CHAPTER 8: BACK HOME
Calvin's parents saw Calvin riding back home on a wagon. They got out of the house and hugged Calvin.
"I'll never run away again." Calvin said.
"Good." Calvin's dad said.
"Because you're grounded fortwo weeks!"
Calvin groaned.
"You'll never believe it! There weretwo guys who were running after me! If it weren't for Hobbes, we'd still be in New York!"
Those were the police." Calvin's mom explained.
"When I found out that you were missing, I called them to look for you."
Calvin slapped himself in the face.
"I may be grounded for a couple of weeks." Calvin said. "But I'm glad that I'm home again!"
"I wonder what happened to thetwo police guys." Hobbes wondered.
3 HOURS LATER IN NEW YORK…
The police were still unconscious. Just then, another car came. It was the sheriff! He got out of his police car and saw thetwo police man just lying there.
"Gentleman, what are you doing lying on the job?' The sheriff asked.
The police finally got up.
"But, sir…" The police tried to explain.
"But nothing!" The sheriff interrupted.
"You guys are fired! That's the 15th time this week!" The police sadly handed the sheriff their badges, the hat, guns, and the uniform and they sadly drove home.
CALVIN'S ROOM…
"I hope we didn't lose our job." Hobbes said, worried.
"Calvin, you want to come to the movies with us?" Calvin's mom called.
"The movies, oh boy!" Calvin said. "C'mon Hobbes, we're going to the movies!"
