Eric, Alem, and the Fox Emperor belong to me. However, the Fox is a parody of the Star Wars emperor. That may sound amusing, but the tv tropes page for this series describes him as "unsettling"...

Oh, and NO HATE COMMENTS PLEASE. This took months to write, so I do not appreciate negative feedback. Thank you.

Prologue:

The shadow of a man could be seen in the alley. Another, platypus shaped figure walked up to the man. The two began whispering to one another. Then as the man walked away, the second figure called out in a computerized voice, "Don't worry. We will eliminate the Resistance soon. Starting with two members in particular..."

Chapter 1: A Tragic Event

"How's that new gadget coming along, Ferb?" asked Phineas. He and his step-brother, Ferb were sitting in the Lounge in the underground hideout of an agency known as The Resistance.

Ferb gave a thumbs up. "Almost done," he said. "And...there! It's ready!"

"Cool!" said Phineas. "What does it do?"

"It shoots out a rope that wraps around the enemy," Ferb replied.

Phineas opened his mouth to respond, but was interrupted by a loud, blaring alarm. He looked up at the screen that had just turned on above them.

ALERT! ALERT! the screen flashed.

"Grab your battle gear Ferb."

"Ah, Phineas and Ferb, we meet again," said Heinz. "Are you here to surrender?"

Phineas, Ferb, Heinz and a cyborg platypus stood on a platform in Heinz's building.

"We'll never join you!" shouted Phineas.

"Just what I thought," said Heinz. He turned to the cyborg. "Platyborg, finish them off!" he commanded.

The Platyborg walked up to the two children.

"It ends here!" he said, in his robotic voice. (The platyborg couldn't actually talk. Instead, he spoke with a translator device.)

"Ferb," whispered Phineas, "I'll take care of him. You go fight Heinz."

Ferb nodded. Phineas pulled out a blaster. The Platyborg did the same. As they began to fire at each other, Ferb snuck past them and stood face-to-face with Heinz.

"Giving up?" Heinz taunted.

Ferb's eyebrows slanted downward. "No!" he answered.

They pulled out their blasters and began their own fight.

Suddenly, they heard a yell.

"Ferb, help me!" Phineas shouted.

Ferb and Heinz both saw that the Platyborg had pinned Phineas to the ground, and was pressing his blaster against the child's forehead, ready to fire.

Ferb quickly pulled out his new invention and pushed a button on it. Immediately a rope shot out of it, flew through the air and wrapped itself around the Platyborg.

"Way to go bro!" Phineas said, standing up. The Platyborg could hardly move. His arms were stuck against his body.

"The knot is very tight," Phineas observed. He looked at Heinz. "Looks like you're fighting alone this time."

Suddenly outraged, Heinz turned back towards Ferb and yelled, "That's it! If you won't surrender, and if you won't free my minion, you'll get it!"

Ferb looked a little nervous. "I-I w-won't," he said. "I will never surrender to evil!" he added, much more strongly.

"So be it," said Heinz quietly. "Take this, goody-two-shoes!" he yelled whacking Ferb on the head with the butt of his blaster. Ferb let out a short yell and rubbed his head. As the boy tried to recover, Heinz kicked him hard, knocking him off the edge of the platform. Ferb fell for about three seconds, then landed with a thud.

"FERB!" Phineas screamed. Heinz grinned cruelly at him. Phineas, who was now very frightened, turned and ran away as fast as his legs could carry him.

"Coward!" Heinz yelled behind him. "Just you wait! One day you will meet your doom. One day, there will be no one brave enough to resist me anymore!"

Phineas ran and ran until he got to the place where Ferb was. Ferb lay on the ground, alive, but only his slow breathing indicated that he was alive.

"Ferb," Phineas said quietly, approaching his injured brother. He got down on his knees and propped Ferb's head up in his arms.

Ferb turned his head toward Phineas and opened his eyes.

"Ferb," Phineas whispered again.

"Oh Phineas, I'm sorry," said Ferb quietly. "I don't think I'll make it."

"Y-you will," Phineas stammered. "Y-you have to."

Ferb gave Phineas a sad look. "Just go. Leave me."

"But then you'll...you'll..." Phineas stammered.

"Nothing can stop that now," Ferb said even more quietly, with sorrow in his voice. "Goodbye, brother."

"Ferb, don't leave me!" Phineas cried desperately. "I'll get you to the emergency aid. You'll be alright."

Ferb didn't respond. He closed his eyes. Phineas stood up and dragged him away, not willing to except what was happening.
