He sat up straight in his bed. His heart was racing. He looked over at his clock, it read 3:38. He looked over to his left, and saw his brother and pet platypus sleeping soundly. He quietly got out of bed and sighed. 'It's all my fault' he thought. He grabbed a picture and snuck downstairs. 'They'd understand if I went to go see my friend' he continued. He went outside, locking the door with his key. He started towards town. 'Maybe if I hadn't seen that movie, I wouldn't put them in the danger' he sighed. 'Maybe, just maybe…' he thought as his mind flashed back.

He and his brother were sitting on the couch, watching the movie 'Journey to the Center of the Earth', which was Candace's DVD she had gotten as a gift from Jeremy. They had just finished the movie and were about to put in another, when he exclaimed "Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!" Ferb gave him a blank expression. "We're gonna do what these people did in the movie! We're going to the center of the Earth!" He exclaimed. Ferb gave a thumbs-up.

The brothers went out into the back, along with a giant map of where they were going.

"Hey Phineas, what'cha doin'?" Isabella asked as she came into the backyard.

"Oh, hi Isabella! We're planning a trip…to the center of the Earth!" He exclaimed. Her eyes grew round with amazement

"That sounds like fun; can my Fireside Girls troop come and help? We need our journeying badge." She explained.

"Ok, we were just about to leave." Just then, Baljeet and Buford walked into the backyard. "Oh, hey you guys! We were just telling Isa-" He started when Buford interrupted him.

"We overheard you, can we come?" he asked.

"Yea sure that makes…eleven people."

"Phineas, you're in so much trouble for…standing there and talking to your friends?" Candace had just stepped into the backyard. "Well, Jeremy is coming over and I don't want you to make a whozewhatzer or a thingymobob and interrupt us!" She spoke angrily.

"No prob sis, we were just heading to…Sneffels, which is an extinct volcano in Iceland. It's where the people in the movie you have enter the many tunnels to the great underground habitat."

"WHAT?!? You snatched something from my room!!" she was enraged.

"Hey Candace." Jeremy said as he walked into the yard. Suzy was right behind him. Candace became more cheerful.

"Hey Jeremy!" she said dreamily.

"Suzy wanted to see what Phineas and Ferb were building today."

"Yea. I heard you and Jeremy talking about their cool inventions." Suzy spoke in her cute, high-pitched voice. She gave Candace the 'evil eye'.

"Ok, but we were actually going to the center of the Earth today." He said

"Cool, can I go, Jeremy, please please please please please?" Suzy begged her brother.

"Sure, I'll go too." Jeremy said. Quickly after that sentence, Candace also agreed.

He continued downtown. A lone tear welled up in his eye. He sat down on a bench. 'I wish I'd brought a jacket' he thought. After a few minutes, he got back up and continued in the direction of a certain building.

Author's note: Short, I know, but the next chapters will be longer, this is just the begining! Muahahahaha!!!

Anyway, my laptop is being uber annoying! Whenever I try to plug it in, the cord sparks, then on 12/12 it sparked a whole lot and it was totaled. So now my laptop's dead and I'm on the desktop (the keys seem so much bigger on it...) so that's why I haven't been posting up stories, Oh man! I cannot comtinue a Platypus' Party (haven't posted it up yet) it was on my laptop. Wah!

Ok, sorry, had to rant, so...Enjoy!

One more thing, it's rated T for some violence in later chapters...with something underground...
