Awwwwww. That last chapter was so sweet! And sort of weird. But you're probably used to that by now. So anyway…
Isabella's pov
My eyes were trained on the jungle below us. At least, they were supposed to be. I kept looking over at Phineas, who was also looking at me. What was up with him? Ever since the kiss he'd been acting a little weird. The kiss. Did he – could he – could it be? Did he actually feel the same way about me that I felt about him? I looked out of the corner of my eye at him. He didn't catch me. He was staring at me with a dazed look in his eye, like he was in a trance.
"Hey Flynn." Vanessa said. His eyes slowly slid up to her. "Have you seen them yet? Any of them?" He shook his head and turned back to the jungle, blushing slightly.
"Hang on." He said, his full attention now on the jungle below us. "Did you see that?" Vanessa squatted to the ground next to him.
"See what?" She asked.
"It almost looked like – " He began.
"Yeee-haaah!" A voice yelled. We all looked at each other.
"Candace." We chorused.
"Hey!" I yelled. "We found one of them!"
Suzy's pov
"For the sixth time in the last five minutes, you're going to break his trance if you keep yelling like a complete idiot!" I hissed. Candace grinned and laughed much too loudly.
"Are you crazy Suzy? Nothing could snap this guy out of his happy place now!" She yelled. We saw a jet as it roared overhead. I heard the griffin growl slightly. "Except that." She said, no longer enjoying herself. I gripped the griffin's neck harder and squeezed my eyes shut.
"Hang on!" I yelled. The griffin dove and ducked, going up and down and side to side and a couple other angles I don't think have names or are humanly possible. Candace screamed her butt off, which just made him more angry than he already was. If he got any more angry, we would die a very messy death. The jet got closer. Please no. It stopped right in front of us. We all froze - the griffin, me, Candace, and Beka, who was driving the jet for some reason. Then the griffin completely flipped out. But it was already too late. I saw Beka bring up a small gun and shoot – right through the window.
The griffin disintegrated.
And we were falling down to the earth, about 5,000 feet below us.
Linda's pov
"Keep up boys, I want to be home by dinner." I said. Lawrence, Jeremy, and Francis Monogram lagged behind.
"When did you get this in shape?" Lawrence gasped.
"When my children's lives were at stake." I said. Francis shook his head and jogged up to me.
"I think the children can take care of themselves." He said.
"How do you know?" I asked.
"Maybe you should be asking them." He told me, pointing up at the jet that was slowly approaching.
"Carter?" I asked, instantly ready to kick that backstabbing jerk's scrawny butt.
"Believe me, if they wanted us dead, we'd already be dead." Francis said.
Ferb's pov
We got them. All of them alive. I sighed in relief. Good piloting Beka. I thought to my sister. She saluted comically. I looked over at Phineas. He saw me and smiled weakly. He wasn't looking so good. I went over to him. He grinned.
"Vanessa is – over there." He said in a raspy voice. I felt his forehead, and quickly pulled away.
You're burning up. I said. Are you feeling okay?
"Yes." He said quickly. I tried copying my Mum's death stare. Apparently I did it well enough because he looked down. "Okay no." He admitted. "I think it's just an allergic reaction." I raised my eyebrows.
I didn't know you had allergies. I said.
"Only to plasma." He said, then coughed. I felt the plasma blaster in my pocket. Fudge. That wasn't good. I remembered Beka had a plasma blaster too. And Mum. And Elina. And Sammy. Wow, what is it with us and plasma blasters? It's like bad irony or something.
Linda's pov
Mother could I have Phineas' allergy medication? Ferb asked. I looked up at my older son.
"Do I want to know?" I asked. Ferb thought about it.
No, most likely not.
"Here you go." I said, handing him the epee-pen Carter had invented for Phineas back when he wasn't psychotic. I turned to my long-time friend. "Emma, how long until we get to Danville?" She smiled at me.
"Don't worry. You'll be back to your normal life soon enough." She told me. I sighed.
"I wish I could just have a day or two alone without Candace screaming about her brothers." I said. Emma and Elina grinned at each other. Elina and Sammy each leaned over one of Emma's shoulders.
"She can arrange that." They chorused. I felt a smile tug at the corners of my mouth.
"Let's do it." I said.
Elina's pov
Linda and Emma were gone, which made me, without argument, the person in charge. I sat back and grinned at the 13-year-old driving the plane.
"Let's go somewhere interesting Beka." I said. The girl smiled at me.
"And where would that be commander?" She asked.
"Paris." I said. "There seem to be a lot of lovebirds on board." Beka grinned back at her twin and Vanessa, and Phineas and Isabella.
"Smashing." She said. Then she looked at the gas gage. "Oh no. Looks like we'll need to stop in Paris to refuel." I looked at it.
"It's full." I said. Sammy leaned on the fuel release switch.
"Oops." She said. "Now we need to refuel."
Ferb's pov
Candace pulled me into a corner.
"We have to get Phineas away from Carter." She said. I looked at her.
"If this is about your plan to act like we hate him, I am out. So is Isabella." I said.
"But we have to protect him!" She pleaded. I looked her in the eye.
"Candace, you know what I am capable of. I can protect him. At least let me try." I said. She looked at me.
"Fine. But if anything happens to him, it's your fault."
"Understood." I said.
"Attention passengers! We will be making a quick stop to refuel in Paris. Feel free to get off and stretch your legs, just don't go too far because the City of Love becomes the City of Pick-Pockets and Muggers after dark." Beka said. I looked at the cockpit.
Paris is hundreds of miles out of our way. I thought to her.
Just play along! Three minds ordered at once. I sighed and shook my head. Then I looked at Vanessa. I hoped I would get to give her a rose this time.
So yes, this takes place after Summer Belongs To You even though I started it before. And if you hate Phinbella or Ferbnessa, I'm sorry but I like them and it's my story. Special thanks to irken24 for helping me decide Sammy, Ferb, and Beka's ages. They are 3 years older than Phineas, Isabella, and Buford. So if you're reading Always, Ferb is 18. Anyway, I didn't plan on putting Paris in here, but sometimes stories just write themselves. So I guess you guys get an extra chapter or two.
