I do not own 'The Hunger Games', 'Phineas and Ferb' or anything related.


A drop of liquid plopped on Phineas. He started to sparkle, before returning to normal. He saw that the same had happened to Ferb. It looked like they were in some kind of infirmary. In the same room were Monogram and Doofensmirtz.

"While dismantling the arena," Monogram explained, holding up a vial, "They found this part of the sink's pipework that you two had built. It looked like the District 6 boy's spit had been collected in it. Luckily there was enough to turn all of you back to normal."

All of them?

"Wait, does that mean – Steven and Connie, are they alright? And what about the remaining careers-?"

"Fine, fine. They're all fine, everyone you yadda yaddaed have been reverted to normal, and are in perfect health. Although I can't say the same for the District 2's arm. He'll likely need a prosthetic."

"Where are they? I need to see them-"

"Everyone else has already been sent home. You two are the last to be de-yadda yadded."

Monogram and Doofensmirtz led them out of the infirmary and towards their apartment.

"I must say, the way you used one of the deadliest weapons in the arena and made it un-deadly so that it incapacitated everyone and ended the games. An ingenious tactic."

"I just wished I could have saved everyone," Said Phineas, thinking of Mabel and Dipper, Go-Go and Hiro, and everyone else who was not so lucky.

"Yes," Said Doofensmirtz, "Certainly ingenious the way you th-"

He was interrupted by Monogram coughing. After entering their apartment, Phineas and Ferb were sat down and Monogram sat opposite them.

"Now then, I need you two to explain to me your thought process for coming up with what you did."

"Well, after hearing what Marco said about them making modifications to the yadda yadda berries, I realised that it wasn't meant to turn people to dust. I then realised that if the poison was distilled, then it could just temporarily turn people to stone rather than to dust."

"And your reasoning for coming up with this plan?"

Phineas was surprised at this question.

"What do you mean? I just wanted to save everyone."

"Regardless of the consequences?"

This confused Phineas.

"Consequences? What are you talking about?"

Frowning, Monogram bent further towards them, as if analysing what he had just said. Eventually, he coughed and said "Nothing."

"So, since everyone left survived, who won the games?"

"Well, there's been a debate about that. It was decided that since the canon went off for everyone else, that would only have left you two."

"So, which of us won?"

"Well, it was hard to determine which of you were yadda yaddaed first, so it was decided that you both won."

Later, they were led back to the hall where they were interviewed by Felus. To Phineas' surprise, the President was also on stage, and he seemed to be fuming. Phineas looked out at the audience, and notice there was an uneasy silence.

Also to his surprise, the president, rather than Felus, was the one interviewing him.

"So Phineas, that strategy you came up with so that all of the remaining tributes were only turned to stone temporarily, but long enough for the games to be discontinued. I think everyone here would like to know what was going through your head when you came up with that."

Phineas gave him the same answer as he did Monogram.

"And your reason for coming up with this plan?"

"I just wanted to save everyone remaining."

"Regardless of the consequences?" The president asked.

Again, Phineas was confused by this question.

"I'm sorry. I don't know what you mean by consequences."

Like Monogram, the president frowned and leaned forward, as if verifying the verity of what Phineas had just said.

"And the fact that you made your concoction without the capital's knowing?"

"That was just for the surprise!"

"Really? That's it? You just wanted to surprise the capital?"

"Yeah!"

"Seriously?"

"Well, at first I didn't think of it, until Connie mentioned how to make it without the capital's knowing, so then I thought it would be a good twist."

The president considered what he said.

"Ohhh, shoot, you mean it, don't you?"

"Well, wasn't it a good twist? I mean you yourself once said that you'd like it if the games' ending wasn't always so predictable."

Phineas heard the President muttering. It sounded something like "How can someone as ingenious as you be so oblivious?"

"Yes, well, I take it you're not aware then that by saving the remaining tributes that you BROKE THE RULES?"

"Wh-what?"

Nothing that was said shocked Phineas more than what the president said right now. It's true that the games are supposed to end with one remaining tribute, but he thought he found a loophole, and said so to the president.

"Yes, well I'm afraid you did."

"Oh, I'm-"

Phineas was about to say he was sorry, but he couldn't. Because he wasn't sorry at all. Not for saving anyone. Not Steven or Connie or the remaining careers, and definitely not for saving Ferb. If anything, he was sorry that he couldn't save everyone.

"-It was never my intention to break the rules."

"Well then, if you knew what you did now, that by saving the others you had in fact broken the rules, would you have done it all over again?"

