A/N: I am seriously sorry, you guys. I've been doing a lot of planning for this fan fiction. Trust me; your mind will be blown out of your face by the time you're done with this story. Anyway, have any of you guys watched the Disney movie Hercules? Well, I'm having the lovely Firestorm Girls be the Muses. I don't own the movie. I do own the songs "Sucks Being the Underdog" and "The Feeling's Mutual". I'm sending a shout out to Natty MC for an idea. Send in your ideas so you can be mentioned in this. Now, be prepared for some singing and no Gretchen yet.
The whole gang ended up coming minus the Fireside Girls. The rest of the afternoon was spent making clones, packing, and getting weapons. Soon, Monogram called for attention.
"Attention! Okay boys and girls, get all of your stuff and step in front of the Other-Dimension-inator. Step in through the portal and it will lead you to the Resistance's lair. They will help you on your mission. Good bye and good luck."
One by one, the kids stepped through the portal and into the Resistance's hideout. The scenery was mostly the same. The wild parsnips were in a corner, Buford-2 was lounging on a chair eating chips, and Dr. Baljeet was furiously typing on a computer. What was different? Oh yeah, the "couples" arguing in the middle of the room.
If we were a movie
you'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
you'd fall in love with
in the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play that happy song
Isabella-2 was trying to keep away from a remorseful looking Phineas-2.
"Your stupid robot singed my clothes!" Isabella screamed.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know it would go haywire. You think I plan this?" Phineas-2 pleaded.
"Yes, yes you do," Isabella-2 answered.
"You really think that. Are you serious? I was trying to do something nice for you!"
"Look where that got you!"
"You know what, I'm out of here!"
"No one's stopping you!"
They parted their separate ways. The other guys weren't doing so well either.
"Absolutely not, Johnson. They will not do something as dangerous as this again," Candace-2 refused.
"They saved you from living your life in a jail cell," Jeremy-2 argued.
"I would gladly take that if it meant them not getting hurt."
"There are a ton of 10-year olds going on this mission. They are ready to face the impossible. Why can't your brothers?"
"It's different."
"How so? Is it because they're your brothers? What about the others?"
"You know what? We'll continue this conversation in private." They went into a conference room to talk. The 1st dimension-ers just stood there and watched it all happen. Then they got an idea.
"To our counterparts!" they all yelled leaving a lonely Gretchen.
*Ferb*
"Hey there", Ferb-1 said.
"Hi. Thanks for teaching me classical guitar," Ferb-2 answered.
"You're welcome, I guess," Ferb-1 said.
They stared at each other thinking of something to say.
"I guess being the silent one has gotten to me," Ferb-2 said.
"You don't know the half of it," Ferb-1 replied.
"Oh yeah? How about being famous but invisible at the same time? To be discriminated when you try to speak out? To always be the underdog?" Ferb-2 explained.
"Spot on, and it sucks," Ferb-1 said.
[Ferb-1]
He will go and flirt while I'll be workin'.
[Ferb-2]
He'll be on stage when I'm workin' the show.
[Ferb-1]
It's not like I don't like the spotlight.
[Ferb-2]
But he's the perfect package with a bow.
[Chorus both]
Now I guess I have to deal. I am not a publicity hog. When I'm singing this little thing, it 'aint gonna make you wanna swing, 'cause it sucks being the underdog.
[Ferb-1]
I wish I could switch places with him once.
[Ferb-2]
I'll be talking much and rest-assured.
[Ferb-1]
No one will dare to hush me.
[Both]
'Cause they'll be hanging on to every word.
{Chorus}
[Ferb-1]
The loneliness of being second best has caused me to hide my feelings.
[Ferb-2]
When they say, "He doesn't talk much." They don't know the emotions I am sealing.
[Ferb-1]
Do they know me? I 'aint perfect.
[Ferb-2]
But you know it's really worth it.
[Both]
Though I hate being a publicity hog…it still sucks being the underdog.
