It was Finn's 17 birthday, or at least it would be once he woke up. However, this dream seemed to never end. He saw himself floating in space, above Earth. The gorge of Ooo, a huge crater created during the Mushroom War. It was famous for nuclear creatures and waste. He and Jake had only dared to adventure it a few times before. He saw a green comet float by. Finn felt it in his gut. This was not only a Catalyst Comet, but the one that gave birth to the Lich. He followed it down to Earth. It hit a random patch of soil, and from the soil, a horned man rose from the ground.

"The Lich."

A voice spoke to Finn, a male voice that echoed. It felt so familiar to Finn, but he couldn't come up with a name. The Lich smiled. It walked into the nearby human village, Finn still following. It looked upon the humans and frowned. It lifted his hand, and a huge wave of green covered the village. When Finn opened his eyes again, the city was destroyed.

"What," he asked, "the HELL is this?"

"This," said the voice, "is my mistake."


Finn woke up in the cold sweat. He quickly brushed his teeth, got dressed, and prepared for his birthday. Well, technically, it was his Gotcha Day, as he has been adopted. Nobody truly knew when he was born.

He saw his brother, Jake, and BMO there of course. The guests visiting included CB and Phoebe, despite Finn's history with them. Bonnibell appeared, wearing a more casual outfit that include a sweat shirt, jeans, and a ponytail. Close by, Marceline floated on the air with her protective hat, playing her Axe-Bass guitar. Jermaine danced with the music, along with Flambo. Canyon made an appearance as well. They invited Ice King, this time making sure that they sent an E-Mail. Gunter, despite the revaluation of him being Orgalorg, was also there. Gunter appeared to have lost his memories from his previous incarnation.

After cake, which involved a gigantic cake that all the girls had baked, and bacon pancakes, courtesy of Jake, it was time for Finn to open his presents. From Jake, he was given some dating guide. PB got him a new phone. Marceline gave him a new flute. Jermaine gave his adopted brother a new backpack, this one being enchanted and endless. Simon and Gunter gave Finn an assortment of potions and ingredients. FP and Cinnamon gave Finn double citizenship, which made him a citizen of the Flame Kingdom. Even after These gifts, there was a huge box, which nobody claimed. It was not marked, but there was a note.

"Before I start, happy birthday. You don't know me. The one and only time I ever saw you, you were to young to remember. I am one who knows of your dreams and their origin, but I must not explain them to you as of now. In this box, I have a sword, book, and a journal. Your dreams are messages, notes to make you grasp a concept. The notebook is for you to record the dreams. Once you have gone through all of the messages, read the book, and you shall put the pieces together. The sword is for you to battle. We shall meet soon."

Finn ,mystified, opened to box to reveal the promised objects. The journal was normal, the book didn't look like much, but the sword was amazing. It actually glowed, and as Finn swung it in the air to impress the party guest, it left behind a trail of light.

In the Candy Kingdom, the legal age for drinking was 17, but Finn got so destroyed that night that PB considered changing that law.
