Hi sorry for not updating lately, I've been in a lazy mood. But here it is, one of the final chapters of Discovery. (I said one of not the last, deal with it.)
Emma's pov
I dodged the fiery breath of the dragons and ducked behind the tree. I hoped Ferb was having an easier time at this than I was. Suddenly the shots stopped. I looked out cautiously. Elina grinned at me.
"So? What do you think of my new gadget? I got it from – " She began.
"If you say you got it from Ferb, I will kill you." I said.
"I got it from Phineas." She said.
"You what?" I asked.
"Um, okay maybe he didn't know I got it, and maybe he was unconscious at the time, and maybe he got it from Ferb in the first place, but I still got it from him." She said. I rolled my eyes and grinned. She smiled. "Hurry up, the paralyzer only lasts for about 5 minutes."
"And how long have we been sitting here threatening each other?" Sammy asked. We stared at each other.
"Shall we run?" Elina asked.
"We shall." I said.
"AHHHHH!" Sammy yelled.
Ferb's pov
"Where does this ladder lead?" Isabella asked.
And I would know because?
"Good point." We kept climbing. Finally, I touched the ground. I felt forward with my arms and hit my head on the top of some sort of tunnel.
Ouch. I thought. Hey Isabella, I believe I have found a tunnel.
"Ugh. Great. Where does it lead?" She asked.
Once again, how should I know?
"Once again, good point."
I ducked down and crawled forward on my hands and knees. It was dark, cold, and wet. I heard Isabella shivering behind me. We crawled forward for about 6 minutes until I sensed sentient minds. I stopped Isabella with a hand and reached out to the approaching minds. I felt more than one, so I centered on the closest.
If he bumps into me one more time I swear I'm gonna stuff him down the next sewage pipe we come to – if we ever get out of here. Also, I'm gonna kill Dinna Bell – if he's not already dead. Man, I hate not bein the only bully around.
I rolled my eyes in the darkness and thought-spoke to only Isabella. It's only Buford and Baljeat. Don't worry. I said.
"Who said I was worried?" She asked, her teeth chattering in the cold. I shivered as I felt a cold breeze blow over my already-sopping-wet-and-freezing body. I didn't have to tell her I knew because I had read her mind. She already knew. We kept crawling forward. Soon, Buford and Baljeat could hear us moving in the darkness.
"Who's there?" Buford asked, his voice coming out much less macho than he hoped.
"Chill, i-it's j-j-just us." Isabella stuttered. Another breeze blew by, and this time I jerked in realization. Breezes are not found under the earth. Which meant either we were a lot closer to the surface than we should be, or we were in some sort of building.
This way. I told my friends, making more noise as I crawled so they could follow me. We emerged in a hallway, an expensive-looking decorated hallway. I looked around, rubbing feeling back into my arms as my friends came out behind me.
"Where are we?" Isabella asked in awe.
"You're in the hall of captured children." A guard said. We were surrounded in less than ten seconds. "Hands up." The guard said. "We're going to see the boss." The men had guns, so we had no choice but to follow them. We were pushed into a room, where many scientists and a woman who looked like she had authority stood.
And Carter.
"You!" Isabella yelled, lunging towards him. The guards cocked their machine guns and I quickly held her back. "Let me go!" She said to me.
Of course, if you want to get shot and killed. I thought.
"you." Carter looked at me. "you, you're a telepath." I stared into his eyes, my face blank. "A telepath." He said. He seemed to think this over. "You can help us." He said. "You and the healer." He motioned to Isabella.
"Why would we help you?" Isabella spat at him.
"Because, you will be also helping your friend." He said. We looked at each other.
"What do you want us to do?" Isabella asked.
Phineas' pov
I was floating. I could feel the pain coursing through my chest, and the rest of my body in turn. It wasn't like normal pain. It was like I was in a whole different dimension, like I was not really in my body. I stretched out with my powers, but I couldn't control them. I just knew I couldn't let Carter get to me, and my powers wanted the same thing. I was fading. I saw blackness closing into me.
Phineas. Ferb. It was Ferb. He was here. I felt the blackness back off a bit. Phineas, let us through. I realized that Ferb couldn't reach me through my vortex. Wait, us? Who else was with him? I suddenly felt like I was floating in a field of clouds. Fluffy, pink clouds. Isabella was here. Oh my gosh I am dying and going insane. Maybe not insane. Maybe it's the truth. I'm in love with Isabella. Wow, I really am losing it.
Or is he? Yeah, I'm a Phinbella fan. So anyway, tell me what you think. I will try to get you guys the last couple chapters up soon because I'm really excited about this story!
