"But Marshall!" Gumball pleaded.
"I said no Gumball!" The vampire king started floating down the hallway, with his electric guitar axe dragging along the floor.
"You have to! It is your obligation as king of the vampires to take care of your people!" The pink prince had to jog to keep up with him.
"They aren't my people Gumwad! Get that through your thick skull!" You could practically feel the hatred coming off the vampire.
Gumball started to get winded, "At least... tell me.. why"
"You wanna know why? Because it's going to take at least twenty-five years to fully control her hunger, another twenty years to learn all her powers and add another fifty if you want her to master them!"
Gumball was still trying to catch his breath, "You are still King and it is still your responsibility" The pink prince looked up at him, "And if you help I will get Cake a date with Lord Monochromicorn so you and Fionna can be left alone for a while."
Marshall's eyes widen slightly, but his shock faded into a smirk, "You would do that for me?"
Gumball tried hard not to glare at him, "Yes and I will vouch for you if need be..."
The vampire king smiled evilly "You know that means Fi and I will be completely alone right? No one to stop us from going from tier one to nine in less than a heartbeat."
Gumball took in a deep breath, and gritted his teeth. "You must be one lucky person…"
"I might be able to convince her to go to tier fifteen since we have the alone tim-"
"What you do in your spare time is no concern of mine!" Gumball snapped. "but what is my business is whether or not you help Caralie!" he let the last of his frustrations go when Marshal gave him a surprised look.
Marshall was still slightly shocked by the pink prince's outburst, but he just simple smiled. That's what he wanted, "Ok I'll help your girlfriend, but you realize I'm going to need more than just one date alone with Fionna"
"She's not my girlfriend, and fine" He huffed. "and I will vouch for you for as long as Caralie need training."
Marshall smiled, and started floating back to the dome, "Ok, I'm going to need lots of blood and even more rope and restraints."
Gumball made a mental note as he followed the vampire king back to the dorm. Caralie was laying on the ground. Most of the pink blood was gone, all except a small ring around the vampire's mouth where her tongue could not reach. She seemed to be looking up at the roof.
"Now that she's eaten I'm sure you can come in too." Marshal smiled as they got to door. "You know if you wanna risk it." he added purposely trying to scare off the candy prince.
"No I am fine." Gumball took a slightly nervous breath in. "I need to study how you train her so I can do it in the future." He unlocked the door.
"It's your grave man" Marshal said, pushing the door opened. "Right now we just need to see if she's still in what I like to call frenzy mode." Marshal let Gumball take the first few steps ahead of him, "And when I say we I mean you" The Vampire King pushed Gumball. The Pink Prince went stumbling across the room. He stopped just a few feet from the white haired vampire. She didn't move or stir at all.
Gumball jerked his head so he was glaring at the raven haired twit across the room. Marshall gave the hand signal for good luck, "You're doing great!" he whispered yelled. "If she attacks you I'll try to save you."
Gumball scowled at him, I swear to Glob if he's going to be the end of me… Caralie twitched slightly, or she might be he mentally added. She must have fallen asleep, but her eyes were opening now.
"Gumball?" She said tiredly, rubbing her eyes. Caralie made a grossed out face. "Ew what's all over my hands?" She sat up.
"How interesting" Marshall floated over, almost on top of her. "You should have ripped out his throat by now. What gives?"
"What?!" Carlie shrieked. She jerked up slamming her head against Marshall's. "Ow!" they both whined.
Caralie started rubbing her forehead as she looked up at Gumball, "Do you mind sharing what the nightosphere is going on here?" Aggravation coated her voice.
"Well…" Gumball started but trailed.
"Well what?" Caralie's purple eyes were shooting him a glare.
"You're a vampire now, girl." Marshal sang as he strummed a few notes.
"What?" Caralie stood up. "That can't be true" Dizziness clouded her vision and she started to sway. Gumball grabbed her arm to steady her. Those purple eyes looked at him, and Gumball felt a rock land in his stomach.
"Something happened…" He mumbled. The look on her face almost killed him, but she had to know. "The Ice Queen flew into the lab and threw the candy vampire formula at you," a small blush crossed his face, "Because she thought we were together…" the same color rose on her cheek. "Than the formula coated itself around you and you were turned into a candy vampire… You were on a rampage for three days before we caught you…"
Caralie looked like she was in a daze, like the information didn't quite make it all the way to her brain. Gumball watched as the realization hit her eyes.
"Oh glob…" Her pale hand gripped his arm. "d-did I?" Fear filled her eyes. "Did I kill anyone?"
Gumball licked his lips. Just say it fast, like ripping off a band-aid. "Three injured and one killed" The words flew off his tongue.
Caralie's eyes turned a glowing hot pink as a sob escaped her mouth. "Oh Glob I'm going to be sick" She buried her face into his chest.
"Well don't get sick on me!" Gumball yelled trying to break her inhuman like grip on his arm. Caralie let out another cry, and he tensed up. The pink prince immediately regretted raising his voice at her.
"If she's going to be sick we'll need more blood to replace what she threw up." Marshal noted. The vampire king looked at Caralie, who was still crying on the tensed up prince. He slightly mouthed the words, "Comfort her you idiot!"
Gumball just shrugged. He'd never dealt with a crying girl before. Fionna never cried and was as tough as nails. This was completely new to him.
Marshall mimicked a hugging motion, and gumball copied him. He gently put his arms around her. Marshall gave him a thumbs up, than did a small motion that looked like he was rubbing someone's back. Gumball repeated the movement. Gumball smiled and watched as Marshall mouthed what looked like comforting words.
"It's okay Caralie…" Gumball mumbled. "Everything will be okay. We just have to work on it."
Marshall's smile turned into a smirk, as he pretended to grab the butt of his invisible lady (most likely Fionna) and forced his tongue down the make believe mouth. Gumball glared at the vampire king and shot him a bird. That was enough to make Marshall laugh out loud. "Okay love birds, time to break up the sob fest." He pulled Caralie away from the candy prince. "You are a vampire now. Get over it. You can't go back so you just have to move forward. Now dry your eyes we have some training to do before your next frenzy attack hits."
Caralie only nodded her head and wiped the pink tears from her eyes. "J-just tell me what to do." The white hair vampire sniffled "The sooner I can control this the better…" she mumbled.
"Good" An evil smirk slipped across the vampire king's face. "Now get on top of Gumball."
