Chapter four
Perry chattered nervously, backing away from the screen. He hit the wall across the room from that screen, but quickly jumped away from it. He didn't trust anything in this room. He learned that some of these rooms were built with traps, for agents they knew would be able to escape this room within seconds. Perry didn't know if they thought he could escape or not, but he wasn't about to take any chances. He decided that the best thing for him to do at the moment would be to listen, and hope that he could somehow keep his memories.
"Agent P, are you even listening to me?" Monogram asked, sounding slightly annoyed. Perry nodded, glaring slightly at the sound of his old agent name. He never wanted to hear that name again.
"Good. I'll restart, in case you didn't hear any of that. We have brought you into custody for a short period of time. We didn't do this to wipe your memories, we only did this to ask a favor. I'm pretty sure you've heard, but somewhere in one of our dimensions, the second dimensions Dr. Doofenshmirtz is still out there. A group of kids, named the resistance, came to our agency, asking for our best agents. We assumed that they were also looking for Dr. Doofenshmirtz, so we said yes, of course. When we think of who our best agent is, we've always thought of you. Basically, what we are asking you to do is join the agency this one last time. We need you, Agent P. Without you, we would have no one to help the resistance. We promise that we won't bug you again after this mission. So, what do you say, Agent P?"
Perry looked at Monogram, a look of surprise and a little bit of anger on his face. Was he crazy? Did he actually expect Perry to join the agency again, especially after all that he had done to Phineas and him? Monogram seemed to see all of this in Perry's eyes though. His usual emotionless face was filled with sadness, as if something had been bugging him for a while.
"I know I haven't been a very good leader recently. I know I've hurt you and your owners. But I also know I can be better. I promise that after this, you can choose if you want to ever come back here again. I hope you will come back again, but I won't force you to." Monogram told Perry. That was the best way he could apologize. He wasn't used to saying sorry.
Perry just nodded. He decided that the best thing he could do at the moment is just agree to what Monogram asked him to do. He knew he'd probably never speak to his leader again after this anyway. Plus, he knew who the other dimension Doofenshmirtz was after, and he refused to let him lay a single finger on him. This would probably be the best way to protect the ones he loved.
Phineas woke up before the rest of his family. He didn't wake up from a nightmare this time. He woke up from an alarm going off on his phone. It was on vibrate, so it didn't wake up Ferb, which was good for Phineas. He pulled the phone out of his pajama pocket, and turned it off before trying to sit up as quiet as possible. He looked over at Ferb, making sure he was still asleep before standing up. He dropped a note on his pillow before slipping out of his house. He just hoped he would return this time.
Annabelle woke up in a dark room, scared for some reason. She couldn't remember why she was so scared though. She could hear something beeping somewhere near her, and for some reason it scared her even more. The thing that probably scared her the most was the fact that that she didn't know where she was.
The last thing she remembered was arriving at work. She was a few minutes late, due to traffic. She, like most people who arrived late, got some of the worst jobs in the hotel because all the jobs were taken. She never complained about this though. She's learned that it's better to just do her job without complaining, then to complain and get even worse jobs.
The jobs that day weren't too horrible. All she was asked to do was get some of the rooms ready for people who had reserved rooms for that night. She was used to doing jobs like this by now. Someone gave her a list, and she got to work. She couldn't remember anything after that. She was searching for anything in her mind that would give her an idea, but she couldn't find any memories after this, which just worried her more.
She was startled out of her thoughts by a light knock from somewhere in the darkness. She heard the light creaking of a door opening, and light footsteps coming through the door.
"Excuse me, are you awake?" She heard a whisper coming from next to her bed.
"Y- Yes…" she stuttered, sounding as frightened as she felt.
"Would you mind if I turned on a light for you then?" the person asked.
"No, go ahead." She was starting to calm down. This person seemed nice enough.
A bright light turned on, making her close her eyes momentarily. When she opened her eyes, she saw she was in a hospital room. The beeping she had earlier came from a machine that was listening to her heartbeats. She looked around to see who had turned on the light for her. She saw a boy with a triangle head. He had messy red hair and dark blue eyes. He wore a white shirt with orange stripes, and blue shorts. He was smiling, but she could tell from the look in his eyes that he was as scared as she was.
"Sorry if I woke you up." The boy mumbled.
"Oh, don't worry, you didn't. What's your name?" she asked.
"My name is Phineas. Do you mind me asking you a few questions? I need to go home soon." Phineas asked, sitting down in one of the visitor's chairs. Annabelle just shook her head, suddenly feeling a slight headache.
"Can you please tell me anything you remember about how you ended up here?" Phineas asked, noticing the frightened expression that came back to her face.
So that's chapter four :D! What do you think? I'm happy right now. My headaches finally gone :D! I was going to post this chapter yesterday, but I got one third of the way before I was about to fall asleep typing.
Anyway, I may start writting a new story soon. It's been in my head all day. I actually like this idea :).
I can't think of anything else to write right now, so tell me what you guys think! This story's gotten a lot of reviews so far. It makes me so happy, because I think you guys will enjoy what's coming up. I'm curious how many of you will want to murder Alt Doof after I'm done writing this story though. XD I'd join some of you with it. I really don't like my Alt Doof. He's mean!
