Chapter 9: Next Step

Candace could hardly wait for it to be a decent enough hour of the morning for her to call Dan, luckily she had to call Isabella, that would help pass the time. By 9:00 Candace had finished her conversation with Isabella, only getting her to say that she was busy with her mom's restaurant and didn't have much time to hang out with the boys. Candace had been eating breakfast in the kitchen while she talked to Isabella and she then walked into the living room with her phone still in hand and plopped down on the couch, after propping her feet up on the coffee table she put the phone back to her ear to call Dan. It wasn't long before Candace heard a voice on the other end say
“Hello this is Dan Povenmire”
“Hi Dan it’s Candace”
“Candace! Good to hear from you, did you get all the permission you needed?”
“Yup, I think I talked to just about everyone I know, and my brothers were super excited about it”
“Great, are you ready for the next step?”
“Sure, what do you need me to do next” Candace asked with curiosity at finding out the next step of this journey
“Next I’ll give you my email address and I need you to send me pictures of all the people you wrote about so Swampy and I can work on turning them into cartoon characters. Meanwhile you can convert your story into script form”
“That should be easy enough, what's the email” Candace wrote on a piece of paper while Dan recited his email address, then she hung up, grabbed her laptop and began searching for pictures, she surprised herself with how many people she had pictures of on her laptop, honestly she didn't know where half of them came from. The only person she found she didn't have a picture of was Vanessa's dad, so she opened a web browser and typed “pharmacist”, after scrolling through a few results she found a picture of a pharmacist with brown hair, and a strangely mantis like posture, who she thought looked like a good evil scientist. she copied and pasted the picture into the email she was making, but after doing so the thought if i'm gonna use vanessa’s dad as the character, than the cartoon should at least look like him. she quickly shot Vanessa an email asking for a picture. Candace got up to get a glass of water and by the time she got back there was a new email from Vanessa with a picture of her dad attached.
“That was fast” Candace commented to no one as she sat back down. When she opened the picture she was shocked to see that it was the exact same one that she found on the internet “Wow what a coincidence” Candace thought out loud, and then began compiling all the pictures into an email for Dan. Once that task was out of the way she opened the document containing her story and began converting it into a script, it took her the whole week to do this particularly because her week was extremely busy anyway, but finally she finished and was able to send it to Dan, he responded with an email saying “Thanks, I’ll get back to you soon” But as the days dragged on Candace was beginning to think “soon” really meant never. Just as Candace was about to run out of patience and call him, Dan emailed her with concept drawings of the characters and scenery for her approval. She was amazed at how well they we're able to transform her family into cartoons. Dan said that it would be a while while they began putting together the animation and even longer to get the finished product, and in the meantime she should find a recording studio and get her friends to record the voices, and if she needed any help she should call him. So that's just what Candace did, first she sent copies of the script to everyone, and the next week she took a group of people to the recording studio to record their lines.

Chapter 8: Moment of Truth

Candace was both nervous and excited, even though she had little doubt that her brothers would say yes she still couldn't help being the tiniest bit nervous about their answer, this would be the moment of truth to determine whether or not she would make a TV show. She grabbed her purse and jumped in her car but before she left she decided to call Farb to make sure it was still okay for her to come over. When he picked up the phone she immediately said
“Hey Ferb it’s Candace i'm just calling to make sure it still okay that I come over.”
“Absolutely, we don't have any plans today so you should be good.”
“What? Ferb Fletcher and Phineas Flynn have no plans!” Candace said in her best astonished voice.
“Well that's not entirely true, Phineas is drawing a blueprint for a tiny robot and I'm reading a book about advanced quantum mechanics.”
“Really? Advanced quantum mechanics? Can't you read a normal book like Moby Dick or The Wizard of Oz?”
“Frankly I’d much rather be reading one of those books but this is for a school assignment.”
“Oh, well i'm in the car now so i'll see you in a bit.”
“I can't wait to see you, bye.”
“Bye.”
Candace put her phone back in her purse and pulled out her keys, she started the car and began driving down the road. In no time at all she turned onto maple drive and the house she still referred to as home came into sight, she pulled into the driveway and hopped out of her car, she made a quick decision to head for the back gate rather than the front door because she assumed on a day like today that's where her brothers would be. She unlatched and pushed open the gate, and sure enough Phineas had his drafting table set up under the tree and Ferb was leaning against the tree reading a book. When the gate creaked Phineas (who had his back to her) said
“Hi Isab-” he stopped mid-sentence when he turned and saw her, then exclaimed “Candace!” Before jumping up and running over to hug her, Ferb followed close behind. “Candace what a cool surprise, why are you here?” He let go of Candace and stepped back so they could see each other
“Ferb!” She said accusingly and stared down her green haired brother, she didn’t like coming unannounced, he shrugged innocently then candace said “please tell me you at least told mom I was coming” Right on cue the back door slid open and Linda stepped outside.
“Candace! It's so good to see you, why didn't you tell me you were coming.” Linda said as she walked over and hugged her. Candace glared over at Ferb who began whistling and walked away slowly.
“I told Ferb I was coming, I assumed he told you guys. I came to talk to the boys about that thing I told you about earlier this week.” Candace replied to her mother
“Oh that’s right, well you guys go ahead and talk, i’ll bring you some snacks in a minute.” With that Linda retreated into the house
“Thanks, mom,” Phineas said then he turned to Candace, “talk to us about what?”
“Well,” Candace said while she walked over to the tree and sat down, the boys did the same, “I wrote a story for my writing class about the time you guys built the rollercoaster. There was a guy visiting my class who read the story and said he wanted to make it into a TV show, but since it's about you guys I need your permission first.” when Candace finished talking it took less than two seconds for Phineas to respond.
“Wow that’s soooo cool, of course you have our permission.” Ferb nodded in agreement and gave her a thumbs up with both hands.
“Thanks guys you're the best,” she said giving them both a quick hug, just than Linda came into the back yard carrying a tray of snacks, she handed the tray to Phineas and the three of them dug into the snacks. After a minute Candace broke the silence by saying, “So where is Isabella, I would have expected her to be over here by this point in the day?” Phineas’s expression became visibly sadder when he heard the question.
“I don’t know, she doesn't come over every day anymore like she used to.” Phineas said without his usual enthusiastic tone of voice. Candace knew them well enough to know that Phineas being sad was definitely a big deal, as was Isabella not coming over every day to see him. She made a mental note to talk to Isabella, but for now she was going to enjoy the day with her brothers. Phineas had walked over to his drafting table and took a look at his blueprint, Candace and Ferb followed him over and when Candace saw the blueprint she asked,
“What's that Phineas?” Phineas looked at Candace and smiled, his usual excited self was back.
“It’s a tiny robot that can go inside your body and perform operations so that doctors don't have to do surgery to fix internal problems.”
“A tiny robot oooo Phineas you are soooo……...sweet for trying to help people like that.” Candace said imitating her younger self, Ferb gave a little chuckle and Phineas laughed.

