Months passed since Leesco impersonated Marshall and ruined everything. Fionna was in the hospital again. This time… she was giving her child life. She was hoping Cake found Marshall in time for this but so far… still no sign of him anywhere.

Finn and Gumball were there to help Fionna through it. "Myth… still no sign of Marshall," Finn growled.

"It's not like he knows Fionna decided to keep the child instead. Remember what she told him before?" Gumball told him.

"Huh?" Finn thought back.

"You don't deserve to be a father, Marshall! After this, I'm going straight to Dr. Prince to get this thing out! I can't stand you or the fact that you'd go so far as to destroy everything in your path! I won't be having your globing child! You monster!"

"Yeah. He probably won't come back anyway," Finn looked down sadly. Fionna screamed, getting the boy's attention. "Fionna! We're right here!" said the boys.

"Marshall!" Fionna screamed, painfully as she pushed.

"That's it Fionna! Almost there! Come on girl, push again!" Dr. Prince told her. She screamed Marshall's name again as she pushed harder.

After about thirty minutes, the sound of the baby was heard in the room. Dr. Prince and some other doctors cleaned up the baby before giving it to Fionna once she was able to sit up.

"It's a boy," Dr. Prince smiled, handing the baby to her. Fionna held her baby close. "He looks like his father," she smiled. "Oh, Marshall… I wish you were here." She looked up at the ceiling thinking about Marshall. She's done nothing but that ever since that day on his birthday.

On the unknown land, Marshall walked across the land with the hood on his cloak up. His hair grew a bit. It's now down to his middle back, which came down the front of him whenever he had his hood up. Everywhere he looked, he saw Fionna's smiling face.

"Fionna," Marshall sighed sadly. "If only I could… I'd…" He was cut off by something big coming his way. He turned around to see a big machine thing heading right for him.

Marshall floated up and out of the machine things way. But once he got high enough… a pair of hands grabbed his shoulders, making him gasp in shock.

"It's been a while… Marshall."

"Leesco!" Marshall shouted in disbelief. He elbowed Leesco in the gut and floated away from him. He turned around to see him.

"Nice hit, dude."

"What do you want? You've already ruined my life! You took everything from me! What more do you want?!"

"Heh. I see you're still not dead," Leesco smirked, floating around Marshall. "Here I thought you'd kill yourself by now. What, with all this sun around."

"I… I rather stay here… alone for the rest of my worthless life. No one but you found me after all these months… so no one will ever find me here," Marshall told him, looking down sadly.

Leesco continued to float around Marshall, smirking.

Over the sea, Cake was riding on Jake who made himself into a Han glider. "You sure you want to look over the sea for him?" Jake asked the cat.

"I promised Fionna that I wouldn't stop until I found him. Marshall is the one who can really help Fionna now," Cake told him.

"Yeah, you're right," Jake agreed. They came across an unknown land. Cake looked in the sky while Jake skimmed the ground. After a while they heard talking.

"They really want you dead, dude."

"That jerk!" Cake growled. Jake went closer to the voice and saw Leesco circling around someone in a cloak.

"Well, they can figure it out by now! I am dead! Dead to them cause I'm never going to go back there! They don't need me!"

"Marshall!" Cake yelled. "Marshall, that's not true! Fionna really needs you!"

"Huh?" Marshall turned around to see the cat and dog. "What are you two doing here?"

"Fionna really needs you, Marshall. We all do. We're deeply sorry for not seeing the difference between the two of you," Cake told him.

"You guys don't need me. I…" Marshall held back his tears. Cake stretched her head over to Marshall's ear to whisper something to him.

"Fionna kept the baby. She has done nothing all these months but think about you. Please Marshall, she needs you," Cake whispered to him.

"Really?" Marshall asked in disbelief. "You're kidding…"

"No, no I'm not. Please, Marshall… come back with us," Cake pleaded. Marshall let a tear fall from his eye. He reached out his hand to take Cake's… but Leesco wrapped his arm around Marshall's neck.

"You're going nowhere near those dummies!" Leesco shouted, floating away from Cake.

"Arck! Let go!" Marshall choked out, trying to get Leesco's arm off him.

"You jerk!" Jake growled as he stretched his fist over to Leesco and punched him in his face. "Let him go!"

"I think not. Nice punch though," Leesco hissed, rubbing his cheek. He tightened his grip on Marshall's neck, making him choke even more.

Cake hissed at Leesco as she jumped off of Jake, digging her claws into Leesco's face. "Let him go or I'll claw your face off!"

"Get off me, feline!" Leesco shouted, trying to get Cake off him as well as hanging onto Marshall.

"Marshall!" Jake shouted, stretching his arms out to him. "Grab on!" Marshall gasped for air as he tried reaching out for Jake's paws with one of his hands.

"Get off me you stupid cat!" Leesco shouted with hate. Marshall elbowed him in the gut again, harder than the first time. Leesco gasped and released Marshall from his grip. He grabbed his stomach as Cake jumped off him. Landing on Jake's back, grabbing on to Marshall's arm.

"Marshall!" Cake shouted in worry.

