A/N: I do not own the show…. i would've updated yesterday, but it wouldn'tlet me convert my file and another note this chapter is in Perry's POV, so this is a change from the style I've been writing

Chapter 5: Guilt

It's been three hours since I've touched that gem, three hours that I could have prevented from Phineas and Candace turning into frogs. What I've came up with in the last three hours after this happened. That it's not only Doofenshmirtz is guilty… but it also me. I'm guilty for what has happened. But it would have ended the same way, even if I hadn't kicked it out of his hand, they would have been frogs. I am weak… I had lost… I am guilty…

But that gem is still troubling me, I can talk and they … turned into frogs. Where did it come from? It is impossible for Doofenshmirtz to buy a gem with that much power off the streets. It had to be stolen, but from where?

As I sat near them, all three sitting on the couch, Ferb had Phineas and Candace on his lap, they were smiling and talking. The guilt was unbearable, their mouths were moving, but I couldn't understand them. I needed to get out of here, I lied to them, that's why I feel guilty it's because I lied to them just to protect my cover.

Doofenshmirtz is going to pay for this, even if it kills m-No! I can't do that; I'm supposed to be the good guy, not a revenger. I have to- no I need to get out of this house. I want to scream! Where can I go? Where is a go- wait the underground lair. I can go to the lair… I hope. I just have to sneak my way out. Hmm… I cant us e the cupboard… maybe the closest near the front door. Yes… that will work; I'll just sneak in there. I looked down the hallway, my eyes set at the door, and I got up and stretched, taking quick steps when I reached the hallway, I could tell Phineas was following me, I think he caught on.

"Where are you going Perry?" he asked me. I stopped and sighed, slowly turning around.

"Um… Just going out side to look at the moon and maybe a little stroll. Just don't worry about me." I replied

"Can I join you, Perry?" He asked, Phineas grin made me smile, as long I could remember he was so… optimistic and I like that about him. But I couldn't let him this time.

I shook my head "No, Phineas. I … I just want to be alone for a while."

I think he understood because he replied and smiled "Alright Perry, I'll just see you later…" and I watched my owner hop back into the living room. I felt deeply sorry for the boy; there is that chance that he would have to spend the rest of summer and perhaps his life as a frog.

After a few seconds, nobody was watching and I made sure that the coast was clear. I opened the closet door silently, I quickly shut the door. In the dark, I found the button and typed in the code, 17-5-90-2 and I dropped into the dark tube. The air tight feeling felt normal to me and I felt myself land into my chair in pure and utter silence. I slipped on my fedora over my eyes and spun the chair around to face the darkness and I sat there thinking to myself on how I was going to get Doofenshmirtz. After twenty minutes of silence and the dark, I felt a little better, but the guilt was still there. Then the screen flashed on leaving a dark shadow from behind the chair.

"Carl, the system has indicated that someone has been in the lair for the past twenty minutes. Carl, can you tell who it is?" Monogram bellowed

"No, sir. It appears empty." Carl replied

"Well if it's not Doofenshmirtz, then who is it?"

"I don't know, sir."

Ah… Major Monogram always on the job and Carl the unknown … uh… smart person. Both of them kept blabbering about who was into the lair for a few minutes till Monogram finally asked "Who's there?

I smiled and slowly turned the chair around; when I stopped my stance was perfectly still. Monogram was baffled that I was in the lair for the time and was about eleven hours early.

"Agent P? You know that you're about eleven hours too early right?" Monogram asked

I pushed up my fedora, and glanced at Monogram; I yawned softly and licked my bill. "Oh… Agent P, why are you sleeping down here? "Monogram asked and thought for a few seconds "I wish could you could ans-"

I interrupted him by saying "Monogram… I just wanted to get away for a bit…"

I was kind of funny to see Monogram's face when I spoke, it looked like that his hair fell off , and his jaw was about to fall off. "Great Googly Moogly! Agent P y-you can talk… Carl, Agent P can talk!" I watched the screen as Carl pushed Monogram off the Screen and he was quite impress and in was shock "What? Agent P?"

I chuckled and replied "Yes, Carl…"

Carl started to jump up in the air excitedly "Wow… That's cool…" Then Monogram pushed him off screen

"That's nice Carl. We know that Agent P can talk." I could hear Carl still whooping for joy, Monogram rolled his eyes and cleared his voce "This was Doofenshmirtz's doing, wasn't it?"

"Yes, in a way. His latest plan was to turn the entire Tri-State Area into frogs, he was going to use a gem of sort that he said that turn humans into frogs… I guess it works because…." I sighed and rubbed my bill "Two of my owners were turn into frogs… I kicked the gem out of his hand and it landed in my backyard…. Jumped after it and I've touched also that's how I can talk. But I let it fall and my red headed ones, Phineas and Candace are the ones that are frogs now. Now it's leaving Ferb by himself to take them. Major, this is the real deal and I have no idea how to deal with it now…"

I watched Monogram rub his chin "Well Agent P, your going to have to keep an eye on that gem and keep close on your family. Who knows with Doofenshmirtz he would do anything now to get this gem back. Just keep watching him. Do you think you can do that?"

I cracked a smile "Of Course…"

Monogram smiled "Well alrighty… does Doofenshmirtz know that you can talk?

"I hope not…" I replied

"Well… Keep it that way Agent P… do what you have to do to keep Doofenshmirtz from knowing…"

I saluted him and got up from the chair, I muttered "Yes, Sir…"

"One last thing, Agent P…" I stopped at the entrance and turned around "I hope you know that this is your fault, so don't fell guilty about it…"

"Um… sir. I didn't mention anything about me being guilty." I replied

"I know Agent P… but sometimes when bad things happen… the person fells guilty about the situation. Doofenshmirtz caused this…"

"I know, sir. But -"

Monogram smiled "I know, you're doing the best you can… and any Agent should be proud on what you're doing…"

I smiled "Yes, Sir…"

"Good night Agent P…"

I smiled and turned back and exit the lair before the door shut. I muttered "Good night sir…" After that I could still hear Carl yelling excitedly and I headed home, where I should be.
