I made an error on the last chapter. Billy's supposed to be at least 8 feet tall.
"You're supposed to be dead!" Finn said. Billy grinned. "I thought so too,"
"You see," Susan explained. " This is still your father, Finn. Him and I were so devastated about his death, we tried to revive him. However the only way to was for his soul to use one of our bodies as a host. Steven volunteered and I protested, but it was already too late. We hid all the evidence and never told anyone. People still think Billy's dead. Technically he still is, but only when he doesn't have a host."
"So species am I really?" Finn asked nervously. "You're still human, however you may have a tiny speck of humanoid in you." Susan answered. "Why so little?" "Because Billy isn't completely alive."
"So…the only reason I act so heroic is because-"
"Billy's genes were passed onto you,"
"What about the Family Sword?" Finn unsheathed the red weapon. "That's on my side of the family." said Susan. "Here's the one on mine," Billy took out a sword with a skull being at the end, the blade was white and had runic symbols on it.
"Nothung!" Jake cried. "Yes. This is the Sword of Nothung. And I want you to have it…Finn."
"Me?" Finn's eyes widened. "B-but…I couldn't Bill-I mean…Dad."
"If you want to stop Ash then you need to over power him. I will give you the sword as well as giving Billy's soul to you."
"He's right," Marceline said. "Ash is strong right now. Stronger than he normally is. The three of us can't just defeat him like that."
Finn thought about it for a couple moments. "Okay, I'll do it."
Billy closed his eyes, and his body began to glow. His soul started to transport into Finn's body. It entered slowly going through Finn's chest.
Finn screamed in pain. His eyes and mouth glowed and he fell to the ground hard.
"Finn!" Marceline and Jake cried. They ran over to him and helped him up. Finn opened his eyes.
"Ugh…ouch. Am I still alive?"
"How do you feel man?" Jake asked. "Like I've been violated. But other than that…I feel a lot of energy flowing through me. I feel…powerful…."
"Careful, Finn." Marceline cautioned. "Don't go crazy with power."
"Like I'd ever do that!" Finn exclaimed. "I'm as pure as ice cream!"
"See?" Jake told Marceline. "That's how you should use ice cream in a sentence." Marceline rolled her eyes.
They heard groaning, and ran over to Susan and Steven. Susan was helping Steven up who was unconscious.
"Mom. Is Dad gonna be okay?" Finn asked. "Of course, sweetie." Susan smiled. "He's just a little knocked out is all. Usually he should be awake in five minutes but he's been Billy's host for years so he might stay like this for a while."
"Alright," Finn nodded. "Hey. Where's Nothung?"
Use my power to summon it, Billy's voice said in Finn's head. Just say its name.
"Nothung!" Finn shouted. Suddenly, the sword came flying in the air towards Finn. However, it happened so fast it surprised Finn and he ducked.
Finn, Jake and Marceline screamed as the sword kept flying in the air above them and dodging it.
"Run away sword!" Jake shrieked. "How do I control this thing?!" Finn asked Billy.
You must catch it!
"Catch it? What if it chops my hand off?!"
"Who is he talking to?" Jake asked Marceline, who was still crouched on the ground with Jake. Marceline shrugged, but still had some fear on her face.
I guarantee you that it will do no such thing. It's the handle of the weapon that's attracted to you!
"So the handle's trying to hit me in the face?"
"Mrs. Strong!" Marceline called out to Finn's mother. "Who is Finn talking to?" Susan quickly walked over to them as she tried to avoid getting hit by the sword.
"He's communicating with Billy!" she replied as she reached them. "Billy's talking to him in his head. That's why we can't hear him!"
Have common sense, boy! Compare your hand and Nothung's handle with magnets. The handle's a negative magnet while yours is positive. Therefore, the two must attract!
"Oh! I get it now!" Finn's eyes scanned Nothung, and then he brought his hand up in the air.
Nothung sensed the close presence, and came flying to Finn's palm.
Shing!
A clean catch.
Finn's right hand was in once piece, and holding the sword that once belonged to the greatest hero in the world.
"Yeah!" Marceline and Jake cheered and ran over to Finn who sighed in relief.
"Thanks, Bill."
"…"
Even though Finn didn't hear anything, he could still feel a smile forming on Billy the Hero's lips.
"It's time for you three to go. Don't want that Ash boy causing anymore chaos." Susan gestured them to leave.
"Thanks for everything, Mom!" Finn waved at her. "Yeah! Thank you, Mrs. Strong!" exclaimed Jake.
The trio had been walking or at least ten minutes, and had no idea where they were going.
"Wait," Jake questioned. "So, where's Ash?" "What's that?" Finn spoke up. Marceline and Jake looked at Finn who was looking at the ground bit seemed to be talking to himself.
