This is merely a preview, and NOT the entire story. I will work more on this story (or should I say, series) after a certain point in "Like Father, Like Son". I don't know when, exactly, heck, I may even do it sooner than I think (and hope). I just think that this is a really, really, really good idea.
Note that a lot of this is based off of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic", Season 2 episodes 1-2 specifically. The OC "The Puppeteer" is, in fact, based off of Discord, whom I really loooooooove. :3 But there are differences. For one thing, The Puppeteer is not a dynamic character. Another thing is that, although his IS a chimera, he is not a draconequus. Also, he's more formed like a doll mixed with an actual sock puppet. Finally, because of his appearance, The Puppeteer is more intimidating looking than silly, at least in Discord's standards. I'm not exactly sure what he sounds like. I think he/it should sound a bit demonic, but not too much. Of course, I shouldn't care, since this is being written down, not recorded. I'll leave the choice of his voice up to you.
As for the story I posted, the one that is called "The Puppeteer", consider this the revised version. Because of that, I will be taking down that story after I start this project entirely. Trust me, I think that this will be a much better version. However, if you still want to read the older version, I'll keep up the current chapters, but I won't continue it. If I do, I'll change it a bit, change the title to something else, and will use a different villain, but even if I do I have absolutely no idea where I'm going with that version.
Now, let me explain a bit of the story (not too much, otherwise I'll give too much away): this story is about almost all the PnF characters. It's more of a POV series than something that has an actual protagonist. Actually, you could say that The Puppeteer is sort of the protagonist, since the story revolves around him, but, he's more of the antagonist. The character that the story revolves mostly around is, actually, Dr. Doofenshmirtz. I think I can do a lot with him. As for the others, these are a list of characters who I will write about the most (other than Doofenshmirtz, of course):
Phineas (duh, he IS my favorite character...maybe I should consider making a community for him...)
Ferb
Perry
Isabella
Candace
Buford and Baljeet (their written together as a pair for reasons you'll find out in the story)
Pinky (though his story is more minor than the others)
And here are the OCs I will be writing about, though their stories are more minor than the ones written above:
Applejack the Pygmy Goat (Note: this story takes place after Ferb's Goodbye (which I am thinking about putting up for adoption, because I honestly don't know what to do for that story without it becoming cheesy), so Applejack is a bit more mature now)
Danni Alexandria (With her, I'm going to focus her relationships towards Isabella and Ferb, since she's the closest to them; trust me, I'll make sure that she's not a Mary-Sue)
Dr. Alice Schnitzel (the, technical, female counterpart of Dr. Doofenshmirtz. She has her own personality, of course, and does not look like a female recolor. Her story mainly focuses on Doofenshmirtz, Perry, Applejack, Linda, and Lawrence, with a dab of Phineas, Ferb, and their friends)
Gala the Magician (her story is mentioned, probably the least. To explain her a bit more, she is a princess, however takes more action that the stereotypical princesses in Disney movies. She's not perfect, and has a bit of an ego, an anger problem [though, not to Schnitzel's extreme], and has been afraid. She can use magic, and is quite intelligent, but is only in training, and is prone to exaggeration. She is not, however, a damsel. She's between Isabella and Candace's age.)
All other characters mentioned, besides The Puppeteer, will have very minor, and/or very brief stories, some that continue on and play a role later. The romance will be put to a minimum, but it will be there. The OCs, as I said, will be more of minor/recurring characters, though play more roles than the other minors.
If the genre existed on this site, this would be considered a Slice of Life story, though this can be seen as an Adventure/Fantasy story as well. There will be fluff, but, I hope not so much that it will make you all barf rainbows.
Well, anyways, enjoy! :D

"...You know, dear? The world was finally peaceful again after he was sealed away. Everything stopped being destructive, and everything turned back to the way things should be...then The Puppeteer returned and everything started being confusing again...but do not fret, my child...I'm sure everything will be right again, really soon..."

Danville was once a beautiful place. Everyone was happy, joyful, peaceful...never saw that on the other side of their little paradise was a living nightmare, ready to be born unto the world...
You really think that this town is all puppy dogs and smiles all around...think again, boy! WELCOME TO REALITY!

"You weren't altered the same way he altered the others. You wouldn't listen to a thing he said! So I had to be born."
"That was just a bed-time story I haven't heard since I was a kid! It can't be real! How can you revive something that isn't real?!"
"You can understand us?" "I can understand you?!" "I'm betting this isn't a good thing..."
"Heinz doesn't NEED to go outside...EVER!"
"Lo, and behold! I AM THE KING OF DNALGNE!"
"Even in the darkest of times, ya have'ta find somethin' to laugh about."
"Please, don't do this...let them hate me, let them be angry at me...let them..."

Morning in Da-anville shimmers!
Morning in Da-anville shines~!
And I know for absolute certain
That everything is certainly-!
Zztt
"How'd you do that?"
"A magician never tells his secrets."
.

"PERRY! I'M SORRY!"
"No, it...it couldn't have been..."
.
.

"I hope I never see you again!"
"Fine!"
"Fine!"
"FIIIINE!"
"It's settled then."
"It just can't be the truth..."
.

"Well, boo-hoo-HOO!"
"You're nothing but an overgrown idiot with no sense of intelligence!"
"I'll do this for...my family..."
"FERB! COME BACK!"
"What just..."
"I thought you were my friend..."
"I HATE ALL OF YOU!"

It's a slow fade
When you give yourself away
"Why do things have to hurt?"
"If it didn't, we wouldn't be considered real, now would we?"
"But does it have to hurt so much?"
"...I don't know."
It's a slow fade
When black and white get turned to grey
And darkness invades
"...You need to have faith."
"Is it really that simple?"
"That's for you to decide..."
Choices are made
"Phineas, please-..."
"NO! YOU USED ME!"
A price will be paid
When you give yourself away
"Ah, Perry the Platypus..."
People never crumble in a day...
"...What have I done...?"
.
.
.
Nothing less than an overhaul of physiology will service. They must be rendered chemically unable to feel that emotion...
.
.
.
That's all this is then...no creation date, no big bang, no Carpe Diam?
Just a slow, fade-away, like we were never here...like we never mattered. Just brushed aside.
Erased. Like we were all one big mistake.
Not bad.
But not good enough.
Will it matter, or is it just a mere nothing?
Why...?
It's a slow fade~!
.
.
.
"Where are you?!"
"Very...close...by..."
A/N:
Okay, not the best thing I've written, but, trust me when I say this is gonna be a great story. TRUST me. Have I ever let you...okay, forget I said that. But seriously, I really, really, really like this idea, and I hope you guys like it too.
I won't forget about my other stories, and I will work on them. I've handled this kind of work before.
Anyways, read, review, critic, but don't flame me OR ELSE!
I hope you all enjoyed, and will read the entire once it's been posted.
