Disclaimer: I do not own Adventure Time. This is just a story for fun.

In the days that followed the incident with the Lich, Simon, Betty, Marceline, Gunter, and all the penguins headed north. After a long journey they came across several snow covered mountains that had a stream going through it. Simon studied the mountain with interest. The largest of the mountains caught his attention.

"This is it." Said Simon.

"What?" Asked Betty.

"This is where we will make our home and live." Said Simon as he pointed at the large mountain.

"It's like a big tower of a castle." Said Marceline as she looked at the mountain.

"You're right it dose look like the tower of a big castle." Said Simon as he fondled Marceline's head. "This is going to be our new home. Lets pretend it's our own little kingdom. You can be Queen Marceline."

"I like that!" Said Marceline excitedly.

Betty just smiled at Simon.

"You certainly have a great sense of imagination." Said Betty.

"Well it's like Einstein used to say. Imagination is more valuable then knowledge." Said Simon.

"I couldn't agree more. Just look at how happy Marceline is." Said Betty as she pointed at Marceline.

Marceline was pretending to be a queen giving orders to Hambo and Gunter. Simon and Betty chuckled at the scene. Soon they headed towards the mountain. As they got closer they saw a huge cave in the back. Simon pulled out a flashlight and led the way inside. They made their way to a large spacious cavern. The inside of the mountain was surprisingly not that cold. The cavern broke up into several corridors.

"Alright everyone lets find ourselves a room." Said Simon as he led everyone down one corridor.

The group found themselves in a smaller chamber. Simon looked around at it satisfied.

"I here by dub this room the master bed room!" He declared.

"This is great!" Cheered Marceline.

Simon saws crack in one of the walls and went to go investigate it. Simon pulled a small hammer out of his backpack and hit the wall with it creating more cracks. After a couple of minutes Simon put the hammer down and put his crown on. Taking a deep breath he raised his hands and created a massive burst of ice wind blasting the wall and making a medium size hole. Betty and Marceline looked out the hole and saw the night sky.

"I present the master bedroom view." Said Simon with a bow.

"It's wonderful." Said Betty.

"You can see everything from here." Said Marceline.

After starring up at the night sky the group pulled out their sleeping bags and went to sleep. The next morning Simon walked out of the mountain and examined the area. Simon knew if he wanted to make the mountain into a good home, he was going to need some help. Simon looked at the snowy ground an idea coming to mind.

"Lets see if I can whip myself a few helpers." Said Simon as he put on his crown and blasted a pile of snow with his magic.

A dozen plies of snow rose up from the ground and began to take humanoid shapes. The new snow creatures stood over eight feet tall and had little eyes and mouths. Simon smiled at the new creatures satisfied with his work.

"What's going on here?" Asked Betty as she and Marceline came out of the mountain.

"Oh I just created a few helpers to help with our new home." Said Simon.

"Giant snowmen!" Cheered Marceline as she ran up to the nearest snow creature.

The snow creature smiled down at Marceline and picked her up. Marceline laughed happily as the snow creature carried her around. Simon and Betty just smiled.

"I'm going into town to find us some furniture. Will you be ok?" Asked Simon.

"Will be fine. Just come back safely." Said Betty as she kissed Simon on the cheek.

"I'll be back before nightfall and I'm going to bring you something good." Said Simon as he and the remaining snow creatures walked off.

A couple of hours later Simon and the snow creatures came across a city. The walked into the city and came across a furniture store. Simon created some more snow and made a dozen more snow creatures. Simon then went about picking out furniture for the mountain. He then found a couple of beds, a couch, a table, a couple of battery powered lamps, and some chairs. Simon then saw a display of old instruments consisting of a drum set, a keyboard, and an old wooden guitar.

"A little music will bring some joy to the girls." Said Simon as he bundled up the instruments and strapped them to his back.

A few hours later Simon and the snow creatures returned to the mountain.

"Special delivery from Super Simon's delivery service." Said Simon as the snow creatures went into the mountain and started to set up the furniture.