“Thanks Candace.” he said and then went into a very complicated explanation about all the technical stuff involved in building it. Candace spent the rest of the afternoon talking and laughing with her brothers, they went to the mall and got ice cream, and Candace even stayed for dinner because she couldn't pass up the opportunity to eat mom’s tacos. Finally it was time for Candace to leave. Before heading back to her apartment, she stopped across the street at the Garcia-Shapiro’s house, she rang the doorbell but there was no response, she would just have to call Isabella tomorrow.

Chapter 7: Asking around 

For the next week Candace was very busy calling her friends, her brothers friends, her family, Irving, the giant floating baby head, and random delivery guys to get permission to use them in her TV show. When she called her mom all she had to say was,
“I'm glad you're at least doing something productive with your obsession over the boys.” but that was fine. Candace had long ago resigned herself to the fact that her mom would never believe her. She had called almost everyone she knew and besides her brothers there was only one person left, Vanessa Doofenshmirtz.
 It was Friday afternoon and Candace was headed to the coffee shop where Vanessa worked, she pushed open the glass door causing a little bell above the door to ring. It was a nice little shop. The walls were painted a light brown color except for one wall at the back which was painted with a bunch of swirly patterns. The metal tables and chairs were a dark green color and there was a short counter with a cash register and several machines for making coffee. Vanessa was standing behind the counter when Candace came in.
“Hey Candace have a seat, my break starts as soon as Mandy gets here” Candace walked over and sat at a small table in the corner while responding,
“Okay, can I get a caramel soy latte”
“Sure thing” Vanessa said and began making it. Candace didn't have long to wait as after only a minute of sitting there a girl who Candace recognized for some reason came in and went behind the counter, soon after that Vanessa walked up handing Candace her latte and sat down in the chair across from her
“Thanks” Candace said and took a sip of her latte
“No problem, now what did you want to talk to me about?” Vanessa asked, the curiosity evident in her voice.
“Remember how my brothers used to build all those cool things when we were kids?”
“Of course, who could forget bouncing to Paris on a rocket strapped to a giant rubber band ball?” Vanessa giggled at the memory.
“Well I was recently offered the opportunity to turn their adventures into a cartoon TV show, but I need permission from you to make you a character in the show.” Candace explained
“That's totally cool, I'm in.”
“Great, oh and there’s one other thing.” Candace asked tentatively
“What's that?”
“Well you mentioned that your dad was into evil science and I was wondering if he would mind if I used him as the villain in the TV show.”
“I’m sure he would love that, he’d be all crazy about being on real live TV, I can actually call him right now if you want, but don't be surprised if he wants you to pay him royalties or something.”
“That'd  be great, thanks.” Vanessa pulled out her phone and called her dad, Candace could faintly hear a jingle play through the speaker that said “Doofenshmirtz hmmm  incorporated” then Vanessa started talking
“Hi dad….yeah dad……...that's great but dad, I have a question…..my friend is starting a TV show and she wants to know if she can use you as the villain……..no it's a cartoon…….. Oookay dad….love you, bye.” she hung up the phone and and looked at Candace, who said,
“So what did he say?”
“he said it would be awesome and started coming up with some scheme take over the tri-state area using TV then he remembered that he wasn't evil anymore.”
“That's great, thanks so much Vanessa, I have to go now, Stacy and I are taking Ginger and Isabella out for like a sister spa day thing.”
“But Isabella isn't your sister.” Vanessa said looking confused.
“Yeah but I’ve seen her like every day for most of my life so she’s basically my little sister.”
“Oh I see.” Vanessa said. Candace stood up to leave then turned abruptly back to Vanessa and said,
“Oh I almost forgot, I haven't talked to my brothers about this yet so don't say anything to Ferb okay.”

