Adventure Time: The Human and The Shadow

The Greater Evil

A/N: Thanks to those that reviewed and left comments :) You'll be glad to know that there is a bit more to the plot in this one. If you haven't already google the Adventure Time Map it helps understand the story more. I try to use the Adventure Time Wiki and the actual show itself for facts and try to keep it as correct as i can. I'm going to be adding a new character to the story soon but I'm stuck as to what species i should make them. If you have any suggestions just leave them with the review. Thanks again!

Author Note: (On an adventure time map Ice kingdom is to the far north and Fire kingdom to the south. Betty was previously on an island far to the south just outside of Ooo looking for leads, she is currently nearing the fire kingdom in terms of location).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lumen reached the southern border of the kingdom of fire before he even realised he had been walking for so long. He stared across the boiling river to the Isle of steam and started thinking to himself.

"Is it right for me to ask Finn to move onto the next Kingdom? I mean he was just reunited with his true love... will he even want to come with me?" The prince started to skim stones onto the steaming river watching as they disappeared into the steam before even stopping and sinking to the bottom.

"How can I expect him to come with me when the next place I want to visit is... her home? I mean I can't exactly go 'come on Finn you've seen your girl enough lets go see mine- wait what- She's not my girl! Stupid brain she doesn't even know me and I'm already imaging her being with me... What the actual junk you doofus!"

Lumen decided to fly around the sky for a little bit, Leaden had always taught him not to over use his powers and try to depend on his own body as much as he could but Lumen had always loved the feeling of the wind in his hair as he raced through the sky. He 'stood' still in mid-air looking further up as something had caught his eye it looked like a falling carpet. "Is that normal here? Does it rain carpets?" Almost to answer his next question he heard a scream as followed by the carpet was a person. Lumen raced down to catch the individual before they fell into the flow of burning water.

"Just a little further..." Lumen thought as he stretched to reach the person. His hand brushed against theirs before finally he wrapped his hand around theirs and lifted them away. He looked back just in time to see the sinking carpet burst into flames and disappear. "Yikes"

Once back at shore Lumen laid the person down. She appeared to be an adult woman whose skin was pinkish is its hue. She wore a cloak that seemed to be torn revealing her green turtle neck and trousers. She wore stylish oval glasses and had auburn hair. It was around this point Lumen noticed she seemed to be sweating a lot and her skin was turning redder. He quickly cast Shadow shield on her and was glad to see it had worked. He reached into his bag and got the bandages and medicine Phoebe had given him earlier. (Finn turned out to have a vial of Cyclops tears still so just cured himself quickly of his injuries) He started to tend to the wounds the woman had over her body, she was covered in cuts, scars and seemed to have been through great trauma. He found a cave nearby and decided to take her inside to let her rest.

Hours later

"Si... Sim... Simo... Simon where are you?" Betty yelled out as she awoke from her unconsciousness to find a strange looking person giving her a weird look.

"Who are you and why am I here" she immediately said before reaching in her pocket for her knife.

"Whoa calm down lady I just caught you when you fell from the sky, I was hoping you had some answers. You called out for a Simon, the only Simon I've met is the Ice King are you a friend of-"
