Well, to be honest, I was going to do this a bit later...but I figured since it was almost Halloween, I'd do it anyway. This time, the villains are going to be the evil pharmacists...but unfortunately things are going to be a bit worse this time. How so? You're about to find out.
And yes, there will be many characters in this arc...just like in the original Night Of The Living Pharmacists. Basically the concept is the same...but I will be making some changes. I wanted to be creative so I figured why not. To be honest, I find this to be a bit of a what if scenario...
Chapter 26: Dawn Of The Pharmacist
Fortunately for Dr. Doofenshmirtz, Dr. Drakken had agreed to release him from his prison cell so that he could continue costing his evil schemes...and he already had a new plan to deal with his brother Roger Doofenshmirtz. Personally Dr. Doofenshmirtz wished that he could have been an only child so he wasn't forced to wear so many dresses.
He had been a laughingstock the last time that had happened. People kept telling him that he wasn't a man and that he was a girl. Of course, back when he was still married to Charlene, people sometimes wondered if she was the man in that particular relationship. Maybe it was part of the reason they got divorced? He wasn't sure.
Of course, he also let Frugal Lucre out, so he was probably going to bother Dr. Drakken later. Maybe he could set up a defense so that Frugal Lucre couldn't get in? Of course, he never bothered doing so with Kim Possible regardless of how many times she and her sidekick managed to thwart her schemes. Curse Kim Possible.
"What's the plan this time?" asked Dr. Drakken. He was looking forward to it, to say the very least. Hopefully it was something that would allow him to do something horrendous.
"I'm going to zap my brother with the Repulsinator!" exclaimed Dr. Doofenshmirtz. He in fact had done that once before, he believed. It made him wonder why he was trying it out again.
"The Repulsinator?" inquired Shego. Oddly enough, she felt a bit worried about that particular inator, though she wasn't quite sure why. Maybe it was going to backfire on them horribly? That did happen with Dr. Drakken's inventions sometimes, though personally she found it to be hilarious when that happened.
"Since we're already in Danville, we can simply use my old lair...I'll still need to repair it though..." noted Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
Sure enough, Doofenshmirtz's skyscraper was in sight. However, it appeared to be filthy due to his absence. Perhaps it would be best if he not be away for so long. Fortunately, it appeared that nobody else had taken residence during his absence, so it made life a bit easier for him.
Fortunately, he was able to get Norm to assist him...who oddly enough made the skyscraper look better than before. Now it was Doofenshmirtz REALLY Evil Incorporated.
"There we go!" exclaimed Dr. Doofenshmirtz. It was nice to spruce up one's evil lair every now and then, like the time Warmonga helped Dr. Drakken get a new evil lair. Hopefully his lair was about as impressive as Dr. Drakken's was...though admittedly his evil schemes tended to be a bit smaller.
Now it was the simple matter of waiting for Roger Doofenshmirtz's next announcement to the citizens of Danville...which would occur in a few hours from now...
"I think I'll invite my daughter Vanessa. I'm sure that she and her friends would want to see this..." answered the mad scientist. It was about time he finally got revenge on his stupid brother.
"For some strange reason your daughter reminds me of me..." questioned Shego. She wasn't quite sure why.
"Good idea!" exclaimed Dr. Drakken. He couldn't wait to see what effect the Repulsinator had on Roger Doofenshmirtz. No doubt his next mayoral campaign wouldn't turn out too well.
Meanwhile...
Once again, Phineas and Ferb had built a machine that could essentially make others rubbery. It was pretty fun being able to bounce around like a kangaroo. Fortunately, they did not bump into things too much.
"Hey Phineas. Whatcha' doin?" asked Isabella. Personally she thought that this particular invention looked rather familiar.
"I'm building a machine that will turn us into rubber again...since it was so much fun last time, I think I'll do it once more." answered Phineas. It was nice to recycle old ideas every now and then.
As before, they had decided to do it during a sunset. It looked particularly beautiful, he guessed...though his parents would inevitably want him to be back by curfew. Candace was already threatening to bust them enough as it was. Personally he did not see what was so wrong with their inventions. They never designed them to hurt anybody...though sometimes they could have some unexpected results.
Oddly enough, it seemed to have been wrecked since the last time that he had used it...though he wasn't quite sure what exactly had happened to it.
"Sounds good!" exclaimed the Fireside girl.
