Creating The Strongest Familia In Danmachi

Chapter 28: Chapter 28



As Hestia, Lunamon, and I stepped through the portal, we found ourselves in a bustling suburban town. The streets were lined with quaint houses, and towering above them all was the iconic Danville water tower. Hestia's eyes widened as she took in the unfamiliar surroundings.

"David-kun, what kind of world is this?" she asked, her voice filled with wonder.

I grinned, gesturing around us. "Welcome to the Tri-State Area, Hestia! This is the world of Phineas and Ferb - a place where two stepbrothers spend their endless summer vacation creating the most incredible, mind-bending inventions you've ever seen."

Lunamon's ears perked up, and she gazed around curiously. "Inventions? You think we can find the help we need here to renovate our church back home?"

I nodded enthusiastically. "Absolutely! Phineas and Ferb are engineering prodigies, capable of building anything from roller coasters to time machines. If anyone can help us modernize our new Familia headquarters, it's them."

Hestia clasped her hands together, her eyes shining with excitement. "Oh, David-kun, this is wonderful! I can't wait to meet these inventors and see what kind of amazing things they can create."

I chuckled, gesturing for them to follow me. "Then let's not waste any time. I have a feeling Phineas and Ferb are just the people we need to turn our humble church into a true home for the Hestia Familia."

As we made our way through the charming suburban streets, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. This world, with its vibrant colors and whimsical atmosphere, reminded me of the carefree days of my childhood, when anything seemed possible. I couldn't wait to see what kind of adventure awaited us here.

Suddenly, a loud noise echoed from a nearby backyard, followed by the sound of excited laughter. Hestia jumped, her eyes wide with alarm, but I just grinned.

"Sounds like our new friends are hard at work," I said, quickening my pace. "Come on, let's go introduce ourselves!"

I led Hestia and Lunamon through the bustling suburban streets, our footsteps quickening as we approached the source of the commotion. Rounding the corner, we found ourselves in a backyard filled with activity. A large truck was unloading piles of sand, and a young boy with a distinctive triangular-shaped head stood nearby, signing documents.

"Aren't you a little young to be a landscape contractor?" a man asked, eyeing the boy skeptically.

The boy looked up, a confident grin spreading across his face. "Yes, yes I am," he replied, his voice brimming with enthusiasm.

Hestia turned to me, her eyes wide with curiosity. "David, is that Phineas?" she whispered.

I nodded, a smile tugging at the corners of my mouth. "Yes, that's him. Doesn't he have a weird-shaped head?"

Hestia's brow furrowed as she studied the boy. "Yes, yes he does," she murmured, her tone a mix of amusement and wonder.

I approached the young boy with the distinctive triangular head, Hestia and Lunamon following closely behind me. "Excuse me," I called out, waving to get his attention. "Are you Phineas?"

The boy turned, his bright blue eyes sparkling with energy. "Why, yes I am!" he exclaimed, a wide grin spreading across his face. "And who might you be?"

"I'm David Miller, and these are my companions, Hestia and Lunamon," I introduced, gesturing to the goddess and Digimon beside me.

Hestia stepped forward, her curiosity evident in her expression. "Phineas, what are you doing here?" she asked, her gaze sweeping across the bustling backyard.

Phineas beamed, his enthusiasm palpable. "Building a beach, of course!" he declared, waving a hand towards the growing expanse of sand.

I followed Hestia's gaze, my eyes landing on a tall, green-haired boy standing on an oversized water sprinkler. As I watched, the sprinkler burst to life, spraying water in all directions and creating a shallow pool of water amidst the sand.

"And that's my brother, Ferb," Phineas continued, gesturing towards the silent boy. "He's the one in charge of the water system."

Ferb gave a small wave, his expression serene as he tended to the sprinkler.

"A beach?" Hestia repeated, her brow furrowed in confusion. "But why would you build a beach in your backyard?"

Phineas chuckled, as if the answer were obvious. "Because it's summer, and we have to make the most of it!" he exclaimed. "There's no better way to spend our vacation than by creating our own private beach paradise."

I watched as a young girl with long dark hair and a bright pink bow approached Phineas, her face lit up with a warm smile.

"Hey Phineas," she said, her voice bubbly and cheerful.

Phineas turned to her, his own expression brightening. "Hey, Isabella."

"Whatcha doin'?" Isabella asked, her gaze sweeping across the bustling backyard.

"Building a beach," Phineas replied, his tone brimming with excitement. He gestured to the piles of sand being unloaded by the truck.

I stepped forward, giving Isabella a friendly smile. "Hi there, I'm David Miller. And this is Hestia and Lunamon," I said, gesturing to my companions.

