14AmyChan: okay~! New fanfic~!

Phineas: Well, this idea's been around for a long time

14AmyChan: Sorry, I just hadn't gotten to it yet…

Phineas: In this story, the gang and myself are thirteen.

14AmyChan: and Phineas still is oblivious… XD

Phineas: what?

14AmyChan: Please enjoy~! Me no own-y~! *^_^*

"Finished!" Phineas Flynn exclaimed proudly as he double checked his handiwork. This was the first time in a longtime he'd invented without his brother, Ferb, but the green haired boy was currently hanging out with some girl. If Phineas recalled correctly, her name was Vanessa.

In fact, everyone had had plans today that the red headed teen was unaware of. At thirteen years of age, everyone's schedules had filled up fairly quickly. Ferb had been planning this outing with Vanessa for a few weeks now, Isabella had family coming over and had stayed home with them, and Buford and Baljeet had needed to go to a Bully/Nerd camp for a few weeks.

Phineas felt more than a little lonely without his friends and his brother, but that hadn't stopped him from attempting to have the best day ever. Fiddling with the settings on his new device, he attempted to think about the new invention, rather than his friends.

What he had in his hands was the newest form of personality testing. It scanned you for your traits, asked you a few questions, and then—the best part of all—actually turned you into the animal you are most like. And when you were done with being an animal, all you had to do was press a button on the side—or in the remote Phineas had built separately—and you would be transformed back into your human self.

Turning the machine on, Phineas allowed it to scan him. He watched as the blue scanning device passed over his body. Then, a holographic screen came up and showed a question.

1) What are some of your best qualities? Answer up to five and at least one.
Energetic
Creative
Sneaky
Attentive
Kind
Helpful
Smart
Your face

Phineas smiled and thought about it for a bit. The questions had been pulled randomly from the internet, and he had no idea what he'd be asked. He reached up and chose "Energetic", "Creative", and "Helpful", because that's what he thought of himself. Ferb had told him on more than one occasion that he had more energy than anyone he'd ever known, his mom had told him he was extremely creative whenever he told her of the inventions he and his brother made, and most of the ideas he came up with were to help others.

2) Which animal do you like best?
Dog
Cat
Snake
Sheep
Tiger
Wolf

Though disappointed that the options didn't include "Platypus", Phineas went on to choose his second favorite animal. He loved dogs. He thought they were energetic and fun.

3) Are you in love?
Yes
No
I don't know

"Where did that come from?" Phineas couldn't help but ask aloud. Though confused at why the machine had chosen this question, he reached immediately for the "No" option, but hesitated for some reason. It didn't feel right. He pulled back and thought about it for a minute. What was love? He hadn't felt anything like the movies and books portrayed, and that was what love was, right?

Some part in his chest didn't agree with that logical statement. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. He wasn't sure what love was. When he looked at his parents—well, they were in love—yet they weren't like what you see in the movies. They were more like best friends, weren't they?

If that were the case, then he could say he were in love, but he still wasn't sure about it. He didn't want to say "yes" if he weren't and "no" if he were. So he answered with the "I don't know" option.

With that, the invention deemed the quiz over and shot a small lazer at Phineas. It didn't hurt, more like it tingled a lot. However, before the machine had finished, it got hit by a lazer from the side, which caused it to explode.

"That doesn't happen every day…" Phineas mused before wiping soot off his face with a normal human hand. He examined himself to see that he hadn't changed in the slightest. "Looks like I'm most like a human… huh…"

A chattering from the side caught Phineas attention and he saw his mindless teal pet platypus waddle into the back yard. His face split into a huge grin.

"Oh, there you are, Perry," Phineas said, finally relieved that he didn't have to spend the rest of the afternoon by himself. He picked up the animal and took him inside the house, just barely missing the inevitable "Curse you Perry the Platypus" in the background.

14AmyChan: Okay, a bit long to be a prologue, but that's kinda where a lot of things stand at the beginning of this story. *^_^*

Phineas: *is so confused*

14AmyChan: To un-confuse Phineas, please read and review~! *^_^*
