I don't own Phineas and Ferb. Curse you, Jeff "Swampy" Marsh and Dan Povenmire!
Ch. 6: Change of Plans
Candace and Stacy had spent the day at the mall having the time of their life. Stacy was Candace's best friend and vice versa. She had some Japanese heritage, long black hair, a blue bow in her hair, a turquoise T-shirt, a blue skirt, a purple bracelet on her arm, light blue stockings paired with black dress shoes on her legs.
Stacy was sad when Candace told her that they were moving, but she was just glad she could spend their remaining hours together as BFF's. After the two left the mall, Candace drove them to the old middle school, to remember the good times they had before Phineas and Ferb got her into busting. As the sun set, the two laughed as they remembered events from their childhood while standing outside of the car.
"Ahhh, those were the good old days." said Stacy.
"Yeah. I'm gonna miss those days." said Candace.
"Yeah, my Mom is probably going to make me go to some boring school where everyone is uptight and bossy. I'm gonna miss having you as a friend." said Stacy.
"Me too, but I'm sure you'll meet at least one guy who likes you." reassured Candace.
"Thanks, but what about you and Jeremy? Have you told him about the move?" she asked.
Just thinking about breaking up with Jeremy made Candace said. Jeremy was her boyfriend and possibly true love. Jeremy was the same age as her, with blonde hair, a brown shirt underneath a green shirt, and cargo shorts. He was her first and only love. Next to busting her brothers, she was obsessed with him. His little sister kept trying to keep them apart, but Candace persisted. And during the summer, they officially became boyfriend and girlfriend, and had their first kiss. Candace didn't want it to end.
"Um, I think I'm gonna wait a little. I don't want him to be bummed the rest of the week." she said.
"Suit yourself. But you're going to have to tell him- SEA MONSTER!"
"What the heck does that mean?"
Stacy pointed behind her and Candace looked. Right next to the school was the town's M.O.A.T. and a giant sea monster was swimming toward them. He sped like a bullet and getting Candace soaked by a tidal wave of water. Then the pirate ship carrying her brothers followed and splashed her as well.
"Is that all?" she asked with her hair dripping wet.
"Nope." said Stacy. Candace quickly switched places with Stacy to avoid getting wet. Bob and Tiana came by and did the same thing. Candace closed her eyes, but when she opened them again, Stacy was hit by two drops of water.
"Oh COME ON!" she yelled.
SPLASH!
Then the water she was expecting splashed onto her.
"*Ugh* That was Phineas and Ferb, wasn't it?" Candace asked as she wrung her hair out.
"Yep." said Stacy.
Nosey had stopped and the pirate ship came to a smooth halt along with Bob and Tiana, who had skiied onto land. The gangplank was lowered and everyone walked off.
"Hi Candace." said Phineas.
"What are you two doing here? I thought you were supposed to be at Grandma and Grandpa's for the rest of the week." she said angrily.
"We didn't say that. We asked if you could drop us off at Grandma and Grandpa's, we never said how long we'd be there."
"Great. Just when I thought I had the week off from you two, this happens. Also, why are Grandma, Grandpa, Bob, and Aunt Tiana with you?" she asked.
"We'll explain on the way home. Boy, you won't believe the day we had."
"I have a feeling I will."
"Cool. Nosey, can you put the ship in a safe spot?" Phineas asked. Nosey dove underneath the ship, and whacked it out of the water and safely onto land in the back of the school. "Thanks Nosey. Oh I almost forgot."
He pulled a bottle of sunscreen he grabbed earlier and rubbed some sunscreen on Nosey. "There you go buddy. If we need anything else, Ferb will send another message like earlier. See ya. I'll try to bring more sunscreen next time." said Phineas as he waved to Nosey who dove under the water.
Candace managed to get everyone into the station wagon and drove them home. On the way, Phineas told her about the ship, their plan, Khaka Peu Peu, the rapids, being kidnapped, Nosey saving them, and then them returning. By the time they got home, Phineas had finished his story, much to Candace's relief.
"-And that's what happened." finished Phineas.
"Yeah. Great. Can you get out now?" Candace asked dryly.
Everyone got out of the van and grabbed whatever they brought with them. Phineas grabbed a suitcase when he saw a taxi in front of their house.
"Thanks for the drive, me boy." said the old man getting out of the cab. His face reminded Phineas of Ferb, but this man had a bald spot, a white mustache, a monocle, a red bowtie, criss-crossed vest, with a purple vest underneath, pants that were raised too high, and had an English accent.
