Description
Chapter 13- Scorching"Fionna…" The human girl let out a pained moan and squeezed her eyelids tightly. "Fionna."
Bright lights beamed into her vision as Fionna blinked her eyes open, painfully rubbing her head. She winced as she sat up, her back sore and bruised.
"Fionna." She tensed as a voice called her name and she looked around the empty grasslands. "Over here, Fi." She quickly turned to the source of the voice and saw Flame Prince smiling despite still being half frozen.
"Oh Glob, Flame Prince! Are you ok?" Fionna said with concern and helped the frozen prince to his feet. He winced at his numb body.
"Uh, yeah. You could say that." Flame Prince hissed in pain. Fionna looked at him with concern. "I'm ok, really. More importantly, are you?" He asked gesturing to her bandaged shoulder. Blood caked the outside of the bandage.
"I'm fine. I've had way worse." Fionna said laughing it off. Flame Prince looked at her unconvinced.
"No way, you need to see a doctor or something!" Flame Prince exclaimed.
"Well first we need to get you out of there." Fionna said putting her hand on her cheek, trying to figure out a way to get the prince unfrozen with complete disregard for her own wounds.
"Fionna, you been out for hours! Look! The sun's even down!" Fionna looked up and noticed the dark sky. It was still daylight when she broke into Ice Queen's castle. "I mean, you've been knocked out long enough for my head to melt free from the warmth of the sunlight!" Flame Prince said looking up at the night sky.
"W-well…All the more reason I should wait for you!" Fionna stammered with a blush. Flame Prince looked at her with a confused expression. "I mean, what if I pass out on the way there? I don't think your mom would like that." Fionna reminded. Flame Prince winced at the thought.
"Alright, alright." Flame Prince sighed with defeat. There was a moment of silence before FP spoke up. "Well, any ideas on how to get me out of here?" He asked. Fionna tapped her chin deep in thought. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she excitedly turned to him.
"I have an idea!" She grabbed her sword from the grass and took a stance.
"F-Fionna? Wh-what are you doing?" Flame Prince shook.
"Stay absolutely still." Fionna said. She positioned her sword over the ice on his chest.
"Wait what are you-?" Flame Prince screamed in horror. Fionna brought up her sword over her head and readied herself. "WAIT! Wait, wait, wait stop!" Flame Prince screamed trying to move away, only to fall on his face.
"Flame Prince!" Fionna dropped her sword and helped the frozen prince up. Flame Prince shook his head.
"Are you trying to kill me?" He asked with wide eyes. Fionna blushed.
"N-no! It's just all I could think of!" Fionna stammered. "It's not like you had any ideas." Fionna muttered.
"Ok, ok, it's not your fault. Just, you can't go around swinging swords at people. I'd like to go home in one piece." Flame Prince chuckled. Fionna laughed too.
"Sounds like a good idea." She said and leaned up against a tree. "So what are we going to do?" Fionna asked.
"I don't know. I'm too cold to melt myself out." Flame Prince said sadly. His hair pathetically flickered dimly.
"Hey, it's not your fault." Fionna said reassuringly.
"Yes it is!" FP yelled angrily. Fionna flinched. "If I had better control of my powers, I could've saved you when the Ice Queen attacked. If I had better control of my powers, I could melt myself out of this frozen mess!" His anger died down to sadness. "If I had better control, I wouldn't burn you." Flame Prince sighed and looked at the floor. All he could think about was the pain he put Fionna through since he had met her. He even hit her the first time they met. Fionna didn't deserve a jerk like him.
"Flame Prince." Fionna touched his cold cheek but he turned away from her.
"No. I can't hurt you anymore." He said. Fionna frowned.
"Flame Prince." Fionna persisted and Flame Prince felt her warm breath on his face. His cheeks heated up in a blush.
"Glob, Fionna! Stop! You deserve someone better! I don't want to burn you!" Flame Prince said angrily and turned his head. His lips crashed into Fionna's and his eyes widened. Fionna's eyes were closed as she deepened the kiss. Flame Prince felt his body heat up and he tried to pull away to prevent burning the human but Fionna's arms were laced around his neck. Flame Prince gave up on resisting and wrapped his arms around her waist, returning the kiss. The ice was no longer a problem for it had melted away as his flames grew. A tear slid down Fionna's cheek and Flame Prince winced when it hit his cheek, pulling away. He gasped in horror when he saw Fionna's arms red with burns and her lips on the verge of bleeding. Fionna saw this and tried to speak but whimpered at the action.
"I hurt you again." Flame Prince frowned. Fionna sighed and walked into the forest. Flame Prince watched her leave. She turned at gestured for him to follow. Flame Prince didn't budge. Fionna rolled her eyes and stormed over, almost grabbing his fiery wrist so she could pull him along.
"Ok! Ok. I'm coming." Flame Prince said and stood a safe distance beside her. Fionna limped beside him and kept quiet to prevent her lips from getting any more hurt. He would offer to carry her, but it would just worsen the situation.
"So, where are we going?" Flame Prince asked with curiosity. Fionna pointed to a towering kingdom ahead and Flame Prince gulped nervously.
"The Candy Kingdom."

"Heading to see Gumball, eh?" Flamba chuckled. She scampered behind them, hiding herself in the bushes. The two teenagers walked silently through the forest, unknowing of the flambit following them. Flamba stopped suddenly and thought for a second.
"Did I ever teach Flame Prince how to cast flame shield?" She asked herself. She tapped her chin and shrugged her shoulders.
"I'm sure he'll figure it out himself."
