Disclaimer: I don't own anything. This is just a story for fun.

Finn and Jake were in the Time Room with Prismo explaining their current situation and asking the Wish Master for advice. Prismo put to his chin in thought.

"This is quit a problem. You have two people who need their sanity restored, but one of them will die a little after, being returned to normal."

"Yeah that crown is a real thorn in everyone's side. Making people live along time and driving them crazy." Said Finn.

"The crown is crazy, but it due to the first person who wore it." Said Prismo.

"What you talking about?" Asked Jake.

"Well the crown has a history, but I'll give you the short version. A really long time ago there was an ice elemental named Urgence Evergreen, who constructed a crown that had the ability to grant the heart's desire of the first person to wear it. Evergreen planed to use the crown to wish away a comet that was fixing to strike his planet, but unfortunately the first person to wear the crown was Evergreen's apprentice Gunther. Gunther's wish to be like his teacher Evergreen and the crown granted his wish and binder his DNA and a little bit of Gunter's essence with itself. The comet then struck the planet killing both Evergreen and Gunther. Since that day the next person to put that crown on would receive great power, but they would lose themselves to the essence of Gunther and become prisoners in a frozen prison of madness within their own minds." Explained Prismo.

"That's some heavy stuff man. It also explains why Ice King says Gunther a lot." Said Jake.

"So how do we fix this?" Asked Finn.

"Well you would need to go inside Ice King's mind and navigator your way through it, until you find the essence of Gunther and defeat it in some way. However, Gunther is hiding himself in a maze of madness and it can't be navigated with a normal mind. You need someone who has a little madness of their own to go through it." Said Prismo.

"Someone, who is already mad?" Thought Finn, until his mind drifted towards Betty and he knew what needed to be done. The boy looked at the Wish Master and thanked him. "Thanks Prismo, I know what we need to do."

"Your welcome guys. I'm going to talk to Death about letting Simon live after you return him to normal." Said Prismo.

"Thanks man." Said Jake as he pulled out the card and he and his brother exited the Time Room.

The heroes now had a plan to help Simon, but it was certainly going to be dangerous.

To be continued.
