Imagine This by Lucas Turnbloom for April 14, 2014

Jus imagine.A planet full of Dorkx…

Clovis, what you don’t realize is that he is from that alien planet that eats zombies, especially Clovis-Rex zombies. Calvin and Susie will be back shortly. So will Roberta the Plant and her children.

Yeah!

Missed you Turnbloom!

Cosmos Dorx is eyeing Clovis. He’s waiting for Clovis to turn into Clovis-Rex again. He has to keep Clovis in view so that the other aliens can get there for lunch. He also has to prevent Roberta the Plant and her children from wrapping their vines around Clovis-Rex. Roberta has altered her husband’s DNA. He now loves zombies.

Clovis suspects something, but he doesn’t realize that he is about to become lunch for Cosmos Dorx and Robert the Plant. Spaceman Spiff and Susie have landed. The rest of the space aliens are set to arrive tomorrow.

The space aliens have landed. They’re hungry. They haven’t eaten for a couple of weeks. Spaceman Spiff talks to them. It seems that Clovis has morphed back into Clovis-Rex and he has help. A woman named Howzi. She has finally gotten a life. She wants some alien brains to eat.

The space aliens have spotted the Space Aliens Bar and Grill. They have all entered to get a few drinks before going after the main meal, Clovis-Rex. They don’t know about Howzi. She is going to be a problem. She is much smarter than Clovis-Rex. Susie will also have to watch out. She is a lot smarter than Spaceman Spiff.

Spaceman Spiff was just about to let loose on Clovis-Rex. Too late. Clovis-Rex has attacked the space aliens and has eaten some of their brains. They didn’t expect it. Clovis-Rex put a gun next to them. Susie will get her revenge.

Susie has found some Brussels sprouts. She hurls them at Clovis-Rex. It is the one food he can’t stand. He makes his retreat. Susie, Spaceman Spiff and the other space aliens pick up the fallen ones for a return trip to their home planet. They have plan an attack on Clovis-Rex. Maybe they can use Howzi.

Cosmos Dorx is looking at the carnage. Off to his right, he sees Roberta the Plant and her children. They are advancing on Clovis-Rex and Howzi. Susie and Spaceman Spiff are getting their ray guns ready. Under the soil, Robert the Plant is growing. Clovis-Rex is about to meet his doom.

Howzi is behind Clovis-Rex. She sees Robert the Plant growing out of the ground under Clovis-Rex and the space aliens advancing with Susie and Spaceman Spiff.Just a few more minutes and then the action starts.

Robert the Plant has reached out his new tentacles and wrapped them around Clovis-Rex’s legs. Clovis-Rex falls to the ground. Robert the Plant then wraps more tentacles around his arms. Clovis-Rex can not move. The space aliens pounce.

POUNCE

The space aliens are all over Clovis-Rex. The ear piercing screams can be heard for miles. Suddenly, it’s over. Clovis-Rex is gone. Oh no. Robert the Plant is also gone. the space aliens have also eaten him in their haste. Poor Robert the Plant. Rest in peace.

The space aliens are no full. So full in fact, that they don’t want to eat Howzi. To thank her for making sure that the space aliens could eat Clovis-Rex, they have an anti-zombie cure. She is no back to being human and will now resume normal human behavior. She will now Get a Life. Spaceman Spiff looks a Susie. She has this strange smile on her face.

Susie turns to Spaceman Spiff. She tells him that she knows that is is actually Calvin. She then says that she loves him and will be with him for the rest of her life. From somewhere, Hobbes appears beside her just as Calvin faints. Hobbes smiles as the space Aliens prepare to go home.

The space aliens have left the planet. Roberta the Plant has regrown Robert the Plant. Their children are now growing where Clovis-Rex once was. Susie takes Calvin’s hand. Calvin feels a warmth that he has never felt before. He looks down to see if he is walking on lava. Susie giggles and Calvin looks up. Hobbes is there beside Susie. Susie sees him as Calvin sees him. Their job finished, they head home. Both now falling in love. Both will now have a new beginning and a new life with each other..The end.

I thought if I ended it, then a new strip would be put on. I guess I was mistaken. We’ll go on..Roberta the Plant is looking around and spies Dewey. He seems lost. She calls him over and introduces him to her children. They gather around him and start jumping up and down. This makes Dewey happy and he does the same thing.

I LOVE BRUSSEL SPROUTS! ESPECIALLY PICKLED IN DILL VINEGAR OR WITH A SWEET VINEGAR MIX!

THANKS katina! I have none in the house at the moment! LOL!

I look forward to your tales! Good job, Girl! Thumbs up!

Dewey is jumping up and down, enjoying the company of the children of Roberta and Robert the Plant. He has just stepped in something. It’s all gooey. Odd, it’s moving. Dewey has just felt something pierce his foot. He wonders if he should tell Roberta after playing with her children.

My little brother used to call bruselsprouts, “pods”.: )He still does…

Dewey is starting to feel a growth spurt for some reason. He smells his foot. It has a familiar smell. OH NO !!!! Part of Clovis-Rex was not eaten by the space aliens. Now, Dewey is in trouble. He doesn’t want the space aliens to eat him. Oh, what to do?

Grow teeth?

Dewey is confused. Why are his teeth growing longer? He can’t understand why the ground keeps getting farther away. He has this strange hunger. He looks around and sees two people and wonders why he’s attracted to them, especially their heads.

