When he awoke he was in the bed at the treehouse. He laid there looking around. He looked outside it was raining swords. "Was… it all a dream?" He leaned up and looked at his hands. No color change. He put his hands on his eyes. "It couldn't have been a dream. It was so real… I… Marcy." He stood up and walked to the door. His body felt the same as he walked down the steps. When he reached the bottom, there sat Jake, playing B-MO. Finn walked next to him and sat down.
"Hey man. You're up." Jake looked at Finn.
"Dude… I had the weirdest dream… It felt so real. I married Marceline and she bit me. Then I woke up. It was crazy man." Finn leaned back against the couch.
"Dude… that's-"
"Let's not talk about it. I kinda feel bad. I really feel like Marceline and I would have makde a good couple." Finn popped his neck. "Owww… I must have pulled a muscle in my…" He rubbed his neck and felt the two holes. "Dude…"
"Finn… that won't a dream. It all happen. You're a vampire now. It started raining swords again this morning." Jake laughed "Dude… that would have been messed up if it had been a dream. Like that time the Worms… WAAAAWAAAAWAAA!" Jake opened his mouth and began to emit the same noise the worms made when they got in Finn's dreams.
"No! Come ON! Not this again!" Finn jumped up but Jake pushed him down.
"Joking man!" He began to laugh again. "Oh man… The look on your face. Priceless."
"Jake… I will kill you. You scared me." Finn exhaled and patted his chest. "Almost died, again." He looked around. "Where's Marcy?"
"Oh she… went somewhere. I think home… like HER cave, home. Which by the way, where will you two stay now?"
Finn rubbed his chin "I feel like her cave will have the best setup, because… you know, the sun."
"Dude… I can't believe you're leaving this place. This is our HOME man." Jake stood up and stretched to the kitchen and pulled back some drinks. "Finn… We have to talk at least once a day. Every day, until I die. Even then… I'll haunt you and we'll still talk."
"I hope. I feel… the same." He looked at his arms.
"Yeah, Marcy said you won't lose color or feel different for a while."
Then they heard the door open and Marceline flew into the room. When she saw Finn she stopped and stared at him. She looked scared of him.
"Marcy… What is it?" Finn walked towards her.
She opened her mouth "WAAAWAAAWAAA" Then Jake joined in.
Finn backed against the couch. Then Marceline and Jake bursted out laughing.
"Oh glob Finn… I can't believe you fell for that." Marceline flew over and kissed him.
"Twice." Jake walked back over and began to play B-MO again.
"I hate… you… both. I'm going to… have a heart attack." Finn could barely speak.
"I love you too, baby. I also have news. It's um… serious." She looked at Jake.
"UGH! Fine!" Jake stretched out the room and into the kitchen.
"What is it Marcy? Finn finally said after catching his breathe.
"I'm pregnant." Marcy said smiling.
Finn's breathe left all at once again. "Pr…preg… with child. You?"
"Yes. You're going to be a dad." Marcy laid her head on his shoulder.
"Oh… glob. Well…" Finn jumped up. "That's an Adventure that will be worth it! Plus I get a little Adventurer!" He was yelling.
Jake head popped around the corner. "Did I hear little Adventurer?!" He ran into the room "Finn! Finn! Am I… going to be… a... UNCLE!?"
Finn looked at Marceline. She smiled and a nodded.
"YES!" Finn and Jake jumped and high fived.
"Finn… I will teach you the ways of Fatherhood."
"NO!" Marceline jumped up. "Nope. Jake, all offence, your kids are scary. One robbed a bank."
"Oh because One out of…." He began to count on his fingers "FIVE, did something bad, I'm a bad dad?"
"Stop you two. Jake I'll listen to your advice, and depending on it I'll consider it." Finn turned to Marceline "Simple solution." Finn then grabbed Marceline and pulled her into a tight hug. "We will be the best parent's ever!"
"Fi…FINN! Crushing me!"
"Sorry." Finn let her go. "Now where are we staying? What's going on here?"
"Ugh… though you'd decide on that." Marceline sighed.
"I'd say the cave. Enough room to live and it's out of the sun's way." Finn pointed at the windows. "You want our kid to melt?"
"We don't melt… we fry." Marceline laughed. "But fine. Cave it is. Let's get the stuff and we'll go tonight."
Finn turned to Jake. "What time is it?"
"Dude… I hate packing. So no. Not packing time, not for me man. I'll stay up there with you, but not helping."
"Jake…" Finn stuck his fist out. "Help me pack. Last time we could do this."
"Ugh… FINE! It's PACKING TIME!"
After hours of packing swords, swords, clothes, and more swords it was time to leave.
Finn cried as he hugged Jake goodbye and walked out the door. He walked a while and turned back. Leaving home is never easy. You grow up there, you have all your fist experiences there, and you never actually want to leave. No matter how bad it is, home is a safe haven. Finn looked back remember it all. The many adventures he had, the battles he fought there, the late nights he spent with Jake, or Marceline. It was all in that house. Now he had to leave. It may not be far from it, but being away from home was too far. He looked at Marceline, and she could tell his pain.
"Finn… we'll visit every day you if you want."
"Marcy… Home is where my heart is, and that house may be called home, but you hold my heart. So where you are, is my real home." Finn smiled and looked back at the treehouse. "I'll miss it though."
Marceline smiled. "I know Finn. Let's get to our new home, together." She picked up Finn and began to fly to their cave. When they reached she landed infront of the cave and put Finn down.
"We're home." She smiled and looked at Finn.
"Yea… we're home." He sighed. "I love you Marceline. Before we start this new Adventure I have one question."
"What?"
"The day you came over you said you were looking for something, what was it?"
"Finn… I came over to see you. I thought you would have figured that out by now."
"Seems like it was too good to be true." He smiled.
Marceline looked at him thinking 'If he really knew I just came over to use his bathroom It'd crush him. This little… non-truth can wait to be told.'
"Come on. Let's start our new Adventure together." Marceline held out her fist.
"In a few months it'll be scary, but yea… It's Adventure Time." He grabbed her fist and pulled her into a kiss. "One last kiss for the people." He smiles.
The rest is history from there. It's a story for another time, another day, and another person to tell. We leave seeing many themes a young boy and young girl had to go through, together. Loneliness, heartache, loss, leaving home, and the fear of the past. Yet through love and acceptance they took their steps forward. Tomorrow can always be better than yesterday and yesterday will only be as good as you make it to be. So accept the mistakes and take those steps forward. Those steps to… happiness.
