I don't own Phineas and Ferb.
Ch. 5: Small World
"I think it's over." Phineas said, as he stuck his head out from the hatch. As Phineas looked around, he saw that the weather had cleared and the water's were better. Perry had climbed down from the top of the mast and quickly switched into pet mode when he saw Phineas.
"Grrrrldlrdlrldldrdrld" chattered Perry.
Phineas turned and saw Perry. "Oh there you are Perry. We were worried sick about you, but I knew you'd be okay." Phineas picked him up and started petting him as everyone came up from below deck.
"Well, that was unpleasant." said Baljeet. "Where are we? You never said were those rapids would take us."
"Oh yeah. They head to the same place, but for some reason, we keep getting interrupted. So we don't become victims of a tired joke, why don't we let you look at the map for yourself." suggested Phineas as he handed Baljeet the giant map.
He opened the map and looked at it. "Oh now I see. In retrospect, I probably should have known by the surroundings. It seems that we-"
"No wait don't Baljeet!" warned Phineas.
"What? I was just going to say that we are in-"
WHOOOSH!
A huge gust of wind blew the map off the ship and went flying like a kite. Unfortunately, Blajeet was holding onto the map, so he soared kite-like as well.
"AHHHHHHH!" screamed Baljeet.
Phineas sighed and said, "That was predictable. We better man-"
"Ooh, can I say it?" Grandpa Clyde asked.
"Um, okay." Phineas said.
"MAN THE LIFEBOATS! I've always wanted to say that." he smiled.
"Oh, now get it. Um Grandpa, if it's alright, why don't you and Grandma stay here with Perry just in case we run into more trouble like before. That way you can man the cannons in case of trouble." said Phineas.
"Hey! I wanted to fire a cannon." whined Buford.
"Fine, you can stay too,"
After waving to their grandparents, everyone got in the lifeboat and rowed to shore. They arrived at a beach crawling with people sunbathing and playing in the water half an hour later.
"Wow, this looks great. I wish we could spend the rest of the week here." Isabella asked.
"As tempting as that sounds, we are on a schedule and we still need to find Baljeet. Besides, Ferb and I have been here before." Phineas reminded.
"Really, what did you do here? You never mentioned coming here."
Phineas and Ferb looked at each other nervously and replied "Um, we didn't do much here. Nothing too exciting." lied Phineas.
"Oh that's too bad. *Gasp* Look, over there." said Isabella. Isabella pointed to a lifeguard station nearby.
"Nice work Isabella." thanked Phineas.
"Thanks." she said dreamily.
Everyone headed to the life guard station and entered. The minute they walked in, they saw Baljeet with his head stuck in the map and covered with paper cuts. A man was getting a first aid kit.
"Baljeet!" Phineas said.
"Phineas! Ferb! Thank goodness you found me. I was worried that you would never find me." he said.
"Well we did. So mister, how is he?" Phineas asked.
"He's *snap* okay!" said a familiar voice.
"Hon, who are you talking to?" said a female voice.
As the woman came in, Phineas recognized the two instantly. The man was Bob Webber, or as he preferred to be called "Captain Webber". Captain Webber was a decent looking man who had a blue captain's hat, blue shorts, a black belt, and a white captain's shirt. Even though he was head lifeguard, he looked like a cruise director.
The woman was wearing a red lifeguard uniform and white shorts with beautiful long, red hair. She was known as Tiana Webber, Phineas and Ferb's aunt and Captain Webber's wife.
"Aunt Tiana!" said Phineas.
"Phineas? What are you guys doing here?" said Tiana.
"I think the better question is what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be on your honeymoon?"
"Does anyone want to know why I'm here?" Baljeet asked.
"You were blown away while holding the map, and landed in the water, and I guess Aunt Tiana and Captain Webber saved me." Phineas guessed.
"... Yes, but it sounds boring the way you say it." said Baljeet.
"Correction. That's Uncle Captain Webber." corrected Bob.
"Right, Uncle Captain Webber. Sorry. So shouldn't you guys be on an awesome adventure?" Phineas asked.
"Well, adventures aren't cheap, so I'm here working in the summer as Head Lifeguard and um guy who hires people, I never did learn the name." explained Bob.
Tiana continued, "But we didn't want to have jobs were we're apart, so I applied for a job here and Bob said-"
"*snap* Okay!"
"Awww, how romantic." said Isabella.
"Yes, however we may have to find new ones." she said.
"Why?" Phineas asked.
"Um, hello, I still have my head stuck in a map and unattended paper cuts." reminded Baljeet. Phineas easily removed the map from Baljeet. "Thank you."
"Anyway, we only applied to be summer lifeguards, so with summer ending we'll be out of a job." said Tiana.
