Authors Note: If you don't remember the Destruct-inator then I suggest you go on the Phin and Ferb wiki and look at its picture. It is not to be confused with the Destruct-Inator Ray. In fact I'd much rather prefer to be under the Destruct-Inator Ray. It was in the episode 'Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror'. The 2nd episode of Phineas and Ferb. Thank you veryloyalfan for the setting, I don't own anything…etc.

Feelings: Chapter 5

I didn't know exactly what was happening. All I felt was this sense of urgency and that something seriously needed my attention…

I was in my lab I knew that much and I started to look around the room, trying to look for something important or urgent that needed my attention. My eyes wandered. I saw my workbench, nothing urgent there. I looked toward my kitchen, I wasn't hungry or anything so food wasn't the issue. There was a pile of mail on my table…I should really look into that sometime. Norm's spare squirrel had escaped from its cage and was now rummaging through my pants drawer…what was with squirrels and pants?

My phone was ringing somewhere but I could care less really. My computer was unlocked but I'm pretty sure I left it like that. The Shrink-inator was still plugged in…I have GOT to do something about that; Eh I'll do it tomorrow. My golf clubs weren't put away (but again they were already like that).

I didn't see anything urgent at all. Let's see…there was nothing wrong in the kitchen, mail on my table, Norm's squirrel, phone ringing, computer unlocked, Shrink-inator was still plugged in, golf clubs not put away, Perry the Platypus was tied down under the Destruct-Inator, Vanessa and Norm were playing ping pong, Rodney was dancing in a ballerina outfit- WAIT.

I don't play golf….why do I even have golf clubs anyways? I guess I could just sell them on ibay…but then I'd have to ship them and that just seems like so much work. Maybe I could just store them in my closet or something…wait.

…

"PERRY THE PLATYPUS!" I ran to the struggling mammal and started searching for a way to get him out. I pulled on the bonds of his restraints but they wouldn't budge even an inch. I gave up and started pressing my back against the inator, trying to redirect it from its initial target. It too- would not budge.

I started frantically pulling on the restraints again; I glared over at my daughter and robot, still pulling "This is an excellent time for you to be playing ping pong…since when do you two even stay in the same room together?"

"WE'RE BONDING"

"Whatever…" I stopped pulling and raised an eyebrow at Rodney "Why're you wearing a ballerina outfit and dancing in my house?"

"I don't tell you how to live your life Heinz!"

I shook my head "Can one of you give me a hand here?" When no one volunteered I turned back to Perry the Platypus who was still frantically pulling and kicking to get out of the metal bonds "Can you believe them Perry the Platypus? I know I can't!"

The platypus stopped struggling and stared at me expectantly.

"What?"

Perry glared and gestured to the Destruct-inator that was slowly lowering at a dangerous pace.

"Oh yeah" I began pulling at the restraints again and my nemesis continued yanking his arms and legs.

"This isn't working Perry the Platypus…I'll- I'll go get something to try and break through these cuffs, you just keep pulling and try to find a weak spot"

My nemesis nodded and began pulling and yanking again, searching for a weak point. I began searching my apartment for something that would cut through the metal, or something to shatter them with (whatever I found first). I came back with a crowbar but as soon as I stepped into the room a sudden powerful force slammed me into the wall. Now, I have back problems already and that definitely didn't help them.

My back ached painfully as it collided with the wall. I ignored the pain and looked up; I narrowed my eyes at him. Of course he'd be here. Why wouldn't he be? I noticed that Rodney, Vanessa and Norm were nowhere to be found but I subsided the thought.

He smirked at me and began walking towards Perry the Platypus who was still struggling, taking no recollection of the person slowly coming towards him threateningly. I tried to get up and stop him from getting any closer to my nemesis but I couldn't move….he was controlling me again.

The man -whose identity I have yet to know- placed a large hand on the frantic animal's chest and pumped down once. A purple force slammed the platypus against the metal and from what I could tell, it was pretty powerful because the air was knocked out of my nemesis and he turned a dark shade of blue. Perry stopped struggling and slumped down on the table, his normal color slowly returning.

The machine got closer. I struggled against the invisible hold around me with all my strength as the mystery man watched everything from across the room. The inator was now a few mere feet away and Perry closed his eyes in defeat.

What happened next no one could anticipate, I forced myself out of the hold and jumped in the middle of the machine and my nemesis.

The drill twisted and drilled into my stomach and the spinning blades cut into my sides. I won't get too into detail but there was blood, I could tell you that. Perry mirrored my horrified expression and I turned my gaze to the person in the corner, he was gone. I smiled at Perry one last time before everything started to fade away and my head drooped to the side before the small flames of fire could reach me.

I woke up in my bed, my body fully intact and blood free. I lifted my shirt just to be sure and when I was completely reassured I slumped back on my pillow. I looked up at my ceiling, clutching my stomach but not in pain. My skin felt cold, it almost had an icy feeling. I looked down at my stomach again and the feeling left. Although now I had this small barely noticeable twinge of pain…

A/N: For those people who have no idea what the Destruct-Inator looks like, it has a large spinning drill and two spinning blades on either side accompanied by two flames on either side. Doofenshmirtz used it to destroy the lawn gnomes and in the episode 'Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror', if you look at Perry's face he is horrified when he sees the machine.
