Chapter 18
Joseph and Chris used Joseph's emergency shovel from his ear to dig for Stauf's coffin. At last, they found Stauf's coffin, which was located 7 miles deep in the ground. It looked like an ordinary wooden stained brown coffin, except it had "STAUF" engraved on the lid. Joseph started to climb out of the hole in the ground, leaving Chris behind, when suddenly, Chris pulled him down.
"There is NO WAY you are going to leave me 7 miles down here with an evil man alone in the dark!" Chris said.
"OK, then, I'll have the computer attach the pulley on the ground itself," Joseph said.
"PHEW!" sighed Chris. Joseph pulled a remote control from his ear and pressed the center button. A pulley was beamed where Joseph was, and then, the reel shot up 7 miles to the top of the ground, and then, it attached to the dirt. Then, Joseph put a yellow strap around the coffin. It was wide, smooth, and very shiny. He connected both ends and hooked the hook on the pulley to the hook connection, which was found in between the attachment point.
Then, Joseph and Chris hopped onto the coffin. Then, Joseph pressed a button on the remote control, and then, the pulley lifted the coffin up slowly. Finally, at the end of the ride, Joseph and Chris had successfully lifted Stauf's coffin from 7 miles down.
Then, Joseph and Chris played Spaceboys! They had their ship on the ground, and then, they unhooked Stauf's coffin, loaded it into the ship through the back doors, and then got out, put away the pulley, and filled in the dirt to where they dug.
At last, Joseph and Chris got into their ship and flew into space. The coffin took up just about all of the cargo area in the back of the ship. The cargo area had two double doors in the back and had nothing else back there. They had black seats in the front and many buttons, controls, and gages. It was about the size of a mail truck, and its body was like a plane, except it flew in space.
Once Joseph and Chris were in space, Joseph put the ship on automatic pilot, opened one of the double doors, and went behind the seats again. Joseph pushed Stauf's coffin out of the ship. The coffin headed straight down for heck. Joseph and Chris headed back to Earth.
Meanwhile, a playful scientist was looking through the telescope, when he saw Stauf's coffin flying down from space. "Hey, guys! Look! There's a coffin falling down from space past Earth!" he said. All the people in the library ran to the telescope and looked through it and saw it. "Look, it even has the word 'Stauf'!" the man said. "I guess Stauf has been defeated.
Little did they know that he was not yet defeated because he hadn't landed in heck yet. Suddenly, Stauf appeared in the library. Everyone turned his or her attention to him. "I'm going to get you!" Stauf yelled as he approached the people.
"That's it, the only hope is to tear this place down," someone in the group said. Then, everyone in the library ran past Stauf and left the library. They ran through the foyer, opened the stained-glass door, and drove away to rent a crane with a wrecking ball to destroy the Stauf house.
Meanwhile, Stauf's coffin had passed Earth. Finally, a few miles from heck, Stauf's coffin zoomed down extremely fast, faster than light-speed, and finally disappeared into the huge fires below.
Joseph and Chris had now reentered Earth successfully, and then, they began to zoom down towards the Stauf house. Then, they slowed the vehicle and landed it. Then, they got out and stopped playing Spaceboys. Their spacecraft disappeared in thin air. Then, Joseph and Chris ran up to the house and then discovered that people were about to destroy the Stauf house. A crane drove on the plains by the narrow pathway. The driver set the wrecking ball to swing, and then, Joseph and Chris yelled out, "STAUF HAS BEEN DEFEATED ALREADY!"
The driver looked at the house and said, "Uh-oh." Then, the wrecking ball destroyed part of the house. The driver drove away and left the Stauf property. Then, word about Stauf being defeated went around the house, and at last, everyone except Bob Carmichael and "Old Man" John left. Joseph and Chris thanked everyone for trying to help.
Then, the raining stopped, and then, the clouds drifted away, and the sun shone on the dark area. Then, Joseph, Chris, "Old Man" John, and Bob Carmichael got on the roof and fixed the destroyed house using the same parts that were destroyed, except they restored them to like-new condition. They were glad Stauf was gone. Now, they could live there again.
