Hey everyone!
okay, this chapter will be short, but it has to end where it does, and well, because I'm evil. If you read these, then you will know that this chapter is one of those cliff hanger things.
but I love you.
A lot. :D R&R
Fionna woke late the next day, and dressed quickly, throwing on her usual attire, and grabbing a half loaf of bread from the kitchen, shoving it in her mouth. She ran out the door. She felt good today, a good day for kicking monster butt. She grinned and headed out to the edge of the dark forest, there was always trouble there. She took off at a sprint crossing the plains quickly, running through the thick winding trees.

Marshall Lee woke early the next day, the sun blazing high in the sky. He floated into his kitchen and began to drain apples in the bowl. Fionna was pretty much his, he just needed her to say so, and for a good measure, he should probably tell her how he felt. Well, at least that all of his intentions weren't all dishonorable. Blast it Cake.
He dressed and grabbed his umbrella and floated to her house, which had once been his. He floated in through the make shift hidden panel along the side, he doubted the girls ever knew it was there. The house was utterly silent, and he looked around. The air felt empty, at least it was hard to sense anyone there.
After a short search of the house, when he spent most of it in her room, taking a moment to inhale, letting his eyes glow and his teeth grow before he exhaled and put a reign over his own parade.
He turned around following the scent of Fionna. He may not have a plan yet, but he could think up something along the way.

Fionna ducked her head as a tree was flung at her. She knew the sun was still up, but the thick cover of the tree tops, and the overall creepiness of the forest made it seem like night fall. A humongous spider darted at her, getting too close for comfort. It's fangs nearly got her thigh, and she lunged backwards, narrowly avoiding falling in a large ditch filled with sick water.
She spun around, her bangs sticking to her sweaty dirty face, chest heaving for air. Three different spiders stared at her, their many eyes glowing from the dark. She grinned, she wouldn't ever lose to these freaks.

Marshall Lee followed the scent of Fionna to the edge of the wicked forest, though dangerous, he wasn't suprised Fionna would go there at all, but he was a little nervous, knowing Cake was still with Lord Monochromalicorn.
He was floating calmly, he himself not afraid the the forest, and he hid away his umberella, floating in the shadows. Fionna was close, he knew that much, he could smell her, and the distant sound of her sword crashing around.

Fionna ducked past one spider, sliding on the ground and ripping her sword up to slice it's underbelly, her right leg spinning out behind her to stop her from flinging backwards more. A sudden scuttling behind her made her fling around, but she wasn't fast enough.
The spider locked it pincers around her upper thing and lunged forward, fangs embedding in her. "AHHHH!" She screamed, leg buckling, sword falling. "NIH...NNNUAGHHH" she squirmed trying to get away, but it was no use. Another spider charged at her arm and she burrowed down, the poison making her head fuzzy, her hearing fading.
A soft thunk to her ears sounded and she saw Marshall Lee over her, having swung his axe bass like a bat, flinging the other spider to a tree. He spun around and ripped the spider off her numb leg, and she felt the protrusion in her empty. The other spider was flung off too. She blinked, and she felt her eye unwilling to open.
Someone was talking. One eye opened, and she saw Marshall. He was holding her in his arms. He looked sweaty and nervous.. His mouth was moving fast, his hair blowing back. Her head rolled to the side, and she saw the dark ground, hundreds of feet away. It was then she realized it was dark out.
The ground whipped past her vision, and she threw up, feeling as if from a third party her stomach churn, and a hot liquid leave her mouth. What had happened to her sword again? She closed her eyes.
