Marceline was inside the confines of her home floating upside down starring blankly at the TV, she was wondering if Finn was aright, he's been in some battles but this may have taken the whole fights he had. The knocking of the door caught her attention, floating right side up she floated towards the door opening it to find her ghost friends there. "Hey, Marceline we found them." Wendy told holding up a tattered and shredded book in her hands. Marceline looked at the book till she remembered that was the book she made them look for.
"Thanks." Marceline told quickly grabbing it and handing them the album she promised slamming the door on them. Looking at the book it seemed it was handmade opening the book to see the word 'INSANITY' written on the top.
For those who are reading, I'm sorry.
Name: Insanity
Gender: Male
Properties: Deal maker, condemned spirit.
Danger Level: Low
Marceline couldn't help but snicker at that part slowly rising to a laugh then breaking out to a full out laughter. After she got that out of her system she started to read again.
Insanity a low leveled spirit that makes deals with anyone who summons him. The deals he makes must be given back at an equal or higher price, Insanity shall take any offer you give it from possessions to even the souls of your loved ones. Once a deal has been made the person is marked and shall contain that mark until the price has been paid or until the person is dead. One who makes a deal with Insanity can no longer die in peace.
Once marked Insanity goes for one thing and one thing only when ever making a deal, people's souls. That is the main component that drives him and the only thing that actually feeds his hunger. The deals he makes are simply a decoy in reality the marks of the deals steal small traces of the person's souls to feed him ever so slightly having a taste of the souls before eating it once the person is dead.
Insanity can't live without a vessel without one he shall die or be forced to return to his home. The vessel must be with the same gender aka male, a female vessel will not due and a vessel shall last him for only a while till it deteriorates and dies.
Marceline looked at the book thinking it had nothing to help her with her current situation. She continued to the next pages to continue reading.
Name: Sanity
Gender: Female
Properties: Heart's Desires, condemned spirit
Danger Level: High
Sanity, a condemned spirit like Insanity and Insanity's little sister.
Marceline stopped reading and thought to herself. "Oh glob there's more of him."
Though they are considered siblings they aren't related at the slightest. And even though Sanity is the little sibling she has the power to place Insanity back into his world.
Sanity has more power then Insanity and can force Insanity back, though there is a cost. Unlike Insanity who first asks what you want before taking what he wants, Sanity takes first asks what you want later. When summoned Sanity shall read your hearts desires, your wants, your needs and decide whether you are worthy. If you are a damned person she shall burn you from the inside out. If you survive however she'll take the 'sanity' from your 5 closest friends and/or family members, if you are short in friends or family members she'll simply take your sanity if she does you'll be unable to think clearly and wasted your chance.
Even though Sanity and Insanity hate each other without knowing Sanity helps out Insanity by taking away other people's 'sanity.' Letting Insanity to influence people slowly leading to the people to become mentally insane and leading to either being placed in a nut house or committing suicide from the thoughts roaming through their heads.
Once Sanity takes the people's sanity's she shall need a vessel to talk to you indirectly, just like Insanity she can only use the vessel with the same gender. So if you're a male and you don't have a female next to you during the summoning you wasted a summoning along with destroying your friends and/or families lives. But if you're a female and no one else is there during the summoning, Sanity shall take your body and live her life in your body till the body is no longer usable and simply let's you die.
So have a female person next to you during the summoning. Though Sanity is a hard person to get the deals are better. Granting even the possibility to raising a dead loved one. Her powers surpass Death and is able to grant 5 wishes you have. Her deals go from raising the dead, eternal youth, forever peace of mind, intelligence, internal beauty, inhuman strength, and yes getting Insanity out of your life. Though some go crazy seeing their friends and families go crazy and die and eventually commit suicide themselves.
The irony is that even though her name is Sanity she can't raise people's sanity only take.
Sanity= Raising insanity lowering sanity.
Insanity= Raising Sanity lowering insanity.
A contradictory at work.
Marceline looked at the book slightly shaking, not believing what she was reading she could get what ever she wanted but the cost was too high, she practically had only five friends. Finn, Jake, Bubblegum, Simon, and her father. Simon was already close to snapping she couldn't risk losing him and from what she read only Insanity could raise Simon's sanity and helping him. She groaned in annoyance at the book but continued reading to the last pages.
