, laughing. "Ha-ha! Finny boy your such a dweeb!" she joked, throwing him a towel. He blushed a little because of the scream. He sat on the bed, a little relieved It was only Marceline. "Why aren't you asleep? Its nearly nine" Finn ask, curiously. Usually, Marceline slept during the day. "I was invited to Princess pinky's party."
Finn was surprised at this, Marceline and PB usually never got along well. "Well, I'm gonna get in the shower. I'll be out in a minute." Marceline started to float to the kitchen, where Jake would be.
Finn went into the bathroom, and started the water. Hopefully Jake had saved him some hot water. After a minute or two of letting it get hot, Finn stuck his hand in. It was hot enough. He took off his socks, pants, and underwear and threw them in the hamper. He moved the shower curtains and stepped in.
When Marceline heard the shower turn on, she turned around. She floated quietly over to the door, and turned invisible. She peeked through the barely open door and stood there for a moment. She heard someone coming, so she flopped down on the bed and acted like she was staring into space, thinking. Jake walked in, and looked at her.
"Hey Marceline, what's up?" Jake ask walking over to the drawer he slept in. "Nothing much. Does Finn know yet?" She rolled over to look at Jake. He opened the bottom draw, and reached in. "Naw. Don't tell him either. He completely forgot it was his birthday, so he'll be super surprised." Jake fumbled around in the drawer for a second, and pulled out a big box that had been wrapped in decorative paper and had a bow-tie on it.
"So, what did you get him?" Marceline ask, looking at the big box. "Itsa magical pair of shoes. It allows him to fly" Marceline looked at the box. "Why such a big box then?" Jake chuckled. "Its to fool him, he'll think its huge and cool, but it'll be small and cool." The shower went off. "Oh crud Marceline could you take this to the candy castle for me?" Jake hurriedly handed it to Marceline. "Okay… Fine, but you owe me one" Marceline grabbed the big package and flew out the window.
Finn walked out of the bathroom, towel around his waist. "Hey Jake." He looked around. "Where'd Marceline go?" Jake threw him a set of clothes. "She went to PB's party. Come on, we don't wanna be late."
When Finn and Jake got there, PB was waiting outside. She was sitting on a bench, throwing candy seeds to candy birds. "Oh hey Finn, Jake" She stood up, and hugged them. PB leaned over and whispered in Jake's ear. "Whatcha two talking about?" Finn ask, curiously. When PB took a step back, Jake turned to Finn. "Dude we need you to go grab some stuff from the grocery kingdom. Here, take this." Jake reached back, taking a paper and pen from PB. He wrote a list on it, and told Finn to go get it. "Okay man, I'll be back in like thirty minutes." Finn turned and rushed off.
"PB, hurry! Thirty minutes is just enough to finish the party decorations!" Jake and PB ran inside, and started working on the decorations. They had a slight delay when Peppermint butler had tripped while trying to hang up a banner and had broke his arm.
Finn arrived at the grocery kingdom, and found the food market. Jake had sent him to get some weird stuff. He read over the list a couple of times, and made a route plan. He read it over one more time to be exactly correct.
Pick this stuff up man:
1. A jar of pickles
2. A steak
3. A bag of chips
4. A bag of clams
5. A jar of newt eyes.
6. A couple slices of ogre fat.
Dude, be back in thirty minutes. -Jake
Finn thought this was a weird grocery list, but he got the first four easily. Where would he get the last two? He tried a wizard's shop. When he walked in, it was dimly lit, and candles were on shelves. Bookshelves were filled with spell books and scrolls. The cabinets were mostly all closed, except for a couple. There was stuff overfilling the floors, but there was a clear trail to the counter. Finn walked up, and rang the little bell. "Hold up man, I'm busy"
The voice seemed vaguely familiar and Finn was kind of freaked out a bit. He wasn't sure, but it sounded like… The wizard walked out, and his eyes narrowed. "Hey… Check it out" The wizard had dark skin, and his hair was half shaved off, and half really long. "Ash" Finn mumbled, flabbergasted. (Tehe, old people word.) "Its that little hero that my girlfriend broke up with me for…" Finn started to leave, but remembered the list. He turned, and started to walk back to the counter.
"I need a jar of newt eyes, and couple slices of ogre fat. Hurry." Ash smiled and started rummaging through the bottom of a cabinet. He turned back to Finn, and placed the items on the counter. Ash grinned. "The regular price is fifty-two dollars, but…" Ash turned and grabbed a piece of paper. He turned back to Finn, and grabbed a pen that was lying
on the counter. He started writing and once he was done, handed it to Finn.
Eshno egmer hertki leshnijoty teshiruty
"What's this?" Finn ask. Ash pushed the items over to Finn's side. "That is a spell. Use it on a flower for me" Finn grabbed the items, and left. Use it on a flower for me. Finn wondered what the spell did. On the way back he stopped. He kneeled down and got close-up to a flower. "Eshno egmer hertki leshnijoty teshiruty" Finn mumbled. The flower floated up, out of the ground. It started floating off, and it disappeared in the grocery kingdom's gates. Finn picked the items back up, and started for the candy kingdom.
