Nightosphere

Marceline's P.O.V.

It'd been four days since I saw her last - in detention. She hasn't been to school. Not to sound like a stalker weirdo but I wanted to see her. I knew her parents were behind this and it made me itch thinking about what they could've said to her. I slumped down on the couch, (well not quite, more like hovering over it) eating the red out of an apple, when a portal just appeared in my living room. I wasn't as surprised as you might think because I knew it was my dad. In fact my face held the most unamused look you can imagine as he stepped out and smiled at me.

"Sweetheart! Long time no see!" He said and held out his arms, as if I was going to hug him.

Was he serious. I haven't seen him in 100 years, literally, and he just waltz into my living room expecting a hug? "Why are you here?" I ask, not in an angry tone just... bored sounding.

"Well I'm uh... I'm sorry I haven't been around in awhile. A 100 year war just ended about six months ago and I've been trying to clean up the nightosphere. You know how it goes?" He asked.

"Yeah..." I said slowly, not knowing where this conversation was going to.

"Yeah anyways I'm... getting old and pretty soon I'll need someone to take over the ol' throne." He leaned against the back of a chair and wiggled his eyebrows as it hit me.

"Y-you can't just eat the fries I bought, not speak to me for years, and then think I'm going to leave my life behind to be the ruler of another dimension. I have friends and a girlfriend here. I'm not-"

"A girlfriend?" Dad smiled a little, "I'm glad you found someone."

"Well it's complicated..." I corrected myself, "So... I can stay here?"

"Well uh..." He scratched the back of his neck and gave me an apologetic look, "You're my only child so you'll need to take over at some point. It's the rules."
