"Another wasted day." Darren said as he opened the door to the tree house, walked a few steps and let himself fall on top of the couch. He was wearing a torn black shirt, and torn slightly faded jeans, only one shoe on, and his face slightly bruised and scratched. He was staying with Finn and Jake till they found some way to send him back to his time.

"Sorry we didn't find anything to help you get back." Finn apologized closing the door to the tree house then he too relaxed on the chair nearby. For the past 4 days they have been going kingdom to kingdom trying to find anything to help Darren get back home, spells, devices, tricks, machinery, portals, magical beasts. All resulting in flukes, with either Darren getting slickly blown up, or eaten then puked out. Finn took Darren with him, and considering Jake could stretch far places took by himself to find the things.

"Not your fault Finn, hopefully Jake had better luck then we have." Darren groaned sitting up on the couch, as the window shattered and a black bag flew in landing on top of Darren.

"More clothes for you." Jake's voice was heard as he soon stretched within the room.

"So no luck." Finn asked.

"None, only clothes left for Darren, and some more notes." Jake said as Darren opened the bag to show clothing and some notes from Insanity.

"Well that goes every Kingdom." Darren groaned as he threw the bag to the ground, as a small computer game came walking into the room.

"Darren." BMO spoke towards him, as Darren moved his eye towards him, and leaned forward.

"Yeah." Darren asked.

"I did it." BMO told him with a smile. Darren looked at BMO with a blank expression till he grabbed BMO and tossed him into the air, catching him then throwing him up in the air again. Finn and Jake were shocked by the sudden action were about to stop till they heard BMO giggling and laughing, and Darren with a smile, no wickedness, or evil to be seen.

"You fixed it." Darren asked BMO, who shook its head in response. BMO got out of Darren's grasp and walked down the hall and came back with Darren's iPod. Darren was about to grab it till BMO pulled it away from his reach.

"Nah ah, our agreement." BMO told.

"Fine you can have it." Darren said.

"Yay BMO." BMO cheered as he tossed Darren the iPod and ran away. Darren placed the earphones on, pressed a button and let out a relaxing sigh, and melted onto the couch. BMO came back with Darren's laptop and turned it on.

"Uh BMO what you doing?" Finn asked.

"Darren said if I was able to fix the broken screen from his laptop and place his music back in his iPod I could keep his laptop." BMO said as he moved the mouse and pressed something as the game 'Fruit Ninja' showed, BMO cheered as he began to slash the fruit that appeared on the screen.

"Cool, BMO let me try." Finn said going for the laptop, till BMO picked it up and ran in to the hole on the wall and continued to play while giggling. "BMO." Finn whined.

"Darren." Jake said poking Darren in the face as he opened his eye and took off one earphone.

"Yeah." Darren asked.

"Just telling you there's still three kingdoms we haven't checked." Jake told as Darren got up.

"Which ones." Darren asked holding Jake's shoulders.

"Well I don't think you'll like to go to a few." Jake told.

"Just say them." Darren told him.

"Well Fire Kingdom, Lemon Kingdom, and Water Kingdom." Jake said.

"Water Kingdom?" Darren asked bewildered.

"Yeah what of it?" Jake asked.

"Well I've never heard of that Kingdom." Darren told him.

"What are you talking about, you haven't even been here, how are you suppose to know what Kingdoms are in OOO." Jake said.

"Oh right never mind." 'Keep it on the down low that they're a TV show, or are they real? Wait am I now part of the TV show...FUCK.' "Still my options are getting burned alive, drowned, or eaten alive by gluttony." Darren said referring to Lemongrab in the last one.

"Well what do you choose, also Water Kingdom has air within its Kingdom." Jake told him.

"Well not much of a choice do I. Water Kingdom it is." Darren said.

"Good, then you and Finn can go, I need to rest." Jake said stretching upstairs. Finn sat next to Darren his usual attitude replaced with gloominess.

"What's wrong." Darren asked.

"What oh nothing." Finn told him, as Darren just starred at him not convinced, the two stayed that way for some time both not moving as Darren starred deep into Finn's soul, as Finn got uncomfortable. "WHAT." Finn finally yelled out.

