Lets Run!

*Sigh*

A sigh escape my lips when walked past the laughing vampire.

I grab an extra towel to put on my shoulder and get out of the bathroom.

"Not that I love when you were here but why are you doing here at this HOUR? You know during the day?"

The vampire stop laughing. I can't see her face because I was walking to my room to get some clothes.

"... I wanted to see how you are. You gave us a scared there. What exactly happened?"

... Shit... I didn't though for a answer in case someone is asking. I have to come with something, fast or...

"Sincerely I don't know either but you know,... my sense of what is normal for other people is already down to toilet, so it's not a big deal. This kind of stuff happen all the times."

.... I could just pretend I don't know anything and see what happens from here.

"Weird... but I think you are right... "

She didn't sound too convinced but is not important. I can just pretend that I don't know anything and it will not be a problem.... I hope.

I get in my room to look for some clothes letting the vampire in the living room. In my and Jake's room it don't exist a wardrobe but in the drawers and under Finn's bed I found some clothes lying on the floor or simply hanging in a corner. I just grabbed what I saw that looked like clothes and throw it in a pile.

Now that I gather them all, I see that here a lot of clothes... Most of them were weird like.... Why the heck is here a purple little dress... I just hope this is Jake's.

I start to look for some clothes in the messy pile of clothes that I made.

No.... No.... No... Another dress.... Duck costume.... Black suit.... Weird (possible cursed) mask.... No.... No.... I will not even ask..... No.... Aha! This is perfect and... lets take this... and this one and done!

Finally, I could find some decent clothes. I take out of the clothes pile some black jeans, blue navy T-shirt, black jacket and a pair of black high tops sneakers.

After I finished I could said that I didn't look bad at all.

"Hey bro! How are you fell... "

I hear Jake's voice and I turn around seeing a speechless Jake staring at me with his mouth slightly open.

Fuck! Did I do something wrong? Maybe the sudden change of outfit was not a good idea, but I don't want to wear the clothes the Original Finn wore. They are too embarrassing! I will NOT wear them! No sir! And if.... Oh wait.... I can deal with this later Jake is still staring at me.

"S-so, how do I look?"

*gulp* Lets just blame this on puberty and pray to work.

"Dude, I couldn't recognize you for a second! You look good, oh wait! Is about a GIRL? Tell me EVERYTHING!"

I felt incredible relief. I'm so happy that Jake don't think something is wrong. Still is a bit weird the usual Jake from the cartoons would grab my shoulders and shake me till I tell him everything but now he just stay put and stare at me. I think he is careful to not be too rough on me because I just came from the hospital.

... Finn is pretty lucky to have as a brother like him.

Anyhow, now I have to choose.

Tell Jake that all this outfit chance is about a girl or simply pull it off with "I grown up from the regular look and I tried something new."

Yeah, I better pull out the last one I don't want to look for a girl now. Like I said before, ALL this was a cartoon with characters with black dots for eyes, and wiggly arms and feets.... Is way too weird for me to have a relationship with anybody right now.

"I just felt I have to chance a little, you know. I'm 15 years old I can't just have always the same outfit."

"Jeez! Man, it was the time! I thought you will never do that! I always thought you will keep your looks like this till something traumatic happen and transform you in some kinda of badass or something."

I smile. Yeaaah, I saw the cartoon and this is not gonna happen. Maybe inside he became more mature but outside he will still keep his clothes.

Ok, now that I'm not dress like a main character from a kid cartoon anymore... Wait that's what exactly I am... Nevermind don't think about that.... Ok, where I was? Oh yeah!... AND I finally accept that.... you know ALL this is real and not just a weird hallucination or a crazy dream... I think,.... I have the same chances to everything to be the after effect from some VERY strong painkillers and now I'm in street dancing naked next to the trash cans.

I will tell you this, I had done more embarrassing stuff than this.

I look around the room for some papers and a pen.

Before to start all this "Adventure Time!" where I live free and full of friends and happy. I have to do a "I really have to do this" list.

I mean, don't get me wrong I want a happy life but... all these people who I know they need help or will die in the future. I can't just turn my back on them.

Again, don't get me wrong I don't have a hearth full of justice or something. I'm just a human, I was one before and I'm one now, and like any normal human, I can feel SHAME and GUILT.

If I don't even give at least a hand to the those people I will live my life knowing that I could help them but I still let them die.

I don't want a life full of guilt, I already died because I was mopping in front of my TV like the loser I was just because of a mistake I made. I don't want to turn back to that life. I will help them.

Ugh! Why I can't find some paper here! I don't know why but I even searched under the pillows!. When I lifted the two comfy pillows I found a, book that looked like a journal.

It was a normal book with, "Adventure Memories" wrote on the cover with a black marker.

I took the book and from pure curiosity I open it.

There are photos with, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, Marceline, BMO, and many more people, I didn't took a good look, I didn't even read what was written next to the pictures I just flick through the book. What was interesting that the book had some maps.

Why I didn't read or inspect the journal more. Well, Lets face it. I died. I lived my life. Kinda pathetic, shameful, and idiotic but I lived my life. I can't take a life because I didn't lived mine. So I better don't stick my nose too deep in Finn's personal life. I'm still planing to give his body back.

How I do that? I have no idea. The systen said the body was already dead when I took it. However, this is ADVENTURE TIME! How many times did this boy have his soul out of his body. And the dead part I can just go to the land of the dead and put him back.... or something else.

Even if it means to lived in the land of dead my eternity. Heh.... I was right when I spoke with that God. Even if I didn't have any sexual relationship with any of my clients or girls I lied and date women for money who I didn't even like. My list of sins is already too long to ask for forgiveness, so I have to pay for them. In a way or another.