"Don't worry, I'm sure you two will find some jobs and everything will be okay." said Phineas.
"No, it's not *snap* okay. I'm kinda picky about my jobs. I have specific requirements." explained Bob.
"Well, what made you decide to work here?"
"Well, it's beautiful, gorgeous, and I'm just naturally attracted to it. But enough about my wife, I came here because it was a beautiful lake, the snow globes were nice, and mostly because there was excitement. I got to protect people from drowning and what not. I thought there would be something thrilling like saving someone. I wanted excitement and danger. Plus, I like working with people and kids. I need a job that provides exercise, fun, and energetic. Not to mention, somewhere I can work with Tiana." he explained.
"Awwww.' said Isabella.
"Wow. That's a LOT of requirements." said Phineas. Ferb poked Phineas to try and get his attention.
"Huh? What is it Ferb?" he asked. Ferb leaned in and whispered something in his ear. "That's a great idea." said Phineas.
"What is?" Tiana asked.
"Well, the reason we're here is because our parents want to move because of the schools closing down, so we're trying to find people who would make great teachers for our super school we're building. And Ferb reminded me that we are in need of some P.E. teachers. You know, people who teach kids how to be fit and healthy. You'd being social, with kids, and getting exercise. How does that sound?" Phineas said.
"...*snap* OKAY!" said Bob.
"Yeah, that sounds great." said Tiana.
"Awesome, you want to come with us back to Danville on our pirate ship?" Phineas asked.
"Is that slang for something?" Bob asked.
"No. No it's not." Phineas said.
"*snap* Okay." said Bob.
After they took care of a few personal things, Bob and Tiana went with Phineas, Ferb and Isabella in the lifeboat and rowed to the ship.
"Wow, I can see why you guys like it here. The crystal blue water, the gentle breeze, the splash of the waves, it's perfect." said Phineas. "Except..."
"What?" Bob asked.
"...Nothing" said Phineas.
As they continued to row in awkward silence, with the pirate ship within shouting distance, not too far away was barely visible robot that resembled that bug that glides on water (I don't know the name of it) but it had a small cramp space and 6 wire like legs, and being steered by Dr. Diminuative.
"Huh that Poo poo guys was right. But unlike him, I'll going with the good old kidnapping." said Dr. Diminuative.
As he neared the boat, He raised one of the legs and reached for the boys.
Out of the corner of Phineas' eye, he saw the wire sized leg, thanks to his 90-90 vision.
"Ferb, look out!" Phineas said as he pushed Ferb out of the way. Instead of grabbing them both, it grabbed Phineas instead and squeezed him hard.
"PHINEAS!" yelled Isabella.
The bug pod opened revealing Dr. Diminuative, as the arm threw Phineas into the seat adjacent to him.
"You're coming with me." said Dr. Diminuative.
"Nooo!" Baljeet yelled. The pod door closed and dove into the water.
"What was that?" Tiana asked.
"I don't know. Ferb, what are we going to do?" Isabella asked.
Ferb's face turned serious. He stuck his head to the water, and started making weird noises.
"AAWOOOO, eek ekk, loo loo, grraahh!" he chattered.
"... Anyone else have a better plan?" Baljeet asked.
The boat reached the ship and everyone climbed up to the main deck.
"Mr. and Mrs. Flynn, Phineas was just kidnapped by a tiny scientist in a bug pod. By the way, we found some people to help." said Baljeet as Tiana and Bob climbed up.
"Tiana?" said Betty Jo.
"Mom?" Tiana said.
"Tiana?" asked Grandpa Clyde.
"Dad?" Tiana said again.
"Tiana?" Bob asked.
"Bob?" asked Clyde
"Bob?" asked Betty Jo.
"BUFORD!" said Buford.
While everyone was distracted, Perry dove off the ship and swam after the pod. Lucky for him, the pod was visible underwater. Perry swam as fast as he could after the pod. He used all his strength to try and keep up with the pod. As he was inches away...
WHAM!
Perry was struck from behind. He looked behind him to see the Koi fish that Major Monogram recruited earlier during the summer. They helped him stop Dr. Doofenshmirtz from filling the Danville Street Fair with the smell of dirty diapers, but now they were ready to capture him.
While Perry fought the crazy Koi fish, Phineas was banging on the glass.
"HAH! Don't bother. That glass is 6 layers thick. Bullets can't even break it." he mocked.
"Why are you doing this? I don't even know you." said Phineas.
"I'm using you as bait."
"For who?"
"Who else? Your platypus."
"Perry? But he's just a platypus, he doesn't do much."
"Oh don't be coy with me."
