A/N: A sad chapter ahead.

Chapter 11

Isabella was nervous as she held her mirror in front of her face waiting surrounded by the others for some signal that Allebasi had her mirror.

"What were we thinking, Allebasi more then likely doesn't go after her mirror very often if at all." Isabella said staring at her reflection in the mirror.

"I can't hurt to be ready if she does," Ferb said.

Isabella nodded, "I guess your right."

"Good, it'll be okay," Phineas said

"So, we just sit here till then?" Isabella asked.

"Unless we find some way t make her touch the mirror," Phineas said

"Alright, any idea's on how we could do that?" Isabella asked.

"If she can hear through the mirror then we could make her find it," Phineas said

"What would I say though?" Isabella asked.

"Taunt her," Phineas said

"This is already an extremely dangerous game. Why would we make it worse like that?" Isabella asked.

"Well I have no other ideas," Phineas said.

"We can't risk it." Isabella said staring into the mirrior.

"Why not?" Phineas asked.

"Because we're already bringing Allebasi here, we are not going to piss her off even worse than normal to do that!" Isabella said not budging on that.

"I guess so," Phineas said.

Suddenly, there was a bright flash of light that showed that they wouldn't need to.

"Be careful," Phineas said

"I will." Isabella managed to get out before disappearing.

She found herself floating again, and in front of her was her mirror.

They both grabbed on and found themselves in each other's dimensions. When Allebasi got there, she was breathing and sweating hard. worryingLy also looked scared worrying them even more as to what they just sent Isabella into the middle off.

"What just happened?" Mrs. Smith asked

"The switch was made." Phineas answered.

"No I was asking her what happened?" Mrs. Smith asked Allbasi.

Allebasi managed to catch her breath only enough to say one word, "Mada."

"Explain!" Vivian ordered

Allebasi held up a finger try get catch her breath enough to do so.

Not even an hour ago back in Nadville, Allebasi was in the planning room with Kyle when she heard a bone tinglingly familiar voice. "Hello, sis."

She turned around and was stunned as Mada stepped out of shadows smirking. Dressed in all black.

"Th-that's impossible. Y-you're dead. You've been dead for twelve years."

"No I played dead for twelve years, you should have seen mother's face when I showed up at her house," He said cruelly.

Allebasi clutched the side of the table grabbing a sharp knife since it's better for defense where the dull one is better for torture. "You killed Mom?"

"Of course who else could get past her security force?" He asked approaching her slowly

"I also killed Grandma, and now, it took sometime, but it's finally your turn, Al."

"No, you can't!" She said

"I can and will." Mada said knocking Kyle out so he won't get in the way. "You've been in power far too long, sister dearest."

"There is always a queen, mom and Grandma were just upholding tradition they really missed you!" She said quickly

"You and I both know that bull and that any tradition," He drew a sword hold it against her pencil eraser neck. "is subject to change."

"What about Elyk?" She asked buying more time.

"I'll cross that bridge when I come to it." He looked down at the unconscious Kyle.

Allebasi took the opportunity sprinting out of the room and to the one place she knew he wouldn't simply follow her. Something she swore she'd never associate herself with again. It was a long shot .was the only way to save her life so she had nothing to lose by trying.

She sprinted into a room that had a spotlight shining down on a black hand mirror.

She quickly removed the case. 'Please work, please work.' She mentally beg as she grabbed the mirror.

The room light up with a bright flash of light.

Mada got in shortly thereafter Isabella's arrival. "You really thought that would help?" He asked angrily unaware of the switch.

"What are you talking about?" Isabella asked scared.

In another room Kyle woke up and it was Kyle apparently all he needed to get his memory back was a blow to the head.

Without much logical thought, he went after them and managed to find them from the noise, just in time to personally witness his girlfriend's untimely demise.

Before Mada could react to his presence Kyle broke his cane over Mada's skull effectively knocking him out. He ran over to Isabella feeling her pulse point. Her heartbeat was there, but faint.

"Kyle?" She asked faintly holding the stab wound in her chest, but smiling slightly at him.

