"Trainees! Give me a hurrah!" Exclaimed Diligence wearing a dark blue crop turtleneck top and pants, her crown and fancy white boots. Crys stood next to her with a deep frown.

"Hurrah!" Exclaimed Finn wearing a sweater as Jake yawned sleepily. Crys's face became bluer in anger watching the two. The four were currently in an empty field of snow where no other soul could be seen.

"Can you tell me WHY candy boy is here again?" The ice Prince asked crossing his arms with a grumpy expression, causing his mother to sigh. "This is OUR training spot where we have OUR training!"

Diligence glanced at the very excited Finn with a tired expression before turning back to her child. "I couldn't get him off my leg." She replied in a whisper as a small smile crept onto her face. "Besides, we desperately could use some non ice people friends other than Gunter." Crys grumbled, yet he didn't object as his mother turned to the human. "Okay, Finn, let's start with the most important thing you have to learn. Can you guess what it is?"

Finn placed a hand on his chin, pondering the question with utmost seriousness. "How to cut a mountain in half with your sword?" He asked only to receive a chop to the head from Diligence. "Ow!"

"Wrong." Deadpanned the ice princess. "It's dodging." She added sternly, her expression cold as ice as she walked back and forth in front of the boy. "You have a squishy human body that can break and die easily. So your priority should be avoiding getting hit." Finn deflated upon hearing those words. "Now, I'm a little too extreme for you so I'm having my most trusted friend and advisor train you today. Gunter, you can come out now."

Finn and Jake immediately focused in unison upon hearing Diligence's words. Sweat rolled down their skin as they imagined what kind of monster the ice princess trusted the most. A giant shadow loomed over a hill as the being trudged through the snow. Fear began to seep into their bones before Gunter showed himself. "A penguin?" Asked Jake in surprise before extending his arm to Gunter. "What's up, little gu-" before Jake could finish his sentence, Gunter slapped him across the face.

"Listen here, peons!" Exclaimed Gunter firmly before crossing his flippers as Dilly removed her crown off her head and placed on Gunter's. "I'm Gunter and I'm your teacher for today. Now, fifty laps around the track! Dodge as you run!"

Finn and Jake blinked in confusion. "What track?" Asked Jake before Gunter fired a bolt of lightning towards the magic dog.

"FIND ONE!" Shouted Gunter furiously, causing the him, Finn and Crys to start running. Dilly smiled as she crossed her arms.

"Whip them good, Goonts." She said cheerfully as she headed back towards her palace with her hands on her hips. Gunter obliged and fired another bolt of magical lightning towards the three, causing Finn to scream.

"Why does he have ice powers?!" Screamed the human boy in fear before he was forced to dodge another icy bolt of lightning.

"It's the crown." Replied Crys with a deep frown as he ran beside Finn and Jake. "It gives its wearer ice powers."

Jake blinked. "So if we snatch it, he's powerless." He said, a mischievous smile spreading across his face. "We could even use the crown to-"

"No!" Crys quickly interjected. "The crown makes anyone who wears it go insane!" Finn blinked before he turned to Gunter who fired another bolt of ice their way, forcing them to dodge.

"He doesn't look that insane." Remarked the boy. "Ice Princess didn't look like it either."

"That's because they're immune to the insanity." Replied Crys in a serious tone, effortlessly dodging a bolt of lightning as he ran.

Hearing this, Jake blew a raspberry. "It just sounds like your mom told you that so you wouldn't touch her crown." He said calmly. "We should steal it." Crys glared at Jake with the power of a thousands suns only for the dog to chuckle. "Cmon, man, you don't want ice powers? Oh, right, you already got those."

Crys went silent as a dejected expression spread across his face. "I don't." He said, his shoulders slumping down as he dodged another ice attack. "I'm the only ice person who doesn't."

"Dude, you should totally wear that crown." Remarked Finn nonchalantly before Jake smiled mischievously. His arms stretched out sneakily towards Gunter and just before the penguin could fire another blast, Jake took the crown off his head and threw it towards Finn.