{Chorus}
"I wonder if anyone else is this successful with their counterparts," Ferb-2 asked.
"Where is the fun in that?" Ferb-1 asks.
*Phineas*
"Hey. You really pissed Isabella back there," Phineas-1 said. "Do you feel okay?"
"Yeah, I don't need your sympathy," Phineas-2 grumbled.
"For my counterpart, you seem to act a bit snippy," Phineas-1 commented.
"Look here, kid. I'm in a really bad mood. Candace won't allow me to participate in the battle, but she thinks that with you, you'll beat them like Hercules. Also, I try to make a robot that organizes clothes and, just my luck, it burns Isabella's. Her, of all people! She'll probably hate me forever."
"It seems you have taken a liking to Isabella of your dimension."
"Sorry Sir Happy-Go-Lucky. You may like Isabella from your dimension, but mine is different. She is dark, cold, and mean. She thinks she's all tough. Well, I've already proved to be tougher than her."
"There must be something we are alike in. Do you invent?"
"You saw how that worked out."
"Have you done the impossible?"
"Does eating bad sushi on purpose count?"
"How about-."
"Enough! Get it through your triangular shaped head. We may look alike but our personalities are not the same. You're a ray of sunshine and I'm a storm cloud. You help people with your gadgets and gizmos. I just want to protect them. Do you understand? Whatever mindless young boy you once knew is gone."
"Wow. You miss a lot when you leave a dimension."
*Isabella*
"Hey Isabella. Whatchya doin?" Isabella-1 greeted.
"This is not a good time. May I suggest going back to your dimension?" Isabella-2 snapped.
"Geez. Lay off the hatorade," Isabella-1 said.
"I'm in a mood. I suggest you leave before I break your neck."
"Is this about your fight with Phineas?"
"Yes! He is always trying to be nice to me for some reason. He tries to help me and it always ends in disaster. That stupid robot burned my clothes. Luckily, I still have a few outfits. I'm glad I decapitated it. Phineas should just leave me alone."
"If he's anything like my Phineas, he must be quite the charmer."
"If he was anything like your Phineas, his sister would let him fight. He's too weak and innocent. Even though he acts tough, he's a wimp when Normbots come."
"Maybe if you could help him train-."
"I will not help the little runt train."
"He's three months older than you."
"All the more reason to be ashamed."
"We're so compatible."
"We're not. I'm tough; you're fluff. I'm hot; you're not. My favorite things are reading, video games, and my taser while you like horses, glitter, and obsessing about your Phineas. I'm fashionable and you look like rainbow barf. If it weren't for our looks, we might as well be strangers.
*Perry and Penny*
"Where is your other dimension self?" Penny asked Perry.
The platypus asked of walked onto the scene.
"Waddup, Perry?" Platyborg asked.
"Hey Platyborg. Meet Penny. Penny, meet Platyborg," Perry said.
"Yo," Penny replied.
"Why are you speaking English?" Platyborg asked.
"We need to communicate with our owners to save the world," Perry answered.
"Way to give it to him, Perry," Penny said.
"Cool. Too bad I won't be here to help you guys," Platyborg commented.
"Cool-wait what?" Perry asked.
"Natty MC needs me. Sorry. Anyway, I got to go before I'm too annoyingly late. Hot girlfriend by the way," Platyborg said as he rushed off.
"He's awesome! Not just because he said I'm hot!" Penny yelled. "A total opposite of you, though."
"How is that?" Perry asked.
"In reference to an Ice Age 2 line, I'm fun and you're no fun at all. I complete you."
"I'm fun. I participated in a brawl in a restaurant and went to a carnival."
"The fight was started because of me and I practically had to drag your tail all the way over there so you wouldn't be eating popcorn in a bathroom shouting, 'Why Lauren, why?" (Reference these events to My First Brawl and Carnival Makeup story)
"I will prove I'm fun like my counterpart."
"Good. Now, where's my person?"
