Chapter 8

Lily's POV

After Perry showed me his secret lair and I become a secret agent, nothing really exciting happened after that between Perry and me. I would walk with him into the base sometimes when he received his mission. I would tell him about what invention Phineas and Ferb were doing that day in case it might affect but past that, we never talked or interacted much. We were at least trusting each other now.

About a week later, Perry had no mission that day. I had strange feeling in myself that it was a bad sign, but I ignored it. Today was just going to be another Phineas and Ferb day.

I laid under the tree with Phineas and Ferb in their usual spots and Perry sitting more in front of the tree, closer to Phineas. I was sitting in the sun, letting the warmth of the sun soak into my grey fur. Phineas was just talking with Ferb. They had no idea what to do today.

Though there days were still big for kids, they were a bit carful when I got involved or Perry was involved. I suppose I cannot blame them after what happened but they could at least give us a chance! We did not plan to get hurt. Besides, there has been no sign of that stupid dog for a week, allowing me to push the experience out of my mind.

Phineas and Ferb did approach me once about the robot dog. I refused to answer any questions. In fact, I did not really know myself. Every time I thought about the dog. It plunged me further into confusion. But there was no need to think about that right now.

After Lunch, Isabella showed up. I opened my eyes at the sound of her voice. At that point in time, Phineas and Ferb had pulled out some blueprints.

"Hey Phineas. Hey Ferb." She greeted warmly, especially to Phineas. Though her voice was colder as she spoke to me. "Hey Lily."

"Hey Isabella." I greeted back, pulling myself into a sitting position. My voice was curt. Look, I know you do not like me. But can you at least try? I thought, almost spitting at the girl. It made me think about Pinky for a second. How funny that a pet and an owner think and act completely different.

That reminds, I should go and visit him today. If I get the chance. I thought. Pinky was my friend. Plus, I also learned he was a secret agent. That explained something. He had known about the spy thing the whole time. He must have suspected me at first but then saw my supposed kindness.

I must have missed the greetings because when I tuned in again. Phineas was talking to me.

"Lily? You okay?" I heard.

"Fine" I reply. "What is it?"

"I said what do you think we should do today." Phineas said, looking down at the options.

I looked at them for a moment before murmuring. "I think…

I was cut off by a laser beam coming out of nowhere and striking the backyard. I heard yelps of terror. I had no idea who said it.

At first I assumed it was Perry fighting his nemesis. But then I spotted the green creature. I meet his gaze. His own gaze was alight in terror. We were both thinking the same thing. What was that?

I looked up and what I saw, made my whole entire being freeze with terror.

Perry's POV

I spotted Doofenshmirtz hovercraft above the house. My blood ran cold. My whole entire instincts were to attack but with my owners' right there, what could I do? I almost expected Lily to do something but it looked as though she was just as helpless. After all, she was secret agent as well and needed to be careful about her own identity.

Another laser blast hit the backyard and it all went dark.

Isabella POV

"Phineas! Look out!" The next laser beam was heading straight for him. I raced for him and tackled him to the ground and away from the range of the laser. Ferb ran over, panting, actually showing an emotion. Fear.

"You two okay?" He asked us.

"I am okay." Phineas replied. Standing up and helping me up. "Thanks for saving me Isabella."

I would me risk my whole life for you Phineas. I almost said but I had to content myself my murmuring. "No problem. I did not want you to get hurt Phineas."

Phineas' POV

I blushed slight at Isabella before turning my attention back up toward the hovercraft. I did not know why this person was aiming for us. What did we do? I looked closely at the hovercraft.

Doofensmritz, Nope, does not ring a bell. I thought. Then, all of a sudden. The hovercraft lowered and aimed another laser beam at us. The three of us, Isabella, Ferb, and I, This one was a different color and did not hurt us as it made contact. It only picked us up and pulled us toward the hovercraft.

Tractor beam. I thought, looking over at Isabella and Ferb. The three of us started screaming for help, though I did not think anyone could hear us. The last thing I saw before I blacked out was Lily staring up us, with a knocked out Perry beside her.

Perry's POV

I did not know how long I was out for. In fact, my sense of time left me even as my vision started to focus and light once again. I could see Lily looking down at me, clearly worried. It took me a moment to recover my thoughts but I knew what had happened. My mission… I had failed.

"Lily, come on. We have to go rescue Phineas and Ferb." I mutter. Struggling once more to my feet.

"No way. You cannot go anywhere. I will go alone…" Lily began

"No, I am coming with you. I will not allow to go alone Lily. This is my fault anyway." I told her.

"How?" Lily asked, clearly wondering.

"A pet's responsibility, no matter of his or her past. Will protect who they care about. At the cost of their lives or their job in our case."

A/N

Short chapter with a lot happening I know. But hey, some more action happening right?

I know, it has been a month I think… Look, I had chapter nine all typed up but it is on my dad's computer and I need to get it off of there but I did not want to post this chapter yet. So in the end, I ended up just re-typing chapter nine at my mom's computer. Hey, I will have chapter 9 up this week, promise. Then the double digit chapter will come when I get around to it. The story itself might be more like 15 chapters for fair warning however.