"Darn British with their weirdo accents." grumbled the grumpy cab driver. The man helped his elderly wife, who had a light purple dress, white hair in a bun, glasses, and a big hat with a feather in it, out of the cab.
Ferb saw them too and said, "Grandpa?" Ferb knew that the two were his grandparents, Reginald and Winifred Fletcher)
"Ferb, me boy! Glad to see ya again." said Grandpa Fletcher.
(From now on Betty Jo and Clyde are Grandma and Grandpa Flynn, and Reginald and Winifred Grand and Grandma Fletcher).
Ferb went to him and the two shared a hug.
"So Grandpa, why are you two here?" Phineas asked curiously.
"Oh there you are Phineas. Sharp as the bee's stinger you are, you see I just got a reversal on my toe-holders, when the bloody first Queen Izzy went kerblooey and tea-timed our house." said Grandpa Fletcher.
"Ferb?" Phineas asked, hoping for a translation.
"Either it's raining frogs and he needs to get a turqoise umbrella to his friend Fred's gerbil, or that he just got surgery where his feet were turned around, and that Queen Elizabeth the First destroyed their house." guessed Ferb.
"Second one, actually. Look for yourself." he said as he pulled out some pictures. "Here's us, getting home after the surgery, and here's Queen Elizabeth the First before crashing into our house, and here's after."
Phineas took a closer look and after flipping through them like a flipbook, Phineas said "Yep, that's definitely Queen Elizabeth. Or at least, a robot, un-manned version of her."
"Who in their right mind would let a robotic Queen Elzabeth the First run amok?" asked Buford.
Perry gulped nervously as he remembered that he never turned off the robot. He just assumed it crashed or ran out of fuel, but it looked like Queen Elizabeth had been running for awhile.
"Sorry to hear about that." said Phineas.
"Well, it could have been worse." said Grandma Fletcher.
"You mean like you could have been inside the house?"
"No, it could have been Queen Elizabeth the Second. But what's been done has been done. At least I managed to salvage some memories."
She pulled out a suitcase and showed the boys some of her memorabilia. Inside, they saw a picture of their Grandpa as the Flying Fishmonger, along with his fishmonger name tag, and a black and white picture of a young woman.
"Hey Grandma, who's this?" Phineas asked.
"Yeah, she kinda looks hot." said Buford as he peeked a glimpse at the photo.
"That's me when I was younger." said Grandma Fletcher.
"I retract my statement." said Buford.
"Yes. That was back when I used to teach."
"You used to teach?" Phineas asked as they finished getting all the luggage out of both cars.
"Yes. I thought it was obvious by my collection of Sherlock Holmes. I used to teach English. Ahh, those were the days." she sighed happily.
"In fact, that's how I met her. I was delivering fish when I first met her. Which led to me quitting the fish business and start teaching History." said Grandpa Fletcher.
"Wait, so you both were teachers?" said Phineas.
"Yep. Or at least before that replaced us with some younger teachers." said Grandma Fletcher.
"Yes, those were the good old days." said Grandpa Fletcher. Phineas and Ferb shared a glance and they knew they were thinking the same thing.
"I got an idea. What if there was a way for you to relive your glory days AND make some money to rebuild your house?" Phineas offered.
"We accept." said Grandpa Fletcher.
"But don't you want to hear us out?"
"Not really. We just want to get our stuff inside."
"Well that was easy."
Buford said, "Meh. Sounds like something a lazy writer would do to speed up the-"
"Um Phineas, quick question. What about your other grandparents, uncle, and aunt?" Isabella reminded.
"Oh don't worry, we got that covered." said Phineas. "Follow me."
Everyone followed Phineas to the backyard and waited for something to happen. Phineas pulled a remote out and turned it on. Instantly, a small clubhouse arose from the ground.
"That's it?" said Grandma Flynn.
"Wait for it." said Phineas.
Then, the clubhouse rose as more stories rose from the ground turning it into a tower. It stopped when an elevator door came up and opened.
"There you go. It has everything you need for a good night's rest: beds, blankets, clean bathrooms, catered breakfast, etc. Who wants to step in first?" Phineas offered.
The 6 exchanged glances, then Grandpa Flynn yelled "PIRATES FIRST!" as he dashed to the door, along with everyone else following him.
"I think they like it." said Phineas.