"Tell me what's really wrong and I'll stop staring." Darren told him.

"Fine...I don't wanna go to Water Kingdom." Finn told him.

"Cause of your fear of water." Darren asked.

"No, because, I hate Water Prince." Finn told him, as he clutched his hands to fists.

"And why is that." Darren asked.

"Because, you see I used to have a girlfriend, Flame Princess. We broke up 2 years ago." Finn said as Darren shaked his head as he was getting new info, as well as realizing Finn was now 17 years now. "And well some time ago, she decided she needed a King by her side, so she.." Finn trailed off.

"Water Prince is the King she decided upon isn't it." Darren finished as Finn shook his head. "So they're married?"

"NO, they will be in a few days." Finn said sadly.

"Oh so you still have feelings for her?" Darren asked as Finn shook his head once again. "Don't worry we just gotta go for some time then bail, all right."

"Okay, well see you tomorrow." Finn said as he got off the couch and went up the ladder towards his room. Darren layed on the couch where he slept everyday, as he listened to Three Days Grace, as he fell to sleep. "Also Darren." Finn said coming back to the room.

"Yeah." Darren responded.

"When will you tell me?" Finn asked, Finn has been asking about Darren about other humans. Darren didn't want to tell him considering with everything they have done. Killing, rampaging, war, violence, rape, the list continues, and Darren didn't want to be the one that kills Finns dreams of finding more humans.

"In good time Finn." Darren simply said.

"Oh, okay then, night." Finn said going back to his room, as Darren finally went to sleep.

"This is Water Kingdom?" Darren asked, he and Finn were standing near the side of a puddle no more then 3 meters across.

"Yeah." Finn said as Darren bent over examining the small puddle claiming to be the Water Kingdom.

"I don't see ho-" Darren was cut short as he was pushed forward as he fell into the puddle. Darren opened hiss eyes to see he was phasing through a wall of water as he suddenly fell to the ground coughing up some water. Finn came not too far behind as he looked down at Darren.

"What wrong with you?" Finn asked, as Darren coughed some more water out of his lungs.

"You could have told me before shoving me in that the puddle is a doorway to the Kingdom." Darren said getting up then seeing where he and Finn were at. The place was gorgeous, there was houses everywhere all lining up towards the Castle. The houses looked like any ordinary houses, the structure was well made, the houses seemed like they were made of glass, but at better perspective they were made of highly condensed water, condensed to stay within it's form of walls, doors, windows, etc. The ground they stood on was water as well, highly condensed salt water so that they were able to literally walk on water, as ripples spread each time they took a step. The citizens looked humanoid, they had either light blue, or greenish blue colored skin, with hair resembling a waterfall, as it disappeared at the end of their hair and seemed to continue forever as it flowed through their heads. "Wow, this is better then I thought."

"Yeah yeah, come on I don't want to be here." Finn spoke annoyance in his voice. Darren got up, taking careful steps when he walked not trusting the 'floor' he stepped on. After some time they got within the Castle doors where they were allowed inside. The structure made of the same water, except the inside the water glowed a strange color as it bounced off the walls, as it seemed as they were inside a multicolored lava lamp.

"So where's the guy." Darren asked looking around the room. As trumpets were heard, as Darren and Finn looked up towards a flight of stairs as a man with a scroll was showed.

"Introducing his highness, ruler of this great land.."

"The guy has people introduce him?" Darren whispered.

"Yup." Finn answered.

"..the marvelous, greater of all people.."

"How much longer, it's been five minutes." Darren groaned feeling his legs grow tired.

"Just a little more." Finn said boredom was heard within his voice, as he let out a yawn.

"Water Prince." The man finally finished, as both Darren, and Finn let out a sigh of relief.

"Well, well if it isn't the evolved ape of the land." A cocky voice was heard as Darren's ears twitched, he looked up to see a water elemental he had blue colored skin, fine royal blue clothing, waterfall hair that went back, had a pointed crown placed on top of his head, his way of walking was poise as he descended the stairs, as he held his head held up high with a grin of arrogance.