His eyes widened, Allebasi would have called him Elyk. "Isabella?" He asked in a crowded voice trying to not let her see him cry. He tried to apply pressure to the wound.

"Kyle it is you," She said happily, but faintly as he pressed his hands to her wound.

"Don't talk save your strength," He said desperately.

"Kyle don't, it's too late for me. You need to get out of here. Save yourself." She said but it was next to nothing as the world swirled around her eyes. "I came here to save you and I won't let you get yourself killed for me. Just always remember, I love you, Kyle. I truly truly do."

"No, no!" Kyle siad holding her tight as the mirror began to glow again.

"Stay with me Isa we are going home," He said

He felt her go to a dead weight and panicedly checked for a pulse again finding it still going having speed up significantly but she had gone into hypovolemic shock (loss of consciousness due to severe blood loss).

They came out in a flash and Allebasi was still there, but Elyk's body was gone.

"Isabella please no no! Don't die you can't I love you," Kyle said shaking as she went completely limp in his arms. He began to cry.

Allebasi sat and watched intensely as everyone else gathered around. It's no little known fact that Allebasi has been directly responsible for the deaths of 100's of millions of times more people than the average person can count. Seen just as many loved one's of them in almost the exact state. 'So why does this feel so different?' She thought slowly made her way over to Kyle and said something she's never said in her life but had heard a few times while in this dimension the first time and had figured out the meaning. "I'm sorry."

Kyle did not say anything for a while.

"I failed, I was supposed to protect her and I failed," He said sliding Isabella's eyes closed and stepping aside so Vivian and Adam and other could get to Isabella. He simply walked past them with a look his parents had not seen from him in a while. It was a hallow dead sort of look as if Kyle no longer cared what happened any more. All the fight the will to keep living seemed to have left him as walked out the door alone.

Silence hung over the room for what felt like an eternity before Phineas spoke up through tear filled eyes, as he started at the body of his best friend. "What was I thinking? I should have never let her back there, I shouldn't have even brought it up. Now she's dead and it's all my fault."

"No it's not Phineas, we could have stopped her too," Ferb said beginning to cry as the adults nodded.

"I was the one who brought it up though." Phineas reminded.

"We let it happen though," Ferb said.

"Would you guys all stop that, I think it's obvious who's fault it is." Allebasi said. "It's me and my brother's fault, and me and my brother's fault alone."

Everyone went quiet at that, until Phineas spoke:

"Why do you care you never usually care about anyone other than yourself," He said

Allebasi stared at her counterpart's body for a moment before admitting honestly. "I have no idea… something about this just feels… different."

"How do we know you are not faking?" Adam asked

"You don't." Allebasi said and looked down at the two mirriors on the floor. "But now we're stuck with each other."

"Then get out of here," Phineas said.

Allebasi stood up with a glare. "Don't tell me what to do!"

"You are not queen here I'll tell you what I please," Phineas said.

Allebasi grunted knowing he was right, "Where would I even go then?"

"I do not know nor do I really care," Phineas said coldly. The everyone was surprised.

"She can stay with us," Mrs. Smith said.

"Mrs. Smith, you don't know what you're agreeing to." Phineas pointed out. "Saenihp from earlier is what in Nadville, where they're from, they'd call a good guy, a hero, actually but even by Nadville standards, Allebasi's what they'd still call 'blood-thirsty evil'."

"Well what are we supposed to do let her live on the streets running wild?" Mrs. Smith asked.

No one had any idea what to say to that.

"Exactly so why don't we have her stay with us? Besides she actually seems to like our family for some reason," Mrs. Smith said looking over to Allebasi questioningly

Allebasi shrugged despite knowing exactly why.

"Why?" Phineas asked

Allebasi explained everything that happened when Kyle was back in Nadville.

Mrs. Smith pulled her out of the room and outside.

"Let me get this straight you slept with my son?" She asked carefully.

"Well, yeah, but I didn't realize it was him." Allebasi said awkwardly.

"Really?" She asked skeptically

"Yes really, I honestly thought it was Elyk."

