To The Other Side (Fiolee)

5. Feel The Flames

Fionna walked along the charred roads of the Underworld. This place certainly gave her the chills. A dark aura swallowed up the place making her shudder. Each step she took made a hollow echoing sound, and every exhale of her breath sounded louder and louder. 

Creatures of differing shapes and sizes scurried around her, going about their merry way. Some were adorned with horns and claws while other had many eyes and rows of teeth. 

One of the worst ones she saw had fifteen red eyes and five rows of gnashing teeth. It had walked awfully close to her almost giving her an anxiety attack. 

She even swore she heard it call out to her in whispers. However when she turned around it had vanished. That shook her a little bit, but she knew she'd encounter scarier stuff along her journey.

Honestly at this point she was super confused. The map was messy and she couldn't even figure out where the hell she was supposed to go. Fionna did think about asking one of the more human looking creatures... but she didn't know who was safe or not. Sure she had her gifts, but how effective are they? 

At this point she was getting a bit desperate. There was no way she was going to stay here for the rest of her life, but it felt like she might have too. Fate hadn't even given her good instructions. Old loopy lady.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was official... Fionna was definitely lost. You see after traveling a little bit she got hungry, so she looked at the map and found a place that had some grub. When she got there she grabbed some odd looking meal and left. But since it was so damn crowded her map had fallen out somewhere.

Meaning she was now lost. There wasn't anything she could do. Even worse was that she felt something or more like someone was watching her. 

She could feel it's eyes boring in to her. Scrutinizing her every move. That's totally not creepy....

Cursing Fionna plopped down on a dead tree stump. 

"Hey baby what's shaking." A suave voice said.

Fionna didn't have time for bull shit today, so she ignored the person. 

"Awe little mama why the cold shoulder?" The masculine voice tried again. 

Sighing she looked up to see a guy before her. A guy made of flames, hooh boy. He was pretty well dressed and looked rich. His hair was in a flaming mohawk which framed a shining red jewel. Now he was hot, no pun intended, but Fionna just didn't care.

Fire boy had a look about him she just didn't like. Maybe it was because he seemed to cocky or it was the exceptional amount of lust in his eye. Either way she wasn't interested. 

"Look uh I don't really have time for this right now. I have a urgent task, and I have to get going." 

The fire boy frowned at her. "You sure? If you want I can get us some drinks, we can relax, unwind...."

"I-I gotta go, see ya." Fionna squeaked nervously. 

This fucker wanted into her pants. How about no. The blonde stood up, briskly walking away from him.

 Heat started to emit from him, no one had ever refused him!

He closed in on her. "I mean no harm girl. Look let's start over I'm Phobeus, heir of the fire demons, it'd be an honor for me to get you a drink."

"I'm fine thank you." She asserted clenching her jaw in annoyance at his actions. 

Phobeus's eyebrows furrowed in anger. Fionna shook her head, obviously this boy was a stuck up baby.