"Maybe she'll come at the end of this story."
"Perry! Fourth wall, remember?"
"Whatever. I just hope that everyone else has better luck."
*Candace and Jeremy*
"Tell me why you don't want your brothers to help us?" Jeremy demanded.
"My parents were taken by Normbots, Jeremy. They just can't go. It's my job to protect them," Candace replied.
"What better way to take care of them than they being by your side?"
"I have trusted people to take care of them."
"Just let them grow up."
"I grew up so they didn't have to."
"You just can't let go."
"I knew you wouldn't understand."
*No one*
I really don't want to write a Buford and Baljeet part so I'm going to say that they didn't do so well, either.
[Isabella-2]
Little girly, let me tell you something. We don't tolerate your innocence.
[Isabella-1]
At least I'm not a cold-blooded marauder with no heart. Now that makes sense.
[Buford-2]
Don't go try to act tough 'cause I know it won't work for you.
[Buford-1]
I should be a little scared now because I know it may be true.
[Baljeet-2]
Look Mr. Smarty Pants, can't you just stay out of my way?
[Baljeet-1]
You know if you had half a mind you would be begging me to stay.
[Phineas-2]
Oh look. Mr. Sun is here. Let me get my shades to block the view.
[Phineas-1]
Hey! You know we're all in this together so suck it up and let's get through.
[Jeremy]
You don't always have to be strong.
[Candace]
But what if things go wro-o-ong. Oh!
[Chorus]
You know I don't like you. I'm feeling hatred too. We can't let you in unless riskin' to fall. I mean, is this a test? Then I'll let fate do the rest. Now I guess…the feeling's mutual.
[Isabella-2]
Hey you! I told you scram. This aint recess, this is war.
[Isabella-1]
Well, according to Monogram, I've already done this before.
[Buford-2]
I'm sorry but do you really think you can just get by by being tough.
[Buford-1]
It's working our dimension so for me that is enough.
[Baljeet-2]
You may be working gadgets and gizmos but this is high technology.
[Baljeet-1]
Well technically we are the same person so you are not smarter than me.
[Phineas-2]
Look Mr. Optimistic, you're not helping, you're bringing me down.
[Phineas-1]
I know with a little work we can turn that smile back around.
[Jeremy]
You don't have to be an introvert.
[Candace]
Why not when I'm always feeling hur-urt? Woah.
[Chorus]
[Isabella-1]
You know you like me. Don't try to fight it.
[Isabella-2]
Whatever you say, I will deny it.
[Buford-2]
Why do it?
[Buford-1]
For fun.
[Baljeet-1]
Continue.
[Baljeet-2]
We're done.
[Phineas-2]
You'll help me?
[Phineas-1]
I can.
[Candace and Jeremy]
Why can't you understand?
[Chorus}
They all leave the rooms they are in.
"All right. Listen up. You know what happened last time we went up against Doofenshmirtz. This is nothing like that. He has allies now since Platyborg is gone. One of them goes by the name, Mitch. We need extensive training…4days!" Candace announced.
"Um…Candace?" Phineas-1 asked.
"Yes, Phineas," Candace sighed.
"We don't remember anything from the earlier battle because someone apparently made sure we didn't remember," Phineas-1 replied.
"We'll have to fix that, don't we? Firestorm Girls, assemble!" Candace ordered.
The Firestorm Girls walked up to the front of the room.
Back when Danville was new.
The Tri-State was down on its luck.
And everywhere gigantic brutes called Normbots ran amok.
It was a nasty place.
There was a mess wherever you stepped.
Where chaos reigned and blasters and death lasers never slept.
And along came us.
We kicked their robot jazzie and did it all while still looking classy.
And on our own stopped Doofy in his tracks.
And that's the Gospel Truth.
We were too type A to just relax.
And that's Danville's first dish.
We saved the city while still in our youth.
Though, honey, it may seem impossible that's the Gospel Truth.
