CHAPTER 11- So. A few people guessed this one. WiiGuy got the actual episode a few chapters back, and a couple of my guest reviewers and Living Encyclopedia guessed one of her powers…I told you, the next few chapters had a lot going on in them. The next one, not as much, but there's interaction between two characters that I bet you wouldn't think of.

If I missed anyone, let me know!

And to Elizabeth…seriously, make an account. It will be much easier for me to respond to you. I will say that you've guessed quite a few things, and I won't tell you which ones, so that I can save the surprise for everyone else.

I don't own Phineas and Ferb.


Ferb glanced up, caught her eye, and gave her the smallest of smiles.


GENERAL POV


Candace sighed and crossed her arms over her chest, slumping onto the bed on the lower deck. She couldn't believe that she had to go on this dumb boating trip with her family. She was probably going to miss Jeremy's party.

Isabella poked her head in the room. "Candace, come on. Stop moping. Come up top and do something. The water is really calm right now, so there's nothing to worry about."

Candace sighed and slid into her sneakers, trudging up the stairs after Isabella. "If I miss Jeremy's party, I'm blaming all of you," she muttered.

Isabella rolled her eyes. "Ok, Candace. Why don't you tan or something?"

Candace shrugged. "Fine. I'm tanning now. Don't bother me."

Isabella chuckled and Candace flopped into a chair that was on deck, throwing on her sunglasses over her eyes. Isabella went off to do something with Phineas and Ferb and Candace had to admit that lying there was pretty relaxing.

She smiled slightly and leaned back, staring at the clouds, which were moving rather quickly. Her skin suddenly got colder and with her sunglasses on, it was much harder to see.

"Ok, who turned off the sun?" she asked, pulling off her sunglasses and sitting up, looking around in annoyance.

She glanced over at Isabella, who was holding her Fireside Girl handbook and reading off a page to Phineas, the wind whipping her hair. "Oh, here it is. The red flag with the black box means-" she paused briefly as lightening flashed overhead. "Storm warning!" the girl said anxiously.

Candace jumped off the chair and darted over to her brothers and Isabella. It started pouring and Candace ran for the overhang that was on the cabin so she wouldn't get wet.

"You kids, get below!" her father yelled.

They didn't hear the rest of his sentence, because the four were downstairs in seconds, Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella all huddling together on one of the beds.

Candace looked at them, wanting to go crawl under the covers and hide, but she headed up the steps, stopping just short of going into the rain to see what was going on.

"Lawrence!" she heard her mother shriek from the other side of the boat. "We're heading for that whirlpool!"

Candace felt her heart stop and she peered around the corner. Sure enough, a whirlpool was swirling menacingly a couple of yards away.

Candace ducked into the closet that was at her right and pulled out her rain slicker. She slid it on and yanked the hood over her head, stepping out a bit more onto the boat.

She felt someone brush her elbow and she looked down at Ferb, whose eyebrows were creased in worry. "You aren't going out in that, are you?" he asked softly.

Candace glanced out at the raging sea and shook her head. "No. I don't know what I'm going to do."

The boat pitched horribly and she heard her mother scream. Candace threw her hands out to either side of her to keep her balance, almost whacking Ferb in the process. The boat suddenly righted itself, despite the wind, rain, and currents.

Candace straightened up and helped Ferb off the ground. They both almost fell over again as the boat started tossing in the waves once more. They started moving in a circular direction, and Candace grabbed Ferb and pulled him to the floor with her, pressing her back against the wall.

"Do that again!" Ferb suddenly yelled.

Candace looked at him in utter confusion. "Do what?"

"Your hands! I think you stopped the boat from turning over!"

Candace pulled herself up by the side of the boat, her knees trembling as she fought to maintain her balance and not get soaked.

She glanced at Ferb who gave her an encouraging nod, and she thrust her hands out to either side of her.

Sure enough, the boat righted itself. Candace's eye's widened and she glanced around towards where her parents were. They were still in the whirlpool, but her father was having an easier time controlling the boat.

Candace hesitantly pushed her hands towards the right, and the boat was pushed up and over the edge of the whirlpool. Her mother and father started cheering and Candace looked down at Ferb, who was grinning from ear to ear.

"How did you know-?" She couldn't finish her statement of disbelief.

Ferb shrugged. "I didn't. I took an educated guess. It was worth a shot."

Candace ruffled Ferb's hair affectionately. "Well, thanks to you, we didn't die by whirlpool. But do you see land anywhere?"

Ferb glanced around, clutching to the banister as the boat started tossing again. Candace pushed her hands out, more sure of herself this time, and the boat fixed itself.

Ferb shook his head and Candace looked around, holding her hands firm. "There!" she cried, nodding her head towards a large blob in the distance.

Her brother nodded and Candace looked at him. "Do you think I can get us there?" she asked nervously.

Ferb gave her a reassuring smile and Candace grinned in determination. She pushed her hands away from the land and the water almost automatically responded, sending the boat flying towards the land mass she had seen.

"Whoa! Lawrence, look! Land!" she heard her mother yell.

With her father steering the boat and Candace holding it steady, they were able to fight through the storm until the land was clearer.

Candace's heart sank when she saw the rocks.

They were enormous, some being ten or fifteen feet taller than the boat. "What now?" she whispered.

Ferb paused and glanced around. "Use a wave."

Candace glanced down at him and he nodded firmly. "Like, the actual wave?"

Ferb chuckled. "Why not?"

Candace shrugged. "Wait, what about timing? If I do it too late, we'll miss. Too early, and I'll hit the rocks."

Ferb held up his hand, staring intently at the rocks. Candace remembered that he was quite good with math, and was probably calculating a million things in his head.

He brought his hand down, the meaning obvious, and Candace, feeling quite stupid, threw her arms up as if doing the wave at a ball game.

She looked back and yelped in surprise, dragging Ferb back into the stairs after seeing an enormous wave coming at them. They were thrown into the air, and the boat went flying.

Isabella and Phineas stumbled up the stairs, their eyes wide. "What's going on?" Phineas yelled.

Before anyone could respond, the boat landed with a thud and the kids were thrown out of the stairwell and into the sand, tumbling head over heels, Candace losing her coat in the process.

Candace picked herself up a few moments later and wrenched the sea animals off of her face.

Ferb walked over to her and held out his hand, his eyes twinkling and his other arm adjusting his shirt sleeve. Candace took the hand and he hauled her to her feet. "Good work," he said softly.


Candace stormed back towards where her father was fixing the boat, intent on finally busting Phineas and Ferb…and, to a lesser extent, Isabella.

Speaking of…

The three kids raced past her and Phineas looked back. "Run Candace!" he cried. "Pink lava behind you!"

Candace turned in confusion. "Pink lava?"

Sure enough, pink something came out of nowhere. Candace yelped and sprinted after her brothers and Isabella.

"Women and children first!" her father yelped, practically shoving everyone on board.

He climbed up after them and Candace glanced back, utterly astounded when she spotted Perry clinging to an ironing board.

She grabbed a rope and tossed it down. Perry grabbed it, glanced up, and grinned. Candace quickly turned her back so that no one would get suspicious on the way back.

"Can't we make this thing go any faster?" Candace asked.

Ferb glanced over at her, a small grin playing on his lips, and Candace realized that she could make the boat go faster.

She paused, glanced back, and thrust her hands backwards. The boat's speed picked up rapidly.

If only she could have seen Perry's astonished face. It was priceless.


Priceless. Yup.

So I know the power originally comes from the show H2O, so I'll just say that I don't own it. But it's relevant to a few other chapters, and my sequel crossover, if you guys want me to do that. Let me know!

(Psst. That means review!)
