Adventure Time : A True Journey

POV : JAKE 

He was worried , very , very worried . Finn had suffered a head injury that had knocked him out instantly and he had not woken up yet !! It was right after they had helped that stupid crying mountain . And how had he repaid them , crushing a boulder on his best bro's head !! 

He knew it was a bad idea to help a talking pile of stone , like what large piece of rock just casually starts talking .

But it was a mistake . And Finn would be alright . He was a tough kid who had taken harsher knocks . Yes , he had to be alright !! 

- Pacing around the room -

It was his job as a big brother to make sure that Finn was alright , and he had failed . He failed Finn !! And now he was dead . 

" sob sob waahhh waahhh . Finn I'm sorry . I'll make sure to burry your body properly . And . . . and . . . I'll even bake you your favorite Finn cupcakes . Waahhh " Jake had never been more disappointed with himself .

Such a response would have looked normal for an outward observer but it was not . Jake himself had bandaged Finn after the incident and had made sure that he was alright , leaving him comfortable to sleep on the bed . Such a response was clearly not normal . 

In short , this was nothing more than an exaggeration on Jake's part . His wild imagination practically cursing the person who should be healing to a death that had not happened . In fact , Jake the dog was already imagining the funeral procession and the speech he would be making and the tears once again came to him .

" Jake !! " A very familiar voice screamed , easily reaching his twitching dog ears , making them twitch more vigorously 

Jake suddenly stopped crying . And looked around confused . Was that his best bud . Was his soul still watching over him past the earthly realm !! . That was just like Finn , always ever Kind and Loving . Jake would remember him always .

" Jake !! " His dog ears enlarged to pick up all sounds in the tree house and he could finally hear it clearly . Yes , the noise was coming from their bedroom . The muffled shouting of a childish voice he was very familiar with .

The bedroom he had placed Finn's injured body !! 

" Oh Glob !! Finn's awake ! Wait for me you sweet summer child , Ima coming ! " He stretched past the floor boards , shrinking until he was tiny enough and resizing back to his original size up in their bedroom . 

Where he was met with the site of a white mummy crawling on Finn's bed , fiercely struggling to break free but failing each time . Now that he was looking at it with a calm mind , it was kind of funny . Hehe

" Jake !! " Finn's voice came again and Jake rushed forward to rescue his best bud from the bandage monster that had eaten him up !! 

" Huyaahh " He used his awesome fighting moves to free Finn from the clutches of the bandages . He learned them from his dad . 

Finn breathed out fiercely as if he were trapped and had finally escaped . 

" Finn , your finally awake . I was so worried . " Jake tightly hugged Finn stretching his hands around him in a tight hug . 

" Can't . . . . breathe ! " Jake pulled back and stared up at Finn's increasingly purple face and quickly pulled back . 

- Coughing -

" I'm sorry Finn . . . are you alright . " Jake had noticed there was something strange about Finn . Something only he could notice . He felt that Finn had changed but he could not tell how . There was no visible change but Jake was sure Finn was different ! Or was it the bump on his head . It looked to be reduced though .

" I'm alright bro . . .Just , a little tired ! " Finn was taking deep breaths and Jake could see that the hug had done a number on him . 

What was he doing ? Worrying about pointless things while his bro was passed out . Jake felt bad but he knew how to fix it , he would make his most famous chicken soup to aid in Finn's healing journey !! 

A mixture of the finest spices , chicken, spring water , vegetables from the farmers market and lots of love and Finn would be brand new in a couple of days !! He had to get to it .

. . . . 

POV : Finn 

Yellow glossy hair and big round eyes , that was the first sight that caught Leo as soon as he saw his brother Jake , and then it was followed by what he would have considered strange if he did not have his memories from the past 10 years . A talking dog , no , a talking dog that had stretching powers !! 

The new him surprisingly did not find this strange . It felt normal . Normal because this was normal in his mind . He was raised by his talking dog parent and the land of Ooo was equally not a normal place . But this still did not reduce the strangeness of it all , yes it was normal , but still strange . Like people saying the earth was flat . Very normal but still strange . 

