Chapter 2
I bit back the insistent question at the back of mind, who's Marshall Lee? I hated curiosity. It was such a strange thing. Chunk yawned softly, his ease wasn't exactly relaxing.
"No, I haven't," Prince Gumball answered Fionna. She sighed, brushing her long bangs back. I felt like sitting down, seeing as this conversation was going no where.
"Huh, that's weird… I thought you two talked more than that," Fionna said tapping her chin lightly with her forefinger.
"That must be your imagination, honey," Cake pointed out. I remained silent as Fionna looked at the cat angrily.
"No, it isn't!" she denied.
"The Vampire King and I don't exactly get along…" Prince Gumball informed Fionna, shrugging slightly. She sighed in disbelief.
"That can't be! I told you two to get along better!" Fionna complained lightly.
"Secrets are no fun~ Secrets are for everyone~" I sang lightly, if only to throw off the two's conversation that was growing in intensity. It seemed to have an unintended effect.
"WHAT SECRETS!" Fionna yelled at Prince Gumball. His eyes widened in surprise.
"Erm… Fionna, that was a nursery song I learned…" I told her. She let out a sigh of relief.
"And there I thought Prince Gumball was keeping things from me," Fionna said. Cake gave her a bewildered look.
"Girl, what has got you so on-edge?" she asked. Fionna shook her head.
"It's nothing," she answered.
"Doesn't seem like it," Chunk pointed out, his black tail waving back and forth across the grass. The tail flicked the tendrils back and forth with ease, almost seeming like the wind. I was beginning to feel the stress flowing off of everyone.
"This doesn't feel healthy!" I cried, jumping on Chunk's back. He leapt up, frightened by the sudden weight on his back. He dashed off toward the Burning Lands.
"HEY! Don't go that way! Everything's on fire there!" Fionna yelled after them. Chunk and I didn't really listen to her though. Chunk seemed fearless of the flames at first, but then he was dashing through it all to escape the fiery beasts.
"Aieeee!" I cried as a Fire Wolf jumped at us. I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to block out all of the heat and monsters. The heat suddenly died down in immense amounts. I opened my eyes as Chunk collapsed. I rolled off his back panting. My heart was beating at a billion miles per second. I laid on the cool rock with my eyes closed, waiting for the calm to reach me.
"Don't ever scare me like that again," Chunk hissed angrily.
"I was as scared as you were!" I snapped in reply. Then I laid back down, turning my face to the starry sky. It was my third day away from the Ice Kingdom, and I was loving it. I never saw a wink of the creepy, old Ice Queen and her mysterious powers. I wasn't really looking at the sky. Mostly I was waiting for myself to calm down. (A/N: As my friend, Marissa, would say, "Calm Down, It's not that serious.") I let out a small sigh as my heart beat returned to its normal pace. Chunk sounded like he was asleep, and I wouldn't mind sleeping here. I just hoped there wouldn't be any monsters here.
"Well, hello there," someone said.
"AHHHHHHH!" I screamed, sitting up as fast as I could. I banged my head into the very someone afore mentioned.
"Ow! What was that for?" that someone asked. I opened my eyes, ducking my head into my knees. My head was pounding with pain now…
"You scared me!" I cried into my knees, fighting back the pained tears that bit at my eyes.
"Well, I didn't think you'd scare that easily," this someone, who seemed to be male, commented in his defense.
"If it makes you feel better, my head hurts really bad right now…" I told him.
"Well it should. You just head butted the Vampire King," he replied. I looked up, to see a gray skinned guy, floating on air with his arms crossed. He didn't have a red mark on his forehead, which wasn't surprising because he was a vampire.
"Wait! Don't vampires drink people's blood!" I cried, holding my arms up defensively, almost trying to hide myself from him.
"No, just the color red," he replied without flinching. I slowly lowered my eyes.
"Interesting…" I commented, still eyeing him suspiciously. He laughed lightly at my behavior, making me feel embarrassed. I blushed and looked away from him.
"What! Where I'm from, Vampires are considered evil tricksters! You never heard of any different!" I told him unhappily. I glared at Chunk when I realized he didn't budge when I'd screamed.
"Could that possibly be the… Ice Kingdom?" he asked, pretending to lean on his elbows as he floated above me.
"Possibly," I answered, letting my eyes wander to the sky.
"So then, what brings you here?" he inquired.
"Prince Gumball and Fionna became overwhelmingly awkward," I told him, actually giving the truth since that was automatic.
"OH! That reminds me! Is your name Martin… Marlin… Marty… what was it again? OH! Marshall Lee?" I questioned.
"Yeah, what of it?" he replied.
"Apparently Fionna was looking for you, which made Prince Gumball unhappy and then caused the situation to be uncomfortable for me," I informed him. I finally returned to looking at him. He seemed to be thinking now. I yawned softly.
"Well, she knows where to find me," he said suddenly. I jumped.
"I'm tired," I yawned again. He sighed.
"Hey! You can't sleep until you tell me what your name is! You know mine!" he cried, trying to get me to tell him, but I fell asleep.
