After Doofenshmirtz and Norm's faces disappeared from the sky, Isabella looked at Phineas.
"What do we do?" she asked.
"I don't know," replied Phineas. "Let me think for a second."
"Hey, was the dude in the sky that pharmacist who turned us into mindless drones a couple of months ago?" asked Buford.
"He did what?" asked Candace.
"Allow me to explain," Irving said. "A couple of months ago, the pharmacist guy, Dr. Doofendorts or something, lured Phineas, Ferb, myself, and the others to his apartment saying that there was going to be a new young inventors club. But instead, he zapped us all with some ray to become under his control. He tried to use us to take over Danville, but a hooded figure rescued us from his control."
"Oh, Phineas and Ferb, you two would have been so busted had I known about that," taunted Candace.
"Let's discuss about that later because I have a plan" said Phineas. "Ferb, you take Candace, Buford, and Irving back to the shelter we built and use the logs to make a raft of some sort. Rip up the shelter if you have to. And be sure to keep an eye out for Perry."
"Okay, what will you do?" asked Ferb.
"Me, Isabella, and Baljeet will go to get some more coconuts from the nearby tree," Phineas answered. "We don't know how long it could take to get to the place the pharmacist was saying we needed to go to in order to get out."
"Alright, dweebs," Candace said to Irving, Buford, and Ferb. "Let's go make a raft."
The three boys ran with Candace into the forest.
"Okay, Baljeet," said Phineas. "Lead us to the tree because I don't remember where it is."
"I'll be ready in a second," said Baljeet. "I need to check my compass."
Suddenly, something dark and hooded slammed into the sand at Phineas and Isabella's feet.
Isabella gasped. "It's the hooded figure who rescued us from Dr. D!"
"You're right," agreed Phineas. "Maybe he can help us look for Perry after we get the coconuts."
The hooded figure stood up and pointed in the direction in which it had come.
Phineas and Isabella looked in that direction and saw the monkey-crab hybrids.
"They don't look happy," Isabella observed. "And they seem to be holding something."
Phineas peered hard and saw that some of the hybrids were holding spears. But most were throwing them.
"They're throwing spears at us!" shouted Phineas as one whizzed past his ear. "Duck!" He grabbed Isabella's arm and the two of them fell on the sand.
The hooded figure and Baljeet also dropped to the sand when both were almost hit.
"Alright, that's it," said Phineas. He stood up, dodged a couple of spears summoned two balls of light.
Both the hooded figure and Baljeet did a double take.
"Phineas!" stammered Baljeet. "What-how-when?"
Phineas looked back at the nerd. "Explanations will come later."
He thrust his hands forward (palms out) and fired two continuous beams of light at the monkey-crab hybrids.
"That still gets me every time," Isabella whispered to herself.
Phineas brought his arms outward, causing the beams of light to go in that direction as well.
It wasn't long before all of the hybrids were disintegrated.
"Well, that wasn't too hard," said Phineas cheerfully as he stopped the beams of light.
"Almost too easy," said a suspicious Isabella. "I have a feeling that there's more."
At that moment, the water and sand began to shake.
"And now you've jinxed it!" snapped Baljeet.
Isabella sighed. "We all knew it was coming."
The hooded figure pointed out towards the ocean. After looking in that direction, Phineas, Baljeet and Isabella saw that a large, green snake had risen out of the water.
Its body was a thick as a U-haul truck and the part of its body above the water was about as tall as a satellite tower.
"Surrender yourself, Light Hands," hissed the serpent. "For I am Norm's greatest creation with the ability to breathe fire."
To prove its point, the snake cocked back its head and blew a stream of fire into the air.
Phineas glared at the snake and clenched his fists. "Baljeet, Isabella! Change of plans! Go to the others at the shelter and don't come out of the forest through the way you came. Find another way out. The hooded figure and I will take on the snake!"
"But Phineas—" protested Isabella, but she was cut off.
"Just go!" ordered Phineas. "We can handle the serpent."
For a moment, Isabella looked conflicted. Then, she reached out, grabbed Phineas, pulled him to her and kissed her. And he kissed her back.
The smooch lasted for a few seconds before Phineas cut it off.
Isabella then nodded at Baljeet and the two of them ran off into the forest.
"Are you done now?" asked the snake blatantly.
Phineas looked up at the serpent. "Uh, do you mind? That was kind of personal and you're sitting there acting like I shouldn't have done that, which is really none of your business"
"That doesn't make any sense!" complained the annoyed snake. "But then again, I've never really understood human relationships."
"Of course you don't," said Phineas. "Duh! You're not a human. Anyway, we should really get back to fighting. The chapter's almost over."
"Yes, yes we should," agreed the serpent.
Phineas cleared his throat. "I will never surrender myself to you!" he shouted. "For I am about to kick your butt!"
"We'll see about that!" taunted the serpent.
Phineas summoned two balls of light and fired them at the snake.
Well, what do you think? Please let me know by reviewing. Chapter Nine to be coming soon!
