The outdoors were chilly. Even with the sun out and about the wind managed to take away the little heat given. Not decent weather to be wondering outside or sunbathing under the sun.
Perry curled himself further into his pet bed. Just looking out the glass doors made Perry shiver slightly under his fur. There were signs of early snow falling lightly on the ground and from the look of it the neighborhood is expecting one or two inches deep of it later in the day.
Perry started to doze off but before he could accomplish his wrist communicated started to ring. With a grumble and sigh Perry got up and started heading towards one of the secret entrances. Once he sat on his chair Major Monogram showed his face on the screen and began the daily routine.
"Good morning Agent P, sorry for disturbing you but as always its Doofenshmirtz. It seems that he has been looking up information on platypuses, um platipi? Or, you know what I mean! And instead of ordering parts online actually went out and bought them in person. Seems this is really important for him to do this. Also, as of last night there has been no activity whatsoever so we can safely assume something has happened to him. We need you to go and check it out and make sure he hasn't hurt himself with his invention. Good luck."
Perry lazily saluted the Major as the screen turned blank and walked over to his transportation of the morning. Its days like this when Perry really detested the Dr. and wished he would disappear for a couple of days or at least a week. Today is the perfect weather to stay indoors and drink hot cocoa or lazy around watching TV, but it seems to the Dr. it's perfect weather to ruin a platypuses evening and make him work through the cold.
The platypus could not stop his teeth from chattering together as he braved through closer and closer towards the building once it was on sight. When he got close to a jumping distance Perry leaped from his hover car and broke through the window, landing on a fighting stance. When nothing happened he waddled slowly looking at all possible locations for the Dr. and any traps that were sure to be waiting for him.
Seconds passed and still nothing was happening. Perry turned back to see he had gained a fair amount of distance from the entrance he made. Now he was worried.
Quickly, Perry started to run everywhere. Turning left and right, looking around every corner behind any small possible space. Nothing.
There's panic in his eyes. Where is Doofenshmirtz?
The platypus ran again. With his vision blocked from all possibilities that something really bad happened to Doof, Perry didn't see an outfit innocently laying in his way and tripped on top of it.
Perry shot up as soon as he saw the familiar white in a dull colored room. He grabbed the lab coat and looked it over for any signs of blood or cuts to clarify injuries. He relaxed slightly when the attire didn't show anything out of the ordinary. Just a regular ironed outfit laying on the evil lairs floor but the question is, why was it laying at all?
Folding the lab coat under his arm Perry ran towards the living room and kitchen of the Dr.'s apartment. Maybe Doofenshmirtz decided today was a good day to just sit down and drink coffee and somehow it involved him forgetting one of his outfits in the lair?
That idea was shot out of the window as soon as Perry finished looking over. He looked around for something, anything to tell him or give him a hint of what Doofenshmirtz was doing or where he is.
A familiar stomping was heard from a distance. As it got closer Perry lit up.
Norm! He should know something of what happened to Doof!
Perry ran towards the room which held the stomping noise and once he entered Norm is seen clear as day.
Chattering to get the machines attention Norm turned to the noise and saw the platypus.
"HI PERRY THE PLATYPUS! WOULD YOU LIKE TO HAVE COFEE?"
Perry shook his head and raised the lab coat from under his arm. He lifted it up to show the robot and tried his best to ask where Doofenshmirtz was with hand motions.
"DAD? HE HAS BEEN MISSING SINCE LAST NIGHT! I HAVE TRIED LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR HIM BUT HE VANISHED! I NEED TO FIND HIM! IT'S MUFFIN TIME AND HE IS LATE!"
With that said Norm started to stomp out of the room and headed towards the kitchen, but all Perry did was stand there and replay what the robot had said.
Doofenshmirtz is missing? Gone?
Perry shook his head and ran back to his hover car. There is no way Doof can just vanish like that, he had to be somewhere! Once he managed to locate and get on the hover car Perry flew away. He didn't know where he was going or even where to start the search but he had to do something!
And so, this is how Perry spent the rest of his day. Flying around, avoiding sight and looking at every corner of the cities perimeter with only a lone lab coat to keep encouraging him to continue the search.