In our town, life was neat, smooth as sweet vermouth.
Though, honey, it may seem impossible that's the Gospel Truth.
"Enough explanations. Dr. Baljeet and Buford show the group to the training room and you two will follow me into my office after. You too, brothers," Candace directed.
*a few minutes later in the office with 2 dimensioners*
"Why did you call us here?" Phineas asked suspiciously.
"I called you here because I'm not allowing any of you to fight," Candace said.
"What!" the boys cried.
"It's too dangerous for any of you to go. Phineas and Ferb, I need to keep you safe. Buford, you are too easily distracted and can't follow orders since you're "resisting us". Baljeet, I'm sorry to say but you can't even hold a gun, let alone fire one. I need to make arrangements for all of you to stay and be protected until this is over," Candace stated.
"This isn't fair," Buford said.
"What do you mean by that?" Baljeet questioned.
"Can you at least give us a chance?" Phineas-2 pleaded.
"Not unless you guys can make yourselves rock solid soldiers in 4 days. Now go in the conference room while I make arrangements," Candace scoffed. The boys left.
*in the conference room*
"Phineas-2 says, "I can't take this!"
"Candace calls the shots, kid," Buford replies. They all sigh.
[Phineas]
Some nights, I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights, I call it a draw
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore...
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Phineas stands up on a table.
[Phineas]
This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for? And that's alright; I found a martyr in my bed tonight
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype - save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked, but here they come again to jack my style
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh, who am I? mmm... mmm...
[Ferb]
Well, some nights, I wish that this all would end
[Baljeet]
Cause I could use some friends for a change
[Phineas]
And some nights, I'm scared you'll forget me again
[Buford]
Some nights, I always win, I always win...
[All]
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know... (Come on)
[Baljeet]
So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
[Buford]
Washed my hands of that for this?
[Ferb]
I miss my mom and dad for this?
[Phineas]
No. When I see stars, when I see, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like this one, so come on
[Buford]
Oh, come on.
[Ferb]
Oh, come on,
[Baljeet]
OH COME ON!
[Phineas]
Well, this is it guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
[Buford]
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
[Ferb]
This one is not for the folks at home; sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
[Baljeet]
Who the _ wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?
[Phineas]
My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she call "love"
When I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible lies...ahhh...
[All]
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
"So men, we train and become the best soldiers Candace Flynn has ever seen; are you in?" asked Phineas.
They cheered and walked out of the room. The troopers barged into the office.
"What are you doing here?" Candace demanded to know.
"We'd like to take you up on your offer," Buford said.
"What offer?" Candace asked.
"The nice one you made about us coming 'rock solid soldiers in 4 days," Phineas answered. Candace pondered this for a moment.
"Fine," she agreed. "I'm giving you all 4 days! Move out and the next time I see you in here, it better be for a good reason. Understand?"
"Mam, yes, mam," they replied and left.
*outside the training room*
"Has anyone been inside the training room before?" Phineas-2 asked. They all shook their heads.
"It can't be that hard, can it?" Buford-2 asked.
"They are, at my guess, computer simulations. I did not design this," Baljeet-2 explained.
"Let's just start at the first level," said Ferb-2.
"What could possibly go wrong?" Phineas-2 asked.
*a few minutes later*
The boys were panting with their clothes torn and scorched.
"Never ask that again, Dinnerbell," Buford-2 ordered.
"You said they were computer simulations, Baljeet!" Phineas-2 argued.
"I did not design this painful contraption,"Baljeet-2 argued.
"Don't waste your breath, guys. We have 4 more days of this," Ferb reminded them. They all groaned.
A/N: The end of the 3rd chapter. Did you guys like the songs I wrote? I do not own Some Nights by FUN. I also don't own the original Gospel Truth song. I don't own any of the Phineas and Ferb characters. WOW. I do own Penny, I hope. On a random note, did you ever notice Daffy Duck and Sylvester both have the same speech impediment? Ciao!
