Alright, sorry for the wait! I'm also starting a one shot, I also didn't have computer access for the weekend cause I do this at school. lol I hope this was worth the wait.
Perry the platypus sat there close to his owners. He was proud of them. He was proud of everything they did all summer. He didn't know what he would do without them.
Just then he heard a sound from the TV in the other room. no one else heard it apparently. So he got up to check on what it was.
When he reached the room, he heard something that shook him a bit.
"This is a message for Other Dimension Perry the Platypus. If you turn yourself in, I promise not to hurt your little friends." the evil dictator of that dimension said as a picture of him and the boys from earlier that day flashed on the screen. Perry looked on at it as the man came back to finish his brief broadcast. "If you don't, all bets are off."
Perry looked at the screen a bit more. A sad expression came to his face. What now? He didn't want this crazy man to do anything harmful to the boys. He had to turn himself in? How would he do this? How would the boys take it? Phineas was already mad at him for having kept his secret all this time. What would he say if he had run off again? Would the boy even know what he was leaving for?
Another thought came to his head. The platyborg. Would this dimension's Doofenshmirtz do the same thing to him that was done to his counterpart, who now worked as an evil, half robotic slave for Doofenshmirtz. Would he just let him do the same thing again?... Yes… He would do anything if it meant that Phineas and Ferb would be safe.
He looked into the room at the group discussing summer. They were not looking at the moment, now would be the best time, if any to leave. without them knowing. He quickly tried to sneak away so they didn't know that he was leaving, but it was an unsuccessful attempt as he then heard a voice full of disappointment behind him.
"You're kidding me!" Perry stopped dead in his tracks as Phineas spoke, walking up behind him. "You're actually sneaking away again? So nothing's changed huh?" the words hurt like spikes driving right through the heart that was slowly crushing inside the platypus's chest, but it was what he said next that hurt the most. "Did it ever occur to you that we could help you? That we could have made a great team? But I guess you can't have teamwork without trust!" Perry looked down at his feet. He did trust them. He was doing everything for their own good! If only he could tell them what he was really doing. If only there was a chance for him to show Phineas that he did trust the two. It was what Phineas said next that pushed everything too far for the pet. "You don't need to sneak away anymore… we know you secret, you can just go…"
Perry could not have hurt more in his life than when Phineas said that. The boy pretty much disowned him. He had to fight back the tears as he walked away to the door. He stepped outside and started to walk down the road, just as things couldn't have gotten worse, it started to rain down on him. Phineas… why?... I was doing this for both of your guy's safety. I don't want anyone to hurt you guys… He thought these things as he walked away and heard the door shut behind him a little ways away.
They were not looking anymore. He turned around and looked over at the house the boys were in. A tear fell to the road below him among all the raindrops. There was no point in anything anymore was there? It didn't matter what was going to happen to him next. He wouldn't even try to stop what they planned on doing to him. They could not possibly hurt him more than Phineas did.
He stood there and looked at the house for a moment, hardly even noticing that a Normbot had just come up behind him. He turned to it and looked up. The Normbot was scanning him briefly. It then spoke.
"Alternate dimension Perry the Platypus! You must come with me!" It's head switched to the more evil looking side, it reached for the agent. Perry didn't even try to get away. He was turning himself in like he was told. He looked back at the house for a moment as the robot grabbet him with it's metal hands. He didn't care how hard it was grabbing him, he just hoped the boys would be safe when he was gone.
The Normbot took him to Doof's lair where the two doctors were trying to rebuild the Other Dimension-inator. The bot threw Perry the Platypus onto the ground and placed a basket over him with a brick on top. He could have gotten out if he wanted to. He didn't though. Doof said if he did that his bet was off.
The two doctors turned around and looked at him. Though an evil smirk seemed to cross the 2nd dimension dictator's face… but there was something else there too. There seemed to be a slightly… sorry look?... no it wasn't! This man was truly evil, he couldn't have sympathy like the doof from his own dimension, could he? Perry forgot the look that he was thinking about as the dictator spoke to him.
"Ah, Perry the Platypus," they both spoke.
"Jinx! You owe me TWO sodas!" Perry's Doof said in an excited voice. The dictator rolled it off and continued to talk to the platypus.
"Listen, Perry the Platypus, I know that I said if you turned yourself in, I wouldn't hurt your friends, but… change of plans! now I need to hunt them down, which may involve a little hurting," that last part right there! Perry noticed something. That last part didn't seem to come across as evil as Doofenshmirtz may have been trying to make it sound. It sounded more like he may not want to hurt them, yet it still seemed like the man was fully capable of it. The agent could not understand what was going on with this dimension's Doofenshmirtz. He didn't know what was going through the man's head. It was still a safe bet to assume the worst.
"I know that makes me a liar, but HELLO! Evil!" he continued. Perry glared at the eye patched man in front of him. It was safe to guess that the man WOULD hurt Phineas and Ferb if he had to. But would he do it if it was unecesary?
"Now what are we going to do with Perry the Platypus?" the Doofenshmirtz Perry knew asked the more evil version of himself. "Do you plan on turning him into a platyborg too?" he asked, sounding a bit worried. He may be Perry's nemesis, but the platypus knew the scientist cared about him.
"No. I have something different planned for this little platypus this time." the other Doof said in response as he turned and glared at Perry. Then the man seemed to look at the monotreme for a moment, as if he was studying his expression. He seemed to notice that Perry was looking a little sad now, the agent had stopped glaring back at the evil doctor. Something had hit Perry. The thought that he had now been turned in, and the boys were still in danger. He couldn't escape though, if he did then he couldn't go to the boys, it would only lead them to Phineas and Ferb. Then they would for sure be in danger.