"You need to be more careful," Mrs. Smith said

"Hey, it's hard to differentiate between counterparts and he had amnesia making it nearly impossible." Allebasi said defensively.

"Fine, but be honest you are still thinking about him aren't you?" Mrs. Smith asked

Allebasi sighed, "Well, yeah, but I wouldn't go that far again, definately not now."

"I will be watching you," Mrs. Smith warned.

Allebasi rolled her eyes, "I won't."

"Just keep that in mind. You live in my home now," Mrs. Smith said

"I will." Allebasi tried to think of that polite term they use when someone does something for you.

"Thank you?" She said carefully.

Mrs. Smith was a little surprised. "You're welcome."

"So, do I just go over now?" She asked.

"Probably be best but at least for a while, just try and avoid Kyle in general, his not really in any mood to see anyone right now." Mrs. Smith said seriously.

"Well alright I guess," She said heading over.

She returned a second later, "Danville's set up extremely different than Nadville, where's you house?"

"Across the street to the right," Mrs. Smith said.

"Alright. Thank you again." Allebasi said before heading over there.

She walked in and was impressed by the living room and kitchen, both of which were empty.

She stopped in the kitchen looking around in confusion.

"There is no handles," She huffed.

Allebasi went over to the fridge and ran her hand over it trying to find away to open it and was surprised that her hand went right through it.

Then it slid a soda into her hand.

She pulled it out staring at the soda in disbelief. "That's incredible."

"No it's really not," Said a quiet voice from behind her.

She nearly jumped out of her skin since she's jumpy from almost dying earlier today. She turned to him awkwardly. "Well, I think it is."

"Most people seem too. What are you doing here?" He asked her.

"Well I'm going to live here now," She said

Kyle wasn't sure what to think of that for now. "Um… okay?"

"Yeah," She said awkwardly.

"Look, I know this is very uncharacteristic for me, but I really am sorry for what happened to Isabella. I know she was very important to you."

"Yeah, she was," Kyle said getting a drink and heading to the stairs.

Allebasi didn't say anything as he headed upstairs. Once he was gone, she sat down at the table with her soda and whispered, "It should have been me, I should have stood my ground instead of running like a coward. Mom and Grandma probably tried to stand their ground."

What she was not aware of was both had tried to run as well before being forced to stand their ground by Mada's persistence.

Adam bent down and closed his dead sister's eyes for her, that way, as long as you don't look at her chest. She looks peaceful. Like she was only sleeping. "I can't believe she's really gone. My own sister and I hadn't even gotten to know her for a year yet."

"It'll be alright," Vivian said hugging her remaining child as she cried.

He cried into her shoulder. "I should have stopped her though, I promised myself I'd never let anything happen to her but I failed. I'm a horrible brother."

"No your a great big brother," Vivian said rubbing his back.

"What makes you say so?" Adam asked hopelessly.

"You were a great brother," She said.

"I couldn't even keep her safe though and that's every siblings number one job."

"Adam you did all you could for her," Vivian said

Adam looked back over at the body through blurred eyes. "I just really wish I could have been in her life for longer. No matter how close we were I feel like a barely even knew her."

"Adam sh loved you," Vivian said.

"I know she did, and I love her."

"Then never forget her," Vivian said

"Of course not, I never could." Adam sai honestly.

"Good," Vivian said soothingly.

"People are going to legally need to know how she died though." Adam pointed out. They'll need to know who did it." Adam reminded.

"So what do we do?" Phineas asked

"I don't know." Adam said hopelessly.

"If they try to look into it themselves and find anything then they come back with that you killed her since the genetic make up and finer prints between counterparts are exactly the same." Phineas said fearful of the possibility.

"No there are no fingerprints," Adam said

"Still, I'm worried about that with that on top of her death in general and Allebasi being trapped here… it's all way too much." Phineas said.

"I know," Adam said.

"I honestly don't know what to do." Phineas said not taking his eyes off the body of his best friend.

"On top of all that what about Kyle? What kind of mental state is he in?" Ferb asked.

"Terrible." Phineas said remembering how he looked when he was here.

