Hi it's me. Sorry for waiting so long to post but I had a Analytical chemistry test to study for. But the test is over and I'm reran and ready to go. So today I will do a short chapter and update all the other chapters to try to get rid of spelling errors … ya not that important but it will make me feel batter.

14AmyChan: Sorry, the effect of the Do-Something-Stupid-Inator wore off the night of the following day, or if you want a time then 29 hours (that would be around 8:00 the following night). And thank you for reviewing for this chapter, have a plate of cookies.

Comment: At some point someone asked me how old everyone is in this story and I never answered, so hear it is. Erick, Buford, Ferb, and Adyson are going into their second year of junior high (8th grade) so they are about 13-14, Phineas, Isabella, Django, Irving, and the rest of the fireside girls (save for Gretchen) are going into their first year of junior high so somewhere around 12 (Phineas will turn 13 before the end of summer), Gretchen has just turned 12 so she is still in grade school, Brigitte is … I'm going to say just turned 15 so high school, Baljeet and Mishti are … … … … I will say that they are turning 12 but Baljeet is two years ahead in education and Mishti is one year ahead. Now did I miss anyone? If I did then please tell me. P.S. whoever asked me that have a cookie, I'm sorry for taking so long.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything or anyone except Erick.

(Phineas's POV)

I wasn't able to sleep; apparently tearing the patch in half doesn't cut the effects in half. For the rest of the night I kept hearing voices (Isabella's voice) coming from various parts of the room. When morning finally came I was extremely … surprised I guess (A.N. When you go the whole night just lying awake in bed, the sensation you get when you get out of bed is quite indescribable). I shook it off then proceeded to make my way downstairs for breakfast.

"Good morning Phineas" my mom said to me as I took a seat next to Candice "did you sleep well?"

I gave my mom a slightly unhappy look "it was … different … without Ferb" I said taking a bowl of cereal.

"Oh sweetie" she walked over to me "don't worry Ferb will be back tomorrow before you even wake up so don't worry"

'Tomorrow? That's not good. I have to talk with Erick today as soon as possible.' I finished my breakfast and made my way to the front door 'I hope he doesn't have plans'

(Erick's POV)

"Okay so my second date with Katie is this afternoon" I said to myself while pacing around my room "nothing could possibly ruin this day" just as I finished my sentience my phone rang "had to say it" I picked up my phone with the least energy I've ever had "hello?"

"Hi Erick? I need a favor" it was Phineas, and I quickly assumed that the favor he needed would have something to do with the emotional suppressors.

"Depends on the favor" I always say that so that I don't agree to something before I know what it is.

"Well the thing is … I haven't taken off the patch in a few days" my eyes grew wide.

"What?!"

"You see the thing is that I really didn't want Ferb to see it the first day and the second day … I just forgot"

"You took it off right?"

"Well that's the thing…"

"Please tell me you don't have it on now"

"I have half of it on is that okay?" I was pissed now

"NO IT"S NOT OKAY, TAKE IT OFF"

"If I take it off then … immense pain comes"

I sat down on my bed and grasped my forehead and started thinking "how exactly did you realize that you still had it on?" I was afraid of the answer but if this problem was to be fixed then I would have to know.

"I … started hallucinating"

That was not the response that I wanted to hear "what did you hallucinate?"

"Is that really important?"

"It is if you want to know what caused the hallucination"

There was a long pause "it was … Isabella" I gave him a minute to get his thoughts straight "I hallucinated her trying to make out with me"

"Then it's probably a result of the suppressed emotions and not the patch itself" I ran my fingers through my hear and sighed "you have to take the patch off and let the emotions drain out"

"But … won't that be … painful?" I could tell that there was fear in his voice by the way he talked.

"Yes Phineas it will be painful and it might be dangerous if there is no one around to stop you from doing something stupid" I sighed "who knows about the patch other than you, me, Katie, and Buford?"

