Yay! Chapter 4! I'm glad you guys are enjoying my story
Perry awoke to loud clanging. He turned his head. He was so warm and comfortable just lying there. He curled into himself.
Clang!
Perry covered his ears with a cushion. He was trying to sleep! Where was that noise coming from?
Bang!
Perry groggily cracked open one eye. Everything was a black and purple blur. He blinked a few times in attempt to clear his vision even a little. He could now see that he was in Doofensmirtz evil Inc. Lying on a couch.
Why was he here? He sat up, rubbed his eyes and yawned. His body ached. Teal hair fell over his eyes. Hair? He had fur, not hair. He swiped the hair away from his eyes with the back of his hand.
Perry attempted to stand up, holding on to the side of the couch but fell back down with thump. He then realised there was a mirror in front of him. He blinked again and his vision cleared. He screamed.
Before him was not the reflection of a platypus, but that of a human boy. Perry held his head in his hands. His breathing quickend. The events of the day before re-playing in his mind.
"No, no, no, no, no!" He panicked. Doofensmirtz had turned him into a human! How was he supposed th fight as a human? What about the boys? He couldn't be their pet anymore if he was human!
He then heard doof talking to Vanessa.
"-and I don't think I'll be able to turn him back!"
Perry's eyes glazed over with tears. He might never see the boys again! And it was all Doofensmirtz's fault! He tried to blink away the tears that threatened to spill.
Who was he kidding. He was the one that let doof turn him human. He should have been paying attention. It was his own fault.
The tears rolled down his cheeks. He put his legs back up onto the couch and rested his head on his knees. He might never see his family again...
A door opening snapped him out of his thoughts. "-Ugh, I'll check on him then." doof said to Vanessa, not yet looking at Perry. Doof closed the door and turned around.
"Oh, Perry the pla- I mean human! You're awake!" Perry did not look at him. He was too upset. He didnt want doof to see him like this. Doof walked towards him. Perry felt embarrassed now, that he'd been crying.
"Is something wrong Perry the human?" Doof asked. He sounded generally worried. Of course something was wrong! Perry wouldn't have been crying if something wasn't wrong!
Perry was suddenly annoyed at himself. If doof hadnt have turned him human, he wouldnt be sitting here crying! He was the best agent. He was supposed to be better than this! Mabye the boys could help turn him back. The point is, hope was not lost.
Perry looked up at doof with an annoyed expression, even though his eyes were still a bit red.
"Are you OK, Perry the human?" Doof asked again. No he was not OK. At least the boys could might be able to turn him back. At least he had some hope. First he'd ask doof.
"Can you turn me back?" Perry asked hopefully. He was surprised that he could actually talk. His voice was calm and collected with a slightly austrailian accent.
Doof sighed and rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "I-Im sorry Perry the human, but I accidentally pressed the permanent change button on the device when I shot you. I don't even know why I put a permanent button on it anyway. You see, when I was building it-"
Perry was fed up of listening to doof ramble. Doof wasn't even looking at him anymore, just rambling about random stuff that happened. Perry smirked. He had an idea.
"-and that's why you should never wear ducky momo slippers -ouch!" Perry punched doof in the nose then sped out of the apartment as fast as he could, which he found was surprisingly quick for a human.
"Curse you Perry the human!" Doof shouted. "And that hurt!"
Line break
Perry decided to take a walk around the park to clear his head a little, before going to see the boys. He'd found that he could still understand the animals too. That was cool.
He'd been walking for about half an our now, and his feet were getting sore. He sat down beside the stream. He was starting to get used to his human body now. It also felt kind of familiar at times.
He put his hands into his pockets and felt something in his left one. He cautiously took it out.
It was a wallet. How did he get a wallet? Well, It made just as much sense as him having clothes. He shrugged and opened it. Inside there was a driver's licence, a few pictures, a credit card, and a key.
He looked at the driver's licence first. He gasped. It had his name on it. There was a picture of his human form on it. It was kind of freaky. Did doof 's machine make fake ID's?
Then he studied the pictures. Wait, was that baby Candace? The other one was of Linda. Why would there be pictures of them? There were no pictures of the boys, why them?
He then lifted the key. It was the same one that he had found yesterday. Perry had no idea how it had wound up in the wallet.
His head throbbed again. Perry groaned. And just when he thought his headache was gone.
