So I'm gonna follow that advice, so please mind the changes. Please don't kill me.) Chapter 5: The Dark Princess of Music Pt. 2 Finn's eyes widen as he sees the sun disappear in the horizon. He thought of what Marceline would do if he didn't get there in time. And Well, let's just say, his imagination has become really creative since the knife storm back in Ooo. So the picture is not pretty. He ran out the door and ran so fast, you could see after images behind him. He ran across the town, and due to his speed, bumped a few things several times. He had no time to slow down, he was terrified of what Marceline would do do him. He ran and ran. He had no way of getting to Canterlot Castle in time, but he just wouldn't slow down. It took him a really long time to get there. The moon was already rising , and when he got there, he was sweating like a pig, and was panting endlessly. Then when he finally had the energy to speak, he called out. "Marceline? I'm here! " But heard no response. He called out again, and again, until he was suddenly pounced on. The figure covered his mouth with her hoof as Finn started panicing and flailing his arms around. "What the heck are you doing!? Be Quiet!" She whispers as if she was shouting. "Mmph!" Finn's voice is muffled as the figure's hoof is still covering his mouth. "Shh.." She put her hoof to her mouth as she says this, gets up and looks around the corner. She sees two guards having a conversation. She gives a sigh of relief and walks back to Finn. Finn starts examining his jaw as the figure walks to him. "You're late..." She quietly says. "Ow... Wait, M-Marceline? " "What do you think?" She says in an irritated tone. " Oh..." Then he realizes that she noticed that he is late. " Oh Glob! Marceline don't rip my eyes out and use them as ping pong balls! Don't remove my skin and use it as a fur coat! Don-" Marceline covers his mouth. "Be quiet you idiot! I won't do any of those things! You'll attract some of the guards!" She silently shouts. " I'm sorry..." He whispers. "...Uh yeah, whatever. Let's go." She blows some of her hair away from her face. "Uh, wait I'll just put this on." He pulls out his Shadow Costume. " Ugh...Fine, but make it quick. " She says as Finn puts on his costume. +++ They walk through the castle gardens, With Finn switching shadow to shadow, and Marceline disappearing into the night. They keep going until they reach the entrance. And Finn realizes something. "Wait a minute... Why do you need MY help when you can just disappear?" He cocks his head to the side. "Um...Well.." She says. "...Wait a minute, wait a minute! You were just lonely all by yourself and you wanted someone to hang out with!" "Sh-Shut up!" Finn starts laughing until Marceline brings out her axe bass. Where she keeps that, Finn will never know. Marceline was about to hit Finn until they heard a familiar voice. "Pinkie, Spike, We need to find the Starswirl the Bearded wing!" It says. Marceline recognizes the voice right away and looks up. Twilight is at the tower window. Finn looks up and sees Twilight with another Shadow Costume. "...So that's where it went." He thought. "Oh my Glob it's Twilight Sparkle!" Marceline says as she drops the axe bass and gets ready to fly up and pounce the poor unicorn, Until Finn holds her back by the tail with his teeth. "Now Marceline, Let's focus on the task at hand!" He says. Marceline looks at Finn. "Ugh...Fine." She was about to float down when a bright light shines upon them. "Hey! What are you two doing here?!" A guard says. Both their eyes widen as they see him. "Hey, Marceline?" "Yes Finn?" "Run." Marceline grabs her axe bass and they both rush into the entrance door. +++ The duo are now in the main hall. "Quick Finn! Find anything that can bar the door!" Marceline says. "Okay! Uh.." Finn says as he runs around looking for something. He sees so many useless things but can't find anything that can bar the door. The door knob starts to shake furiously. "Quick! He's getting in!" Meanwhile... "How the Tartarus do I open this!?" The guard says as he tries to open the door but fails miserably. His hooves just can't find its grip on the door knob. His hooves keep slipping from the knob. "How did those two open this damned thing?!" Back to Finn... "Just leave it! We have no time!" Finn says. Marceline nods and they both run to the door between the two staircases. They get in and they close it. They both give out a sigh of relief, and when they turn around, Finn's relief is gone. In front of them, is a gigantic staircase going up. " Oh Come on! What the math.." Finn says. Finn groans audibly. "Well, Looks like YOU'RE gonna have a hard time. While I can just FLY up there." Marceline says as she flies up the staircase. Finn stands there, mouth agape, eyes widened. "...OH COME ON!!! " +++ 20 minutes later... Finn finally (but barely) gets to the top of the staircase where he sees Marceline jamming with her axe bass. "Sup Finn?" She smirks. "How could you just leave me like that?!" Finn shouts. " Woah dude, chill." She stands up and walks towards the center of the room where a gigantic tree stood. " This is the apple I'm talking about." she points to the giant red apple hanging from a branch. "Wow, you are right, I CAN smell the redness. I'm confused on how it's possible but, WOW." Finn says. "Yep, and it's all mine." She says in a satisfied tone. Finn closes his eyes tries to imagine how long it would last. "Wow, with that much redness, it could last month-" Finn hears slurpping sound and opens his eyes. Marceline is flying beside the apple, and she's drained the apple dry. "...Or three seconds." He looks at her with a 'Seriously-What-The-Hell-Dude-Face'. She then Burps really loud and she chuckles.
