AN: Holy crap I can't believe I managed to start this story! Honestly, this is going to be a big project since I'm trying to create Ooo in a more modern setting except I'm using the Adventure Time characters of course. First off, this story is going to be AU. If you don't like that kind of story then hit the back button now.

….

…

…

Still with me? All right then I'll move on. Now, the characters are all going to retain their species type e.g. Marceline is still a vampire, Bubblegum is still a Candy/Human hybrid ect. Let's see what else, oh I chose names for Marceline, Bubblegum, and LSP's parents since they'll be making more than one appearance in the story and I think it'll get hard referring to them without names. So I chose them based on some of the creator or voice actors of the characters. I'll also be putting small bios of the characters at the end of the chapters to help you picture them in this story. I think that's it. If not I'm sure I'll edit this at a later time.

Disclaimer: I do not own Adventure Time. I think everyone knows that by now.

Marceline and Bonnibel

Chapter 1 Welcome to Ooo

Dark clouds rolled across the sky in the City of Ooo. Their rumbling and flashing lights within cautioned everyone of the rain that was soon to come. Tom Ward looked up at the sky and sighed as he adjusted his glasses. Rain always made it difficult to secure a crime scene of evidence, especially when the crime had taken place outside in an alley. It was hard enough to find anything as it was. He didn't need the rain to wash away anything of potential use.

"We better pick up the pace boys. Let's get everything we can before the weather decides to drench the crime scene."

"Yes sir!"

Tom took his attention away from the weather to give the crime scene another once over. At 4:35PM, they got a report of a body in an alley near downtown Ooo. He'd arrived with his partner, Joshua DiMaggio, to find the body of a local drug addicted everyone referred to as the Royal Tart Toter. No one knew his real name and any attempts to find out who he was lead to dead ends. He'd heard rumors that the old gingerbread man was a veteran of the Mushroom Wars and that he'd gone mad from the things he witnessed during that time. He'd heard others say he was once the owner of a successful Tart company until it went belly up and he drowned his sorrows in alcohol and drugs.

Whatever his story was, Tom felt he didn't deserve to end up like he did. No one deserved to be killed and then left in an alley like yesterday's trash.

"Another rough night huh?" Joshua asked as he walked up to his partner.

"I'll say. Going to have to phone the Missus and let her know I'll be home late today."

His wife, Maria, was a very understanding woman. At least he felt she was. It wasn't being easy the wife a police officer sometimes. It definitely tested one's relationship with their family. It was the one thing he didn't like about his job. He was always away at odd hours and sometimes he felt if he were around more, his daughter wouldn't be so rebellious. Penelope "Lumpy" Ward was certainly the definition of a rebellious teenager.

"So, did we find anything?"

"There were some hairs found on the guy. We're hoping the boys from the lab give us something to work with." Joshua sighed. "Or they could just be some sort of animal hair. Who knows how long the poor fella's been out here."

"We better hope something turns up then."

Above him, the sky rumbled before a curtain of water began to descend on the police officers. The two officers quickly whipped out their umbrella to shield them from the storm. Joshua sighed dramatically.

"Don't want to go home smelling like wet dog, but there's only so much I can do."

Tom chuckled. It must be hard being a dog in this weather.

"Why don't you just head home Joshua? I hate to say this but there's nothing much for us to do here. There were no witnesses to talk to except for the gal that found the body and the boys should be by soon to pick up the body."

"You sure?"

"I'm sure. You said it was your boy Jake's birthday today right? Go celebrate it with him."

"Thanks Tom. I owe you one. Call me if anything comes up though. You're not going after any leads without me."

"Will do."

Joshua nodded and took off towards home. Tom turned back to re-evaluate the scene hoping to catch something he missed.

"Sir!"

"What is it?"

"We found something!"

Tom quickly made his way further down the alley. His deputies were holding their umbrellas over whatever they found, trying to protect it form the rain. Tom rubbed his forehead at what laid there.

It was a wooden stake stuck in a shirt. The clothes the unfortunate victim wore were left on the floor like he'd just disappeared from them. In a sense, that is what happened when a vampire was killed. Their clothes would remain behind as their physically body shriveled into dust.

"Hmm, looks like these two murders might be associated."

"Wrong place at the wrong time?" one of his deputies offered.