Dewey is feeling strange. His hunger for brains has turned him into Dewey-Sauras. Calvin and Susie are slowly walking away, holding hands. They don’t see him. Hobbes feels the vibrations from the ground. He turns and fear shows in his eyes.

Dewey-Sauras has pounced. He takes Calvin and Susie in his mouth and swallows them whole. They didn’t even get a chance to scream.

Hobbes knows he must take a chance to save Calvin and Susie. He jumps at Dewey-Sauras. He goes straight down his throat. Dewey-Sauras starts to gag. Then, suddenly, he throws up a hairball that looks strangely like Hobbes. Calvin and Susie also come out, covered in slimy stomach juices. But at least they’re now out.

Even while running from Dewey-Sauras, Calvin is thinking. He has gathered up all the stomach slime. He’s going to use it on that bully at school. He can put a can of it on top of the door so that it falls on the bully when he walks in. He hopes that Mrs. Wormwood doesn’t walk in first.

Calvin has stored the slime on his spaceship. He has donned his spaceman Spiff spacesuit and has two ray guns. Susie says she won’t need it. She smiles again. Calvin is worried. Hobbes smiles at Susie.

Susie knows that the space aliens are coming back. She’ll have to talk to them about not eating Dewey-Sauras. He didn’t mean to step on the remains of Clovis-Rex. The space aliens can turn him back into just Dewey. If they can avoid his big clumsy feet.

Dewey-Sauras is getting hungry again. Roberta the Plant has a plan. It involves her husband. Spaceman Spiff is now in contact with the space aliens. They are almost to Earth.

Dewey-Sauras doesn’t know what to do. He has these strange cravings. He looks up and sees a space ship approaching. He doesn’t know that the space aliens are there to help him. He isn’t looking where he’s going and steps on Robert the Plant. Poor Robert the Plant. Rest in peace.

The space aliens have landed. They are hungry. Roberta the Plant has developed a DNA strand that will will grow more of the new species call Clovis-Rex. She has given it to the space aliens in return for them giving Dewey-Sauras a vaccine to return him to just regular Dewey.

The space aliens have received the Clovis-Rex strand and are very grateful. One of them has sneaked up behind Dewey-Sauras and injected him with the vaccine. He will return to normal in a short while. They have also given Roberta the Plant some vaccine for Covis-Rex, who is now growing under Roberta the Plant’s supervision.

Dewey is now back to normal. So is Clovis. Also back to his normal self, still with those same anger issues. Robert the Plant has grown back to his normal self. He, Roberta and their children are heading home along with Clovis and Dewey. The space aliens are also headed home with their new food source. Spaceman Spiff, AKA Calvin, and Susie watch them leave. Susie leans over and kisses Calvin on the cheek. Calvin’s eyes just about bulge out his head. Hobbes smiles.

We jump ahead 20 years. Calvin’s mom and dad are looking for the perfect gift for their new granddaughter. Nothing seems right. They are looking through the closet for things to pack for their trip. Suddenly, up in the corner of the closet, they spy an old stuffed tiger. It’s Hobbes.

Calvin’s mom and dad are on their way to Pleasantville. She’s holding Hobbes on her lap. She doesn’t see it, but Hobbes is smiling. As they enter the town, they pass by the children’s hospital. It’s Susie’s Children’s Intergalactic hospital. Outside, it says " Even if you can’t pay, your child is never turned away". Alien spacecraft are everywhere.

Calvin’s mom and dad continue driving towards Calvin and Susie’s house. They pass by Moe’s intergalactic and interdimensional security. Their slogan: "Nothing gets by us. NOTHING !!!! Aliens of every type are loading spacecraft with weapons and materials for the protection of all types of life. Moe’s is known in all universes and dimensions as the one to come to for security.

They travel down the road in Pleasantville. Off to the left is Calvin’s intergalactic and interdimensional spaceport. The place is packed with spacecraft from other universes and dimensions. Moe’s security keeps everyone safe.

Off to the right is Miss Wormwood’s elementary school. The school spacecraft from 3 galaxies away is arriving with students. Miss Wormwood will not put up with bullies. Every student knows it. They get a good education without any fears.

Calvin’s mom and dad have arrived at Calvin and Susie’s house. They look off to the side and see the ocean and the waterfall in the distance. The whales are blowing water out of their blowholes. The dolphins are jumping through the water, just because then can. Alien fluffy tigers are roaming the lawn, wanting to be petted. They’re all tame.

Calvin’s parents go into the house. Calvin sees Hobbes and chokes up. Susie smiles. They head up to their grand daughter’s room where she is asleep. On the crib is her nickname. Frannie, short for Francis Bacon. Calvin’s mom puts Hobbes in the crib with Frannie. They look at her for a few minutes and then quietly leave. In the crib, Frannie continues to sleep. Calvin’s mom looks back in the room. She catches her breath and smiles. In the crib with Frannie is Hobbes, sitting up and smiling at Calvin’s mom. He says just two words. “Thank you”. ..The end.

Rest in peace, Clovis, Dewey, Darin and especially you, Robert the Plant. You will be missed.

This is literally my only complaint about your comic, Lucas… it goes away for weeks/months on end and makes me sad to miss it. :-(

OH WELL, YET ANOTHER ONE BIT THE DUST! SIGH!

Cue the Muppet Show theme music and… “It’s the Katrina Show, YAYYYYYYY!!!”

