It's been awhile… sorry. JayMan's been busy, I've been busy. We've all been busy. Any who…

She wouldn't leave me alone about writing a chapter, I had some ideas but I'm not just busy, I get a headache whenever I think about writing this story. TO THE NEW CHAPTER!

Finn's POV

"Help! Help!" Someone screamed as Jake and I made our way through the city. So far it was a dark and scary place. Even with the white sky.

"Jake! You hear that?" I ask.

"Yeah, let's go." I hop on Jake's back and he stretches his way around buildings toward the cries for help. He stops, and in front of us was a tiny, grey, old man with blue eyes.

"Whoa, whoa. What's wrong?" Jake asks.

"Someone-someone… someone stole all my kittens!" He sobs.

"Kittens?" I ask. This didn't seem like the kind of place you'd just randomly see kittens running around in

"Oh, excuse me. My name is Georgeous Morleous. I make bean bags out of kittens. That way they are extra soft!"

Jake makes a face, "That's messed up."

"Kittens are evil." Georgeous' eyes switch from red then back to blue.

"Okay….. Don't worry, we'll help you get your kittens back."

"Wondrous!" Georgeous Morleous sings.

"Any ideas who stole it?" Jake asks.

"Oh, yes. See, there's been rumors that…" Georgeous comes closer and brings his voice down to a whisper. "That the slendertubby has been stealing many things from our people."

"Huh." Jake shivers at the thought of the slendytubbies.

"Let's just go find his kittens." I drag Jake away from the old man and we venture through the neighborhood.

We walked for quite a while, but there was no way to tell time by only the sky. I wondered just how we would find this slendytubby and when we would find Marceline. We couldn't have that long before we needed to be back in the Candy Kingdom, right? We needed to get this done as quickly as possible. Now.

"Jake, didn't you say that you saw the slendytubby in the woods last night."

"Yeah but you said it was just my imagination." He mumbles.

"Maybe not… Come on, I have a plan." I say.

"Uh-oh."

Two hours later we were in the woods and the sky had gone black again. We walk along the border of the forest and the field we had crossed to get to the city. All was silent.

"Dude, this is creepy." Jake whines.

"I know man, just stay calm. We have to get that old man's kittens… even if it is kind of gross." I say. Jake crosses his arms. We wait quietly for something to happen, than Jake's eyes light up. "What is it?" He points toward a glowing white circle halfway hidden behind a tree. "Whoa."

"That's him." Jake bites his nails.

"Let's go ask him for his kittens." I start to walk toward the white circle.

"Finn!" Jake pulls me back. "It's not safe."

"Let me go, man." I push him away and walk towards the beast. The closer I get the scarier it looks. His eyes appear to cave in, and it mouth is twisted and distorted into a menacing snarl that doesn't change. "Holy moly." I whisper to myself. Suddenly the face disappears.

"Not fair!" I call out. Then there's a purple body standing in front of me and I jump back, stifling a scream.

"Finn!" Jake cries, ramming a giant fist towards the slendytubby. But it doesn't give up, it flings it's purple tentacles at Jake and picks him up. Pissed, I let out a loud ululation and jump into the air, sword in hands. I ended the war call by slicing downward on all of the beasts extra limbs, freeing Jake, who used his stretching skills to tie him up with his own arms.

"Tell us where the kittens are you messed up freak!" I hiss, holding my sword to his throat.

"'Hey man," He says in a deep voice. "I was just trying to get some kitty love'n."

"Sick!"

"No, no, not like that. The kittens are the only creatures I've ever met that actually except me." He punches an arm into the tree behind him and a black and purple portal opens up. He reaches his hand in and pulls out a kitten. "These little fur balls are just so…"

"Tell us where the rest of them are." I demand.

"Hey, hey. I was just talking. Here," He reaches in again and pulls out a bag full of meowing lumps of fur. "But can I keep this one?" He asks, handing Jake the bag.

"Well…" I took one look at the kitten rubbing against the contorted face. Gross. "Fine, but no more stealing."

"Yeah, we cool." And just like that the slendytubby and cat disappear.

Jake and I walk in silence back to the city, minus the sound of the mewling kitties. One crawls out of the bag and starts climbing up Jake's arm.

"Hey… Hey!" He growls. It continues to crawl. "Get back in there. Hey!" It rub against his neck and rests on his shoulder. "Why you little-"

"Aw, Jake. He likes you!" I coo. Jake grumbles something incoherent. Jake tries to remove the kitty, but it sticks its claws to his fur.

"Fine." Jake huffs.

I'm sorry that no OCs have been added…. Well besides JayMan's…. But that's just because he's selfish. (; No he's not. Anyways, soon. I swear. I will add them just… hang tight. ~Dragonflower

Hey! I ain't selfish! I'm a co-author! I can do that. Plus I have no access to the reviews. (;' ~JayMan551
