Just wanted to let you know, for originality reasons, the dragon has been changed to a beast instead with large fangs, horns and wings so there are going to be minor changes in the text in the previous chapter. Just to let you know so you are not confused when reading this chapter.
Now on with the story!
"Three of a kind!" Jake said while placing his cards upright on the table.
"Four of a kind!" Finn said.
"Full house!" Wallow said.
"Ugh, I fold." Chris said.
Wallow's gauntlet started beeping. He tapped his gauntlet and a holographic projection of Beth came up.
"Guys! Guys! May have found out who is going to off Wallow!"
"Is it the beast?" Finn said.
"Well… it wasn't at first, but Danny kind of made it go on a sneezing rampage."
"It was an accident!" Danny shouted.
"Anyway, we are tailing the beast to see where it goes. We'll be back soon so we can work out how to deal with this mess. Speaking of mess, gotta make sure I change my clothes. I reek of ketchup."
"No worries, I can get that out." Finn said. "I know a special cleaning technique for condiment stains!"
"Aww, thanks Finn— Oh snap, I gotta go, bye!"
Chris developed a furious look on his face. He pounded the table and post of the cards fell through the cracks of the floor.
"Aw man!" Jake said. "There goes our playing cards."
"No sweat Jake." Finn said. "I got a spare deck upstairs. B to the R to the B fellas!"
Finn went upstairs into the bed room.
"I'm gonna… help him look for them…" Chris said.
"Kay." Wallow said.
"I'm going to make some more waffles." Jake said.
"Dude, you've been munching on those nonstop. Don't you think you've had enough?"
"I can stop eating anytime I want. I just don't want to."
"Seriously, you gotta stop eating those. I'm cutting you off."
Wallow reached out to take the frozen ice cream waffles from Jake, but Jake turned around and hissed at Wallow menacingly. Wallow quickly retracted his hand and backed away slowly. In the bed room, Finn was looking under his bed. Still searching for the deck of cards. He stood up.
"Now where did I leave those cards?" Finn asked.
Chris came from behind and pushed Finn to the ground.
"You…" Chris said in anger. "You stay away from Beth! She is meant to be with me! Not you!"
"Chris!" Finn said. "What are you doing?!"
"'What am I doing'?!" Chris said.
The tension in Chris's face lowered a bit.
"What am I doing…?" Chris said.
Chris sat on the bad with a disappointed look on his face.
"I'm sorry about that Finn… I don't know what got over me."
"It's cool." Finn said.
Finn got up from the floor and sat next to Chris on the bed.
"Do you… like Beth?"
"Well… yeah… a little." Chris said.
"Oh man, I'm sorry bro." Finn said. "I never wanted her to favor me over you. I was just trying to be nice ya know?"
"Yeah, don't worry about it. I shouldn't have let that pigeon dream freak me out." Chris said.
"Pigeon dream?" Finn asked. "What does that have to— Oh… long blonde hair…"
"Yeah…" Chris said with a sigh.
Finn thought for a moment.
"Hey, I have an idea."
"What Finn?" Chris asked.
"We are going to change the pigeon dream!" Finn said enthusiastically.
"How do you suppose we do that?" Chris asked.
"Follow me!" Finn said.
They went downstairs. Wallow was at the kitchen table playing a hand held video game while Jake continued to stuff his face with ice cream waffles. He was slightly bigger than Wallow. Finn didn't notice and went into another room. When he came back in, he came out holding a long blonde wig. Finn placed the wig on Chris's head and positioned it to look like he had real hair.
"What's this wig for?" Chris asked.
"Beth didn't see who had blonde hair! So if we both have long blonde hair, it could be either one of us, but if I remain behind the scenes the chances of kissing you will increase."
"Ahh… Nice plan Finn!" Chris said.
"I would seal the deal and shave my head, but my friend Bimo got very upset the last time I cut my hair."
"Oh, alright." Chris said.
"Now, that we got our wigs on. We just have to wait for the future."
"What are you guys doing?" Wallow asked.
