Well let's go get ready for our adventure to go around New York in our Eleventh part of our story.

So the plan was perfect after all. At Rosemary's place she would tell her friend Libby to say she's playing over at her house. And Libby has a grandmother who took care of her and she was literally deaf and she would never hear the phone if it rang and so her story was solid. As for Gabe he would tell his friend Max Kavinsky to cover for him. But the only possible flaw in his plan was that Gabe didn't actually have the guts to tell Max he was hanging out with a girl. So he never had the conversation. But lucky for Gabe he knew Max was going to Six Flags for the entire day. and so Gabe knew he was not going to accidentally call and be looking for him. The next day Sherman was getting ready for Penny Gabe and Rosemary to take him to the subway.

Mr. Peabody: Now Sherman I want you to behave yourself when you and your friends are at the park and please be home by 6:30 pm for dinner. And don't go to far.

Sherman: Okay Mr. Peabody.

Mr. Peabody: And do you have that dog whistle to call me when it's an emergency?

Sherman: Yes Mr. Peabody. Bye.

Soon Sherman joined Penny Gabe and Rosemary and the four of them went to the subway. Then they but Rosemary got their passes out and used them to open the gate. Luckily Gabe let Rosemary go in by using his pass.

Gabe: I got this.

Then the four kids rode on the subway train. Now Sherman and Penny were both getting very scared that they lied to Penny's parents and Mr. Peabody that they were going to the park with Gabe and Rosemary because they were really going to look for a new apartment for Gabe's dad. They both hold each others hands and quickly looked at each other before they blushed. As for Gabe and Rosemary they quickly stared at each other and then Gabe asked Rosemary a question.

Gabe: You um... Ride the subway a lot without any grown-ups?

Rosemary: Actually no. I...

Gabe: I do it all the time you know. It's much more fun this way.

Now Gabe was lying to Rosemary again because he didn't have the heart to tell her he never rode of the subway by himself without grown-ups and not been south of West 72nd. He felt Rosemary needed his leadership. Soon after that they made it to the stop but they couldn't find the place.

Gabe: I think we might have gotten off a stop or two early. Do you um... Do you want a ride?

Rosemary: You think we can both fit?

Gabe: We can try.

So Rosemary got on Gabe's scooter and she put her arms around Gabe's waist. And with her arms around Gabe there was nothing he couldn't do.

Gabe: I think it's this way.

Now Sherman and Penny did not have scooters to ride on. But they had Healy's shoes which are shoes that have little wheels on so they can catch up to Gabe and Rosemary. But the four kids actually found themselves back to where they started.

Sherman: Oh no! This place looks exactly the same way as when we first got here!

Penny: Oh dear me.

Gabe: Deja Vu.

Rosemary: Uh maybe we should ask for directions.

Gabe: No. I think it's just right up this alley right here.

Rosemary: You are so like all the guys in my family.

So Rosemary went into a mini market to ask for directions.

Penny: Hey Sherman do you want a snack?

Sherman: Sure how about we each get a chocolate bar without the almonds.

Penny: Okay. I'll be right back.

As Sherman and Gabe stared at the girls with lovestruck smiles, a weird looking old man spoke to them.

Old Man: That your girlfriends?

Gabe: Excuse Me?

Sherman: What?

Old man: They your girls?

Gabe: Yeah. My girlfriend . She's the one with the pink shirt and strawberry scented hair. And the one with the yellow blondie hair is his.

Sherman: Yep she's my girlfriend.

Old man: Huh. I had a girlfriend once upon a time too. She trampled my heart. Left me bleeding on the floor. Run.

Gabe: What?

Sherman: Excuse me?

Old man: Run while you still can brothers. Take my advice. Make like the Wind.

Sherman: Oh fiddle faddle! I will not take your advice. And that girl with the blonde hair is just my friend. And Gabe will never take your advice as well.

Rosemary: We were close One block a left and then another left.

Gabe: Let's go.

Penny: Here you go Sherman one chocolate bar for you and one chocolate bar for me.

Sherman: Thanks let's get going. That old man wanted Gabe and I to run from you and Rosemary and make like the wind.

Penny: Oh of all the tomfoolery! You old sir are crazy in the head!