May have to restart something else with Clovis. He won’t stay down for long.

Uh oh. There seems to be dirt moving where Clovis had been. Oh no, Clovis is back, and he is not happy about what Calvin and Susie did. He is going to pay them back for having him eaten by the aliens.

Clovis-Rex is hungry and he is very upset. He is going to make Calvin pay for what the aliens did to him. Clovis-Rex doesn’t know about Frannie. She is in danger.

Clovis-Rex has had a small meal. He spied Nancy coming out of her bedroom. Her scream was brief. She didn’t make Fritzi wake up. He needs more to eat if he is going to get to where Calvin and Susie live.

Clovis-Rex has made his way through the town where Bully the dog lives. The entire town is nothing but zombies. The citizens were very tasty when they were alive. They will now help Clovis-Rex in his battle with the space aliens and Calvin.

Susie has a weird feeling, but she doesn’t know what it is. She doesn’t want to tell Calvin. She doesn’t want to worry him. She also hears giggling coming from her daughter’s room, but it doesn’t sound like her.

Susie peeks in and almost screams. She Hobbes playing with Frannie. Then, she remembers,years ago, Hobbes helped them defeat Clovis-Rex. She phones Calvin and asks him if he also has a weird feeling that he can’t explain.

Calvin, still as naive as when he was young, doesn’t think a thing about it. He’s always known that Hobbes is real. He’ll get Moe’s security to look into anything that might be not just right.

Moe has sent out a team see if there are any abnormal problems. He just called them and there is no answer. Now, he’s worried. What Moe doesn’t know is that Clovis-Rex has had a snack and is growing larger. He will not fail this time.

Clovis-Rex is growing stronger and now knows where Calvin and Susie live. He is headed to Pleasantville. Calvin is going to regret the day that he tangled with Clovis-Rex. Suddenly, he sees a woman walking alone and not seeing him behind her.

It’s Teresa Burritt. She doesn’t see Clovis-Rex. She’s too busy wondering if she should start Frog Applause again. Now, it’s too late. One quick chomp and she’s gone. Clovis-Rex continues his journey to Pleasantville.

Moe has told Calvin that his team is missing. Calvin now knows that Clovis-Rex is back. Just a feeling, but it scares him. He’ll have to get hold of the zombie eating aliens again. Clovis -Rex may not be that easy to defeat this time. He also has to worry about his daughter.

Calvin has called the aliens to come back to Earth to do battle with Clovis-Rex. They are on the way. Calvin just hopes that they get here in time. Hobbes says he will take care of Frannie and make sure that Clovis-Rex doesn’t harm her.

Clovis-Rex has picked up the scent of Calvin. He smiles. He’ll be in Pleasantville in a few days. Nobody will be spared. He is going to eat Susie first. It will make Calvin suffer and be sorry for what he did.

Clovis-Rex has made it to Pleasantville. Looking up, he sees the space aliens coming down. Clovis-Rex knows how to deal with them. Reaching down, he grabs a huge boulder and heaves it at the space ship. The space ship is knocked into the lake. They start to scramble out as the space ship sinks.

The people at Moe’s security have gotten all the aliens out of the lake. Now, the aliens are mad. They have vowed not to let any part of Clovis-Rex to remain. Susie has called for extra security for the hospital. Some of their families have arrived to remove their children.

Clovis-Rex has arrived at the hospital. Moe and his team are using DX-5 ray guns on Clovis-Rex. They don’t have any effect. Clovis-Rex is now in the process of destroying the hospital. Luckily, all the patients have been removed.

The hospital is destroyed, but all the young ones are safe. Susie will rebuild it. Now, for Clovis-Rex. It’s all out war. Robert and Roberta the Plant have arrived with their children. They have all vowed that Clovis-Rex will never terrorize anybody ever again.

The aliens have attacked Clovis-Rex and are eating as fast as possible. Suddenly, they all fall asleep and fall to the ground. Clovis-Rex has changed. The aliens will no longer be a problem. Now, for Moe and his security team.

Moe and his team are firing the Z78 atomic weapons at Clovis-Rex. They have no effect. All to soon, the security team is defeated. Clovis-Rex smiles as the last one falls. Strangely, Calvin feels a certain relief and doesn’t know why.

Calvin has changed into Spaceman Spiff and has entered his spacecraft. It’s now Spaceman Spiff and Clovis-Rex. It will be an epic battle. Clovis-Rex takes a hit from the ZZ-150 laser blasters and then, knocks Spaceman Spiff’s spacecraft for a loop. He quickly regains control.

Spaceman Spiff fires the blasters. Clovis-Rex is blasted off his feet. Off to his side, he sees Robert and Roberta the Plant and their children. They quickly tie Clovis-Rex while the Space aliens start to eat. Clovis-Rex will not stand for it. He starts to struggle. the plants are having trouble keeping him down.

Clovis-Rex has almost broken free. Spaceman Spiff continues to blast him. Suddenly, Hobbes pounces and starts to rip pieces of Clovis-Rex. He hopes that the space aliens can find all the pieces.

Clovis-Rex has been defeated. The space aliens have eaten their fill. Roberta the Plant has rebuilt Clovis as he was before and sent him back to Darin. The hospital is being rebuilt and and the space children are returning. Frannie is now safe and everything is returning to normal. Even Moe has returned. Calvin and Susie look over Pleasantville. It will take a while to rebuild, but it will happen. Hobbes is once again with Frannie and smiling. Everything is now back to normal.The end.

