Sinners gather around and I'll tell you the tale of a demon who roams the lands empty mind and soul
And a human with too much of what he needs
What scene will unfold
Watch the heartless and the heartful clash
Who will survive this sorrowful tango
G...
Today I was just hanging around home playing some BMO. It was just one of those days, the ones where you feel content with just relaxing. No worries or hurries.
Cake was shopping today, she had asked if I wanted to come with her, but usually when she takes me with her she forces me into dresses. So I passed, saying I wasn't feeling too sharp. Some peace and quite is what I needed.
"Hey human, a little birdie told me you have been doing an awful lot of research on me."
I whipped my head around to see Marshall Lee floating above me. Wait.. who told him I'd been trying to find out more about him?!
My nose started to flush. Whenever I lie or get caught doing something it happens.
"I-I don't know what you're talking about. I have no interest in you." I lied.
He snorted obviously not fooled. Marshall stretched lazily in the air, letting out a yawn.
"You know I wasn't born yesterday right? I can tell when someone lies, their heart rate increases. Yours went up quite a bit."
Glob, I have been caught. This is really embarrassing, I'd never be a good spy.
"Fine you got me. Now who's this little birdie?" I questioned.
"I'm no snitch bunny blue." He said sticking his tongue out at me.
Ugh why was he so... so exasperating?
I rolled my eyes at him, much to his amusement.
"Don't get sassy with me young lady."
"Don't pull that tone with me grandpa, go back to your nursing home." I grumbled at him.
He faked hurt falling to the ground. "Oh! Oh no a grandpa? Me heavens has my immortality worn off!"
"Yea it has you got some wrinkles there pal." I told him pointing at his obviously unwrinkled face.
Shock washed over his face as he slapped at it, trying to feel the wrinkle. When he couldn't feel any he stopped, and glowered at me.
"Damn don't lie to me kid. I'm a vampire I can't check a mirror and see what I look like."
"That's why I said it." I said cracking a smile.
It was know knowledge that vampire's are very look orientated species. Even though they couldn't see themselves in mirrors. They usually could show up in pictures however so it wasn't too bad for them.
"Good one, good one." He said dryly.
I decided to take that moment to change the topic. "Soooo what are you even doing around here anyway?"
The vampire just kinda shrugged. "I mean I do own this house, and when you hear that the little human who is in it is practically stalking you I couldn't help but to drop by."
"I'm not stalking you! You're just mysterious and I was bored." I retorted puffing up my cheeks.
He raised up one of his eyebrows. "Mysterious?"
"Ya you are. For example one day you just show up, and then disappear.Barely anyone knows anything about you or just fears you."
"Well that's a good thing that ." He replied nonchalantly.
"What's a good thing?" I queried.
"It's a good thing that no one knows too much about me or fears me. They have a good reason to fear me anyway."
I plopped down on my couch. "How so? You seem fine to me."
Laughter pooled out of Marshall's mouth. He raised up a hand to wipe at pretend tears. Then clutched his stomach to finish his show.
"You...You the hero of Aaa think a actual spawn of hell like me doesn't seem that bad?"
Now that he said those words I could see where he was coming from. However I'm a hero, and a hero like me can see the good in anyone no matter how "evil" they are. It just isn't right to judge people on their past or where they came from.
There's a good in everyone, and when I look at Marshall I see a good in him too. It's too bad others, and most importantly he can't see that.
I spun around on my foot, and took a step towards him.
"There's a good in everyone Mr.Dark and Lonely. I'm going to show you that you have some good in you." I announced poking his chest.
"Mr. Dark and Lonely?" He said frowning.
I laughed. "Yes Mr. Dark and Lonely, that's your nickname until you see the good in yourself."
He shook his head in what seemed to be amusement and annoyance. He then looked down at me.
"Alright happy bunny, how are you going to show me that I have "good" in me."
Pausing I stroked my chin lightly. How would I? Slamacow I had an idea!
"You will hang out with! I'll teach you how to be good and heroic."
"Uhhhh... I don't think-" I shushed him quickly.
"It's been set you will now become my first student in Fionna The Hero's How To Be Heroic Academy, or FTHHTBHA for short." I yelled proudly.
He slapped his hand to his forehead. "Dude that acronym sucks."
I put my hands on my hips. "Quite grasshopper don't question your teacher."
Marshall Lee let put a sigh. "Alright fine, but right now I gotta go. How bout you teach me another time."
Yes! He's actually going to let me go along with my plan.
"Alright how about next week on a Monday from three to six pm?"
"Sure teach." He replied.
With that he proceeded to jump out my window. He lifted up from the ground, opened his umbrella, and flew off into the stunning sunset.
Until all that signified he had been there was the light scent of pine and strawberries. Hopefully Cake wouldn't pick up on the scent again or I was screwed.
Hey, hey new chappie! So yep Fionna has become Marshall's teacher, much to his amusement. There will be around two to three more chapters of Fionna being fourteen, and then she'll be fifteen. So stay tuned for the next gripping chapter of weirdness.
Questions of the day
