Chapter Seven: Coming Home
Everyone celebrated once Sid ran into his house. Woody said thank you to all the toys when I reminded the two that I was still here. Woody and Buzz climbed up to me and I thanked them for this. But we have bigger problems. Andy is about to leave! Woody took me off of my makeshift stand and we started to run for the van. The boys went ahead but I got stuck in the fence thanks to this rocket. I told them to go while I caught up. But they jumped off the van and helped me instead! And the van was gone by the time we got onto the road.
And we had to quickly duck because the moving van soon followed. Buzz helped me up and we started running after the moving van. There's a rope dangling from the van so we can grab onto that. Buzz got on first, then me, and then Woody. But here comes trouble. The dog! It was chasing us! The dog took a hold of Woody's leg and held on. Woody tried to kick it but he started to slowly slip down the rope. Woody's dying wish was for us to take care of Andy for him.
Not going to happen! Buzz jumped off the van and started attacking the dog. He let go of Woody but Buzz was still on the dog. Woody climbed up and started to open the moving van. It flew open when the van came to a stop. Woody threw off a box that was on top of a box saying 'Andy's Toys'. I think I know what he's after. I helped him open the box but what we were looking for wasn't in there.
Well, there was a second one and we found RC. I helped Woody take him out of the box and out of the truck. But the others seriously thought we were killing another toy! We're not! Woody took control of RC who sped over to Buzz and the dog. RC went under a car so we couldn't see him. But we have even more problems. The toys were trying to get us! I told Woody to hurry up with getting Buzz back.
RC came out from under the car with Buzz on his back and the dog chasing him. Meanwhile, all the toys were attacking us while we were trying to explain what we were doing. But they didn't hold back at all. Mr. Potato Head told them to throw us overboard so they did. Oh, great. I'm holding a grudge against these guys for a long time if they see we weren't lying! We avoided an ongoing car when RC hit us, getting us on the back.
With Buzz too! Woody started driving and speeding to the van. As we got closer, one of the toys lowered the ramp for us to get on. But we had to jump back a bit because the ramp almost crushed us! Slinky came down to help and Woody grabbed a hold of his paw. But we slowly started to back away from the truck. I told Buzz to speed up but RC's battery was running low! No! Not now! We're almost home!
Soon, Slink just couldn't hold on any longer and sprung back into the van and we came to a stop. This can't be it, can it? Wait, the rocket! I told them about it and Woody remembered that Sid gave him a match! I didn't notice that but thank goodness! Woody lit the match and was ready to light the fuse but a car drove past and the flame went out. That was our last chance! No!
Just as Woody and Buzz were feeling depressed about all this, Woody suddenly grabbed Buzz and used his helmet to light the fuse! And it worked! I got behind Buzz and Woody went in front of him. But hold on, rockets explode. Did we just make a mistake? We were off before we could think about that. I held into Buzz as we zoomed over to the moving van.
The rocket went faster to the point we were flying. When we got high enough, Woody threw RC into the moving van and we went up into the sky. Woody was convinced that this was the part where we blew up. Nope because I have an idea. I activated Buzz's wings, used my sword to cut the tame that attached me to the rocket, and we started falling. That was until Buzz started flying on his own!
"Buzz, you're flying!" Woody said smiling.
"This isn't flying. This is falling with style!" Buzz said smiling
"Darn right!" I said smiling and holding onto my hat
This is great! Woody let his arms out to feel like he was flying too. We flew over the moving van and landed through the sunroof of Andy's car. We landed in a box where Andy looked in and saw the three of us safe and sound. This was a great adventure.
(Christmas Day)
It's our first Christmas in the new house. In the Christmas spirit, Andy had put me in my Masquerade outfit which happened to be red. It's called the Red Death costume so I don't think it's Christmasy but Andy doesn't know that. But no one seemed to be worried about being replaced this time. Buzz had finally grown accustomed to the toy life and took off his helmet.
Everyone was excited to hear what new toys Andy had gotten this year. Well, all except Buzz who seemed worried. We got the good news that Mr. Potato Head would finally have a Mrs. At last! Bo mentioned to me that maybe I would get someone too. Like a Christopher or an Adele. I think I'm alright for now. I still have a slight grudge about Adele anyway.
I'm just glad to say we had two presents that would be very interesting. A new puppy and an action figure which sounded like my brand. It was an action figure called Lady America. A female version of Captain America. Whoever that is. But it really sounds like the toy brands are running out of ideas. All I'm hoping is that this action figure doesn't have, what I'm calling, Buzz fever. If she does, this should be fun.
