Okay guys, here it is. Man I can't believe we're already on chapter 16. As soon as I finish this story I'm going to get started on my other story again. Sorry about not updating that one too much. … Anyways, enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Phineas and Ferb. Even if I did, why the heck would I write on fanfiction?
Phineas's POV
I bolt up and face the new man. He has a hood covering his face, so I can't say much about his appearance. However, he is rather tall. His voice was somewhat deep, but high in other respects.
"Who- who are you?"
"Let's just say, I'm on your side."
"Let's just say, I'll kill you of you don't answer." I said threateningly, not actually wanting to act.
"You'd kill your best friend?" he said, shocked, but happily.
No way. "Ferb?" I say, not being able to believe him.
In answer, he lowers his hood, revealing his bright green hair and other obvious features. (Congrats to TheNargana for getting it right :D)
"It's- it's great to see you!" I say, unable to say anything else.
He nods, as if saying, 'you too'.
"I think we need to talk." he says.
"Uh. Okay-?" I say.
"You know I'm with the assassins, right?" he asks quickly.
I nod, unsure of where this is going.
"Just keep in mind, I'm on your side." he repeats.
"Get on with it…"
"I was part of a trusted circle."
"Was?"
"They wanted you down."
"So- 'was' right?"
"Of course."
I nod, showing him to go on. I need to be back soon. So many things could happen. Best case scenario is that she won't wake up, worst would be Baljeet's thugs find her.
"Baljeet- I'm sure you're well aquatinted with him- as you know, ordered you to kill the princess-"
"Which I'm NOT going to do."
"I know- and agree-"
"Wait. You- agree?"
"Would you listen! He threatened to take down the society if you weren't killed as well."
"Oh. But there's a problem."
"Other than you dying?"
"Yeah. I found his hideout- and his journal."
"Which said?" he asked, genuinely curious.
"Long story short- he's taking the society down regardless. He has enough evidence-"
"Yeah he told us about that. But he's taking down the society anyways? That makes sense I guess. Have us turn on each other and kill us in the process."
"Listen" I start, "I love seeing you again, but I must get back to Isa-"
"Yeah, we should go find her."
"We?" I ask uncertainly.
"Yes we. You need help. I need something to do." he said, the final part sarcastically.
I laugh a bit and continue, "Okay, 'we' should go meet up with her."
It was good to have my old friend back. It's almost like my whole life's falling back together.
"WHERE THE HECK WERE YOU?!" she yells.
"Isabella, do you want the whole kingdom knowing where we are? I had to go. Sorry. But, I did-"
"What?! I thought you left me! Or we're taken! Or-"
"First, why would I leave? Second, do you honestly think I would be taken but YOU wouldn't be."
"Fair points. Just don't do it again."
"How long have you been up?"
"Long enough to worry half to death. … Just a while."
"Sorry. Anyways, I did meet up with someone…"
"Who I may ask?"
"An old friend…"
"Meaning?"
"Remember that story I told you?"
"Where you're parents-"
"Yeah. Remember Ferb?"
"Of course. Oh. Is that-"
"Yeah. It is. He's going to help us."
"He is?"
"I think we should talk-"
"About?"
"Some changes the- uh, society made."
"Must we talk about them?!" she said, a bit angrily.
"I er- quit."
"You- you did what?"
"Well, I alway knew I wouldn't go back. Well since we met anyways. And now they're out to get me-"
"Wait! You were going to anyways? And what do you mean, 'out to get you'? I thought you'd get extra points for killing extra-"
"People? Actually, no. You get kicked out A.K.A killed. I've been wanting to leave for a while, but I was too afraid. But then, I realized its better to die with honor than live like a coward." I said, the last part with a smile.
She caught on, and immediately smiled. "Well then, maybe I owe you an ap-"
"No. You don't. Everything you said was true. I have been living in complete fear. I've been surviving by killing others. That's no way to live. At least not killing innocents." I said, too disappointed in myself to even continue. But I do anyways. "And just because my parents were killed- because people thought them to be assassin I may add- doesn't give me an excuse to go out taking my anger out on random people. And-"
"No. Where would we be now if you hadn't?"
"That's- that's true." I say, partially at a loss for words. Was she actually okay with me joining?
"So how about you tell me more about the 'out to get you' thing?"
I nod, and begin explaining.
"Oh my gosh. S-sorry I didn't believe me when you warned me. It would have saved you so much trouble. And-"
"No. No. Don't apologize. Why the heck would you believe me? You thought I was going to-"
She completely ignored the second part, and cut me off. "No. I should have. We talked more and were closer in one night than I ever was with him. He ignored me. He never talked to me. I should have-"
"No. Stop apologizing."
Before I knew it, I found myself rushing up and hugging him.