Tom nodded. That could be what happened. The poor old gingerbread man could've witnessed the dispute between two gangs and had been killed so he wouldn't talk. Not like he could have reported anything. The gingerbread man was insane after all. The assailants obviously didn't care if he could or couldn't. They covered all their tracks.

"Well, search the clothes and see if we can find any sort of ID on the victim. I have a feeling we'll be getting more bodies if this is gang related."

"Yes sir."

The lumpy police officer shook his head as he walked away from the new crime scene. Things like this were becoming more and more common around Ooo. People would mysteriously disappear then turn up dead. Kids and adults were found dead from overdoses. He remembered a time when a death was a rare occurrence as opposed to the norm. This was why their Mayor was so dead set on getting rid of these gangs.

He admired what the Mayor wanted to do but it wasn't that easy. He didn't understand how things worked on the streets. Even if they got rid of the leaders, that didn't mean that the others wouldn't regroup and rebuild. It was the only life they knew so why change that? Joshua feared what would happen if the gangs lost their leadership. The only thing he could picture was chaos in the streets.

He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hello?"

"Hey honey."

"Oh. It's just you Daddy."

Tom couldn't help but notice the disappointment in his daughter's voice.

"Expecting someone else?"

"No. Do you need to talk to mom or something?"

"Yes, that would be great honey."

"Alright, one sec. MOM! It's Daddy!"

Tom had to pull the phone away from his ear. He was sure he'd go deaf one of these days from his daughter's screaming. Until then though, he hoped to enjoy his hearing for a little while longer.

Above him, the sky continued to rumble and soak the earth with water. It was just another day in the City of Ooo.

AN: I know it was a short chapter but I got to start somewhere. Oh and in case you didn't realize it, but Tom is LSP's dad and Joshua is Jake's dad. I'll have bio's for them later. Next chapter we meet the rest of the main characters will be making their debut. As always, comments are appreciated. Until next time!

Oh and here are the first two bio's.

Marceline McQueen

Age: 17

Birthday: March 11

Gender: Female

Species: Vampire/Shapeshifter

Favorite saying: "I only do things that are fun."

Family: Martin- Father (alive); Olivia- Mother (deceased)

Most precious possession: Hambo

Marceline is the only child of the infamous gang leader known as the Lord of Evil. Her mother passed away when she was only 5 years old and remembers very little about her. She grew up knowing there was something different about her family. By the time she turned 13, she realized that her father was a crime lord. Not wanting to get anyone around her to into trouble because of her family, she distanced herself from everyone at her school and only associated with members of the gang. As a result, she doesn't have any friends at school and gets into trouble on a daily basis.

Despite being the daughter of a crime lord, she has fantastic grades, which irritates her classmates since she ditches class so much. Marceline knows that her father wants her to take over the gang once he retires and she had no problem with it.

Marceline is not full vampire but since no one knows the connection to her father, she refers to herself as such. The vampire blood comes from her mother and her shape shifting abilities she's gained from her father who is a demonic creature with some vampire in his blood. Once she turns 18, her father must "turn" her. It's more of a coming of age ceremony for all vampires who wish to be able to have access to their full vampire abilities. The down side is she will no longer be able to go into the sun. Marceline uses her mother's maiden name in order to not be traced to her father.

Bonnibel "Princess" Bubblegum

Age: 17

Birthday: June 18

Gender: Female

Species: Candy People/Human

Favorite saying: "The answer was so simple, I was too smart to see it!"

Parents: Adam- Father (alive); Natasha- Mother (alive)

Most precious possession: A T-shirt Marceline gave her.

Bonnibel is the daughter of the Mayor of Ooo. She is an incredibly smart girl and hopes to work in the field of chemistry after she attends University, however, she knows her parents want her to enter into politics like them. She's hesitant about it but has not had the courage to voice her wishes. She's been Marceline's classmate since they were in elementary school and were even once friends. However, after they entered middle school, she and Marceline had a fight and had not spoken to each other since. She has no idea that Marceline's dad is the crime lord that her father is trying to catch thus she does not know the reason she was pushed out of Marceline's life.

Even though they haven't spoken for years, she still misses the other girls since she was the only person that she was able to completely open up to. A chance run in with her at school gives her a second chance to mend their broken friendship and possibly develop it into something else.

Bonnibel is a hybrid of Candy People and Humans. After she turns 18, she will stop aging at a normal rate and could live to be thousands of years old. Her people make up the majority of the City of Ooo where many kinds of species live.
