Chapter One

Fionna was walking down the street when she heard a scream. She quickened her pace and ran to where the noise had come from. Fionna watched in horror as another dead body fell down and hit the ground. She walked to the body, knowing they couldn't be saved. "Dammit!" The blonde cursed under my breath. She got up, with the victim in her arms, and dashed to Gumball's. She shoved the door open and ran into his lab. "Gumball! The killer is at it again!" Fionna sat the victim onto the examination table.

"This is the third death this week!" He exclaimed. "What are we going to do?!" He examined the body, and turned back to her, "This is very suspicious! All the wounds are small dots. Like vampire bites, but there are no vampires here in Aaa." At hearing this, childhood memories floated through her head, one in particular.

The dark haired boy laughed as I pushed him higher. Every since I met him at the park, we met up here. My smile dropped when his fangs showed. "I know what you are." I stated and he gave me a questioning look. "You're one of them. The suckers of blood, or in short-a vampire."

"You're a smart girl. And if you're as smart as I think you are, you'll keep quiet about my identity. After all, I can make your life your own personal hell." He smiled, his eyes turning a darker red. "Trust me Fi, I know everything about you." He turned and ran off leaving me to stand terrified. He never came back after that.

"Marshy." Fionna muttered.

"What?" She had forgotten she was still in Gumball's lab.

"Sorry. I was just thinking is all." Fionna brushed it off. "Well I got to go! Cake will get worried if I don't get back soon." She ran off, offering Gumball a wave.

...

Cake started pacing the tree house. Suddenly Fionna came rushing though the door. "Shit Fionna, where have you been?!"

"I'm sorry, Cake. The killer is at it again. I had to take the body to Gumball." She said.

"Oh, Baby. I need you to be more careful! What if he targets you?!" It scared Cake to think of what could have happened.

"Alright. I'm sorry for worrying you, Cake." She pulled Fionna into a hug. "Can I go to bed now? I'm really tired and the stress from all the murders isn't helping." Cake nodded and she walked to her bed.

Fionna walked to her bed and fell asleep instantly.

"Marshall!" Fionna screamed into the darkness. Only silence replied. "Marshall!" Suddenly a dark figure appeared. "Marshall?" It walked into the light from the streetlight.

Fionna took a step back. It stepped closer and put it's mouth to her ear. "Oh Fionna. You honestly called me?" She nodded slowly, which made him smile. "Have you decided if you were ready or not yet?"

"What do you mean?" He slowly opened his mouth to show sharpened fangs. He came super close to her neck. "No! Stop! Marshall! I told you no! Marshall!" She screamed as an awful sensation began in her neck. He had bit Fionna.

"Fionna! Wake up!" She woke to a worried Cake shaking her.

"Gosh Cake. You scared me."

"That should be my line." She muttered. "I woke up to hear you screaming your head off. Just what in the hell was your nightmare about?!"

"Nothing." Fionna managed a smile. "Don't worry Cake. I'm fine. Anyway, I need to got to Gumball's." She got ready and left.

...

"So, What do you think it is?" Fionna asked Gumball, who was still examining the body she had picked up the other day.

"I honestly don't know, but this body is starting to decay." He held his nose. "It really stinks. How are you not effected?"

"I'm use to it." Fionna frowned. "But I wish I knew who was doing this."

"I know, but until we can figure out nobody is allowed outside alone."

"Isn't that a little unfair?"

"It's what's best for my people."

"I get that, but-" She didn't get to finish because a faint shrill interrupted. Fionna didn't wait around she was already tracking down where it came from. She quickly ran until she saw a woman's body on the ground. Fionna noticed that she, unlike the other poor victims, was breathing. Fionna was back at Gumball's in half the time. "She's breathing. He didn't kill her."

"Well, isn't that interesting?" Gumball muttered, "She looks like a visitor. Maybe a traveler?"

"Do you think that's why the murderer didn't kill her?" Gumball nodded. "I wonder why he is hurting the people of Aaa, but not visitors or travelers. It's strange."

"What's strange is that there is even a killer in Aaa." He paused, "Fionna, maybe you should go home and rest, you look tired."

"I'm fine." She thought for a moment, and suddenly blurted out her question, "Hey, do you think maybe a night patrol would help?"

"Night patrol?"

"Yeah, like a few people patrol the place at night." I explained.

"I know what a night patrol is. What I mean is, why do you want to start a night patrol?"

"I thought maybe it would help. Since the killer usually strikes at night, maybe night patrol could catch whoever it is."

"And who would this night patrol consist of?"

"I think I know somebody."

"Alright then give them a call. The first shift starts tonight." I left Gumball's.

...

Once Fionna got home she grabbed the phone. "What do you need that for, Sugar?"

"Oh. Thought I would call up an old friend." She nervously laughed.

"What for?"

Fionna suddenly found the floor interesting, and muttered, "You know. I may or may not have started a night patrol."

"What?! Why?!"

"Cake, how else will we catch the killer?"

"A watch out!" Cake shouted and Fionna laughed, "Well, it's safer than a night patrol!"

"Still, I think a night patrol would be better. Watch outs are the cops' thing."

"But, night patrolling is dangerous!"

"Cake, trust me."

"Fine!" Cake paused, "But if you go, I go!"

"Alright." Fionna quickly ran upstairs to the bedroom. She dialed the number and anxiously waited.

After a few rings, a husky voice answered, "Hello?"

"Hey. Sorry to call now, but I need a favor."

Sorry, I don't know if you want to call this a cliffy, but I wanted to update soon. Thanks for waiting. Even though it's been forever since I updated, I still get views and chit. So Thanks! The next chapter will be up soon. I got some ideas for it. I have a volleyball scrimmage coming up, and practice is exhausting. That's mainly the reason for late update. I'll update soon though. Kay, bye.
