Calvin's bike, now a colossal metal giant, was chasing after Calvin, Hobbes, Dorie, Reanne, and Mirabelle. As it ran after them, it crushed the buildings beneath him. The gang flew off into the forest where the giant couldn't find them to catch their breath.

"Okay, that is not a bike. That's a homicidal tower of destruction!"

"Now how are we going to stop it?" asked Hobbes.

"I don't know. How do you stop a giant metal bike?"

Suddenly, Calvin's eyes lit up "I know! With water!"

"Huh?"

"Don't you remember how we stopped that huge Snow Goon before? I splashed water on it and it froze up! That's how we stop my bike! We lure it into our trap, we hit it with a water gun, and then we remove the Grobbling and save the town!"

"Good idea, Calvin! Alright, let's crush this two-wheeled nightmare!"

The gang put their plan into action. Mirabelle ran into town dressed up in a big hamburger suit "This is so embarrassing." she thought. She ran up to the bike "Hey, bike! Are you hungry?"

Calvin's bike turned around and got a eyeful of Mirabelle "Yummy." it bellowed "Good burger."

It started to run after Mirabelle, who was now running towards the beach. She got out a walkie-talkie "Dorie, get ready to spray him with water!"

Meanwhile, Dorie was on a rooftop with a giant squirt gun "OK, Mirabelle, keep distracting it."

Dorie got a good aim at the monster's legs and shot it with water. A stream of liquid shot out of the gun and hit the bike's legs, but it didn't rust up!

"That's not right! It didn't rust him!"

"I guess we need more water to rust him up." said Reanne on the walkie-talkie "But how are we going to...wait! The ocean! Hey, Calvin!"

"Yeah?"

"Untie the big ribbon from the bikeathon starting line and tie one end to that lamp post, and the other end to the other lamp post!"

"Gotcha! I'm on my way now!"

Calvin ran to the starting line and untied the big ribbon. As he was untying it, his bike saw him and started to attack him. It slammed it's fist down, but Calvin jumped out of the way in time "It ends here, bike! I've had enough of your tricks, and today is the day I end your reign of terror once and for all!"

Calvin's bike ignored him and picked him up "I don't think so. As soon as I eat you, I will rule Port Mystic, and soon the entire planet!"

The bike opened his mouth and prepared to eat Calvin.

"Let me go! Help! Help!"

Calvin was about to get tossed in until something small darted past and knocked Calvin out of the bike's hand. Calvin fell to the ground, but the small thing caught him before he hit the ground. It was Vivi!

"Vivi! Thanks for saving me, little bud!"

"Vivi! Vivi Vi!" Vivi squeaked with joy.

The huge bike stomped forward and tried to get Calvin again.

"Vi! Vivi Vivi Vi!" said Vivi.

"What? You're going to untie the ribbon while I head to the lamp posts?"

"Vivi!"

"Okay, be careful, Vivi!"

The giant bike went after Calvin while Vivi untied the ribbon. Once it was undone, Vivi flew off to give Calvin the ribbon.

"Thanks, Vivi!"

Just then, the bike reached for Calvin, but Vivi grabbed him and flew him ahead. Calvin met up with Hobbes, Dorie, Mirabelle, and Reanne at the lamp posts.

"Ok, Calvin. Tie the ribbon's ends just like I told you to and we can finally stop this thing for good!"

"Got it!"

"Vivi! Vivi!"

Calvin ran to each end and tied down the ribbon. He made it with no time to spare, the monster ran up, but he tripped and fell smack into the ocean. It made a huge splash and started to rust.

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!" it roared out one last time before it shriveled up into a normal bike. It rusted up, and soon the tide scooped it up and drifted it out to sea.

"It's done." smiled Calvin "My bike is finally dead. Now it can never again haunt me!"

"Wait! We forgot to remove the Grobbling!" gasped Dorie.

"No need." said Hobbes "So long as the bike is rusted up and sunk to the bottom of the ocean, it could never find us."

"Amen to that." panted Feradagio.

Later, Calvin and Hobbes had to go home again. But just before they left, they saw something big coming down from the sky in a beautiful shine of light.

"It's Queen Lumina." said Loreli.

Her carriage stopped on the ground "I would like to thank you, boy, for saving us all three times in a row."

"Uh...you're welcome." stammered Calvin.

"As a token of my gratitude, please take this valuable golden spelldrop pendant."

Calvin took the pendant and looked at it "This is cool! How much do you think I could make off of it?"

"Oh, It's not for selling. That very pendant is a one-of-a-kind treasure. Never sell it, and good magic will protect you for as long as you possess it. Take good care of it, and thanks again."

The Queen took off in a flash of light.

"Good magic, huh? That sounds even better!"

Calvin and Hobbes waved goodbye and took of into the sky.

"I wonder what kind of luck that thing will give you." said Hobbes on the way home.

"The kind of magic that will keep that bike away from me for eternity, I hope!"

Five years later, Calvin's bike washed up on the shores of Thailand.

"Grandfather! Grandfather!" said a passing boy "Look at this!"

The child's grandfather came up to the bike and examined it "This is just rusted-up American junk. Come along, now."

"Awwww, grandfather!"

As the boy walked away, the rust broke off of the handlebars, and they glowed eerily.

...The End?
