For the next few hours, Finn just lay in bed thinking. Thinking about his new powers, abilities and the tasks he must do. But he had mostly thinking about Fionna. He had been captivated by her beauty mere hours ago and couldn't get her out his head. It was only when Jake shook him did Finn realise what was happening.
'Morning Finn.' said Jake, 'how did you sleep?'
'Fine. Fine.' said Finn quickly
'You ok dude? You seem distracted.' said Jake
'I'm fine. Seriously I'm alright.' said Finn
'Ok dude. I'm getting breakfast. You want anything?' asked Jake
'No, I'm not hungry. I'll just get dressed.' replied Finn
'Alright then, but you're missing out on an everything burrito!' said Jake, 'see you in a bit bro.'
Finn waited till Jake went down stairs before getting out his sleeping bag. As he was still wearing his normal clothes, he didn't want to raise Jakes suspicion. Finn walked over to the window and looked out of it. As he stared out, he imagined him and Fionna walking together, holding hands. He smiled and kept imagining.
'Bmo chop!' yelled Bmo as he suddenly jumped at Finn, hitting him on the back of the neck and startling him. 'If this were a real attack, you'd be dead.'
Finn, surprised and stunned by Bmo's sudden appearance spluttered, 'Whoa Bmo, you took me by surprise there.'
'Sorry Finn.' Said BMO
'That's ok BMO. I was just thinking.' Replied Finn.
'Ok Finn. I'll leave you to think.' Said BMO as he walked off and downstairs.
'See you BMO. I will be down in a minute.' Said Finn. Finn went back to looking out the window. He imagined himself with Fionna again. 'Tomorrow.' Thought Finn, 'I'll see tomorrow.' With that Finn went downstairs in to the living room and had some breakfast.
Later, once Finn had finished eating, Finn and Jake left the tree fort.
'So, where we going Jake?' asked Finn
'Well, I think we should head over to the candy kingdom and see princess bubblegum. She will have something for us to do.' Replied Jake.
'Ok. Let's go!' shouted Finn as he broke out in to a run, 'but ill beat you there!'
'Oh you won't!' shouted Jake as he ran after Finn.
They soon arrived at the candy kingdom. Finn ran through the gates, quickly followed by Jake. They stopped to rest.
'Man Finn, have you been working out?' Asked an exhausted Jake.
Finn, who was leaning against a wall replied, 'No, what makes you ask?'
'Well, *pant* you're the one trying to keep up with me, but today I was trying to keep up with you! And you didn't even break a sweat.' Said Jake.
'Probably 'cause your getting fat.' Joked Finn.
'Shut up.' Whined Jake. He then jumped on Finn playfully and laughed. 'Come on Finn; let's see if PB needs anything doing.'
Jake jumped off Finn and began walking. 'Ok, wait up Jake.' Said Finn as he began to walk.
They quickly reached the main doors of Bubblegum's castle. Finn pushed one of the wooden doors and walked in. The grand hall was mostly empty except for a figure in a flowing pink gown. She wore a golden tiara and was reading some notes off a piece of paper.
'Hey princess.' Said Jake.
'Hi princess.' Said Finn.
'Oh hi Finn and Jake.' Said prince bubblegum as she looked up from her notes, 'what brings you here?'
'Were here to see if there are any quests or tasks for us to do.' Said Jake.
'Well you cou...' shouted princess bubblegum.
Suddenly ice king came in bursting in through one of the windows, sending glass fragments all over the floor. The ice king stopped and floated a few feet away from where Finn, Jake and PB were standing.
'Princess, I have come to kidnap you... again. Then we can marry.' Exclaimed the
Ice king.
'ICE KING! Get the glob out of here!' shouted Bubblegum.
'Yeah, ice king get lost.' Said Jake.
'Come on guys, please.' Protested ice king.
'Ice king, leave before we make you leave.' Shouted Finn who unsheathed his sword.
'Fine, I wanted to do this peacefully but you've forced my hand!' yelled ice king, 'come Ice-o-pede! Remove Finn and Jake.'
As he said this, the ice-o-pede came crashing through the main wooden doors of the hall. It reared its head and let out a roar.
'Get them my pet.' Cried ice king.
Bubblegum screamed as the creature lunged towards them . Finn and Jake propelled themselves at the beast. Finn slashed at the beast several times with the family sword but every time it just kept bouncing off the monsters hard ice skin. Jake grew his fists and punched it but that to no effect.