"I don't know why, but I feel like I'm going to kill him." Darren thought to himself.

"So Finn, what do I owe this humble visit. And who is this, another ape to this world." Water Prince asked his cocky attitude still in his voice.

"This is what Flame Princess choose over Finn. This guys a dick." Darren thought.

"We came for a favor." Finn said, as Darren noticed Finn holding his hands in balls of fists, he could tell Finn wanted to beat the crap out of him.

"Well you know what to do if you want something from me." Water prince said his demeanor still the same no change. As Darren stood there confused as he saw Finn swallow hard as he began to get on one knee. Darren found out what Water Prince wanted, he wanted Finn to bow, and beg. Finn was half way towards the ground till something gripped his shoulder, Finn turned to see Darren holding his shoulder.

"Finn get up." Darren told him.

"What?" Finn asked confused, as Darren placed more pressure on his shoulder, gripping it hard lifting Finn to his feet. "I said get up, we're leaving." Darren said beginning to walk towards the door.

"And where are you going." Water Prince asked.

"Shove it up your ass we're leaving." Darren barked back.

"Why I never." Water Prince gasped, as Finn snickered a bit following Darren. "What you just came here to insult me."

"No, we came to see if this Kingdom had any device, contraption or even a spell to go back in time or something." Darren said not caring what Water Prince had to say next.

"Well why didn't you say so, I have something like that." Water Prince spoke, Darren stopped in his tracks spun around to see Water Prince with his usual cocky smile, with his arms crossed.

"Show me." Darren told him.

The three were walking down a corridor, they were silent, as the atmosphere around them could easily be placed as uneven, feeling hatred towards one another. Finally they got to a door which glowed a bright red and black, Water Prince placed his hand through the door as a symbol appeared upon the door as it opened.

The three walked inside there floating in midair seemed like a water vortex on it's side, showing its top to them, seeing the inside as it spun uncontrollably but stayed floating in the air in the same spot.

"This my dear slightly evolved apes, is the vortex of time. It is able to send people to anywhere in time as long as they think long and hard before jumping inside the funnel of the vortex." Water Prince said showing off the weird force of nature to them. Darren pondered for a moment, something didn't seem right.

"Finn hand me your sword." Darren asked, as Finn didn't think it was a good idea. Even thought Darren may not be evil, well not fully, Princess Bubblegum instructed for him not to have a weapon, but Finn handed him the sword anyway, hoping he will use it on Water Prince, Finn gave Darren the weapon. Darren examined it, it was a worn out sword with a worn out leather grip around the hilt, he examined it for a bit more then chucked it into the vortex.

"Noo." Water Prince yelled as the sword remained within the vortex being spun gracefully till it was spit out the other end. Darren checked what came out for it wasn't a sword, what came out was some leather, and a a huge block of metal on the floor, both looked brand new.

"Finn you got any fruit on you." Darren asked.

"Yeah." Finn responded still trying to figure out what was happening.

"Toss it into the vortex." Darren said as Finn grabbed his backpack took out an apple.

"You better not." Water Prince warned.

"Oops." Finn said tossing the apple into the vortex as it spun inside hen got spit out the other end. Except a red flower came out.

"This isn't a time vortex, it's a youth vortex. What ever goes in there get's reverted back to it's youth stage. You were going to turn me into a freaking toddler, or possibly even an embryo." Darren yelled.

"I don't know what you mean." Water Prince said closing his eyes, and crossing his arms, dismissing the accusations he was getting.

"Dude you brought us here, so you knew what you were doing, and what this does." Finn added.

"You mean that you two intruded within my Castle and I caught you red handed trying to steal the vortex." Water Prince remarked.

"What?" Finn yelled in anger.

"GUARDS." Water Prince yelled, as water elementals wearing bronze and silver armor phased through the walls as they held their swords to Darren, and Finn's necks. As Water Prince stood there smiling.

"Son of a bitch." Both Darren and Finn spoke.
