Chapter 2: The Uninvited Guests
[This chapter will contain a character only known from the scream queen comics (named Guy). He and PB kinda dated while she was managing Marceline's band. It's recommended you read those or Google him before you read this.]
3rd person POV
"Happy Birthday!" The mob of candy people cried out.
"What?" Finn asked "Who's Birthday is it? Did I forget PB's birthday?! Oh crud I didn't even get her a–" "No Bro, it's YOUR birthday! Happy birthday by the way." he said with a grin. Finn smiled.
"Really? Man we need to put up some calendars or buy some watches or something. I totes forgot!" Finn said, also wearing a huge grin. "But... um where is Peebles?"
"Oh" Jake said "I think she forgot something. She wanted me to tell you that she'd be back soon." "What did she forget?" Finn asked. "Her crown." Jake said. "She's been gone for a little while, though."
"Should we see if she needs help?" Finn asked. "Let's go." Jake replied without a second thought.

The Princess continued walking to the front of the castle, using the wall for support.
"Bubblegum?" a man's voice rang out.
She could almost recognize that voice. "W-who's there?" she stuttered.
"Princess, is it really you?" the voice said. She turned around to greet it.
"Guy?" she said in awe. He smiled.
He walked up to her. "Who else?"
It took her a minute to take in the person standing right in front of her. She smiled and walked closer to him, forgetting about her ankle.
Her ankle gave out once again, and she fell, only to be caught by him. "Ow" she whined.
"Are you alright?" Guy asked. "Y-yes." she composed herself, once again leaning against the wall. "I just twisted my ankle a little bit. It'll be fine."
He noticed she dropped her shoes when she fell, and bent down to pick them up for her. "Thanks." she said.
"I don't think you should be wearing those after you twisted your ankle. You need ice or medical tape if you want to be able to walk on it at all today." Guy said. She sighed.
"I'll get some medical tape from the Infirmary." He said. "Wait here."
"Wait!" PB rushed "I need to be out there! My friends are waiting for me."
"Just wait. I'll be quick." He turned his back to her and grinned mischievously as he walked in the direction of the infirmary.
Once he was out of sight, he pulled out a communicator. He flipped it open.
"Sir, the target is weak. We must act, this may be our only opportunity." "Where are my soldiers?" Guy asked. "Rounding the corner, look up." He saw three tall figures aproaching, clad in all black, with masks(similar to Robin's).
"About time you showed up." Guy said. "She's just around the corner. She can't walk, so this mght be easier than we planned. Stay alert, we're at a public event, you dont know who might walk through those doors." He finished. He then peeked around the corner to make sure she was still there.
"Go get her." He demanded.

Finn opened the door to the front of the castle, and saw a group of people running toward Princess Bubblegum. "Guy!" she cried "Help me!" she was thrown over one of their shoulders. "Guy! Where are you?! Finn! Jake! Hel-" one of the men that wasn't carrying her slapped a peice of ultra tape over her mouth. "Shut up, you." another said.
Finn ran in front of them "Put her down!" he demanded. The three men ran away carrying the princess. "Jake!" Finn yelled, both running after them, "You get those two, I'll get the princess." Jake nodded.
The three ran into a dead end, and had no choice but to fight. The one that was carrying PB was being defended by the other two, until Jake grabbed them and literally threw them out of the candy kingdom. This is way too easy, both Finn and Jake thought.
"Put her down!" Finn said "let's fight, man to man!" Finn yelled. The man snickered "If that's what you want." He then threw the princess off of his shoulder, and she landed with a hard thud.
"PB!" Finn ran to her, only for the masked man to get in the way.
He threw a punch straight for Finn's face. "Hey!" He said, barely dodging it. Finn reached for his sword, but realized it and his backpack were back at the tree fort. "Jake! I don't have my-" "Man-to-man, not man-to-kid-with-dog." The man yelled, in the midst of throwing another punch.
While they went back if forth between throwing punches and defending, Guy ran over and picked the princess up, helping her to gain her balance.
"Bubblegum! Are you okay?" He faked a concerned look. "Guy, thank Glob you're here. Please get me out of here." He grinned "Don't worry, I will." He let go of her and let her use the wall for support. "I'm gonna go help you're little friend." She looked to see Finn, he was fighting hard. And losing. She gasped "Please! I'm not sure how much longer he can keep it up!"
He turned to see the last man left of his soldiers fighting the teenager. He ran to them, and, while his back was turned, hit Finn hard in his back. Finn fell to the ground, disorientated. "Ugh" he muttered.
"Guy!? What the stuff are you DOING? He's my friend!" PB cried.
Finn started feeling dizzy "Who are you?" he whispered. Jake gasped.
"That's it!" he yelled. He grew to twenty times his size. "WRAAAH" He cried, running towards Guy.
Guy pulled a weapon out of his jacket pocket. "Jake! look out!" PB yelled.
Guy shot at Jake, and hit him easily. He was electrocuted as soon as the cartridge touched his skin, and he fell, shrinking to his original size.
Finn, who's head was still spinning, stumbled up behind Guy while he was distracted.
"Hey, you." he said weakly. Guy turned around, and was immediatly knocked out.

To be continued in the next chapter. So, Guy isn't what PB remembers. What are his motives? Finn won the fight, but at what cost? Next chapter: July 27th (2013, duh), or later tonight. Tell me how this is going and if I should continue. Creative critisism encouraged.
