Chapter 6
Lily's POV
The next two days flowed pretty smoothly. Phineas and Ferb created two more different inventions/things over the course of those days. One was the ultimate wrestling arena for their two uncles to fight. The other one was a cloning machine. Not robots but perfect clones.
I lay in the tree while Phineas and Ferb below me looked through the blueprints. The two were still unsure on what to do today.
"Hey Lily! We have a few blue prints in our room. Can you go and fetch them?" Phineas called to me.
I nod and leap down. I walk into the house and up the stairs. Not in any rush.
Perry's POV
I watch Lily walk in the house in my mindless pet form. I was still fuming mad, guilty, and angry with Lily. I felt bad about what I said but she might be a danger for all I knew! Plus she said those awful things about me. I sighed silently and walk away from Phineas and Ferb. They were to intent on their project to notice me walk away. I round the house only to pause. I scented an unfamiliar scent. I was on my feet in an instant. My hat on my head, ready for action. At first I thought it was my imagination so I take off my fedora and start to walk back to Phineas and Ferb. What I do see makes my blood run cold.
A can of sleeping gas was flung over my head and toward Phineas and Ferb. I could do nothing as both my owners slumped over, unconscious. My heart was racing in fear for my owners. I scan around for any sign of who threw the can. I look up and almost fainted right then and there.
Standing over me was a large German Sheppard. Its teeth bared in a snarl. Though this was robot dog, not a real dog, it could hurt and maybe even do worse to a smaller and not as strong me.
"Hello Agent P." The dog growls at me. Being called by my secret agent name hits me, hard. At once it clicks in my brain. This was the agent sent by Doof. He was spying right under my nose, waiting for his chance to strike. I had been going after the wrong person/animal the whole time. It was my over confidence in thinking I could do anything that caused this. I had no one to blame but myself.
"Now if you will kindly move. I will take those two with me." The robot dog, which almost looked real, smirked and added. "That is, unless you think you could beat me yourself."
I chattered angrily in response and got into my own position, ready to fight.
"You asked for it, platypus!" The dog snarled charging for Perry.
Lily's POV
I walk back outside. The blue prints were in my mouth
"Hey Phineas! Ferb!" I call, my voice muffled by the blueprints in my mouth. "I got the blueprints!"
As soon as I see Phineas and Ferb not moving on the ground, I assume the worse. Fearing they were not a live I rush forward. Nosing their faces, listening for a heartbeat. As soon as I hear the strong steady heart beat coming from both boys. I let out a sigh of relief, happiness flooding over me.
Then I turned to the issue at hand. Why were Phineas and Ferb unconscious? As if an answer to my question, I spot the can of sleeping gas. I blink a few times before drinking in the scents of the air. The scents made my blood turn to ice. I smelt Perry and a dog close by. As I listened for any noises, I heard only the snarls of the dog. It sounded fake but powerful and deep. A giant robot dog. I thought shivering from head to tail.
Then I hear a chatter of fear. That snaps me to protect mode. I had to help. I grab Phineas by his shirt and drag him inside. I then dragged Ferb in. I dragged them both in as quickly as I could. Leaving them on the ground, I closed the sliding door behind me and bared my teeth. I am coming Perry. I thought as I closed the door and streaked toward the battle.
Perry's POV
I let out a chatter of fear before launching myself at my opponent. He may big but his blows were slow. I was able to dodge him and get clean hits on him.
The hits were not doing anything though; he almost seemed invisible by the hits. I was getting tired, my speed rapidly leaving me. Then the robot caught me by the tail. He shook my roughly for a minute then threw me roughly to the ground and pinned me there.
"Bye agent P!" The dog snarled at me
I close my eyes, waiting for the final blow. I tried to protect you Phineas and Ferb. I am sorry it was not good enough.
Yet, it never came. In fact the weight of the dog was taken off me. I look up, and struggle to stand up. Still soar after the last battle. What I did see made me more alert than ever.
Lily was scrambling all over the dog, her claws out. Tearing the metal of the dog, showing the wires. I was impressed but I could tell it was hurting Lily with every hit she gave. It was wrecking her to use her claws like this I realized
I could only watch in horror on what happens next. The dog's powerful teeth meet the poor kitten's legs. Lily howled in pain and struggled to get away. Wailing in pain. Scorching her claws across the dogs face,
I reacted and launched myself at the dog. My eyes blazing. I was ready. I kicked the dog in the mouth. The force of my kick was enough for the dog loosen his grip on Lily. Lily sprang away and slumped on the ground, panting. If it was from fighting or the pain, I did not know.