Name: Madness
Gender: Male
Properties: Keeper, damned spirit
Danger level: DANGER
Madness older brother of both Sanity and Insanity, he is the keeper of the doors decides whether who gets let out and in. Though has no say when people summon them. Unlike the others Madness doesn't require anything in return for his assistance. Nor will he do anything unless the offer you give him is good. The only offer he will work for is freedom. Though he is the keeper of the doors to the world he can't leave like the rest of his kind, he needs to be freed. Though for a short time he causes lots of problems when he arrives. Currently known around as the 'Slender Man' causing haemorrhages, minds to go crazy, hallucinations and finally death.
Unlike other spirits that need vessels to survive within our world, Madness needs no vessel for 10 years. He is able to get rid of spirits but decides not to. Just wanting the freedom to kill and to be free to roam the world to do as he pleases.
Marceline closed the book seeing that there was nothing to help her with her little problem.
"I'm Insane, I can feel it in my bones, coursing through my veins when did I become so cold, for goodness sake where is my self control, if home is where my heart is then I lost all hope." Insanity sang looking down towards Marceline who was starring at him little shocked he was there. "Sorry I got bored." He told floating down to see the book. "Hmm, been sometime seeing this." He told.
"You know these?" Marceline asked.
"I was there when they were written." Insanity told reaching for a book going to the very last page of the entire thing showing it to Marceline. Marceline looked at the back page to see what seemed to be the way to summon Insanity and the name of the writer. 'Darren.'
"He wrote this?" Marceline asked.
"Yup, trying to warn people when he turned 10 finally getting his body back." Insanity told floating towards the kitchen.
"Wait his body back?" Marceline asked.
"Yup he made a lot of deals with me when he was 6 and the offer he gave me was freedom to roam this world along with using his body as my personal vessel. I gave him back his body after 4 years of using his body, the next thing he found out he had 3 new siblings, his mother and father separated, his father dead along with 2 of his friends have died while he was in a state of comatose." Insanity told rummaging through Marceline's fridge.
"You're an ass." Marceline told.
"Says you, he was desperate, just like you." Insanity told his head still inside the fridge. "Though you're the first Marceline to do it." Insanity told getting Marceline to raise her eyebrow at what he said. "What surprises me is that you found those oh well one of you was bound to find those it, you're the first Marceline to do it." Insanity told going for a soda to have the door close on him. "Hey." Insanity yelled to have Marceline glare at him. "Fine, may I have a soda."
"What did you mean by 'first Marceline'?" Marceline told.
"Shit, should have kept my mouth shut." Insanity told phasing through the fridge door grabbing a soda and getting it out of the fridge. "Fine I'll talk go to the couch." Insanity told. Marceline hovered over her couch her arms crossed. "Alright first question how much do you know about time travel." Insanity told drinking the soda.
"Nothing." Marceline told.
"Good cause it doesn't exist." Insanity told drinking some more.
"What?" Marceline asked puzzled.
"You heard me." Insanity told.
"Then how do you explain Darren." Marceline yelled at him.
"Okay how about this, you must have heard this one. Marceline, what happens if a person goes back in time and kills himself before time traveling." Insanity asked.
"Theoretically the future guy seizes to exist." Marceline told.
"Good. Now you were there when Darren heard the recording from his laptop right."
"Yeah." Marceline asked thinking where this was going.
"What did I do to the other me." Insanity asked.
"You killed him and-" Marceline stopped then looked at him while Insanity gave her grinning smile. "Wait how are you-"
"Like I said time travel doesn't exist. Bubblegum didn't give me a time travel machine she gave me a worm hole maker. It opens worm holes with different universes with different time and events but similar to the one you're in. Like the multiverse theory where I can do shit and not get killed from the outcomes. Unfortunately there's no future with man eating creatures, sucked. But things needed to be done. You see, Darren couldn't exactly live here that's why, I placed him in a different body and put new fresh organ in that body cause then his body would have turned to dust. But with every plan there's a bitch, that bitch was you. You killed him when he got here."
"What? No I didn't." Marceline objected.
