Phineas woke up. It was bright down the deep hole. And a thought struck him. "How can Pine Trees grow in here?" he mumbled. Then he heard water. "A river!" he exclaimed and he approached the cause of the sound.

Candace woke up. She saw that Phineas was missing. "Phineas!" she said. At the same time, Mr. Not Soe (as Candace calls him) was wide awake. "What's up, Candy?" he asked. "My brother…is…missing!" Candace freaked out. She started running around camp, shouting "Phineas! Phineas, where are you?" Natsu grabbed her arm and said, "When you wake up Erza, I'll be dead! So please, calm down." She blushed, then let go of his arm. "I can't calm down! He's my brother and mom will kill me if I never find him again," she said. Natsu rolled his eyes and said, "I'll help you, then. Just promise that you'll call me Natsu starting now." He didn't look at Candace. Candace thought deeply about this. "Okay," she said. Then she hugged Natsu. "THANKS!"

"Phineas! Phineas!" Candace called out. They've walked about twenty miles but still, no Phineas. Natsu was about to give up when…
"Natsu! Candace! I'm here," Phineas waved. He was sitting on the riverbank with Perry. "How did Perry get here…And-and how is there water?" she asked. Phineas explained what had happened. "You know, your sister was freaking out like crazy," said Natsu. Candace rolled her eyes. Phineas saw how worried his sister was and said, "I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have left camp." He was so upset. Natsu gave him a wink and he smiled. They head back to camp.
