Part 4
"Mom?" Steve asked his mom. "When will Dad be here?" Francine looked at her son.
"I don't know." She admitted. "But he'll come. Just wait and…"
"THEY'RE HERE!" Klaus cried out in joy.
"He's right!" Private piped up. "Stan is here, along with Skipper, Perry, Dudley and a lizard or is it a dinosaur?" Everybody looked. They all cheered when they saw Mac and the agents.
"Oh, who cares?" Kowalski said. "Skipper's here to save us!"
"SKIPPER!" Rico shouted.
"Psst, beaver tail!" Skipper whispered to the monotreme. Perry looked at him. He pointed his flipper. "I'll give up the agent act if I were you." Perry looked at where Skipper was pointing to. He saw Phineas, Ferb and the others. He gave the penguin the thumbs up before going into his mindless act. He chattered.
Dr. Doofenshmirtz wiped at his eyes as if he was seeing things.
"Am I seeing things?" He wanted to know. "Where did Perry the Platypus go? One moment he was there, and then I blinked, a normal platypus is in his place. I just don't get it." Dr. Blowhole rolled his eyes.
"Oh Doofenshmirtz!" He said. "Can you get any stupider?" Dr. D looked at him, confused.
"What?" He questioned. "What did I do this time?" Dr. Blowhole shook his head.
"Nothing! Let's just fight and get this over with!" Dr. D looked back at the agents and the Yoshi.
"Right!"
The fight began. Skipper went for Blowhole. Stan battled Snaptrap. Mac noticed that Perry had stayed behind.
"Stan?" Mac asked him. "What happened to Perry. Why did he put his fedora away and go on a fours as if he's a mindless pet?"
"Shh!" Stan whispered to him. "He's just protecting his title. His owners don't know he's an agent and he wants it kept that way otherwise he'll have to live somewhere else."
"Oh, okay!"
"Quit whispering and fight!" Snaptrap ordered.
"Yeah!" Doofenshmirtz added. "Leave whatever you're whispering about for later!" They resumed fighting. Mac kicked Doof in the chin.
"OUCH!" Doof cried. "Why you little! Perry the Platypus must've taught you that move!"
Perry sighed, watching the fight. He wished he could help, but he knew he had to keep his cover safe. So, he just watched them.
He then had an idea! He might not be able to fight, but he could still help his owners and the others. He slowly crept down to where they were.
"PERRY!" Phineas cried out as he saw him approaching. "It's nice to see you pal, are you going to untie us?" Perry went to where the ropes held his owner to his chair and bit down hard on it. Phineas stood up when he was free. The boy bent down, hugged, and petted his pet.
"Good boy!" He said. "I just knew we'll see you again; I just knew it!"
"Uh, not to interrupt or anything," Kowalski said. "But could you save it for, I don't know, UNTIL WE'RE ALL FREED FROM THESE ROPES!?" He struggled at the ropes binding him to his chair.
"Okay," The boy agreed. He looked at his pet. "Well, Perry. You heard what Kowalski said. Get to work! I'll help too." With that, the platypus went behind Kowalski's chair and bit on his ropes. He went to free Private. Phineas went to help untie the others.
"You know," Kowalski started. "Real, non cartoon adult platypuses, don't have teeth." Private looked confused.
"Then, how do they chew their food?" He wanted to know. Kowalski looked at him.
"They have bony plates for grinding their food."
"Oh, that's interesting."
Perry was about to untie Klaus, when Roger spoke up.
"You might not want to untie him." He told him. "He almost spilled your secret." Perry glared at the fish. Is this true? Klaus laughed nervously and pretended to play dumb.
"Secret?" He said. "What secret?" He shrugged. "I don't know what he's talking about."
"Hey, yeah!" Phineas said, looking at his pet, then at Klaus. "What was the secret?" Klaus sweated.
"Uh…" He looked at a glaring Perry who punched his fist. You better not! "That he secretly switches to your bed und Ferb's at night?" Phineas smiled at him.
"We know that." He said. "That's no secret." Klaus sighed in relief.
"Good!" Phineas looked puzzled again.
"Does he have any more?"
"No; no; that's all of them." Phineas smiled again.
"Okay." Klaus looked at Perry.
"So, are you going to untie me or what?" Perry bit at his ropes.
"Okay," Francine said once they were all free. "Now that we're all free, let's get out of here." They all nodded. They were about to go when the ground shook.
"The ground is shaking again!" Private said.
"Quick!" Kowalski shouted. "The volcano's about to erupt!" They were about to run when they saw the villains approach them. Mac and the agents were unconscious on the ground. "Uh oh, now what?"
"Since the volcano is about to erupt…" Dr. Blowhole started.
"It's 'volcano pushing time'!" Snaptrap finished.