"Yeah you did in another universe you did. Remember when Bubblegum called you for help when Darren was attacking her Kingdom. When you and everyone was pinned while he was shooting. Things went differently one bullet went a little to the right and it went through Bubblegum's head killing her instantly. You went ballistic and charged at him chopping his head clean off." Insanity told while Marceline had her mouth agape. "Yeah, once that happened I had to start all over doing all over again that's when I noticed something each time I would 'time travel' and put Darren here, he would live a little longer cause each universe would go different resulting in him to live longer but to also die more gruesome. And man did he die horribly with every 'time travel', god the last on is still branded to the back of my mind." Insanity told while Marceline could only stare at him seeing his smile widen to a crazed one.
"Man, I can still hear the screams and the gnawing of the skin. You and Darren were trapped in a cave days passed and you began to get hungry, you hunted him down like a savage animal goes after a rabbit. Darren continued to run till he hit a dead end his clothes tattered and ripped, his body bleeding from the scars you caused a look of despair in his eye he held a knife shakingly aiming it blindly around. Out of nowhere you grabbed him from behind and dragged him to the darkest corner of that place and started to rip out his throat with your fangs. I can still hear his screams his pleadings for you to stop while you continued to gnaw at his neck. Hearing him gargle within his own blood even in the dark, I could still see your crimson blood eyes, the eyes of a murderer. You didn't even stop when you drained him dry.
After you drank his blood you ripped open his stomach yanking and ripping to shreds his insides literally swallowing down his organs. And I could tell even after all that he was still alive feeling every shred of pain. I still see that image when I go to sleep letting that sooth me to sleep." Insanity told shuddering in delight of the memory while Marceline could only gawk at him mouth agape. "And that was last time if the theory is correct this time you'll be killing him even more brutally. I can't wait to see what you do to him."
"I'm done." Marceline whispered.
"Hmm, what was that?" Insanity asked.
"I'm done doing your dirty work." Marceline told throwing the notebook at him to only phase through him and hit the wall. "Now get out of my house before I summon one of your siblings to come and kick your ass."
"Go ahead, summon my sister, my cousin, brother, and aunt it won't matter you'll kill Darren either way." Insanity told.
"No I won't the deal's off so I won't kill him like the other Marceline's." Marceline told.
"Yeah you will considering the other Marceline's never made a deal with me. The other Marceline's killed him from either anger, hunger, or just for the simple pleasure of it. Believe me or don't you're gonna kill him it happened 34 times and it will happen this time as well. The only difference will be that your dear Simon would be back with you. Come on Marceline you killed him 34 times, man did I have fun watching you kill him. But ever since I made a deal with you things have gotten even more fun. SO what's your choice killing Darren and getting blamed for it having your friends shune you for it. Or kill him get Simon back and get away scoot free." Insanity told waiting for a response. Marceline glared at him her body trembling to tell him to fuck off and leave, but, she lowered her head not wanting to pass up the possibility to get Simon back. "Good, I'll be taking this soda and leaving, oh and also I came cause Simon was asking if you can make something called, enchiliadas, either way good night Marceline and Kill Darren so I can do this thing all over again, and again, and again." Insanity told phasing through the door and leaving the house.
Marceline sat there looking at the book in the floor she picked it up hiding it under her couch looked outside to see the sun was rising and decided to go check up on Finn.
Earlier
Bubblegum was within her lab constructing a new arm for Finn to have. All the binary components were fitting correctly but just needed to be connected with Finn. It was made of candy metal trying her best to copy a normal arm with working fingers and other figures. She was going to go place it on Finn but caught him in the middle of a heated moment with Flame Princess and decided to leave it be till tomorrow. It was midnight but she didn't have any thoughts of going to sleep. She just wanted to perfect this arm so Finn could have a fighting chance next time.
Darren was inside the treehouse looking up at the ceiling getting up staggering towards the door. "Darren where you going?" Jake asked who was on the living room watching the TV seeing for any news about Finn or Yang.