"Trying to change the future so that Chris can kiss Beth instead of me."
"Oh really?" Wallow asked. "One sec!"
Wallow ran out the door. He went into the space whale, and entered what was left of his room.
"Glad my closet is still intact!" Wallow said.
He rustled around the closet, took out a tux and put it on. He then went back into the tree house.
"You wouldn't happen to have a viola around here would you?" Wallow asked.
"Hang on a sec." Jake said followed by a burp.
Jake stretched his arm up stairs into the bed room. When he retracted his arm, his hand was holding a viola and handed it to Wallow.
"Gonna play some romantic music to lighten the mood!"
"I guess that's alright." Chris said.
"Ah… a fellow player." Jake said. "Do me proud Wallow!"
"I shall!" Wallow said.
Suddenly, the front door opened. Finn and Chris turned their attention to it. Beth rushed inside. She was wearing Princess Bubblegum's dress.
"She's here! Start playing!" Jake shouted.
Wallow quickly began to play a romantic tune
"Guys!" Beth said in distress. "You gotta come with me! The beast is—"
Beth took a step forward and slipped on an ice cream waffle.
"Woooaaaaoooohh!" Beth said keeping her lips forward.
Realizing that she was coming towards Finn, He attempted to escape into the other room, but he bumped into the wall and started to stagger around the room trying to keep his balance.
"My waffle!" Jake said.
As Wallow witnessed what was the start of something catastrophic, he began to play a fast pace intense tune. Chris rushed to try to prevent them from falling over, but he tripped over his own hair. He then tripped over Jake's arm that was trying to reach for the waffle and did a summersault in the air. Chris managed to press his feet on the roof of the room and pushed away from it. He landed on Finn and they both crashed to the ground. Finn waved his arms around to try to grab something to keep his balance, but he ended up grabbing Beth's leg, causing her to trip and fall to the floor. Finn and Chris got up from the floor.
"You okay?" Chris asked.
"Yeah I'm good." Finn said, while rubbing his back.
"Beth! You okay?" Chris asked.
"Beth got up and as she was she was seen kissing something in a blonde wig. When she pulled the thing away from her, it was what looked like a hand held game system, who was green and had arms and legs.
"Bimo?!" Finn said.
"Oh! I there Finn!" Bimo said. "You guys have terrible balance by the way."
"Why are you wearing a blonde wig?" Finn asked.
"Well, everyone else had long blonde hair, so I just wanted to fit in!"
"So you're the one that I kissed in my Pigeon Dream!" Beth said.
"A what?" Bimo asked.
Suddenly, laughter was heard. Everyone turned their attention to the window. A large green pigeon with a long feather on its head.
"You actually thought you could change your future? HA!" The pigeon said. "You gotta learn to not mess with forces that are not meant to be messed with, punks!"
The pigeon flew away, continuing to laugh its head off.
"Dude," Wallow said. "The Chrono Pigeon is a jerk."
"Oh, yeah, big time." Jake said.
Suddenly, Danny dashed through the front door. He was wearing his role playing outfit
"Guys!" Danny said. "Woah, nice hair Chris."
"Thanks." Chris said. "Why are you wearing your costume?"
"I wore this to… uhh… increase my speed."
"Dude." Beth said.
"Okay! I was role playing, but there was a beast terrorizing the kingdom, man! Perfect role playing experience! Why are you wearing a dress?"
"I stopped at the Candy Kingdom to warn them of the possible attack from the beast, but then Princess Bubblegum focussed on the fact that my clothes were dirty so she gave me this, but before I could warn them, it was too late!"
"That beast is under control." Danny said. "It was somewhat my fault, but we have to stop it!"
"Wait…" Wallow said. "Long hair, dress, dorky suit, big Jake, tux?! Guys! It's all coming true! I'm going to die!"
"Then we don't have long" Finn said while putting on his hat. "We gotta go out and stop the beast's! Let's move people!"
Everyone nodded in agreement and followed Finn outside to put a stop to the beasts flame.
