Yeah, your absolutely right. I am completely tired of this thing. I lasted a little over a month, I think that's a pretty good time to have kept this up.
Last story, lets try to end it by the next chapter.

The Hunter
Part 5
The sun had come very close to setting. The woods were far darker than they had been previously. A black creature gnawed on a plant before spitting it back out. A few of it's brood gathered around before they moved on, unaware that they were being stalked.
The hunter had taken the lead since the trail left behind by the pests was too difficult for Finn or Jake to see. Whenever the creatures left their field of view they moved ahead painfully slowly, attempting to avoid accidentally running right into them whenever they stopped.
The creatures disappeared into what the trio could barely recognize as a cabin, or at least what was left of one. An old dead tree wrapped around the building and moss hung from it's walls. They hesitated to approach out of concern that the brood was waiting just inside.
The hunter quietly crept up to where the front door had once been. Time had completely destroyed the doors frame, twisting it out of place. A few splintered pieces of wood hung from the entrance. The hunter very slowly leaned into the building attempting to let his eyes adjust to the dark interior.
The creatures were nowhere to be found within it. He signaled for Finn and Jake to approach as he entered the ancient abode. The wooden floor groaned under his weight the moment he stepped foot inside. Broken furniture lay throughout the room, he waited for Finn and Jake to enter before they searched through it.
A fairly large hole was in the rooms wall, a small tunnel heading straight down was inside it. Finn noticed a cleaner looking part of the floor near the corner of the room. A table covered in a dirty rag sat on top of it. He quickly threw the rag to the side and moved the table to the side before examining the floor itself.
"You mind giving me a hand with this man?" Finn asked Jake.
Jake nodded in return before taking a look at the section of floor. A barely visible crevice in the wood formed a rectangle. Both he and Finn presumed that they could open that section of floor somehow. It would likely require them to find a switch of some kind so naturally Jake simply made his fist very large and smashed it open.
The hunter jumped at the sound of the wooden floor shattering. "What are you doing!?"
"We found the way in." Finn responded.
He looked at the broken section of floor. Stairs were built underneath them, leading down under the cabin.
"Well let's go beat him up and save your people from starvation!" Finn drew his weapon and rushed down the stairs.
"Wait! Beat who?" The hunter called.
"You know, the evil wizard." Jake responded.
"When was there an evil wizard?" the hunter asked.
"These pests are made by magic, there's a lair hidden beneath this cabin... So, yeah. Obviously." Jake joined Finn. The hunter looked around the room for a few moments before deciding to stay the course and stick with them.

Well... This is it. Just one more chapter and this thing's done.
