Totally Not Beauty And The Beast

Ch. 10

Where the heck is Simon!?

[~Marceline's POV~]

So it's the weekend people! And guess what! Bonni and I won the Music Competition! We were jamming awesome! We even mocked the Great Marshall Lee, it was just so fangtastic, as Crystal says, such a vampire pun and Crystal pun too.

"Marceline! Marceline!" I heard someone yell, it was Simon, he flew into the Music Shop. Oh, did I tell you, Crystal's making me work, and it's the fudging weekend!

"Hey Simon." I said, he seemed so excited.

"Write songs with me again! This time a song that'll catch the honeys' hearts!" He said and I sighed, again writing songs to pick up on chicks, ugh, and I can't say no to him.

"Ugh, fine, later ok? I'm working right now." I said and he nodded.

"Come to the library! We're going to properly research what the honeys love!" He said and left, it's going to be a loooong day. Can't he write songs about something else for a change?

Ding Ding

Someone's here, how nice. I looked up and scowled. It was him, the guy I absolutely loathed. How can any girl swoon over him? He's so..so..so..so annoying! He makes me want to rip my hair out!

"Come now dear Marceline, smile."

"What do you want Marshall Lee." I said with annoyance, he was the last person I wanted to see today. Who could smile when he was around?

He floated over to me and asked me what I was doing, what an idiot, seriously.

"Working."

"Oooh..."

"It's what people do when they have jobs." I just couldn't resist it, he was asking for it!

"Anyways, is the guy with the beard your friend?" He asked and I looked at confused, why was he asking about Simon? "He was boasting about you and him are going to write a song..."

I sighed, was this apart of this plan to 'lure in the honeys'? It still makes me feel so grossed out, writing songs to pick up chicks, ya that just doesn't work for me. "Ya, we're going to write a song together...again.."

Marshall looked at me, it seemed as if he was trying to figure me out or something. "Why are you helping if it bothers you?"

I looked at him. "I'm helping because, well he's someone dear to my heart. That's what you do, no matter how painful it is."

He looked at me and smiled, and oh my glob, his smile is actually really cute.

"That's hard-core, other people wouldn't have thought about helping." He smiled approvingly and something inside me felt so..weird... I've never felt like this before. Strange. "I guess that makes you a little cooler."

What, wait? A little cooler? What the heck does he mean?! I'm plenty cool, again who does this idiot think he this! "Excuse you, I am plenty cool!"

He smiled teasingly and nodded. "Later Vampire Dork!"

I scowled, this idiot was on my black list. "I'm not a dork!!" I went back to doing, well nothing much, not many people do come to the shop, sometimes it's nice, but other times it's annoying because I'm not allowed to play the instruments! Only when customers come, then I can play the instruments! My life is just ugh $%#^#^&!

~Later~

'Yay~ I'm off work, but now I'm stuck with Simon for awhile, I just hope we write a y'know a short song!' I thought and I went to the library, I went inside and looked everywhere for Simon, and I didn't find him anywhere! "Simon? Simon? Simon...!?" I looked once more but I didn't find him. "Hey Turtle Princess, have you seen Simon?"

"Ice King is here!? Should I call Finn and Jake?" She said and I raised a brow, Simon wasn't here? Where was that guy? C'mon how hard could it be to find a guy wearing blue and had a huge beard?

Ok I take that back, I didn't find Simon anywhere, and I could smell his scent, but he was no where! "Where is he?!"

"Shhh!"

"Sorry." I murmured and I looked some more, I then found some books that were about songwriting, along with Simon's notebook, so where was Simon? Then I found a note.

'If you want your friend back, come to this address, or you'll never see your friend again.'

I hissed, I couldn't believe, who the heck was behind this nonsense!? Also how dare they?! Who do they think they're messing with?!

'Come to 52936 Veriada Street, it's outside of Candy Ridges, about 20 mins away. Your friend will be in the hidden house, so come if you care about your friend.'

I crumbled up the note and left the library, I was going to save Simon, whoever took him, that idiot was going to get a major beating, and will realize not to mess with me. "I'm coming Simon, hang on, hang on." I said and I immediately left the city without telling anyone, I didn't want them to get hurt or even taken away as well. "I'm coming."

"Marceline..."

I thought I heard him calling out to me. It sounded to weak, so frail, I was determined to save Simon no matter what!

"D-don't come, it's a tr-trap..."

Ya, I know it could be all a big trap, but still, if it weren't for Simon, I wouldn't even be here. So I have to save him, I owe him big time.

~X~X~X~

"Master, the girl is on her way." A voice said, to the mysterious figure looming over the window

The mysterious figure smirked, please by the news. "Good, tell Alex to keep our prisoner company~."

"Ok Master."

"Oh Marceline, I wonder if you will pass the test.~"

~Hope you all enjoyed!~
