I am unsure what Death would be like as a girl, so I just kept him male. *Shrug*
(Cake's POV)
She stiffened, but just narrowed her eyes into slits. Death gave her a look that made his calling look as harmless as a teddy bear. Cake shivered.
"Why are you here?" Death snapped, though he stood up straight. She took a deep breath and her ear twitched in an effort to gather her courage.
"I have traveled here two ask two things of you: To revive Marshall Lee the Vampire King and give Fionna back her memory." Death narrowed his eyes at the ginger and white she cat.
"Oh, and Peppermint Maid says hi," She added. Death's eyes returned to normal and a chuckle escaped him.
"You know Peppermint Maid?" He asked.
"Of course!" She grinned. Death smiled (well, the best he could since he was a skeleton) and went over to Fionna, who was pouting with Cake's tail still wrapped around her. He leaned over and Cake looked away in disgust.
Sure, it would get Fionna's memory back, but it still disgusted the she cat. After a moment, the cat glanced back at her sister.
"Aww gross!" Fionna muttered, then looked down at Cake's tail, "Cake?"
(Fionna's POV)
She glanced over at Cake, an eyebrow raised. She was seriously worried and disgusted at the same time.
"Sorry, girl. It was the only thing that would get your memory back."
"And then you are looking for this?" Death asked, suddenly drawing a soul towards him. It was an outline of Marshall, though it was creepy. He had no irises or pupils, and he seemed to just stare off into space. As soon as Cake's tail unwrapped itself from around her, she jogged foward and picked up the soul. It wasn't as heavy as Marshall really was.
She gave Death a weak smile.
"Thanks." Death just nodded and lifted his bony fingers to snap. Their surroundings changed and within moments she found herself in Prince Gumball's lab, Marshall's body on the floor right next to where the portal had been.
Cake was at Fionna's side as she jogged forward with Marshall's soul. She then crouched down near him, letting go of his soul and allowing it to seep into Marshall's body. The transparent white soul disappeared past Marshall's skin, which had its color immideately return.
Fionna wanted to jump up and down when Marshall's chest started to rise and fall again. She leaned down and embraced him, closing her eyes. She had lost him twice now, and she couldn't let him go again.
She felt arms gently wrap themselves around her and her soft blue eyes met his black ones. Marshall grinned.
"Looks like we saved you again," Fionna immideately teased.
"Only took you two days," Marshall joked back. At this they both laughed and Marshall carassed her face in his hands before bringing it forward and gently kissing her.
Her eyes were wide, but within seconds she melted into the kiss. Lava could have been filling the room right then, but they wouldn't have noticed. She ran her fingers through his dark hair, enjoying the closeness and the warmth they shared. And she could only hope that it wouldn't be taken from her again.
Cake just stood there awkwardly, her eyes darting from Fionna to Marshall.
When Marshall withdrew from the kiss, he immideately embraced her. Fionna smiled and hugged him back.
"Please don't leave me again," She murmured.
"Never again," He whispered back, gently rubbing her back in assurance. A creek came from the other side of the room, and Fionna's gaze flicked over to Prince Gumball, who had peeked his head in. Anger filled her expression, but Marshall flew over to him before she could react.
(Marshall Lee's POV)
"How could you?!" He snapped, bringing his fist to gumwad's cheek. The prince stumbled back in surprise, resting against his wall and breathing deep.
"Please, let me explain!" The prince begged. Marshall cut him off by throwing a punch to his stomach. The reason that Marshall was so angry was because of his protectiveness of Fionna. For that night when he had sacrificed himself for Pinky. For
"That was a clone!" The prince insisted and Marshall froze.
"A clone?!" Fionna said, getting to her feet and jogging over next to Marshall. Cake followed her fur lying down.
"I was working on a clone potion so I could give Cinnimon Bun a twin sister so she wouldn't be so lonely, and I accidently spilled it on myself before it was complete. This clone took a life of its own, I swear on my life!"
(Fionna's POV)
"Then die," Fionna said, narrowing her eyes. She could tell that Prince Gumball was lying. The reason being was because of the way that Gumball was worrying his lip betwen his teeth. That had always given away any lie he told. She only knew this because he had to lie once to save his kingdom.
"I swear!" Gumball said again, putting his hands up above his head.
"Too late for swears, Gumball," Cake said, narrowing her eyes. Prince Gumball stiffened, his eyes widened.
Moments later, Gumball was chained in the same exact spot that Marshall had been when she found him. Then, Marshall pulled out a match and swipped it across his jeans. Gumwad's eyes widened.
Marshall tossed it to the floor, and a small flame started. Marshall picked up Cake and floated towards the door. Fionna blew hard against the fire, causing it to spread a little. Then she followed Marshall out the door.
She closed the door behind her and sighed in relief. Marshall put Cake down and swept Fionna off of her feet, much to her protest.
"Shall we go strangle some pixies, my dear?" He asked, overly propper.
"Yes we can, my good sir," Fionna laughed.
And she could have sworn that on her way out she heard a scream. Her instinct was to help Gumball, but she shoved it aside. He had killed Marshall, it was time for him to get what he deserved.
Fionna wrapped her arms around Marshall's neck and placed a kiss on his cheek. He smiled, his eyes flicking over to her for a moment.
She wouldn't let Marshall go ever again. Not that he would ever leave her again.
Yeah, it was sort of a rushed wrap up. But did you guys like it?
