Poor Connor man…

I was really depressed after I wrote this chapter I'm not kidding. Calm down adventuretimedrama, I'm getting these out as fast as I can.

Hey, if you want some music in this chapter, listen to "Castle Of Glass" by Linkin Park. It really explains Connor's situation.

Enjoy!

/ Chapter 12: Fight for Love \

Mark's sobs followed me all the way back to the destroyed Humvees. I was also sobbing a little, but leaving him was the best for me. And him, too.

Wiping my face, I sniffled one last time and returned to normal, and one thought of him would bring more tears and sadness. Making it past the Humvees, I saw a dim fire in the distance and jogged over to it, and the figures were the group.

They saw me coming and they all stared at me cautiously, careful not to say the wrong thing. They were right; I was a time bomb ready to burst out crying. I didn't return any of their stares and sat across from them, putting both knees up and put my arms around them. I looked up to return their stares, and then held my hand out to Finn.

"Water." I said.

"Oh, uhhh… right!" And he went into his green pack and pulled out a bottle of water, handing it to me. I wrapped my hand around it and twisted the lid off, holding it up and taking a drink. The water smoothly flowed down my throat and into my stomach. It felt good to have a drink.

I put it down and looked at the group. Jake was on Finn's lap, sleeping. Flame Princess was next to Finn, on her knees, watching me as well. She gave me a warm smile and I returned it weakly. I looked to their left and there was Ice King with Gunther on him, both snoring loudly. PB was wrapped up in a pink sleeping bag and was dreaming, Marceline was in a dead man's form floating on the ground sleeping as well. Rian covered herself with a blanket and had her back to me, so I couldn't tell if she was awake or sleeping.

Hell, I can't tell any of her emotions or feelings.

I took in a breath of fresh air and wiped my eyes and stood up. "I'll tell you about it later…" I whispered. Finn nodded. "Go to sleep, I'll keep watch." I commanded, pulling the AR-15 across my chest and standing up.

Finn nodded again and sat up, kissing Flame Princess's gem and she blushed madly and he said something in her ear and she smiled, and he went into his green pack and pulled out a blanket and Jake went under his head as a pillow, Finn thanking him and patted his head before closing his eyes.

Flame Princess was the final one awake, but that soon ended when she grabbed a spare thick blanket and pulled it on her and turned on her side.

I turned around from the group and watched the night outside with my AR slightly raised.

My mind flashed back to Mark.

Why couldn't we be the same as before Connor? His voice said in my mind.

Why did you leave me?

I closed my eyes tightly and fought back. You left me. I had no choice. You left me no choice.

Then another voice came into my head.

Haven't talked to you in a while, boy, but I saw everything and man…

I gasped before covering my mouth and sprinting away from the group and behind a nearby tree and looking back to see if anyone followed me.

"Jupiter… show yourself!" I whispered.

I looked ahead to see a faint figure forming in front of me with a weird looking outfit. Jupiter sat with his legs crossed and held up a flower, examining it.

"What's up?" His figure asked.

"Why didn't you tell me that Mark would turn against me?!"

He dropped the flower and sighed. "I… I just wanted you to find out for yourself, that this world can change you. I'm sorry."

I was silent for a moment before I sniffed. "Okay, can you tell me if my girlfriend is a killer and a psycho?!"

He laid back and put his hands behind his head. "Quite the opposite. She's normal, like you knew her. She misses you just as much as you miss her. But…"

My eyes widened. "B-B-but what?"

"She's been kidnapped by your neighborhood friendly Mafia."

My hands shook with horror. "Oh no… I know what they do to… My god…" I buried my face in my hands. "WHERE?!"

He put up his hands. "Chill! I'll put another star in the air. Connor, I've seen what you've done and its badass, but you won't be able to do this alone. The base is heavily guarded. It's lead by Kravo."

"I'll go with Finn."

"That might work. Well, I gotta go right now, I'll get that star in the air, and uhhh… good luck!" And with that, he started to fade away.