I ran up to Lily's side and helped her get back on her paws once again. I winced at the state of her leg. It was torn and bloody and a matted state compared to its former self.
We stood, side by side. Glaring at the dog. The robot dog returned the glare. Daring us to attack him. I was about to when I saw Phineas and Ferb emerging from behind us.
Ferb's POV
I blink and open my eyes and was shocked to realize I was in the living room. What happened? What time was it? Why was I down here? I could remember nothing of the last couple of minute. In fact it took my mind a couple of minutes to register what had happened before the black out. I think we were affected by sleeping gas but how did we end up inside? I wondered.
Next to me, I hear a quiet moan. Phineas had just woken up, he was rubbing his head. Looking around, clearly confused. Was he hurt?
"You okay Phineas?" I asked, slightly worried about my step brother,
"Fine." Phineas muttered. Still rubbing his head, and not looking at me. "What happened?" Phineas asked me
"I do not know. Let's go check outside and make sure everything is alright." I suggested, struggling to get back up to my feet. I helped Phineas up to his feet and we hurry outside as fast as we could right now.
When we get outside, everything seems fine. I gave a sigh of relief then I hear the snarling and yelp.
"Did you hear that?" I asked. Wishing the answer was no and I was imagining things because I was not fully in it.
But Phineas nodded his head yes, clearly troubled.
"Let's go check it out." Phineas said running towards the noise. I followed without saying anything.
Phineas POV
I had no idea what we would find as we rounded the corner. In fact, my mind was mostly focus on what had just happened in the last couple of minutes. Finally, after what seemed like an entirety. We were able to see what was going on. It made my heart skip a beat.
A robot dog was snarling, at least I think it was a robot, over our pets. His eyes gleaming with anger. I risk a look down at Lily and Perry. Lily was in front of Perry, snarling back at the dog. Perry was at her side, chattering angrily. I knew Perry might try to help but he is a platypus. They do not do much at all. As for Lily… well let's say Lily could become lunch fairly quickly.
I glance at Ferb. He looked back me, clearly just as worried. He grabbed something out of his pocket. When did Ferb get a laser? I thought but then pushed it away. How cares?
I watched Ferb point his laser at the mutt. The mutt growled at us, not wanting to be shot by the laser. He threw a last glare at our pets before running away. I was guessing the dog was to beat up to try and fight and anymore.
My brother and I turned our attentions to our pets. Without even looking over them we pick up both of them. I grab Perry while Lily was carried by Ferb. We hurry inside, not knowing if that dog would come back, or worse. We did not even speak until we were back upstairs.
When we got up into our room, we sat our pets down and looked over them. They were both dead asleep. Too tired to even speak or offer an explanation as to what happened.
At first I was shocked at the state of Lily's leg. It looked like a horrible mess of torn skin and blood. I said nothing as Ferb and I cleaned off the leg and bandage it up.
It was nothing more than a bad bite. I sighed silently in relief. At least Lily would be alright. She was still asleep when we finished on her leg. Then we turned our attention to Perry. He seemed pretty good, just battered and scratched. We patched up bad scratches and gently cleaned the worst scratches with a washcloth. Just like we did to Lily's leg but with a different washcloth.
Finally we were done treating both pets. I knew there was nothing more we could do for them then to let them sleep. We sneak slowly out of Ferb's and my room. None of us spoke until we were back downstairs. We did not dare go back outside. We had enough excitement for one day. Besides, somehow, the blueprints were inside with them so they had no reason to go outside.
"Ferb why did that dog come here? Why did it attack Perry and Lily? What was point?" I asked.
"We know nothing about Lily or her history. She might have a bad past. Which might explain a lot. Why she hates people, why she hates talking about her past, everything." Ferb murmured.
Though I did not want to believe Lily might have done something bad in the past, I knew Ferb was right. That seemed most likely. I mean why would Perry have an enemy? He is a platypus!
"I do not think Lily did anything." Ferb muttered, almost as if he read my thoughts. "We just might have to be more careful from now on. Maybe we could try talking to Lily again, after this blows over."
I knew what he meant by 'this' And I could understand why to wait on asking. With nothing else to do, Ferb and I end up watching TV, relaxing and doing nothing of importance for the rest of the day. Candace came in on us once in the day asking what we were doing. We explained what happened and she left us alone after that.
I had no idea why but somewhere inside of me, this event was screaming at me. Telling me that danger was near…
