"Nice! We are done Finn." Bonnibel said happily as she stepped away, looking in approval of the new suit the Mk IX 'Hot Rod'. Finn is also done with the decals of the suit. Both forearms and both lower legs were painted with Flame decal, plus darker details on the torso of the suit. Indeed it really resembles a hotrod.
"So, what do you think Peebles?" he said presenting his work to her.
She nodded in approval "Nice decals Finn, you would make a fine artist you know."
"Nah, I'm just inspired probably. Inspired by you..." he trailed off blushing.
"Such a silly boy" she replied before kissing him in the lips. "Come on let's test this baby."
"Hold on, Princess" Beemo suddenly said the screen shows the new OS program of the suit. "I'm uploading new updates and versions of the OS program. The combat mode, and the flight mode is now simplified, making the suit easy to fly and use however the security of the suit is very secure. Hacking it will be very difficult, only authorized persons can use it."
"That's math Beemo" Finn said.
"Uh, I believe the expression is that's science Finn" Beemo replied, laughing.
"Whatever" then a thought came to mind, "How about when a person with elemental powers uses the suit, will he or she be drain because of the Elixir?"
"Uhhh..." Beemo began thinking of a answer but none came to mind. Clearly the computer never thought about that idea. Bonnibel tapped her chin,
"Hmm... maybe he or she might not lose their powers. After all the Arc Reactor is insulated, right Beemo?"
"Yes, it is. The reactor runs on an independent power, you could say that the Elixir is just running as a amplifier of the suit. It amplifies the power of the suit, whenever it absorbs energy from outside sources." Beemo explained, Finn however is not somewhat convinced and Bonnibel noticed.
"Why did you ask Finn?"
"I was thinking if in case FP will wear this suit, just making sure she will not get hurt."
"Why would FP wear the suit?"
"I don't know, but something in my gut tells me that there is danger ahead, I'm just hunching." He said looking at the window. Bonnibel smiled and reassured him,
"Relax sweetie, Beemo is monitoring Ooo as much as possible. And besides I think Flame Princess is powerful enough to deal with anyone who opposes her. You said that yourself right?" she grabbed his shoulders and give it a gentle massage, Finn gasped at her touch. That's how he likes it.
"I hope your right Peebles" he said.
"Don't you worry Finn." She said as she continued the massage him on the shoulder.
A comfortable silence, he said "So how are we going to test the suit."
Bonnibel looked at him with a obvious expression. "Of course, you already know the answer right? Flame Princess."
"What!?" the human exclaimed, he couldn't believe that Bonnibel will use Flame Princess as a guinea pig for the suit. He immediately shook his head at the thought and stop her "NO, you can't use FP as a test subject! I won't allow you to take her powers just to test the suit."
Bonnibel stepped back from him, surprise by his outburst. He clearly misunderstood what she really meant. "No, no, no Finn! Not like that, my plan is to make her shoot fireballs at me and see if the suit is really working properly." She explained pleadingly, still though Finn shook his head in disbelief so she held his hand. "Trust me Finn please. I won't hurt her"
After a while, he nodded "Okay, okay, I trust you." He blinked once more to take out the image of Flame Princess as a test subject for the new suit, he succeeded. A thought popped to his mind, "Anyway, Jake said that FP called earlier in the tree fort."
"Oh? What does she said?" she raised an eye brow.
"She says that she is staying at her house in the woods. She uses it now as a 'villa', a place where she can escape the duties of her kingdom to relax."
"Oh I see, well that's great, at least Flame shield is not an issue anymore. Come on let's go." She went to the new suit and stepped inside it. Soon the sound of the suit the powering up was loudly heard and the two lined shaped optics powered up. Beemo immediately ran a complete diagnostics.
"Everything is good Princess, you're clear to go." The computer finally announced.
Bonnibel lifted the mask and smiled at the computer. "Thanks Beemo, keep us posted" she turned towards Finn who also stepped inside of his own suit, Hero. The human then walked towards the platform.
"Shall we?"
"You bet!" she jumped at the edge of the platform and activated her jet boots in mid air with a loud explosion. Finn followed suit.
"How's flying?" he asked as they level off at adequate speeds. They will reached their destination in just 10 minutes.
"So smooth, the program Beemo installed is perfect for this suit."
"I wish I got the same system."