There is a rumbling in the ground. Nobody is near and Alvin has gone back to Pleasantville to help rebuild after Clovis-Rex almost demolished the city. It’s just a few cells, but they are dividing quickly. The cells already know what they need to be indestructible. They need a young female.

Clovis-Rex is growing. All he has to eat for now are a few cockroaches that were feeding some garbage that Calvin left there. Clovis-Rex knows that the cockroaches will make him strong and fast. He will also be able to climb walls. He will need that ability to get to Frannie’s room. Calvin will pay for what he did to Clovis-Rex.

Clovis-Rex is eating everything his can get his hands on. Two young lovers are walking down the path, looking at each other. The last thing they heard was a few bushes moving. Clovis-Rex will not be stopped this time. He knows where Pleasantville is. He is now making his way there.

Clovis-Rex has come across a stage. It says “Sweet and Sour Pork, last panel”. He looks around, but doesn’t see anything. He moves on, now hungry. He sees a man walking alone. His wallet falls out of his pocket. He can’t make out the last name, but the first name is Phil. He has a picture of a woman. At the bottom of the picture, it says Fritzi. He never felt the teeth sinking into his head.

Up ahead, Clovis-Rex sees a woman who for some reason is constantly saying “ACCCCKKK”. When she turned and saw him, it changed to a piercing scream. One pounce and she was gone. Now, he’s full and once again, headed to Pleasantville to get his revenge.

Clovis-Rex is about twenty miles from Pleasantville. Calvin has space craft everywhere. He is not taking chances with his family or the city. It will be dark soon and he can get into town. Calvin’s daughter will be sweet revenge.

Pleasantville is just over the hill. Calvin has installed an early warning system. Clovis-Rex has seen it and deactivated it. Calvin won’t know until it’s too late. Clovis -Rex is hungry again. He sees a couple of people who were in Humble Stumble. He thinks they won’t be missed.

the people from Humble Stumble have taken their bows and walked off. They didn’t get far. There were a few short screams and then, silence. Clovis-Rex is now just a few miles from Pleasantville. Susie has a strange feeling and Frannie is crying.

Susie looks out the window in Frannie’s room and almost screams. Clovis-Rex is coming over the hill and he is huge. Almost 50 feet tall. She immediately calls Calvin and tells him to get his spaceship ready. She turns around and Clovis-Rex is almost to the house. She runs with Frannie to the cellar to hide.

Clovis-Rex has pounced on the house and has ripped it to shreds. He can’t find find Frannie. He looks up and sees Spaceman Spiff in his improved space craft. There is a blast from the mordificator ray gun. Clovis-Rex loses a finger. He picks up part of the house and throws it, hitting the space craft. Calvin spirals towards the ground.

Hey all – I’m bummed about no strips either, so I asked Google for help. I found this post on Lucas’ twitter from 8/6/14:

Lucas Turnbloom‏@LucasTurnbloomListening to Rust in Peace while working on “Imagine THIS” strips. Which returns next week, BTW. #ItIsBackUntilICollapse #GoComics

I’m crossing my fingers!!!!!!!

Spaceman Spiff has regained control and is now firing away at Clovis-Rex. Howzi has shown up with her electric car and has run into the back of Clovis-Rex’s legs. He has toppled over, giving Spaceman Spiff the opportunity to open fire. Off in the distance, he sees Hobbes advancing. Clovis-Rex doesn’t see him.

The space aliens are here from the planet Dorx. They are waiting for Clovis-Rex to be defeated. They are very hungry. Hobbes has lashed onto his neck and Howzi is using her electric car to keep Clovis-Rex from getting back on his feet. Right now, it’s evenly matched. Susie has brought Frannie up from the cellar and is taking her across the lake where it is much safer. Spaceman Spiff unleashes the ZZ-150 laser blasters, careful not to hit Hobbes. Clovis-Rex is starting to go down.

Clovis-Rex is on the ground. The space aliens are now eating him. Hobbes has taken a chunk of Clovis-Rex for Susie, who will rebuild him and send him back to Darin as just plain Clovis. Howzi has been asked to stay in Pleasantville to make her electric cars. They will be sold throughout the universe. Clovis-Rex is now gone and the aliens have left, too. Calvin and Hobbes have returned to get Susie and Frannie. Everyone is now safe. Calvin and Susie are now watching Frannie and Hobbes playing by the lake. They won’t have to worry about Clovis-Rex anymore..The end.

We thought it was the end, but something has happened. Clovis was playing possum with everybody. They thought he was just plain Clovis, but he was smart and waited until he got away from everybody. This time, the entire planet is in danger. Clovis-Rex is back and this time, he will save Frannie for last.

Calvin, Susie and all the others in Pleasantville are rebuilding the city. The hospital was very damaged. It will take a while to fix it. In the meantime, tents have been set up to care for the children from other dimensions. Moe is out of the hospital and back with the security company. They don’t yet know about Clovis-Rex. They will soon.

The hospital is going just fine. Susie calls Calvin. “Calvin, honey, Frannie is acting strange. Clovis-Rex isn’t coming back, is he”? Calvin doesn’t feel anything strange and tell Susie; “I don’t think so. We got everything and destroyed all the spare pieces”. Susie is still worried and calls Moe to alert him to the possibility of Clovis-Rex returning.