Suddenly, Baljeet and Buford showed up.
"Yeah...I also invited Buford and Baljeet...I figured they would want in on the fun too." noted Phineas. They always were around whenever he decided to build an invention.
"For some strange reason I can't help but shake the feeling that something bad is going to happen tonight..." answered Baljeet.
"You're probably just being paranoid..." stated Buford.
"I'm just a bit worried, that's all." noted the geek.
Sure enough, the sun appeared to be going down.
"We might want to cut this short so that we're home before bedtime." acknowledged Phineas.
Ferb nodded.
"By the way, where's Perry? I wonder if he's sleeping..." questioned the boy. He wouldn't be surprised if he saw Perry the Platypus taking a snooze. Platypuses didn't typically do much.
Underneath Phineas and Ferb's house...
This time, Perry decided to use the entrance that was located in Candace's panic room. It seemed somehow appropriate, though he wasn't quite sure why. Was there going to be an emergency situation soon? He didn't really recall dealing with Dr. Doofenshmirtz to be an emergency.
"Good morning, Agent P." stated Major Monogram. "The evil Dr. Doofenshmirtz is trying to make his brother Roger Doofenshmirtz repulsive so that nobody will want him to be mayor...put a stop to that, will you?"
Perry the Platypus nodded. It looked like he was heading off to Danville again. And yet, something about this seemed rather familiar.
"I swear, I wish that Dr. Doofenshmirtz would bury the hatchet with his brother Roger already. How long have the two of them been at it?" questioned Major Monogram. It was a very long time, to say the very least.
"Be careful out there, Agent P!" warned Carl.
Perry nodded. Something told him that he was going to need it tonight. Perhaps it would be best if he stayed home for a while after the mission was complete.
Meanwhile...
"It's good to be back in Middleton." noted Ron. Granted, they also had a Bueno Nacho in Go City, but he had still felt a bit homesick. It would be nice to get to see his baby sister Hana Stoppable again, as well as his parents. Who would have thought that they would end up adopting a ninja baby?
Of course, it made sense that they would adopt one considering that he was a ninja himself.
Besides, the Danville branch appeared to know him better than the Go City branch did, considering that they were giving him a discount. And it seemed likely that the Go Team could handle guarding it by themselves. They were quite famous superheroes.
Happily, he began to munch down on a taco. A sweet, delicious taco. Sometimes Kim had to remind him not to eat too much.
"I just can't get enough of Bueno Nacho..." noted Ron. He'd be awfully depressed if it ever went out of business...though that seemed unlikely with him around.
"Yeah, I know." nodded Kim Possible. Hopefully she would get to visit her friends, such as Monique and Felix. They probably wanted to hang out with her and Ron sometime.
Perhaps she should try visiting the Club Banana or the arcade...that seemed like a good place to find them as any.
After finishing her salad, Kim Possible decided to go visit Club Banana. Perhaps her friend Monique was still working there.
As she did so, Ron began to ask himself a question.
"Where's Rufus?" questioned Ron. It wasn't like him to miss out on Bueno Nacho. He didn't know what he was missing.
Sometimes he worried about the little guy.
Elsewhere in Bueno Nacho...
As it turned out, Rufus had decided to use the sink entrance to get to his lair this time. Incidentally, the entrance to the lair happened to be a water slide.
"Wheee!" exclaimed Rufus as he slid down the slide. Granted, he was now fairly wet...but as it turned out, there was a towel nearby that he could use to dry himself off.
"That was fun!" thought Agent R. Of course, he didn't really have to play games.
"Cowabunga!" bellowed Major Monogram as he took a turn on the water slide.
But apparently, Major Monogram did.
Curious, Ned thought that he had seen a naked mole rat go down the sink, but he decided that maybe his eyes were playing tricks on him. Sometimes making so many tacos could do that to him. He did work awfully hard...he even worked overtime regularly.
As he did so, he encountered Perry the Platypus.
"Hey there, Agent P. We almost forgot to tell you...since Dr. Doofenshmirtz is with Dr. Drakken you'll be working with Agent R for this mission..." explained Carl.
Agent P nodded. That seemed like a good idea. This wasn't the first time that they had worked together, after all. He did admit that he was expecting a mammal with more hair though.
"Good luck out there, you two!" exclaimed Major Monogram's assistant. For some odd reason he got the feeling that they were going to need it pretty soon...but what was the worst that could happen?
