Ch. 3: The acceptance.
The flight seemed rather long as they were soaring through the skies. Not a word has escaped either one of their bills, one reason was that one of them couldn't speak in human language so there was no need to exchange words. Heinz was thinking of a way to explain all of this to Perry without getting hurt in the process, for all he knew Perry might have thought that this was all a trap and he was being taken to the OWCA for interrogation. Thoughts raced through Heinz' head of what's going to happen, and where is he being taken, could Perry trust him, what was his evil self planning?
Heinz' thoughts were interrupted when Perry slowed down as they neared a beige house with a brown roof.
Perry turned horizontally and was now hovering above a chimney. Heinz looked down at the dark chimney, then he turned his gaze to Perry who had a look of all seriousness on his face.
"Perry? What are yo- AHHHHH!" Heinz' sentence was cut off as Perry let go of him and he started to fall down the chimney screaming all the way down. He closed his eyes and prepared for impact. He landed, although not on something hard, the impact was much more softer than he expected. He opened his eyes and saw that he landed on a chair, he began to look around at his surroundings. Everything seemed all too familiar to him, he had been in this grand lair before. The sight of machinery and gadgets and different vehicles was comforting to him, he didn't know why this place felt right so him.
He suddenly looked up at the light green, transparent tube above him as he heard the noise of a jetpack coming from it.
Perry flew out of the tube with ease, floating for a few seconds he slowly lowers himself to the white tile below. He turns off his jetpack and throws it off his back, not being bothered to put it back in its' place. He was more concerned about the other platypus sitting in his chair. He crossed his skinny arms, narrowing his eyes slightly with a fixed expression on his bill. Heinz knew he was waiting for an explanation.
Heinz started to think something up, he assumed he'd start from the beginning "After you left my apartment for the first time today the duplicatinator as well as the platypusinator exploded. The explosion of the platypusinator kept me a platypus, while the explosion from the duplicatinator turned the Heinz Doofenshmirtz you know into two beings, but it separated us in a way where one is good and the other evil. You heard the expression 'everyone has some good in them'?" Asked Heinz.
Perry nodded, still with the same expression on his face.
"Well that's just it, I am that good side within the Heinz you knew and cared about because of me. I am the one who loved hanging around you, I am the one that cared for my family, I am the one that shared my life with you and poured my heart out to you with all those backstories from my miserable childhood. Do you believe me, Perry?" Heinz asked.
Perry didn't make a sound, he simply walked over to a wall and pushed a button. A compartment in the wall slid out, revealing a bulky, dark purple helmet with what looked like light bulbs sticking out of it. Perry grabbed the helmet and brought it over to Heinz, he pointed at a label that was on it.
"The lie detector helmet." Heinz said as he read the label. He glanced over to Perry "You want me to take a lie detector test?" He asked.
Perry nodded and put the helmet on Heinz' head.
Heinz thought of what to say, he started speaking. "I am not evil, I wish to help you take down my evil self and any other evils you may encounter. You are my best friend, I always cared about you, Perry."
The light bulbs on the helmet lit up bright. Perry smiled for the second time today, the first time was when they had a tea party earlier this morning.
Perry took the helmet off of Heinz.
"So, you trust me, right Perry?" Heinz asked, a bit nervous.
Perry nodded, still smiling.
Heinz sat back in the chair and sighed heavily with relief. "So now what? Can I join the OWCA?" Heinz asked Perry, sitting up in the chair.
Perry held up his wrist and pushed a button on his watch. Major Monogram appeared on the tiny screen on the watch "Yes? Something to report, Agent P?"
Perry pointed the watch in Heinz' direction.
"Great googley moogley! Another platypus!?" Said the Major.
"Yes, Francis. But it's me, Heinz." Heinz replied.
"You've got quite a nerve showing your face here after what you did!" Said Monogram.
"Look, please Francis, allow me to explain." Heinz pleaded.
"You've got 5 minutes..." Monogram stated.
Heinz explained all that had happen today in great detail.