Finn could see the worry increase in Jakes eyes and the panic rise for whatever reason . Was he still worried about the hug , he shouldn't be . Finn was practically fine now . And he could not lie that he was very impressed with the amount of emotion he could see from Jake's face . It felt very fulfilling somehow 

" Hey Jake , you're worrying over nothing , I'm perfectly fine . See . " Finn flexed his arm to show off his muscles . But he fell back on the bed feeling like a jolt of pain run through his head . Maybe he wasn't fine . 

What exactly happened to him . He felt as if he was hit by a truck ! And now that he thought about it , why was he wrapped like he was about to be buried . 

" What happened to me Bro ! My head weighs like a bag of stones , " 

Finn felt natural . Calling this magical dog that he had grown up with his brother was very normal to him and why not . Jake was his brother from another mother , Father ? . His heart told him so and the memories that were with him could not be replaced just because of his new memories . That fact had solidified in his mind and would not change . 

And having a magical talking Dog as a best pall was definitely the coolest thing ever !!

It was a fact that he would never deny and he readily accepted it . He felt warm knowing he still had family he could rely on , an older brother that despite his own failings , had tried to make sure that Finn was always safe and happy , and that was why he readily called Jake his brother . Maybe the Goddess wasn't as useless as he though . 

" Wellllll . . . " Finn was not sure why he felt as if he would not like what Jake was about to tell him . And by the tone Jake had started with , he was very sure of it . But he was ready , he could take it . He was a strong guy . 

" Lay it on me Jake . " He spoke seriously . He wanted to know . What had happened , were they fighting a strong monster or maybe was he exhausted after a long tiresome battle . His blue eyes sparkled in anticipation ! He needed to know !

" You were knocked out by a falling boulder dude . " His face fell and he knew his day was ruined . A boulder , he must have heard it wrong . Him , knocked out by a boulder , was his durability turned off or something .

 " After we finished helping the crying mountain and helping the others fix their problems , a boulder by chance hit you in the head and knocked you out . You've been asleep for at least two hours Finn ! . . . Do you know how worried I was ! " At that moment everything became background noises .

It all slowly came back to him finally . Slowly but still painful . How the crying mountain for some reason did not like the violence of the marauders . How he had revealed his helping philosophy and how he had cleverly helped all the people solve their problem and finally how a boulder had landed on his head . It was a little painful to remember but at least he now knew what had happened . 

Finn felt like he was being mothered as he listened to his brother and he chuckled at the warmth he felt rise in him , even overshadowing the his disappointment of being snipped by a boulder . A warmth he only felt before when he was with his father but now , he had a new family . A family he would do his best to make sure he never lost . 

 " Hahahahaha " He laughed . A happy and boisterous laugh that confused Jake but soon enough , Jake also joined in the laugh . Boosting the overall moral that was dropping in the room . 

Why either of them was laughing the other did not know . It was simply a laugh that confirmed that both of them were okay . That despite the slight stumble , they were still there for each other . 

" Huhhhh "

" Why are we laughing . " Jake finally asked and looked at Finn confused and Finn laughed some more . 

 " And also theirs a floating book that's been following you around . "

That quickly got Finn to almost choke on his saliva as he looked at Jake strangely . Had he also hit his head . 

" Where ? " He asked more curiously to see what his lovable brother was talking about 

" Behind you . It's been floating there for a while now . " Jake pointed almost obviously behind Finn and he turned his head stiffly around to look at the so called book . 

 And floating there right behind him , was . . . a floating book , un surprisingly . The book was prominently red and black with strange Kanji symbols and finally it had a green ninja mask motif at the center . Finn recognized the book . It was part of the wish he had been given .

More precisely it was part of the ninja pack he had acquired and he was therefor not very surprised at seeing it beside him . 

" Oh look , a floating book . " 

He saw Jake looking at him strangely and he wondered why . Did he expect him to get scared . Why would he . In his eyes , Finn thought a floating book was thousands time less scary than a talking mountain . At least a floating book he could somehow explain using his logic but a talking mountain !! 

" Did you try touching it , " He asked the doubtful dog beside him curiously 

" Of course not ! What if it has ghost germs ! "

END . . . . .
