Chapter 6
"What?"
"The machine. It hasn't disappeared because you haven't tried it!" 'Oh well', she thought
"Phineas…" was all she could say before he dragged her to a chair beside the machine. "Phineas, could I…"
"Hold on Isabella. I want to see if I'm right." She gulped. She just wanted to tell him but now he was going to see her immortal love for him.
Back at Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated, Doof and Perry were locked in a fierce battle involving fists, cupcakes and for some reason, a Giant Floating Baby Head. They were evenly matched before Doof grabbed a cupcake and threw straight at Perry, knocking him to the floor.
"Aha! Now, Perry the Platypus, tremble in fear as I begin my rule as Emperor of the TRI-STATE AR…" He began to start coughing uncontrollably, unable to finish his evil speech. "Water! Water!" he ran over to a deck where a bottle of water stood. He took a long swig and was back to his evil self again. "Ah, now that's hydrating!" . Perry took the opportunity to knock down the evil scientist but missed, knocking his water out of his hand. "What the… Perry the Platypus! What was that! I take a time out and you attack me! What kind of good guy are you! Who tries to disable their opponent when their back is tuned. I mean that… That's just rude!" Perry, feeling guilty, bowed his head in shame and began to walk towards the balcony. "Yeah, just think about what you did!" Perry gave a sly smile as he leaped onto Doof's 'Earlybirdgetstheworm-inator' and hovered his finger over the 'self-destruct button. "NO! Perry the Platypus! NO!" But as Perry pressed the button, Doof began to cackle. "That's not the self-destruct button, Perry the Platypus!" he pulled a button from out of his lab coat pocket. "This is. I never installed it. The button you pressed was the 'random firing button'! The –inator soon began to swing in every direction possible blasting out its energy beams uncontrollably.
Both Doof and Perry tried their best to avoid the laser blasts using anything at their disposal. "Agh! Save us Perry the Platypus!" Perry rolled his eyes at him, if they did get hit, they would just want to go to bed, not die, but this –inator couldn't be left in Doof's evil fingers. Perry slid under the –inator and began to push it off its hinges, so it wouldn't be able to rotate any more. Doofenshmirtz was cowering behind his arm chair, sucking his thumb while Perry heroically managed to dislodge the –inator from its base. But before he would destroy it, one last blast should do it. He called out to Doof with his platypus chatter which Doofenshmirtz interpreted as being 'all clear' but as soon as he stepped out from behind his chair, Perry zapped him with his –inator. But instead of going to bed, he just fell straight to sleep and fell onto to the metal floor. Perry thought to help him up but as he approached Doofenshmirtz, he heard a phrase that made him smile. "Curse you Perry the Platypus." he said softly between snores. Perry's work was done. He grabbed the inator and threw it over the edge before activating his hand glider and flying off back home. However, a stray shot from the –inator was also making its way to the Flynn-Fletcher household.
"Phineas, I don't think it's gonna disappear."
"It will, trust me." He said keeping his eyes to the sky, waiting for something to take his invention away. As much as he hated losing his inventions every day, it had become quite a curiosity to him. They had already tried a few times to find out where their inventions went but they never found any sign of them. Isabella turned to the monitor on the machine and saw and image forming. It was blurry at the moment but soon it would show that familiar triangle shaped head she loved so much.
"Phineas, could you please look at me" she pleaded. If he kept looking at the sky, he wouldn't see her biggest love on the monitor before his invention would disappear. As he turned around, his eyes meeting hers, the sun hit the horizon, creating a bright orange sky. 'Did she always look this cute' he thought. 'Wait, where did that come from?' The picture on the monitor began to clear up revealing a clearer triangle shape. As Isabella's gaze drifted to the monitor, wondering if Phineas would see it, she looked back to him and gasped mentally at the sight in front of her. He was staring into her eyes. She saw the deep pools of blue that were her eyes, in his. This was it. The moment that she wanted all her life! She attempted to speak in her most attractive voice that she could pull off. "Look at the screen." He had never heard her say anything so… so. He couldn't put a word to it but he liked it. But as he turned towards the monitor, he felt his eyes getting heavier. He felt as though he had worked nonstop for a week and he needed sleep. Isabella on the other hand tried to stay awake, she needed to. She needed to know if Phineas loved her. She didn't know if she could face it if she had to wait until tomorrow. Phineas managed to keep his eyes open long enough to see the one thing she loved the most in the entire world right now. Her bed. He would have said something, but he wanted his bed as well and without as much as a goodbye both Phineas and Isabella went their respective ways to the things they loved the most in this world; their beds.
As the sun came down on Danville, Perry emerged from one of his entrances in his pet platypus disguise. He would have went straight into Phineas and Ferb's room but, there machine was still standing. If their mom saw this, she would almost certainly ground them. 'It's a good thing she is still out for the night' thought Perry as he slipped on his fedora and used the secret entrance in the corner of the house. Once he had made it to his lair he rushed up to the control panel and pressed three buttons before pulling a lever. A square shaped platform rose from the floor of his lair and stopped at the roof. Perry then pressed another button and the grass beneath the machine gave way as the brother's invention dropped onto the platform. Perry then pressed another set of buttons and the platform lowered back down into his lair. He would have put it in storage, but today had been a long day and he decided he would do something about it in the morning. He yawned and pressed one final button before going to bed. As he entered a tube next to him and got sucked up the vacuum, the hole in the ground got replaced with another patch of grass. Perry slowly made his way upstairs, not wanting to wake the boys or their father, who had been asleep all day in order to work all day tomorrow at the Antique store. He quietly opened the boy's bedroom door slowly and closed it with the same amount of force. He then hoped up onto Phineas' bed and curled up beside him but not before Phineas instinctively put an arm around him and mumbled:
"There you are Perry."
