Chapter 3

"Morning Ferb!" Phineas said when he woke up. "Maybe this time it's October." He ripped the calendar page and it was still September.

"Dang it, still September." He shrugged. "Oh well, come on Ferb let's get ready for breakfast." The boys got prepared for the day and went downstairs.

"Morning boys." Their mom greeted as they came downstairs. "Breakfast is on the table."

"Morning mom, morning dad." Phineas said. He then petted his pet. "Morning Perry, so glad you are not repeating this day twice like I am." Perry chattered. The boys sat in their spots and ate their morning Cornflakes.

"Here's the bus boys." Lynda told them.

"Okay thanks mom!" The boys got their backpacks and left.

"Bye mom, dad, and Perry." Perry walked outside.

"Oh look Ferb." Phineas said as they were about to board. "Perry wants to say goodbye to us. Bye Perry!" The platypus chattered as the boy waved to him. He put his arm down and walked on the bus with his stepbrother. "What a good platypus we have." The doors closed and took off.

Perry went to agent mode and put on his hat. He got out his jetpack, strapped it on, and followed the bus.

When Perry reached his owners' school, he landed in the bushes. He took of his jetpack and headed into the building.

Inside, he saw Phineas and Ferb say goodbye to each other and go their separate ways. He looked for signs of the cafeteria, he couldn't find it.

Perry was searching on all fours until he saw legs. He looked up, a grown female human with curly brown hair and red glasses stood before him.

"What are you doing here?" She asked. Perry just chattered. She picked him up and headed for the doors.

"School's no place for a platypus like you. When passing time comes, your tail might get stepped on." She stroked him until they went outside. "And we don't want that to happen do we now?" She placed him on the ground, took his hat, and examined it.

"Hmm I wonder how this fedora came upon your head. Oh well, I'll take this to the lost and found." She walked away and stopped when Perry followed. She turned and petted him.

"No you stay here." She told him. "Don't want to see you get trampled from those students." She went into the building.

What will Perry do? He wasn't allowed in school, yet he had to go in. He had to help Phineas and get his hat back. But in order for that to happen, he had to disguise himself as a student. Oh what can he possibl… Then the platypus got an idea, he quickly went to the window with a locker room inside.

"EEEEAAK!' Girls cried out, screaming and running out of the locker room. "A platypus!" As they all left, Perry opened an unlock locker, and put his disguise on. Lipstick was on bench; he shrugged and put it on the outside of his bill. He then coughed; it was the worst thing he out on his bill! He put the lid back on and put it down and went out of the locker room.

"Girls settle down." Perry heard the woman's voice again. "Now I'll go check but I doubt a platypus would just walk in our school like this. They're more common in Austeria you know." Perry heard her footsteps then she saw him.

"Oh hello there." She greeted coming by his side. "Are you new? I've never seen you before." She grabbed his hand and dragged him away. "Come on; let's go get you settled in." Perry tried to get free, but the woman had a firm grasp on him.

"Now girls," She told them. "Get back in there and change, there's no platypus in there and if they are they are more afraid of you then you are afraid of them." They went upstairs as the girls went back to the locker room.

"Here we are." The lady said once they were in the main office. She bent down and let go of his hand. "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself. I am Mrs. Shelby and I'm the principal of Dansvale Middle. Now what's your name?" Perry didn't speak. Mrs. S stood up.

"Oh you can't speak?" She then got a pad and pen and gave it to him. "Can you write your name down for me instead?"

Perry looked fir a way out, but there were staff everywhere. He was trapped, so he had no chose but write his name down. He thought a moment, and then wrote something down.

When done he showed it to her.

"Oh, Paris?" she read out loud. The platypus nodded.

"Well welcome to our school Paris. Since you can't speak, you'll need special services. Is your mom around?" She looked around, then back at Perry.

"Can you give me your mom's phone number Paris?" Perry wrote something down and showed it to her. It read "I don't have a mom or a dad."

"Oh you poor dear, are you in an orphanage?" Perry shook his head.

"Okay, well come on dear." She led Perry out of the office. She and Perry went down the hall until Monogram noticed them.

"Hi Charlotte." He greeted.

"Oh say Monogram, this is Paris. She's new and can't speak. Can you keep an eye on her while I go talk to special services?"

"Oh sure, I'll be happy too."

"Thanks." She bent down to Perry.

""Okay dear; I'm going to talk to the head teacher of special services, stay with Monogram until I get back." She left and Perry wrote something down.

"Okay fallow me Paris. We're dissecting frogs today. Won't that be fun?" He tapped Monogram and showed the notepad to him.

