"(Shortened version of your name? what are you doing here?" Marshall asked, grinning. You blush and gumball turns a deep crimson.

"Marshall! listen, you have a job to do! just, ugh, get in the chamber." PG grumbled.

"Woah! relax gumwad." Marshall said, floating into the chamber.

"Gumball! the chamber isn't ready for testing! you might kill him!" Bubblegum screeched, pressing buttons on the outside if the chamber.

But it was too late.

A thick purple liquid began to pour out of the tubes coming out of the roof, filling the chamber.

"Marshall!" you yelled, running over to the chamber.

"It's okay." he mouthed before his head was covered in the purple gloop.

"GUMBALL!!! What have you done!?" you screamed, roundhouse kicking gumball. He fell on his back and Bubblegum screamed.

"I had to test it. Someone had to do it! I chose the one person in these two kingdoms, Ooo and Aaa that no one cared about!" Gumball yelled, trying to get up. You punched him in the face.

"I cared about him you Idiot! I-I loved him. And now look what you've done!" you said, crying. Gumball looked shocked.

"Guards! take him away!" bubblegum ordered as several Banana Guards piled into the room and grabbed gumball by the arms.

"You can't do this! I have the same royal stature as you do Bonnibel!" gumball yelled, struggling to free himself from the grip of the guards.

"Yes I can! you are in Ooo right now. You rule the candy kingdom in Aaa! Technically, I can arrest you.". Bubblegum said, crossing her arms. The guards pulled gumball away.

"Marshall..." you say meekly towards the glass chamber. His face is frozen in a scared smile. He told you, it was okay, and now he was frozen.

"Bubblegum, can you, can you unfreeze him?" You snuffled.

Bubblegum looks at you with sad eyes and then replies slowly.

"To be honest, I don't think so."

"What?"

"Well, gumball designed the thing. He never told me what it was for, just said it would give royals power." Bubblegum said, adjusting her glasses.

You fell on your knees and started to cry. Bubblegum sat beside you and hugged you.

"Don't worry. I can figure this out. I'm pretty much a genius, so I'm pretty sure I can figure this out." PB smiled.

"Thanks Peebles." you said, standing and wiping your face with the back of your hand.

"Fionna! it's me!" you call, while knocking on the door to the treehouse. Fionna opened the door, her hair down.

"Oh! hey! I haven't seen you in a while! come on in!" Fionna smiled. You tried to smile back but you just couldn't.

"Hey baby! you hungry? I'm makin BLT's!" Cake said, you could smell bacon cooking in the kitchen.

"Yeah, starving!" you reply, sitting on the couch.

"So, what's up?" Fionna asks, taking a bite out if her sandwich.

"Umm, nothin." you say, your voice cracks and Cake walks over to you with worried eyes.

"Hon, are you sure?" Cake asks, sitting next to you.

You start to cry, putting your head in your hands.

"Honey cakes? what's the matter? Fi, go grab some tissues." Cake said, putting her arm around you.

"He's gone." You barely say without choking.

"What? Who's gone?" Cake asks as she wipes away the tears falling down your cheeks.

"Marshall! Gumball froze him in some purple goop and Bubblegum can't even get him out!" You yell.

Fionna walks in the room with a box if tissues, and sits down beside you, grabbing your hand.

"It's gonna be okay, Bubblegum is crazy smart. She'll get him out." Fionna half smiles.

You're not so sure.