Immediately, Agent P and Agent R left on Agent P's car. Off to Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated they went.
And yet, for some strange reason, they had a bad feeling about this mission...though they weren't quite sure why.
These thoughts continued to linger as they headed towards Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated.
Back at Phineas and Ferb's house...
"Since I invented this I'll go first. It's a shame that it got wrecked...but I suppose I can always keep on repairing it." noted Phineas. It wasn't difficult for him to get the supplies he needed to make his inventions...though they did typically ask him about him being a little young to be building those sort of things. He was kind of a...prodigy.
"Some people don't have respect for other people's property." acknowledged Ferb.
Immediately, Phineas tested the machine on himself. Sure enough, he felt the urge to bounce up and down. It made him feel rather excited.
"You want to go next, Ferb?" asked Phineas.
Ferb nodded. It seemed appropriate that he should be second considering that he was Phineas's stepbrother and had helped him build the device...or rather rebuild it.
Phineas zapped Ferb with the rubber device, causing him to become rubbery as well. Though he didn't seem as excited as his brother was (which was a regular occurrence), he also seemed to be enjoying himself, judging from the smile on his face.
"Can I go next?" asked Isabella.
"Sure you can, Isabella..." answered Phineas. He always liked it whenever Isabella appreciated his work. In fact, sometimes he built machines in order to impress her...or to help her with her Fireside duties. She must have a hundred patches by now.
As she did so, Isabella wondered if she should tell Phineas how she felt. She recalled trying to do it once before...but unfortunately Phineas didn't seem to remember. It was rather unfortunate.
Nonetheless, she got the feeling that Phineas would flip if she were to suddenly go missing...though maybe that was just a hunch.
"Can I go next? Mind you, this all seems very familiar..." noted Baljeet.
"Of course you can. And I believe we tested this out once before." answered Phineas. It should be safe.
"Let me try it too!" demanded Buford.
Phineas zapped both Baljeet and Buford, causing them to become bouncy as well. They were basically bouncing off the walls at this point.
"Let's bounce through Middleton, shall we?" asked Phineas. This seemed a good way to explore Middleton since they had already gotten an opportunity to explore the Tri-State Area.
Immediately, the five of them began to bounce across Middleton. As they did so, they decided to visit Danville, since it wasn't too far from them.
As they crossed the borderline, they passed an abandoned factory...which wasn't quite so abandoned anymore.
Little did they know that was where two evil villains were currently residing along with their assorted flunkies.
"You know, it's funny..." answered Atrosis.
"Vhat is?" asked Professor Dementor.
"It appears that those kids rubberized themselves...kind of like me." questioned the supervillainess.
"Vhat a coincidence!" exclaimed the professor. Perhaps they had gotten the idea from Atrosis herself.
"I know..." nodded Atrosis. "Anyways, why are we hiding in Danville? Shouldn't we head back to Middleton?" That was where they usually concocted their evil schemes.
"The OWCA is hunting us down zere...ve need to stay low so zat ve don't get spotted..." answered Professor Dementor. Fortunately, it appeared that they had decided to search Middleton rather than Danville. As long as they didn't draw too much attention to themselves, they should be safe.
And besides, the OWCA never seemed to bother searching abandoned factories. Perhaps they found them to be a bit creepy. It appeared that they were all at headquarters, except for maybe Perry the Platypus and Rufus.
"I suppose that makes sense." nodded the supervillainess. Perhaps they shouldn't come up with evil schemes for the time being so that they didn't gain the attention of the OWCA. That was short for the Organization Without A Cool Acronym, right? That was rather...unfortunate. If only they could think of one.
Oddly enough, she got the feeling that Dr. Doofenshmirtz was coming up with an evil plan as they spoke, though they weren't quite sure what it is.
For some strange reason, Atrosis got the feeling that it was an evil scheme that they should be considered about...though they weren't quite sure why.
At Club Banana...
"Hey, Monique!" exclaimed Kim.
"Hey there, Kim! Good to see you again!" bellowed Monique. Personally she wondered if Kim was there to try out some new outfits. Kim did seem to have a lot of them already.
"It's good to see you again too. I've been babysitting these two boys, lately. They remind me of my brothers...yet thankfully they seem to behave themselves pretty well." noted the cheerleader.
"That's good to hear..." answered the girl.