"I think someone should watch him, he may try to well..." Ferb trailed off afraid to say it.

Phineas bit his lip, "Yeah, someone who isn't Allebasi. Any volunteers?"

"I will," Mrs. Smith said

"Alright, hopefully it won't be needed though." Phineas said as Mrs. Smith headed home.

"Hopefully," She said hurrying into her home.

Mrs. Smith hurried home and into Kyle's room just in time.

When she got there Kyle stood on a stool a rope around his neck getting ready to kick the stool away.

"Kyle don't!" She said rushing over. Allebasi heard Mrs. Smith and rushed in as well. The was a VERY short list of people Allebasi cares about, but even though she knew it was Kyle and not Elyk, he was still on it.

"Kyle!" Allebasi said sounding terrified.

"No let me go!" He said struggling as they cut the rope.

Kyle managed to kick out the stool but Allebasi caught him keeping off the weight as Mrs. Smith cut the rope. "Kyle, I know you're depressed, I know it feels like there's nothing left to live for, that's exactly how I felt when Elyk died but killing yourself isn't the answer." Allebasi desperately told the thrashing boy in her arms.

"Yes it is!" He said thrashing still more.

"No it isn't, Kyle! What about your new friends? They just lost Isabella, too. How do you think they feel to lose you almost immediately afterwards?" Allebasi asked keeping a desperate hold on him. Though her question meant absolutely NOTHING to her, she figured it would hopefully mean something to him.

"They would not care their all probably talking about how this is my fault," He said still struggling

"It's not your fault, Kyle! No one thinks that but you and you need to stop telling yourself that!" Allebasi said seriously. "If it's anyone's fault besides Mada's it's my own! He was trying to kill me but Isabella took my place because I fled like a coward." Suddenly, as she was restraining the suicidal boy, she realized why Isabella's death meant so much to her… because Isabella meant the world to Kyle… and though she wouldn't admit it out loud Kyle meant the world to Allebasi.

Kyle kept struggling. Mrs. Smith left the room and came back with a syringe and plunged it into his neck. His eye lids drooped and he stopped flailing.

Allebasi looked at Kyle, then the syringe. "What was that?"

"A special drug we were given the last time Kyle had suicidal thoughts it puts him to sleep only to be used in extreme cases," She said sadly.

Allebasi bit her lip. "This has happened before?"

"Never that bad," Mrs. Smith said looking worried.

Allebasi laid him down on his bed being uncharacteristically gentle, then she found herself doing it again. "I'm sorry."

"Why, there is nothing that can be done now," Mrs. Smith said stroking her sons hair

"It's my fault Isabella died though, so it's my fault he's like this." Allebasi said sadly.

"Maybe, but all we can do now is help him through," She said.

Allebasi nodded, "I know, and I'm trying, but I know it'll take time."

"Yes it will," Mrs. Smith sighed

"Hopefully, he won't try that again though." Allebasi said worried that he still will.

"We can only wait and watch," Mrs. Smith said.

"And save him if he does again." Allebasi said with a sigh.

"You seem to really care," Mrs. Smith said.

"That's because I do, actually." Allebasi admitted.

"Why?" Mrs. Smith asked carefully

Allebasi looked at him for a while then answered. "I love him."

"You,love him?" She asked honestly surprised.

Allebasi nodded slowly. "Yeah, I really do. I wouldn't tell him that though, not with the emotional state he's in."

"I don't know it might help at some later date," She said

"Maybe, but definately not yet." Allebasi said with a sigh.

"No, not yet," Mrs. Smith said.

"About how long will it take for him to wake back up?" Allebasi asked worriedly.

"A few hours, someone should go tell the others," She said

"They probably wouldn't listen to me." Allebasi reminded truthfully.

"Okay you watch him, I will go tell them," She said

"I will." Allebasi promised not moving from where she is right next to him.

"Maybe there is hope for you yet," Mrs. Smith said

Allebasi shrugged. "Maybe."

"I'll be back," Mrs. Smith said running down the stairs and back to the Flynn Fletcher home.