"Nah, manual is sometimes more okay than simplified ones. Besides you got used to manual system right?" she looked at him, she balanced her arms and steadied her legs to stabilize her flight.
"Yeah, It's a whole new ball game I think."
"See, oh look there's her house now." She pointed.
They dove deep down until they both almost hugged the tree line, at 300 meters they lowered the altitude and reduced the speed. By the time they reached the opened ground around Flame Princess' house, the suit completely slowed down and landed with a thud. Flame Princess obviously heard the sound of jet propulsion and rushed outside of her house to greet the couple.
"Hey, I'm glad you guys came!" she chirped happily.
Finn and Bonnibel stepped out of their suit and greeted her. "Hey FP what's up?" Finn said as he gave her a light hug.
"Nice to see you Princess" Bonnibel leaned towards the fire elemental, and the two women gave peck on each other's cheek.
"So, you want some tea. Just in time I was about to make one."
"Tea would be nice" Bonnibel said smiling.
"Cookies too" Finn added earning a light punch in arm from Bonnibel.
"Come in." They all went inside. Once they got inside, the couple gasped in awe. From the outside, the house is still look the same, like a huge bonfire. But from the inside it was really a villa. The guess receiving room is full of furniture made from the finest granite and sedimentary stone the Fire Kingdom has to offer, except for the couch though which still posses the same characteristics that makes a sofa and couch. When they sat on the couch, they felt comfortable, as if the soft cushion lovingly hugged their rears. They looked up to see a small chandelier that hanged from the ceiling.
Flame Princess disappeared towards the kitchen to make the tea and snacks.
"Wow, this is bigger than I imagine to be." Finn said.
"You never been here before? I mean inside?" Bonnibel asked.
"No, I usually think going inside will burn me alive back then. But now I was wrong, her house really acts like a house."
"Speaking of houses, do you already have plan for our house?" she said leaning on his shoulder.
"Uh, no not yet" he said scratching the back of his head, feeling sheepishly.
"Awww... you know Junior needs a home. I don't want him being homeless." She said coyly. This made Finn turned towards her in alarm.
"Peebles are you...?" he began wide eyed.
"Pregnant? What if I tell you, I am?" she said smiling at him.
"R-Really?" he stammered, is really is pregnant with his child?
After a long while, her smile when goofily "Got you!" she suddenly said, a huge smile on her face.
"Not cool Peebles, you scared the donk out of me!" Finn said tickling her sides, making her giggle in delight.
"No, no stop not there stop please!" she said between the laughs as Finn continued his assault on her.
"Not until you say sorry" he said in a sing song voice.
"Okay, okay...I'm s-s-sorry!" she said, this time her body twitched a little from the intense tickle.
"I didn't hear you, what was that?"
"You are so m-m-mean!"
"What was that?"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Now stop!" she shouted.
He indeed stopped as they both heard someone clearing her throat. They both looked up to see Flame Princess carrying a tray with the tea and snacks. A amused expression is etched on the fire elemental's face.
"Did I interrupt you guys?" she said before adding "I hate to interrupt but the tea might get cold" she sat the tray down on the table.
"Its okay, Peebles here is just messing with me that's all." Finn said looking at the recovering Bonnibel as she fixed her mess up Bubblegum hair that hang in front of her face.
"I see, so what can you say about my villa?"
"It's pretty great, you know you give me an idea about this, maybe I will build my own by the sea north of the Candy Kingdom. I simply love the scenery of the sea." Bonnibel said.
"I don't!" Finn suddenly interjected, crossing his arms. The two women laughed, they both knew that Finn is really scared of the ocean.
"Come on Finn, you a man now, perhaps its time to face and conquer your fears." Flame Princess said crossing her legs.
"Nah uh!" he replied in defiance.
"Finn..." Bonnibel began
"NO!" he looked away. He could be stubborn if he had to, and she knew it.
Bonnibel place a hand on his shoulder "Hey, I'm just joking Finn..." she said in a soft tone.
"Really?" he said looking at her.
"Yeah, I am. But the villa by the sea sounds nice. Well let's see what we can do." She shrugged.
"not by the sea Peebles. Please!" he said.
"Okay not by the sea..." she said, Flame Princess laugh again.
They continue feasting on their tea and snacks while conversing on random things. Duties, activities, and of course being heroes, speaking of which Flame Princess suddenly opened up the topics of Iron Princess.
