"I can't do that.", Finn said.
"What do you mean?"
"I can't change."
"Well why not?"
Finn sighed, "Do you remember what I said after Azreth first attacked?"
"Yeah. You said that you meant to hurt people. But, Azreth was controling you."
"No he wasn't."
"What?"
"I can't change...because I like it this way. I like the power. I like the feeling. Besides, I never get any fun. It's always, 'Finn, do this, Finn say that'. I've been under the thumb of Ooo for years, and I'm going to make my own story instead of doing what everyone else tells me. I'm not going to change."
Marceline had a look of shock on her face, "I can't believe you're saying this."
"Well I am. This is how it's going to be. If you want to be with me, you're going to have to deal with it. I can't change just because you want me to, especially if I don't want to."
"I'm dissapointed to hear you say that.", Jake said. He had woken up and heard everything.
Jeff walked into the room, running his hands through his hair in frustration. He mumbled curse words under his breath. "What's wrong?", Finn asked.
"The council wants me dead, and they're not willing to let you free."
"Did you expect anything less from those shitheads?"
"Not really. I'm gonna go figure out a better place to stay."
"Why?"
"Staying in your home isn't exactly discrete." Jeff left the room. "I'm gonna go help.", Marceline then left the room. "Me too.", Jake said. Finn sat in silence for a moment before asking Azreth a question. "Why'd you do it?"
"What?"
"You went back to save them. Why?"
"I felt empathy for them. Since I had control of your body, I also had your emotions. I acted on them without thinking, and look where it got me."
"But you saved them."
"And I won't make that mistake again. Emotions are a weakness. I learned that when my family was lost." Azreth was interrupted by a crash in the room Jeff was in. There was a silence before Jeff came stumbling out into the living room. He was grasping his head and mumbling to himself. "What's wrong?", Finn asked.
"N-Nothing of real importance. I-I'm just..." He trailed off.
"Are you sure you're okay?"
"I'm...not sure...please shut them up."
"Who?"
"They...won't be quiet..."
"Jeff?"
"Can't you hear? They're telling lies...trying to mislead us all."
"What the fuck is wrong with you?"
"SHUT UP! STOP TELLING LIES!"
"Calm the hell down!" Jeff punched the wall, leaving a hole in it. Marceline and Jake rushed in to see what was going on. "He's having an insanity attack.", Azreth said.
"What? He's insane?"
"It would appear so.". Jeff's eyes glowed and he was visually trembling. This could be trouble. Someone with Jeff's powers could do some serious damage.
