CHAPTER 8: GOING BACK HOME

The toys were on their way back to Bonnie's house, bringing Timothy with them. Timothy flew through Bonnie's bedroom window inside an empty, tidied room of hers, and he landed on the floor. Woody and their friends hopped off Timothy, and Bonnie's toys carried Bullseye inside the closet and closed its doors shut to aid Bullseye by fixing and stitching him on his ripped chest carefully and cautiously without Bonnie noticing that he's broken when she comes home.

The rest- Woody, Buzz, Forky, Knifey, Slinky, Hamm, Rex, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Heads, and the green aliens- with comfort, stitched Timothy's ripped shoulder, as if to fix it. Then, it worked out like a charm.

On the other hand, Jessie was sitting on Bonnie's bed, sniffling. The toys were looking at her full of concern as Bonnie's toys were busy aiding Bullseye in the closet. After that, they waited to see Bullseye regain his life back. Timothy whimpered sadly, as if he was very concerned about Jessie.

"Poor Jessie," Mrs. Potato Head says sadly.

"From all where we went through last night," Mr. Potato Head says in agreement, holding his wife's hand.

"I'm not gonna cry. Not me!" Rex sniffled, but he ended up crying.

"Oh, Rex, pull it together!" Hamm said, but did his best not to tear up.

"I don't get it," Slinky says sadly,

"Kathleen tried to hurt all of us for knowing what's useless about her owner after we saved Knifey to go back home, but worst of all, she tried to kill Woody in the first place, but instead, Bullseye got in the way for sacrifice."

Slinky wiped his tears away, and comforted Woody, whom Bo did so.

"This isn't your fault, Woody. We defeated Kathleen on the bright side," Bo says to Woody.

"Yeah, but Bullseye doesn't need to get such a fate. I can tell how Jessie's been close with her horse is that she takes good care of him," Woody agrees.

Buzz comforted Woody, so did Bo and Slinky until they all went up to comfort Jessie. As Timothy nuzzled Jessie without hesitation, Jessie turned and saw Timothy with Woody, Buzz, and Bo.

"Hey, Jess," Woody says.

"Hey, guys," Jessie says sadly.

"We know how much you're close with your horse," Bo says to her.

Jessie sniffles and chokes up in tears,

"I can't take it anymore... it's Emily all over again!"

Buzz laid a hand on his crush and said,

"Listen, Woody told me everything and I felt very upset. It's really hard to go through all of this, you know?"

"If anything happens to my dearest Bullseye, I don't know what I'm gonna do! First Emily abandoned me, and now... Bullseye- he saved Woody's life and..." Jessie tried to finish her sentence, but she broke down again, sobbing her heart out and even slamming her fist on the blanket of Bonnie's bed.

"I'm sorry, Bullseye," Jessie choked up quietly as she kept hitting her fist each time one by one,

"I'm so sorry! I tried my hardest to take care of you, but now I failed you."

Woody sadly sighed, and gave Jessie a hug, so did Bo and Buzz. On the other hand, Slinky climbed up the bed and nuzzled Jessie with comfort as he said,

"We're really sorry, Jessie."

Hamm, Rex, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Heads, and the green aliens hugged Jessie as well.

As Bonnie's toys called Jessie, she and the toys hopped out of Bonnie's bed.

Bonnie's toys smiled at Jessie, telling her that Bullseye will be okay. Then, they led her and the other toys to the closet.

On a rug in the closet, Bullseye stirred and blinked. The toy horse rubbed his eyes and looked at chest; it was woven and closed due to recovery. He purrs with a smile to his friends, as if to tell them he was fixed by stitches.

Jessie smiled tearfully and yelled happily,

"YEE-HAW!"

Then, she hugged her horse tightly, making him lick her back.

"Oh, Bullseye!" Jessie weeps excitedly, but then broke the hug,

"Aw, I thought you were dead! Don't ever do this again, okay?"

Bullseye purred, and nuzzled his owner with a natural kiss.

I missed you, my best friend, Bullseye spoke in this thoughts to Jessie.

Timothy purred with a smile in reaction.

It's good to have you back, the toy dragon said in his thoughts to the toy horse.

Woody, Bo, and Buzz smiled, and hugged Bullseye, too, so did their friends. Bullseye licked them one by one friendly, and purred happily. As Bullseye saw Timothy, he purred. Timothy smiled and purred back. The toy dragon then have the toy horse come for a hug.