Then Sherman and Penny left the old man with their chins up and humphed as they went to catch up with Gabe and Rosemary. As they left the old man watched them go.

Old man: Doggone little whippersnappers.

After a couple blocks the kids made it to the apartment.

Rosemary: Are you Isaac? I'm Rosemary. We're here to see the apartment.

Isaac: Am I getting Punk'd?

Gabe: No it's for my dad.

Isaac: And will Daddy be meeting us here?

Gabe: Well he will if i give him the high sign.

Rosemary: Are you trying to make a commission or not?

Later Isaac showed the kids the whole place.

Isaac: We do a nice business in two bedrooms with divorced fathers. This place will be gone in a New York minute. I promise you. Wood-burning Fireplace.

Gabe: Oh yeah. I noticed.

Isaac: Hey are you the young boy who...

Sherman: Yes I'm the boy who got adopted by Mr. Peabody a dog.

Isaac: How do you know what I was going to say?

Penny: It's because he's always heard that. And I've heard it as well. Oh Sherman look at the treetop view.

Sherman: Wow! Looks pretty cool.

When they looked at the view they realized this would be wonderful for Gabe's dad. It was the most romantic treetop view they ever saw. Later as they left they went to the path along the Hudson in over 67 blocks. And it was the most physically grueling experience of Gabe's short life on the planet. And they enjoyed the whole part of New York. They knew it was the city of dreams. Soon they stopped at a small park.

Rosemary: What's this?

Gabe: Oh this? You don't know about this? It's the smallest park in New York City. Some commissioner died and left his whole townhouse to be knocked down for a park.

Rosemary: How come I didn't know about this?

Gabe: Nobody on your side of Broadway ever comes over this way. That's what's so cool about West End.

Rosemary: Do you come here a lot?

Gabe: Actually I um I haven't been here in quite a while.

Sherman: Penny I'm getting scared. I have a strange feeling something bad is going to happen.

Penny: You're right Sherman. I'm worried something will happen.

Soon Gabe and Rosemary stared at each other eye to eye face to face. Sherman and Penny did the same thing as well but they were still scared. Suddenly a mean angry voice rang out. It was Darryl Kitzens the bully who got held back. And he was not alone he was with his friend Blanie.

Darryl: Hey Mini Me! What are you doing in our park?!

Gabe (thinking): Oh no way! Not Darryl Kitzens. Not now!

Rosemary: It's a public park.

Gabe (thinking) What's she doing inciting him? Doesn't she know that wild animals need to be placated?

Gabe then stepped in and talked to Darryl.

Gabe: I guess this park's big enough for all of us right?

Gabe knew that he a white belt and Rosemary a yellow belt were both facing off the big black belt of PS 87. They were all gonna get creamed.

Darryl: You picked the wrong park little man. Now get the hell out of my park.

Blanie: Well well well. It's the lovely Penny Peterson. I'm so glad you're at our park. I think I should take you for a little tour around town.

He then grabbed Penny by the arm.

Penny screamed in fear.

Penny: Sherman!

Sherman: Penny! Hey you leave her alone! She's my girl!

Blanie: Beat it shrimp! I will not leave her alone! She and I are going for a little ride.

Penny: Let me go you big bully!

Sherman was getting worried as his heart was beating faster for his deep love for Penny. He then ran up to Blanie and his bit him on his arm and Penny was free from Blanie's grasp. Then Gabe Rosemary Penny and Darryl stared in shock.

Blanie: Ow! He just bit me on the arm!

Then Rosemary gave Darryl a good swift kick in his crotch.

Rosemary: Ki-yah!

Darryl: Ow! You're dead!

Then Gabe punched Darryl with a Karate chop.

Gabe: Ki-yah!

Soon the fight was on. Penny and Sherman punched Blanie left and right in the jaw the gut and gave him a black eye. Then they gave him a good hard kick in his crotch.

Blanie: Ow my kidneys!

Soon the four kids got our of the park and ran and rode away from the bullies. But Penny and Sherman tripped.

Penny: Sherman help me!

Sherman: Penny! I'm coming!

Soon Sherman blew his dog whistle and over miles away Mr. Peabody heard it.

Mr. Peabody: Oh my stars! Sherman's In trouble!