"Nice try, Phineas, but you can't get away with this. Just wait until Mom sees this." said Candace.
"Actually Candace, do you think you could keep our plan a secret for awhile? I want to surprise Mom and Dad when this is finished. You know, like cover for us?"
"COVER FOR YOU? I'd never-"
"Um, can you give us a moment?" Stacy asked as she put a hand over Candace's mouth.
"Okay, let me just lower this." said Phineas as he hit a button that lowered the fort into the ground. Stacy dragged Candace so Phineas wouldn't hear them.
Candace removed Stacy's hand and yelled "What was that for!" she yelled.
"Candace, you're my best friend, but you almost did the dumbest thing ever." said Stacy.
"What do you mean?"
"You tried to bust your brothers the one time they are doing something that benefits you."
"But Stacy. I need to bust!"
"Why is this so important?"
"BECAUSE! It started as just showing them to Mom as these cool things, but now it's to bust them for building dangerous things that could backfire and kill us all! I need to bust them!"
"No you don't! Besides, look at your past record. Every day, they build something new and it disappears that same day. Now they might actually keep you from-"
"STACY! You're a genius!" exclaimed Candace.
"Thanks. Can you tell my Mom that?"
"It makes sense now. I know how to bust them! I just have to wait?"
"Huh?"
"Don't you get it? In one day, they make a big contraption that always disappears magically. But what would happen if they built a ginourmous thing in one week?"
"Um, it'll disappear logically?"
"No! It'll be so big, that nothing can move it. All I have to do is let them fix the school so that we don't have to move, then, it'll be so huge and unmovable, Mom will have to see that they made a super school."
"Yeah, but what about the bad guys they mentioned?"
"Didn't you listen? They said the Peu Peu guy was in it. He's just one of their friends and that this "super villain" thing is just a game they're playing so that they can look like heroes before Summer ends."
"You do realize this plan has tons of holes in it and I'm not helping you."
"I'll buy you those cute shoes you couldn't afford."
"Deal."
While the girls plotted for the ultimate bust, Doofenshmirtz was plotting at-
Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporateeed!
...What they said.
Khaka was soaking wet and had his head stuck in a chair while Dr. Diminuative was still coughing up acorns from where he landed.
"I'm gonna guess that you two failed." guessed Heinz.
"Well don't blame us. That platypus had a pirate ship and a sea monster, thank you very much." said Khaka.
"Not to mention, his owners helped. *Hack*" added Dr. Diminuative.
"Is this going to take any longer, I have to get home to Gerald." said Dr. Bloodpudding.
"Who is he your son or something?" said Heinz.
"Actually, he's a giant, floating, interdimensional baby head that I adopted. It keeps wondering off in the day and into the suburbs for some reason."
"... Riiiight. Well, since you two failed, we need a new approach. MITCH!" yelled Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
"Yeah, what do you want? Your other dimension self and I are already working on the "weapons" for the attack." said Mitch.
"Do you have any spare robots?"
"Tons, why?"
"We're going to need them for our next attempt at capturing Perry."
"Whatever. I'll have then here by morning." Under his breath he grumbled "How did it come to this."
"Excellent. Now nothing can stop- Hey-hey I just realized, where's Vanessa?"
"You kicked her out and told her to never come back." reminded Rodney.
"Oh, right. Yeah, Good riddance." he said, not being so fully truthful.
By now, the sun had set and Vanessa was at the park. She was exhausted from walking all day and decided to was time to rest. Before she left to find Perry and his owners, she had snuck back into her Dad's lair and took some supplies for herself. She took a map of the Tri-State Area, one of her Dad's ray guns, a sleeping bag, $100, the address of Phineas of Ferb's house that she tore from her Dad's phonebook, and her phone.
She pulled her phone out and shined the light from it onto the map. She looked at the map and saw that Phineas and Ferb weren't too far away. She couldn't turn to her boyfriend, because he didn't want to think her dad was crazy(er) and dump her. She wished she could call her Mom, but she would never believe her. She set up her sleeping bag and drifted off to sleep. Thinking of one thing.
"Get ready Dad. You're going to be busted."
End of Ch. 6
Ooooh, things are getting good. It's the end of Day Two, so the boys now have only 5 days before the week ends and so does Summer. Can they get the school up and running? Find out in Ch.7: Searching for Independent Multiple Professors (Title May Change). Please review and sorry about the Vanessa part. I came up with that on the spot.
