Haunted

Chapter 9

By dsguy411

Here it is, the final chapter of the story.

Morning had finally come to the old house, and Phineas was the first to wake up and get out of bed. After changing into his clothes, he nudged Ferb and got him up. Phineas left his room and knocked on all the doors to wake up the Fireside Girls.

"Wake up, girls," he shouted, "It's time to wake up. I want to do a headcount so get dressed and report to the foyer in 10 minutes. And make sure to get Candace and Jeremy up as well."

Phineas walked down the stairs and saw that Isabella was already down at the foyer. She looked very tired as if she hadn't slept all night.

"Izzy, why do look so tired?" he asked.

Isabella yawned and said, "I woke earlier to surprise Melissa for her bravery last night."

"Oh, I see," Phineas replied.

Suddenly, they both heard footsteps coming from above. They turned around and saw the Fireside Girls all dressed up. Phineas and Isabella were amazed that none of them had left. Next, Ferb came down with Candace and Jeremy following them from behind.

"Amazing," Phineas said, "Looks like you all get the 'Ain't-Afraid-of-Anything' Patch."

He took out the patches from his pocket and handed them all to the Fireside Girls. He even gave one to Melissa and Candace. Melissa was very happy to have earned her patch while Candace looked confused.

"Excuse me," she spoke, "But why do I get a patch? I'm not even a Firestorm Girl anymore."

"That's 'Fireside Girls,'" Isabella explained, "And you got it because you stayed up all night, too. And also this: Once a Fireside Girl, always a Fireside Girl."

Candace smiled and placed the patch on her chest. Jeremy held her hand and smiled at her. He was glad that she was okay and that she accepted the patch. Isabella walked to Melissa and grabbed her hand to tell her something.

"And you," Isabella said, "I have a surprise for you."

"Really?" Melissa replied.

Isabella took Melissa back to the dining room and saw that the table was filled with lots of breakfast food. Melissa was excited to see all of this food.

"I figured that we should have breakfast before we left, so I was up all night preparing it," Isabella explained.

"Awesome!" she squealed.

"Let's dig in!" Phineas shouted.

All of the kids rushed into the dining room to begin their feast. Jeremy and Candace, however, walked out the door to get help of getting gas. They walked out and saw that Jeremy's mother's car was closer than before. Confused, Jeremy walked up to the car and saw that the gauge was on F for Full.

"Weird, I wonder who filled it up," Jeremy wondered.

"Who cares?" Candace replied, "Let's just go home before our parents call the police."

"You're right," he said, remembering that they never came home last night like they intended to, "We're probably in so much trouble."

They both got into the car and drove away from the mansion. Candace had a feeling that the haunted house would be less scary that the punishment her parents are waiting enforce on her.


Everyone was finished with their feast; they got their things upstairs, and got back to the foyer, ready to go.

"Hard to believe that all of this spooky stuff was caused by Damon, huh?" Katie asked Adyson.

"I agree," she replied.

"Yeah," Phineas said, "There's probably no such thing as ghosts anyway."

"I wouldn't be so sure about that," said a little girl's voice.

They all turned around and saw the little girl that Jeremy and Candace saw last night. However, the kids weren't buying it.

"It's probably that chameleon robot of Damon's," Phineas assumed.

Then, from the dining room, came the Copy-Meleon. They took a closer look at the girl and saw that she was slightly transparent. This gave them all scared looks.

"You know," Isabella said, scared, "We shouldn't keep our folks waiting."

"You're right," Phineas said with his knees shaking, "We already got the patch, so why stay here much longer?"

They all turned and ran out of the house as fast as they could. The little girl giggled at their scared reactions and vanished, leaving behind the Copy-Meleon who had a confused look on its face.

THE END.

Guess the house is haunted after all. XD I hope that you all liked this story. ^^
