Hey guys! Sorry for the long wait, but I've just been busy lately, playing with the stuff I got for Christmas and getting ready to go back to school and all. I also went back through the last book and fixed up some errors, so it's better now. I do not own Phineas and Ferb, all rights to products go to their respective owners. Here is the long-awaited sequel to The Agents from Down Under, The Agents in Europe. I hope you guys enjoy :D
Prologue
Oars moved in the waters at a steady pace. It wasn't easy to move with the ice on the water. It was December 12th, four months after Penelope had called off the hunt for the Enigma. The Enigma, the Silver Viper, and a few other choice animal agents in OMEGA were in the boat. They had secretly been moving in the waters much faster than ALPHA had anticipated. They were rowing for the shores of Ireland, the large sailboat (with secret rotors underneath that got them there faster than ALPHA would have predicted) was in the distance.
The Enigma took a deep breath of the cold winter air. "Ireland, a little island part of Great Britain. If we get Britain, the rest of Europe will follow soon after. How soon can my creation be released?" he asked, turning away from looking at the distance to looking at the Silver Viper.
"Most probably not soon enough, your creation is still suffering from the pain of its body," said the Silver Viper.
"Pain is for women! My creation will move soon enough," said the Enigma, turning back to the distance.
"Sir, your creation prefers to stay in its home."
"Does it now? Does it not remember who created it? Who put everything he had into it? What is the hold-up? What is the question?"
"It refuses to move until it is given proper incentive."
"I will give it proper incentive. I want my army moving ahead. I want all of Britain to be mine by sunset. Do you all understand me?" He turned around and put his hands behind his back.
"Sir, yes, sir!" they replied.
"I didn't hear you. Are we going to take Britain by sunset?" asked the Enigma, louder.
"Sir, yes, sir!" they replied louder.
"Then do it! I will move ahead and see if I can give my creation the incentive to move. I am not a timid scientist, I expect results. Silver Viper, meet me in Madrid, Spain, in two days. I should have everything in place by then. Do you understand me?"
"Sir, yes, sir!" she replied.
"Very well, then... oh, by the way, on the very small chance that we do fail, I will personally give you all tickets to the Cavern of Eternal Suffering below. Do you all understand me?"
"Sir, yes, sir!" they replied. They began rowing faster and soon hit shore. The Enigma remained in the boat. He had another island in mind to sail toward. Once his creation was in the proper mood, there would be nothing to get in its way. The Enigma laughed to himself as he rowed back to the ship. If he didn't own the world by the end of the year, it would certainly be a cold day in the Cavern of Eternal Suffering in his mind.
Meanwhile, back in America, Protocol P-1 was lifted. The O.W.C.A. heads still had not been found, but since the Enigma had been away for so long and the holidays were coming soon, everyone deserved at least a semblance of normalcy. Rosalynn and Max, Penelope and Perry's children, had turned four months old. They ran around the Flynn-Fletcher house, playing. Penelope was snuggling with Perry in a chair beside the couch. On the couch, the Flynn-Fletcher family was enjoying their first day back together.
"It's so good to have everything back to normal," said Lawrence, the dad.
"Well, almost normal. Perry, Penelope, Rosalynn, and Max are far from normal," said Candace. Rosalynn and Max had made their fifth lap into the living room and Max tripped on the carpet and Rosalynn, being so close to him, fell behind him.
Penelope giggled. She had on her translator, so her words came out in English. "You didn't notice the carpet there did you?" she asked, sarcastically. She picked up Max and he chattered and shook his head. "It came right out of nowhere, didn't it?" Max chattered and nodded. She threw him into the air and caught him. Max chattered happily. Penelope got on the floor and tickled Rosalynn in the ribs. Rosalynn squirmed and chattered, laughing. She then began tickling Max as well. Perry joined his family on the floor, but Penelope hadn't noticed him, she was too caught up in tickling her two little ones. Perry edged closer and was soon right behind Penelope. He then put his fingers right into Penelope's ribs. Penelope fell, surprised, and began giggling and squirming. "Perry, stop! You know I'm the most ticklish in my ribs!"
"That's what makes it fun," said Perry, his voice coming out in English because of a translator that Penelope had given to him as an early Christmas present.
"Perry," she said, knowing she had lost the battle. To make matters worse, her own children had joined Perry in tickling her. The Flynn-Fletchers watched, amused at the cute family moment the platypuses were having.
"Give in! You will give in!" said Perry.
Penelope stopped squirming and laughing and looked at him with a shocked expression. Perry stopped tickling her and they both sat there on the floor. The little ones sat as well, they weren't very old, but they knew when something was wrong. "What did you say, Perry?"
"I said, 'Give in! You will give in!' " he said it in a skittish tone, worried of the implications on his wife's mind that would come from this one statement.
Penelope grabbed her head, a headache was coming, which meant a vision was going to happen. She left the room quickly, running into walls now and then on her way to the bathroom. Of all days to have a vision, today had to be one of those days, Penelope thought.
Ever since Peter the Panda had injected her with the Yin-Yang serum at her birthday party, her good side and her bad side had become separated and she had gained a higher sense of awareness. This higher sense of awareness gave her the ability to go through all the possibilities in a problem... and to see the future. Usually, she would have these visions in her sleep, but when she was awake, she always headed for the bathroom and got in the tub, which was where she was now.
Penelope curled into a ball, she just wanted it to come and not cause her pain anymore. Then, the brunt of the attack came. Her body lurched and her eyes turned white and glowed in a bright hue. She screamed in pain and shook violently. Perry had since come into the bathroom and locked the door behind him. He had to wait out another attack. He came close, but he didn't come too close. The last time he had tried to hold her down during an attack, he received a black eye. So, favoring his eyesight, he waited at the edge of the tub. He could do nothing but watch.
"Glowing white means a future vision, but if her eyes turn black during the attack, it means someone will die," Perry muttered to himself. As he said this, her eyes did turn black, black as deep space. She got on her back and began gagging, her mouth filling with blood. She gave one final lurch, her back arching, before she relaxed onto her back. Her eyes closed. The attack was over. "Pen? Penelope? Are you all right?" Penelope lay still for a few moments before opening her eyes, the black from her vision shrinking into her pupils. She took a deep breath and gagged.
"I bled this time... Oh, Perry," she hugged him from over the tub. She began crying softly.
Perry did what he always did after she had an attack, he held her and swayed back and forth, all the while telling her, "It's going to be all right, Penelope. It's over now."
"No, it's just beginning. The Enigma's forces have landed in Ireland and they will have Great Britain by sunset today. I also saw... the creature. That horrible, revolting, sad creature... with eyes of flame... and sadness."
"Is that all you saw? Who dies, Penelope?"
"Perry..." she couldn't bring herself to say it, but she knew she had to. "...You do."
Welcome back, guys. I hope you liked this intro. In case it wasn't obvious, when the Enigma said "Cavern of Eternal Suffering," he meant hell. So, do you guys have any theories about what the Enigma's creature is? Let me know! Please keep reading and reviewing, thanks, guys :)