They were surprised when she suddenly burst in to the room.

"What is it? What's wrong?" Mr. Smith asked noticing her face.

"Kyle tried to hang himself." Mrs. Smith said panicked. "We saved him and gave the medicine put if I was even a second later it would have been too late."

"No way!" Adam said. Mrs. Smith nodded sadly.

"This day just keeps getting worse," Ferb sighed.

"I know, at least the medicine will keep him asleep for a few hours so we know he won't try again." Mrs. Smith said.

Phineas raised an eyebrow at that. "Where's Allebasi then?"

"She's watching him," Mrs. Smith said

"Are you nuts!" Phineas asked, his eyes the size of dinner plates. "You can't leave her alone with him at all much less while he's unconscious therefore unable to defend himself! He'd stand a better chance awake and alone then with her!"

"No, believe me he's safer with her than he is alone, and Phineas do not tell me how to take care of my son," She warned.

"You don't know Allebasi like we do, Mrs. Smith. It doesn't matter what she claims or does to convince you otherwise, she's just pretending, that's exactly what she did the first time she was here." Phineas warned. "I'm not trying to be bossy, I'm just trying to protect him so I don't have two of my friends' dead bodies on my hands."

"Go over there and be proven wrong," Mrs. Smith said.

Phineas ran out and across the street to the Smith's house and was surprised to find her just standing in front of him with her hands neatly behind her back where Phineas could see they were empty, but he still wasn't buying it. "Get away from him!"

"No I was told to watch and protect him," She said.

"Well, I'm not stupid and you can never be trust with that." Phineas said through narrowed eyes.

"I understand your mistrust, but I am not going to hurt him. In any case it's not up to you to decide who can watch him," She said

"Well, I'm not going anywhere. I told you before, you only care about yourself, except it's worse than that. You're a sadist through and through."

"No I am not!" She said glaring at him.

"I care about Kyle," She said.

"I'm not going to fall for it, Allebasi. Not this time." Phineas said folding his arms.

"Your pathetic," She huffed not taking her eyes off Kyle.

"No, I have commonsense." Phineas said keeping a close eye on her.

"No you are pathetic," She said simply

"No, I just don't want to have to of my friends' dead bodies on my hands, especially in one day."

"I would not kill him," She said

"And I should just trust your word on that?" Phineas asked skeptically.

"No, but I will prove it," She said

"There's nothing you could do to make me trust you." Phineas said.

"We'll see, " She shrugged

"I'm still not going to leave you alone with him."

"Fine," She said whipping Kyle's forehead with a rag.

Phineas moved to the side making sure it was just that.

She rolled her eyes at him

"You can't blame me for being suspisious of you." Phineas reminded. "After everything you've done."

"I don't, but I am a women of my word," She said

"Alright then, why do you care so much about Kyle if you don't have some evil purpose behind it? Or is just being around miserable people enough to satisfy your sadistic tendencies?"

"Because I love him okay?" SHe asked

Phineas was shocked to say the least. "Seriously?"

"Yes seriously," She said blushing.

Phineas wasn't sure what to think. "He'd never go out with you you know, not knowing who he is."

"You do not know that, in any case it does not matter right now," She said

"You won't tell him now will you?" Phineas asked knowing that's a horrible idea.

"No, not in the state he's in," She said

Phineas sighed, "Fine, but I'm keeping my eye on you."

"Feel free," She said

"What's up with your brother anyways? Why was he trying to kill you?" Phineas asked.

"I killed him or I thought I did, I was told too," She said

"Wow, talk about a dysfunctional family." Phineas said but it was unsurprising. "Does that stuff happen a lot?"

"Let's put it this was until Mada there had never been a king," Allebasi said.

"So, you had to make sure it stayed that way?" Phineas concluded.

"Exactly, but I apparently failed," She said

"That's surprising, you seem to be rather good at killing people, when did this happen?"

"When we were three, my grandma was mad that he was still alive and gave me a dull knife telling me to kill him… so I did… or at least I thought I did." Allebasi explained awkwardly.