Simon went around with his hammer to create some cracks in a wall. He then used his powers to blast a hole and create some more makeshift windows. Simon then walked outside to get Betty and Marceline and show them the new furniture. A few minutes later Simon was showing the girls around.

"As you can see we have a lovely living room with a comfy couch and over here we have ourselves a nice little dining room complete with a table and chairs." Said Simon as he lead the girls down a hall. "Here is your room Marcy." He said as he indicated a small room with a bed.

"Yea! Thank you Simon!" Said Marceline as she threw her arms around Simon's waist and hugged him.

"You're welcome sweetie." Said Simon as he hugged Marceline.

An hour later the group was eating a meal of fruits and canned goods. Simon left the table and came back with the instruments.

"For tonight for your dinning pleasure. It's Simon the singer!" Said Simon as he set the drums up and began to sing.

"Welcome home

To this Winter Wonderland

It's been a long journey

But now we have a home

And although it's been tough

We've made it and things are going to get better

Cause I'm going to make this place your home

Lets settle down and cheer

Don't pay no mind to the monsters

They fill you with fear

The trouble it might drag you down

But don't worry

Just know you're not alone

Your family is here and you are home."

Betty and Marceline clapped and cheered as Simon took bow.

"Thank you I'll be here all night." Said Simon.

Betty began to clean up the table as Marceline walked over to the instruments and looked at them. She walked over to a guitar.

"You like the guitar?" Asked Simon as he watched Marceline from a chair.

"I do. My mommy was a musician and she played the guitar." Said Marceline as a sad look appeared in her eyes.

"Hey why don't I teach you how to play?" Said Simon.

"Really?" Asked Marceline eyes wide with excitement.

"Sure. I was quite a musician back in the day." Said Simon as he pulled out an old photo album from his backpack and showed Marceline a picture of his younger self playing a guitar.

"Who's that?" Asked Marceline as she pointed at the picture.

"Well believe it or not that's me! Well me before I went blue and grew this beard and long nose." Said Simon.

Marceline studied the picture.

"Oh yeah I see it now! You have the same smile as you do now." Said Marceline.

"I guess I do." Said Simon with a smile. "Now how about I teach you a little guitar?"

"Ok." Said Marceline.

Marceline sat in Simon's lap. Simon picked up the guitar and put it in Marceline's lap and showed her a few basic moves. Marceline followed Simon's instructions and managed to carry a little tune. An hour or so later it was time for bed. Marceline changed into a large night shirt, before be lead by Simon and Betty to, her new room. Simon and Betty tucked Marceline in.

"You played the guitar really well tonight." Said Simon.

"Yep! When I grow up I wanna be a rock star!" Said Marceline.

"You can be whatever you want sweetie." Said Simon with a smile.

"Really?" Asked Marceline.

"Of course. It's your life and you can do whatever you want with it. If music is something you love, then go do it." Said Betty.

"I will. Thanks." Said Marceline as she got into her bed with Hambo.

"Goodnight Mary. We love you." Said Simon as he tucked Marceline into bed.

"I love you Simon. I love you Betty." Said Marceline.

"We love you too sweetie." Said Betty.

Marceline closed her eyes and went to sleep. Simon and Betty just looked at her smiling before going off to their bed room.

In the months that followed Simon went hard to work improving the new home. Using his ice powers he chipped away at a rock ledge and made a staircase that went higher into the mountain. As he reached the top, Simon used his powers to cut three holes into the wall. Simon looked out of the hole pleased with his work.

Simon then grabbed Betty and Marceline and walked them out of the mountain a few yards with a camera and a tripod. When they were far enough Simon set up the tripod and set the timer. Simon quickly ran over to Betty and Marceline and they smiled for the camera as it took a picture of them and their house. There was a flash and a photo popped out of the camera. Simon took it out, so everybody could see.

"It's a good family picture." Said Betty.

"It looks like we have a big tall snowman behind us." Giggled Marceline

"Our house dose look like a big snowman." Said Simon in agreement.

They walked back to their house, framed the picture, and hung it on the wall of their living room. And so the family found a home in the strange new world. Little did they know that there were still some hardships ahead of them and that there were many strange and beautiful things they had yet to encounter.
