Marshalls POV:

Pink clouded my senses as I held Gumball in my arms. We have been laying here in silence for a while and he looked deep in thought.

"What are you thinking about?" I asked, while rubbing his arm.

"Thinking about what to do with Flame Queen. I'm not sure if Flame Prince heard yet." He huffed.

"Yeah I did want to have a word with her as well." I snarled.

Gumball turned and looked at me with a knowing gaze. His candy phone started ringing, so he stood, slipped on his pink boxers, and walked over to his desk to answer it.

"Hello?"

I put on my boxers and walked up to him, and listened in on the call.

"I was informed my mother did some vile things, and called to apologize." Flame Prince sounded from the other line.

"Marshall is fine now, but I think it's about time you claim the throne." Gumballs grip tightened on the phone.

"Of course. Wouldn't want her doing another stupid thing. See you around." The line fell flat.

Gumball seemed to relax a bit, so I wrapped my arms around his waist and held him close.

"See? Nothing to worry about now." I assured him.

"I suppose you're right. We should go visit Fionna, I'm sure she has heard by now and will want to make sure you're aligh---"

The door flew open and Fionna stormed in. Gumball squealed and wrapped a blanket around us.

"Glob I just found out Marshall! Are you ok?" Fi exclaimed.

"For one, yes I'm ok...For two, you should really knock before coming in here. If you would have barged in any sooner you may have seen...um....well...things ok?" I choked.

Her face seemed confused, but then Gumball wiggled his eyebrows and she gasped.

"Thanks for the image now burned into my brain Gumball." She spat, making Gumball giggle. I let out a huff and felt my face flush.

"That's it for me, I'm out." Cake coughed, before backing out of the room.

"Why don't you go in the kitchen and wait for us there?" Gumball asked.

"Fine." She grumbled, and made her way to the kitchen.

Gumball and I laughed and got dressed. He looked so adorable, I couldn't help but snake my hands down to his hips and pull him toward me. I leaned in close and brushed my lips across his slowly, looking into his eyes. A bright red blush spread on his cheeks and I smiled, kissing his lips lovingly. He sighed lightly and deepened the kiss. I knew I wouldn't be able to live without him.

"I love you." He spoke.

"I love you too." I smiled.

Well, Fionna will probably make us go adventuring.

Gumballs POV:

I'm still having doubts about the whole flame mess but I guess it will be fine. Marshall had my hand in his as he dragged me into the kitchen. Fionna sat in a chair at the far side of the room.

"It's about time. Let's go adventuring or something." She stated.

I know I was going to regret this somehow, but agreed anyway. Marshall had his umbrella as we headed out of the candy kingdom towards some mountains in the distance. It would have taken forever to walk, so Cake stretched us to the top of a mountain.

"I'm actually tired of carrying this stupid thing so..." Marshall said, transforming into a small bat.

"Whatever dude." Fionna rolled her eyes and she began looking around the moutain top. We were pretty high up. Marshall climbed into my shirt as a bat and I walked over to the edge.

"Aaa sure is pretty from up here." I stated, getting maybe a bit to close too the edge.

"Yeah just be careful." Fionna said, thinking about something.

I held Marshalls umbrella in my hand as I looked over Aaa. Somehow, I forgot my fear of heights until I looked down and my knees became weak. I fell forward off the edge screaming as I plunged to the bottom. Marshall must have heard because I felt him struggle out of my shirt, and by time he got out we were almost to the bottom. He began to shift back but wasn't able to fly up. I felt us hit the ground with a loud thump and an unbearable pain shot through my spine. My head had landed on Marshalls chest and I felt him clutch to my waist. He was screaming something but I couldn't hear. The pain in my back numbed and I struggled to look at Marshall. He had tears in his eyes, and was tightening his grip on me. I felt his fangs suddenly slip into my neck, and he was desperately trying to fill me with all the venom he could.

My thoughts began to slip, and my eyes began to shut. The last thing I saw was Marshalls tear stained face, then darkness.

Marshalls POV:

Was he...dead?

No, Gumball can't die...right? RIGHT?

I had gave him all the venom I had at the moment, and he was very still. My hands shook as I laid him on his back to check for a heart beat. There had to be one.

Leaning down I listened for a beat, for anything. I heard Fionna and Cakes screams, but that's not what scared me. What scared me was that...

There was no beat.

~~~~Don't worry it's not over! Stay with me here!~~~~