"For a walk." He told getting out of the house. The small leopard looked up and ran after Darren. Jake looked at the fire place grabbed a sword and poked around the fire to see only ash within the fire place. Darren staggered within the open fields feeling like a tapeworm was eating at his insides. He rested near a tree turning his head to see the little animal follow him then stop near him. "Come here, come on." Darren spoke motioning the animal closer. The leopard hissed at him retracting his claws and beginning to get larger. "Come on, I just want a taste." Darren spoke half his face turning to Yang the mask was near him slowly fusing with him.
Bubblegum was in her lab still fixing anything wrong with the arm the shining light outside her window caught her attention walking near the window she saw that part of her cotton candy trees were ablaze with purple fire. "What the junk." Bubblegum yelled getting a nearby telescope she looked around then found the source of the fire. Darren's leopard breathing fire into the trees. Bubblegum groaned thinking it was Darren letting out some steam. Till she saw a tree be thrown at the leopard she moved the telescope to see Yang in the scene.
She continued to watch seeing the two animals face each other, Yang going for an attack to have the leopard bounce sinking its teeth into Yang. Yang screaming in pain to rip the leopard off him throwing it into the fire following right after it. Bubblegum looked towards the fire then back to the arm in the table.
"This has too be the dumbest thing I have ever done risking my life for an over grown cat." Bubblegum told herself walking past some of the flaming trees holding her Ball Blam Burglerber along with her Electrode Gun with a plasma globe that shoots magenta lightning. She was looking around seeing only trees on fire some with claw marks and broken in half. The roar of an animal caught her attention.
The leopard circled around Yang having a few scratches around its body, Yang twitching a crazed smile on his face. The leopard let out a snarl before charging towards Yang. Yang slashed at the leopard missing letting it claw into its back continually biting into his neck. Yang swinging his arms widely trying to get the creature of him. From the corner of the leopards eye it saw Bubblegum. Thinking quickly it spread its wings flying away from Yang. Yang looked up about to run after the animal till the floor he was standing on exploded. Bubblegum took aim again shooting another ball from her weapon having the explosion knock Yang off the ground. She continually shot at his direction. After a few shoots she let the smoke settle seeing the ground with large holes and tress knocked down.
A rumbling was heard from a tree seeing to see Yang growl and throw a tree off him slowly walking towards her. Bubblegum aimed and shot to have only a clicking sound be heard she took a better look to see she wasted all her ammunition. Yang bounced at her she let out a scream closing her eyes waiting to be attacked. The sound of a different roar was heard she opened her eyes to see the leopard clawing at Yang keeping him at bay. Bubblegum reached for her Electrode Gun. Grabbing it she turned around ready to shoot to see them gone. Bubblegum got off the ground cautiously walking trying to find Yang or the leopard. The sound of screeching was heard clutching her weapon she sprinted towards the noise.
Yang continually banged his back against a tree trying to have the leopard knocked off him. The leopard bit onto his head trying to break the surface,Yang sinked his claws into the leopards neck having blood come from the wounds. The leopard expanded his wings clawing into Yang's flesh. Raising him up from the ground. Flew into the sky dropping him right on top of a tree breaking through the branches. The leopard took in a deep breath releasing it in a concentrated burst on the tree setting it ablaze. While breathing the fire didn't notice the trunk coming his way till it hit it causing it to be knocked off the ground.
Bubblegum heard the anguish cry of the leopard then the roar of what she presumed was Yang. She walked cautiously being careful not to hit the wrong target. A low growl caused a chill to run up her spine she could feel the hot breathe on her neck. She was deciding if it was Yang or the leopard, if she killed the leopard she didn't know what Darren would do to her. She was running the numbers in her head calculating whether to turn around. She looked down to see the too familiar black tail, she was going to turn around till Yang's hand grabbed her weapon's handle breaking it in half the electricity going dim then giving out. Bubblegum gulped seeing her final weapon gone. She felt Yang come closer to her he inhaled her scent she stayed still waiting to see what he will do. Her entire body shivered when she felt his tongue lick her neck. Yang sharply turned her neck to the side biting into her soft skin. Blood being drawn from the impact having her gasp out in pain beginning to trash around kicking and punching at Yang's face. Yang sinked his teeth deeper before a monstrous roar was heard.