"I'm fine," Marshall coughed out.

"We won't force you to come back with us, Marshall," Jake told him. "But Fionna truly needs you now, more than ever."

"Please, Marshall," Cake pleaded. Marshall looked at the two animals for a little while. He wanted to see Fionna again… he wanted to see everyone again… he just didn't know right now.

"Alright," Marshall said with a nod. "I want to see them," he thought. "I want to believe you two… I just… don't know. I'll go back with them just to… see them."

Cake pulled Marshall onto Jake, but Leesco grabbed onto Marshall's feet before he was all the way on the dog. Marshall gasped, looking down to see Leesco's demon eyes staring into his soul.

Leesco pulled Marshall towards him. Cake tried pulling Marshall on Jake, but it was a tug-a-war with Marshall as the rope.

They pulled each way on Marshall, just as the sun was starting to set. Leesco went into his demon form. It was a nastier version of Marshall's demon form.

"You're not going anywhere near those people!" Leesco shouted, yanking Marshall away from Cake and Jake.

"Marshall!" the two shouted. Marshall went into his demon form as the two vampires fought. Jake and Cake wanted to help him in the fight, but they saw that they'd just be in the way.

Marshall fought against Leesco throughout the night. Leesco tore Marshall apart with his own axe guitar. It soon ended with Marshall throwing Leesco through the portal to the Nightosphere and Marshall reverting back to normal falling to the ground.

"Marshall!" Cake shouted, stretching out and grabbed him in time. "Marshall. Come on, boy, you've gotta be okay."

Marshall was bleeding in a few places. His arm, leg, face and the right side of his chest. He gasped for air, wincing each time he took a breath.

"Come on, dog! We gotta get him back to Dr. Prince like… NOW!" Cake yelled, using her own self to bandage up Marshall's wound on his chest.

"You got it," Jake made himself into a jet with Marshall and Cake inside so if the sun came up it wouldn't hurt Marshall. Jake flew back to where Dr. Prince was as fast as he could.

Around the same time, Fionna mulled over some names for her son. But nothing came to mind. She was outside the hospital with her baby in her arms.

"I'm sorry, little one. I don't know what to name you," Fionna sighed, looking down at him.

"Hey, Fionna," Finn said softly, coming over to her. "Are you doing okay?"

"Yeah," Fionna said sadly. "I just wish Marshall was here."

"Yeah. Me too, girl. Me too," Finn sighed sadly. After a while, Prince Gumball walked out of the hospital. He went over to Fionna with some water.

"Would you like some water, Fionna?" he asked her softly.

"Yeah. Thanks," Fionna said, reaching up to take the glass of water. But before she could take it, Jake shouted franticly from the skies.

"Dr. Prince! We need you right now!" he made himself go back to his normal shape as Cake held onto the bleeding vampire.

Fionna turned around and gasped. She got up in a snap. Running over to Cake and Jake, still holding her baby. "Marshall!" she shouted once she got over to them. "Marshall, please wake up!"

"Marshall, hang in there, sweetie. Hang on," Cake said, worriedly. Marshall groaned in pain, struggling to open his eyes. Once he did, the first one he saw was…

"F-Fionna?" Marshall groaned painfully.

"Marshall, please. You gotta be okay, please!" Fionna pleaded.

"Fi-Fionna…" Marshall struggled to lift his hand to touch her face.

"Cake, please. Get him inside," Fionna told her cat friend, as she took ahold of Marshall's hand. Their fingers getting tangled up with each other.

"Alright girl," Cake nodded as she stretched a little so she could actually lift the vampire. "You're gonna be okay, Marshall."

"Fi… Fionna…" Marshall said weakly. Fionna ran with Cake to get Marshall to Dr. Prince.

"Marshall…" Fionna said, gazing into Marshall's half-open eyes. They ran into the room where Dr. Prince was, begging for his help.

Dr. Prince nodded, taking Marshall from Cake. Fionna wanted to go in the room with him, but she had to wait outside the door. Her fingers separated from Marshall's as the door closed.

"Marshall…" Fionna said softly. She turned her head to her cat. "Cake!"

"Hm?" Cake looked at herself. "It's not my blood girl. It was the only way to get Marshall here in time so he wouldn't bleed to death." Fionna sighed with relief.

"What happened, Cake?" Fionna asked, her eyes full of worry.

"Leesco… happened," Cake sighed. "That's how we actually did find Marshall. Once I told Marshall about you keeping your child… and that you needed him… he thought for a while and decided to come back with us. But Leesco wouldn't let him go anywhere. The two had a showdown and believe me girl, I would've jumped in but the way those two were fighting… I would've just made things worse."

"And… where's Leesco now?" Finn asked in a slight growl.

"I think Marshall sent him back to the Nightosphere," Jake told him.

"That dude… must pay for this," Finn said softly, yet angrily. The baby started crying suddenly.

"Oh, it's okay," Fionna said softly to her baby. "Daddy will be fine. It's okay." Her baby calmed down steadily as he slightly opened his eyes to look at her.

Fionna was thinking about nothing right now… except her baby and… Marshall.
