I woke up dizzy, confused and completely unaware of the situation. I saw shaded figures above my head, which slowly focused into profiles of Isabella, Phineas and the fireside girls.
"Huh?" I asked getting up.
"You... we thought... well... Ferb, he..." Isabella said,
"What? What happened?" I asked.
"On your dive down, you hit some rocks on the bottom of the lake. It must have been some dive." One of the fireside girls said,
"Your only injury was a concussion, but you were out cold for three hours."
"Lucky Ferb was there, or you would've drowned." Phineas said.
"Ferb..." I gasped,
"Where is he? Is he okay?" I asked,
"Ferb is fine. He was really worried, so he decided to take a stroll in the forest to calm himself down." Said Phineas. I sprang to my feet urgent to find him and so I set off into the midst of the trees.
It was ten O'clock and it was dark. I had been searching for Ferb for three hours. I collapsed next to a tree, I don't know whether it was exhaustion that caused me to do so, or the fact that I was still a little dizzy from my concussion. I felt soft arms entwining around me after about an hour since I collapsed. I was being lifted onto the air and I was half asleep. I was carried for minute or so and then laid down on my bed, where I fell into a deep slumber.
(Ferb's P.O.V)
I sat in front of the campfire next to my brother Phineas.
"She had me scared to death." I said as I threw a twig into the blazing fire and watched it slowly shrink in the flames' heat.
"I don't know why. I just feel that I have a really deep connection with her, like she understands why I am so quiet. As if she knows what it is like to lose a member of the family to fate, and how it feels to be the odd one out. She seems like a social person, I don't really think that she is, but she looks as if her life depends on at least one social connection." Phineas was looking intensely at me and finally said,
"Yeah. She's an angel." I looked unhappily at Phineas.
"I obviously have feelings for her." I said, an angry tone glazed my voice,
"Ferb, are you okay? You sound a little irritated." Phineas asked.
"I tell you something personal about someone and you go ahead and try to swipe it!" I yelled.
"But Ferb, she honestly is an Angel! No lies!" Phineas defended.
"There you go again!" I said, my voice growing more agitated by the second.
"If you knew what I knew about her, then maybe this argument will come to an end!" Phineas said.
"That does it." I replied,
"I'm going to bed." I walked into my cabin and slipped under the covers, then fell asleep.
(Lizzie's P.O.V)
I awoke to the noise of my watch beeping, it was twelve O'clock at night and I was about to morph into my full angel appearance. I quickly shuffled out of bed for my nightly fly. I ran out of the front door, and over twigs on the forest floor, anxious to get away before it was too late.
(Ferb's P.O.V)
I woke up due to the constant sound of a beeping watch from elsewhere in the forest. I hopped out of bed, curious to see what was going on. Then I heard twigs breaking, and knew that someone else was awake. I tiptoed out his door to see a beautiful silhouette in the moonlight. I followed it without a thought, into the open clearing.
(Lizzie's P.O.V)
I began to sprint through the meadow of frosty grass, the night's chill rushed against my face.
(Ferb's P.O.V)
I saw a shape darting through the sky as I stepped onto hmy hover board. I floated high up above the ground until I was right behind the glowing silhouette.
"Erm... excuse me?" I spoke softly, the figure turned around to find me within it's vision. "Lizzie?" I asked, intruiged as ever.
"Ferb?" She was as surprised as I was.
"Look, please don't tell okay." Lizzie pleaded me, I looked at her with a 'why-didn't-you-tell-me?' expression.
"I know I should have told you sooner, but there was never any time!" I looked at her again, my eyes blank.
"Okay, I know there WAS a chance to tell you, but..." She attempted to explain.
"I was out cold for three hours!" Then I noticed a poor little bird with a broken wing, struggling for survival. Lizzie blew some dust on it and restored it's ability to fly.
"See." She explained,
"I only use my powers for good." I nodded. She then blew some dust on me and I began to hover, it reminded me of that time Phineas and I built an anti- gravity fun launcher. Then I realised Phineas WASN'T lying, I needed to go and apologise. So I swooped down to the campsite to set things right again.
I tapped a rythym on my brother's treehouse door. Phineas woke, startled.
"Ferb, is that you?" He asked and opened the door.
He saw me standing in the doorway with a guilty face.
"I just wanted to say sorry." I told him.
"That's okay." Phineas said,
"So you found out?" I nodded.
"Cool, well I'd love to stay up all night talking, but I beleive I need to get some sleep." Phineas said as he was about to close the door,
"Having a dream about Isabella again?" I asked cheekily,
"Maybe." Phineas replied and shut the door.
