Taming the king

Chapter 13

Flame prince pov
 
I had just told her why I had just decided to spill my heart guts basically. But I kind of left out a small detail. I didn't just do it because she gets distracted by treasure. I had also done it then because I didn't know when I would be able to see her next If I didnt. I guess I didn't want to feel like I was going to be left behind again.
   I was distracted from my thoughts when I heard a loud poof and saw some dust/smoke falling on the ground.
"Fionna you alright?"
"Yeah I should be." She said wiping her eyes. Dam I got distracted what  happened , did someone booby trap the chest?
A loud noise went off and across the room a really well hidden secret door started to open. I saw one of those goblin monster things walk out. It looked almost exactly like the hologram but it was very obvious that this was no mere hologram. There was one difference though, it was twice the size of the hologram outside.
  I looked back over to Fionna ready to fight it but she was just staring at it with a dazed look on her face. Like she was confused about it being there.
"Fionna what's wrong."
She turned away from it and started to walk down the steps but tripped and fell down them throwing her sword in the process. She landed a few feet away from me. She didn't look like she was doing so well.
    I turned her over and said. "Come on Fionna you have to snap out of it ok."
    I looked up and saw that the monster still had a ways to go before we had to worry about it. Glob that thing moved slow.
   I looked back down at Fionna and heard here laugh. Why was she laughing in this situation did she not know what was going on anymore!
I tried to move her but I had to stop because I was to worried. And of course when that happens im no longer able to control my flames temperature. I could already see  a few burn marks start to appear on her arms.
   What was I suppose to do then! I needed to move her away from the monsters path so I can fight it without her possibly getting hurt but I can't touch her because I'm to mad/worried and will only end up burning her badly.
    That's when I got an idea!
I crotched down by fionna and said.
"I don't know if you can still hear me but I'm gonna go distract that monster and try to lure it away ok. But just please be alright, and hang on in till I get back."
I ran away from fionna and directly into the monsters path.
"Hey big, dumb and ugly this way."
I said running while shooting fire balls at his head.
I looked annoyed and took the bait. That's right just follow me.
I continued to provoke it till I got this thing back on the side of the room it started on. It felt like it took forever to get it back over here.
But it was a safe enough distance  from Fionna. I changed my shape so I no longer was in my humanoid form but so I was a flame on the ground. I started circling around him so he was trapped in a ring of fire. Now that I had him stuck and unsure of where to go I raised the flames walls so that they were encasing him. I kept him there and burnt him to a crisp. I came back down and reasumed my normal form.
    Now that the immediate threat had passed I looked back at the pile of ash and realized how brutally I had killed him and almost felt a little bad but I quickly shook off the thought and went back over to Fionna. I believed I was calm enough now to touch her. I grabbed the treasure without really paying mind to what it was and put it into fionna discarded bag. I knew I would never hear the end of it if I didn't when she woke up.
      I threw one of the straps over my shoulder and went back to fionna. I saw she had passed out and I could feel myself start to worry. I had to remind myself that if I was going to help her I had to be calm. I picked her up and carried her through the dungeon. Glad we had already cleared out the enimies before hand.
    I got back to the entrance and saw that it was raining. I got a little annoyed. It just had to be rain didn't it. I put fionna down and looked through her backpack but didn't find a single umbrella anywhere.
"Well great this is gonna hurt."
I picked Fionna back up and went out into the rain. I usually tried to avoid these situations and would usually just wait out rain storms. But that wasn't an option I felt I could afford to take. I needed to get Fionna help as soon as possible.
  I continued trying my best to ignore the pain that the rain was causing. I almost laughed At least I didn't have to worry about acadently burning Fionna anymore.
*small time skip*
I felt like I was almost there but I couldn't tell because the rain had increased so it was a little harder to see things. I just needed a small break. I saw a treeline that looked like it would give both of us enough cover. I just needed to escape this storm even just for a few minutes.
I got there and set Fionna down with her head resting on my lap. She still hadn't woken back up. I didn't know why and that was really starting to worry me. I just really hoped she would be ok. I took her pulse it wasn't really strong but it wasn't weak at the moment either so that good. The cuts, bruises and burns concerned me though. I couldn't do anything about them at the moment.
   I felt terrible because I was the reason she was like this right now it was my idea to go to that stupid dungeon.
   I saw her start to shiver. Dam I laughed the one thing I'm good at I can't even do right now because I'm soaked to the bone. I sat her in my lap and held her close trying to keep her at least a little warmer.
   I started to get a little tired but I had to stay awake just incase. I almost fell asleep when I heard a noise. It sounded like people. They got closer and I just hoped they were friendly. It looked like they were just going to pass us when I heard one say I recognize that smell.
   They turned around and came right up to us. "Who are you and can you help us." I asked.
  "I'm Mark and that's Damion but I think the better question is who are you and why do you have Fionna with you."
  "I'm one of her friends how do you know her."
  "We met yesterday but that's not important you both look like your in bad shape. What happened." Damion asked.
  I basically summarized everything that happened and told them they offered to help us. I was surprised considering they barely know Fionna aperntly. But Damion offered to take Fionna home. I was just gonna wait the rest of the storm out in the tree line till I heard mark speak up again.
   "You don't look like your in that great of shape either. Here let me help you home. He said opening an umbrella an offering me his hand.
I smiled and accepted his help. I sometimes forgot that not everyone's like most of the people from the fire kingdom.
