Chapter 3: Royal Decisions

Walking up to the throne room of the recently discovered kingdom was Braco. He had received a letter from an envoy of the Candy Kingdom saying that it was to be delivered to his King. While he didn't want to listen to someone who wasn't a part of their kingdom, he knew that this letter was important.

"My King, I have a letter for you from the Candy Kingdom." He handed the letter to his King who began to read it with an ever growing facial expression of anger. After he was done reading it he crumbled it up and threw it away. "What did it say," he asked worriedly.

"It said that I am to come to one of their little Grand Meetings of OOO Royalty. It is no surprise that in their arrogance they would expect me to be the one to come to them." He smirked at the fact that they had tried to make it seem like they were the ones in control of the situation. He would show them that he was not afraid of them and that his kingdom and its people were more than capable of defending themselves.

"Braco, I want you to write a letter to the Candy Kingdom telling them that if they want to meet with me, then they will have to be the ones to make the effort. Make it clear that we will not be the ones to put our heads down. After all, we never wanted anything to do with them in the first place," he said calmly

"Gladly, Great King."

Back in OOO

The reply she had received was outrages cried Bubblegum. Not only did it say that he would not come and attend the meeting, but it also said that if they wanted anything from him then they would have to be the ones to make the journey to his kingdom. To add insult to injury, it also stated that he didn't care what powers OOO's kingdom possessed and that his kingdom was more than capable of defending itself from whatever might be thrown at it. She had wanted to treat this as an act of war, but knew that no one would agree with her on it. With no other choice option she called up the other royal figures to explain to them this new development that had occurred.

All of them had felt that their pride had been attacked from what they just heard. "We shouldn't listen to this would be King," shouted Lumpy Space King and Queen. "He's just trying to intimidate us," said Marceline. "I doubt he could really do anything to any of us," said Flame Princess. "True or not, we shouldn't let our egos make the decision for us, besides what will we do if Finn's there," whined Raggedy Princess.

All the other royalties didn't want to listen to what she said considering she was the least self-respecting one among them. Yet once the topic of Finn possibly being there was brought up again they all decided that the best thing to do was to go to this new kingdom and see for themselves. Swallowing their damaged pride, they all wrote a letter saying they will meet him in 3 days after they made sure their kingdoms would do all right without them for a little while.

Princess Bubblegum POV

"I must find out if this kingdom has made some unknown advancement in the field of science. This could be what he was referencing to when he wrote that his kingdom was more than capable of defending itself," she said in anticipation. "If they have then I just need to obtain their research for my own. I can only imagine what wonders I could discover from this new place."

Still there is the issue of what it will mean if Finn is there, she thought. She thought that this King that she had learned about could have manipulated Finn into joining him when he was in a vulnerable state of mind from his recent break up. He probably told Finn that there where new love interests in his kingdom and that if Finn went with him he would assure him that he would find a new girl. She also thought about what it was like when news had spread that he had vanished. When news had spread that Finn was gone it had horrendous effects on OOO. Crime in OOO had hit an all-time new level of disaster when the criminals had heard that Finn was no longer around to stop them. It was still this way even though a new police force was made and stricter laws were enacted to combat this ever growing surge in crime. Without OOO's Hero to help keep peace, stability in OOO had hit an all-time low.

"If he is there," she said, "Then I must convince him to forget about this silly heartbreak so that he will return to OOO in order to help return it to its former state of prosperity."

Flame Princess POV

While sitting in her personal chambers preparing for another day of listening to her people's complaints, Flame Princesses mind wondered to what it will be like if she sees Finn again. "He's most likely become the champion of this place and forgotten all about us… and all about me,"she said sadly. "I wouldn't be surprised if he even found himself someone new to love." The last part made her feel a new emotion that she had never experienced before, jealousy. "All I wanted for him was to mature and see the mistakes he had made. He needed to know the things he had done that caused or relationship to end the way it had. After that I wouldn't have minded getting back together with him. Yet it seems the pain was too much for him and instead of facing his problems, he ran from them," she said angrily. "If he is there then I will teach him that he can't run away from his past like that."

Marceline's POV

The thought of the weenie being there didn't really surprise her all that much. In truth it would make sense that that was where he had ended up. Relationships weren't easy as she could remember with Ash. Breakups were even worse if one side still liked the other person. "Eh the weenie just needed some time to pull himself together. Once he sees us again I'm sure he'll come around and want to return to OOO with us." Besides it's been no fun for a lot of people after he decided to hit the road, she thought. Jake had been from what she heard, extremely heartbroken that his lil bro had left him. Without his adventuring buddy he had become extremely bored and lonely. The only good thing for him was that he had Lady and his kids to keep him company and help ease his pain.

I then remembered that Simon wasn't any better off either after I went and paid him a surprise visit. When I went to see him, I had found him sulking in the corner crying over Finn having left. When I asked him why he wasn't happy that Finn was no longer there to interfere in his Princess kidnapping bis, he told me that it just wasn't the same without Finn being there to try and stop him. After that I went and talked to a bunch of other people around OOO to see what they thought. Almost all of them said they missed their hero and wanted him back badly.

"I guess I didn't help the situation much either when it came to how Finn felt," she said sadly. After his break with FP he had tried to occupy his free time by doing jam sessions with me. After a while, it had gotten to the point that it had become too much for me. I had to break off the contact by telling him that if he was doing this to try to get close to me that it wasn't going to happen since I wasn't into him. I still remembered the hurt look he had on his face when I said that, he had looked like he had lost his last chance at happiness.

"Well hopefully Finns wounds have healed and he has learned that love isn't as simple as people make it out to be."

The King's POV

I had received the letter stating that the meeting was to happen in 3 days. To me it meant a chance to show them that we don't intend to get involved in OOO's political world. This kingdom was made to be an example of how we don't need them to survive and thrive.

"I'll show them that they can't just come in here and expect me to kneel. I have ways to deal with each individual kingdom and I intend to give them a little demonstration should the outcome arise. For their sake, they better not anger me. For they have no idea who it is they're dealing with."

Hello once again my viewers. Another update here my friends. Oh could any of you give me a few ideas on what this kingdom should be named. every kingdom needs a name after all haha. well hopefully I don't run out of ideas for this story or just start to suck at writing, because that wouldn't be good for you guys who enjoy this story. Hopefully this was to ur liking.