Isabella's eyes widened as she took in Hestia's petite figure and Lunamon's soft lavender fur. "It's nice to meet you!" she exclaimed, her voice brimming with warmth. "I'm Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, the leader of the Fireside Girls troop."

Hestia moved closer, her gaze curious. "Fireside Girls?" she repeated, the unfamiliar term rolling off her tongue.

"It's a group of young girls who work together to earn badges and help our community," Isabella explained, her expression brightening. "We're always looking for new members, if you're interested."

I watched as Isabella's gaze settled on Lunamon, her eyes widening with curiosity. "What is she?" she asked, her voice filled with wonder.

Phineas, ever the observant one, also turned his attention to Lunamon, his expression a mix of fascination and excitement. "Wow, I've never seen a creature like that before," he exclaimed, stepping closer to get a better look.

I couldn't help but smile at their reactions. "Lunamon is a Digimon," I explained, hoping to provide some context for their new furry friend. "She's a digital monster from another world, and she's joined us on our little adventure."

Lunamon shuffled shyly, her large blue eyes blinking up at Phineas and Isabella. "It's nice to meet you," she said softly, her voice carrying a gentle, melodic quality.

Isabella and Phineas both exclaimed "Cool!" in unison, their faces lighting up with excitement.

Isabella then turned to Phineas, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. "Hey Phineas, do you think the Fireside Girls could be lifeguards for your beach? That way we could earn our aquatic safety badges!"

Phineas beamed, clearly thrilled by the idea. "Sure,"

I watched the exchange, a small smile playing on my lips. It was refreshing to see such genuine excitement and camaraderie. Hestia seemed equally intrigued, her gaze darting between Phineas, Isabella, and Ferb as they discussed the plans.

As Isabella dashed off to gather her Fireside Girls, I turned to Phineas, eager to lend a hand. "Hey, Phineas, is there anything Hestia, Lunamon, and I can do to help with your beach project?"

Phineas beamed, his eyes lighting up at the offer. "That would be amazing, David! There's plenty to do - we could use some extra hands to carry the beach supplies."

I nodded, already feeling the excitement bubbling up inside me. "Lead the way, then. We're happy to pitch in however we can."

Phineas quickly directed us to a pile of large, carved stone faces, each one intricately detailed. "These are going to be our beach tiki torches," he explained. "If you and Hestia can grab a couple of those, that would be a big help."

I glanced over at Hestia, who was already eyeing the stone faces with a mix of curiosity and determination. "You heard the man, Hestia," I said with a grin. "Let's get to work."

Together, Hestia and I hoisted up the heavy stone figures, marveling at the craftsmanship. As we carried them across the yard, I couldn't help but steal a few glances at Phineas and his brother Ferb, who seemed to be effortlessly moving around the space, directing the construction of their beach paradise.

My attention was drawn to Ferb as he approached, a large beach umbrella in one hand and a... "Is that a live dolphin?" I asked, my eyes widening in disbelief.

Ferb simply nodded, a serene expression on his face as he gently placed the dolphin on the sand. I shook my head, amazed by the sheer scale and creativity of their project.

"This is incredible," Hestia murmured, her gaze sweeping across the bustling backyard. "I've never seen anything like this before."

I chuckled, carefully setting down the stone face. "Welcome to the world of Phineas and Ferb, Hestia. Where the impossible becomes reality."

As Phineas asked "Hey, where's Perry?", I turned to Hestia, curious to see her reaction. The goddess's brow furrowed in confusion as she looked around.

"Perry? Who is Perry?" Hestia asked, her gaze shifting between Phineas and me.

Phineas grinned, seemingly unfazed by Hestia's puzzled expression. "Perry is our pet platypus! He's always disappearing, but he always comes back. He's pretty special."

I watched as Hestia's eyes widened in surprise. "A platypus? As a pet?" She shook her head slightly, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "In my world, platypuses are quite rare and unusual creatures."

Phineas nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah, Perry's one-of-a-kind! He's pretty special to us. I'm sure he's just off doing his own thing, like he always does."

Hestia hummed thoughtfully, her gaze scanning the bustling backyard. "Well, I look forward to meeting this mysterious platypus of yours, Phineas. He sounds quite intriguing."

When Phineas mentioned Perry, I was filled with excitement. When I was young and watched the Phineas and Ferb series, I had always been fascinated by Perry and his secret life as a spy. Now, to have the chance to actually see him in person was almost too good to be true.

"A platypus, huh?" I said, trying to contain my excitement. "That's pretty cool. I'd love to meet him if you don't mind."

Phineas grinned. "Of course! Perry's around here somewhere. He tends to wander off, but he always comes back. I'm sure he'll turn up soon."

I nodded, my mind already racing with the possibilities. If Perry was anything like his animated counterpart, he must have an incredible secret base hidden somewhere. The thought of being able to explore it firsthand had my heart racing.

