Stuck - Perry the Platypus x Reader

13. The Aftermath of Messing With a Stupid Genius's Science Experiment

You found yourself in Perry's little spy hideout. He'd rush by every once in a while, bringing water and other things he'd stolen from his household, but for the most part just sat with you. You soon ended up in the middle of a pile of junk the poor platypus thought would comfort you. And maybe it would have under different circumstances. Getting a hold of your feelings wasn't easy, but at some point all the copious amounts of tears dried up and left you feeling numb.

You sat there on the floor for who knows how long. Until you came rising from a long nap. Parched, you picked up the water Perry got for you out of desperation.

Little did you know what chaos would ensue. In an instant you'd shape-shifted into tens of different animals. Unable to grasp the situation, the glass crashed to the floor. Leaving behind a thousand splintering pieces. The bang made the platypus jump and you retreated to a different corner, ready to start crying again.

Then, anger. Why'd Doofenschmirtz just leave that out? Why were you stupid enough to get dunked in his middle school science experiments? How was the only one left to comfort you a platypus?

You stood up and went straight to Perry's jet pack. The Platypus looked up from the shards he was collecting for just a moment before he witnessed you zoom away without warning. Sure, he almost got toppled over in the process, but he was more worried about what you were going to do. And a big heart broken that you left him behind.

🎶 Doofenschmirtz Evi—

"Ah, shut up," you grumbled, not in the mood. Rather than knocking on the door, you pulled a Perry and just kicked it down. Surprisingly effective.

"Perr— oh, it's you."

"Yes, it's me," you growled through gritted teeth. You grabbed his lab coat and pushed him to the wall, his feet not on the the ground anymore. "What did you do to me?" You nearly ripped through his collar with the talons that grew over your fingers.

"I was getting to that, no use if you claw me to death," he said, no fear in his voice whatsoever.

"Ugh," you put him down, crossing your arms impatiently.

"Now," he dusted his coat off and walked to the machine. "This—" he picked up a vile, "—is a solution that can turn a person into an animal. Usually, when you enter the transforminator, it sprays a concentrated chemical of one kind of animal. You got covered with all of the animals I had."

"So, can't you just turn me back into a regular human?"

"Well..." he drawled, "I don't exactly have a "human" solution. I made the opposite of the individual animals in case I wanted to turn the squirrels back into inators."

"So?"

"So, I can't change you back unless you change into every animal there is and I use the exact opposite of that specific animal every time."

"So... I'm stuck like this?"

"Just about that, yes."

That was it?

In a fit of rage you somehow destroyed his inator and left. Sure, jumping out the balcony probably wasn't a good idea, but when your instructs miraculously turned you into a raven, it didn't seem like much of a threat.
