Chapter 20
The break out
"I wish to see the prisoner again." Marshall demanded. behind him, Marceline and Ashley kept a stern look on their faces. The prison guards stared at hin blankly. "We have been given direct orders. No one is to see her until after the dissection." One said. Marshall showed his demon eyes. "You would dare argue with your king?" he snapped. The guards flinched. "Y...Yes sir. Right away!" They demanded. They parted and opened the door. "The girls come with me!" Marshall added. The skeletons nervously nodded. Marshall went in and the skeletons closed the door. Marshall immediately ran to the place where Fionna was. When he saw her, his heart both jumped and broke. Fionna had dark rings around her eyes, her eyes were clouded, every single bone was showing and her skin had multiple bruises and she had a bald spot just above her ear. Nevertheless, Marshall ran over and took her in his arms. Fionna stiffened, but when she realized it was Marshall who was holding her, she relaxed and let him kiss her. When they pulled apart, Marshall stroked her hair. "Is this the secret, you being a human?" Fionna nodded. Then her eyes lowered and she turned away. "Fionna?" Marshall asked. Fionna looked up. "Please don't pretend." She said. Marshall raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean by pretend?" "You... you stopped loving me." Fionna whispered. Marshall gently took Fionna and looked her deeply in the eyes. "No, Fionna. I never stopped." He said. There was such sincerity in his eyes, Fionna had no choice but to believe. Marshall pulled her into another kiss, until Ashley cleared her throat. "It's nice to see that you two are still in love, but we have to get her out of here!" Marceline smirked. "Leave it to me." Fifteen minutes later, Marshall and Ashley came running out of the building, screaming. In Marshall's arms, he was holding a bundle of blankets, whispering "You'll be alright!" The guards watched, slightly amused. As they ran away, the guards turned to each other. "Guess the human attacked Marceline." A half an hour later, Hannah came in, with tons of guards. "The dissection begins now." Hannah said. The guards opened the door, and to their surprise, saw Marceline sitting on the floor, strumming her guitar. "Hey, boys." She said, nonchalantly. "Well, gotta go." She opened a portal to the land of Ooo's nightosphere and left. It didn't take a genius to understand. "Get them!" Hannah cried out. "And impeach Marshall!"