"Jupiter, I've always wondered this… What's your real name?"

He stopped and looked at me for a second. "My name?"

"Yeah."

He looked to the left then back at me. "It's Jacob."

And he faded away. When I looked back up at the sky, there was that green star and I ran back to the group. Putting the AR behind me again, I shook Finn awake.

"Finn…" he mumbled something. "Finn!" and he opened his eyes. "What?" he croaked.

"Jupiter put a star in the sky to show me where my girlfriend is, and I want you to come with me to fight our way through it and save her."

He was silent for a moment before saying, "Okay."

I chuckled and pulled him to his feet. "Follow me, be quiet." And we started to run before someone popped up in front of us and I yelped and fell over, Finn crashing with me.

"Where are you two going?" Rian grabbed both of our hands and pulled us to our feet.

"Rian, you scared the hell out of us." I breathed, wiping my forehead.

She grinned widely. "Sorry, but answer my question."

"We're gonna go kill some freaks and save Con's girlfriend." Finn said.

Rian put her hands on her hips, stepping towards me. "And you didn't want me to come with you to help you?"

I shrugged. "Didn't know you wanted to go."

She poked my chest. "I do, and you're bringing me with."

Nodding, I put my finger to my lips and pulled out my AR and pointed to the green star for Rian to see, and she followed on and I ran in the direction, both of my companions on my feet. Passing the green hills and the grass, we made it into the woods and had to jump a couple trees and move out of the way of a couple before reaching outside and looked at the huge building. It was guarded of course, by members of the mafia. Some had fancy hats on, ballistic vests, and the other members saluted them.

Raising the AR, I motioned for them to follow me. They obeyed, and I advanced on the base and completely letting "stealthy" behind, I went for a full-frontal assault on the heavily-guarded area.

"REVENGE, YOU SONS OF BITCHES!" I battle-cried, firing a straight line at the guards in front of the building and they all fell. Instantaneously, the mafia raised their tommyguns and pulled the trigger. I dived for cover, and Finn too, pulling out his AUG, but Rian, man…

She had a purple, dark aura around her and she raised into the air, throwing a line of knives at some of the guards, hitting them all right in the eye.

Me and Finn slowly raised from cover and watched the beautiful battle. Three of the guys shot at Rian, but she did a barrel roll and charged them, and two of them exploded with a purple outline for a second, then she threw a knife at one and blocked a punch from the other, grabbing his arm, flipping him over and throwing him down. One of the bullets hit her and she fell on her knee and cried out.

"RIAN!" I yelled, and put the AR behind my back and charged, but stopped in the middle of the step when I saw who shot her. The world slowed down and I heard ringing in my ears, not continuously but a ding after a second. The bullets slowed in midair and I locked eyes with Kravo.

He got a look of horror on his face before turning around and advancing into the doors of the building. No! I was not letting him get away. The world came back and I moved my feet forward, running full speed after him.

The bullets flew past me and men shouted at me as I passed them, jumping logs and low-metal walls and bashing through the door with my body. In front of me was a big hallway with metal blue floors and a rug, locked doors with glass, if was a fancy building. Two men's echoes rang through the hallway and I fired two rounds into their mouths.

They fell and I advanced, opening the door at the end of the hallway and I found the main room, with large screens and computers all around, and men in suits were around me as I took a knife from a man's belt and thrust it into his chest, pulling up my Hunter and shot two men in the head, and they fought back but I had better aim as I dived to the side and flipped over a metal bar and rolled, laying on the ground and fired at the men. After finishing the room, I ran to the next door and opened it and I stormed in to fight a battle but it was a staircase with a long fall down and a while up.

A men cried out as he knocked the AR out of my hands and tried to kick, but I sidestepped and blocked, elbowing his chest before he kneed me and I shouted, throwing two punches at his face before I flipped over his back when he hunched over and threw him off the railing and he fell all the way down and bang, he hit the ground. I picked up my main weapon and ran up to the roof.

A helicopter was heard.