“No problem.” Vanessa stated coolly over her shoulder as the walked back to the counter.

Chapter 6: Phone calls

The next evening Candace was sitting on the couch in her apartment watching TV with Stacy and winding down after a friends birthday party at Coltrane’s house. It had been a busy day and she only now had time to call Dan Povenmire. She pulled out the business card that he gave her. She took a deep breath, picked up her phone from the coffee table and dialed the number on the back of the card.The phone rang a few times before it was picked up and Candace heard someone say

 “Hello, this is Dan Povenmire”

“Hi Mr Povenmire this is Candace Flynn”

“Oh, hi Candace, I didn't expect you to get back to me so quickly” his voice sounded concerned, as if her calling him so soon meant that she wasn't going to take his offer

“Well, I talked to my fiancé and my best friend, and I've decided to accept  your offer”

Rreally? that's great!”

“So what's the first step, what do I have to do?”Candace asked. she really had no idea how this worked.

“Well the first thing you need to do is get permission from your brothers to turn them and their inventions into a TV show, and also get permission from anyone else you wrote about.”

“Okay, I'm on it. By the way, thank you so much. This is the biggest opportunity of my life.”

“No, thank you Candace I’m so glad I decided to come to your school. Oh and please, call me Dan”

“Alright Dan, thanks, I'll call you after I talk with my brothers”

“Ok, talk to you then, bye” Dan hung up and Candace sat in a slight daze with her phone still to her ear. When she finally put her phone down she noticed that Stacy had been watching her, Candace returned her curious gaze.

“So how did it go, what did he say” Stacy finally asked.

“He said I need to get permission from my brothers to turn them into a TV show I think i'll call them now actually.” Candace picked her phone back up off the table “Oh yeah I also need permission from you to use you in the show”

“Oh my gosh Candace yes! I’ll be famous! This is so exciting!” Stacy shouted while shaking Candace’s shoulders.

“Okay, okay I get it. You're excited” Candace laughed “Now can I please call my brothers?”

“Oh, yeah, sorry, I think I’ll just go make some cookie dough” Stacy released Candace who dialed Phineas's number and put the phone to her ear, it beeped a few times before she heard Phineas’s voice say,

“Hello, you have reached the phone of Phineas Flynn, if your hearing this I can't come to the phone right now, so leave me a message and I'll get back to you. Oh and if you're calling about the chameleon and the peanut butter it was Ferb's fault.” There was a long beep then Candace said,

“Hey Phineas it’s Candace, call me back” she hung up and immediately dialed Ferb’s number, after a few beeps it was picked up and she heard Ferb’s low, British voice say.

“Hello?” 

“Hey Ferb it’s Candace”

“Oh hello Candace what's up?”

“Well there's something I want to talk to you and Phineas about” she was trying hard to contain the excitement in her voice.

“Why? Is something wrong?” She thought it was strange to hear Ferb talk so much, but then again it would be hard to have a phone conversation without talking

“No, no, everythings fine, but I’d rather talk about it in person”

“Umm, you know Phin and I are in Switzerland for the award ceremony right?”

“Oh that’s right, sorry I completely forgot, it's been kind of  a busy week for me”

“Don't worry about it, we will be home next week though, why don't you come over that Saturday?”

“That sounds great! thanks Ferb. Oh and one other thing, when I called Phineas his answering machine said something about a chameleon and peanut butter and that it was your fault, what's that about?” Candace smiled when she heard Ferb’s deep throaty chuckle in response, she so rarely heard him laugh that it always made her smile.

“It’s a long story, i’ll tell you some other time, but right now phineas is about to test a machine he just built and I should probably make sure it isn’t going to explode as soon as he turns it on” now Candace was surprised, that was a lot of words for ferb, even over the phone”

“Okay Ferb, love you, I’ll see you next week”

“ Love you too, bye” with that Ferb hung up leaving Candace to sit and think about how proud she is of her little brothers who are at an award ceremony in Switzerland at the age of only sixteen. She was pulled out of her thoughts by a loud crash, she turned abruptly to see Stacy in the kitchen surrounded by pieces of a ceramic mixing bowl. Candace rushed into the kitchen to help her clean up the mess, than they got a new bowl and made a fresh batch of cookie dough together.