Clovis-Rex has spotted Robert the Plant who is sleeping. Clovis-Rex suddenly swoops in and with one chomp, Robert the plant is again gone. Poor Robert the Plant. Roberta is not going to be happy with Clovis-Rex and he knows it. He will have to leave for Pleasantville very soon.

Howzi has just called Susie. “Susie, I have this bad feeling”. Susie tells her; “Howzi, Frannie has a worried look about her. I’m afraid that Clovis-Rex is returning. But I don’t see how. He was just plain Clovis”. Howzi agrees for a moment and then says; “Maybe he had us fooled”.

Clovis-Rex is now closing in on the city of Pleasantville. He is not going to make the same mistake this time as he did the last time. Scanning the sky, he spots the aliens from the planet Dorx. They haven’t seen him. A few more days and he will strike. There will be carnage.

Alvin has called Moe and told him to get his team ready. Moe is short handed due to most of the team patrolling the area where Clovis-Rex destroyed the town. Moe wants his revenge on Clovis-Rex. Calvin tells him; “Moe, be careful. Susie tells me that she has a very bad feeling that Clovis-Rex will not be as easy to defeat this time”.

Calvin is on the phone again with Susie. “Susie, take Frannie to the safe room. Moe has seen Clovis-Rex. He’s a lot bigger than before. I don’t know why he wants Frannie, but we have to keep her safe”. Susie knows that Clovis-Rex is back. She takes Frannie to the safe room. What Clovis-Rex doesn’t know is that the safe room in in another dimension.

Clovis-Rex has entered Pleasantville. At 100 feet tall, he is an imposing sight. With one stomp, he has demolished the new hospital. The aliens from the planet Dorx have arrived and are shooting at Clovis-Rex. It has no effect. All of the citizens of Pleasantville now know that they are in trouble. Calvin is now firing from his spaceship. The rays simply bounce off Clovis-Rex. They must try something drastic.

The alien from the planet Dorx have a plan. They have released Darin in front of Clovis-Rex. His mouth waters at the thought of eating Darin. What he doesn’t see is Hobbes and Howzi coming in from the back. They both pounce on Clovis-Rex. The chewing of his neck has started. Moe and his crew are blasting his arms so he can’t reach up and grab Hobbes and Howzi.

Clovis-Rex makes a final move and breaks free. He turns and flings Hobbes into a tree. Hobbes is unconscious. A quick bite and Hobbes is now in the stomach of Clovis-Rex. Calvin can’t believe it. His tiger friend has just been eaten. What will he tell Frannie?

Roberta the Plant is waiting. She shoves the only thing that Clovis-Rex can’t stand into his mouth. Brussels sprouts. Clovis-Rex gags and up comes Hobbes. He is slimy and dazed, but alive. Calvin swoops down and picks him up. Hobbes will be alright.

Clovis-Rex is throwing up and the stink is starting to wither the trees. Roberta the Plant has brought her children to the fight. At her command; “sic em’”, her children are on Clovis-Rex, chewing everything in sight. Clovis-Rex didn’t count on this. He is getting weak and doesn’t want to return to just plain Clovis. He has an idea. It involves Robert the Plant who is still in his throat.

Roberta yells to Robert; " Robert, I want to have more children". Absolutely shocked by this statement, Robert the plant stiffens his petals in shock. This in turn closes the air way of Clovis-Rex. He gasps for breath as Calvin and the space aliens from the planet Dorx converge and start firing the disruptor lasers. Clovis-Rex starts to go down.

Clovis-Rex is on the ground, gasping for breath. Calvin continues to blast him with the disruptor laser.Finally, Clovis-Rex is still. Calvin lands and stands next to Clovis-Rex. He mutters “Finally, it’s over. Frannie is safe”. The next thing Calvin knows, he is thrown 50 feet. Clovis-Rex spits Robert the Plant out of his mouth. Howzi has shown up and is prepared to do battle.

Howzi is in her electric car and has refitted it as a weapon. She rams it into Clovis-Rex and a large jolt of electric rips through his body. He goes down and Moe slams his spaceship into him. Calvin starts to come to from where he was thrown and stumbles back to his spaceship. Off in the distance, the aliens have arrived with the injection that will turn Clovis-Rex back into just plain Clovis.

The aliens have inject Clovis-Rex with the drug that will turn him back into just plain Clovis. It is starting to work. Clovis-Rex is shrinking. He now is just plain Clovis. The aliens have taken him aboard their spacecraft and are taking him home. He will be no more trouble. Calvin is now headed home to Susie and Frannie. Hobbes is smiling, knowing that Frannie is safe. Pleasantville will now be rebuilt and the children’s hospital will be completed. Everything is now back to normal. Just then, Clovis wakes up. He looks around and finds out that it was all just a dream. He says to himself “That’s the last time I EVER drink cheap booze again”. .The end. And this time, it is finished.

Clovis is upset that he hasn’t been seen in a few days. He knows that no one will be expecting anything to happen. Calvin and Hobbes have settled in at their intergalactic repair shop. Susie, now head of the intergalactic children’s hospital has Bacon to help her. Celeste, on the other hand, senses something and it is not pleasant. Clovis-Rex is back. This time, he will not be defeated. He has given them 3 years of peace. It now ends.

