Chapter 26

(2:29pm)

Kim took out her small Kimmunicator from the platypus-fit cargo pants.

"Hey, Wade, what's the sitch?" she asked with her most famous words.

"According to my specs on this building, Kim, you should be standing over an air duct." Wade said as he was mapping out DEI. "So I believe you may need to use your laser lipstick to cut a hole into the roof! Also in your backpack should be my patented 'lip-gloss', compact sleeping powder, and an eyebrush that can fry the controls of any device."

"All right! Now we're packin', Wade!" Kim smirked, but then looked at her teal hands.

"How are we on that stupid animal tranform machine thing the Tweebs used?"

"So far..." Wade replied, "...it is some of the most complicated technology I have seen in quite a while. Again, Kim, it may take me a few hours to find the controls that can reverse it."

"Great..." Kim whined, "Wade, do what you can on that machine. Me and Agent P are going to stop this Doof guy or whatever his name is."

"Okay, Kim." came Wade's reply before it went back to the KP logo.

Kim was about to use the laser lipstick to cut a hole.

"Agent P, in no time, we'll be breaking through this place!"

Agent P whistled and pointed to a hatch with a sign that says "TO AIR DUCTS"

Kim stopped cutting with the laser and said, "Well, I could've saw that!" She also admitted, "The sooner we can accomplish the mission, the sooner I'll return to my human self!"

(5 minutes later)

Agent P was leading the way through the air ducts with Kim right behind him since he knew his way around DEI.

"Okay, Agent P, we're gonna have to stick together on this one. We'll go into his lair nice and quietly. That way, we'll be sure to avoid any traps."

Little did she know that Agent P accidentally tripped the wire of their presence as alarms blared and the bottom of the air ducts opened up to a tube..

"WHOAAAAAAA!"

Kim and Agent P were sucked out of the tube and fell onto the floor.

She rubbed her behind and replied, rolling her eyes, "I just had to open my big trap."

And then an unexpected voice came from the PA system with a sinister laugh. "And speaking of which...you're TRAPPED!"

Instantly, a tube of denture paste popped up from behind and squired the hands and feet of both Agent P and Kim.

"I didn't mean that literally!" Kim complained as the evil chuckling got closer and closer.

A figure popped out of the shadows, chucking and tenting his fingers.

It was none other than Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz.

"Ah! Perry the Platypus! So nice to see you again!" Heinz chuckled. "But at least you didn't break down the door to my lair!"

"So this is the 'famous' Dr. Doofenshmirtz, huh?" Kim scoffed as she studied him, "Kinda looks like an everyday run-of-the-mill mad scientist!"

Heinz then looked at Kim and asked, "Oh, who's your new platypus friend?"

Agent P just stared at the doctor silently.

"Don't give me that look, Perry the Platypus! Sheesh! I'm only trying to be courteous, that's all!"

He turned back to Kim and asked, "Might I ask, little platypus, what's your name?"

"Someone who's going to ruin your day, Doctor!" Kim countered.

"Hmm...that name doesn't ring a bell as, say, Perry the Platypus's name!" Doofenshmirtz replied, shrugging his shoulders, "But I like your outfit! It kinda looks cute on you!"

"Anyways..." the mad scientist continued, "..I'll show you what I've been working on today! If you will just hop to where my skiff is!"

"Are you really serious about this, Agent P?" Kim asked her platypus companion.

Agent P nodded his head and followed Doofenshmirtz. Sighing, Kim followed right behind them.