"Excuse me, I think I need to use the restroom," I said, already starting to inch away. "I'll be right back."

Without waiting for a response, I quickly found a secluded corner and focused on my ghostly powers. In an instant, I felt myself become invisible and intangible. Phasing through the ground, I descended into the earth, my senses heightened as I searched for any sign of Perry's lair.

The further I went, the more my excitement grew. I could feel the energy of the secret base all around me, and I knew I was getting closer.

I descended deeper into the earth, my ghostly form phasing through the soil until I reached a hidden entrance. Carefully, I slipped through the opening, my eyes widening as I took in the incredible sight before me.

Perry the Platypus's Secret Base was a marvel of technology and design. Sleek metal panels lined the walls, with screens and monitors displaying various data streams. In the center stood a large, circular platform that I assumed was the command center.

As I explored the lair, I couldn't help but chuckle at the scaled-down furniture and gadgets. Everything was perfectly sized for a platypus, from the miniature chairs to the tiny computer terminals. It was both highly advanced and undeniably adorable.

I ran my fingers along the smooth surfaces, marveling at the intricate engineering. This place was a testament to the sheer ingenuity of its creator, and I couldn't help but wonder what other secrets it might hold.

Cautiously, I made my way towards the central platform, my curiosity piqued. I had to resist the urge to touch the various controls and displays, knowing that I shouldn't disturb anything without permission. Still, the temptation to uncover more of this hidden world was overwhelming.

As I explored Perry's secret base, I couldn't help but be amazed by the sheer ingenuity and attention to detail that had gone into its design. This wasn't just some simple hideout - it was a highly sophisticated command center, equipped with the latest in spy technology.

From what I knew of the Phineas and Ferb universe, Perry was no ordinary pet platypus. He was in fact a secret agent, code-named "Agent P," who worked for a covert organization called the O.W.C.A. (Organization Without a Cool Acronym). His mission was to thwart the schemes of the bumbling mad scientist, Dr. Doofenshmirtz, who was constantly cooking up elaborate plots to take over the Tri-State Area.

As I watched in awe, a tube suddenly opened up in the corner of the room, and a platypus emerged, wearing a sleek brown fedora hat. My eyes widened as I realized this must be Perry, the secret agent platypus I had heard so much about.

Quickly, I turned invisible, not wanting to be caught snooping around his secret base. I observed as Perry settled into a chair in front of a large central screen, the fedora hat perfectly perched atop his head.

Perry was a remarkable sight to behold. His fur was a soft, teal color, and he carried himself with a distinct air of professionalism and purpose. His eyes were sharp and focused, and I could sense an underlying strength and agility in his movements.

Suddenly, the screen flickered to life, and a stern-looking man with a thick mustache appeared. "Good morning, Agent P," the man said, his voice carrying a tone of authority.

I listened intently as the man, whom I assumed was Monogram, the head of the O.W.C.A., briefed Perry on a new mission. Apparently, lawn gnomes were disappearing all across the Tri-State Area, leaving countless gardens unprotected from "the evils of black magic." Monogram suspected that Doofenshmirtz, the bumbling mad scientist, was behind the disappearances.

Perry listened intently, his eyes narrowing with determination. When Monogram finished, the platypus agent saluted and promptly left, disappearing down a secret tunnel. I couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement - this was the moment I had been waiting for.

As Perry's footsteps faded, I heard a faint melody playing in the background, a catchy tune that seemed to perfectly capture the essence of his secret agent persona. [Agent P~]

I couldn't help but be intrigued by the catchy melody playing in the background of Perry's secret lair. It seemed to perfectly capture the essence of the suave secret agent before me. However, as tempting as it was to investigate further, I knew I needed to follow Perry and see where his mission would lead.

Staying invisible, I quietly phased through the tunnel, following closely behind the teal-furred platypus as he made his way to the surface. I emerged in a quaint suburban backyard, my eyes scanning the area for any sign of Perry's movements.

Spotting a nearby garden, I noticed a collection of lawn gnomes lining the flower beds. An idea quickly formed in my mind, and with a flick of my ghostly powers, I transformed into one of the statues, blending seamlessly into the surrounding decor.

It wasn't long before Perry arrived. He posed as a lawn gnome, complete with a beard and pointy hat. Suddenly, the ground beneath him opened up, and the platypus agent was swallowed into the earth. Without hesitation, I followed suit, plunging down the hidden tunnel.

As I followed Perry down the hidden tunnel, I found myself in an underground cave filled with hundreds of lawn gnomes. Towering above them all was a gigantic vacuum cleaner, its nozzle attached to the ceiling. The words "D.E. Inc." were clearly visible on the side of the machine.

