Chapter 3

Phineas and Ferb got right to work. Their sister, Candace, looked out the window of her room.

"What are those two doing now?" she muttered to herself. She raced outside and saw the two putting together some sort of small gadget.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

Phineas answered simply, "Hey, Candace. You're in our dream too! We're trying to get Perry's 'G-g-g-g-g' back."

Candace turned to look at Perry who was laid back against the tree watching all the action.

"What dream? What did you do to him!? Where did he get the hat?" Candace said.

Perry stood up on his hind legs. This shocked Candace. He slowly said, "Okay, Candace. Now before you freak out, I just want to-"

Candace's voice shook as she said, "H-how do you know my name? Why are you talking!? You're a platypus, you don't do much! What's with the hat!? AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!"

Candace started running around in circles screaming, "DEMON PLATYPUS! DEMON PLATYPUS! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

Perry gracefully leapt up onto Candace's shoulders grabbed her arms, flipped around and held her hands behind her back.

"Okay. Take a deep breath. Calm down," he said gently. Candace breathed frantically in a panting motion. Perry let go of her.

"Whoa. Now that was cool," Phineas said.

"Now let me explain, Candace. I…"

Perry explained the whole story. Candace looked overwhelmed at the whole thing.

"So you're really a secret agent?" Candace breathed.

"Yes, but remember, this all just a crazy dream. Once you go to bed, you'll wake up from it and it will all be over with," Perry stated.

"So this is a dream huh? Let me just test it first."

Candace ran down the street. She stopped at one of the houses and rang the doorbell. Jeremy opened the door.

"Hey, Candace. What's up?" he asked kindly. Candace tried to look her sweetest. She clutched her hands together and stretched her arms downward.

"So, Jeremy," she started. "Was there anything you wanted to ask me?"

"Um, I don't think so," Jeremy said looking confused.

"Are you sure? Something important?" Candace batted her eyelashes.

Jeremy shook his head. "But if you-"

Candace slammed the door in his face and ran back up the street and into her yard.

"Hah! This is not a dream! If it were a dream, Jeremy would have asked me to marry him. Do you know what this means?" Candace proclaimed. Perry blinked a couple of times.

"It means you'll grow old and live alone in an apartment with a bunch of cats and be single for the rest of your life because you can't get a job and your breath smells bad?" Perry asked.

Candace gasped and covered her mouth.

"You know, I'm glad you guys are getting rid of his voice after all," she said with a muffled voice. She took her hand off her mouth.

"No. It means that you are so BUSTED, Perry the Platypus! I'm calling Mom!" Candace shouted. She ran back inside the house. She dialed the number.

"Mom!" she yelled.

"I'm at the grocery store, Candace. I can't come home right now to see whatever Phineas and Ferb are doing this time," her mom said.

"But it's not Phineas and Ferb this time, Mom! It's Perry! He's talking! Here, I'll explain later! Just hurry up!" Candace cried.

"Okay, Honey. I'll see you soon." Her mom hung up.

Outside, Phineas and Ferb were still hard at work. Phineas said, "You know, Perry. Being a secret agent and a pet that supposedly doesn't do much is pretty neat. It's like the best of both worlds, isn't it? Hey, that gives me an idea for a song."

Ferb started a beat.

(I do not own the tune or idea of song, just changed lyrics).

You get the get the jet plane out back.

Parachutes, gadgets, work undercover,

Yea, being secret it can be kind of fun

Cause it's you and no one ever discovers

In some way you're just like all those pets

But secretly you're a spy-y-y-y-y! Shhhh!

He gets the best of both worlds!

From just lying around,

To saving the whole town

He gets the best of both worlds

Mix it all together and

you know he's got the best of both worlds!

"Take it, Perry!" Phineas sang. Perry stared at him.

"You know, I'm not much of a singer let alone a talker. I also don't want you shouting my secret to the whole world."

"We don't have microphones though and I thought this was all just a dream."

"Um- it is, but trouble can happen in dreams too."

"Oh. Well, just sing the last part really quick. Keep up that beat, Ferb," Phineas directed.

Perry slowly sang,

You mix it all together

(Phineas) Oh yeah!

It's a whole lot better

when you know I've got the best of both worlds!

Perry smiled.

"See? That wasn't so bad was it?" Phineas said.

"No. Actually it was kind of fun. Yes. But don't ever make me do it again," Perry said.

"Deal."

Ferb put in, "Doesn't that song sound awfully familiar to you?"

"No, not really," Phineas said.

Oh, and thankies for the reviews, guys. ;)
