So guys i think you will like this, i was on a roll for some parts and not exactly like my original plan but the story feels right, anyway enjoy follow and reveiw plz.
"This is rather unconventional, but due to the low number of contestants, Finn the human, Princess Bubblegum and Lumpy space princess will have to stands down from participating in this even, as each king wishes to fight each other their spectacle will need to take president, I'm sure you all understand, their heirs will also face off to mirror their fight" Peppermint clears his thought and looks away from the booing crowd.
"That's bunk, why cant we participate" Finn yells at Peppermint, he moves to jump onto the stage.
"Please Finn you have to understand, this isn't a game its a royal event, if they ask us to stand down then that is their right" princess Bubblegum tried to console Finn walking into the stands.
"If the boy wishes to participate he can be involved with the fight between my daughter and the Cloud prince" the flame king smiles and stands next to the cloud king, the Cloud prince smiles and leans his back against the wall.
"What I cant fight Flame princess" shocked Finn shouts, "don't even suggest that" angrily Finn begins to climb into the stands.
Cloud prince moves to the centre of the hall "if everyone is alright with it, how about just me and you fight, remove the obstacle and I'm sure you would be willing to fight me right" both kings look at each other.
"Well that defeats the purpose" Cloud king laughs "son I understand you might have a rivalry with this young man but isn't it rude to just remove Flame princess from the equation".
"I don't mind, I'm happy for Finn to fight instead, he would enjoy it more" she smiles at him and waves "besides I'm sure Cloud prince had some problem admitting but he couldn't fight a girl" he frowns and nods.
"Well if you agree then I'm sure everyone will enjoy your fight" the cloud king begrudgingly accepts.
"Now that is settled, please explain the rules Peppermint" the flame king jumps forward with a smile on his face.
"Very well, it will be a fight till the finish, I will determine if someone cannot continue, if you pass out or are severely harmed you will lose, also if you leave your area in the hall you will lose, weapons are aloud but you will not be aloud to use magic or powers, such as fire, is all understood" they all nod then move to the squares, the Flame and Cloud king stand firmly locked on each others eyes, Finn and Cloud prince slowly enter the area.
"Ill take a sword since Finn is also using one, ill show you true skill with a blade boy" Finn smiles putting his pack on.
"Well I'm sure you will need it to beat me" both of them stare at each other, quietly awaiting the start as Peppermint arrangers staff.
"Yeah go Finn, you can do it kick his buns" Flame princess yells from the stands, Finn's face flushes bright red and he falls to his knees.
A large smile forms on the Cloud prince's face "what is the matter human, embarrassed?" He laughs pointing his blade towards Finn "please start Butler".
Finn stands gripping his sword "I was just shocked, I'm happy she's cheering for me" he smiles and waves his sword in the air, then moves back to his stance "guess I cant lose now, since she is watching me".
"Begin on the count of three, 1..2..3 fight" Peppermint barely finishes saying start and already both kings are centimetres from each other, both have entered into a battle of strength pushing against the other, neither king budges as the crowd roars, the excitement flows off as the kings stand not moving.
"Finn my boy, we shouldn't let them get ahead of us, since they are on equal terms I don't think it will be very entertaining either" Cloud prince chuckles moving to push back Finn.
"Yeah I guess you are right, for kings their fight isn't very spectacular, wait you don't think we are equal" Finn pushes against his own sword, instantly being knocked back again and falling onto his back, Finn slowly lifts him self on his sword.
"Certainly not, ruling out the fact that I am royalty I am also trained with a sword and am a year older than you, really you are out classed in every way" Cloud prince smiles and lunges at Finn again being deflected, they stand at either ends of the arena.
"Finn you can do it, don't listen to him" Finn smiles and looks up at her, Cloud prince charges in knocking the sword form his hand then moves slowly towards Finn pointing his sword forward.
"You really shouldn't get distracted, its bad manners" Cloud prince smiles.
Gabriella seeing Flame prince cheer of Finn gets excited moving to the top of the stands "Very good prince, your sword skills are beautiful" Cloud prince stops and looks up at her dumb struck.
"What.. I don't.. Words" as his guard lowers Finn charges in smacking the sword form his hands, Finn moves in and punches the prince in the face launching him back.
"I know how you feel, they are distracting right" Finn rubs his shoulder "words are hard" he smiles running in.
Both of them clash punching each other then running back in again, as the fight goes on the crowd slowly thins out, now no citizens remain, only people close to the fighters are in the stands, Finn and Cloud prince have slowed down only exchanging hits when they manage to lift their arms again, the kings still stand with locked arms without moving an inch, Peppermint yawns on his pedestal, then checks his watch tapping the microphone "the fights are now over as they have reached the point of 5 hours, they are ruled as a draw" Both kings step back from each other and smile.
"Looks like you haven't weakened since our last fight" Cloud king moves to his servant.
"Yes this fight wasn't disappointing, sorry if I got distracted by the boys fighting" he moves along also and shifts his armour "they don't even know its over".
Finn and Cloud prince are both leaning each other, pressing their foreheads against each other, sudden punches fly from each of them grazing their targets, Finn punches into Cloud princes gut, Cloud prince punches Finn in the face causing him to stumble, Jake jumps from the stands in between them.
"Finn stop fighting its over" Jake struggles to plead with his brother who is still advancing towards Cloud prince.