Gunter's eyes widened as he saw Finn catch said crown mid air before placing onto Crys' head. A panicked expression covered the penguin's face as Crys' pupils dilated before a visible cold breath left his throat. "You dumdums! Do you understand what you've just done?!" He snapped angrily. "Take it off his head now!"

"Psh, c'mon, let the guy have-" Jake couldn't finish his sentence before he heard an ominous laugh leave Crys.

"The crown, it whispers to me the secrets of ice and snow." The ice boy said with a maniacal chuckle, causing Finn ad Jake to back away from him slightly.

"I'm immune to the insanity of the crown, you idiot!" Shouted the penguin angrily. "I'll get Dilly." He added before rushing away from the scene. "Try not to die!" Finn and Jake blinked before they saw the world begin to darken around them. They looked up to find Crys' snow-white hair growing longer as twirled a snowstorm into existence.

Mid flight, Crys noticed something in the distance and grinned. "Oooh! The candy kingdom!" He exclaimed happily. "Yes...yes, I'm going to destroy it!" Finn and Jake went pale almost immediately. Jake quickly stretched upwards as Finn jumped on his back.

"You can't destroy the candy kingdom!" Exclaimed Finn causing the maddened Crys to tilt his head.

"But I can, look." He replied aiming his hand upwards before firing a bolt of lightning from his palm. The bolt of lightning moved arched through the air and over the distance before hitting one of the Candy Kingdom's palace's towers, freezing it entirely.

"Notwhatimeant! Notwhatimeant!" Shouted Finn in panic before pouncing off of Jake onto the ice prince taking them both down to the snowy ground. Both were unharmed, but Crys was not happy. He took a deep breath, filing his lungs wit air before blowing on Finn above him sending the boy flying into the air in a gust of wind.

Finn screamed before Jake caught him. However, Crys wasn't keen on letting them relax. He fired one bolt of icy lightning after another at the duo without mercy. However, the two zig zaged, jumped and titled away from all of them with minimal harm. "Hey, Ice Princess was right. Dodging is really-" before he could finish, a bolt of lightning smacked him in the chest before freezing everything below his neck in a block of ice.

"Finn!" Exclaimed Jake before a bolt of lightning hit him as well, freezing him completely. With the duo now subdued, Crys laughed at his victory reveling in his power to the point that he didn't notice someone appearing behind him from thin air. The figure merely took the crown off the boy's head as if it were the simplest task in the world and placed it on her head. It was none other than Diligence herself.

The princess of ice and snow waved her hand, freeing Finn and Jake in a single motion. "Can someone explain to me what happened here?" She asked angrily.

Crys groaned as his hair shortened back to normal. He massaged his temples as he spoke. "It's my fault." He said dejectedly before Finn jumped in literally.

"NO!" He said firmly with his face planted into the snow. "It's mine! I made him wear the crown! Punish me instead!"

Diligence pinched the bridge of her nose. "Anything to say, Jake the dog?" She said in a disappointed tone, causing said dog's ears to perk up.

"Oh yeah, why does it not make the talking penguin crazy?" Asked Jake curiously, causing Diligence to facepalm.

"Because Gunter is special and I'm already crazy so I'm not affected either." She replied calmly only to get confused gazed from everyone minus Gunter. "For example, I once murdered a group of people because they had no power to offer me. One of them was the guy who taught me everything I know about magic." Everyone's gazes immediately transformed from confused to terrified, causing Diligence to awkwardly avoid eye contact. "Now that I look back at it, that was extremely messed up. I need to make a snow therapist."

"Soooo, I'm not grounded?" Asked Crys with a hopeful expression and a weak smile.

Diligence shrugged. "Sure, no harm done." She said calmly before a giant hologram of princess Bubblegum appeared in the distance.

"Princess Diligence Snowflakes! For your aggression against the candy kingdom, I declare war between our kingdoms!" She said firmly.

Diligence took a deep exasperated breath as she gazed at Finn, Jake and Crys who all smiled nervously at what they had caused.