I walked away, quite pleased with myself.
(Lizzie's P.O.V)
"So this Vanessa? She's a goth?" I asked ferb in the middle of our conversation. Ferb nodded and looked dreamily into the night sky.
"She sounds really cool. I'd like to meet her oneday." I replied.
"And you used to have a crush on her?" I asked. Ferb nodded again.
"She kissed me on the cheek once because I saved her life." Ferb said,
"But now she's got a boyfriend named Jhonny."
"Why don't you still like her?" I asked.
"If she's got a boyfriend, what's the point in dreaming if it's not going to follow through?" Ferb replied. I decided to switch the subject,
"So how many girls' lives have you saved now?" I asked,
"Three." He answered,
"My sister Candace, Vanessa and you."
"Don't you think it's obvious that Isabella likes Phineas?" I asked Ferb.
"More obvious than the fact that Phineas likes her back." Ferb replied.
"So, are you, back in your dimension, which I presume is the third, commonly known in the social status?" Ferb asked,
"Well if by that, you mean popular, then- no." I said,
"I have always been known as the "other one."
I etched marks with my fingers in the air.
"I'm not a very social person, on the way home from school when I'm on the bus, yes, I am in the back, but I'm always doing my homework, sitting and listening to the main conversation or just looking out the window wondering why I can't be out there."
"What do you mean by 'out there'?" Asked Ferb.
"Well, I live in the country back home, but I don't have a funny accent like in America. My house is next to a row of other houses and a gigantic paddock with hills, rivers and trees behind it. I live across the road from a beach which isn't swum in very often."
I explained. Ferb completely understood. I saw the same blank expression. But it was sorrowful.
"Are you okay Ferb?" I asked,
"It's just, my blood mother, she well- she didn't last long in this world while I was around, and allot of things remind me of her." I glanced at Ferb.
"I know how you feel, I watched my older sister die when I was eight. It's been seven years since and she was a truly innocent girl. She rarely lied and hated to do so when she did. She passed away when she was ten." I said.
"Well, I'm going to bed Ferb, this conversation is getting a bit dramatic for me." I stated.
"Night." Ferb saluted. I saluted back. We were becoming really good friends.
THE NEXT DAY
I woke up the next morning, with a heart so bouncy if it was on a trampoline it might have shot up through the atmosphere. Ferb had me in a trance, was it because he was like me? Or was it his truthful soul and gleaming eyes that had magnetised me last night? I didn't care. All I knew is that I had to tell someone, anyone! Prefferably a girl. Isabella!
(Nobody's P.O.V)
The sun gleamed in the morning and it had beamed upon Ferb's eyes as he squinted and turned in his bed in protest to the fact that it was already morning. He rubbed his eyes and yawned. He then swung his feet to the right to prepare himself for getting out of bed. Ferb quickly got changed and then headed out side for some fresh air. He walked over to his brother to ask what he wanted to do that day.
(Lizzie's P.O.V)
"Hi Isabella!" I greeted Isabella perkily that morning,
"Hey." She replied. I decided to grab her attention,
"I swear I saw Phineas staring at Isabella just then." I whispered loudly enough for Isabella to hear. "What?" She asked,
"Oh nothing." I replied walking away slowly,
"Did you just say that Phineas was staring at me?" Isabella asked excitedly.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Wait a minute- you have a crush!" She shouted,
"How did you know?" I whispered, intrigued.
"Well, I learnt how to read emotions for the fireside girls- but I can never predict Phineas's emotions. I'm pretty sure that you have feelings for a guy who's standing next to Phineas right now though." Isabella stated and peered towards Phineas's direction.
"Oh my gosh! You like Ferb!" She gasped,
"Shhh... I'm not sure if he likes me back though, and I don't want to risk my embarrassment, because I'd be heart broken if he made fun of me." I said.
"Ferb's not that kind of guy." Isabella replied.
"If he doesn't like a girl, he'll let her down easy. I know because Phineas would always try to uninfluence that behaviour if possible."
"I bet he'll be asking you out in no time." Isabella assured me.
"Really?" I asked,
"You think so?"
"I know so." She replied.
"Ferb will think about a girl and the fact that he'll be dating her will affect him and his familys' or brothers friendship with him will depend on if it's good, bad or just nuetral." She said.
"How do you know all this?" I asked.
"I have been studying Phineas for a long time and Ferb is usually always with him. So I've accidentally picked up some stuff about Ferb along the way." She replied.
