Disclaimer: I don't own Phineas and Ferb.

Enjoy!

Tired. Confused. Beaten. Lost.

This is how Isabella felt right now. She thought everything would be okay. She thought they could get out of there with a new ally, but no. Instead, he had to take Ferb. Right when she was going to break down and ask Phineas what to do, he passed out. Well, he did have a lot of fighting going on after, well, being left in a torture room for at least a day. A full on, 24 hour day.

She whimpered and looked around frantically. She looked for a sign, anything. Instead, she heard a voice, but not a kind, soft one, but a harsh-sounding one. It was a man, and he sounded angry, like he could kill, and honestly would.

Isabella began to panic yet again, and tried to find a hiding spot. Finally, she spotted something. It was a short, but long table with supply boxes under it. She could easily squeeze in between the boxes. Isabella began sprinting towards it, but then it dawned on her. She left her unconscious lover on the ground over there. She practically left him to die. She bit her lip and looked off towards the voice. It was getting closer, and it was coming quickly. She had 5, 10 seconds at most.

Phineas would want her to be safe, completely, 100% safe. She knew this. Deep down, she really knew this. If he were awake, but too limp, he would whisper, "Go on without me," but, she knew it's not what he would do.

It wasn't what he would do if he was in her position. He would instantly go back for her, perhaps even throw her body into a hiding spot and submit himself, if it came down to it. She knew he would protect her, and she'd do the same for him.

She ran towards him, but she did so as quietly as she could. Now, she had 8 seconds. Maybe. She continued running.

7 seconds. She reached his body.

6 seconds. She picked him up.

5 seconds. He began to stir.

4 seconds. Isabella really started running.

3 seconds. The man heard her. He shouted "Who's there?"

2 seconds. Isabella took a sharp inhale of breath and prepared for the worst. She gazed at Phineas. She was so close to her hiding spot. The man still couldn't see her, he could only hear her.

1 second. She was so close. She threw Phineas behind the table. Quickly, she gazed back at the man. There was a young girl, maybe in her late teens, there talking to him.

"Have you seen any… intruders?" he asked loudly.

She looked nervous. "N-no sir." she said while nodding and practically saluting the man.

He raised an eyebrow and pushed her out of the way. Isabella quickly slid under the table and rearranged the boxes a bit. Then she turned and pulled Phineas closer to the center of the table. Perfect, it was a bit cramped, but they fit. And they were safe.

For now at least.

But they still had a huge problem. How were they going to find Ferb? When was Phineas going to wake up? Was that man going to find them? Is the author really lazy, and somewhat regretting this whole portion?

A/N Okay… short, but you better still review.

Okay, tell me what you thought. And If you haven't yet, please, give me your opinion of Samuel. The awesome thing about fanfiction . Net is that you don't even have to be a member to review.

Just tell me if he should be

-good

-bad

Maybe you could even tell me a little story about how this could happen.

By the way, someone recently reviewed and had an amazing idea. He/She said I should have him be bad, and Ferb should be really close to killing him. I'll stop there, because I may or may not use that. I am really interested in that idea.

So I hope whoever wrote that doesn't mind if I use it. It was a great idea, so thanks to the person who suggested it.