Clovis-Rex rises from the peacefulness and lets out a roar that blows a hole in the side of the house. This awakens Dewey. He searches for his phone to call Calvin, but he can’t find it. It’s in his hand. Celeste knows something is wrong. She calls Calvin. “Calvin”, she says, “I think Clovis-Rex is coming back. You must do something to stop him again”. Calvin tells her, “I’ll get Hobbes”. He doesn’t know what to say to Susie. She and Celeste didn’t exactly get along the last time.

Calvin tells Hobbes, “Clovis-Rex has started his rampage again. We will have to stop him. Now, where is my spaceman Spiff outfit”? Hobbes is almost beside himself with excitement. Plus, he gets to meet Celeste again. Maybe he can keep Celeste busy so that Susie doesn’t get jealous. Plus, he gets to meet Dewey again. Hobbes misses him.

Spaceman Spiff is getting the spaceship ready. It’s rather dusty from not being used for three years. Hobbes is there and tells Calvin, “Susie is a little worried about Celeste going with us”. Calvin remembers her and tells Hobbes, “I’ve learned my lesson. There won’t be any trouble”. Up the road comes His daughter, Bacon, and someone he has never seen before. Bacon introduces her. “Daddy, this is Madelyn. She just moved here. I asked her to help us”. Madelyn looks a little scared while looking at the spaceship. Bacon tells her, “It’s safe. Oh, and as for my name, I know that Bacon sounds a little strange for a girl’s name, but everybody likes Bacon”. They both giggle. Hobbes just rolls his eyes.

Clovis-Rex has now grown to full height and seeks revenge on Calvin, Susie and Bacon. But first, he needs something to eat. He spots Robert the Plant. One chomp and Robert the Plant is gone. Rest in peace, Robert the Plant. Don’t worry, your wife, Roberta will regrow you after Clovis-Rex leaves. With a loud crash, Clovis-Rex bust out the wall and heads out to destroy everything. Dewey is on the phone calling Calvin. “Calvin”, he cries, “Clovis-Rex is coming after you”. Calvin tells him, “We’re on our way”.

Madelyn and Bacon are getting on board the spacecraft with Hobbes. “What does Clovis-Rex look like?” says Madelyn. Bacon says, “He is huge and ugly. He will eat you in one bite. We’ll have to be careful. But, I have a weapon that he can’t tolerate”. “What kind of weapon?”, asks Madelyn. Bacon tells her, “I sing Justine Bieber love songs to him”. Madelyn looks at her and says, “You do? Can I join you when you sing them? Maybe together, we can totally destroy him”. Bacon just smiles.

Celeste has just arrived. Calvin hasn’t seen her, yet. Susie and Hobbes have just come out of the spaceship. “Hi, Celeste”, says Susie, “I’m glad you could make it here to help fight Clovis-Rex. I’d like you to meet Madelyn. he’s going to help us. She’ll be helping Bacon singing those Justine Bieber love songs to scare Clovis-Rex”. Celeste isn’t saying a word. Just the thought of hearing those songs makes her want to run and hide. What none of them notice is that Calvin has seen Celeste. He tries not to stare.

“Celeste, you got here in time, says Susie. “Celeste, this is Madelyn. Her pets, Pal and Buddy, are home and are being taken care of. Madelyn is going to help us defeat Clovis-Rex again. She will be helping Bacon sign Justine Bieber love songs to him. He can’t stand hearing them”. Celeste whispers to Susie,“I can’t stand to hear them, either.” Just then, they see a spaceship starting to land. It’s the aliens from the planet Dorx. Now, to go after Clovis-Rex.

As the aliens get out of their spaceship, Bacon runs up to them and hugs Dorx. She hasn’t seen him in three years. “Dorx, this is Madelyn. She’s going to help us. Madelyn, if you think they could help, could you get Pal and Buddy to help us”? Madelyn says," I don’t see why not. Pal and Buddy would like to leave Sherpaville for a while". Calvin and Hobbes are just about ready to take off. Calvin is doing all he can to not look at Celeste. He is pretending that he is young again and that girls don’t matter. It’s hard for him to do that.

Everybody is aboard the spacecraft and they are headed to Sherpaville to pick up Pal and Buddy. Clovis-Rex is once again hungry. He spies some businessmen eating lunch. Four quick chomps later, Clovis-Rex is full. All four weighed over 200 pounds. Now, it was time to hunt Calvin and Hobbes. What he didn’t know is that Bacon will be having help. Clovis-Rex might be in a little trouble.

Hobbes is coming out of the spaceship and sees Pal and Buddy. Right away, he knows he will be friends with them. “Hi, I’m Hobbes. Who are you”? ""m Pal and this is Buddy. We’re with Madelyn. We’re here to help fight Clovis-Rex. Just how bad of a monster is he?", asks Buddy. Hobbes tells him that Clovis-Rex will eat anything and that he is very mean. Susie and Calvin then arrive and tell them that it’s time to go. Celeste says, “let’s go get him. I have the ear plugs for when the singing starts”.

Clovis-Rex is resting on a group sight-seers who were at a wedding reception. There will be a lot of empty cars when he leaves. The aliens from the Planet Dorx are now fly along side Spaceman Spiff. Celeste has entered the cockpit and is standing by Calvin. “How’s everything going”?, she asks. Calvin tries to not look at her, but Celeste knows what’s on his mind. “Oh, everything is just fine. Just don’t be afraid of Clovis-Rex. He knows when you are scared of him”, says Calvin. Celeste then says, “I won’t be scared. Hobbes is here”. She giggles just a little.

