The Power Within ~ A Phineas And Ferb Fanfiction

Magic!

Phineas's P.O.V.

I look down to my scuffed-up hands, an idea forming in my head.

I grab my left hand with my right, and rub it. How do I do this? How do I use my element, and what even is it? I ask myself.

I close my eyes tightly and hold my hand out, attempting to concentrate. The noise around me becomes distant until it's almost not there anymore, and I feel sudden calmness. I suddenly feel almost as though the floor has fallen away and I'm just there, levitating in a void of darkness.

"Phineas!" I hear somebody yell my name through the muffled wall of dark. I open my eyes slowly, soaking the reality of everything back in. It feels like it happened slowly, but as I realized what's actually going on, I look up at my hand which is stretched out towards a scrap of metal pointed my direction. But, it's stopped in mid-air and glowing pinkish-purple.

I pull my hand back and look at it, amazed. A smile grows on my face as I point towards Ferb and it flies right back at him, faster than it was thrown at me. Though Ferb successfully dodges, I still forget about him.

Baljeet, Buford and Vanessa look at me with gaping mouths.

I look at my hand again and then I look to them, being just as surprised as they are. "Woah..." Baljeet says in awe. My happiness soon diminishes as I notice a few pieces of scrap metal really close to me and continuing to come near me with rocket speed. My hand flies up in front of my face, and I feel the same light sensation on my hand. I hear a few metal clacks, and I open my eyes to see a little bubble shield around me. "Huh... Cool!" I yell, amazed at what power I could have used for the past 14 years.

I hear Ferb growl in anger. My shield bubble fades away, and I am left with an angry Ferb. "Uh-oh..." I say as I start running the other direction. A few pieces of metal fly past me and I barely dodge them all.

During this all, Doom Diablo continues to stand in place, watching his dark-magic slave attack us.

"I WILL get you!" Ferb yells at me in anger. I turn around and put up a shield again. I look in horror as the metal he threw cracks my shield and nearly breaks it. "AW MAN!" I yell as I begin running again. I look to my hands. Perhaps I could lightly blast Ferb? Pssh, that's probably the worst I can do right now anyways.

I turn around and back peddle, and blast him lightly. All it does is make him stop flying towards me for a few seconds, but at least it's something.

I rub my hands together and try again, this time shooting with full-force. It shocks Ferb, but only for about a minute. Luckily, however, a minute is enough to get out of his view and behind the machine with Baljeet.

"DUDE that was AWESOME!" Baljeet whispers. "I know right?" I whisper back, out of breath.

"Anyway, do you have a plan? Or will we have to continue improvising, because I don't think even Buford can go on..." I say. "Yes, I do have a plan. But, I could use your magic to ensure the plan further works. Anyway, what I was thinking is-" Is all he says before Ferb comes around the machine, and with one big gust of air, crushes the machine onto a few others. "AAH!" We both scream as we get up and run.

"I SAID I WILL GET YOU!" Ferb yells, his voice suddenly booming throughout the entire room. I run and hide behind another machine while Ferb chases Baljeet. "Okay, okay... Okay... I can do this, I can take him on without hurting him... It can't be that hard..." I whisper to myself, trying to keep my optimism high. Suddenly, I hear the screeching of metal. As I plug my ears, I look around the machine to see Baljeet about to be crushed by a machine that Ferb was pushing fast in his direction. "NO!" I yell as I run to help him.

"Here goes nothin..." I mumble to myself as I run to Baljeet. I put both of my hands on the machine and put my feet out. I can feel the rubber burning from my shoes as I slow it down. I could barely feel my arms when I had finally slowed it down to ensure Baljeet was safe, but my back was on the wall and now I was about to be crushed. My arms start shaking, and the feeling was draining out of them rapidly. Ferb finally stopped blowing the machine at me, but he flew into the space I had kept and grabbed me by the collar of my shirt.

He flies me up, back to around the top of the room. "I TOLD you I'd get you... And NOW, I've GOT YOU!" He yells. I watch as his hand becomes black, like Doom's did when he turned Ferb into an evil powerful lunatic. Will Ferb do that to ME? OH boy...

I watch as the color grows into my shirt, and once it touches my skin, it immediately starts burning me. If it didn't have magical properties, I would probably be a puddle of Phineas right now. But no. I'm about to be turned into another monster. A freak of nature. A lunatic. Insane.

Evil.

I lift my head in a small attempt to get away from the black stuff running up my neck, but it won't help. I'm stuck now. I close my eyes as the black stuff begins consuming the rest of my face.

The burning doesn't last long after that. Actually... It begins feeling... good... Almost. But there aren't good things in this world. And if there ever were, well, then there aren't anymore. And I'm here to make it even more miserable for the entire world. To enslave them. And if they resist?

Well, what else is there to be done but kill them?
