AN: So I hope you guys like me putting all the chapters of a story up at once. I know how much I hate it when authors don't put up all the chapters. I just end up getting bored and forget about the story half the time. That's probably what happened with 'Someone Else'. I'm thinking of taking it down 'cos I don't think I'm gonna be able to finish it. It's a weird thing for me. I can't finish a story unless I do it all at once.

On with the story, my lovelies! :)


'For the last time Ice Queen, I don't know what Gumball's favourite type of salsa is.' She huffed and crossed her arms. 'Well you're no help.' She'd been like this pretty much the whole time, digging for as much info on Gumball as possible.

I'd told her little, but she'd managed to learn what his favourite colour, season and cake was. I'll admit, half the reason I was no help was because I actually didn't know all this stuff about Gumball. The more I thought about, the more I realised I actually didn't know much about him. That, of course, did not stop Ice Queen from questioning me about almost every aspect of his life.

After being in momentary silence, Ice Queen broke out with a random question. 'Why do you even wanna find Marshall-Lee anyway?' She asked. 'Maybe because he's my friend?' I said. 'There's gotta be more to it than that.'

I scoffed and blew my hair from my eyes. 'I'm a hero. Saving people is what I do.' 'You're assuming he needs saving. What if he just went on a vacation?' 'He wouldn't go anywhere without telling me first.' 'And why is that exactly?' I could feel her words getting to me.

'Because we're best buds and that's what we do.' 'Are you sure best buds is all you want to be?' I frowned and turned to the icy queen. 'What are you getting at, Ice Queen?' 'I'm just saying you spend an awful lot of time around him. Or maybe he spends an awful lot of time around you. Eeee!' She squealed girlishly. 'Maybe he likes you but is too afraid to tell you!'

I rolled my eyes and continued walking. 'You're totally crazy, you know that?' She floated around above my head and I sighed loudly. She was absolutely loony. Watery buildings slowly rose on the horizon, and I thanked glob that it wasn't much further. I didn't know how much longer I could take Ice Queen's incessant chatter.

I felt anticipation build as we neared the watery city. The dusty road soon grew puddles, and those puddles slowly grew into a river. The water was impossibly clean, even though it never moved. I splashed through the water and Schwabelle clung to my hat for dear life. I did consider 'accidentally' dropping her into the water, but I was not prepared to receive the clawing of a lifetime.

I approached a small inn, and was surprised to find the red-headed witch behind the counter. 'Hello. Welcome to Liquidi-inn. Would you like to check in?' 'Let me at her!' Ice Queen yelled as she flailed for the girl. I held her back and pulled her over to the corner.

'Would you excuse me a moment?' I asked. She nodded cautiously and I smiled. 'Ice Queen, what are you doing?' I hissed at her. 'I'm trying to get my man back, duh!' 'Just let me do the talking, okay. We don't even know if it was her. Just sit back and be cool.' She took a deep breath then nodded. 'Okay.' 'Good.'

I walked back over to the counter and the witch smiled nervously. 'How can I help you?' She asked. 'I'm looking for a vampire and a guy made of gum. Do you have any idea where they'd be?' A look of fright crossed her face, and I knew we'd got our man. Well, woman.

'Look, just let me explain.' She held her hands up defensively and I nodded. 'Okay, just come to my room and I'll explain everything.' 'Why can't you explain here?' I demanded. 'Because he might hear me.' She whispered. 'Come this way. Your room is just down here,' She said loudly.

'Keep your guard up,' I whispered to Ice Queen as we followed the witch down the hall. She led us into a room and sat down at the table. 'Okay.' She took a deep breath. 'My cousin runs a husband finder and since no guys actually applied he's been kidnapping them and making them submit before selling them to these weird chicks on the black market or something.' I felt my jaw drop as I stared at her.

'I know that sounds weird, but it's true. I can take you there if you want, but we need a plan.' 'Wait, wait, wait.' I shook my head. 'Why would you wanna help us?'

'Because what my cousin is doing is wrong. Besides, you two aren't the only people I've helped rescue their boyfriends.' 'They're not our boyfriends. Just friends we wanna rescue.' The witch nodded and winked. 'I get you.' I rolled my eyes. What was with everyone and thinking I was dating?

'Okay, so here's what we're gonna do…'


AN: So do you guys think this chick is legit? That's my favourite word by the way. Legit. It just sounds so... Legit. :P hahaha
