Fionna looked back and forth between Marshall and the Lich's extended hand, repulsed by the thought of going with him but at the same time wanting to save her best friend. Her eyes stopped on the still unconscious Vampire, "You promise?" she asked.

"Promise." The Lich repeated, making the young girl look at him. Fionna hated the fact he looked like Gumball, the Prince could get her to do anything. She looked back to Marshall, his left temple had a bit of dark red blood on it, nothing to worry about though. He is a vampire after all, Marshall Lee can take care of himself.

Without looking away from her best friend, Fionna firmly grabbed the Lich's hand. "Let's go." she mumbled, making the evil being smile. The blonde didn't pay attention to his next actions, instead she continued to look at Marshall. "Ready to leave, my Queen?"

Fionna looked over, somehow the Lich had opened some type of portal, the greenish blue passage way swirled waiting for the two to enter. "Where does it lead to?" she asked, trying to think where he was taking her.

"Just my home, now come." The Lich wrapped an arm around her shoulders, "You'll be fine with me." he reassured.

With one finally glance in Marshall's direction, they both left.

"Where are we?" Fionna asked, looking around the room The Lich had brought her to. The white walls were two stories tall, the marble floors shined even though it was dark, and in the middle of it all was a impressive double staircase. Everything looked spotless, like a hospital.

"My humble house of course." he laughed, his voice much more playful and less wicked. The man walked over to one of the windows, grabbing onto the old grey curtains and pulling them open. Revealing a view of a city, an actual city, with people and cars and skyscrapers.

Fionna ran over, pushing him out of the way to look down at the busy streets below. "A-Are those humans?!" she asked, thousands of them walking on the paths, besides cars and trucks.

"Yes, yes they are." he smiled, she continued to lean against the glass, staring down at the species she thought she was the last of.

"How?"

"It's an illusion, there really isn't anything but a destroyed city down there, but I personally like this view much better." he walked away, leaving the room and letting the blonde stare down in disbelief.

He caused chaos and death, so a ghost town shouldn't bother him right? Why was he such a carefree guy, did he change somehow? Why was she here? What was his plan? All these questions clouded the girl's mind but one stood out among the others, what's Marshall doing?

Marshall's eyes opened slowly, his hand going up to the side of his head. The blood had dried and cut healed, Vampire healing powers come in handy some times. He looked over to small window above the bed, it was dark and the moon was already high in the sky. The Vampire King let out a huff of unneeded air, thinking over the current situation. Fionna's gone, and he's 99% sure she's with the Lich. Even a creature of the night cannot fight the Lich king alone, he needed backup. Cake's not here anymore, Gumball isn't exactly available at the moment. That leaves one option, and Marshall wasn't very happy about it.


SHORT I KNOW! I wanted to end it here because I want Marshall to meet this person in the next chapter!

I'll update sooooooooon!