"What did your family have against men?" Phineas asked

"I'm not sure really, it's been that way since the Aicrag-Oriprahs first took over in 1842."

"For no reason?" Phineas asked

Allebasi shrugged, "There might have been I just don't know it. Probably not though, the family has always just been a truly special breed of evil. No exception but there were a few that were a little less evil."

"Like who?" Phineas asked raising an eyebrow.

"Like me."

"How are you not evil?" Phineas asked skeptically.

"I really am not as bad as people think I just act the way I do because it was how I was raised," Then Wlyk came along and he started to make me nice. Then he died and then Kyle..." She trailed off not knowing what to say.

"I don't even want to HEAR about the rest of your family then." Phineas said creeped out.

"No, my Grandma would have killed you without a second thought, that's why it scares me Mada was able to get to her," She said honestly

Phineas grimaced, "Well, at least we're not there. Is there anyone there that you actually really care about?"

"Not any more with Kyle here and Mom dead," She sighed looking sad.

"Well, then I guess you have nothing to worry about with Mada taking over besides broken tradition and that it's not you anymore." Phineas pointed out.

"You seem to think it is," She said

"That because I actually see the value in human life and happiness." Phineas said folding his arms.

"So you like me a little?" She asked

"Not that way or even really as a friend but I wouldn't want to see you dead or miserable." Phineas admited. "I wouldn't with anyone."

"Sounds like a friend," She said

"Except that it's the case with ever for me. I just don't like the idea of anyone dying or being sad, that doesn't mean that everyone's my friend."

"I could try to be your friend," She said

"I doubt it. Do you even know what friends do?" Phineas asked skeptically.

"No, I never really had any," She said

"Obviously, well, maybe I could help you with that?" Phineas offered hesitantly.

"Really?" She asked hopefully.

"Well... yeah." He said thinking that if he teaches her how do be a friend to him then she might be nicer to other people. After all, she just never knew any different. It's not her fault how she was raised.

"Thank you!" She said.

"Phineas gave a small smile. "At least you have down what to say when someone does something nice for you and when you do something you shouldn't have. There might be hope for you yet. Do you know what you say when you want something from someone whether a physical object or favor?"

... Please?" She said after a pause

Phineas nodded, "That's right, remember those, they could get you a lot farther then you'd think in this dimension."

"Okay," She said carefully

"Second let others talk first," Phineas said

"Alright, about what?" Allebasi asked confused, they have been talking since he got there haven't they.

"No I mean do not interrupt others when they are talking," Phineas said

"Oh! Ok." Allebasi said that making a lot more sense now. "So, wait for them to finish what they have to say?"

"Yes it works in arguments as well," Phineas said

Allebasi nodded making a note of that. "Alright."

"Good, now on to everyday stuff," Phineas said

Allebasi waited for him to finish his thought unsure.

"First try to not look at others like scum," He said

Allebasi flinched slightly but that was kind of a given. "Alright, so how should look at them?"

"Depends on whether they are family and friends or enemies," Phineas said

"Alright, how about enemies first?" Allebasi asked raising an eyebrow.

"Them you can glare at and be rude too," Phineas said

Allebasi seemed to look relieved at that. "Good, what about friends and family?"

"Kindeness and understanding always take into account what they want to do," Phineas said

"Alright, I guess I could do that." Allebasi said but there was a hint of uncertainty.

"You can, it will take time though, and you may need a new name," Phineas said.

"What about Ally? Isn't that a pretty common name here? Yet, it's still at least part of my name." Allebasi suggested.

"Yeah we can use that," Phineas said

"So, what else?" She asked.

"Mind your manners and no killing those who annoy you," He said

Ally sighed. "Alright, of course."

"That's it then," He said.

"Well… I guess that doesn't sound too hard." She said awkwardly.

"You sure?" He asked.

"Yeah, it'll take some work but less then I thought."

"Good, now I have to go back home," Phineas said.

"I understand, so, I'll see you later?" She said as more of a question.

"Yes, but don't make me regret this," Phineas said

"I'll try not to, thank you, Phineas."