"Women and children first!" Dr. Doofenshmirtz said. Steve clung to his mom.
"Mom," He said, scared. "I'm scared."
"I know, babe." Francine said. "We'll think of something." Perry then hopped in front of his owners, giving a mean chatter. Dr. Doofensmirtz narrowed his eyes.
"Get out of the way regular platypus!" He snapped. Perry didn't bulge. "I said get away! Sheech, you're as stubborn as another platypus that I know!"
"Get him, Perry!" Phineas ordered his pet. Perry ran up to the doctor, jumped up, and bit his finger.
"OWCH!" Dr. D screamed in pain. He narrowed his eyes at Perry. "Okay, that's it! The platypus goes first!" With that, the doctor picked up the platypus by the scruff of his neck. Perry struggled in his grasp. The good cartoons gasped. Dr. Doofenshmirtz went towards the bubbling volcano. "This is for all the trouble you caused me, platypus!" Perry looked at the volcano pool and his eyes widened. He struggled stronger then ever.
"NOOOOOO!" Phineas cried. He was about to run to kick the doctor when Snaptrap held him back. Dr. Blowhole put each flipper on Ferb and Candace. "PERRY!" The red haired boy narrowed his eyes. "You can't do this!" Dr. D laughed.
"I can and I will! Your beloved pet will became burnt platypus in 5, 4, 3, 2.." Suddenly, he was slapped in the face by Skipper. "OWCH!" He dropped Perry, who managed to grasp the edge of the volcanic pit and climb back up. Perry ran to his owners.
"PERRY!" Phineas cried. He stepped on Snaptrap's foot. Snaptrap yelled out in pain. Ferb and Candace managed to get out of Blowhole's hold. The kids ran to their pet and the Phineas hugged the monotreme. "Oh, Perry! We couldn't imagine a life without you!" Candace smiled as she saw Perry in her brother's arms. Stan grabbed Doofenshmirtz.
"This is for letting two kids and their sister almost watch their beloved pet get dropped into a volcano that's about to blow right before their eyes!" He punched him. He stumbled back and balanced himself, as he was about to fall in. He sighed in relief.
"Phew; that was a close one!" He then fought with Stan.
"DUDLEY!" Peg shouted as she was being held up by Snaptrap. Dudley noticed this and gasped.
"MOM!" The dog cried. The rat looked at Keswick.
"You're next!" Keswick gulped. Dudley glared at his nemesis.
"You're not getting my mom, Snaptrap!" Snaptrap laughed.
"Oh I'm not? Well, too bad!" Dudley ran up yelling. He headbutted into Snaptrap. Snaptrap fell to the ground dropping Peg. She screamed. Dudley ran to catch her.
"I'll get you, Mom!" He put his paws out and caught her. "I got you, Mom!" He tried to hold her up. "Gee, Mom; you're heavy. Have you gained weight?"
"Oh, you saved me, Dudley!" His mom said. She then kissed her son. "That's my agent son!" Dudley smiled nervously.
"No problem, Mom; anytime!" He then collapsed to the ground, bringing Peg with him.
"Look at that!" Kitty told Keswick. "Mother and son reunited, isn't that lovely?"
"It sure i-is K-Kitty!" Keswick agreed, talking for the first time.
"Skipper?" Private asked him as they were battling Dr. Blowhole. "Where's the dinosaur and lizard creature? Isn't he with you guys?"
"You mean Mac?" Skipper responded. "He's going back to the island. He'll be back and he's a Yoshi."
"You trust him?"
"Well of course Private. He's our new friend; he won't abandon us in our time of need."
"Well, if you're sure." They went back to fighting with the dolphin.
"Stop right, there!" Called out a familiar voice. Everybody looked up. It was the leader of 'The Bad Ones.' Mac came beside him, as well as the other Yoshis.
"See Private?" Skipper said to him. "I told you he'd be back!" The Yoshis came to where they were and all of them took out their spears and pointed them at the bad guys. The leader and Mac came in front. The leader looked mad.
"You are not welcome here!" He said. "This is our island, not yours!"
"What makes it yours?" Blowhole demanded to know. "It doesn't have your names on it, does it?"
"No." The leader replied. "But I'm sure it doesn't have your names ether!"
"He got you there." Dr. D told Blowhole.
"Shut up!" The dolphin said.
"Well, it doesn't!"
"I said, shut up!"
"Okay, okay, sheesh! You don't have to be so angry about it. I was just stating the facts. If we wanted this island for our own, we should of wrote our names in the san…" Dr. Blowhole drove to Dr. Doofenshmirtz and leaned in his face.
"You're not SHUTTING UP!" Dr. D gulped.
"Yes sir!" Dr. Blowhole drove closer to the leader. Dr. D sighed in relief. He leaned towards Snaptrap.