Curious, she noticed that Candace was currently shopping at Club Banana as well.
"Hello, Candace!" exclaimed Kim.
"Hi, Kim! I can't help but shake the feeling my brothers are doing something bustable this afternoon..." noted Candace.
"They've even helped me on missions sometimes...like the time where I had to stop Camille Leon from destroying my reputation..." stated Kim.
"They're awfully special, aren't they?" questioned Monique. It wasn't every day that you got to meet boys like them.
"As a matter of fact, they are." nodded the cheerleader. Perhaps they were the boys that could do anything. Was there a limit to anything that they could build? Maybe it was their imagination.
"I heard that they were building a rubbery device..." acknowledged Kim's brunette friend. Perhaps Wade would be interested in building that sort of device himself...though she wasn't sure how he would implement it during a mission.
"Really? I might want to check it out..." answered Kim Possible. For some strange reason it reminded her of a member of her rogues gallery. She wasn't quite sure which one though.
Saying goodbye to Monique, she decided to go visit the boys. Perhaps they were doing something fun.
On the way out, she noticed that Candace was currently shopping at Club Banana as well.
"Hey, Candace." said Kim.
"Hi, Kim. My brothers are doing something bustable today, I can feel it!" exclaimed Candace.
"You sure it's such a good idea to stress about your brothers, so much?" inquired the cheerleader.
"It's my job to bust them! If I can't do it, nobody can!" bellowed the long-necked girl.
"I still don't see what's so bad about their inventions..." answered Kim.
Immediately, she and Candace left Club Banana. They couldn't help but shake the feeling that they should prepare for the worst...though they did not know why.
As she did so, Vanessa received a phone call from her father.
"What? You want me to see you zap my uncle with one of your inators? I'm not so sure that such's a good idea, Dad." questioned Vanessa. Her hunches usually turned out to be right, too.
"C'mon, Vanessa! It will be fun...at least for me." answered Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
"Whatever you say." stated the daughter of an evil scientist. At least she would get the opportunity to try to prove to her mother that her father was evil...though she was never successful in the endeavor.
Immediately, she put away her phone and began to take a taxi towards Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated.
Elsewhere in Middleton...
As it turned out, the Fireside Girls were currently on a field trip to Middleton, so she got the opportunity to visit them.
Immediately, she bounced through a window so that she could visit them.
"Hey there, Gretchen! Are you going to sing a song about how I should tell Phineas how I feel?" asked Isabella.
"Why would I do that?" questioned Gretchen.
"It just seemed appropriate..." answered the Fireside Girl.
"I suppose that wouldn't be such a bad idea..." nodded Ginger. Personally she wondered if she should tell Baljeet how she felt. That was what her older sister Stacy suggested that she do.
"To be fair, I have been working on it lately...and I get the feeling that he cares..." acknowledged Isabella.
"That's good." agreed Adyson.
"Perhaps I should try doing that tonight. Right now we're testing out his rubber invention..." noted the Fireside Girl.
"Sounds like fun!" exclaimed Milly. Perhaps they should try helping Phineas and Ferb with another one of their inventions sometime.
Immediately, Isabella decided to leave the girls and reunite with Phineas and the others.
"For some strange reason I'm worried about when the sun goes down..." stated Katie.
"You feel it too?" asked Holly.
"Yeah...something doesn't feel quite right this afternoon..." questioned Gretchen.
Hopefully they would be ready for whatever happened.
Meanwhile...
Once again, the familiar Dr. Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated jingle began to play. Rufus wondered where it was coming from. Perry the Platypus never seemed to question that. Apparently he had gotten used to it by now.
Of course, as soon as Rufus and Perry entered the building, they found themselves being trapped.
This time, it was Norm and Shego respectively.
Immediately, Norm grabbed Perry while Shego grabbed Rufus.
"My name is Norm. Dr. Doofenshmirtz sent me to capture you." stated Norm with his trademark smile on his face.
Perry the Platypus could already see that.
"This is so much easier without Kim Possible...though admittedly you did bring that semi-aquatic mammal of action or whatever..." noted Shego.
"Let go!" exclaimed Rufus.
"Ah, Perry the Platypus. I should have known that you would try to thwart our scheme!" exclaimed Dr. Doofenshmirtz. He was his archenemy after all. It seemed only a matter of time before he would show up this afternoon. It was a shame really. Using his inventions on his brother was pretty fun. Maybe he should try using one on Perry the Platypus.
