Well, I bet you're surprised to see an update on this! Sorry I took so long, but I had a bit of writer's block, wondering just what to do with this story... and I think I finally figured out the plots of each one. Unfortunately, the Perry/Doofenshmirtz subplot, while there will be bits and pieces in the background, it won't be as prominent, so sad to say, there won't be much focus for you Perry and Doofenshmirtz fans. Sorry. On the other hand, the other plot ideas I have in mind are a little better than what I have in mind! So, let's get this going!
It wasn't until about an hour or so later that a certain car had arrived at the boardwalk and one of the passengers of the car jumped out an open window in excitement and gave a "V for Victory" sign as he gave a chuckle.
"Stitch, you big ham!" Lilo laughed as she got out of the car the normal way. "You know we can't draw any attention to ourselves!"
"Ih, I know." Stitch shrugged as Nani came out of the car and stretched her legs just a bit.
"Well, it was difficult, but I think it's safe to say that I think you two will be fine on your own." Nani gave a smile.
"Well, that goes without saying." Lilo said nonchalantly.
"Okay, I have to meet up with David on the beach and I'll be with him most of the day. If something happens, call me. Meet me back here around three o'clock, don't be late. And don't cause any trouble and force me to come back here early." Nani said the last part with a deadpan look on her face.
Stitch could only flash an innocent smile as Lilo rolled her eyes. "I promise we'll be careful. Stitch will be on his best behavior the whole time!"
"Yeah, and that's what scares me." Nani groaned as she started to go off on her own.
As soon as both the little girl and the alien dressed as a boy paused, Lilo scoffed a little. "Sometimes, I wonder about Nani... she seriously needs to kick back just a little."
"Nani great... but always..." Stitch said before shaking and growled a little.
Lilo laughed a bit. "Oh, give her a break, Stitch. You know very well that me and her rely on each other and that she's been taking care of me since... you know..."
Stitch, hearing the sad tone in Lilo's voice, looked worried as he spotted something. "Ooooh! Lilo, look!"
Lilo turned and squinted her eyes, her sadness being forgotten as Stitch pointed to something in interest. "Is that a tea cup ride in the boardwalk... there are people working on it, it looks like."
Stitch immediately started to run off as Lilo groaned. "Stitch, wait!"
Not too far from the boardwalk, Nani was searching the streets for David as she looked around the streets, in concern. "Is it me, or does this place seem a little... different...?"
As Nani looked around to see a few empty spots in a few places, she started to feel a little bit... unnerved. Normally, this city would be bustled in busy city life, but for some reason, it was just... empty.
"There was supposed to be a tiki hut here, wasn't there?" Nani said nervously. "And... there was always a hotel over there... wasn't there?"
The black haired woman looked a little nervous as she looked around, suspiciously. "Something strange is going on around here... then again, what isn't going on in this state?"
Nani paused as she put a hand to her face, pondering and pondering to herself as she sat down on the floor... her eyes widened as she snapped her fingers. "What if another experiment is on the loose, shrinking things? Maybe I better call Lilo and let her know there's an experiment nearby... I'm sure they'll drop what they're doing to go get it..."
As Nani was about to reach for her phone, she spotted something particularly strange near her foot. She looked down and noticed a small flip phone near her feet. Raising an eyebrow, she bent down and picked it up, examining the pink device. "What's this doing all the way out here?"
As Nani examined the device, she paused in worry. "What if whatever creature this is shrunk the people too! I better call fast!" Nani said as she grabbed her cell phone and was about to place a call... when she suddenly noticed the small creature that was circling around her. Nani's eyes narrowed. "I knew it! You are one of Jumba's experiments! I am definitely callin-"
But before Nani could go any further than what she was about to say, she suddenly felt a little funny as the creature kept circling around her. Nani felt a little light-headed and dizzy as she dropped both cell phones to the ground. Nani groaned as she held her head as she bent down.
"Oh... oh, what is... ugh..." Nani groaned as she found herself... turning smaller and smaller. "Wh-what's happening to me?"
Nani clutched on to herself as she kept shrinking and shrinking... until she became the size of a tiny ant. Right around then, the dizziness she felt went away as Nani recovered.
"What... just happened?" The black haired Hawaiian woman groaned, holding her head as she was slowly beginning to take in her surroundings as confusion was soon replaced with fear. "Have... I... I shrunk?"
Nani gasped in horror as she noticed her large phone was on the bench. "Oh, no, no, no, no!"
Nani then noticed the small creature, the creature that was now her size, looking over. Nani gave a growl as she jumped on the surprised experiment, freaking it out a little. "WHY YOU LITTLE BUG! LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO ME!"
