Three Weeks Later
Perry was laying on the couch inside the house, resting, his muscles a bit sore from his last mission. He wondered what his boys created today, but was too tired to go and ask them. For 3 weeks his boys and him have kept the secret of their knowing and have so far gotten away with it. The only other person, well animal, to know was Pinky and he hasn't said anything. What Perry found funny was when Ferb told him what happened when he left to go on his mission that day: Isabella came over and Phineas instantly remembered the kiss; he was embarrassed and red-faced the rest of the day. He laughed and laid his head back on his paws when he felt his watch buzz; he looked down and was confused when he saw URGENT flashing. He hopped onto his back legs immediately and put on his fedora, turning around to move the mirror from the back wall, which covered one of his tube entrances.
"Perry?" Phineas asked as he and Ferb walked in. The look Perry gave to them instantly raised some alarms in the boys' head. "Is something wrong?"
Perry shook his head and pulled out his notebook and wrote quickly. "I don't have time to talk about this but you 2 can come down and hide behind the hovercar and listen in."
Phineas and Ferb nodded before following Perry down to his lair. As soon as they were dropped onto the chair, they got back up and hid behind the hovercar. Perry checked to make sure they were both hidden before turning on the computer. Major Monogram instantly blinked on and Perry noticed he looked worried and a bit frazzled, which is unusual.
"Oh thank goodness Agent P, you're alright." MM said, finally focusing on Perry.
Perry gave him a confused look.
"We just gathered some intel that the members of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. have amped up their game. It looks like kidnap orders have been put out on every animal agent in the Tri-State area, but it seems the biggest one is on you, Agent P." MM said.
"Really?" Perry chattered.
"As of now, all missions have been canceled, since Doofenschmirtz along with a lot of the other agents' nemeses are members of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. Please Agent P, stay safe and stay in touch. Every agent in the O.W.C.A. is in danger and we are working as fast as we can to locate the group's meeting place." MM took a deep breath before continuing, "Something's wrong with the members, Agent P, and it's making them step up their game. Again, please stay safe. Monogram out." MM said before the screen blinked out; he didn't even salute.
Perry was still confused about the whole thing. He disconnected the webcam again before getting off the chair and walking slowly over to Phineas and Ferb. He watched them walk out and saw worry in their eyes.
"Perry, is that true?" Phineas asked. "Is this group, L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N., really after you and a lot of the other agents?"
Perry nodded before going back to his computer and pulling up the notepad app. "It seems so. But there is one thing that the evil scientists of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. don't know, or seem to get."
"What is that?" Phineas asked.
"They really don't understand that some of the agents have lives outside the agency, that some of us are pets." Perry typed.
"Some of us?" Phineas asked.
"Yeah." Perry typed. "In the Tri-State area, there are only 7 agents, including me, who have owners. But for right now, let's not worry. All the agents, including me, know how to protect ourselves."
Perry saw Phineas grab something from his pocket. "Then hopefully this will help you." Phineas kneeled by Perry and fastened his locket back around his neck. "We upgraded your locket a little."
Perry gave them a look.
"On the right side, there is a tiny laser that will cut through almost anything." Phineas said, pointing to the button. "On the left side we sewed in a GPS tracker chip that'll tell us wherever you are in the world and broadcasts on a secure network that only Ferb or myself can access." Perry gave them an angry look. "Before you yell at us, we made sure the GPS tracker can only be activated when you want it to be, just by pushing the button over it. When it's activated, I'll get a notice sent to my cellphone, and then we'll know you're in trouble."
Perry nodded, completely stunned.
"We also added a tiny camera next to your locket and, again, only you can activate it. So then if we find you, we'll know what we're up against." Phineas said. "There's also one more feature, but it still needs some work done on it. We'll add it on when we're done with it, but with a kidnap threat on you, the GPS and laser will come in handy now."
Perry felt his eyes tear up. His boys care so much about him that they upgraded his own collar with things he'd need if he ever got trapped. He hugged both of them tightly before beckoning them to follow him back up to the house. They rode the elevator to the entrance on the side of the house and once they stepped outside, he went back to pet mode. Phineas and Ferb went to the tree and sat, Perry following them, laying down in between. He was still very confused on why L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. members were turning to such drastic measures now, why they wanted the animal agents out of the way. Were they doing something that called for the agents to be decommissioned? He really needed to talk with some of the other agents, but the closest one to him was Pinky. The members were up to something, but he needed to find out what, especially if it poses a threat to his boys.
