Chapter 8: Where's Isabella?

Ferb's Point of View

We poured over the information for hours before we finally came up with a plan to bust Phineas and Isabella out of the camp. Buford and Baljeet would make a distraction while Candace, Irving, and I snuck into the camp in a secret passageway, grab Phineas and Isabella, and hightail it out of the camp while calling Baljeet and Buford away from the fighting. Simple right? Wrong!

Almost immediately it went wrong. Buford's gun jammed up pretty quickly and Baljeet was a terrible aimer, but he served his purpose of a distraction, especially since we gave Buford a spare electric pulse gun. Candace, Irving, and I were able to sneak through to the camp but instead of finding Isabella and Phineas, we got into a small gun fight with a couple guards who had decided to sleep on the floor in the prisoner dormitory. Who does that anyway?

Isabella's Point of View

We were just shown around and what we were to have to do while we were in the camp. Apparently we were making bullets for the German war effort… Go figure… We were shown how to use everything that we needed or wanted to know (except how to escape, that just got me a cuff on the ear from the guards and Phineas rolling his eyes at my [somewhat] dim hope that he would tell us) about the place. We were shown to which dormitory we were supposed to sleep in and both of us immediately went to sleep.

"Hey Isabella…" I didn't respond. "Isabella please wake up!" I opened my eyes to see Phineas trying to wake me up.

"What is it?" I asked. Of course then I heard gunfire outside the dormitory. "No Phineas!" I said it almost too loudly, for the guard in the corner almost woke up. "Please don't leave me like this!" I was pleading with someone who was very stubborn and he just left without me saying that he would be back for me in the end… What could I do? I just went back to my bed and cried myself to sleep.

Phineas's Point of View

"Of course she wouldn't come!" I muttered to myself as I headed out the door to see Ferb, Candace, and Irving battling against maybe 30 different people with regular guns. Of course I saw that Ferb, Candace and Irving were armed with what appeared to be Electric Pulse guns, so I didn't count them out just yet. I ran over to Ferb jumped on him and hugged him before asking for a gun and begin shooting at those people who were trying (and failing) to kill my friends and family.

Ferb's Point of View

We had been battling for maybe twenty minutes when I heard someone run over to us. I turned ready to shoot someone down but noticed that he was unarmed. I was confused long enough for him to jump on me and hug me.

"Oh Ferb!" Phineas said. "It is so good to see you again!"

"Phineas?" I asked. "Where's Isabella?"

"She decided not to come out," Phineas responded looking sad. "Here give me a gun and let me help!" I gave him a gun but I told the others to pull back and we retreated from the battle with the German guards. We found Baljeet and Buford really well off. They were just sitting near a tree with maybe fifty different guards lying unconscious around them. We took them and ran into the forest.

"Phineas!" Candace almost shouted hugging her little brother. "Where's Isabella? I thought that she was with you."

"She is…was…" Phineas responded sadly. "She's still in there, and I couldn't convince her to leave. I don't think she trusted herself enough to leave the building while you guys were battling the guards."

"We'll get her back Phin!" I said and everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

Isabella's Point of View

I am such an idiot! I don't even know what Phineas's escape route had been or what it involved as well as not to mention the fact that Phineas had just left me here. What's wrong with me? Why didn't I leave with Phineas last night? I thought to myself over the small meager breakfast the inmates received. Fortunately some people were very kind to me and let me join in on their conversations; I became very close friends with them.

I waited for days on end when Phineas would break back into the camp to free me. But he never did. I thought that Phineas might have forgotten me and left with the others, leaving me to suffer through this horrible life time.
