Chapter 4: Just Pure Business
After defeating Marceline, but hurled out of her forest by her own strength. Ice King, Finn and Jake were getting closer to Ice King's old kingdom. The three had rested for the night, and were about to be prepared for the next day. Yet Jack Frost was still watching them from within Ice King's former chambers.
"Ha yes, strike when the enemy is the most vulnerable" laughed Jack to which he then snapped his fingers summoning the Businessmen, "is the mech project at least finished?"
"Yes, we have finished it at a fast speed" said one of the Businessmen.
"Excellent, then you'll receive a promotion for the honor in defeating the Ice King, Finn and Jake, as for the rest of you get back to work!" ordered Jack.
"Will do boss" said the other Businessmen whom immediately went to work on the other projects.
Back where the Ice King, Finn and Jake were sleeping for the night. The Ice King was a bit impatient as he got up at 4 A.M., to try to get a good head start. He then started to try to wake both Finn and Jake but to no avail.
"You two, get up!" roared the Ice King.
"I'll get up when I feel like it" replied Jake in a tired out voice.
"Same here" added Finn.
"Don't you two know that you have a Royal Promise to fulfill?" cried the Ice King, "Mine Royal Promise!"
"Technically you forced it upon us man" said Jake still in the tired voice.
Suddenly both Finn and Jake started to wake up, as the ground began to shake.
"Ha, I knew my little speech would get you motivated" laughed the Ice King.
"We're having an earthquake is what's up!" cried Finn.
"Earthquake?" cried the Ice King.
But it was not Mother Earth being the problem. Rather, one of the Businessmen was controlling a large mechanical mech heading their way.
"What the heck is that?" cried Jake as he noticed the large mechanical mech.
"Who the heck is driving that thing?" added the Ice King.
"Wait a second, I think it might be one of those Businessmen that we literally put on ice" replied Finn.
"Maybe I can try to reason with him" said Jake as he then grew quite large to the size of the mechanical mech, "hey buddy, how you've been?"
"Got new job" laughed the Businessman in an oddly eerie manner.
"Doing what?" asked Jake.
"Taking you three out!" laughed the Businessman as he then pressed a button on the mech.
Suddenly a large boxing glove came right out and gave poor Jake a good punch right in the face sending him across a grassy field nearby.
"My guess is the Businessmen are working for this Jack Frost!" cried Finn as he dodged out of the way of the large foot that nearly squashed him like a bug.
"Don't worry, I still got a few tricks up my sleeve" said Jake as he recovered from the attack.
Jake then charged toward the large mechanical mech and then gave it several good punches. Yet the Businessman then pressed another button forming a shield around the mech itself.
"Ha, can't touch me!" laughed the Businessman.
"Ice King, we could use your help!" cried Finn.
"I'll try my best" replied the Ice King.
The Ice King attempted to do his best as he threw ice lightning bolts at the mechanical mech. But it was no use, the mechanical mech was coming closer toward them.
"Bah, this is no use!" cried the Ice King.
"You're right, but I think I got an idea, we just need the guy to stand still" laughed Jake.
"What sort of an idea do you have in mind?" asked Finn.
"I need you and the Ice King to distract the Businessman while I dig under ground and surprise him from under" laughed Jake.
"Sounds like a good plan" added Finn.
Suddenly both the Ice King and Finn went out in the open. They both created a distraction for the Businessman who was a bit confused on which one to target first.
"Hmm, confused, not sure which one to target" said the Businessman as he gazed at Finn, "Finn the Human looks weaker, but if I take out the Ice King, the Ice King would be a greater threat to me if I go after Finn."
As the Businessman was trying to make up his mind, Jake had managed to dig a hole right under where the mech was even getting within the shield itself. He then went around the back of the mech trying not to be detected by the Businessman.
"Say where did the dog go?" asked the Businessman as he suddenly realized what just happen.
But as the Businessman looked down and noticed a small hole was dug right underneath the mech itself, it was too late. Jake immediately grew quite large and broke the shield.
"Hey buddy, I'm right behind you, let me give you a helping hand!" laughed Jake as he formed a large fist.
"Looks like I might get demoted" sighed the Businessman.
Jake then gave the Businessman's mechanical mech a good punch. It was so strong that it managed to knock the head of the mech right off its body. Jake then continued with his rampage as he smashed the other parts of the mech into pieces.
"This is so much fun!" laughed Jake as he was smashing the pieces of the mech.
The Businessman had no time to worry, as he was heading back in shame toward his new boss.
"Bah, what an incompetent fool!" cried Jack as he slammed his fist on the throne's arm chair, "But that was at least a diversion, at least my super weapon should be completed by now."
"Sorry boss, a little more time for your super weather creation weapon" replied another Businessman who was working hard on it.
"Take all the time to finish up and get that contraption right" continued Jack, "you don't want to be demoted like your fellow compatriot will be, do you?"
"No boss, we work for you" replied the Businessman.
"Good, you'll continue to do your chores, maybe some of my giant snow monsters will slow the trio down" laughed Jack.
