"How dare you Fionna? I thought you loved me!"

"I do, I do I love you Ignitus! I swear!" Fionna sobbed as I watched from the couch curled in a ball quivering, somewhat faking I may add, from the beating that I had gotten from Ignitus. Apparently that's his first name. The fact that he is on fire doesn't help with the beating I had gotten from him.

"If you love me, why'd you kiss him?" he nodded at me with hatred and had venom dripping from his voice.

"I told you I was drunk!" She cried out. "I was dru-hu-hunk!" She choked out. I felt horrible for her. I knew it was sorta my fault for not pulling away. But it felt so right. I sat up and cringed from the burn on my lower back.

"No. No, it's done. First liking Gumball, then kissing him. I, I can't do this. It's over." The flame flushed out the window and Fionna collapsed to the floor bawling. I picked her up and pulled her on my lap on the couch. She grabbed my shirt and wailed.

"Ignituuuusssss! Ignituuuusssss! No no no!" She cried and sobbed and wept and howled herself to sleep. Her reddened face and puffy eyes made me sad. I gently carried to her room and put her in her bed. Afterwards I floated down into the kitchen and grabbed a pomegranate from the counter. As I sucked the sweet redness out of the fruit, I saw Cake stretch up to the window.

"Hey, where's Fionna? I went to Lord Monochromicorns for the night and wasn't able to find her to tell her. Why are you still here? Why does it smell like smoke? Why your face all burnt? Wait…." I looked at her sheepishly. "Oh no. Oh nuh-uh. What the hell did you do Marshall Lee?" She started to grow larger and larger until she almost filled up the entire room. "What did you do to her Marshall Lee?!" Her face was extremely red.

"Cake! Cake stop it!" I heard a muffled voice say.

"Ouch!" Cake yelped and shrunk back down to her normal size and rubbed her stood at the top of the ladder leading to their bedroom. "What did he do to you? Tell me." Cake growled.

"It wasn't his fault." She sniffled. "I was drunk. Can you just leave? I need to be alone." I started to float towards the window. "No. Marshall, me and you need to talk. Alone." She said towards Cake. She nodded reluctantly and stretched out the window I was most near. "Listen Marshall, about the other night, I don't think I meant it. Please, will you leave me alone for a bit?" She started tearing up and cried.

I floated to her and picked her up into my arms. I started to fly her to my house, she needed to hear something.

"Wa- where are you taking me?" She sniveled, but didn't protest.

"I want to show, well, more play, you something." She didn't reply, and I kept floating.

I saw my cave and glided down toward it. As I entered my house I decided to bring her to my room instead of the couch, as the couch was extremely hard.

I set her down on my red comforted and grabbed my axe bass.

"This is a song from before the great mushroom war. It was one of my favorites. It's called-" I got cut off by a thunderous roar from above me. Suddenly, the roof ripped of the top of the house and there I saw Ice Queen, laughing evilly as her pengiunes around her formed almost a cloud and came down on me and Fionna. Instinctivly, I graabbed Fionna and sheilded her from the penguines.

"Marshall Lee!" She gasped, but couldn't say anything more as the birds decended upon us.


"Ughhh" I groaned as I came to. Looking around I realized that we were in Ice Queens castle, imprisoned in her jail. I turned to my right and saw a passed out shivering Fionna. She was turning blue from the tempeture. I crawled to her and held her on my lap, trying to make her warm. She still shivered. I took off my plaid button down shirt and wrapped it around her.

"Shh, shh, it's okay," I wispered to her. "I'll protect you."