Hobbes rubs up against Celeste and she pats his head. Down the hall come Pal, Buddy and Madelyn. She has been practicing her songs. Pal and Buddy have their ear plugs in. Now, they can take them out. Madelyn looks out the window and sees the aliens from the planet Dorx. She now knows that aliens are real. Calvin tells everybody, “Take your seats. It’s time to stop Clovis-Rex”. Madelyn asks Bacon, “Just how big is Clovis-Rex”? Bacon looks at the huge alien space ship and says, “About the size of the alien space ship”. “Wow”, says Madelyn.

Off in the distance, they see Clovis-Rex. He has just finished an entire town. Calvin swoops in fires his ray gun. It has no effect on Clovis-Rex. It does distract him. Calvin lands behind him while Bacon and Madelyn jump out. Buddy and Pal are worried that Madelyn will be eaten. Hobbes tells them, " Don’t worry, when they start singing those Justin Bieber love songs, he won’t last long. Here’s some ear plugs. You’ll need them".

Clovis-Rex has become stronger since he was last here. In fact, none of the blasts from the ray gun will harm him. Just then, Hobbes jumps from the spacecraft and lands on the back of the neck of Clovis-Rex. He bites and Clovis-Rex screams in pain. He falls to the ground. Calvin lands the spaceship. Bacon and Madelyn hop out and start singing Justin Bieber love songs. Hobbes has forgotten to put his ear plugs in and lets loose of Clovis-Rex. The love songs are keeping him down, but they need something else to finish him off. Pal and Buddy think they have solution.

This is my last comment. It’s time to move on. Clovis, take care of Darin. He’ll need it. Good bye. Katina.

There is a problem in Pleasantville. Susie senses it. She will have to contact Celeste to confirm it. She hopes that she is wrong, but she now worries that Clovis-Rex is coming back to destroy Pleasantville.

Susie has called Calvin at the alien spacecraft repair center. “Calvin, I sense that Clovis-Rex is coming back”. Calvin tells her, " If he is, we are in trouble. It’s been years since he turned into Clovis-Rex. He will be a lot more trouble to stop. I’ll call the aliens from Dorx and have them come here. get hold of Celeste".

Clovis-Rex is now stronger and nastier than before. He will now destroy Calvin, Hobbes and Susie and the entire town of Pleasantville. Dewey is hiding and trying to contact Calvin. All he gets is a busy signal because Calvin is talking to Susie. Calvin sees Celeste coming in the door and nearly drools on the phone. He doesn’t dare tell Susie about it.

Celeste hears her cell phone ringing and answers it. “Susie, I was wondering if you felt something weird”, she said. Susie also was a little curious as to where she was. She said, “Celeste, I think Clovis-Rex is coming back. Where are you”? Celeste looks around and says, “I’m here at Calvin’s repair shop. I don’t know how I got here. Should I tell Calvin that Clovis-Rex is coming back? Oh, never mind, he’s right behind me. Should we come and get you”? “Yes, that would be a good idea”, said Susie.

Susie gets everything ready to go and fight Clovis-Rex and to get to Calvin’s shop before he forgets that he’s married. As she gets in her car, she sees the Aliens from the planet Dorx arriving. Susie’s daughter will definitely want to go with them. It’s a good thing, too. She will be a big help.

Celeste has called Bacon. Bacon already is on her way. “Celeste, we have a problem. I sense that Clovis-Rex is going to destroy the entire town and the hospital. We have to contact all the aliens to come and get their children”. Celeste tells her,“I’ll start calling them. Maybe one of them has developed something to help us fight Clovis-Rex”.

Bacon also has some other terrible news. She suspects that another evil set of demons may be getting ready to get rid of everybody. If so, she will tell her story on another place.

Clovis-Rex is bigger and meaner than he was before. He is also hungry. He sees an old folks home in the distance. In one minute, he is there. In two minutes, everyone in the old folks home is in his belly. Time to head to Pleasantville to get revenge. Calvin and Susie and Bacon and Celeste will be the last ones he eats.

Bacon has now arrived at her dad’s repair shop and sees Celeste. “Celeste, it great to see you again. You haven’t aged a bit. Clovis-Rex is bigger than he was before. Are you ready to fight him again”? Celeste says, “let’s get him. It’s been a long time but we will destroy him this time”. “Dad”, says Bacon, “When will everything be ready”? Calvin says,“Just a few hours. It has to be cleaned out and we’ll get Clovis-Rex. You mom is headed here. Then we can leave”.

Susie has just now arrived. “Celeste, it’s so good to see you again. Clovis-Rex is headed this way. You and Bacon and the Aliens from the planet Dorx have a big fight on your way”. Bacon and Hobbes have already gotten everything on the space craft. They are ready to go. Calvin kisses Susie and Celeste doesn’t even notice. She’s too busy getting her stuff on board. She just hopes that the only one who gets defeated is Clovis-Rex.

Clovis-Rex is on his way to Pleasantville. He has had plenty to eat, but he wants dessert. That would be everybody in Pleasantville. The Aliens from the planet Dorx have seen him and they open fire. The rays just seem to bounce him and he just growls at them. The next instant, Clovis-Rex sends his own weapon at the aliens. A large growl sends the aliens space ship to the ground. The aliens are have passed out from the noise. Clovis-Rex just passes by them and heads off to eat Susie, Calvin and especially Bacon.