"Jake he cant hear you, he's running on auto pilot, you have to restrain them both while I sedate them" Pb rushes down to him as jake wraps both of them up, she pulls a needle from her bag "this should quiet them up" she sticks the needle into Finn and he immediately passes out, as she takes another needle and moves to Cp the Cloud king rushes over.
"Sorry we cant have that" he grabs his son and head butts him, knocking him unconscious "its not that I don't trust you, its just if anything bad did happen to him, the blame would fall onto your kingdom, you know how people panic and everything" he moves to the hall door with his son in hand "I will see everyone tomorrow".
As Cloud king leaves Flame king waves at his daughter and follows, Flame princess moves down to Finn "is he going to be alright" she looks at Pb shuffling closer to him "he looks cold".
"He will be alright" She looks at Fp and giggles "he will always be cold to you" Fp looks away hiding her frown "sorry I didn't mean it like that".
She looks back and smiles "its alright Finn said we would figure something out so ill trust him". she reaches out almost touching his face "one day ill be able to touch him without hurting him".
Gabriella moves in behind holding Finns pack "I believe you two will be able to hold each other if you don't give up, both of you are strong and don't let anything get in the way of your love, even royalty good night everyone ill be looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow" Gabriella moves to leave the room when Flame princess runs behind her.
"He's stupid but don't give up on him, always be there for him okay" Flame princess smiles holding Gabriella's hand, "the stupid ones are normally the best" Flame princess runs back to Finn "good night Finn, I will see you tomorrow".
The sun shines into Finn's bedroom revealing him hanging down from his bed with covers sprawled all around him, as the sun shines onto his face he awakens falling completely onto the floor, Finn rolls over placing his hands down to lift himself to his feet, Finn walks down stairs dazed tripping on each and every book on the floor "Jake what is with all the books and why do I feel like crud" Finn looks around with his brother not in sight, the kitchen is filled with books and similar papers "bro I think we need to personal talk about all these books, just admit it your a hoarder" Finn giggles when suddenly a yellow paw flies out from a pile of books and put a pot of coffee on.
"Yeah Finn I get it funny, I've been reading all these tea ceremony books for today so I don't mess it up with lady, tea is really romantic" Jake slides out from the books and pours a cup of coffee then drinks from the pot, "I've been messing things up all morning, like I put beemo in the fridge instead of his charger and I had to get new milk cause the power plug didn't keep it cold and it went off" Jake shakes his head placing the up of coffee into the pots holder "I don't want to mess this up".
Finn moves to his brother placing an arm around him "don't worry bout it, Lady has been with Peebles for ages, if you slip up she will fix you straight away" Jakes looks at him and feigns a smile.
"That's what I'm worried about, anyway man aren't you worried, what if you mess up with Flame princess" Jake throws the jug out the window and jumps down stairs with a stack of books.
"Oh I'm not going here today, I'm not interested I think ill rest, I really didn't plan on it also I'm pretty sure Fire elemental's don't drink tea" Finn runs down after him, "I'm going out now ill see you later tonight, if you don't burn down the hall that is" Finn laughs and runs out the door.
"Don't say that man, now I've got another thing to worry about" jake yells as books fall onto him again "darn it".
Finn walks through the Grass lands, not far from the candy kingdom "I'm sure Flame princess doesn't mind I'm not there, but is it really as romantic as jake think" Finn shakes his head and moves down to a small river "I'm just over thinking it", Finn removes his shirt and pants jumping into the river, Foot steps can be a heard suddenly from a close by bridge "must be people going to the ceremony" both Gabriella and Cloud prince exit the side of the bridge moving further into the grass lands, Finn floats along keeping in earshot of them "maybe the prince cant contain his love anymore" Finn laughs "that's something Jake would say" both Gabriella and Cloud prince stop near a tree, he falls to his knees.
"Why cant I keep it together, it is my fathers orders but the further we get with the plan the more I feel it is wrong, not only do the flame people trust us but so dose everybody else, I feel like its all wrong but who am I to argue" Gabriella sits next to him placing her hand on his shoulder, shocked Finn moves closer to the bank to listen.
"Prince I believe in you know what is the right thing to do so I will trust you, in everything" She smiles, this affection pushes the prince to tears, he sobs holding onto her shoulders.
"That is what destroy me most, that you always trust me even when I'm stupid and I'm a jerk, when I push you or hurt your feelings you never forsake me, it tears me up inside that I even slightly waver on this decision, if I was a stronger man I would have changed many things" with tears in his eyes he moves up looking into her eyes, "you are such a kind and good woman, yet you still trust me to make the right decision"
"You have always been the one I trust most prince, I know you are a good man I have seen first hand the good you can do when you want to, you are held back by your royalty but in the end you will do what is truly right" she smiles looking into his eyes "you talk so highly of me, but even that isn't enough to push me to follow what my heart believes is right, I am still help back by the shackles of class, what I love is in my grasp but I wont take it" She begins to move away from him but Cloud prince grasps her arm pulling her down under him.
"I am held by the same shackles, but right now the key has never been so close" he moves in closer to her stopping close to her lips "I think I finally want to grasp my freedom" both go quiet as the prince closes in on her lips, Embarrassed Finn slips back in the water startling a bird which flies off noisily, at the same time Finn submerges, both Gabriella and Cloud prince jump back searching for anyone who might have seen them.
"We should go back prince, it will start soon" he nods then fixes his jacket.
"I've made my decision, we must go along with my fathers plan to take the Flame kingdom, its is our duty" she frowns following him.
"Duty..., Yes prince".