Mr. Peabody ran as fast as he could and soon he saw Sherman and Penny who were about to get beaten up by Blanie and Darryl And now Gabe and Rosemary had to go back and help Mr. Peabody and save Sherman and Penny. But just then Penny's parents arrived and they stared in shock at what was going on. Soon Sherman and Penny stood next to Gabe and Rosemary and they watched as Mr. Peabody just finished beating the bullies up. Then Paul Peterson came up and he and Mr. Peabody glared at the two bullies in anger.

Darryl: Okay Mr. Dog we didn't really mean it. It was really a big mistake.

Blanie: We didn't mean to do this. We're so very sorry.

Mr. Peabody: If You two ever and I do mean so much as ever come near our kids again!

Darryl: Oh they're your kids. Oh i didn't know that.

Blanie: I didn't know that as well. Did you know that?

Darryl: No of course not.

Blaine: Uh... Toodles.

Then the bullies ran away in fear. Gabe and Rosemary smiled at Mr. Peabody and Paul with proud expressions on their faces. But they both frowned at them both in deep disappointment in anger because they themselves were not very happy with them and that made Gabe and Rosemary very sad. Sherman walked up to Mr. Peabody.

Sherman: Mr. Peabody. We uh..

Mr. Peabody: Sherman you and Penny have both deliberately disobeyed us.

Sherman knew Mr. Peabody was very angry at him for what he and Penny had done

Sherman: But it wasn't our fault. Gabe and Rosemary started it.

Paul: How dare you two drag my young daughter into this horrible mess?!

Mr. Peabody: My dear boy would've gotten hurt because of you two! Do your parents even know that you're both here?

Rosemary: Um no. We actually didn't tell them where we were.

Paul: Well I guess we should make a couple of phone calls.

Soon Paul and Mr. Peabody got their phones and they called Rosemary and Gabe's parents.

Gabe: Oh dear. I guess we should head for home. Sherman Penny we're so very sorry.

Rosemary: Come on Gabe let's go home. Sherman Penny... Good luck.

So Gabe and Rosemary headed for home. Then Mr. Peabody and Paul called their kids over.

Mr. Peabody: Sherman!

Paul: Penny!

Sherman and Penny both looked at each other with disappointed faces and then they both walked over to their dads.

Mr. Peabody: Sherman I'm so very angry and very disappointed in you.

Sherman: I know. But...

Mr. Peabody: I thought you Penny and Gabe and Rosemary were going to the park but you didn't because lied to me. You deliberately disobeyed me and what's even worse then that? Both Gabe and Rosemary put you two in danger. So Sherman you're grounded for two months with no video games no tv and no dessert.

Paul: You ought to be ashamed of yourself young lady! Just think of what could've happened to you.

Penny: But Dad... I...

Paul: No buts! You're grounded and you get no dessert no phone and no TV for two months.

Well now Sherman and Penny were very sad. But they were also very mad at Gabe and Rosemary for getting them into this mess.

Penny: Wait! Please just cut Sherman and me some slack! It really was not our fault!

Sherman: Yes! Just let us be ungrounded for Pete's sake please!

Mr. Peabody: Wha?

Sherman: Yeah Gabe and Rosemary did it! It's all their fault for taking us there!

Penny: Those two took us to find a new apartment for Gabe's dad because he and his mom will break up because she has a new date. So they're the troublemakers not us!

Sherman: They both need to be the ones to be punished not Penny and me! We tried to tell you but all of you just wouldn't even listen to us. Can you Please give Penny and me another chance please please please?!

Penny: Yeah please can we have another chance?! We promise we won't go with Gabe and Rosemary ever again.

Sherman: Yes Never again. Never ever again.

Soon Mr. Peabody Paul and Patty got together and whispered silently to each other while Sherman and Penny stood silently

Mr. Peabody: Okay. Sherman Penny we talked it all over and we all decided to give you two another chance. And you're both ungrounded by the way.

Sherman: Thanks Mr. Peabody.

Penny: Yeah thank you. Also Sherman and I are never ever talking to Gabe and Rosemary ever again.

Mr. Peabody: Well suit yourselves. But they might apologize to you two sometime. Now let's all go get some dinner at City Diner.

Paul: Now that's a wonderful idea.

Patty: Perfect.

Sherman: Yeah!

