Chapter 21 - Homeward Bound
They wrapped Mojo up in wire and rope and flew towards La Paz University and Professor Gershwin's lab. They dumped Mojo into the shipping box they had arrived in, slammed the lid, and turned the lock.
"Oh, wait a sec." Brick said. He opened the box and Mojo looked up at him.
"You reconsidered?" Mojo asked.
Brick paused and furrowed his brow. He ripped the inside release handle out of the box and turned back to Mojo. "Nope."
He slammed the lid back over Mojo and relocked the box.

They flew over Townsville carrying the metal shipping box with them. The people of Townsville pointed to the streaks of colour in the sky. "Look, they're back!" one man exclaimed. The people below cheered them on as they dropped the shipping box through the roof of Townsville Penitentiary. It landed with a crash in the lobby as several police officers appeared to drag it to one of the jail cells.
