So I know it has been a while since I have posted a new chapter. The thing is that I have had a lot of emotional shit hit me all at once. I found out that i have clinical depression, schizophrenia, and a few other things. Then my girlfriend of 5 months had been cheating on me for about 3 of them, and school started back causing me to go almost completely insane. But then i found a new girl, school has calmed down, and I got to go to DragonCon. My mind has actually gotten a rest in and is ready to write some more. Again sorry for taking so long. Now for the disclaimer.
Wildberry Princess: B-but I'm not even in this story.
Don't worry about it WP, your just doing a disclaimer.
Wildberry Princess: O-okay. Ehhem, E-exodix does not own any part of Adventure Time. Pendelton Ward and Natasha Allegri own all rights to the show and comics. Um, was that all right.
That was perfect. I'll see you later ok. Make some meat pies for me please.
Wildberry princess: All right, I'll see you later.
Now onto the story.
I wake up in the tree that I had fell asleep in feeling stiff, a crick in my neck hurting like someone had stabbed me. I look up at the place where I had stabbed the knife in, but something was wrong, and at first I couldn't tell what it was but slowly it dawned on me.. The ruby encrusted knife was no longer there. I jump up almost falling off the branch, and quickly scan the ground looking hard to find it. The history with that knife was to great for me to lose it.
Wandering through the mountain forest... A green man with yellow cloths and hat... A girl with him staring at me menacingly... All of us talking for hours... A knife given as a friend...
"Damn it," I yell out frustrated with the fact that I can not seem to find it anywhere. I continue searching for about an hour, but finally give up knowing that it had been stolen from me while I slept. I pull off my backpack and start checking to make sure that whoever had taken the dagger had not found that my bag was full of rare stuff that had been collected over my many years of searching. I stick my head in and start to look around it, trying to see everything in it at once. "There is the declaration, the Mona Lisa, part of the statue of liberty." I sigh, "Looks like everything is still in here, just my dagger was taken." I look around, trying to find some footprints or even a smell in the air, but there was nothing.
Falling back I plop down on the ground and lean against the tree that I had slept on. I look up and think back to the night before when I had managed to sneak the small box containing the stuffed bear with long arms that Marceline called Hambo onto her front porch while she slept. I think about how surprised she should be about it and hopefully she will realize that someone from the past is back. I know that Simon should be dead by now, and if not he must have become something none human like myself. I hoped for his and Marceline's sake that he had not. 'If she realizes that its me, maybe she will go to the princess and ask for help to find me.' I think wondering how that would turn out. I pull out my old pocket watch that I have kept ticking for nearly nine hundred years, and realize that it is nearly noon, and that if the princesses are really punctual they will want me at the tree house before two, to start telling the story again.
I sigh slightly, sliding the watch back into my pocket it glinting in the afternoon sun. "Why did I have to promise to tell them?" I ask myself and start walking out towards the edge of the woods. I look around seeing a bunch of different tiny animals scurrying around, running away from me as I walk within five feet of them. "I'm not that scary right now little animals." I say softly to them, wishing that for once I could have an animal like me. I had never had a pet, even before I changed, or even before the mushroom war. My sister was always allergic to dogs and cats, and we weren't responsible enough to take care of fish. "Oh Marciline how I miss you." I say smiling at my memories of us begging for a puppy.
As I make it to the edge of the forest I notice a glint of gold up in the sky, like a plane floating high in the sky. I could not make out at all what it was fully, but I could swear that I saw white wings flapping under it. I run after it but can not keep up, so I make a mental note to chase it the next time I see it, or maybe to search for it when I get the chance. I watch as it disappears into a place full of mountains, and snow covering everything that can be seen of it. I then turn my attention to the task on hand, and start walking towards the tree house once again.
Once I reach it, I knock loudly on the door, and it is instantly opened by all four of them. Before I realize whats going on I am suddenly pulled through the door way and pushed up the stairs. "Its about time you got here. It's almost two thirty." Said princess Bubblegum loudly trying to push me up the ladder faster. "I heard from Marceline that she received a present last night." With that I raised an eyebrow innocently trying to say that it couldn't have been me, but no one in the group noticed as they were to busy pushing me as hard and fast as they could, even though the only one really making any progress was the dog Jake.
I look at each one of them individually and try to figure out why they are so excited to hear about Marceline's and my past. I just couldn't understand the fact that they wanted to know every detail of it. They even made me recite the lyrics to the song that I had told them we sang. But right then a thought crossed my mind. "Flame Princess you still need to fix my sword." I say firmly, looking down at her pushing me.
"I will fix it after you tell us more of the story." She says slightly annoyed with the fact that I called her on it.
"Well actually I won't tell you any more until you fix it." I say, making it clear that I am serious about what I say. I can clearly see the anger on her face, but Princess Bubblegum looks at her disapprovingly and mutters to her that they had promised to fix the sword after I had told them how I knew Marcy, and that me telling them more was out of the goodness of my heart, no matter how cold it was. I smile, glad that they were princesses and had to follow the rules that they themselves had set down.
When we reached the top of the ladder, I suddenly catch the scent of meat flooding the house, and I realize how hungry I am. I down want to ask them for food, but my stomach gives me away and growls loud enough for everyone to hear. When they do they all start laughing, looking at me. "You want some grub man?" Finn ask me. "We can eat while FP gets that sword fix. Although I don't know why you don't just get a new one. That one is whack."
I know that he doesn't mean to be disrespectful, but he was insulting the sword that had save Marceline's life. I let an internal sigh out, holding in my anger, making sure not to lash out at him. "That sword has to many memories to get rid of," I say calmly, making sure that he knows not to say anything like that again. "But yes I would like some food. Its hard to find food with no money these days." I say and we all sit down to eat.
After we're done I grab the old blade by the hit and lift it high with one hand. I swing it around a few times, showing off a little how good I am with a blade, and then set it back down on the table. "All right, now that its down where did I leave off last time." I asked.
"you Marcy and Simon had sung the song, then gone to sleep." Said Jake quickly.
I looked at him, "That's right, well after that something big happened, It might take a few days to tell all of it though." I say hoping that they won't ask for it all, but they all say they are fine with that and I sigh. "Fine. Well what happened next was we woke up the next day and..."
