Are you people dead? Cause I thought I'd get more reviews on the last chap! ;P JK


-2 HOURS REMAIN-

The sun rose on the final day. Phineas had been keeping an eye on his wristwatch for the past hour as the gang headed to the beach, leaving a note to their parents telling where they were. It was agreed on that he would die there, where he felt the most of Summer Vacation. When they arrived, no one was there yet. But they knew what awaited them.

-1 1/2 HOURS REMAIN-

Isabella and Phineas did not leave each other for a moment when they got back together for the day, and were sitting on the sandy beaches as they watched the sun creep up over the horizon. Tears were already in Isabella's eyes as she leaned further into her husband. Everyone was saddened by the day, but none as bad as her. Phineas kissed her head, holding her close.

"...Remember when I was wanting to watch that sunset with you back on the island?", Phineas asked, earning a weak chuckle.

"Yeah...", she said, choked up a bit. "I wanted you to so badly, but hated more how you were going to just give up..."

"You really are the best.", Phineas smiled. "Anyway, I was going to say, at least I get to watch a sunrise with you. Some say the rise is more beautiful."

"But the sun's going to set on you in 52 minutes.", Isabella said, giving a shaky sigh as the tears fell.

Phineas reached over to kiss her cheek and hugged her tighter.

"It's okay.."

"I wish we had this sooner..."

"...Me too.."

- 30 MINUTES REMAIN-

There was something of a bed made for when the moment came. Phineas laid on it as his friends and family were around, Isabella, never once letting go of his hand. Tears were falling, goodbyes were said. Phineas looked over at her, reaching up and brushing a few tears from her eyes.

"Isabella.. Could you do something for me?", he asked.

"Anything."

"Please.. The last thing I want to see is your smile..", he begged softly.

She only wanted to cry harder but she forced one onto her face. She looked at him, saw his, and hers became real. All of a sudden, cold silent Buford broke down into tears and bawled hysterically, surprising everyone.

"OH MY GOSH!", he cried, finally unable to restrain. "Of all Summer long, all the adventures we've had, everything you've ever done Phineas! Why do you have to die NOW? Why today does the sand have to drip out of your hour glass? Phineas Flynn, for a long time I have been just another mindless bully. But spending this time with you has done more than just open all of our eyes to so much of the world. But of all the crazy things we've done, YOU were the one who taught us to believe things more often but never to expect any specific thing from Life. That every day could be the best ever and it never had to stop there! You've shown us the universe! You've shown us the impossible! You've taught us exactly how much that just the mere belief of things can make ANYTHING possible! You taught us how to seize the day! Why does YOURS have to end? Who else could bring so much life to our existences? Who else could make our dog days of summer so cool?"

Everyone was watching him as he spilled out his heart and then completely fell apart when he was done. Phineas couldn't exactly remember another time he felt more touched by a speech than that. One thing was for sure. There was no doubt he had really learned many a thing from France.

"Oh my gosh, Buford. Were you holding that in this WHOLE time?", Baljeet asked.

"Yes!", the bully sniffed as he sobbed some more, wiping away the tears. "Yes I have!"

Perry, who had also been holding himself rather well was beginning to tear up a bit. He sniffed a bit and wiped the quickly pursuing tears from his eyes.

"...Perry? Are you crying?", Candace asked, looking down at the monotreme.

"N-no! It's.. It's just these stupid contacts!", the platypus sniffled.

Phineas looked over at his pet and smiled a bit, a tear escaping him as he placed a reassuring hand on Perry's shoulder. The agent looked back as tears fell and came up to the bed, nestling himself between Phineas' arm and body, letting himself sob quietly. Phineas ran a hand through the soft fur a bit, smiling a bit. He looked around and settled his eyes on his wife who was also crying.

"I'm going to miss you, my brave hero..", she said quietly.

"Not even death can stop me from loving you, my lovely lady.", Phineas replied with a smile. "It may be another adventure, but nothing will ever stop my heart from beating for you."

"...15 seconds.", Ferb said with a cracked voice from the crying, looking down at his watch.

Phineas took a bit of a breath to prepare himself and gave a nod, saying, "Okay... I'm ready."

Perry got down to stand back with Candace again.

"5...", Baljeet and Buford said, looking at Baljeet's watch.

"4...", Ferb and Candace counted.

"3...", Perry timed, taking off his hat.

"2...", Isabella whispered, clutching his hand tightly.

"1.", Phineas said before letting out his breath.

Everyone began to openly cry as Phineas' body was still, his eyes were shut, and Isabella clutched his limp hand tighter.


TONIGHT! IT ALL HAPPENS TONIGHT! BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA! *Runs out of the room cackling*
