Episode 6a: Return of the Phineas

Isabella and Ferb lead a small rescue squad- - including Candace, Perry, Buford and Baljeet- -to rescue their friend, Phineas who was captured by Darthenshmirtz. The sith makes his trip through the galaxy to the new Death Star currently being constructed with his prize unconscious. Poor Phineas doesn't even realize he's in for a huge adventure.

Meanwhile, the Rebel alliance is preparing their assault on the new Death Star not knowing that some of their own allies will be destroyed in the process. Phineas is about to embark on an adventure he never thought possible.

And seriously, none of this is canon so JUST RELAX!

Deep in space, a small, weirdly shaped spaceship makes its way through the stars. Inside the ship were a mere three passengers. One of them of course was involuntary. The other two passengers stared at their captive, a small boy with spiky red hair wearing lightweight Tatooine attire. The boy was suspended in the air frozen in an expression of astonishment.

"See, Norm-3PO? I got him, and I didn't need that Force," Darthenshmirtz bragged, "Now get underneath him. I'm going to release him from my ray. If I built it right, he should be put to sleep."

Norm-3PO did as the sith ordered, and he got underneath the young floating jedi. As he'd hoped, the boy fell into the droid's arms instantly falling asleep. Darthenshmirtz then pulled the child off and held him by his robes.

"You thought you could escape me with your little escape plan, but it failed. Now, you're mine, Phineas Flynn," the sith cackled, "Norm, lock him up. He'll wake up soon."

"Okey dokey, sir," the droid replied cheerfully and he carried Phineas to the cell.

Unfortunately for Darthenshmirtz, the robot hadn't exactly been given the necessary freedom of movement to do the task. The sith rolled his eyes, and he handcuffed the child to the walls, and he closed the cell.

Elsewhere, the Centennial Chihuahua flew through space. Isabella sat on her captain's chair, Perry punched Isabella's punching bag to practice for when he'd knock some stormtrooper heads- -Darthenshmirtz if he was lucky enough- -for taking his owner. Ferb sat at the table staring down. He promised he wouldn't let anything happen to Phineas after the incident with the Sith-inator. He swore he'd protect him...but he didn't. He let Phineas face that jerk alone which resulted in his little brother's capture. He didn't wanna think of what could happen to him. Would the Empire kill him? Would they turn him to the dark side. The mere thought of sweet, innocent little Phineas dressed in black wielding a red lightsaber fighting with a dark glare...terrified Ferb. Even worse, he imagined himself fighting his brother. That must've been what it felt like for Phineas...fighting his own brother but not wanting to hurt him.

"Ferb! This isn't you! We're brothers!" Phineas shouted desperately, fear starting to creep up on him, and he backed into the wall.

Darth Ferb paid no heed to his brother's words. He advanced, and Phineas was barely able to dodge the burning blade of his brother's saber. Phineas knew he had no choice but to wield his lightsaber to protect himself. He backed away as the brothers faced each other, moving in a circle.

"H-hey this is crazy," Phineas said, "We-we would never try to hurt each other."

Darth Ferb said nothing as he summoned the other end of his saber to make it dual bladed, and Phineas grunted a little in worry.

Ferb had been completely lost in thought when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up at the owner of the hand, and he sighed.

"Hey, you don't need to worry, Ferb," Isabella consoled, "I'm sure Phineas will be fine."

Ferb looked down at the table. It wasn't that he was worried Phineas would get hurt- -scratch that...he did worry about that- -but he was worried of what they'd do to him. Isabella admittingly was a little worried for this too. Darthenshmirtz seemed like an idiot, but the rest of the Empire weren't. They'd figure out a way to make Phineas one of them...or suffer for defying them. The feeling made her a little sick. With a shake of her head, she pushed those thoughts out. She had to believe Phineas would be fine.

"He'll be fine. He's brave and- -though I thought it was stupidity- -actually really smart. If anyone can think of a clever plan, he can," Isabella sighed, "We...we have to believe in him, Ferb. Phineas is tough. He'll find a way."

"He has to," Isabella thought to herself.

Aboard Darthenshmirtz's ship, Phineas felt himself coming to. What was that? He'd been jumping to escape then there was a beam. As his vision cleared, he looked around, and he looked down at the shackles around his wrists and ankles. He gulped a little as it came crashing down what had happened.

"Uh oh…"

"Uh oh is right," Darthenshmirtz said from the other side of the glass, "You're my prisoner, and that's that. Get comfy 'cuz it's a long way to the Death Star. There, you'll meet the emperor."

Phineas' eyes widened as fear creeped its way into him a little bit, but he didn't say anything. He had nothing to say. He could be cliche and say 'you'll never get away with this' but nah. He blinked at the Sith on the other side.

"What? Nothing to say?" Darthenshmirtz questioned.

Phineas shook his head. Darthenshmirtz rolled his eyes and went back to the ship controls. Phineas could only sit and think. How could he have been so naive? Of course he'd have a backup plan. Why didn't HE?! Then again, perhaps Ferb and Isabella had a backup plan devised. Maybe they had sent out a rescue unit. Ugh, he hated admitting to defeat here. He wanted to find his own way out. If he could just get to one of the escape pods. Maybe then he could escape and send a message out to his friends to find him. The chains were firm though, and the glass he was trapped behind wasn't very breakable. He hated to admit it...but someone would have to save him if he was to get out of this alive…

...or at least still a Jedi...

A/N: OMG I am SO sorry it took me so long to actually update this. I regret to inform it might take awhile between updates again. I had started writing this chapter but got some major writer's block. I have ideas for what I want to happen in this story...I just struggle with getting to some of those plot points sometimes. I hope this chapter was worth the wait. I feel so bad. I'll try to have the next chapter updated as soon as I can. I decided to do the author's note at the bottom instead of the top since bold is what I have the opening scroll thing in and it could be confusing...um...anyway...
