Chapter 12: Lovers Reunite?
Finn was standing right in front of his ex girlfriend's door, or soon to be girlfriend. Gulping and shaking, Finn had to suck it up, he had to do this for Lucia.
"Marcy I was wondering, could you and I hang out for a bit, I wanna take you out on a picnic." Finn said.
Marcy was stunned by his words, he wanted to go out on a picnic with her? Trying to understand his intentions, she asks a couple of questions.
"Well that's great but, where we'll we go? I mean I can't stay out in the sun, I'll incinerate if that happens." She asked. She felt as if something was wrong.
"I found a place where the sun can't shine down on you, don't worry I'll bring something's that'll protect you from the sun." To which he answered. She had the sun situation sorted out, but what if people interrupted them, or a wild animal tries to attack them?
"Y'know I can't be around people or animals without something happening, what if a wild animal was bleeding and I go into an uncontrollable bloodlust rage?" She questioned. She did have a point, what if someone had the stench of blood lingering on their bodies?
"No people or animals ever come by. It's pretty much deserted but the territory there looks beautiful and healthy." He had answered her question once again. It seemed to good to be true, with that she asked the biggest question of all.
"How do I know I can trust you?" Marcy didn't want to say those words. She wanted to ask why, then maybe if it was in his voice, she would be able to find tones of deception sneakily coming out of his voice.
"I want things to start over, make things new, if you don't believe me you can suck my blood or whatever you wanna put me through, deal?" He concluded with their answer.
"Deal." Marcy had smiled at him. She was going to have a picnic with Finn, for her it was a chance to repair their relationship. They went and made a couple of sandwiches and brought along strawberries, apples and cherries.
They walked to the picnic destination and what Finn said was true. The grass was greener than the surrounding grasslands that he lived around. The sun didn't show at all, but it felt warm like the sun. The feeling didn't affect Marcy at all. It's been a long time since Marceline felt the warmth of the sun, but the sun itself kept her away, a little exposure to the sun itself would end her life.
As they found their spot they sat down, opened the basket, and began to eat. A couple of minutes later they began to talk to each other.
"Finn, I have to thank you for the picnic, everything's delicious." Marcy smiled at him while devouring the red off a strawberry. She felt comfortable around him now. With Finn's anger dissipating and the murderous rage fading away, they're actually getting closer to each other.
"Thanks Marcy, that means a lot." Finn looked down to the ground, the words Lucia spoke echoed in his head repeatedly. He was sweating a bit, what would she say, how would she act if he told her?
"Finn is their something wrong, you don't look like yourself." Marcy was concerned, this was supposed to be a nice and peaceful picnic but there was something in the air.
"There's something I need to tell you, Lucia and I talked about something, it was about us, she wants me to date her and you at the same time. I don't know if I want to do it." Finn had to be honest, he couldn't absorb the burden on his own. But maybe if Marceline rejects him for saying that, who is he to judge?
"Finn I know it seems unfair but does it bother you if both of us agreed?" Finn's eyes widened in shock, did she agree with Lucia? Lucia and Marcy were on the same terms with each other. Finn couldn't do anything about it now. He was forced to let nature take its course.
"I'm heading to the hideout soon, maybe you wanna come with me, perhaps you could meet Lucia, and maybe have a little chat." Finn suggested, but in that moment he was oblivious to the family feud they had. He went back to the hideout, with Marceline following him. He had to tell her about the true history of the Abadeer's rivalry with Lucia's family. The truth finally comes out.
"Marcy, do you know how your father became ruler if the Night O Sphere?" Finn was starting to regret what he said, but he had to go along with it.
"No, he was ruler before I was born. I think he pretty much won by election." Marcy said. She felt Finn was leaving something out, it sounded like he knew something about his rise to the title known as the 'Lord of Evil'.
"Your father had won through terror and treachery. Lucia's father was one of the people who your father went up against. Lucia's father actually cared for the people there. But somehow her father was executed by your father. It wasn't just him, but anyone who didn't want him to rule, people who knew the truth about your father, and there's one more thing, Lucia's sister, she was murdered by you, she saw it right in front of her.
Marcy was shaking at this point, the truth about her father, it all started to make sense. She saw small rebellions against Hunson's rule, people driven to madness and despair, the environment just plain lifeless, as if everything was slowly wilting right in front of her eyes. The worse part of it was that she was oblivious to everything in front of her.
They arrived at the hideout. Lucia was reading something, it looked like a spell book.
"Lucia we're home." Finn said as he sat down on the chair.
"Oh welcome home Finny, I see you brought a guest, that vampire, what was her name again?" Lucia knew well who she was, this was a test to see if she can trust her.
"I'm Marceline, I came to say I'm sorry about what happened and I'm sorry about your sister." Marcy was apologetic right now. She wanted to make things right by her. After hearing the truth coming from Finn, she was devastated about how much she suffered.
"My sister, where's her grave?" She asked, she wanted to confirm something, she didn't know how to go about it. A couple of days before, she felt a familiar presence lingered around this land. She couldn't quite put her hand on it, the only clue was that this presence was close to her, and it felt like a part of her family.
"Your sister's buried somewhere around here, it's where a Princess Beautiful was buried, but I can barely remember where it was." What Marcy said was true, she hasn't been in that graveyard in awhile, but there were a lot of other graveyards she went, it seems that the graveyard Lucia wants to go faded from her mind.
Finn perked up, he knows that place far to well, it was when he tried to get princess hair for the tree witch, she threatened to suck Jake into her bottomless bottom unless he gets hair to cover her bald spot.
"I know that place, I remember where it is." He spoke. Hope for evidence wasn't lost for Lucia. She grabbed shovels and told Finn to lead the way. Her intentions onto going to her sisters grave were written with suspicion. Something was going on, and the question of honor was 'what is it'.
They arrived at the grave site where they found a tombstone who's name was entitled to Myra Tenebris. They started to dig and find out if this 'Myra' character was dead.
Minutes later, they find the casket and opened it. The body of Myra was lying there but the problem was that her body wasn't reduced to a skeleton.
"Wait a minute, shouldn't her body be rotting or something?" Finn asked. Finn was right and Lucia grabbed the body to examine it closely. A wig falls out of her head and came to a reasonable conclusion.
"It's a fake. This body is a fake. She isn't dead. She's alive, Myra's alive!" Lucia bursted with happiness, her sister is alive.