He was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Billy's says he feels the presence of evil. Chaotic evil."
"Ash," Marceline whispered loud enough for Jake and Finn to hear.
Finn was quiet again for a couple moments. "Billy says to follow him. Let's go!"
The three friends ran to wherever Billy was leading them to, and ended up stopping at a dead end.
"Red Rock Pass," Marceline said. "If Ash wants to get out of this neighborhood, he'll have to go through here."
"We can work together! And smash him with this rock!" Finn pointed to a giant red boulder in front of them. "Then all the souls will go back to their rightful bods!" Jake said.
They hear talking, and look down to see Ash with Princess Bubblegum and…
"Jennifer?!" Finn shouted, half-whispering. "Shh!" Marceline told him. "I can't believe this! Jen's joined Ash too! This is all my fault! If I hadn't kept my cool, she'd still be with us!"
"…and then once we cleared the area…" Princess Bubblegum explained to Ash, making plans for world conquest. "We can travel to this location, and create and ambush…are you even listening?"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Ash muttered. "Hmph," Jennifer smirked. "Our king doesn't want to listen to your unentertaining speeches, princess. As usual."
"What's that supposed to mean?!" Princess Bubblegum glared at Jennifer balling her fists.
Before Jennifer can respond, Ash starts to sing:
Stompin' on ants,
Suckin' their souls
Stompin' on ants,
Souls, souls, souls
His mouth opened and brought the ants' souls in, and he grinned in satisfaction when finishing.
Finn tries to push the boulder, but notices Marceline flying down to Ash.
"What the?" Jake cried.
I'm gonna make you wish you stayed in that pit hole of torment for almost murdering my Finn! Marceline thought angrily.
She charged Ash, but missed when he ducked. "Marceline!" Bubblegum and Jennifer cried. "So…finally taking a run at your old boyfriend, huh?" Ash grinned evilly. Princess Bubblegum growled in jealousy when she heard this.
Marceline grunted in annoyance, losing patience. "You psycho jerk…"
Marceline jumps on his shoulder tries to strangle him, but he karate kicks her off him. Marceline lands on the ground hissing in fury. Her fangs were bared and showing and her eyes glowed blood red.
"MARCELINE! KEEP HIM RIGHT THERE!" Finn head butted the boulder as hard as he could, managing to make it fall, but he groans in pain.
Still fighting, Ash punches Marceline's stomach and evades the boulder. Jake adopts an expression of disappointment as Finn glances at Marceline and Ash.
"Karate chop!" Ash karate chops Marceline on the head, and she hisses. "You can't destroy me!" Ash proclaimed.
"BUT MAYBE I CAN!"
Finn leaped down at Ash, but he just kneed him in the stomach. Finn coughed up some blood and fell to the ground, clutching his stomach and moaning in agony.
Marceline noticed a corner of Finn's forehead was bleeding and gasped. Ash pushed her to the ground and grabbed Finn by the throat.
"Ash, no!" Marceline gasped, watching in horror as Ash choked Finn. "Why should I?" Ash asked.
"We'll stop following you! I promise! Just please don't kill him!" pleaded Marceline. "He's all I really got…"
"Hmm…it seems you have a very stong affection, care and love for this mortal human teen. Very well, I shall spare his life. But you cannot chase us around anymore!"
Marceline nodded. "Thank you…"
"How pathetic," Jennifer scoffed. Ash let go of Finn who fell to the ground and gasped heavily for air. Marceline kneeled beside him, her eyes filled with terror and concern.
Jake tumbled down the rocks, and gained some bruises but went over to Finn and Marceline.
Finn… Billy's voice echoed in Finn's mind. Finn. Wake up! Wake up, Finn! C'mon! Wake up! Wake up!
Finn groaned as his eyes opened slowly. "Jake…Marcy…?"
"Oh, god!" Marceline pulled Finn into a tight embrace. "C-cant…breath!" Finn gasped struggling for air once again. "Marcie, let go! He just survived getting strangled by the Vampire King!"
"Oh, man!" Marceline quickly stopped hugging Finn who gasped. When he recovered and Marceline was putting bandages on his forehead, Jake patted him on the back.
"Nice job…uh…surviving bro. Heh, heh."
Finn couldn't help but notice tear stains on Marceline's cheeks.
"Marceline…have you been…crying?"
Marceline looked at him, and burst into tears again. She put her face into Finn's chest and sobbed.
"I…I was just so freakin afraid of losing you, Finn! I know this sounds selfish but I couldn't bear thinking of being alone again!"
"Alone? But what about your mom?"
"She's constantly on business trips, so we barely see each other. My dad's in the Nightosphere and my aunt is such a slacker! Ever since she got here, she cooked non-stop. She cooked a year-supply of food just so she wouldn't have to cook for me later on! So now all she does is sleep! I don't even know how none of the foods don't even spoil!"
