Part 2
"No!" Phineas said. "No, I won't do it. I won't give up Perry!"
"We have to Phineas." Linda told him. "It's either that or they'll separate us."
"But isn't there another way?" Linda shook her head sadly.
"I'm afraid not sweetheart." Phineas looked at his sister and stepbrother who had tears in their eyes. He looked back at his mom with tears in his own eyes.
"Do we really have to?"
"Yes sweetheart. We do." He then let his mom embrace him as he cried. Linda smoothed her son's hair. Lawrence did the same to Ferb and Candace. Candace even shut off her phone and put it in her pocket. The two parents paid attention to the mayor again. So did all the other parents after comforting their own crying children.
"Yes, I hate to have to do this." Roger exclaimed. "But as mayor, it is my job to make this city safe, so I must. I'm really sorry to all of you who must now go home and get rid of your pet. Someone will come tomorrow and take your pet to a refuge in Australia. I hope you don't think badly of me; I'm only doing what's best. I hope you understand. Thanks for your cooperation." He left the podium and went behind the curtain. Everybody got up and began leaving.
"Come on sweetie." Linda told her son. "Let's go home and spend our last day with Perry." Phineas sniffed.
"Okay mom." He agreed, sadly. The Flynn-Fletchers headed for their car.
"YES!" Rodney cheered. "I've done it!" He looked at Doctor D. "See Heinz? See what a very good evil plan does for you? I say we celebrate with all of LOVEMUFFIN. Ugh! I can't believe I said our stupid team name again. Well, it'll be tomorrow at noon in the park."
The moment they arrived home, Phineas raced towards his pet who was outside to greet them home and hugged him, crying. Perry was confused, what was going on? Why was his owner hugging him like this?
"Oh Perry!" His owner sobbed. "Mayor Doofenshmirtz passed a new law, saying that all platypus ownership is illegal; we have to let you go!" Perry's eyes widened. What? He looked at his owner whose tears were getting in his fur.
"Kids," Linda began. "You can invite your friends so they can say farewell to Perry.
"Okay Mom." Phineas agreed. He and Ferb went to call their friends. Candace called her friends to tell them the news. They were all devastated. Stacy understood why Candace didn't text her back and said she didn't think she would've been in the texting mood ether if she were in a similar situation. Candace and Jeremy still went on their date.
Phineas, Ferb and their friends went to the park with Perry.
"So, is this really Perry's last day?" Isabella asked. Phineas nodded.
"Fraid so." He told her. "The mayor is sending somebody to take Perry to a ref…"
"I know, Phineas. I saw the broadcast of the town meeting on channel five with my mom and Pinky." She looked at Perry. "I just can't believe it. Didn't you guys have him for like five years?"
"Yes." Phineas stroked his pet. "Yes we did."
They spent nearly the whole day at the park. They played fetch, had a picnic lunch, went for a walk, and played with him on the playground.
Back at the house, they had dinner and played some more with Perry until their friends had to go home. Candace was still not home.
"Well Perry." Isabella said to the platypus. "You be good now. We'll miss you."
"This will be a sad page to write in my Phineas and Ferb scrapbook." Irving observed, tears in his eyes. Buford eyed him
"Do you have a page on everything that Dinnerbell and his stepbrother does?" He wanted to know. Irving nodded, sniffing. "That's just creepy!"
"You know," Baljeet stated. "Perry won't be gone forever. You'll always have him in your hearts."
"That we will." Phineas agreed, patting the platypus. "That we will."
"So true." Ferb added. "So true."
After their breakfast the next morning, the whole Flynn-Fletchers had their picture taken with Perry in the backyard in front of the tree. They went into the house and the doorbell.
"That must be for Perry." Lawrence said. "I'll get it." He went to the door and answered it. A man came in with a pet carrier.
"I'm here for the platypus." The man said. Phineas went towards the man, Perry in his hands. He placed Perry down. Tears welled in his eyes as he petted him.
"Well Perry, you were the best pet a boy could ever ask for." He hugged him. "We're going to miss you." Candace and Ferb hugged the monotreme as well.
"Well I'm sorry I have to do this." The man said. "But I have too."
"We know." Phineas told him. "You'll take care of him, won't you?"
"Don't you worry. The refuge people will take good care of him."
"Go Perry." Phineas told his pet. Perry strolled up to the cage door. He then looked back at his family with a hopeful expression, begging to stay and for the awful man to go away.
"Go Perry." Phineas repeated. Perry sighed and went the rest of the way in.
Once in, the man shut the cage door and picked it up. Perry looked at his family from within the cage. Phineas went to the cage.
"Be good Perry and take care." The man began to leave. Perry looked at his family as they disappeared from the doorway.
The man then went to the back of the truck and placed Perry's cage in with the others. After he closed it and left; Perry looked at the other cages with platypuses in them. He was surprised. He never knew that so many people in Danville had pet platypuses.
The platypus laid down in his cage. He had tears in his eyes.