"Is that a new suit outside?" the fire elemental asked.
Bonnibel nodded eagerly "yeah it is. It is called the 'Hot Rod'."
"Nice, what does it do?"
"It absorbs powers from other beings."
"Like?"
"You"
Flame Princess was shocked "What?"
"Look beings that have elemental powers. It is powered by a special crystal known as the Elixir. The crystal has the ability to absorb extreme powers and store them like a container."
"Ah I see" Flame Princess said, but the idea of the suit being used against her is more likely. She was thinking about a hypothetical scenario that Bonnibel will betray her and used the suit to suck the life out her.
"Don't worry Flame Princess the suit is encrypted securely, only us can activate it."
"Did you test the suit?"
"Not yet, maybe you can help us"
At this Flame Princess glared "Suck the powers out of me? No thanks"
"No try shooting fire balls at it. I will analyse the power if the Elixir works or not."
Flame Princess tapped her chin in thought. Then she decided "Okay, if it that's what you want."
"Great, let's get started." Bonnibel stood up, Finn followed close behind obviously keeping an eye on Bonnibel and her experiment.
Minutes later, Bonnibel is suited up with Mk IX. In front of her is Flame Princess her hands were carrying fire balls. Finn is monitoring the suit's power output on a holo computer.
"Okay, ready when you are" Finn began.
"Here we go" Flame Princess said as she threw her fire balls at Bonnibel.
The Candy Princess held out his hand, and the fire balls hit the palm of her hand. The fire simply shrunk and disappeared in her hand. Flame Princess stood staring at the sight with wide eyes. Finn immediately tend to the holo computer and analyze the core output. His widen at the result.
"Uh, Peebles look at this. The core output increase immediately by 50%"
"That strong?" Bonnibel said, now she is thinking how much power Flame Princess really has. Maybe it explains the unstable elemental matrix she had. Maybe the suit can fix that, maybe just maybe.
However she shook the idea of her mind, her thought went back to Finn's words about what if Flame Princess wore the suit. Will it hurt her? It is a risk she can't take. She can't hurt a friend.
"Let's try again." she said.
The fire elemental shot a huge fire ball this time, following a barrage of smaller ones. Every single one of the got Bonnibel head on and every one of the fire balls shrunk and disappeared. Finn once again gasped at the sight he was seeing.
"Power output increase by one thousand percent!" he said.
Whoa that's math, maybe your power if more are absorbed will be like the sun!" Flame Princess said as she stared at the screen indeed truly admitting that Bonnibel made a very powerful suit.
Bonnibel just looked at the screen, "I did" she said. "This is too dangerous to fall to the wrong hands." Finn was right, she made suits, and she made enemies.
"I think this is enough, the suit has already too much power output." Bonnibel said.
"Agreed" Finn and Flam Princess said at the same time.
"But, I already in the mood of training." Flame Princess suddenly said.
"We can still train if you want." Bonnibel said
"Not while you're in there." The fire elemental shot her a look.
"okay okay, but i won't dance around wearing this." She motioned her casual jeans and shirt.
"I got just the right outfit." Flame Princess said with a devious smirk on her face, a message that Bonnibel picked up quickly. "Follow me" she motioned Bonnibel towards back the house.
"Wait right here Finn."
"okay..." the human sat down beside the suit. He looked up and tapped the suit's right side. "You're pretty dangerous you know that?"
"It never took a long moment, for the two women stepped out of the house. Wearing cloths that made Finn lose his jaw to the ground. his eyes were wide in shock and his nose felt like bleeding.
Flame Princess and Bonnibel wore exercise outfits; both sporting a sports bra, and wears tight bicycle shorts. Their curves were visibly seen especially Bonnibel who almost sports a near hour glass shaped body. Not to mention their abdomen were exposed.
"Uhhh..." he drooled out.
The women winked at him, "Watch handsome, you will going to enjoy this" Bonnibel began.
"Yeah, have fun watching" Flame Princess threw him a seductive glance that made his face flushed with red.
The two women stared down to each other, ready for action, waiting for one another to throw the first punch. Finn just sat on the soft grass with wide eyes, drooling lips and flushed facial expression.
"So, who's going first?" Bonnibel said.
"I am" Flame Princess replied, her arms at the ready.
"Let's go then" the candy princess motioned fingers to come at her.
In the few moments, sweet and spicy flavours will collide.