"NO!" I shouted as I ran up the stairs as fast as I could, pretty much jumping up the steps to reach the top. When I did, I pushed open the door and the light embraced me and so did the air flying around as the helicopter raised from the pad.

Kravo opened the helicopter door and when his eyes locked with mine, his scared face grinned at me evilly.

"Connor!" He said with the same expression, shouting over the roar over the heli. "Fancy seeing you here. If you're looking for your father, he ain't here!"

"WHERE'S ROSE?"

"Your girl?! She's fine, for now! If you want to fight for your love, you'll have to catch me first!"

And he pulled out a tommygun and signaled for the driver to go higher. Was she in there? As the helicopter raised into the air and started to go away from the big building, he opened fire at me.

I jumped forward and rolled to dodge some rounds, then ran right at the helicopter. It was now off the building and I jumped off the edge, and caught the beam at the side and hanged for a minute before pulling myself up, and a guy riding on the helicopter opened the door and almost stumbled over before trying to kick me off. As the kick came I raised my hand and blocked the kick and climbed in, pushing his head into the door and he crumbled, and Kravo was on me instantly.

I went for an uppercut, he before I even raised my fist he grabbed the wrist and twisted it, and I raised my knee to his gut but he countered with his foot and I fell back into the back of the helicopter. He walked towards me chuckling but I kicked him right in the gut, and he held where I striked and I wrapped my hands around his throat and smashed his head into the helicopter wall and when I let go, he was stunned before he gripped my shoulders and shoved me into the opposite wall, and that's when I noticed the knife.

I grunted as I managed to turn us around and shoved him into the wall of the helicopter, and swatted the knife away and it just so happened to hit the driver. He made a horrible throat noise as he went limp, and the helicopter started to spin. Kravo struggled to hold on, and that's when I strike. I opened the helicopter door and grabbed his shoulders.

"If i'm going down I'm taking you with me!" I growled as I threw myself out of the helicopter with him still in my grip, and we landed on the roof of the building and rolled and a horrible stinging pain shot up my leg as we both groaned. The helicopter started to smoke and it spun all the way to the ground and exploded.

I looked up and so did he, and through the fire I saw a M9 on the roof, exactly in the middle of us. We both started to crawl towards it, but I was faster and dived for it and my hand slapped around the gun and I got up and pointed it at him.

"Where?! Where is she?!" I croaked out.

He smiled, that same wicked smile. "We keep prisoners in the basement." And he laughed uncontrollably.

I threw the pistol at him and he fell to the ground, knocked out cold. And I ignored the pain in my legs and ran back to the stairs to get back down. I groaned when I looked down to see what I had to reach.

There has to be a faster way. I wondered.

An alarm cut through my thoughts.

Warning! The base is going on self-destruct in thirty minutes. All personal are instructed to calmly exit the building. The womanly voice said.

"Oh no, that's it! I'm climbing down!" And the swung my legs over the railing and started to climb down. Red lights filled the station and were blinking and the alarm was an ear-pinching noise as it blasted through my head. After so many minutes of climbing, I reached the basement and opened the door, and I looked down the hall to see it half-destroyed.

Glass walls were cracked, walls were fallen, and fire covered some parts and chemical liquids in the labs and I saw many men and women in white suits falling over each other in a struggle to escape.

"Talk about calmly…" I murmured as I took a right and ran down the hallway. Soon there were no shouts and no footsteps- I was the only one down here. I took a left and noticed a vault door.

Please be it! The burning in my lungs only made me faster as I used the last ounce of my energy to sprint to the door and grip the wheel on it, turning it and once I turned it 360 degrees the door puffed and opened slowly, and I walked inside to see a blue room with three doors.

The doors were: barracks, weapons, and Prisoners.

Prisoners! Tears streamed down my face as I jogged to the door.

I pounded on it with both hands. "Rose! It's okay! I'm here!"

"Everything's going to be okay Rose, I'm coming in to save you!"

I kicked the door open.
