sorry for the late update i had some issues with my computer but they should be fixed now so here is the next chapter

Red's pov

I woke up it was still hard to breath, but I remembered a little bit more about me before I came here, I was in a mercenary group, I was in it since I was a kid because I was an orphan and the leaded took me in, there were eight of them and there were seven other kids each was adopted by one of the members, it was like a big family some one in the group gave me my broken sword but that was all I could remember right now. I sat up the blankets that were over me fell down I had a red handprint over my stomach on each of the fingertips was a symbol but it was like they were living snakes I watched them till I heard something hit the floor I covered the red hand print as best I could with my arm and looked around the room the woman from the other night was standing in the doorway to what I would guess was the kitchen "you're up." She said today she was wearing shorts and a shirt with a no smoking sign on it

"yeah, that's what happens." I said

"not after what happened to you last night."

"I was just exhausted."

"no it wasn't, you were burning up I was afraid that you were going to burn through the couch, I ended up calling Bubble-gum to see what I should do she said to just put some blankets on you and wait till morning and she would come by with Finn to bring you back to the hospital."

"then where is my shirt?"

"you took it off sometime while you were asleep I guess."

"ok then can you tell me where it is so I can put it on?"

"it's on the floor right there." I looked down on the floor and sure enough on top of a pile of clothes was my shirt I put it on covering the hand print as best as I could till I got the shirt on then I started putting on my sweater "whoa what are you doing?" she asked

"I'm leaving." I said swinging my feet off the couch

"I don't think you should leave and Bubble-gum will be here soon."

"I'll tell you the same thing I told her I can't stay here."

"why not?"

"I have something to do."

"will you let me come with you to make sure you're ok."

"no but, I can't stop you from following me."

"ok, by the ay my name is Marceline."

"ok Marceline I wont slow down for you."

"I'm going to be the one that has to slow down for you." She laughed and I joined in she floated away into what I would suspect was her room I put on my coat and waited for her to come back out, before heading out.

Finn's pov

I woke up to someone pounding on the door I got up out of bed and walked down to the front door and opened it the Princess was there staring at me "where is Red?" she asked in a clam voice

"He is asleep on the couch, we get here really late and he was tired so I let him sleep on the couch." I said

"ok can I see him?"

"well you know he is asleep and he has his clothes off and I don't think it would be nice for me to just let you in to look at him while he is asleep."

"you make it seem like I'm a pervert or something, I just want to make sure he is ok."

"Well it's a real mess up there."

"you don't know where he is, do you Finn?"

"Yeah I do he is asleep on the couch."

"don't lie to me Finn." said PB she was getting angry I could see it in her face

"fine I was walking with him to here and I lost him some how he ran off the trail I think but I didn't hear him leave the trail, I was going to look for him today before I came back to the candy kingdom."

"your lucky Finn that Marceline found him, because he may have died."

"BP I don't know what it is about him but I feel like he can't die."

"Finn every living thing can die, and he is a living thing."

"I'm not denying that; I just feel like he wont let himself die."

"ok whatever Finn lets go to Marceline's and pick him up." Said the Princess turning and walking away she didn't look back to see if I was following her, because she knew I would.

Red's pov

I left Marceline's alone because I couldn't stay there knowing that Finn and the Princess were coming to bring me back to the hospital or to the candy kingdom, I felt weird being around the candy kingdom it felt like the whole place was dragging me down into a pit. I did leave Marceline's alone but I didn't stay alone for long, Marceline was wearing a red top with jeans, she also had a big sun hat and a pair of gloves on. "Red, where are you going?" she asked

"honestly, I don't know." I said

"then why are you in a rush?"

"just how I was raised I guess."

"that you should rush to nowhere?"

"no, not to trust royals."

"why royals?"

"they tend to backstab you, so I never trusted them."

"do you remember somethings?"

"yeah, I remember somethings but just general things and not how a came here."

"well at least you got something, that's better then nothing."

"yeah I guess so." I said then I heard a branch break behind us, I turned and six feet away from me was Finn. "you let them follow you didn't you Marceline?" I said backing away from everyone

"yes I did Red, you need some help, and PB can get you help."

"you will have to drag me back there."

"red I don't want to hurt you but you need help." Said Finn he was slowly walking towards me

"Finn I will do whatever I need to, to get away."

"Red you fainted last night you're in no shape to fight me."

"try it Finn."

"Finn don't hurt him more then you need to, remember its for his own good." Said the Princess

"PB there is no reason to hurt him." Said Marceline

Well like it or not I'm not going with you three." I said Finn ran at me trying to tackle me to the ground but I easily dodged it I bit my left hand between my thumb and my finger and punched Finn into the ground, I thick layer of blood covered my fingers and hardened into a gauntlet, the Princess moved reaching for something behind her "do did it or he will die Princess." I said moving my hand towards his neck.

"red we were just trying to help you." She said

"I don't think so, now I'm leaving and you better not follow me."

"ok I wont follow you we will leave you alone but if you need help you can always come back."

"Bye." I said standing up and walked away like they said they didn't follow me and I was alone but I didn't feel alone

Finn's pov

I woke up some time later the Princess was sitting beside me on the ground "are you ok Finn." she asked

"yeah, what happened?" I asked sitting up

"Red knocked you out and left."

"so what do we do now?"

"we know he is strong, but how strong he is exactly I don't know."

"well that's that then."

"Finn he could be the most powerful person alive right now, we need to capture him or to help him out in someway."

"do you know where he went?"

"well no but we have to search for him."

"Ooo is a big place and he is one guy and if he doesn't move it could still take a long time."

"but I don't feel good just letting him run around."

"PB what could red do?"

"Fine Finn just you know keep an eye out for him."

"I will now Let's go and hope that Red will turn up sooner rather then later." I said standing up and walking away back home when I got home Jake was sitting at the table I sat across from him "Hi Finn did you visit Red?" he asked

"yeah I shown him around yesterday then I lost him, then I found him this morning."

"Where is he now?"

"I went with PB to try and get him back and he knocked me out and ran away, so now we don't know where he is and he could be really powerful."

"then we need to look for him."

"If he wanted to be here he would be, and we don't know where he went he could be anywhere by now."

"then what do we do?"

"just wait till he shows up."

"he could be dead by then."

"well unless you want to spend days or weeks trying to find him that's what we do."

"once we hear about anything that maybe him we go to it right away."

"ok Jake we'll go." I said leaning back in the chair
