Chapter 9:

Battling to Rescue

All of the GROSS was on board the flagship.

They had named the flagship King GROSS VII (instead of the Queen Mary II).

They were flying really slowly (which was actually very fast compared to a car) towards there own base.

"40 yards away sir" said the radar man.

"A little closer" said Hobbes, who was driving the flagship.

Then suddenly, the flagship took a drop, colliding with into the GROSS base's left side.

"Move out, move out" said Hobbes.

They began to charge through the corridors of the base.

Everyone was shooting, and everyone was being shot at.

"ANYONE WHO IS HIT GO BACK TO THE FLAGSHIP" said Hobbes.

Susie and Candace were sitting in the battle room of the GROSS base, listening to the room monitors.

"They found the flagship" said Candace.

"They must be planning to fly to Mars" said Susie, in a very upset tone.

"We can't let them get away" said Susie, "Tell Squads 4, 5, and 6 to board the flagship, shooting anyone in their way".

The squads began to move.

Hobbes and Squad #2 had found the room Calvin had been in.

"Water, water, water" said Calvin, sounding hypnotized.

"Get him out of here" said Hobbes.

A voice came in on Hobbes' walkie talkie "Hobbes, the girls seem to be boarding the flag..." said the voice, but then there was the sound of a water balloon hitting him.

"Oh shoot, hurry men, we have to get back to the flagship" said Hobbes "Squads 1,3,4,5,6,7,8, and 9, hurry back to the flagship" said Hobbes on his walkie-talkie.

They began to run threw the hallways, Calvin, begging to be himself again.

"HURRY, PREPARE TO FIGHT FOR ALL THE TV'S AND JUNK FOOD ON MARS" screamed Hobbes as they were running.

They were stunned when they saw all of the P.A. boarding the flagship.

"FIRE AT WILL" screamed Hobbes, and thousands of water balloons and slush balls flew at the flagship.

The results were devastating.

The boys didn't know that almost half of the water balloons and slush balls were flying at them (so they were from the girls), and the boys were right on target with the girls.

The remaining boys began to charge into the flagship as the girls were reloading.

There were water balloons and slush balls flying everywhere, girls and boys falling to the ground.

Then suddenly, Calvin and Hobbes led a group of about 150 boys to this very big escape pod in the back of the flagship.

But then there was a yell.

"THE GIRLS HAVE GIVEN UP, THEY ARE LEAVING THE FLAGSHIP, HURRY BACK" said a voice.

The group ran back and boarded the flagship.

Then they were flying in space.

There had been about 300 girls hiding inside a room in the flagship, but there was no sign of Susie or Candace.

They landed on Mars.

The boys and girls on the flagship had formed a peace.