"Marcy…I'd never leave you. You're my best friend."
"Hey!" Jake scowled. "I thought I was your-"
Finn pushed him away. "Even if I do something bad…?" Marceline looked up at him. "Not ever," Finn smiled slyly. He wiped the tears away from Marceline's eyes and gave her a tissue.
She blew her nose. "Thanks, Finn." she sniffed, putting the tissue in her pocket. Finn looked around to see that Ash and his goons, or should I say, 'goonettes' were gone.
"C'mon, guys." Finn stood up. "Billy says if we keep going, we can catch up to them." Marceline and Jake looked at each other anxiously and in a bit sorrow.
Finn read their faces and frowned. "What's wrong?"
Jake cleared his throat. "Well…you see Finn…Marceline, kina…um…how do I put this…?"
"Oh for crying out loud! My desperation for keeping you alive made me promise that we wouldn't follow Ash anymore!" Marceline yelled out.
Finn stared at her, and Marceline looked at the ground in shame.
"Marcy…"
"I know…I was a moron for doing-"
"No, Marceline. It's not your fault. I guess we can't chase your ex-boyfriend anymore. But what if we found a loophole to that?"
"What do you mean…?"
"What if we followed Bonnie or Jennifer?"
Jake and Marceline grinned as they realized what Finn meant. "Good idea," Jake complemented.
Then out of nowhere, a yellow creature, wearing a hat that had a small door on it.
"Mmhmm!" it mumbled. "What is that?!" cried Jake. "A Door Lord!" Marceline answered. "What?"
The Door Lord reached into Jake's pocket and pulled out his viola (How'd that fit in there?) and took Finn's backpack. (Since when did he have the backpack?)
"Hey!" Finn shouted. The Door Lord took out a gift box, and took a strand of Marceline's hair. It mumbled, threw a key in the air that turned into a door and leaped in.
"Our stuff! We have to get them back!" Finn exclaimed. "Why?" Marceline asked. "Seriously!" said Finn not replying to Marceline's question. "Let's go!"
The three jumped in and ran through doors, following the Door Lord who laughed.
Ash, Jennifer and Princess Bubblegum were in Mr. Petrikov's backyard, practically more of an Ice Kingdom since it was exretemly enormous, was filled with snow and ice and had mountains of ice.
Simon was also a scientist, and made inventions ice related which he put in the backyard. He made various creations he named like Snow-Golems and an Ice-Clops.
Mr. Petrikov had also bought much penguins besides Gunter, and there were at least a few hundred. Jennifer, Princess Bubblegum, and Ash had gotten to most of Simon's creatures and were now with Gunter.
"Of all history's greatest monsters," Ash exclaimed. "You're by far the most evil thing I've ever encountered."
"Is he serious?" Jennifer asked Princess Bubblegum. PB rolled her eyes. "great. First Jake, and now the King of Vampires?"
"Offer your soul to me dark one," Ash said.
"Wenk, wenk!" Gunter flapped her wings irritated. "NO! You can't have my soul! I don't even…huh, look, just get in here."
Ash attempted to suck Gunter's soul, but the penguin just slaps Ash in the face. "Wenk, wenk." Ash hears the girls hold back giggles. "Keep your cruddy soul!" Ash kicked Gunter hard, who flew in the air crying.
Simon catches her, in an unhappy mood. "Gunter. Who told you could fly?"
"Wenk," Gunter pointed to Ash, who was sucking another penguin's soul Jennifer was holding up for him. "Huh? No one sucks the life out of my penguins except me! And maybe polar bears…cause that's just nature, Gunter."
Simon drops Gunter and stomps over to Ash. "You dearest approach upon my domain?! My territory?!"
Bubblegum and Jennifer notice Ash's face changing into a more demonic appearance, and their spines shiver. "You've raised my frosty dander!" shouted Simon. "And for that, you will-"
Ash turned and showed Mr. Petrikov his terrifying and monstrous face. "AAAHHOOO!" Simon screamed. "I've soiled my suit! Completely by choice!"
Simon runs away, holding on to the wet spot of his crotch before Ash sucks all the souls of the ice and snow inventions and grows bigger.
"YES!" he yelled in a lower and deeper voice. Jennifer gasped. "It's working!" laughed PB. "Soon, our king will grow stronger, and he'll be powerful enough to unleash the god of all evil in this world!"
"The Lord of Evil?" Jennifer suggested. PB shook her head. "No. Not Marceline's father."
"Well who, then?"
"Lynch,"
I got the Lynch thing from Ooo-NuclearReckoning. Thank you, O.N.R. Anyway, I got nothing else to say but just to review please.