"Ferb's had a girlfriend? Who was it?" I asked,
"Actually, he didn't have a girlfriend, but when he thinks he's alone with Phineas, he will talk endlessly. And it just so happened that when I was watching Phineas, I overheard Ferb discussing the fact that a girl would never break their bond." Isabella said.
"He has found a girl with a massive crush on him several times before though, she's always attempting to persuade him to become her boyfriend. Sometimes even, she tries to steal Phineas, but Phineas always turns her down nicely."
"What's her name?" I asked.
"Mishay. Mishay Curse." Isabella said, she shuddered at the name.
It sounded all too familiar, the name, the plot. It was like De Ja Vou all over again. Then I remembered.
"Thanks for the heads up and the encouragement Isabella." I said,
"And by the way, I think you and Phineas are perfect for each other." I complimented her and walked off.
(Ferb's P.O.V)
"So... Phineas- what do you want to do today?" I asked. Phineas ignored me,
"Isn't she beautiful?" Phineas asked rhetorically,
"Who? Isabella or Elizabeth?" I asked.
"Isabella." Phineas said and looked dreamily into her eyes.
"Last night was so interesting Phineas." I told him,
"I've never met a girl like her, and my assumptions were correct. I really like her."
"Cool." stated Phineas, still not looking at me. He slowly drew his attention from Isabella to me.
"I might ask her out later." Ferb said,
"Why don't you ask out Isabella, to get this whole, 'stare at her from afar' thing out of your system?" I asked.
"I can't do that!" Phineas protested,
"What if she doesn't like me?"
"Well she wouldn't hate you if you just asked once." I replied,
"True, true. Hmmm... Okay I'll do it." Phineas answered.
"Great." I concluded,
"I'll seeya round." I ended our conversation and waved him goodbye before I headed towards the spot where Lizzie was standing at the time.
(Lizzie's P.O.V)
"Hey Eizzel." Ferb greeted me and looked shyly into my eyes.
"How did you know that was my nickname back home?" I asked,
"I didn't- I just thought it would be a good nickname for you." Ferb smiled at me. I began to blush slightly.
"So... I was wondering that maybe..." Ferb said and started to become tense. He pulled his collar to the side with his finger and then spoke again,
"...maybe we could hang out some time, like down by the waterfall?" He asked timidly.
I experienced a HUGE love rush. (A 'love rush' is when you can feel an excitement of romance through your body and it gives you a really happy feeling).
"I would love to." I replied, smiling sweetly.
"So, tonight?" He asked releived.
"Tonight." I repeated his words as to agree on the term.
I walked towards Isabella to tell her the news when I sensed someone behind me.
"Hello there ." A female voice hissed, I recognised the voice instantly and spun around to find Mishay standing there.
"What do you want?" I asked aggressively,
"I can see someone got up on the wrong side of the cloud." Mishay stated. She always did have a knack for antagonizing angels.
"Arent' you supposed to be burning in hell?" I asked, my voice increasing in volume.
"I've just come here to say that back in our universe I've finally persuaded Trevor." She said, waiting for a reply drenched in anger.
"I don't enjoy his presence anymore." I stated.
"He broke my heart for the last time last Saturday. We no longer cross paths." I said. "It's a pity your new friends have to endure the suffering on Friday the thirteenth, on the day of Burning Serenity."
"What are you talking about? That friday is in eleven days." I said.
"So you better hurry, because time is running out. For you, and the rest of this dimension." Mishay whispered slyly and slipped out of vision strangely.
I ran over and caught up with Ferb.
"Ferb! Ferb!" I yelled,
"What? What is it? Are you okay?" He asked scanning me to make sure I was alright,
"I'm fine. But you're not." Ferb looked at me with a puzzled expression.
"Mishay is back." I said. Ferb gasped,
"There is something unnatural about that girl." He said.
"Ferb, she's a devil. Literally! I don't know how, but for some reason she has followed me into this dimension. She said something about Friday the thirteenth and the day of 'Burning Serenity." I glanced at Ferb,
"Hang on a minute- Ferb, do you still have that GPS navigator?" I asked him,
"Yes, why?" He asked.
"Because if your dimension is anything like mine, it'll have the Cave of Inscriptions somewhere." I replied,
"I heard about that in one of the ancient history books I read." Ferb said,
"I'll just go get my navigator."
"I'll come with you." I replied.
Wow. That took a while. I'm sorry about the romance, I know- it's really rushed and all. Btw, my real name is NOT Lizzie. Or Elizabeth. Kay? I do NOT have a romantic obsession with Ferb either. I DO have a normal obsession- kinda predictable, yeah. And creepy. But- hey! What'cha gonna do? I'll tell you- absolutely NOTHING.
OMG...FEET!