They drove and drove. It wasn't until they were on the highway when the ride got a little bumpy. Perry awoke to his cage bouncing up and down. He looked out. All of the other cages were bouncing as well.
Suddenly, a big bump in the road caused Perry's cage to jump so hard that it fell off the truck!
When the cage landed on the ground, the cage broke open. The platypus clambered out. He looked around to make sure that the coast was clear. When it was; he wasted no time. He ran to OWCA headquarters. He couldn't go back to the Flynn-Fletchers. He'd just get them in trouble. Maybe the Major can clear this mess up.
When he got there, he went though the revolving doors. He stood on his hind legs and put on his fedora. He then heard crying and sad animal sounds. He looked up. There was his boss, Carl and his fellow agents, all with tears in their eyes, even Wanda Acronym and all of her agents were there. They were all holding back tears. Perry then noticed there was a banner. He looked at it. 'Farewell Agent P' it read. He couldn't believe his eyes. What?! He was leaving here too? There was also a slice of chocolate cake on a nearby stool.
"Oh, Agent P!" Monogram cried, running over and hugging the semi-aquatic mammal. "I was just about to call you." He looked at him. "Your family gave you up because of the new law?" The platypus nodded sadly. "I'm so sorry! You must be heartbroken!" He hugged the animal agent again.
"Sir?" Carl spoke up through his tears. "Shouldn't we tell him?" Monogram looked at him and stood up.
"Oh yes. Yes we should." He looked at the agent platypus. "Agent P. I'm sorry to have to tell you this but…we have to let you go." Tears started forming in Perry's eyes. What, why?
"I'm sorry but Rodney from LOVEMUFFIN told me that Roger Doofenshmirtz has not only outlawed platypus ownership but also banned them from working as secret agents." Perry's eyes widened. What? Roger knows about him working here? How does he even know about the organization? He then gave his boss a look. You trust Rodney?
"You must be thinking 'why am I even trusting Rodney?' 'You shouldn't be trusting him; he's evil.'" His boss said as if he read the platypus's mind. "Well, that's what I wondered at first, but…" He held up a document stating the new law. "Read the bottom part, Agent P." The platypus read the bottom.
"And in addition to banning platypus ownership in all of Danville, they are also banned from government organizations, such as the OWCA, and private employment.' It read. His face saddened as he saw the mayor's signature. His boss took the sheet away.
"I don't know how the mayor even found our organization but he did. He gave Perry the plate of cake. "Well, this is for you." Perry grabbed the cake. He didn't feel like eating. He was too sad. Pinky went over to comfort the sad monotreme. The dog whimpered through all of his uncontrollable shaking.
"Eat, Agent P." Monogram told him. "That's your last order." Perry gave a small smile but frowned again as soon as he took a bite of cake. He ate it slowly; not wanting to believe this was coming true.
"Well Agent P," Monogram said to him when they were all outside of the OWCA. Perry had already given him his spy badge and watch along with his other spy equipment. He kept his hat for Doofenshmirtz later. "Although it's hard to say goodbye, I must. You were a splendid agent all of these years. We're really going to miss you." He then bent down and hugged him. Perry hugged him back. "Take care!"
"Does he really have to leave, sir?" Carl asked through his tears. "Maybe we can persuade Roger Doofenshmirtz to reconsider." Monogram looked at him and shook his head sadly.
"I'm sorry Carl, but there's nothing we can do."
"But…but what if Doofenshmirtz makes a persuadeinator to change his brother's mind?"
"Carl please, don't make this any harder then it already is. Besides, Agent P will always be in our memories. That's something Roger can't outlaw."
"That's very true, sir. Goodbyes always have to be so hard." Monogram stood up. He watched as Perry's animal friends were hugging the platypus goodbye.
"Yes they are, Carl. Yes they are. Well, Agent P, one last salute to send you off." Everybody saluted to Perry. Perry did the exact same thing.
Perry then left as he heard sad goodbyes and animal sounds from behind him.
Perry went to DEI to say goodbye to Doofenshmirtz. He went in the elevator and pressed the top floor.
He knocked on his door. The doctor opened it.
"Perry the Platypus?" He asked. "What are you doing here? I'm about to go to a LOVEMUFFIN party in celebration of getting rid of you." The platypus ran and hugged the doctor. Then he tearfully waved goodbye.
"Wait, Perry the Platypus." The doctor spoke. "Before you go, can you break my door again, so I have something to remember you by? Try to make a gaping hole in the shape of yourself breaking in? Can you do that? Please?" Perry nodded and rammed into the door, making a huge gaping hole in the shape of him breaking in. He then waved at the doctor, tears still in his eyes and ran for the elevator.
"CURSE YOU, PERRY THE PLATYPUS!" Doofenshmirtz cursed, through the opening. He then looked at the hole. Tears formed in his eyes. "Curse you!" He then lost his tears and looked determined.
"Norm," He began. "I know what I'm going to do today! I'm going to get my nemesis back whether Rodney likes it or not!"
