Wow, I haven't updated ANYTHING for a while now. The good news is that I have more story ideas. The bad news is that I don't have time to do them all at once! Lol, anyway, I went and saw Wreck-it Ralph a couple weeks ago, and I LOVED it! I am obsessed with it. I even have a story planned out…same with another Pokemon story starring Ash and the gang, along with a new OC I created JUST for that story (movie), and the starring legendary…wait for it…MELOETTA! It's soooooo cute, and I just wanna hug it and now…Shaymin isn't my favorite anymore *gasp*, yeah it's Meloetta now. Anyway, once I have time for those stories I will put them up, but right now, I gotta focus on the stories I have yet to finish. Dolls and Memories will be at a very long hold at least until I finish a couple more stories. Those of you that are anxiously awaiting that one to be updated, you're gonna have to wait. Sorry. Wow, that is one of my longest rants ever lol.

Disclaimer: I do not own Phineas and Ferb, but I do own Marissa, Brietta and Wenlock

Brietta stared at Marissa in an awed expression. There's no way she was letting Marissa go to the Lair of Darkness…especially not alone. She grabbed Marissa's hand, but Marissa just jerked it away.

"Hold on Marissa. Think about what you're doing here. You're not going to the Lair of Darkness. Anybody that went there never made it out. Well…they never made it out alive or still good," Brietta said.

Everyone but Marissa shuddered at the thought of what Wenlock would do to Phineas. Marissa stood there with an annoyed/angered expression, and she glared at Brietta. Clearly she didn't want Phineas to be saved and she wanted Phineas to turn evil and destroy the world. Obviously, Wenlock would do it by force. Phineas wouldn't have a choice. It would be against his will and he'd be unable to control it. The whole world would be mad at him for turning evil, but what they wouldn't know is that it's not his fault. Marissa pondered over this, and she just continued to walk in her determined/glare-like expression. Brietta saw her trying to walk away, and she grabbed her arm again.

"Marissa, listen to me! I can't let you go there, especially alone! It's too dangerous!" Brietta shouted, but Marissa jerked out of her grip again.

"I don't care anymore! If I get killed trying to save Phineas, at least I TRIED, unlike SOMEBODY!" Marissa yelled, and continued to walk.

Brietta was hurt by her accusation of not trying to help Phineas, but in a way…Marissa was right. She should have tried to help her young apprentice more than she has been. They should have found better hiding places to rest at. Poor Phineas who was so innocent and purely good, is now going to be forcibly turned evil, and Marissa who was obviously not going to be convinced out of going to the Lair of Darkness, was probably going to join him, or be destroyed.

Marissa, noticing Brietta not speaking anymore, nodded in an angered expression, and she said, "That's what I thought."

She continued to walk, but was once again stopped by Brietta. "Please Marissa! I know you can't bear it if anything happened to Phineas, but you can't just waltz in there! You won't make it out alive or still good!"

"I don't care! I'm going to the Lair of Darkness, and NOBODY is going to stop me!" Marissa shouted clearly angered almost to her boiling point.

Everyone was silent. All that could be heard was Marissa's footsteps through the grass as she angrily stomped away. After a few moments of silence, Marissa felt her hand get jerked back again. Finally at her boiling point, she turned around furiously and shouted at the person who grabbed her.

"I TOLD YOU! NOBODY IS GOING TO STOP ME!" she shouted…only to realize that it wasn't Brietta who grabbed her. It was Ferb…

Ferb stared at her in a pleading yet determined expression. Marissa seeing she yelled at her step brother for no reason, Marissa sighed, and she hugged Ferb.

"Ferb, I didn't know it was you…I thought it was Brietta," she said apologetically.

Ferb didn't take his eyes or expression off of his step sister. He could tell she was hurt and not thinking straight. That, plus going to the Lair of Darkness ALONE, would mean that she would be destroyed or turned to the darkness for sure. Marissa realizing she didn't actually hurt Ferb by yelling at him, but by the way she's hurt right now, stood back up.

"I'm sorry Ferb, but I have to go. I'm going to save Phineas, or die or lose myself trying," she said, and she walked away, but Ferb didn't move let go of his grip on her.

"You're not going to the Lair of Darkness…not alone," he said.

Marissa turned around and smiled at her British step brother. She then looked at everyone else who also had an expression that said they were ready for action.

"Hey, you're not leaving us out of this Marissa. You aren't the only one that's worried about Phineas. If you're going to the Lair of Darkness to save Phineas, so are we," Isabella said.

"You got that right," Heinz said.

"Ditto on that," Candace said.

Perry chattered in a determined expression. Marissa smiled that everyone was on the same page as her…all except one…

"WAIT! WHOA, WHOA, WHOA! Everyone, I know you wanna save Phineas, but…I'm telling you, we won't make it out alive. You guys will be destroyed or turned to the darkness, but me…well, I'll probably be destroyed. You guys need to look at the big picture here. Wenlock is powerful and he has MANY powerful allies. It's too dang-"

Candace had enough of Brietta saying that. She after all knew that when it came to Phineas, Marissa would take a bullet for him, and when she's made her mind about Phineas, it can't be changed. She got up in Brietta's face surprising everyone…especially Brietta.

"If you're gonna finish that with 'too dangerous', then don't. Marissa and everyone else has dealt with FAR worse than a dragon. We've dealt with wizards, vampires, robots, creatures called Pokemon, other supernatural and fantasy creatures. A dragon is actually possibly a step BACK! Now, we're going to the Lair of Darkness to save Phineas or die or lose ourselves trying, so are you going to take us or NOT?!"

Silence fell between the whole group. Marissa closed her eyes thinking Brietta was going to say no. The others awaited her response. After about a minute of thinking and silence, Brietta looked toward Marissa and sighed.

"I'll leave this to you Marissa," she said.

Marissa stood there with a determined but closed eyes expression. Everyone looked at her awaiting her response now. She opened her eyes in a glaring way, and she looked at the fourth wall (which in the direction she's looking at is also where everyone else is standing).

"I lost Phineas once…I'm not losing him again."

Well, I hope this was long enough to hold you off until next chapter. I think I might work on Evil Phineas Trilogy now. Anyway, please review and Carpe Diem!
