Disclaimer: I own nothing of Adventure time.

Hi you guys. ANS Is back :)

After Cold Dead and In love, I didn't think there was much left for me to write for Adventure Time. Then I watched that episode, you know, where the Ice King captures all those princesses and makes then play musical instruments, and I thought, hey, if Ice King can't catch any luck in his universe, why not try the other universe?

So I attempted it.

Ice King is perfectly able to switch universes (kept that part totally ambiguous, so you guys can make of it what you want), and he's done it many times, but never laid eyes on such a beautiful girl before. And before he really knows who that girl's counterpart is, he decides to make her his bride. Finn, Jake, Cake, Gumball, and Marshal must save Fionna from being married off to the Ice King; but can they make it in time?

Ladies and Gentlemens, I present, Bride!

1: First Laid My Eyes On You.

Among the scattered debris of the royal chambers and amidst the chaos of two enemies in a fight to the death, he saw her.

Sweat coursing off her forehead that smeared her eye makeup, blonde hair in a frenzied mess, and once eye-catching white dress with gold lace torn to shreds by the unexpected confrontation, she was still the most beautiful princess he had ever laid eyes on.

He had to have her.

"You got me to show up in a dress!" even near ear-splitting volumes, her voice mimicked the melodies of the angels, "and a pur—the purse! My sword!"

He watched silently from the open window of the room as his princess ran back to the discarded purse, narrowly avoiding a barrage of Icicles traveling at fifty miles an hour towards her head, and pull out the weapon, sword shining brightly and giving off a deadly aurora to the observing king. It didn't dishearten his sister, however; she simply laughed, transforming his princesses only chance at victory into a heavy ball of pure ice, which, in a feat not even the Ice King would've thought of, she swung at his sister, whaling on her so viciously that he could hear the bows from across the room.

'I've never seen a creature so elegant in her fighting style', he gushed, as his beautiful princess used her Ice Ball weapon to free an…oddly familiar teenager from his Ice cocoon on the ceiling, 'so daring in her escapades, so determined to win…'

The ice that had fallen from the cocoon trapped his sister to the floor, where she lay, seemingly vanquished, as his princess and the pink boy in her arms made a daring jump all the way to the floor, sending the ice and snow into a frenzy as she fell. All was quiet; even the boy in her arms gazed up at his princess in awe, for it seemed she was made of steel and iron then just a regular girl. She let him go, and as he was ready to gush his thanks and gratitude towards the heroine, the door swung open.

"What's goin' on in here—"

Even Ice King had to raise an eyebrow at the giant, pink bowed talking cat the burst in the door, taking in the entire chaos around her and coming to a false conclusion; she jumped at the pink boy, eyes ablaze and screaming in anger as she landed on his face.

"Don't you touch her!"

As the boy ran to the corner and his princess comforted what was most likely her pet talking cat, he could see the ice that covered his sister stir, and before he had a chance to warn his princess of the danger, his sister shot an Ice attack, nearly freezing the cat in place. But as she shot the final beam, his princess launched her attack, sending the magical Tiara flying and her powers rendered useless.

"And this is for yankin' my heart-guts!" With one final blow, she sent his sister rocketing towards the floor, chest heaving and breath labored in exhaustion from the excruciating fight. He didn't need to see any more after this; the victor was obvious, and what step he should take next, was obvious.

The Ice King turned, ready to wait on the abandoned balcony until the ball was over and his princess decided to leave, when he heard her musical voice through the window. He turned back, listening intently.

"No way, man. Not interested," he peered through the window as his princess sighed and removed her hand from the pink boy's face, most likely rejecting whatever offer he proposed, "I think the reason I have all these guy friends, and not boyfriends, is because, I don't really wanna date any of em. I'll know what I want, if, and when, it ever comes along."

If and when it ever comes along, hm? The Ice King pondered the sentence, finger tapping thoughtfully against his bearded chin, when an idea struck him. An idea so grand, it brought a smile to his withered face, felt the excitement bubble in his stomach like soda pop. And suddenly, he couldn't wait for the stupid ball to be over.

'Good things come to those who wait,' he reminded himself, taking one last peek at his newest obsession as she strode out the door, cat in one hand and pink boy in another, 'and boy, do I have a good thing coming my way.'