Then, as the toys had Woody, Bo, and Timothy leave, since they are lost toys but will never be anymore.

"So, are you guys leaving?" Rex asks shyly.

Woody nodded, and sadly says,

"Timothy is saying that he'll stay with me and Bo."

Bo smiles and chimes in,

"No matter what adventures to take, we'll come along as always."

Timothy purrs cutely. Dolly says with a smile,

"It's such a pleasure to see you again, when when you're far."

"We all know that you and your dragon buddy will be fine," Buttercup agrees.

Trixie chuckled and chimed in,

"We'll think a lot about you when going on adventures with Bonnie."

"She's right. We'll all know where you were, and so will you," Mr. Pricklepants agreed with a smile.

"Sure thing," Woody replies.

Bo chuckled as Timothy smiled gruffly.

"That's sweet of you," Slinky says in awe,

"Have fun with your friendly dragon."

"Yeah, but not too much," Hamm agreed.

Rex smiles and says,

"Woody and Bo, take care of Timothy."

"Yeah," Mrs. Potato Head agrees with a kind smile,

"A toy dragon won't be lost like you two."

"He's charming," Mr. Potato Head chimed in.

Woody and Bo chuckled as Timothy purred happily.

"You two have fun with Timothy. Besides, we'd love to have you with him every visit," Jessie tells Woody and Bo happily.

Bullseye purred in agreement with a smile.

We still think about you, no matter what, he speaks in his thoughts to Woody and Bo.

"You know where we'll find each other, cowboy," Buzz says to Woody with a smile.

"Beyond infinity, space ranger," Woody replies back with a smile and hugs Buzz who returned it.

Jessie and Bullseye smile, and hug them. Forky, Knifey, Slinky, Hamm, Rex, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Heads, the green aliens, Dolly, Trixie, Buttercup, and Mr. Pricklepants felt awed at the same time. Then, as Woody moved onto Bullseye, he smoothed his cheeks.

"It's so great to have you back, boy," Woody says to Bullseye,

"We know that you'll be okay."

Bullseye smiles, purrs, and nuzzles Woody with a lick. Bo came for a hug, too. Bullseye nuzzled Bo as well, making the toys feel touched at this moment.

"Woody! Bo!" A voice says.

The toys turned, and they saw Giggle, Duke, Ducky, and Bunny. As they sought Timothy who purred kindly, they began to fear, but Woody and Bo explained everything that happened and also reassured them that Timothy is perfectly a safe toy dragon and a best friend to them. Giggle, Duke, Ducky, and Bunny sighed in relief, and began making friends with Timothy. But a voice says,

"Hi, toys!"

Woody, Bo, Giggle, Duke, Ducky, Bunny, and Timothy ran out to hide, and Bonnie's toys froze in position. Bonnie came and began to play with them. Outside on a tree branch, as Woody and Bo looked at each other, they smiled, and hugged each other. Timothy purrs, and has them ride on him. As the toy dragon flapped his wings, he took off.

From inside the house, Bonnie saw Knifey with her toys, and she excitedly cried out,

"Knifey!"

She hugged Knifey and told her,

"I thought I would never find you again!"

Her parents saw that Bonnie finally had Knifey, and they smile, and hug her with comfort.

"Come on sweetie, let's get lunch," Bonnie's mother says with a smile.

"And let's go out to eat at a restaurant!" Bonnie's father agreed.

Then, they and Bonnie laughed happily as they walked out of her room, closing the door. Then, coming alive and looking out the window, Buzz, Jessie, Bullseye, Forky, Knifey, Slinky, Hamm, Rex, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Heads, the green aliens, Dolly, Trixie, Buttercup, and Mr. Pricklepants spotted Timothy flying off back to the carnival with Woody, Bo Giggle, Duke, Ducky, and Bunny with smiles on their faces.

Jessie stood beside Buzz and kissed him. Buzz blushed, and returned it with Jessie in his arms. After that, they watched their friends leave with Timothy flying them high, letting out a roar. Bullseye purred kindly, and the toys were all smiling tearfully.

"So long, guys," Jessie says with a smile to Woody and Bo.

"To infinity," Buzz says to Woody.

"And beyond," Woody says to Buzz as Bo smiled.

Then, Woody and Bo looked and kissed each other as they, Giggle, Duke, Ducky, and Bunny remain riding on Timothy high in the sky and back onto the roof of the carousel at the carnival where the two had been ever since leaving the gang.

At long last, their lives had made their story like a dream come true once again.
