OMGOMGOMGOMG ;A; SOOOOO SORRY ABOUT THE LATE UPDATE, GUYSSS! Really, I feel bad, I just couldn't think of anything n I promise the next one wont take as long, and I HATE that this is so short! IDEAS, Y U NO COME TO MIND? XD

"Whoah!"

In the nick of time, Phineas leaped, roughly landing against the bitter ice and catching the tumbling girl in his arms. His chest was immediately doused with snow and ice, sending a sharp chill to run up his body. He shook his head as his vision swam to focus from the fall, letting an amused grin appear on his face as he chuckled.

The light figure in his grasp giggled, gazing at him apologetically. "Oopsie!" She squeaked, her voice warm and sweet. "I should have seen the ice; maybe I wouldn't have slipped if I did!"

They both exchanged a laugh; Phineas pulled his girlfriend up and off the ground, holding onto her waist as they stood steady. "All better now?" He chuckled, gazing at her with a glint of amusement in his eyes.

"Much," She replied, giggling. With a smirk, she gave him a light shove, chuckling as he slid and struggled to regain his balance. He finally stopped stumbling and stood still, letting out a breath of relief.

"What was that for?" He snorted, his eyes rolling playfully.

Isabella laughed, skipping off the slippery road and halting in the snow, her feet making a loud crunch as they sunk into the thick blanket. "You seem clumsier than me on ice, Phineas," She said teasingly, "try chasing me through it!"

"Just don't slip before me!" He called after her as she began to run, letting out a joyous laugh as he began the chase. She was quick, skillfully making her way through the cold.

"I can promise I wont!" She hopped over a snowbank as her feet softly collided against a frozen pond, causing her to fumble and slide across. She laughed as she spun, gracefully making her way to the other side.

"Oh, you're just showing up!" Chuckled Phineas from behind as he quickened his pace in spite of trying to catch up to her.

As Isabella continued to sprint, she looked out to the thick bundle of trees out in the distance. With a smirk, she called back over her shoulder, "Are you good at climbing trees?"

Phineas blinked in confusion, then turned his gaze to the forest out beyond. "Oh, come on, Isabella," he pleaded with a smile, "I'm getting tired!"

"You have to catch me if you want to rest!" And with that, she picked up her speed, her feet nearly tripping over themselves at her pace. She skipped to a stop before entering the white-blanketed forest, glancing back at the tiring boy that ran swiftly after her. She hunched over and placed her hands to her knees, breathing heavily. As she caught her breath, she stood up straight again, speed-walking through the frost-covered plants that grew on the hard earth. For a moment she forget where she was headed and became lost in thought, her gaze wandering endlessly around the expansive trees above. Sunlight streamed through the leaves, causing her to squint against the harsh beam of light. Without taking notice of where she was or where she was walking, the raven-haired girl let out a screech as the ground disappeared from underneath her.

Phineas's ears faintly picked up her scream of terror as he whipped his head up, his pupils shrinking at the sound of her voice. "Isabella!" He gasped, no longer feeling the slightest bit tired. He ran as fast as he could and exploded into the forest, glancing frantically from left to right as he called her name several times. The desperation in his voice could not be mistaken as he searched all around, until eventually he fell into the same dark hole as the girl he loved had a few moments before.

With a moan, Phineas picked up his head, his eyes slowly shifting their gaze around the dirt-covered walls. "Where am I...?" He groaned, giving his head a soothing rub. It hurt immensely and pounded with pain. He suddenly remembered the entire reason he was down here. "Isabella!" He whispered, his voice cracked with despair.

A cough caused him to look over to the dark corner. "Phineas?" Came a hoarse reply as a figure sat up, its wide blue eyes staring down into his. "That you? Where are we?"

"Isabella!" The elated red-head immediately wrapped the duty girl into a hug, squeezing her tight. "When I heard you scream i got scared, are you alright? Are you hurt? We should get out of here."

"Yes. Yes, we should. But..." Her gaze wandered around the small area as she let out a sigh. "Where exactly is here, anyways?"

"Not sure..." Breathed Phineas, "It appears we've fallen into a ditch of some sort. Though, I cant imagine any animal would dig this. It's obviously man-made..."

"Yeah-" Began Isabella, until an eerie smell creeped up their nostrils. "Yuck! What is that?" She gagged, lifting up her jacket to hold it over her nose.

"Not sure, but..." Phineas let out a yawn, blinking sleepily. "It sure it making me tired."

"Tired?" Isabella gave a yawn as well, her thoughts becoming jumbled together. "Tired..." Suddenly, realization struck her like a lightning bolt. "Phineas! That's sleeping gas!"

...But the red-headed boy was already knocked out, collapsed against the dirt. A small snore came from him as he slept, and soon enough, Isabella slumped over and rested her head on his back, falling into a deep slumber as well.

Yeah, it may seem a bit rushed...okay, maybe a lot rushed...but hey, you get an update...and that's all I really got to say. ^^;