It shouldn't have been a hard question, but it was. Even though Phineas could never support the regime he lived in, at the same time he didn't think of himself as a rule breaker. Oh sure, maybe at times he went in places where he shouldn't have gone, but he was always able to placate the soldiers. At the same time, though, if he knew then what he did now, that trying to save the remaining tributes would mean his family would suffer the consequences of his actions, but at the same time not wanting anyone else to…he knew what answer the president wanted from him, but he couldn't give it to him. For one thing, Phineas wasn't a liar. So this was the answer he gave him.

"I've never thought of myself as a rule breaker."

"Hmm."

The president, frowning, considered what he said. The audience had also leaned in, waiting for the president's judgement.

"Oh well, lucky for you that once you go into the arena, you're disqualified for going in twice, aren't you?"

Taking the crown meant for the victor, the president pulled it in two, placing one half on Ferb's head and the other on Phineas.

"Everyone, please welcome the victors of the 74th Hungry Games, Phineas and Ferb!"

Everyone gave a polite clap.


"You two did it!"

Sammy had jumped on both of them after the interview.

"You did it! You won! You won the Hungry Games! I'm so happy! I've never had a winning tribute before, I mean I have, but never from District 1, especially not two! Oh, you should have seen the look on Teneko's face when MY tribute beat HIS!"


After packing up, the two went on the train home. Home. Phineas couldn't have imagined that he would be going home, at least not with his brother. Let alone knowing that he had helped save 6 other tributes.

While the train went through the portal, everyone watched the TV. The Hungry Games concluded with interviews from each district's escort and mentors, from 13 to 1.

"So tell me, how do you feel over your tributes' defeat?" Felus asked the escort for District 13, named GASH, who was sobbing uncontrollably.

"This is why I don't let him watch 'happy tree friends'," Said the Snake coming out of his head.

One of the mentors, Badgerclops, was also in tears.

"Yes, it's always disappointing when a tribute dies," Said the other mentor, Mao Mao, "Especially so early in the games."

"I'm not happy about their defeat," Said the escort for District 12, Dr Mad Scientist, "I mean sure, yes, the boy was slated for slaughter, but I had hoped that at the least the girl would have had the strength to match her intellect in order to survive. I still don't understand how she didn't recognise that berry she ate was a Yadda Yadda berry."

"Yes it was certainly tragic to see such two young people with great potential die," Said one of the mentors, named Stan.

"Huh," Tutted the other mentor, named Momakase, "I'm surprised the boy survived as long as he did, and I am disappointed that the girl didn't. I really thought she would win."

"Sniff, it was so sad what happened!" Mourned Ben, one of the co-escorts for District 11, "So very, very- wait a minute, aren't we the escorts for District 3? I'm pretty sure that was mentioned."

"Oh, Anonymius retconned that," Felus explained, "He thought Handy was better suited for that District."

The two mentors, Scrooge McDuck and Mrs Beakley, were confused.

"Anonymius? Retconned? What the blazes are you two on about?" Scrooge asked.

"OK seriously," Said Quasi, the other escort for District 11, "How does Deadpool break the fourth wall without anyone no-"

"PROCESSING," Computed the escort for District 10, Metallus, "ERROR. UNABLE TO COINCIDE PARAMETERS OF AGE, HEIGHT AND FIGHTING ABILITY OF FEMALE DISTRICT 10 TRIBUTE LESS THAN AGE HEIGHT AND FIGHTING ABILITY OF MALE DISTRICT 4 TRIBUTE. PROCESSING. STRENGTH AND POWER LEVELS OF DISTRICT 10 MALE TRIBUTE HIGH. INTELLIGENCE LEVEL LOW. PARAMETERS OF DEFEAT BY DISTRICT 1 AND 6 TRIBUTES SATISFACTORY."

The two mentors, Carol and Garth, stared at him.

"Um, yes," Said Carol, "Well, it was a shock to everyone how Enid was easily defeated by that kid with no powers or training."

"And even though Rad was strong and powerful, it's not surprising that he was tricked by those other kids."

"Whereas I'm surprised that my tributes lasted longer than they did," Said the District 9 escort, Shadow Witch, "I'm not surprised that the girl was easily tricked by the other tributes. And with her gone, it was all over for the boy, losing all will to fight."

"Yes, it was a dirty trick they played on Star in order to win," Commented one of the mentors, named River.

The other mentor, Sensei, sniffed.

"Poor Marco. You could see how heartbroken he was over the lost of his fellow tribute!"

"Honestly, at this point I'm used to losing," Said the escort for District 7.

"Hey, these are kids' lives that were lost!" Shouted one of the mentors, named Sylvia, at the escort.