Outside, Perry was fighting the fast fish as best as he could. He punched one of them and one of their hats came off. Perry grabbed it and pointed it at the fish. In an instant, a giant fish net was fired and caught them in a net.
Back on the ship, Ferb was still making the weird noises.
"EeeeOOO EEEEOOOO Gloop gloop." he uttered.
"Is he okay?" Grandpa Clyde asked.
"Well he is British?" Buford said.
"What does that have to do with this?" Baljeet asked.
"What? They're weird. They have emu curses for pete's sake."
Little did they know, Ferb was sending a special message to a friend. As the bug pod made it's escape, something was following it.
"Why are you so interested in Perry?" Phineas asked.
"I'm not. The leader of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. is." said Dr. Diminuative.
"L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.? What is that? Wait, Khaka said that too."
"Duh, he's apart of it too. Along with some other villains who want to take over the Tri- State Area."
"And you need Perry?"
"Yes. Because-"
Whooosh!
"What was that?" Phineas said.
"What was what?" Dr. Diminuative asked. He looked to see what Phineas meant.
WHOOSH!
"GAH! What was that?" Dr. Diminuative. He turned to Phineas and saw him smiling. "And why are you so happy?"
"Because back-up just arrived." Phineas replied.
Back outside, Perry was about to leave the fish, knowing that they would break out eventually. Then, a green blur swam behind Perry. He caught a glimpse and saw a giant beast swim by. Perry had heard legends about him, but he didn't believe them. He had just seen the one agent Major Monogram could never recruit: Agent N.
He knew the Koi fish were in trouble, so Perry swam back to them and started untying the net. Agent N swam closer and Perry tried going faster. Perry untied the knot and freed the fish. Perry could see the pod getting away and saw Agent N swim toward them.
Perry got an idea, he dove underneath the gigantic beast and grabbed hold of it's tail. He saluted the fish as he hung on the tail of Agent N.
Back in the pod, Dr. Diminuative was getting scared.
"Alright, I don't know what that is, but I am getting out of here!"
He thrusted the steering wheel forward and tried to go faster.
CRUNCH!
The pod stopped as the beast caught it in his mouth. From the window, Dr. Diminuative quaked in fear as he saw the eye of the beast.
"Hey big guy, long time no see." said Phineas.
Perry let go of the tail and swam to the pod. He grabbed onto it and tried to smash the glass.
Then, the beast put the entire pod into its mouth.
Back on the ship, everyone was still trying to figure out what to do.
"We could try and determine where the pod went." suggested Baljeet.
"We could look up all tiny scientists in the Tri-State Area." suggested Isabella.
"We could push the town somewhere else." suggested Buford.
"Buford, that's completely irrelevant and you got them from a cartoon didn't you?" Baljeet asked.
"Yes, yes I did."
"Wait, what's that?" said Tiana, referring to the bubbles rising to the surface.
"Phineas?" said Isabella.
PTEW!
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" screamed Dr. Diminuative as he was shot out of the water like a bullet. Following him, the beast rose from the water and towered over the ship.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!" everyone screamed.
"I don't believe it. He IS real." said Tiana.
"The snowglobes are true." said Bob.
Everyone froze in terror as it faced Ferb with his mouth inches from his face. Ferb didn't flinch, he wasn't even scared.
The beast opened its huge mouth and... Phineas walked out unharmed with Perry.
"PHINEAS!" yelled Isabella.
"Hey guys. Sorry about the scare, but don't worry, Nosey here saved me." Phineas said.
Phineas carried Perry out of Nosey's mouth. Even Perry was surprised to see that Nosey, or Agent N, was friends with Phineas. As Phineas exited the mouth, Nosey, chewed up the pod and swallowed it.
"Phineas are you okay? How did you-" Tiana asked.
"Don't worry. Nosey here won't hurt you. He only eats things with zinc, so he won't hurt us. He doesn't want people to know about him, so can you guys not tell anyone about him?" Phineas asked. Everyone nodded, while Baljeet fainted.
"Thanks. It's okay Nosey, they won't tell anyone. Your secrets safe." Phineas said as he patted Nosey.
"Um, not to ruin this moment, but would it be *snap* okay, if Tiana and I did something with Nosey?" Bob asked. He whispered something into Phineas' ear.
"Oh sure, he won't mind."
Ten minutes later...'
"WHOOO-HOOOO" yelled Tiana, as they water-skiied. The rope was tied to the ship, which was being pulled by Nosey.
"You know, at this rate, we should be home by dinner time." said Phineas.
"Good, at least that's the last of those weirdos." said Isabella.
"No. No it's not. He said that there were more, and I think our trouble is just beginning."
"Dun dun dun." said Buford.