'See, you can't beat my ice-o-pede! My semi loyal pet, when you're done destroying them I'll be arranging my wedding to the princess at home. Enjoy getting eaten guys.' Said the ice king.
The ice king then grabbed princess bubblegum and flew off out the smashed window.
'Finn!' cried bubblegum, 'help!'
'Princess! Jake we got to hurry up and beat this thing.' Shouted Finn.
'I know but are attacks aren't doing anything!' replied Jake.
'Man,' thought Finn, 'I could have melted this ice-o-pede with my powers, but I can't put my friends in danger. Talk about a dilemma.'
Then the ice-o-pede slammed Jake in to the wall, knocking him unconscious.
'Well that's convenient. Time to get real.' Said Finn.
Finn then unleashed a barrage of fireballs on to the ice-o-pede. Each shot made its mark, crippling the beast. The ice-o-pede let out a roar and charged at Finn. Finn jumped out the way and let out another barrage of fireballs. This time the shots hit and melted each part of the ice-o-pedes body, leaving nothing left but puddles of water.
'I'm coming princess!' shouted Finn as he ran out the castle and towards the ice kingdom.
Finn soon arrived at ice king's home. It was quite cold but Finn couldn't feel it. Finn peaked round the door, being as stealthy as he could. Finn could see PB locked up in ice kings prison. She looked quite angry. The ice king himself was sitting in a chair, looking through a magazine and muttering to himself. Finn moved in to the liar, sticking to the shadows. He moved up behind ice kings chair and stopped, slipping off his backpack and rummaged through it. Finn found the pistol, and thought about shooting the ice king, but realised that was a bad idea. Finn rummaged through his backpack some more and found a glass bottle.
'Yeah this will work.' Thought Finn. Finn through the bottle in further in to the liar, coursing it to smash against the wall some distance from where he was.
'Huh? What was that? Gunter you better not be breaking bottles again!' yelled ice king. The ice king rose from his chair and walked over to the source of the noise. Finn saw his chance and moved over to the cell. PB came over to the cell door. She looked cold.
'Just hang on princess, I'll get you out.' said Finn. Finn started to yank on the lock, attempting to break it. 'Finn, behind you!' cried PB. Finn turned and saw two razor sharp icicles flying towards him. Finn drew his sword and braced. He swung just once, slicing both icicles in half. The 4 icicle pieces landed by Finn's feet. Finn looked around and saw the ice king across the room. The expression on his face showed he was not pleased to see Finn. 'Don't touch her!' Shouted ice king. The ice king created an ice sword and charged at Finn.
Finn parried the ice kings sword, knocking the ice king off balance. Finn swung his sword, slicing off a bit of the ice kings beard. 'How dare you!' cried the ice king. He swung back and both swords clashed with a loud clang. They both pushed against each other, both attempting to get the advantage. The ice king head butted Finn, causing Finn to stagger back. The ice king rushed at Finn and slashed at him. Finn wearily put up his sword. It blocked the attack but his sword got knocked out his hand. 'Prepare to die!' bellowed the ice king. Finn regained his senses and rolled as the ice king swung. Finn grabbed the ice king's leg and pulled him over. Finn stood up and put his foot on the ice king's right arm. 'You really need to stop this Simon.' said Finn, breathing heavily. Finn punched the ice king in the face, knocking him unconscious. Finn retrieved his sword and walked back over to the cell, head throbbing from the ice kings attack. Finn smashed the lock with his fist and opened the cell. 'Come on princess.' said Finn.
'Thanks Finn.' said PB, giving Finn a kiss on the cheek, causing Finn to blush. At that moment Jake came running in shouting. 'Here's Jake the dog to save the day!' cried Jake. Jake looked around, surveying the scene. 'Oh', said Jake, 'you took care of it.'
'Yes I did. Sorry bro.' said Finn.
'It's ok. Let's get Bubblegum home.' Replied Jake.
After dropping PB off at the candy kingdom, Finn and Jake made their way back to the tree house. The sun was setting on a very eventful day as they reached the tree houses entrance. 'I'm going to bed.' yawned Finn.
'Ok Finn. See you in the morning.' Replied Jake. Finn climbed the ladder to the bedroom and got in to bed. He closed his eyes and began thinking about tomorrow, Fiona and the whole hero thing.