"Even if they proved not to have the calibre of a victor," commented the other mentor, Brad Starlight.

Sylvia was clearly angry at his words.

"I feel cheated. Cheated!" Complained the escort for District 6, Scorpius, "Steven was unbeatable. UNBEATABLE! But nooooo, he had to make allies with Phineas and Ferb who fuelled his pacifism and come up with a plan that meant – um – not as many died as usual."

"Honestly, I'm surprised the girl lasted as long as she did," Commented one of the mentors, Handsome Hank Hackleschmidt.

"Yeah. And even though Steven was strong and fast, he was too gentle for the arena," Commented the other mentor, Dashing Danny Doober.

"Oh sure he was gentle," Said the escort, "But when given no other choice he would have done what was necessary to survive. Or at least to protect his fellow tribute."

"Um, no offence, Mr Scorpius, but I think I know my tribute better than you," Said Dashing Danny.

"Yes, quite," replied Scorpius, his eyes darting from side to side.

"Honestly, although I'm not surprised that the girl lost I'm annoyed I mean unsurprised that Randy also lost. Yes," said the escort for District 5.

"Yes it was a tragic loss for District 5," Lamented one of the mentors, S. Ward Smith.

"Oh well," Said the other mentor, Mrs Driscoll, cheerfully, "There's always next year, right Mr Driscoll?" She said to a skeleton next to her, manipulating it like a ventriloquist doll, saying "If at first you don't succeed, thigh and thigh again!"

"I am infuriated over my loss!" Said the escort for District 4, Flaming Skull, almost setting the room ablaze, "If the girl hadn't been distracted by that grappling hook they would have won."

"Don't you dare blame Mabel you disembodied skull!" Snarled one of the mentors, Stan.

"Stan, please," The other mentor, Ford, placed his hands on the other's shoulders, "I must apologise on behalf of my brother, Mr Felus, the loss of Mabel and Dipper had hit us very hard-"

"Just what did you do to Dipper?" Stan demanded to know, "there was nothing left of him but blood and hair! ANSWER ME YOU-"

He lunged at Felus and the camera, which quickly cut to the next team.

"Honestly," Said the escort for District 11, Handy, a giant hand, "there's really no need to get invested when you know that your tributes are going to fail, especially not surviving the bloodbath."

The two mentors, Rigby and Mortecai, had nothing to add.

Then it was the District 2 team.

"Oh well," Said the escort, Teneko, "I'm used to losing at this point, and I'm glad it was Phineas and Ferb who won. Sure I would have preferred Star and Marco or Enid and Rad, but Phineas and Ferb were good as well."

"Any comment you'd like to make, Mr Dog?" Felus asked one of the mentors, Jake, who remained silent.

"And how about you, Miss Vampire Queen?"

"Sorry, I'm still cut up over what happened to PB. The female district 2 tribute I mean."

"And your feelings over the District 2 male tribute?"

"Finn's been dead to me the moment Bonnie was."

Finally came the interview for the District 1 team, the winning district.

"So Samantha, how do you feel over your unexpected victory in the games?"

"I'm ecstatic!"

Sammy was jumping up and down.

"I've never had a winning district before! I mean I have, but we don't talk about that one and another one cheated, but I haven't had not just one but two prominent victors that we can talk about and who didn't cheat, well ok they did break the rules but that was unintentional, and yes I did have one like that but not in a long time! No one believed that District 1 could ever produce another victor!"

"So Mr Monogram, how do you feel about your victory?"

"Yes I am very pleased to have helped another tribute become a victor."

"It was certainly not how I would have won the games, though," Commented Doofensmirtz.

"Nor I," Said Monogram.

Phineas' mind couldn't help but drift back to those who were still lost, those he knew, and those he didn't know.

But they would be going home to everyone they knew and love. And what's more, they'll be able to move into a big house, and have so much money they won't know what to do with it! Phineas also knew that after the games, victors were supposed to have a talent. He already knew what his and Ferb's was, so maybe from now on they'll be able to test what they build themselves, and have their friends and the entire district join in as well.

"You know what, Ferb?" Phineas said to his brother.


"I think things can only get better from now on."

From his throne room, Wacko watched as the train went into the sunset. Felus and Sammy were with him.

"Yes, well Phineas, I'm afraid that in your aspirations for 'Happily Ever After' you've overlooked one important detail: the sequel."

Wacko got off from his throne, walking out of the room.

"Ahahahahahaha. AHAHAHAHAHAAH! AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Felus and Sammy watched as their master walked out of the room.

"Well at least Boss is still in good spirits after the whole thing!" Sammy told Felus.

Felus sighed.