The experiment freaked out a little bit as it flew off into the distance. Nani, calming down, gasped as she called out, "No, wait, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to-"
Nani groaned as she held her head in annoyance. "Oh, great. What do I do now?"
"Nani? Anybody?"
Nani's eyes lit up as she looked up to see the boy she was going out with, David, had entered the area, looking confused. "David! David, I'm down here!"
But David didn't notice anything as he was still looking around... and even if he did hear Nani's voice, it would have been nothing but a slight breeze in his ear.
"Nani?" David looked a little worried. "This is strange. I thought she said we were going to meet here... but there doesn't seem to be anything here. Maybe I misplaced the street?"
"David! Look down! Look down for just two seconds!" Nani called out, but it was pretty hopeless at this point.
"Maybe she's still at home?" David said as he started to walk off, much to Nani's horror.
"No! My phone! Look, my phone is right there! Just look!" Nani called out, but David had already walked off, making the woman groan. "Great... I can't call Lilo or Stitch for help, I don't know where the creature that shrunk me is... how could this day get any worse?"
It was then she became aware of a shadow that had fallen upon her. Nani slowly turned around as she noticed a few ants her size looking at her in interest. Nani growled. "I just had to ask! Shoo! Shoo! Go away!"
But the ants only came closer as one of them grabbed Nani and held her tight.
"LET ME GO, YOU LITTLE PESTS! LET ME GO!" Nani yelled as she started to get dragged off, wondering just where these ants were being dragged off to.
Meanwhile, on the boardwalk, Phineas and Ferb were busy collecting parts for the tea cup ride as Ferb had just finished up with the third tea cup. Phineas checked it over and smiled, "Great job, Ferb! Only three more cups and we'll be in business!"
It was at that moment when Lilo and Stitch came onto the scene as Lilo raised an eyebrow. "You're right, Stitch! There IS a teacup ride... but it seems to be under construction by... two... kids?"
"Eh?" Stitch said in confusion as Lilo raised an eyebrow. Both of them approached the boys as Lilo coughed.
"Excuse me, but... what'ya doin'?" Lilo asked Phineas.
Phineas turned and smiled, "Oh, hi! You know, I have a friend who always says that to me to... what'ya doin'? You probably shouldn't say it around her... apparently, she's the only one who's allowed to say that."
"Oh? Well, if you see your friend, tell her I said it and that I'm sorry for saying it." Lilo said. "But anyway, what are you guys doing?"
"Oh, my stepbrother and I are building up a tea cup ride for the boardwalk!" Phineas explained as he gave a smile. "We're hoping it'll be a nice success, give or take!"
Stitch just looked confused as Lilo raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you two a little young to be constructing a ride on your own."
"Well, yes. Yes we are." Phineas said in a blunt voice.
Stitch gave a chuckle as Lilo shrugged, "Well, at least you're honest about it. That's all right. My... brother and I know a few things about mechanics ourselves."
"Really?" Phineas raised an eyebrow as Stitch pumped himself up. "What can you guys do?"
"Well... not much, but Stitch here can lift three thousand times his own weight, and he can think faster than a supercomputer." Lilo explained as Stitch posed. "He's very good at fixing things... as much as he's good at destroying them."
Stitch looked at Lilo in surprise, before frowning... then shrugged, knowing that Lilo was probably right in that department.
"Oh, sweet! We were going to call some handymen to help lift the top, but if your friend is as good as they say, that'll save us at least an hour of time! Hey Ferb, you hear that? We won't need to call those handymen after all!" Phineas called over.
Ferb looked over as he gave a thumbs-up. Phineas smiled as he offered his hand to Lilo. "Anyway, I'm Phineas Flynn, and this is my brother, Ferb. Well, step-brother, but I like to call him my brother."
Lilo smiled, shaking hands with the boy. "I'm Lilo Pelekai. This is my... brother, Stitch. You could say he's... adopted, in a way."
"Cool!" Phineas smiled. "We can use all the help we can get! Thanks!"
"No problem." Lilo said as Stitch helped get to work. "You two don't seem to be from around here, are you?"
"Well, no. We're just on vacation with my family, they went to do their own things." Phineas explained as he handed Lilo a helmet, as she put it on. "What about you?"
"Oh, I live here with my brother and sister... and a couple of uncles... though it's... kind of specific." Lilo smiled. "I could tell you a lot of stories about the times me and my brother tried to help find his cousins..."
Phineas blinked as he smiled, "Well, we're from Danville, and while it's not much of a city, I like to call it home."