Bubblegum turned her eyes to see the leopard there growling in anger towards Yang. Yang released his fangs off Bubblegum to growl at him. The two continued that while Bubblegum could only stay still afraid that any action will be her last. Suddenly the fire from the trees rose around her. She saw the leopard advance slowly setting the floor he stepped on ablaze. She felt Yang's claws release her she turned around to see Yang walk backwards disappearing into the darkness. She let out a breathe of air till the feeling of something hovering over her. She looked up to see the leopard looking down at her.
Released from one animal to land into another one. She closed her eyes when she saw the leopard open its mouth. She felt his tongue lick at her wound feeling a sharp sting. She opened her eyes when it stopped she looked up to see it just there. She reached for her wound to find it healed. The leopard growled she looked toward the direction it was growling at, Yang was in the dark just waiting then went back into the dark. Bubblegum was pushed to her feet, the leopard expanded its wings biting into Bubblegum's clothing lifting her off the ground flying straight towards her Kingdom.
After a while of screaming and flying, Bubblegum was in her room. The leopard pushing her to her bed with his head. Once at her bed the leopard rested on the bed letting Bubblegum to use her as a pillow. Bubblegum felt a little comfort with the animal by her side. She fell to sleep after a while. Woke up a while later to see Yang in her room. She didn't move nor did he, he was just there staring at her, she turned to see the leopard was awake and staring at Yang. After a while she fell asleep when she woke up, it was morning, Yang gone and the leopard reverted back to his cub form.
A while later the leopard stayed by her side she learned a few things about it. It reacts to the sound of a tongue clicking acting as a command. It was a male for the moment it liked the name Alexander cause that''s the name it went by and it was smarter then it seemed. His saliva had healing affects that healed small wounds and was loyal to any royal member apparently. After she got everything cleaned up it was time to have Finn's arm attached. Unlike the other models she made this one had to be connected to have any reaction so it was painful for Finn having the metal connect to his nerves and his bone marrow.
While connecting the arm, and Finn's screaming the window from her lab shattered, Finn, FP, Jake, Bubblegum, and Alexander turned to see it was only Marceline breathing heavily having her axe base in hand looking around.
"Marceline, what the Glob was that for?" Bubblegum questioned of her breaking in through her window.
"Sorry I heard screaming and I just thought it was Yang coming to finishhhhh." Marceline lengthened that word seeing Finn in the room.
"Let me guess, you thought Yang was here killing me." Finn spoke up.
"Yeah, sooo how's the new arm." Marceline asked changing the topic quickly.
"Good." Finn told moving the bionic arm flexing it and stretching. Marceline smiled the blinking of a light caught her attention.
"Hey, Bubblegum, what's with the light?" Marceline asked pointing to a machine o the table.
"Oh, that's just, wait I forgot about this." Bubblegum told going to the machine immediately clicking buttons and seeing the results. "Finn." Bubblegum started with a nervous tone in her voice that everyone caught immediately.
"Yeah." Finn asked cautiously.
"I got some news, it's about who ripped off your arm." Bubblegum told.
"Yeah, I know it was Yang so what?" Finn told.
"No it wasn't this is a machine that identifies people by their actions, I had it conduct a search while you were fighting Yang. And it says that D-"
"Your Highness, I got some urgent news." Peppermint Butler told coming into the room and interrupting Bubblegum.
"It can wait." Bubblegum told.
"No it can't." Peppermint told urgently and commandingly. Bubblegum walked toward Peppermint kneeling to his height to have him whisper the news, everyone raised an eyebrow.
"I see, thank you." Bubblegum told, Peppermint bowed leaving the room. "Finn, I know this is out of nowhere but are you good enough to fight." Bubblegum asked.
"I think so, why?" Finn asked getting off the table he was at.
"Cause, the capture of Yang has been called for by every royal member in OOO." Bubblegum told.
"Why barely?" Jake asked.
"For the killing of the Water Prince." Bubblegum told solemnly. Everyone stayed quiet not believing what they just heard.
"Also Finn, I believe its just right to know who you're really going against." Bubblegum told showing Finn the machine that recorded and analyzed the fight. "Finn, I made you fight Yang to know if he was someone else. And it is someone else the machine conducted that Yang is only a fake name and it showed that you were fighting Darren, Darren is Yang, Finn and he's the one that ripped your arm off."
