The Seranade of Letgo
"Hahahaha! My newest plan is ready!," Drakken boasted looking up at his machine, Shego sat behind him, filing her nails, "That's good and all Dr. D but what does it do?" she asked. Drakken pulled his goggles off, "Well Shego, this machine can alter the world's climate. Think about it; just make it snow in the sahara desert and dry in the poles and the worldwide climate flips dramatically!," he claimed," We can hold nature itself for ransom!," "Yeah, yeah, yeah," she replied, "You know, we haven't seen Letta or even the princess for a while." "Well she's become quite independant and, even though it pains me to say this, the Possible children are good friends for her,".
"Hmm," Shego replied. "Hellooooo!" a voice chimed. The two turned to see Miss Tootsie standing in the doorway waving like a happy idiot. "I'm back for a follow up!"

"A school dance? Who would go for something this stupid?" Jim asked, turning to his brother who was checking his breath and smoothing out his hair. "How do I look?" he asked, "The same dorky look like always," Jim replied," If you're gonna ask out Letta, you better do it soon. I've heard that some of the guys in her judo club started crushing on her,". Tim nodded. He ran off to find Letta next to her locker with Michael, he walked closer preparing to ask his question, "I'd love to go with you, Michael," she said. Tim stopped in his tracks his heart painfully sinking. She turned to see Tim with a very somber look, "Hey Tim, what's wrong? Did someone mess with you?" she asked. Tim looked up, "N-no, I'm fine. I was just thinking about the next project in our science class, and if we're allowed to do another project," he lied. Letta eyed him suspiciously, "Okay then, I'll see you next class," she said. She gave him a light hug and walked away. Michael stood next to him, "Heh, sorry kid, but a girl like that needs a real man," Tim glared at him," And I'll note her when a real one comes along, until then keep your distance," "Oooh I'm quaking in my jammies," Michael mocked. He walked away laughing leaving an angry Tim in the hallway.
"Okay class the project this time is on pheremones. As you know pheremones are used in the animal world to mark territory, find mates, and even ward off other animals. In this project, each group will use a blank synthetic pheremone and add scents and other smells to produce a pheremone that demonstrates one of the three uses. To prevent another catastrophe, the Possible-Go team will be given three synthetic pheremones and two test mice. You three must make one that marks territory or ward off the other. Do not for the love of all things sane, make the third option," the teacher instructed. Letta and the boys groaned. Tim put his head on his desk, "Hey," Jim whispered, "Did you ask her out?" "No, that jerk Michael got to her first". He patted his brother's back, " Sorry dude, well if things don't work out, we'll still be here no matter what," Jim assured. "Hey did you hear? We got two weeks to make the pheremone and test it in front of the class," Letta informed. "So we gonna start today? We don't have practice and neither do you," Tim asked. She nodded.
"Okay now let's test batch #1," Jim announced. He poured a small bit from a bottle into a spray bottle and sprayed the two mice. They watched the mice for a few minutes slowly tilting their heads in the process, "Okay, this one is the one we don't use," Letta spoke. "But look at 'em go," Tim gasped. Jim closed the bottle and set it on the table behind him. "Let's give them a minute until we make the second batch. This time let's not put so much into it" Tim quipped pushing away the mice's cage and placing a cloth over it. "Now, we nix this and this from the next batch then double the amount of this. No wait, let's only put half of this into it..."

"Are we just about done here?" Shego asked. Tootsie stopped writting in her notepad and looked up, "Just one more question: where is Letta now? Its well past the time when school let out," "She's at the Possible's residence at the moment. Probably working on a project with her friends," Drakken answered, Tootsie laughed, "Again with this little joke? Well Mr. Lipsky can you call the family to prove what you say?". His eye twitched slightly. Drakken pulled out his cell phone, dialed the Possible's number, and put the phone on speaker. After a few rings picked up the phone, "Drew? It's great to hear from you!", "Yes James, is Letta there?" he asked, " Of course. She and the twins are working on another science project, but the teacher put them on a tight leash this time and gave the little musketeers stricter instructions to follow,". Tootsie looked astonished, "Well even little cows can find a suitible farmer," she noted. There was a pause on the other end, " I assume that you're Tootsie am I correct?" Mr. Possible asked. "Yep!" she chirped. "And what is the name of the orphanage you represent?" "Fair Haven orphanage in Missouri, why? Are you looking to adopt?" "No," Mr. Possible replied, "Just making light conversation. Anyway Drew, looks like the kids are almost done with their work for the day, I'll let her know that you called in to check up," Miss Tootsie stood up, "Okay its been a lovely visit. I've appriciated speaking to you, James. Tell the kids that Tootsie said 'Hi'" she nodded and left. "Is she gone?" Mr. Possible asked, "Yes, why did you ask for her information anyway?" "Well, Letta told the boys about that woman's first visit and they told me about it. I just needed the information to alert the authorities about the possible child endangerment in the orphanage," Drakken smiled, "This could be the start of a wonderful friendship, James,"
"So the bottle with the red mark is the one we need to destroy, the blue mark is the territory scent, and the yellow it the warning scent," Jim noted. He placed the three vials next to one another picking out the one marked in blue and setting it by the project instructions. Tim looked at Letta who was feeding the mice, he leaned back on the desk with the two remaining vials and fell. The vials rolled off in different directions, "Tim, you goof, where'd the bottles go?" Letta laughed, he blushed crawling on the ground looking for the bottles. His foot kicked one of the vials into an open backpack while he reached for the one he saw. " I found the yellow one!" he shouted, "Good now where's the evil marked in red?" his twin asked, the trio searched the room with no luck. Letta looked at the clock, "Sorry guys I'd love to keep searching but I gotta get home," Letta replied
Letta walked into her room putting down her backpack and went online on her laptop. Commodore Puddles skipped in with his leash, got up on his heels, and wimpered in a pleading manner. Letta sneezed, "Hold on Puddles, let me take my allergy meds then we can go play," Puddles let out a happy bark. She walked to her shelf and opened a white bottle and swallowed one of the pills. She walked to her door waving over the dog, Puddles bounced to her with his tail wagging. As they left the vial rolled out of her bag onto her desk next to her laptop.
"Hey, Letta, you here?" Shego called as she poked her head into her room. She entered the room still calling for Letta, she sat on the edge of her desk. ' Where is that kid?' she thought, 'She woulda been happy to know that happy happy Toots is going to jail' Shego sighed. Trying to keep herself level on the desk, she accidentally broke something underneath her hand. She looked at her hand finding bits of broken glass sticking to her hand with some kind of water. Shego sniffed her hand,"Eww, that stinks!" she yelled wiping her hand on her clothes, she eyes Letta's computer, still online. "Oh there's a dance at her school next week," she thought aloud.
"Really? Pheremones? I'd never thought of using those," Drakken said, "Yeah, dad," Letta replied, " But we kinda lost one of the vials we made that we can't use. SInce it was our first batch we kinda made it too strong," "Really? Which one is it?" " It was pheremones for mating. We tried to find it but couldn't" "Huh, it wouldn't be wise to lose one that potent." he warned, "You'd never know who could get hurt in the process,". They made their way back to Letta's room, "Anyway, dad could you imagine if someone dangerous was to get hit by it?" she asked. He laughed, "Prey that never happens child," suddenly Shego wraps one arm around Drakken and cover his mouth with her other hand and pulls him into Letta's room. One of the henchmen saw. He walked over to Letta, "What just happened?" "One, we found the missing test pheremone, and two, I'm gonna need to change rooms and sanitize everything I own,"
