Olivia: Hey everyone! Sorry for the long time between this post and the last. Things have just been so hectic around here, I thought I'd go insane if I didn't get at least five minutes to myself. Things are slowing down now, so updates will be a lot sooner. Now, I'd like to thank you all who reviewed: MuchuFox, Redemerald6, WordNerb93, Radar180, NattyMc, Fletcher-inator, EvilAntauri, thewolfstar, sidlovespandf15, DarkHeartInTheSky, Pink Wildfire, Isabella012, Renee Everhart, Frodo the Second, When In Doubt Rock It Out, TheCuriousWriter, watermelonwafflesBISCUITS, and zealousfreak27. Thank you all for being patient, and trust me, the next update will be within the next few days.

Dr. Doofenshmirtz was getting impatient. He was so excited to enact his evil scheme that he was practically bouncing off the wall. He would have Perry the Platypus this time. He wouldn't be thwarted! At the same time, this nagging feeling at the back of his head kept him from fully enjoying his plan. He felt bad that the boys had to be involved like this. Who knew guilt could be so strong?

Still, the way he saw it, he was giving them an emotionally scarring back story that they could use to be driven to do whatever it was kids were into these days. Who knew? Maybe when it was all over and he let them go, they would find their own nemesises to do battle with one day. Or was it nemeses? Whichever one it was, that's what they would have.

That's when Perry swung in through the window and landed in a defensive stance with his body low and his fist at the ready. Dr. Doofenshmirtz smiled broadly.

"Ah, Perry the Platypus, you're right on time. Right on time to be TRAPPED!" Just then, a cage fell down on top of the platypus, thus trapping him inside. Dr. Doofenshmirtz walked over to the cage and leaned on it.

"I know, that wasn't one of my most clever lines and I've used it before, but maybe if you had brought me the milk I asked, you would have gotten a better one." Perry glanced to the floor guiltily then back up at Doofenshmirtz, who nodded.

"Yea that's right. See, I told you. It's such an easy thing to forget! Though, I guess I can't get too upset about it. I mean, I did forget about it myself, and it's as they say, 'don't cry over forgotten milk' or something like that. So, Perry the Platypus, you might be wondering, what scheme does Doof have for me today? Why does he seem more confident than usual? Why does he smell like grape soda?" He paused for a second, and then continued.

"Well, okay, the last one might not be in the top three questions, but I feel it's worth mentioning anyway. You see a certain robot shook the can when he gave it to me, so when I opened it I accidently spilled the soda, which, actually explains the purple stain here on my lab coat." Perry tapped his foot impatiently. Dr. Doofenshmirtz raised his hands in acknowledgement.

"Okay, I know, you want to get to the point. The soda's not important right now, but this is!" Doofenshmirtz sing-songed the last few words before pulling a sheet off his –inator; a laser on a floor mount, standing about the same height as the scientist. Doofenshmirtz threw his arms out to add emphasis to his creation.

"BEHOLD! The Anti-Ink-Corported-Inator!" Perry crossed his arms as Dr. Doofenshmirtz started on his spiel.

"You see, Perry the Platypus, the corporations that make ink sell it for so much money, that it's just too expensive to buy on a regular basis. Blah, blah, blah, octopuses make it for FREE, etc, etc. So, I came up with an ingenious plan. I will eliminate all the ink corporations and then, start a new one of my own, so I can sell ink for cheap. Then, I will drastically increase the price! With no competition, I will have enough money to buy the entire Tri-State Area! Consequently, making me, Heinz Doofenshmirtz, it's supreme leader. Not bad, eh Perry the Platypus?" Perry rolled his eyes.

"What? It's a good plan! It's all perfectly legal too, minus the getting rid of ink corporations. Though, now it occurs to me, it should probably be and Anti-Ink-Corporation-Inator instead of an Anti-Ink-Corporated-Inator because the second name sounds like I'm against places with "incorporated" in the name, which obviously I'm not because I own one. You know, 'Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated'. I've even got my own evil jingle and everything." He pressed a button on the wall and, from no discernable source, the jingle played.

Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!

"I know, we hear it every time you come over but I never get tired of hearing it… Okay one more time."

Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!

"Music to my ears! Meh, I'm lingering on the details. It's time to move on to the second part of my scheme." Just then, Dr. Doofenshmirtz got a glint in his eye that seemed to confuse the platypus a little. For Doofenshmirtz, it was a reassuring sign.

"You see, Perry the Platypus, this time I can't possibly fail! For I have come up with a way to keep you from thwarting my plans. I got the idea after you saved Vanessa from being hit by that bookshelf on my other scheme.

"Remember when you ran into me at the grocery and I had the cereal and I was all 'I've got a sure-fire way to stop you,' or something to that effect? Well, now is the time to unveil my plan. But first, I should tell you not to try to escape because that cage you're in has a self destruct box on it that will blow up the cage if you try to pick the lock. Just like THIS ONE!" He pulled a lever on the wall and the wall opposite Perry flipped to reveal a giant screen.

The image shown shocked, angered, and terrified Perry more than he ever thought he could be. All he could do was gape at the image he saw. Suddenly, he didn't feel at all guilty for not getting the milk.

Olivia: Please review, the next chapter is coming up soon!
