Don't Fall into the Dark
Chapter 2
Marshall Lee woke up in a cold sweat. It was that nightmare again. The more Marshall had it the more he hated himself. After his sister Mar left he meet a traveler named Samantha who had taken care of him for a few years then had left him too. After the Samantha thing he lived on his own for a while until he meet Loe a middle-aged woman who offered to take care of him and after a few years he started calling her mom and soon enough she bit him and turned him into the king he is now. He had friends and such but that never helped the fact it was his fault he lost his sister. More than a thousand years since that happened he already expected her to be dead. Laying his head back down into the pillow he sighed.
Then like life carried on there was a knock on his down. Muttering a curse word to himself he floated down stairs not caring about his current appearance he opened the door to the young energetic blonde adventuress Fionna.
"Hey Marshall I just wanted to invi- MARSHALL YOUR SHIRTLESS!" she screamed covering her eyes
He looked down feeling annoyed and flew upstairs throwing a random shirt on then flew back down to greet the little ball of sunshine.
"Hey Fionna what you need" He asked in a Tired deep voice
"Hey dude I wanted to make sure if you were going to play at the ball tonight" she asked
"huh oh yeah sure whatever" he answered rubbing his eyes and sighing
"hey man are you okay? You seem all down in the dumpster" she asked worried
"oh yeah umm sorry I just was thinking of my sister again and its gets me down" he answered truthfully
Fionna's eyes suddenly got huge and Marshall had just realized what he did face-palming himself Fionna used the loudest voice she had
"YOU HAVE A SISTER!" she said more of a statement then a question
"Uhh yeah…..but it's my fault she's gone I wouldn't be surprised if she was dead either" he said coldly then stared off the to side
"DON'T SAY THAT! WHAT IF SHES ALIVE?! WHAT IF SHE LIVES AROUND HERE?! WHAT IF WHAT IF-"she screamed before being cut off by Marshall
"Fionna stop yelling I'm right here and what if what?" he asked a little annoyed
"What if we looked for her together" she whispered
Marshall was silent for a minute as if he was trying to take in the whole situation for himself. He thought of all the things wrong with that then looked back at the blonde girl
"Fionna….I can't even list how many things are wrong with that idea….the last time I saw her was over a thousand years ago there's no way she's still around and even if we found anything out about her it's not like we can bring her back to life anyway" he replied
"but it would be worth it just to know what happened to her wouldn't it?" she asked sadly
"no…no! NO! just NO! Fionna look just forget it okay? She's not coming back! Why don't you just leave? Ill see you at gumball's party" he said closing the door in her face
He only had an hour to get everything ready and dressed for the ball bubble-butt was throwing and he had to hurry. He started by putted his 3x3ft amp and axe bass by the door. He jumped in the shower washing his hair with twilight scented shampoo and conditioner. He Dried and styled his hair, combing it out and applying hair gel. Satisfied with his hair he moved to his bedroom to pick out his wardrobe. After a few minutes of going through all his dressy clothes he pulled on black skinny jeans, put on a white dress shirt the came down to his elbow with a black open vest over it and an aqua blue tie and last but not least he put on black and aqua blue shoes to match.
He flew into the kitchen and inserted his fangs into an apple then a few strawberries. He walked into the living room and threw the axe bass over his shoulder. Feeling like he had forgotten something he looks back and spots the chain necklace with the two dog tags on it. Staring at them for a while he sighs, picks them up and puts them in his pocket. He picks up his amp with his vampire strength and fly's over to the candy kingdom.
After he arrives he greets bubba and starts to set up his bass and plugs in his amp. While the other guitarist and drummer set up the sound and their instruments, hitting a few notes to make sure there in tune Marshall lets his eyes search the crowd for a certain blonde.
"h-hey marshall" he heard someone almost whisper behind him
He turns around and is instantly mesmerized by the young adventuress. She wasn't wearing her bunny hat and let her hair flow down past her shoulders a bit. She wore a strapless white dress that had three layers that ended at her knee's. she wore a little bit of make-up that was enough to complement her facial features.
"do i-I look w-w-weird?" she asked looking down at the floor
"FIONNA YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL" he told her
"thanks Marshall" she said smiling at him "are you about to play?"
"yeah wanna watch?" he asked
"of course" she told him
After about four songs that Marshall sang the more and more people listened and cheered even the candy prince himself clapped along. Marshall looked around and smirked to himself getting an evil idea
"hey im going to do something a little different at this performance" he said "Fionna could you come up to the stage please?" he asked into the mic
Everyone cheered as she had gotten up with Marshall help. He motioned her to a seat and the band started to play
Were you honest when you said
I could never leave your bed?
Wake me up and let me know you're alive
And will you fall in love again?
Is the scent slowly spreading
I've been answering machines all night
Now the doctor's dancing in
while the ambulance's sing
Another boy without a sharper knife
That moment, that where i
Kill the conversation
Wrap this up
With a knife that loves to feel
How do you know how deep to go before it's real
Take me home!
The crowd cheered louder and Fionna blushed. Marshall smirked at her
"don't fall for me now Fi" he laughed floating off stage