Perry saw Phineas look around the yard before turning back to him. "I think we need to talk about this Perry."
Perry shook his head. He wanted Phineas and Ferb far, far away from the members of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. and any evil plans they might have.
"Come on Perry." Phineas said. "Maybe talking about it will jog something. Why would they want the animal agents?"
Perry also looked over the yard before pulling out his notebook and writing. "That's what I've been thinking about. The only reason they would want the animal agents out of the way was if they were planning something really big and really evil. What confuses me is why they're doing this. This is worse than their usual evil."
"Worse?" Phineas asked.
"The evil scientists in the area aren't really good at being evil. They try, don't get me wrong, but they just aren't good at it. This goes above and beyond their normal evil."
"Then something's changed." Phineas said and Ferb nodded. "I mean, we've met your nemesis and you're right, he isn't good at being evil."
Perry nodded before he heard the gate door open. He immediately tensed up, his muscles getting him ready to spring up to protect his boys if necessary. He relaxed when he saw it was just Pinky walking in, but he and both boys got confused when they didn't see Isabella following. They watched the Chihuahua scamper over to them, his shaking going on strong, like usual. He sat in front of the three and looked them over before speaking.
"You heard, right?" Pinky asked.
"Yeah, we were just talking about it." Perry said back.
"Any ideas?" Pinky asked. "To me, it just doesn't seem like the L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. style, kidnapping."
"We were just thinking that too." Perry said. "Phineas suggested that something could of changed within the group."
"That would make sense." Pinky said, nodding. "But why? Why kidnap us?"
"I think they're working on something, something big and something evil." Perry said.
"Could they have a new leader?" Ferb asked suddenly, making both animals look up at him.
"Good question Ferb." Phineas said to his stepbrother. "If they're eviler than usual, could that be because they're under a different rule?"
"That actually makes sense." Pinky said, nodding.
"But even if their leader is eviler than them, that wouldn't necessarily make them more evil in return." Perry said, also writing it down so the boys could understand.
They thought for a moment, running different scenarios through their heads. Perry suddenly remembered something from one of his old missions. It was when they were holding auditions for the new leader and Rodney made an evil ray and accidently made Phineas and Ferb's dad evil. Maybe the new leader made something like that and zapped all of the members of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. to make them more evil. That would explain everything. Perry wrote his thoughts down and showed that to his boys and said his thoughts aloud for Pinky.
"And that's why, Perry, you're the number one agent at the O.W.C.A." Pinky said, winking.
Perry blushed at the compliment. "I need to relay this information to Major Monogram. Maybe it would help in the search for their meeting place." He looked at his two boys, then sighed. "But I'm too afraid to leave them alone. Both their parents are running errands and Candace is at Stacy's, so they're home alone."
"Don't worry about it Perry." Pinky said. "I'll go tell Wanda what we've deduced, leaving out the boys of course, and she can pass that on to everyone else."
Perry sighed his relief. "Thank you Pinky. But what about Isabella? She's safe, right?"
"Her mom is home and she's teaching Isabella to cook some Spanish dish." Pinky said. "She'll be safe for a few more minutes. I'll talk to you later. Remember to keep your watch with you. And stay safe."
"You do the same Pinky." Perry said before the Chihuahua got up and scampered back to his house.
"Everything alright Perry?" Phineas asked as he watched the gate slam shut.
He got his notebook and wrote. "Pinky is going back to tell his superior, Wanda, what we've learned. She'll spread it around the agency."
"Why aren't you the one telling your boss?" Phineas asked.
"I didn't want to leave you two alone." Perry wrote. "Isabella's mom is with her, so Pinky feels safe leaving them alone for a few more minutes."
"Perry. We can take care of ourselves." Phineas said, smiling at the platypus.
"Never said you couldn't, but I still worry." Perry wrote. "I've found out I'm quite an overprotective pet."
Phineas and Ferb just laughed.
"Why don't we go inside and watch TV." Perry wrote, looking around the backyard. "It's a little safer in there."
Phineas rolled his eyes before picking him up and all of them heading inside to the living room. Perry jumped out of Phineas's hold and replaced the mirror he had took down earlier back onto the wall before sitting down on the couch. His boys just shook their heads before sitting on either side of him. Phineas flipped on the TV and found a channel playing Pinhead Pierre and settled in to watch. Perry saw it was a marathon and just chuckled to himself before he laid his chin on his paws and drifted off to sleep, Phineas stroking his fur.