Penny: Oh boy!

So they all went out for dinner. Meanwhile Gabe and Rosemary made it to Rosemary's apartment.

Rosemary: Well that was fun.

Gabe: Yeah It was.

Rosemary: Scared he's gonna hunt us down?

Gabe: I just have to keep a low profile for the rest of the summer. And of course transfer to a military school in the fall.

Rosemary: I just have to keep a low profile for one more week.

Gabe: A week?

Rosemary: Well next Sunday after the wedding i'm going to camp.

Gabe: Camp? For how long?

Rosemary: For six weeks.

Gabe: Six weeks?

Gabe couldn't believe what he heard. He thought she might as well said she was dying.

Gabe: That's fantastic.

Rosemary: Yeah. Well I better get inside.

Gabe: Yeah. Good night.

Rosemary: Good night.

Soon Gabe rode away on his scooter and talked in his thoughts.

Gabe (thinking): What if she goes to camp and I never get to kiss her? That's the way it's going to be. It's so obvious. Every opportunity I have will go the same way. Good night. Good night. No. I will not let that happen. I will kiss her before she gets on that bus to Maine. I will I will I will!

Soon as Gabe made it home he saw some police cars and then he headed inside and Ralph was surprised to see him.

Ralph: Gabe? Gabe! That's him! There he is! Oh thank goodness if they don't kill you I'm going to.

And it turned out Max Kavinsky didn't go to Six Flags after all. Because he got sick his mom ran up to Gabe's mom and they got to talking and the cover was blown. Gabe ran to hug his mom.

Leslie: Gabe come here! Come here! Don't you ever go anywhere again without us knowing where you are do you hear me? You had us scared half to death!

Gabe's punishment was no phone no TV and no leaving the apartment for two days. It was the first thing his parents agreed on in a very long time.

Leslie: Do i have to call Rosemary's mother? Is that what I have to do?

Gabe: No! No! Don't call anyone!

Leslie: I thought I thought we had an understanding on the nine square blocks.

Gabe: We do!

Soon Gabe had to beg his mom for letting him go to karate class.

Gabe: I'll do anything! I'll wash dishes for the rest of the summer! I promise I will!

Soon the next two days he washed all the dishes by hand. Later at night his dad was ready to tuck him in bed.

Adam: You scared the hell out of us today.

Gabe: I know i'm sorry.

Adam: Yeah what does sorry mean?

Gabe: Sorry means I'm not gonna do it again.

Adam: That's right never again.

Gabe: Right. Hey Dad?

Adam: Yeah?

Gabe: Are you gonna move out?

Adam: Eventually yeah I am Gabe.

Gabe: Well I um I found an apartment for you.

Adam: You what?

Gabe: That's where I went today. To look for an apartment for you.

Adam: Do you want me to move out?

Gabe: No no of course not. But you know maybe we can't get our lives started again until you do.

Adam: Where do you get such big ideas?

Gabe: i don't know. I just get them.

Adam: So where is this apartment?

Gabe: It's a two bedroom on Grove Street.

Adam: In the Village?

Gabe: Yeah, Wood-burning fireplace.

Adam: No way.

Gabe: Why not?

Adam: It's too far from you champ. I wouldn't move more than a three or four block radius from you. You'd have to go to college to get farther away from me.

Gabe: Okay?

Adam: Okay. Go to sleep.

Gabe: All right.

Adam: So un what's the deal with this Rosemary?

Gabe: Rosemary? How do you mean?

Adam: Nothing I'm just not used to..

Gabe: We do karate together Dad. She's my sparring partner.

Adam: Oh. Okay great.

Gabe: I didn't even pick her.

Adam: Whatever you say king.

Soon Gabe went to sleep and he had this dream where he was on the basketball court with his friends until he saw Rosemary sitting on the grass wearing her pink dress.

Rosemary: Gabe. Over here.

Soon Gabe had to pick where to go. Either the court or Rosemary. Suddenly he split into two halves. His first half stayed on the court and his second half ran after Rosemary. Soon the first Gabe and his friends got upset the second Gabe ran off as he and Rosemary hugged and the first Gabe and the boys were grossed out and kept on playing as Gabe and Rosemary continued hugging as they both floated up into the air.

To be continued...
