Well it's time for another chapter, and I for one can't wait to see what is going to happen (I know what's going to happen but I don't know how), but I digress, to the reviews!

14AmyChan: hopefully it will make the story interesting.

Skypan: I do have a plan for Gretchen that will make a lot of people very mad but I feel as though this story is going to do that anyway.

dragon10203: If that does happen then it won't be any time soon.

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

(Phineas's POV)

I can't really say that I slept all that well. My mind kept thinking of girls that I might find to replace Isabella, but sadly I couldn't think of one. As I pretended to sleep I heard Ferb come in and sneak his way into his bed 'well look who's returned' I thought to myself. I rolled over in my 'sleep' and decided to think of an activity for the following day (seeing as Ferb will be there and not on a date with Isabella I might as well work with him on the days activity) before long an idea popped into my head and I mentally paned for the rest of the night.

When day finally came I stretched my arms and shook of that 'I was self conscious of every second of the night' feeling. "Good morning Ferb" I greeted my still sleeping brother "so you ready for today's activity?" he rolled over in his sleep and mooned 'well he was up late last night so he's still probably tired' "okay then, you sleep for now and I will get started on today's idea"

Ferb shot out of bed like a bullet with his eyes wide open "I'm up, I'm up" he said.

'Huh? Well I guess I was wrong' I walked over to my closet and got dressed in my new outfit that I have been planning on wearing for a while and it wasn't too hot out to ware, it consisted of an orange hoodie and blue-grayish khaki's.

Ferb looked at me with a confused look on his face "you're changing your outfit?" he asked.

I looked back to him with my usual smile "well ya, I've been warring the same thing for a large portion of my life so why not change it up a little" Ferb stared at me for a few seconds befor heading over to his closet and searching for his outfit. While he wasn't looking I pulled out a patch from the box I kept hidden under my bed and slipped it into my pocket. "I'm going to get some breakfast, see you downstairs" I said as I walked out the door. As I walked downstairs I pulled up my sleeve and applied the patch to my shoulder 'better safe than sorry' I thought to myself.

(Later)

Ferb and I had finished building our invention and were showing it off to the rest of the group (mainly Buford, Baljeet, Django, Erick, and Gretchen). "Behold" I said pulling the tarp off our latest creation reveling a setup similar to the one we had when we put ourselves into a video game "the virtual reality landscape"

"Have you not already built a device similar to this?" Buford asked in an unusual accent that shocked both Ferb and Gretchen.

"Yes, yes we did, but we only used it to travel into a video game, this time we will be traveling into an environment that we created. It might sound like the same thing that we did before but it's not a linier video game, there will be a designated exit in the world and you can also be pulled out using the control panel" I walked over to the control panel "so where should we go first?"

"How about a nice quite forest?" Erick asked.

I looked around to see if there were any objections, there were none so I punched in the place and hit the start button "okay everyone get together" we all gathered in front of the digitizer and without another thought, we were all zapped into a quite forest that Ferb and I designed.

"This is a truly fascinating collection of flora with a distinct atmosphere that makes one feel a sense of relaxation" every one turned to Buford with wide eyes and a shocked expression.

'How did Erick manage to do that to Buford?' I thought to myself. I shook my head and looked at everyone "so everyone should have a map on them with their current location and the location of the exit, feel free to go exploring and we will meet back in the real world in about … two hours sound good?" every one agreed and we all went our separate ways

(Phineas's POV)

(Less than twenty minutes later)

I was walking through the forest taking in the sights of the trees, hills, and the sky we programmed, and let me just say that it was amazing. As I was taking in the wonderment I heard the sound of someone crying. I followed the sound to a nearby tree and looked up to see that it was Gretchen. "Hey Gretchen, what's wrong?" I asked. She snapped to attention upon hearing my voice.

"Nothing, I'm fine" she said trying to put on a smile.

I furrowed my eyebrows "don't try to lie to me I'm not oblivious"

She laughed for some reason and made her way down "sorry it's just …" she turned away.

"You can tell me" I said giving her a reassuring smile.

"I just *sniff* I'm upset that I can't go to camp with the other fireside girls" she looked very sad and like she would start crying again.

I gave her another smile "well that's not to bad, I mean you get to hang out with us right?"

"I guess" she mumbled.

"And you can always got to camp next year right?

"Ya" she didn't look like she would start crying but I could tell that she was still sad.

I wrapped my arm around her sholder "Tell you what, tomorrow we'll start this thing up again and you can pick the location, how's that sound?"

She smiled "that sound cool, thank Phineas"

I grabbed her hand "common, let me show you how amazing this forest is" for the rest of the time I showed Gretchen the wonders of the forest all the while I was holding her hand 'this isn't so bad' I thought. After the two hours were up Gretchen and I found the exit and made our way to the real world. After everyone else got out we managed to get the device to a safe place before it disappeared or before Candace could show mom the great idea we made (we had to keep it hidden because we didn't want it to disappear). After our mom invited us all in for snacks Gretchen said something about having something to do and left before she could get any pie.

(Gretchen's POV)

I could feel my heart beet all the way home. 'I can't believe that Phineas was so sensitive' I thought as I walked into my house. As I walked into my room and got ready for dinner one final thought crossed my mind 'could I be falling for Phineas?'

How many of you hate me right now? But anyway, I'm really enjoying how this story is going and I hope that you are too. But I must work on a term paper otherwise I would have made this longer. Oh and before I forget for those of you who are looking forward to my next story I have the first chapter almost ready and I plan to post it this Saturday.