The dictator noticed this look that came across Perry the Platypus's face. He started to remember HIS Perry the Platypus, before what he had done to him had been done. An idea came across the man's mind.
"Actually… forget what I was going to do. We need him to get those boys." he smiled an evil smile as he signaled for the Normbots to grab him from the cage. They held the platypus in front of Doofenshmirtz. Perry turned his head away, not wanting the man to see the tear in his face at the moment. He could do nothing to help the boys now.
He felt something cold and hard around his neck just then. He looked down and saw a metal collar that was on him and a chain that was connected to it and held on the other end by the doctor.
"Normbot!" the dictator said to a nearby Normbot that was not holding Perry. "Go make the anouncement that we have captured Perry the Platypus. But make sure you put in the possiblility of him being turned into a platyborg. I want those two boys to think he's in trouble. They will have to come and save him. If not, well, I can just send MY platyborg to get them." he said and turned to the Normbot holding Perry. "Put him down. I can take care of him now. We have a little trap to set up." he smiled at Perry with an evil glare. This man! He was so mean, so evil, so… he didn't know.
They were then brought down to the level down in the basement where they arranged a bunch of the Normbots. Platyborg came down there with them. He was just standing there, not even noticing Perry chained to the leash doofenshmirtz was holding. What had he done to the platypus? Why did he do it? The obvious answer was that the man was evil, but then, why did he not just destroy him? Was the evil dictator similar to the doctor that he knew?
They waited there until they heard a mine car coming close.
"Shut the lights off! We don't want them to see us until they are caught." Doofenshmirtz said as he held tighter to the chain that he held connected to the other dimension Perry's neck. He didn't want him to run off and escape with his owners. The boys were needed to fix the machine.
He didn't really know if he wanted to hurt them or not. These thoughts were bothering him more and more every hour that day. He was getting affected by his alternate self. Or at least, that's what he told himself in his mind.
Just then he saw the door open, a tiny amount of light entered the room. It was just out of reach of the hiding Normbots. Doofenshmirtz could not see over his robots, but he heard someone among a small group mention that it was dark. As they walked closer he decided it was time.
"That's because it's a trap!" his alternate self said as he was turning on the lights to reveal the room full of Normbots. "And if it was light, you would have seen us, and run away, hence ruining the trap!"
"I think they get that." he told his other self who looked like he was full of an accomplished feeling that had never come across him before. He then heard the red head boy speak up once he noticed the platypus chained there next to the doctor.
"Perry! We uh, well… well, we uh, came to rescue you." the shortest boy spoke up to his pet, who Doofenshmirtz was now looking back at the boy with a somewhat sad and worried look. The boy paused a moment, as if finally realizing they were now trapped. "So far it's not going as well as we'd hoped. We didn't have time to you know, plan something elaborate. But we could've, I don't know… created some sort of diversion, just in case…" the boy sighed. "Yeah we could've thought this out more."
This was kind of pathetic! Doofenshmirtz thought to himself. There is no way this will go wrong! He smiled and let out a laugh at the platypus next to him.
"Hee hee! I've got YOU, and I've got your little friends too! Game over! You lose! I win! Mark THIS the hour of your doom Perry the Platypus!" he turned to his watch to see what time it was. It was important for his prisoner to know what time he had failed, but it was harder than he thought to see the time. "Three forty… ugh! I got one of these watches with just the little hash marks on it. It doesn't even have numbers on it! Let's just say it's between 3:30 and four. Eastern standard time." he said to the agent, a little frustrated with his watch.
Just then, the most shocking thing happened. Out of nowhere, a hologram of an older man in the shower came up in front of everyone. Was that Monogram?! He shielded his eye at the sight of the man whose upper body and a bunch of water and bubbles was shown before them.
"Agh!" he shouted as him and his alternate self both look away. The Normbots and platyborg looked away as well, and he dropped the chain he was holding connected to Perry the Platypus.
He heard the group run away and the big door shut. Doofenshmirtz turned to the platyborg who was now no longer looking away.
"General Platyborg! After them! Don't let them get away this time!" he shouted. The platyborg saluted him and went to the door. The Normbots all followed and burnt an opening in the door, they flew out and after the runaways.
Platyborg flew behind the Normbots for a moment. He then noticed that the bots were failing in their mission. It was up to him. Perry the Platyborg flew in closer, avoiding the lasers that were being shot back by a robot arm the group had gotten a hold of. He figured there was no need to destroy them since his master needed them alive. It was a simple solution. He aimed for the tire in the front of the cars over to his left and fired.
The boys holding the robot arm and shooting with it slipped. The arm fell down below to where no one could see. Platyborg was satisfied with his work and landed letting the rest of the Normbots catch the group who was now helpless and abandoned by the rest of the minecarts.
Normbots flew the four prisoners up to him and he smiled an evil grin. Doofenshmirtz would be proud of him… but then something caught his eye. He did not know what to make of it. While he could understand the tall girl's look of fear, the pointy headed boy's look of anger and the long headed boys blank stare. He did not understand what the platypus's face was showing. It seemed to resemble depression, but it didn't seem as sad as depression should be. It seemed to try to look into him, as if it were trying to comunicate telepathically with him. It almost seemed to say… How?
Alright, I hope it wasn't confusing as I switched the POV's a bit. Tell me what you guys think! More than just one person respond please! R and R! Do it! If someone doesn't review the Platypus gets it! (Quoting Doof! I wouldn't actually do anything to Perry… well unless it's like this story where these things HAD to happen) come on people! I don't know if you guys think it's good or not! Tell me! Please?