He had started visiting the land of Aaa about two years ago, when he was in that crazy discovering Alternate Universes phase, right after he dropped the World Peace phase and right before the Kiss Era. He had finished his portal made out of science, magic and ice the same day Gunter had forgotten to eat one of his fish for din-din, and accidentally left it in front of the portal. As he went to tweak some flaws with the dimension swapper, he didn't notice the fish in front of his foot, and as a result, slipped in. Ice King couldn't say he remembered what Universe Traveling was like, but when he woke up, he was in the exact same place, with his snow-monsters, penguins, and gender-swapped persona

The two bonded almost instantly, telling stories about how many princesses (or princes) they captured on a daily basis, what their plans for world domination were (obviously to freeze it in ice) and how irritating Finn and Jake (Fionna and Cake in her universe) were when they interrupted and ruined perfectly good plans. And soon enough, they made almost daily visits to the other's universe; sometimes Ice Queen would come over and chat, and most of the times Ice King would just come over to vent; so finding his sister battling the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life had been a complete surprise, but definitely not a waste of time. He would talk to his sister about it later. For now, he needed to get his hands on the girl he knew he would love the first time he laid eyes on her.

After the ball had let each guest on their merry way, it was simple following his princess home, as Ooo and Aaa's landscapes were exactly the same down to the smallest flower, though the colors may have been a little off. He watched her, elegant even when looking like a hot mess, walk down a dark, unprotected part of the woods, to her abode.

"What an exhausting night, Cake," she sighed heavily, dropping the cat to the forest floor, "I'm so frickin' tired." She plopped on the ground, probably for a quick breather, setting her yellow hair on the leaves.

"Oh please, girl," the cat rolled her eyes, using her teeth to grasp the girl by the collar of her dress, and drag her across the ground, "we're almost home; when we get there, you can sleep till tomorrow night if you want."

His princess smiled dreamily, yawning and standing on her feet, "I can't wait."

'Neither can I, my sweet,' Ice King smiled, baring his long white teeth, and hovered over the pair.

"Neither can I."

Though the Ice King had whispered the words, his plan worked perfectly; the princess heard his voice instantly, fists balled and blonde hair whipping around, looking for the intruder. Her cat hissed, ears flared and listening to the forest intently.

"What was that, Cake?" his princess, alarmed and unarmed whispered to the cat. Deliberately, the Ice King flapped his beard with more oomph than before, and broke a small branch off of a tree nearby. She avoided the fallen tree limb, crying out in frustration, and gritting her teeth.

"Show yourself, coward!" she challenged to the sky, "Come out and fight like a man! I'll take you!"

Finally, he poised himself for the kill. As quickly as his beard could manage, he swooped in like a bat out of hell, nabbing his princess under the armpits and lifting her up, to which she screamed in alarm, scratching and kicking at her assailant blindly. He didn't bother turning back as he angered cry of the cat reached his ears, but when he felt claws rake his knee, he took the princess in one arm, using the other to blast the stupid animal with an ice beam.

"On the contrary my dear," he giggled, suddenly as giddy as a love stricken schoolgirl when he managed eye contact with his princess, "It is I who will be taking you."

She didn't seem as giddy, however, "Let me go, you old freak!" she flailed, screeching bloody murder as they were lifted higher and higher into the night sky, "Cake! Cake go get help!"

But the animal made no response. And as she looked down, Ice King feared the threat of tears of pain from his beloved when she realized the cat was trapped in a block of ice, frozen in mid battle-cry. His princess ceased her flailing, as she would risk falling to her death from the height they had achieved in the short time, and let him carry her silently. They flew over the familiar landscape of Aaa, past the Bubblegum castle and the forest, to his sister's territory; when his princess caught the sight of the Ice mountain, she halfheartedly twisted, trying to escape his grip. When she understood it was completely pointless, she stopped, switching her thoughts.

"She'll be alright, won't she?"

The Ice King snorted, "Your cat will be fine, my dear; the spell I cast only lasts for an hour," the answer seemed to satisfy her, as she breathed out a sigh of relief, "more than enough time for you to get acquainted to your new home, my dear."

"New home?" she repeated tensing again as the Ice King held up his hand, making a light blue doorway-looking structure appear from thin air, at the opening of the Ice Mountain, "What do you mean, New Home? I like my old one just fine, thanks!"

"Oho, you silly, silly princess, you," the old man chuckled, regarding the girl as if she were a naïve child, which she didn't much appreciate, "how else would we be able to be together as husband and wife?"

His princess froze completely, as if he had just cast a frost spell on the girl. Eyes distant and unfocused, she didn't even respond as the Ice King suddenly resumed his flying at a much faster speed, topping forty miles an hour, and heading straight for the doorway at the entrance of the Ice Cave.

"Hold on, my dear," he whispered, tightening his grip. His princess said nothing; simply stared into Lumpy Space, "this may be a bumpy ride."

His speed topped forty; fifty, and yet his princess made no move to resist, still staring blankly at thin air.

It wasn't until the final kilometers, where the blue was so bright it burned his eyes and the speeds sent her hair and dress into a frenzy, she screamed.

"I'm getting married?!"

The Ice King said nothing; he simply laughed as she screamed, and his giddy laughter and her screams of terror reverberated into the night air long after they left.

First chapter is finite!

Hope you guys review, I really want to know how I did.