"That dolphin has issues!" Dr. Blowhole turned to Dr. D.
"I heard that!" Dr. D gulped again and stood right up again. Dr. Blowhole looked back at the leader.
"We're almost done here." He told him. "Just as soon as we're done, you can have it as long as you want." The leader shook his head.
"We want it now."
"Well, you can't."
"Well, it seems as we reached an impasse."
"It seems as though we have. Now, leave or we'll have to use force." The Yoshis got ready with their spears. Dr. Blowhole laughed.
"I'd like to see you try!"
"Very well then." He snapped his fingers. "FIRE YOUR SPEARS!" And with that, the Yoshis fired their spears. Dr. D, Blowhole and Dr. Doofenshmirtz paced frantically, screaming as the spears rained down at them.
"Come on!" Mac shouted at the agents and their families and friends. "This is our chance!" The agents nodded and all of them followed after Mac.
As soon as they got out, the ground shook again….and then the volcano erupted. Everybody looked back. Stan whistled in amazement.
"Wow!" He said. "We made it out of there just in time!"
They ran to the shore, they then saw paddleboats.
"Those must be for the Yoshis." Kowalski observed.
"Then we can take them off this island." Stan said.
"Or we can use a phone." Steve pointed out. Stan looked at his son.
"If we can get any reception out here we can, but if not, we're going to have to use these boats."
"I'm sure Mac will let us use his phone if he has one." Hayley spoke. "And if we ask him."
"If we use the boats," Klaus spoke. "I can't go in salt water. Salt water burns me." Private looked at the fish, confused.
"Why does salt water burn you?" Klaus shrugged.
"Must be because I'm human on the inside…and maybe because I'm a freshwater fish." Roger then looked at Klaus.
"If salt water burns you, why didn't you complain when we were chasing down George Henston?" He asked.
"Because that was an emergency. True, I wanted to yell because of the burn, but I was too busy thinking of what we had to do to think of the pain."
"You know, this counts as an emergency."
"You just want me in the water so I can be in pain, don't you?" Roger nodded.
"Boy, you can read me like a book."
"Well, I'm not, so there!"
"You will if there's no room."
"There'll be room, if not I can sit in somebody's lap…maybe yours."
"Not going to happen! That may work in car rides, but not here!"
"Maybe, maybe not. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."
Perry then tugged on Stan's pants. Stan looked down at him. The platypus pointed to his Smartphone that he was holding. Stan read what he had typed. He smiled. He stood back up. Perry quickly put his phone away and went to pet mode.
"Never fear." Stan told everybody. "Help is on the way. A helicopter will come and pick us up." Everybody cheered.
"Who called for a helicopter?" Candace wanted to know. Stan looked at her.
"As long as we get help, there's no good reason to know, is there?"
"He has a point there." Ferb told his sister.
They then saw the bad guys run for their lives as a swarm of Yoshis chased them, firing their spears.
"I told you we could trust Mac." Skipper told Private.
"QUICK!" They heard Blowhole shout. He splashed into the water. "Onto my back!" Snaptrap and Dr. Doofenshmirtz nodded, and hopped on the dolphin's back.
"TALLYHO!" Dr. Doofenshmirtz shouted.
"Please, don't say that." Blowhole said.
"Fine!" They were then off before the Yoshis got to the shore. They all shouted out.
"DON'T COME BACK!" The Yoshi leader shouted after them. Mac came down then.
"Well," Mac told him. "I did my end of the bargain, now it's time you do the same. You and your tribe get off this island." The leader shook his head.
"I'm afraid I can't do that." He said. Mac was shocked.
"What?! But you promised! You said you and your tribe will get off this island if I drive off the trespassers in the volcano."
"Then you shouldn't have trusted me then." Mac then narrowed his eyes at him.
"You're right, I shouldn't have." The leader and the others went off laughing. Mac went to a palm tree and sat in its shade. He welled up with tears.
"Now, what am I going to do?" He asked himself.
"Well," Stan spoke. "Until we can get off, we'll have to just wait. We'll sit right here." He sat in the sand.
"But, what about Mac?" Phineas asked. "Aren't we going to help him?"
"Kid's right, Stan." Skipper told him. "We might be waiting for hours, in the meantime, we can help Mac drive these Yoshis off this island." Stan stood up with a sigh.
"Fine, what do you got?"
"Well, nothing yet." Stan groaned. "But I'm sure with all of us thinking, we can come up with a plan."
So, they all thought of a plan. Phineas then had an idea.
"I got it!" He said. He motioned for them to come closer, when they did, he told them his plan. Confused, Mac came over to them.
"What are you whispering about?" He wanted to know.
"A plan." Skipper told him. "We're going to help you drive those Yoshis away."