However, if I go now the story will go like it used. All this people will die and all these horrible things will happen. So if I go I better give this body some "upgrades". I know Finn will use them for good.

I hope this will make it up for taking his body. Let's think about this later. Even if I don't look at the writings around the pictures, the maps are a bit interesting.

After I look more closely the Maps have the locations of the dungeons in the area. Some of them have Black Skulls on them, this must means they are dangerous. I better not get close to them.

This is perfect! Now I can just go there instead to search through forest and get lost. I usually get lost in my own house! In a (possible) magic forest I will be lost forever, or/and dead.

Ok, let's do that! I take the book and ready to go outside.

I go gown to the living room where I see Marceline sleeping on the couch.... Ok, more floating above the couch but, you know what I'm saying.

She was that tired and she still came during the day to check on me. I smile and I go back to my room where I take a blanket, I go back in the living room and I cover her with the blanket.

Pfft... She look kinda funny floating, covered with the blanket made of fur. I go down in the kitchen where Jake was still eating some junk food.

"I go outside don't wait for me in case I get kidnapped by a evil king or made a king, again."

Jake look at me with a smile and show me a thumbs up.

I was to get out but...

"Wait! You don't take a sword with you? Last time you didn't take your sword and see what happened. Children these days should....

When he gave me the weird scolding he used his power to stretch his arm. I didn't hear the rest of what he said because.... because...

"....Joshua's sword... "

For a moment I forgot how to breath. The red metal that was shining like a ruby. The shape of a holy cross..... this is the real sword. Not a fake but the REAL DEAL. I think everybody who saw the Adventure Time wanted at least to hold it once.

The sword made with demon blood by Joshua, Jake and Finn father.

I take the sword with trembling hands. My hands drop a little because of the weight, but I still keep the sword in my hands.

It sure more heavy than the toy one.... *cough* I mean.... *cough*, *cough* Is not like I bought a toy sword exactly that looked exactly like this one from eBay for 50.99 bucks. No! Nope! Not me... Nuh-huh! No sir! I would never dare to do this!....

Ok I did it. But I used it just once!..... Then even if nobody watched me I felt like die of shame. I put it back in its box and hide it under my bed. I never touched it again. I swear! Even now I'm sure is still under my bed. UNTOUCHED!!!

....

Holy shit! If the police inspect my house for evidence or other reasons they would surely search under my bed and they will open my box! Now I definitely can't go back to my world now. I don't care if I end up stuck in the land of dead. I will never go back! Never!

".... My dark past.... "

"Huh!? Bro what you're talking about?"

Jake wake me up from my shameful memory lane. I grab the sword from the handle and I inspect it.

Yep! It looks even cooler in reality. If I ever see that god. I'm going to kiss him... or her l..... Who cares! Even if he/she don't have lips I'm gonna kiss that god.

"Ok dude, you freak me out, now."

Jake voice wake me up again. I look up and I smile, all this excitement didn't stop me from throwing a satisfactory lie.

"I never realized but Dad's sword is so cool!"

Jake look at the sword and grin he nod and look back in my eyes.

"Yeah, you right, this sword is almost cool like a our father, no?"

I smile I make a little wave to Jake and get out with the sword and the book.

I get out and I see the land. The sun touched my skin and the wind was blowing. I stab the ground with the sword so it can stay put, and I open the book looking at the map with the closest dungeon.

Ah! Here is it! Let's see... The sun is in that way,... So thats means north is in that way, so I have to walk for a couple of kilometers and turn right at this thing that look like a... rock?

I don't think I was more grateful that my mother send me to become a scout when I was younger... Maybe just that time when one of my clients drug me and tie me to the bed. I could untied the rope and ran the hell out there before... Ok... Lets not think about it was in the past and I can't do anything to chance it.

I smile and I put the book in the jacket, and I grab the sword and start to run. Wow! I was pretty fas.... Woah!

*THUD*

*CRASH!*

Holy shit! I woke up upside down with my back stick to the tree trunk. I just hit my face with my knees... This will leave a mark... But before....

Holy shit!! I just ran normal maybe a bit faster than usual... then... then!... I... I was like that vampires from Twilight! Running so fast that everything around me was a blur of colors!

... Then I tripped over a little branch, tumple like a wheel and hit this tree ended up standing upside down with my ass almost touching my face and a speechless face on.

Holy shit! I know I said it 3 times but I have all the rights to do so! I just ran like a Twilight vampire! I never saw the movie but I think everybody know about it. Even after so many years.

I got up and I look around me.

Perfect! I'm lost again!

*Sigh*

I start to climb the tree I hit a second ago. When I go in the top I look around me and I see the tree house.

Fortunately I didn't go too far from the tree house. I smile and I jump off the tree.

*THUD!*

I landed flat on my feet and I made a loud sound. This should be painful especially because I jumped from the top of a full grown tree but I didn't feel anything. It felt like I jumped just a couple of centimeters not meters. This is sooooo cool!

No! Concentrate! Don't be a typical MC! Concentrate! Take the ****** book and take another look at the map in case you miss something!

I take out the book and I look again at the map.

Ok, lets do it again! I take a deep breath close my eyes and concentrate.

I know fuck about superpowers and any other abnormal abilities I possible have, but if TV teach me anything is that when you wake up with superpowers the best way to control them is to concentrate.

That's it. Concentrate. That's why the side characters are always more powerful than the MC because they are smart and have patience and the MC is usually dump and reckless.

Now that I finished the boring explanation.

Let's run!
