Chapter Two


Recap:

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

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


"What do you want?!" The voice seethed, "I told you to never call me again."

"Is that anyway to talk to your friend?" Fionna playfully scolded.

"Fionna, I'm warning you." The voice threatened.

"FP, Are a bunch of empty threats going to help?"

"Shut up."

"Where's the old Flame Prince?" A tear silently slipped out and slid down her face. "I know you didn't mean to."

"Fionna." His voice got softer. "I don't know why you still try. You'll only get burned again."

"Look, I'm starting a night patrol. Come if you want. I don't care. We start patrolling tonight." She sighed,

"I'll think about it." Fionna smiled and hung up. She walked downstairs and put the phone on the hook.

"What's got you in such a good mood?"

"Nothing." Fionna couldn't tell Cake, she would freak.

"Fionna." Cake's voice got stern. "Spill. Who did you invite?"

"Flame Prince." She murmured.

"Tell me I am hearing things, because you couldn't have just said Flame Prince!"

"I did." Fionna cringed.

"Fionna! He gave you that scar on your cheek! Don't you remember?!"

"Cake, he didn't mean to." Fionna pleaded.

"He still slapped you. It had to have burned. I mean, he is made from fire!"

"Whatever. I have a night patrol to prepare for." Fionna went to her room to get ready.

...

Fionna and Cake walked into the castle. They were going to a meeting about the night patrol. Gumball insisted that they get permission from the guards. They saw a table occupied by the two Banana Guards, "There you two are!" Gumball rushed into the room, "I thought you two would never get here. Now let's get this meeting started." Everyone took a seat at the table.

"It seems as though you want to start a night patrol, Is that right?" One of the guards began.

"Yes. I believe with Cake and I watching out, there won't be a problem." Fionna stated.

"Really?" The guards glanced at each other. "I don't think it's your job. We are the guards."

"It's our job to protect the citizens of Aaa, and if it means doing night patrols then we'll do it!" Fionna jumped up, slamming her hands on the table, and shouted.

"Fionna, please calm down." Gumball grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back into her seat.

"Well we're the guards, so it's our job to protect everyone too. We don't think we need your help."

"Yeah? Well you obviously haven't been doing ya'll's job good enough!" Fionna shouted.

"You tell 'em, Sugar!" Cake encouraged.

"Cake! Don't encourage her!" Gumball hissed.

"Listen. I honestly don't think you two ladies are cut out for this kind of stuff." The two Banana Guards got up. "If you two get in our way, we will arrest you." They then left, leaving a flaming Fionna and a nervous Gumball.

"Let's go, Cake. We have things to do." Fionna walked to the door, Cake followed nervously.

...

"Fionna!" Cake whispered. "Why in the hell are we doing this?!" Fionna had somehow convinced Cake to come with her. They were meeting Flame Prince to start the night patrol. "You do know we could be arrested!"

"I know. If we listen to those two idiots, more citizens will die." Fionna said, "Let's just meet with Flame Prince and get started." They had gone to one of the alleys to meet with Flame Prince.

"But Fi-"

"Hey Fionna, long time no see." Cake stopped when she heard a familiar husky voice. They turned to see none other than Flame Prince.

"U-Um, Hi." Fionna shifted awkwardly, suddenly finding the littered alley ground very interesting.

"Should we get started or stand around?" Cake interrupted. Fionna nodded, grateful for the distraction.

"Alright. We now that the killer usually strikes at night. " Flame Prince nodded, telling Fionna to continue, "So, we are patrolling the land."

"Let's get started, then!" Flame Prince said, and they headed out.

...

After a couple hours of patrolling, the trio decided to take a break. "Are you even sure the killer will strike tonight?"

"FP, Whoever it is strikes about every night." Fionna answered.

"What if this isn't one of his or her nights?"

"We don't know that yet," Fionna grimaced. "I do know that when we find whoever it is, they'll be in for an ass beating."

"Alright, well let's keep looking, hopefully we will find the killer."

"Whatever. Let's go." Fionna grabbed Flame Prince's hand, making them both blush, and tugged him onward.

"Fionna, we got trouble. My tail is totally frizzin' out." It wasn't long after Cake's announcement, they heard a wierd evil laugh. "Did you guys hear that?"

"Let's go check it out." Fionna pulled out her sword, "I bet it's the killer."

...

"Let's see. I hear Cinnamon Bun is an easy target." A dark figure evilly laughed in the darkness of the alley. He silently crept out of the alley.


Sorry it's another late and a short update, but it's August and I just started back school! Also here's my reasons for not updating:

-The days are long-I mainly work at night..

-I have volleyball practice every single day and two games a week (I may have to play varsity and junior varsity), so I'm very exhausted..

-I'm in therapy at least once or twice a month.

-Also next Tuesday I am getting my hair dyed, so that may or may not effect my mood...

Also, Thanks for the few people who reviewed! I appreciate it. The whole time I sat on my lazy butt I was like 'You have to update for the reviewers. You guys inspire me to update! Thanks!

Again, sorry...I have lots of stuff to do, but I will update-I won't give up, I still have inspiration...

-Nevaeh

P.S I may make a few requested Adventure Time one-shots to make up for late updates...Any requests?
