Chapter 3
Finn arrived at the Candy Kingdom later that night due to the chances that he play with the Marshmallow kids with candy cane, Helping the senior citizens at carrying their things and helping Mr. Cupcake to work out which to good terms help him recover from the sadness and bad because he might miss the pasta night but once he step foot at drawbridge of Princess Bubblegum, he felt nervous and bummed out.
"Come in Finn!" The two banana guards said in unison, "Uhh Finn," One banana guard said which made Finn turned in curiosity, watching the guard fidgeting at his spear while the other just watch him fidget. "We are just wondering if you want to support us at the banana guards olympics tomorrow. We really want to get double promotion."
Finn avoided the gaze and scratched the back of his head. "Why me of all people? you can ask PB to support or maybe some citizens." He said nervously, The guards exchanged looks with a poker-face expression.
"You're our hero!" Banana guard 1 said.
"and inspiration." followed by banana guard 2 "and idol so PRETTY PLEASE?"
They gave Finn a determined and full-of-hope-and-expectation look and Finn don't want anymore failure so he let out a charming smile and very relaxed. "Sure." then he put his hands at his waist and act confidently. "Just wear something sporty and unique and has a red bandanna." He ordered.
"Why and why color red, why not pink?"
"or blue?"
"Because to know who I'm cheering for and red is a sign of fierce and bravery so of course it's red." Finn replied in confidence. "So is Princess Bubblegum in the building?" he asked curiously and the guards nodded synchronized.
"She's at the dining hall."
"Eating with Marceline the Vampire Queen."
"All right thanks." Finn left the entrance and go straight to the hall. He then saw Marceline teasing and making fun of Bubblegum while the scientist is doing science paperworks, Marceline wore a black t-shirt, red scarf, jeans and matching red boots, Bubblegum is wearing her usual outfit but with lab coat and his bubblegum hair pinned up in a ponytail. He saw the long table is full of experiments, papers, potions, telescopes, 2 plateful of grilled steaks and a big bowl of candy in the middle. He entered the room and took a seat in front of them watching how the two girls(or women) fight like cats and dogs, arguing. He was amazed at how concentrated they are fighting without them noticing him even enter. He reached for a candy cane and going to eat it but Princess Bubblegum quickly took it his hand before he eat it.
"No sweets for you without dinner." Princess Bubblegum simply said. She and Marceline stopped arguing for a kid getting candy.
"C'mon Bonnibell, sweets isn't that bad. Give the child candy." Marceline said as she sat down. "It's a child's life to eat candy."
"Marcy, Finn is 15 years old he's not a kid anymore and everyone should have dinner first before desserts." Bubblegum said firmly as she looked at Peppermint Butler who knew exactly what to give to Finn.
"Yeah, whatever." Marceline sat down at her seat and eats her dinner quietly. Bubblegum continue to do her work and Finn is given another plateful of steak.
"Thanks Pep-But," Finn accepted the dinner knowing he might take long for him to be sure that Jake will be sleeping with the sheep until the moment he went home and eat it.
Princess Bubblegum and Marceline ignored Finn for a few seconds and Marceline watched eat. "So Finn, what bring you to Bonibell's domain?" she said breaking the silence. Bubblegum stopped her work and put it aside and looked at Finn turning to his attention. "Aww Princess Bonnibel have no manners."she said sarcastically and Princess Bubblegum just gave her a glare then the queen stick her tongue her out but they just waited for the young man to speak up.
"What will you do if you're bummed out or something? A feeling of there's something missing in you? Like something bringing you down?" Finn asked sadly and the girls exchanged looks. Marceline floated towards her friend and patted his back.
"Have fun and enjoy life, your life is young so enjoy it till death do you part." Marceline said in an inspired tone. Finn tried that just after his break up which made him really messed up so he promised to himself he will not take that advice seriously.
"Marceline, don't think about death yet, he'll be traumatized or something." Bubblegum scolded that made Marceline stick her tongue out again and Finn smirked. "By the way, why ask us?"
"Don't worry PB, I won't think that way," Finn said waving his hand meaning 'no'. "You two are one of eldest people I know which give good pointers, I think."
Bubblegum turned into a shade of light pink in her flawless pink bubblegum skin. The term eldest people got her to think she's one of wisest of Ooo but Marceline cut off saying. "I accept that I'm one of oldest than my looks because I'm a thousand years old and a thousand years but PB is an old geezer now."
The princess turned to rage of anger at the term 'old geezer'. "I'M NOT OLD, EXCUSE ME I'M NINETEEN YEA-"
"No you're not," Finn then cut off innocently. "Remember the amulet I returned to you. My previous life form stole it from you remember? That can't be your ancestor because she called you at your name."
Bubblegum just breathe slowly and calmed down as Marceline laughed. "Anyways, how about face that and the consequence you're gonna get. If you succeed, then you're feelings will get well." she said in a firm and mature voice with a comforting smile. "Is this about your dad?"
Finn nodded. "Yeah, a little and something else that's hard to explain." he then sulk at the edge of his seat.
"Well, as much as I want to ask," Marceline began, even she has a feeling that it's about a certain girl with fire as her hair and body-she just want to confirm but as soon as she saw the glare from Bubblegum. "-which I think it's best not to but let me tell you something Finny, don't care what others say or feel towards you, just do your thing and decide for your own. If you think it's best to still talk to the person then go." Those words both, PB's and Marcy's make his face full of hope and cheering up. Their words helped to stand little by little. He was thankful to have friends like them.
"Thanks guys for the advice." Finn said standing up and about to take leave
"By the way, just asking of curiosity..." Bubblegum, began the two look at her. "You say we are ONE of the eldest people who give good points, tell me who's the other?"
"Well, Simon is one," he then grinned, and made the girls' jaw dropped. "By the way, tomorrow is Banana guards olympics right?" Bubblegum just nodded. "Don't start without me okay?" then he ran and went home.
Marceline and Princess Bubblegum just watched the boy left. "Well, I can't believe Simon can give that kind of advice to Finn. I'm so proud of Simon." Marceline said smiling.
"Yeah, no kidding." Bubblegum said in surprise. "Care to help me arrange for the event Marcy?"
"It will be my pleasure." Marceline winked. "By the way, Finn didn't get his candy cane today."
Yeah it's done! Woohoo! \(^_^)/