"No one"

I sighed again "I will call Buford and see if he can watch you and if not you can come here"

"Thank I owe you another one, how long will it take?"

"I wish I could tell you" I hung up the phone and started dialing Buford, but before I could finish my phone rang with a call from Buford. I sighed and picked it up "hello?"

"Hi Erick? I need a favor"

I sighed "depends on the favor"

"I need you to teach me to be foreign and sophisticated"

I froze for a second and took in what he said "you want me to … I'm sorry what?"

"I want Brigitte to think that I'm not just some mindless brute"

I froze then did a double take "but Buford … you are"

"But I don't want to be anymore, I want to be someone that Brigitte will love and want to be with"

I did another double take "why? Not a few months ago you would send someone up the river for even mentioning that you were in love with her"

"I guess I've changed"

"Whatever just … get over here and I will try to help you"

"Thanks man, I owe ya" he hung up.

"Well I could always ask Katie if she would like to pick a later time" I said as I dialed Phineas's number. Before I could hit send it rang again, this time from Baljeet. I shook my head and picked it up "hello"

"Hi Erick? I need a favor"

I let out a heave sigh "depends on the favor" I said slowly

"I need help with Ginger and Mishti"

"Can you be more specific?" I said with an almost sarcastic tone.

"I can't contact either of them and … I don't want them to think that I cheated on one of them"

I sighed again "okay just come over and I will see what I can do"

"Thank you so much, I really owe you" he hung up.

I let my hand drop to my knee and I counted backward from ten "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1" my Phone rang. I looked at the color ID and saw it was Django. "What could he want?" I asked myself. I shook the thought from my head and picked up the phone "hello"

"Hi Erick? I need a favor"

I rolled my eyes and shook my head "depends on the favor"

"I need you to help me get me some police records"

I was shocked that such a milled mannered kid was asking me for such an unusual request "would you mind if I asked why?"

"It's … Adyson"

I shook my head "whatever I will try but I will need you to come and tell me exactly what it is that you need"

"Okay, I owe ya"

"Of course you do" I said after he hung up "what am I going to tell Katie?" I grasped my head with both my hands and sighed "well I have to call and tell her that I have to reschedule" I went to my contacts and called her number (it was first on the list so it didn't take long). After a few seconds she picked up.

"Erick? What's wrong?"

I sighed "a few need my help with a few things today and …"

"Please don't tell me that you have to cancel"

"I was hoping to reschedule"

"I have to pack for fireside girl's camp tomorrow and won't be back till next Friday"

"Ya I know"

There was a long silence "who need's you to do what?"

"Well …" I started "Baljeet needs help with the two girls he's in love with, Buford wants' me to teach him how to be … civilized"

"Really?"

"I was as shocked as you"

"Anyone else?"

"Ya, Django wants' to get involved in Adyson's past, and Phineas has been … hallucinating"

I held my breath as I waited for her response "that last one actually sounds like an actual emergency"

"Ya I know" I sighed "look I'm sorry about this and all, but-"

"It's okay"

I froze for a second "it is?"

"Ya Phineas needs help, Baljeet sounds like he's also in a predicament … tell Django not to get involved in things that are over his head, and Buford … I ask again, really?"

"Ya"

"Well … I guess its okay this once but you really owe me this time, understand?"

"Most defiantly"

"Good, I will see you in a week then, bye"

"Bye" I waited for her to hang up before trying to dial Phineas again. Then my phone rang again, this time from Irving. Slowly I answered it.

"Hi Erick? I need a favor" I threw my phone against the wall and watched it shatter into a million tinny pieces."

"No more favors" I said to the remnants of my phone

Okay end of chapter. Ya it was short but I had to stop at that point. There is no "what's changed?" in this chapter but there is an update. I plan to post the first chapter of the first story of my series 'The Light Within the Darkness' by the start of December. It involves the world of Excaliferb and I plan to give you more info as time marches on, but for now I must end this chapter.
