I know I should be focused on completing one of my other stories but I just work with my inspiration so please don't be angry with me. But in any case here is the newest chapter of this story.

Skypan: … I have no idea what you said in that first line, I looked it up, and congrats.

DizzyPirate: glad to see you're enjoying it.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything or anyone except Erick. (still not sure about the others)

(Phineas's POV)

Everyone was still staring at Ferb and Vanessa like they knew what happened (I also saw Buford give Erick a $20 bill … what was that about?). I shook my head "Ferb, clean yourself up, we have to get ready for the next set of competitions" I looked over to Erick "we're in second right now right?"

Erick averted his gaze and looked toward the inators "ya but … first place has a pretty steep lead on us"

"Alright then, we still have two more competitions in the henchmen category, what are they?"

Irving looked down at the clipboard he was carrying "there's the annoying henchman and the surprise competition"

"Well that's in the bag then" Erick started "no one is more annoying than Irving"

"I'm right here Erick" Irving said with a scowl.

"Oh I know" there was an awkward silence.

"O-kay then" I started "Erick how long before the next competition starts?"

Erick looked up "about … five minutes"

"Alright then, Erick, you take Irving and Django and get ready for the next competition, Ferb, you and I will-" I froze when I turned around to see Ferb and Vanessa making out 'so that's why he has lipstick all over his face' I shook my head "um … Ferb?" both Ferb and Vanessa turned to look at me "… um … you and Vanessa … stay here and … watch the inators while … everyone else goes to the next competition … or do you want to-"

"No that's fine" Vanessa said.

The rest of us walked over to the arena "could this day get any weirder?"

Erick looked at me and smiled "you have no idea"

(Erick's POV)

The next competition was about to start and Irving was already on his way to the arena "don't worry Irving, just be yourself" I shouted at him. As the other combatants entered the arena things started to look … promising. The first one was … for lack of a better term a nerd, the second one was … more or less the same thing, and the anti-Irving was … a monkey "well it fits" I said.

(Ferb's POV)

Phineas had left me with Vanessa to watch over the inators but seeing as Phineas had already gone over the full systems check for them I could tell what he was really planning, he had left Vanessa and me alone just so that we could spend time together, and let me tell you it was defiantly working, Vanessa was on my lap with one of her hands around my neck with the other slowly walking its way up my chest "so Ferb, What's your full name?" Vanessa asked.

I was about to answer her when Dr.D came running to our platform, causing Vanessa to quickly make her way to a proper sitting position. "Vanessa! I've been looking everywhere for you, where have you been?"

"I-I was … here … with Ferb" she said trying to not attract attention to the fact that she was sitting on my lap only a few seconds ago.

Dr.D looked at us for a few seconds then shrugged "oh well, as long as you're safe, I heard a rumor about a team planning to blackmail another team by using a hostage and seeing as you are so close to these guys I wanted to make sure that you were alright"

Vanessa playfully rolled her eyes "dad I'm a grown … oh that's right" she crossed her arms and brought her knees to her chest, seeing this I wrapped my arm around her which made her smile and rest her head on my shoulder "thanks Ferb"

"Oh speaking of which, Ferb how old are you?" I looked at Dr.D confused "remember the inator made Vanessa the same age as you … right down to a difference of no more than two minutes actually so when's your birthday?"

I froze for a second 'so Vanessa and I now have the same birthday?' I blinked twice "thirteen last April"

There was a silence before Vanessa finally spoke "so does that mean that I go a whole year without a birthday party?"

I patted her on the back "Phineas and I will throw you one later this week" she hugged me as I ran my fingers through her hair.

"Okay then, I need to get back to judging" Dr.D walked away as we waved.

As soon as he was out of sight Vanessa pushed me to the ground "so where were we?"

(Phineas's POV)

I was watching as Irving walked up the stairs defeated "how do you lose to a monkey?" Erick asked a very depressed Irving.

I sighed "look it doesn't matter how Felix – I mean Irving lost to the monkey but how we are going to proceed from here"

Erick took a deep breath "Phineas is right we need to get ready for the next event, Django, ready?"

"As I'll ever be" Django made his way into the arena along with two guys' that looked like they belonged in a circus and someone that looked like Django only … darker … and female.

"And that would be?" I asked Irving.

Irving took a few moments to look at his clipboard "that would be … Djonga"

Erick looked at Irving confused "the anti-Django is a girl?" he asked.

Everyone shrugged as the announcer came back on "and the surprise event will be determined by our random wheel generator" a wheel with a bunch of question marks was brought into the arena and spun "and our mystery event is …" everyone looked closely at the wheel "lying!"

Erick walked over to a wall and started banging his head on it. I walked over to him and taped him on the shoulder "what's wrong?"

He slowly turned his head to look at me "hippies aren't allowed to lie"

I froze "that's going to be a problem then isn't it?"

So how'd you like it? I bet a lot of you are asking how Irving lost to a monkey and let me tell you that I really don't know myself. But in any case I hope you like it and continue reading this story.