The Aliens have woken up and called Susie. After finding out what Clovis-Rex can do, she asks Bacon and Celeste to practice singing the Justin Bieber songs to make Clovis-Rex change back to just plain Clovis. She hopes it works. If it doesn’t, Calvin may have to use the new ray gun to destroy Clovis-Rex. She isn’t a killer.

The spaceship is ready to go after Clovis-Rex. In a sound proof room, Bacon and Celeste are singing Justin Bieber songs. The only thing that can stop Clovis-Rex from doing his damage to Pleasantville and the alien children at the hospital. In the distance, they spot Clovis-Rex. Calvin calls his daughter to tell her. Hobbes is ready to jump in him to distract him so that Bacon and Celeste can defeat him. “Calvin” says Celeste, “We’re ready. Do you want to hear some of the songs”? Calvin almost screams. “No, I don’t need to. Just save them for Clovis-Rex”. Susie giggles.

Clovis-Rex is closing in on Pleasantville when he sees Calvin’s spaceship. Calvin is a little too busy looking at Celeste to see Clovis-Rex. He jumps and grabs the spaceship. It falls to the ground. Calvin is knocked out, but Susie and Celeste are still awake and they see Clovis-Rex coming at them. “Bacon”, yells Susie, “Are you ready with the songs”? Bacon comes in and smiles. “Clovis-Rex is going down”, she says. Little does she know that the Justin Bieber songs won’t work on him anymore. Maybe Hobbes can distract him while Susie gets Calvin awake. She’ll talk to him about something later.

Bacon and Celeste are ready. Calvin is back and ready to land the spaceship. He brings it down to the ground and Bacon and Celeste get out. The have loud speakers ready and start singing the Justin Bieber songs. They have no effect on Clovis-Rex. As he comes after them, Hobbes jump on his neck and sinks his teeth into Clovis-Rex. He screams and falls. Calvin aims the ray gun at him just as Hobbes jumps off. Clovis-Rex screams from the pain. Celeste runs to him and hits him under his chin and knocks him back. Hobbes keeps biting him while Bacon uses her own ray gun on him.

Clovis-Rex uses the last bit of his strength and shakes Hobbes off his neck. He tries to stomp on Hobbes but Hobbes is just a little too quick. In a flash, he is gone, on his way to Pleasantville. Celeste screams,“Susie, we have to get to Pleasantville, now”. Clavin is already getting the engines ready. With everybody on board, they take off to Pleasantville. Clovis-Rex is faster than they thought. They can’t let him get to town before they do. Up above, the aliens from the planet Dorx are coming down. They see Clovis-Rex and go after him. They should get to him before Calvin does.

The spaceship is closing in on Clovis-Rex. Calvin fires his ray gun at Clovis-Rex, but he misses him. He fires again and this time, he hits Clovis-Rex in the back. He falls and turns. Then, with a loud roar, he sends the spaceship into a spiral and it hits the ground. The aliens are behind Clovis-Rex and fire at him. He runs away towards Pleasantville, now mad with anger. The entire town will be destroyed. Calvin has gotten back in the air. He is on his way to Pleasantville to stop Clovis-Rex.

Clovis-Rex is almost to Pleasantville. He is so hungry, but he wants revenge for what Susie did to him the last time. He sees the hospital and runs towards it. He stomps on it till there is nothing left. What he didn’t know is that the alien children were already removed. This makes Clovis-Rex even more angry. As he turns, he sees Calvin headed towards him. He is ready this time. Calvin will pay.

Clovis-Rex hides behind the rubble of the hospital. Calvin doesn’t see him. As soon as Calvin steps out of the spaceship, Clovis-Rex grabs him and shoves Calvin in his mouth. Susie screams and Bacon and Celeste start singing the Justine Bieber songs. They have no effect. Hobbes is behind Clovis-Rex and jumps on his neck. A sharp bite and Clovis-Rex howls. Calvin jumps out and punches him. Calvin hurts his fist. Susie fires the ray gun and knocks Clovis-Rex backwards. Now to use the new songs to bring Clovis-Rex back to just being Clovis.

Bacon and Celeste sing the new religious Justine Bieber songs to Clovis-Rex. He screams in pain. Suddenly, he starts to shrink back into Clovis. They keep singing until he has returned back into regular Clovis. Now, they load him on board and start back to give Clovis back to Darin. Dewey has the new songs in case Clovis returns to his evil Clovis-Rex. It will only be a few hours until they get back. Susie and Calvin will rebuild the hospital. Bacon wants to go live with Celeste. Calvin and Susie say nothing about it. But they think it would be a good thing for both Bacon and Celeste.

Bacon and Celeste have taken off with Clovis to give him back to Darin. Dewey is with them and is smiling. Calvin, Susie and Hobbes wave goodbye to them, knowing that Bacon will be happy with Celeste. “Celeste never interested me”, said Calvin. “I know”, said Susie, even though she knew he was lying. He’s a man. Time to say goodbye to the aliens from the planet Dorx. They wave as the aliens take off. Now it’s time to rebuild the hospital into a better hospital. They take off to Pleasantville, knowing that Clovis-Rex will never bother them again. As they leave, they all turn and say “Thank you, Katina, for telling the ending of this story. You will never be forgotten”. The end.