"What scheme?" asked the naked mole rat.
"We're going to use the Repulse-inator on Dr. Doofenshmirtz's obnoxious brother...though personally I think that we should use it on Kim Possible." noted Dr. Drakken.
"That's not a bad idea..." nodded the evil scientist. Perhaps they would do that after they had dealt with Roger Doofenshmirtz.
Upon the mention of the Repulsinator, Perry the Platypus began to feel rather worried. Hadn't he seen it in action before?
Immediately, Dr. Doofenshmirtz aimed the device at his brother Roger. Sure enough, he was speaking to the public of Danville.
However, as he did so, he noticed that the device was set at the maximum setting...and he was worried that it was going to explode. Wouldn't want that to happen.
Now that he thought of it...hadn't a pandemic of evil pharmacists occurred the last time he tried using that device? It might be best if he took precautions and planned accordingly. If it weren't for the efforts of Phineas and Isabella, Danville would probably still be full of evil pharmacists.
And besides, they recently constructed a path to Middleton from Danville, so it wasn't unlikely that the pandemic would likely end up spreading.
Perhaps he should try setting it to a lower setting. Maybe that way it wouldn't lead to such a disaster. It had almost cost him Vanessa and Perry the Platypus last time.
Quickly, he cranked the valve a few notches lower.
"Fire!" exclaimed Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
Immediately, the device fired on Roger Doofenshmirtz, still oblivious as to what his brother was about to do.
"Hey, they still have that enormous water tower..." noted the evil pharmacist. He wasn't quite sure why his brother had built it, though he would admit that it might come in handy later.
"Citizens of Danville, I have a very important announcement for each of you..."
Suddenly, Roger Doofenshmirtz was hit by the beam. Immediately, a lab coat appeared on him and his skin turned paler.
However, he wasn't the spitting image of Dr. Doofenshmirtz this time.
"Huh. It appears that the lower I turn the setting, the less repulsive they look..." questioned Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
A few seconds later, the device exploded.
"Not again!" bellowed the mad scientist. He didn't get those inators for free.
"...you're all about to become evil pharmacists!" continued the transformed Roger Doofenshmirtz.
"Huh?" asked one of the citizens.
The citizens of Danville were rather confused, to say the very least. What exactly was going on here?
Sure enough, Roger Doofenshmirtz began to attack the citizens that had gathered for the assembly, causing lab coats to appear on them as well whenever he touched them.
It appeared that it was only a matter of time before Roger managed to gather an army. Apparently he was going to serve as their leader since he happened to be mayor.
Perry the Platypus gasped in shock. This was another pandemic! And unfortunately, it appeared that the pharmacists might be dangerous than before, due to the fact that the pharmacists weren't mindless this time. Roger Doofenshmirtz still had his old personality it seemed...though he was now evil.
"This all seems familiar...I think Dr. Drakken and I are going to watch the show!" exclaimed Dr. Doofenshmirtz. He couldn't wait to bring Danville to its knees with his epidemic.
Of course, he might consider trying to cure it eventually...but wouldn't that make him a hero? That would be embarrassing...though he heard a rumor that Shego used to be a good guy.
Dr. Drakken nodded.
Personally, Perry the Platypus thought it was in their best interest to evacuate Danville and flee for the hills...or Dr. Drakken anyway. Last time he checked Dr. Doofenshmirtz was immune to the outbreak since the device basically made more versions of him.
Shego and Norm took Perry and Rufus away and locked them in a cage. Unfortunately, it appeared that they had failed the mission...unless they could find a way to undo what Dr. Doofenshmirtz did. It seemed a bit of a stretch that he happened to have a Beautifulinator, unless for whatever reason Dr. Doofenshmirtz wanted to use it on himself.
"Oh no!" bellowed Rufus. How were they going to break out? And what was going to happen now that everyone in Danville was turning into pharmacists?
Things did not look good for the town.
"At least I don't have to listen to them saying "Lots of me" over and over..." stated Dr. Doofenshmirtz. That would be really annoying.
Oh no! It looks like history is repeating itself! And all of Danville is in danger of becoming Pharmaville...Dr. Doofenshmirtz really needs to be more careful with his inventions, it seems.
In the next chapter...well, things aren't going to get any better, unfortunately. Expect more pharmacists!