"Danville?" Lilo asked in surprise. "Isn't that the city with people that have Murphy's Law?"
"Murphy's Law?" Phineas raised an eyebrow. "Don't know if I heard about that, but I don't think we live in THAT part of town."
"Oh!" Lilo said in interest.
"Ferb and I are just regular kids that go to school..." Phineas said.
"Yet you're geniuses building a carnival ride." Lilo pointed out.
"Well, that's just one of the things we do during the summer." Phineas said.
Lilo's eyes widened in surprise. "You build carnival rides in the summer?"
"Ferb and I make it every day on summer vacation to try something new and inspired, not just carnival rides, but going out on adventures... sure, we'll make rollercoasters, but we can also make a combination of summer and winter, create a circus, create a mini-golf course, do chariot races, go back in time... you name it, we may have already done it. After all, there's only a hundred and four days of summer vacation." Phineas explained.
"Wow... the possibilities are endless with you two, huh?" Lilo said.
"Yeah, sometimes we may have gotten formulaic, but that's okay. Occasionally, we try to mix it up a little." Phineas said.
"Yeah, compared to your lives, ours are pretty much mundane..." Lilo laughed. "I mean, we occasionally find my brother's many cousins and help give them a purpose, all while trying to evade some authority, and occasionally, we go into a crossover with some other people from another part of the world."
"And what's wrong with that?" Phineas asked as Stitch had pasted the top. "I think it's pretty great that you're helping out the world in your own way."
Lilo paused... as she gave a smile. "I suppose you have a great point..."
Phineas gave a smile as well as he looked up at the sun. "And right now, I'm looking forward to this day and wonder what unpredictability it could bring."
Lilo gave a grin. "Heh, so do I..."
Meanwhile, in another part of the area, Gantu was walking around the city and looking around carefully. "Hmph... that experiment cannot be that far behind... I just need to find him and Hamsterviel will probably be happy with me... or mad at me, depends on the mood..."
Gantu growled to himself as he kept going. "I better get going and fast..."
Gantu then walked off, passing by a tiny ant hill as something seemed to be going on inside...
"Ugh, this is ridiculous!" Nani groaned as she struggled against the ants' arms as she looked around at the inside of the ant hill. Nani looked pretty surprised to see a well-organized civilization from within as ants seem to be talking pretty well with each other.
"I didn't think ants were organized beings!" Nani said in surprise as she noticed a few shrunk humans groaning as they were lifting up some food for the ants. Nani looked a little worried as she looked down at the ants carrying her. Further and further they went along, and further and further was Nani away from home. She shook in fear, wondering if Lilo or Stitch would notice she was gone... she frowned in determination. She knew that they would notice her disappearance and they're probably on their way right now to rescue her.
It was then Nani snapped out of her thoughts and looked nervous as she seemed to be entering a castle, heading downstairs to what seems like a dungeon. Nani looked nervous as the ants came down and opened the cell door.
"YOU LET ME OUT OF HERE, THIS INSTANT! YOU CREEPY CRAWLIES ARE SO GOING TO GET IT!"
Another shrill voice was heard from within the room as Nani found herself being thrown in, with her bumping into the person and sending her down with the figure. Nani recovered as she looked to see a glaring orange haired girl in a red blouse and white skirt screaming angrily at the ants as they shut the door.
"GRRR!" Candace bared her teeth as she calmed down a little, turning to Nani.
Nani sighed. "Let me guess... you got shrunk too and captured by these ants."
"No crap, Sherlock." Candace scoffed. "Great! This is just a bad day all around. Here I am, trying to relax on vacation, and this weirdo bug thing flies around me and shrinks me down... and the city too!"
Nani gave a sigh as she looked out the cell. "Just relax, help is on the way, I'm sure of it..."
Candace gave a sigh as well. "Yeah, you're probably right... I'm sure my brothers will notice something's up and they'll invent something to get me out of this mess."
"Brothers?" Nani asked in surprise, seeing how Candace was acting a little calm about it.
"Oh yeah, my brothers are pretty smart. Knowing them, they probably already have the solution." Candace said.
"Actually... I was thinking the same thing, only... my sister and... well, I would say her dog, but..." Nani said as Candace looked up in surprise.
"Really?" Candace said in shock. "You have little siblings who are smart too?"
"Well, one little sibling and... well, dog, but yes." Nani said. "My name is Nani. Nani Pelekai."
Candace gave a smile. "Candace. Candace Flynn."
And chapter three is done! How did you guys like it? Next time, we'll see what happens with the others, and what these ants could possibly want with Candace and Nani! Anyway, read, review, criticize and suggest, folks!