In the center of the room stood a lanky man with disheveled brown hair, wearing a white lab coat. I recognized him instantly - Dr. Doofenshmirtz, the bumbling mad scientist from the Phineas and Ferb cartoon I had grown to love.

Despite his villainous ambitions, there was always something endearing about Doofenshmirtz. His over-the-top schemes, his comical backstory, and his surprisingly tender relationship with his daughter Vanessa made him a memorable character. I had to stifle a chuckle as I watched him rant and rave, his arms flailing dramatically.

As I watched from my hiding spot, disguised as a lawn gnome, I couldn't help but chuckle at the familiar scene unfolding before me. Dr. Doofenshmirtz, the bumbling mad scientist, had just picked up one of the lawn gnomes, completely unaware that it was actually Perry the Platypus in disguise.

"Oh, this is a strange one," Doofenshmirtz muttered, examining the lawn gnome closely.

In a flash, Perry revealed his true identity, punching Doofenshmirtz square in the face and knocking him down to the ground.

"Wait, who are you?!" Doofenshmirtz cried out, clearly caught off guard.

Quickly, Perry removed the fake beard and pointy hat he had been wearing, exposing his true platypus form.

"A platypus?" Doofenshmirtz said, his eyes widening in surprise.

With a flourish, Perry placed his signature brown fedora hat back on his head, the perfect finishing touch to his secret agent persona.

"Perry the Platypus!" Doofenshmirtz exclaimed, his voice a mix of shock and exasperation.

I couldn't help but chuckle at the scene unfolding before me. Watching the dynamic between Perry and Doofenshmirtz always brought a smile to my face. Despite the mad scientist's grandiose schemes, Perry always managed to outsmart him in the most comical and entertaining ways.

As I watched the scene unfold before me, concealed within my lawn gnome disguise, I couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and concern. Perry the Platypus, the daring secret agent I had grown to admire, found himself trapped by the bumbling schemes of Dr. Doofenshmirtz.

Doof reveals a remote. "You are mine now."

My eyes widened as Doofenshmirtz brandished the remote, a triumphant grin spreading across his face. I braced myself, wondering what the mad scientist had in store for the captive Perry.

The remote opens the garage door behind Perry. "Oh no no no wait wait. That was the garage door opening."

I stifled a chuckle as Doofenshmirtz's plan went awry, the remote opening the wrong door. His exasperated reaction was exactly as I had expected, a testament to the character's endearing incompetence.

Doof reveals another remote. "You are mine, now!"

Doofenshmirtz, undeterred, pulled out a second remote, his eyes gleaming with determination. I leaned forward, curious to see what would happen next.

The large TV turns on. "And that was the TV remote. I got to start labeling these things."

Another failed attempt, and Doofenshmirtz's frustration was palpable. I shook my head, amused by his repeated blunders, yet also impressed by his persistence.

Doof reveals one final remote. "You are mine now!"

A pet carrier suddenly came crashing down, trapping the unsuspecting Perry underneath.

"Finally, I will rid myself of you!" Doofenshmirtz exclaimed, an evil grin spreading across his face. "But first. Turn your attention to the giant screen and—"

He pressed a button on the remote, but instead of turning on the TV, the garage door simply opened with a loud creak. Doofenshmirtz paused, his brow furrowing in confusion.

"Hmm? Maybe I need to turn on the cable on first?" he muttered, scratching his head.

I couldn't hold back my laughter any longer. Doofenshmirtz's complete lack of organization and foresight was just too much. I shook my head, realizing that I had been gone for far too long, leaving Phineas and Ferb to handle their own affairs. As much as I was enjoying the show, I knew I needed to get back and lend a hand.

Confident that Perry would find a way to escape Doofenshmirtz's bumbling attempts, I turned and headed back towards the Flynn-Fletcher household.

As I arrived back at the Flynn-Fletcher household, Hestia greeted me with a curious expression. "David, what took you so long in the toilet?" she asked, her eyebrows furrowed.

I quickly racked my brain for an excuse. "Oh, you know, I just went exploring a bit, checking out the place," I said, flashing her a sheepish grin.

Hestia studied me for a moment, her eyes narrowing slightly. I could tell she was a bit suspicious, but thankfully, she decided to let it go. "Well, now that you're back, I need you to help me carry some heavy loads," she said, gesturing towards a stack of boxes in the corner.

I nodded, relieved that the conversation had shifted. "No problem, Hestia," I replied, stepping forward to grab the boxes. The weight of them caught me off guard, and I grunted as I hefted them up, my arms straining. "Whew, these are really heavy," I said, trying to keep my voice steady.

As I followed Hestia to our designated storage area, I couldn't help but wonder what other adventures might be in store for us. But for now, my focus was on completing this task and avoiding any further questioning from the ever-observant goddess.
