A Grey Hearted Vampire

Chapter Seven

It's been two weeks since Marshall was locked in that chamber. Ugh, you wanted to go down in that dungeon and kick gumwad in his gumballs.

(Okay, that part is pretty funny. XD)

Finn and Jake have been helping you with your anger management.

"Cmon! Kick it HARDER!" Finn yells as you flying knee a scarecrow in the face.

"Nice!" Jake yells, throwing a sword towards you. You catch it by the hilt and run towards the fallen scarecrow, stabbing it square in the chest.

"Awwwww yeah! That was flippin awesome!" Finn high fives you and Jake goes inside to make meatloaf.

"Thanks for helping me with this Finn, it's really helping." You say, practicing your swordplay.

"Aw, no prob. Homies help homies." Finn says, slicing apples with his golden sword.

"Sorry, I've got band practice. Thanks for everything!" You say as you run off.

Marshall Lee's POV

I can hear and see, but I can't move. A stupid smile frozen on my face. I want to get out of here, but more than anything, I want to see (your name). When she roundhoused Gumball, I almost laughed, but I realized I was in a much worse situation. Bubblegum has been working for weeks trying to free me, but nothing she does works, my energy drains whenever she touches the machine and I black out, dreaming about escaping this purple goop and flying through the night sky with (your name) at my side.

Your POV

"Marcy? You in here?" you call through the cave.

"Yeah! C'mere!" she yells back.

You are now the lead singer of Marcy's band, "The Scream Queens". Marceline is dressed in a red tank top with black jeans and brown knee high boots. Fionna is sitting at her drum kit in her bunny hat, blue t-shirt and denim jeans, and somehow, you convinced cake that she should play the keyboard.

"Everyone ready? oh wait, where's Peebles." Marcy said, Fionna gave her a stern look. You knew where she was. She was in her lab in the candy kingdom, trying to get Marshall out of a weird chamber filled with purple goop.

You swallowed tears and just fought through the sadness that pinched at your heart. "Lets get started." you suggest.

Fionna starts drumming. Marceline plucks the strings on her bass and Cake is banging out some sick tunes on her keyboard. When the time came, you started to sing.

(P.S. the song is called Breakeven)

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathin'

Just prayed to a god that I don't believe in.

Well I got time and he got fredooooomm,

Cuz when a heart breaks no it don't break even, even, ohhhh.

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me, was always you and,

What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and your okay?

I'm fallin' to piiiieces, yeah, I'm fallin' to piiiieces, yeah.

They say bad things happen for a reason,

But no wise words gon' stop the bleedin'

Well, he moved on and I'm still bleediiin' cuz when a heart breaks no it don't break even, even, ohhhh,

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me, was always you, and,

What am I supposed to say when your all choked up but your okay?

I'm fallin' to piiiices, yeah, I'm fallin to pieces, yeah.

(I only used parts of the song, so yeah.)

Your surprised that your crying after singing that song. It just kinda reminded you of Marshall. Cake stretches over to you and pats you on the back.

"It's okay baby, Marshall will be back, I know it."

"Yeah, okay, lets get started on the next song." you suggest.

(This is my own original song so don't hate.)

I have seen our world fallllll, to pieces.

The skies are grey, and never blue.

I had hopes and dreams to start a lifeeeeee,

With you.

Tossin' and turnin' cause you can't let me beeeeee free.

But you just gotta,

Let go, let me see the rays of sun the fallin snow,

Just gotta, let go, I can be free and you should know.

I will not stand for allllll you've done.

You know it's wrong, can't be with you.

My heart, it aches but, I gotta let,

Youuuuuuuuu go.

I wish that you would do the same for me, just,

Let go, let me see the rays of sun the falling snow,

Just gotta, let go, I can be free and you should know.

If I was to leave, what would you do? what would you do?

If I were to stay, be captured by you? What would you do?

But you just gotta, let go.

"Well done ladies!" Marceline high fives everyone as they pack up and head home. You end up running ahead of everyone, and when you arrive home, you cry until your throat is raw.

Because the last song you sang was the one Marshall sang as he flew away that one night.
