Lightning blasted the top of the Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated building, and an evil cackle filled the air. "Yes, Perry the Platypus! Now I will have you!"
"Wow, Ferb! Nice show, huh?" The brothers and their little group of friends were all laying back on lawn chairs, protected from the storm by a bubble of hyperconductive plastic. Electricity crackled around them, lighting the bubble after each strike. Candace was busy outside trying to find some sort of hook or hole to tie a rope through, muttering to herself as the rain poured down on her.
"Phineas...Ferb...bust...Mom...down, down, down..."
"Hey, where's Perry?" The strange little platypus had in fact wandered off again. He snuck out of the bubble through the only exit, slipping a brown fedora onto his head as he left earshot. He pulled three blades of crabgrass out of the front lawn and a tube shot out of the ground in between them. He stepped in and a slow rendition of Beethoven's 5th began playing.
The door popped open again and he stepped out, rushing to his seat in the midst of the secret lair. A familiar mustached face appeared on the huge monitor. "Greetings, Agent P. Sorry for calling you so late, but we're getting reports of cackling and mysterious lightning strikes around Doof's headquarters. The last time something quite that eery happened in known memory...well, Cleveland will never be the same for any of us again." The Major held up a teddy bear under his chin, staring blankly into the distance for almost a full minute. Perry checked his watch and the motion caught the man's attention. "Oh! Ahem...Anyway, go check on Doof, and apply thwarting as necessary. Monogram out."
Perry leapt from his chair, grabbing a jetpack from the rack and setting off.
Meanwhile on Kami's Lookout...
Dende's face was a portrait of worry. This thing...whatever it was, it was even stronger than Frieza had been. Mr. Popo stepped up behind him, his voice filled with concern.
"Dende...Are you alright?" Dende clenched the Guardian's staff.
"Yes, Mr. Popo. But I'm afraid that the Earth might not be. You were here when the Androids first struck, weren't you?"
"Yes. Why?"
"I feel there may be another one on it's way. And this whole thing is only going to get a whole lot worse if they don't do something."
Back at Doofenshmirtz Tower...
There was a knock on the door, and being the neighborly citizen he was, Doofenshmirtz cracked it open and peered around. As he closed the door, Perry the Platypus burst through the wall, flipping twice and landing in a kung fu pose.
"Really, Perry the Platypus? Really? I even opened the door for you, why can't you just use it?! Ah, never mind. Anyway, I suppose you're wondering why today's scheme is going down so late at night, so I'll tell you. I was looking through the video surveillance of all my old schemes, and I found a common denominator." Perry was feeling around the floor with his webbed feet, checking the air for laser traps. "Oh, heh. Don't worry about traps, Perry the Platypus. Didn't have time for any tonight. But back to my schemes. The commonality I found with all of my schemes was that none of them had any sort of defense except for me. That's why I have two Inators today. First off... BEHOLD, THE TIME JUMP-INATOR!" He pressed a button on a controller he had pulled from within his lab coat. A police box with a DeLorean standing on top of it was lowered from the ceiling. "It travels through time, allowing me to take over any prehistoric civilization I see fit. Dooftopia is at hand! And, as a fix to my chronic security issue, BEHOLD, THE PERFECT FIGHT-INATOR!" He mashed the other button and a robot that resembled a buffed up, 1:1.5 scale robot form of Heinz Doofenshmirtz himself. "It uses a power core designed from the best parts of my old Inators, and an AI downloaded from some guy's home-made supercomputer. I think his name was Boxers...no...no, it was Briefs! Yeah, some guy named Briefs. Real genius, this guy. Anyway, just try and thwart me." Perry shrugged and took off for the Time Jump-inator. Just as he come within ten feet of it, the Perfect Fight-inator skidded in front of him, blocking his path. He leapt up, aiming a roundhouse kick at it's head. His foot clanged off the metal head and it reached up, grabbing his foot.
"You see, Perry the Platypus? This new Inator is truly unbeatable! With his help, I will be able to rule the Tri-State Area without a hitch!" The machine threw Perry aside like a ragdoll and turned to it's creator.
"There are no challenges here. I will return with a challenge." Without another word, it lifted off and was gone into the night sky. Doof stared after it, a blank look on his face.
"Huh. I need to remember to thumbs-down that Briefs guy."
Back in Danville...
The conductive bubble had shut down mysteriously almost five minutes ago, and Ferb was still hard at work on the circuit board. None of them had thought to check the power grid until suddenly the ground beneath them began to shake.
"Ummm...Ferb, we might need to check the stabilizers." The brothers rushed out the exit where Candace was waiting for them, not allowing her hands to leave the ball.
"Look, you two. At least keep this thing still. How am I supposed to bust you if I can't even make sure this thing stays in one place?"
"Working on it!" The boys rushed past her and were greeted to the sight of a very large, very angry looking pharmacist robot. "Ferb...You didn't install a seek and destroy security system on this thing, did you?" The taller brother shook his head. "Right. Didn't think so. That being said, we might consider running." They turned around and did just that.
"Where are you punks going?" The bros didn't even bother answering. They swung around the corner, their panting letting everyone know that it was time to clear out.
On Kami's Lookout...
"So, there's another android?" Dende nodded, sweat beading on his forehead.
"But this one wasn't built by Doctor Gero. In fact, it's not even on this world." Vegeta rolled his eyes.
"Then why is it our problem? We have enough trouble saving this world every three years." Dende shook his head.
"You don't understand. It's more powerful than anything you've ever encountered. Even Buu wasn't this strong." This seemed to pique a bit more interest in both of them, Goku especially.
"Wow, really? Oh, man, I can't wait to get a look at him. I wonder if he'll be willing to go a few rounds?"
"I don't think you'll have to worry about that. He's determined to find and destroy the highest power levels he can, and he's learning rapidly. He's already taken out the strongest forces on his own world, and I can only assume he'll be coming here next. Unfortunately, he might just try to keep looking there, and that would result in the complete destruction of their world."
"So you want us to get up there and stop him, is that it?" Dende nodded. "Hm. Fine, just give me some directions. Kakarot, go check and see if any of your little friends want to tag along." Goku nodded and pressed two fingers to his forehead. He focused on one point, and suddenly he was there.
"Hey, Piccolo! Vegeta and I are gonna go fight a new android. You in?" The Namekian opened his eyes, standing up straight.
"Another one? Sure. For some reason, beating up machines just doesn't get old."