"Agent P?" He looked at him. "But how can you be…" The platypus sighed and showed the major his tail. Monogram burst out laughing.

"Where did you get that lipstick from, Lipsticks are Us?" Perry rolled his eyes. "Oh Agent P, where do you get all of your ridiculous disguises? This is like the time when you were dressed in that circus outfit with the coconut bra!" He fell to the floor laughing. Perry glared at him. Phineas came out of the room.

"Hey Mr. MM, why are you deriding a new student?" He then looked mad. "Just because she has a disability does not mean you can mock and make fun of her! Sheech, I was sure you would've known that!" Monogram stood up.

"I am not mocking hi… I mean her, I would never make fun of another student; how dare you even accuse me of it. Now get back in class!" Phineas put an arm around Perry as they reentered the room.

"I'll be your partner if you want Paris. Just write down what you want to tell me on your notepad, and I'll do it!" When Isabella heard this, she narrowed her eyes.

"I'll go get the frog." As Phineas went to get the supplies they needed, Perry checked his surroundings. Suddenly, Isabella got in his face. She wasn't happy.

"Look here Paris!" She told him. "I can see you are disabled and all but that doesn't mean you can hog Phineas all to yourself okay? He's mine I tell you, all mine and no one else's. You hear?!" Perry just looked at her and gulped. Isabella wouldn't pick a fight with him, would she? Perry shivered in panic.

"Hay, you're just like Suzy!" Buford observed. "Always want a boy all to yourself." Isabella's mood quickly changed when Phineas returned.

"I'm back Paris." Phineas told the disguised platypus. "I got the stuff and the dead frog, so let's get to work." They were about to work when they heard screams.

"LIVE FROG!!" They all hid.

"Get him Paris!" Phineas said when Agent F leapt towards them. Perry sighed but managed to grab the slippery frog. The class cheered.

"You're a hero Paris!" Phineas congratulated him. Then the class picked Perry up and chanted,

"PARIS, PARIS, PARIS, PAR…" The bell sounded. The kids put Perry down gently then rushed to their next classes.

"Well bye Paris!" Phineas waved. "It was sure great to meet you, bye!" He raced for his next class.

"Agent P." Monogram said to him once the boy was gone. He chucked. "Or should I say Paris." Perry eyed him. "Okay, Agent P is fine. So, I must one congratulate you for saving Agent F before that bully looking kid squashed him with his foot, and two, continue to be on the lookout for that mystery food item." Perry saluted. "Good now, go!" Perry raced off; he didn't stop even when he heard his boss burst out laughing one last time.

"Okay Phineas." The boy said to himself as he combed his hair in line in the gym where pictures were being taken. "You'll look great in this photo. Relax!" He took a breath and out when he put his comb away.

"Next!" The man called when the previous kid got his things. Phineas went forward and handed the man his form.

"Stand over there." The man went behind the camera Phineas did what he was told to, turned to face the camera and smiled.

"Okay, 1, 2, say che…"

"Wait!" Phineas cried when he saw the boy with his lunch trey." Slow down kid!"

The kid turned around.

"Huh, what?" He asked.

"You need to slow down!" The kid nodded, slowed his pace, but then bumped into the wall. He fell into the garbage can as food and mud spattered all over Phineas as the picture took.

"Dang it, not again!"

"Sorry kid." The man said. The…"

"Films out?" The man looked confused.

"Yeah so…"

"So you'll be back tomorrow?" Phineas sighed. "Okay whatever." He went to his next class. The man was confused, shrugged his soldiers, and began to pack up.

"Hay Mom." Phineas said that evening. "Was Perry at the grocery store with you?" Lynda looked confused.

"No." She answered. "Why would he be? Pets aren't allowed in the stores." Phineas shrugged.

"Just wondering." Lynda went to her bag.

"Thanks for the muffin Mom." She looked confused again.

"Okay, lucky guess I guess." She handed the kids muffins. They each took one. Lynda sat at the table.

"Candace taxed in class today Mom." The teenager's jaw dropped.

"Hay!" She snapped. "Busting is…"

"Your job and your job only?"

"Uh yeah and…"

"We're not too young to snitch sis."

"How you know what I'm going to say."

"I just know sis and no I didn't get a job as fortune teller and mind reader."

"Okay that's just weird!"

"Yes it is Candace, yes it is." They took a bite of their muffins then went upstairs.

"Night mom, dad, sis, and Perry!"

"Night boys!" Lynda called.

As daughter and mom were having their conversation, Perry took the pill again. Tomorrow (Or today), he would go check the cafeteria. He was never going to humiliate himself like that again!
