Chapter 03 Chilling Like a Villain
Quanktumspirit: "Please review."
Today, nothing special was planned for Heinz Doofenshmirtz. He was just sitting back in his lounge chair and reading the newspaper.
All of a sudden, his doorbell rang. Heinz blinked, he knew it couldn't be Perry because today was his day off. And he hasn't ordered anything.
Heinz walked up to his door and opened it, he found a package with his address on it.
"That's strange. I haven't ordered anything," Heinz wondered.
He walked inside and opened it up. Inside, he found a videotape with the LOVEMUFFIN sign printed on it.
"A LOVEMUFFIN meeting?" Heinz questioned himself.
He opened up his TV and placed the recorder inside it. Indeed, the LOVEMUFFIN logo came up and then showed Heinz that it was Dr Bloodpudding.
"Hello Heinz, sorry that we have to record this message. Anyway, do you remember the big LOVEMUFFIN competition we held last month?" Dr Bloodpudding asked at the camera.
"Yes," Heinz answered, not understanding anything.
"Well, our surveillance cameras show you have had the most battles against Agent Perry the Platypus, so you have won. Your prize is a day at the Danville Spar. LOVEMUFFIN has taken it captive and booked you a full day there. Enjoy." Dr Bloodpudding said, and the recorder then stopped.
Heinz smiled, he was also happy that he didn't have to pick Vanessa up for anything. So Heinz packed in his towel and a swimming costume, before driving down to the Danville Spar.
A while later, Heinz arrived at the Spa, he showed his LOVEMUFFIN passport and was led inside the luxurious hotel.
First, he changed into his swimming costume, and then Heinz decided to go for a dip in the swimming pool. He walked down to the pool area and had his shower first, then he walked to the 11-meter pool and jumped head first into it.
Heinz did a few laps and stretched his muscles out in the pool. As Heinz came up, he looked around the pool, it was normally filled with various guests as well.
Heinz climbed out and chose then to jump from the 3-meter platform. As he got up there Heinz blinked, he could see all over the Spar and Heinz noticed a small, teal-colored guest over by the sun banks.
'Perry? ' Heinz asked himself confused.
"Hey, Granddad, are you going to jump?" A guest behind him snapped.
Heinz shook himself out of his dazzle, "Sorry, I was just looking for a friend of mine."
Quickly Heinz went into his jumping pose, jumped from the platform and landed in the water perfectly. He came back up and heard various guests applaud for his diving skills.
Heinz shook his head and climbed back out of the pool, making sure his trunks were still on. He emptied the water from his ears, gave a quick bow and then scanned the guests again.
'Where is that teal colored?- Ah. ' Heinz thought and then spotted the man again.
Heinz walked to his stuff and sat on the beach towel for a short while. Now that Heinz could see, he could actually make out what that 'Perry-look-alike' looks like.
It was a young man, about 20 to 30 years old. He was slim, has teal-coloured hair and looks natural, was about the same height as himself and was wearing some blue trunks. And to Heinz's surprise, that man was walking right up to him.
"Hi, you must be the 3-meter-long jumper, good job." The man praised him and shook his hand.
Heinz turned a bit red, "Yeah, my first jump, actually. My name is Heinz Doofenshmirtz, who are you? Have we met before?"
But the man shook his head, "I don't think so. I am only in Danville for a holiday. I come all the way from Australia."
"Oh... Well, it is just you reminded me of a good friend of mine. He's Australian and has teal-coloured hair as well," Heinz explained. "In fact, teal is one of my favorite color as well."
"Oh, where are my manners, sorry sir. My name is Patrick Allan. I'll be in Danville for a 6-day holiday. But sadly, I only booked the hotel for 1 day and now have nowhere to go," Patrick explained.
Heinz smiled a bit, 'Why is my heart feeling warm and this man reminding me of Perry the Platypus?'
"Well, sir, you can stay for the rest of your holiday at my house if you wish," Heinz suggested and stretched his hand out.
Patrick blinked and shook his hand as well, "Really? I don't mean to be a bother," Patrick said, unsure.
"No worries at all. Take it as my way of thanking you," Heinz said. "I'll be leaving here at about 5 PM so meet me at that time at the exit, ok? And enjoy the rest of your day."
Patrick nodded, "I sure will, and thank you again."
Heinz smiled as he went off to have another swimming time. He walked carefully into the pool and swam a few laps. After his 4th lap, he saw Patrick entering the pool as well and swam next to him.
The man smiled over at him and swam at a good speed next to him, Heinz chuckled, the 4 days will be good for the two men.
Quanktumspirit: "I actually didn't want to include an OC character in this tale. But reading the next 5 prompts gave me the idea of Patrick. And the reason he looks so much like 'Perry in human form is so Heinz can get along with him. Please review."
