Episode 9: A trip to hometown
After the heroes arrived in the city, many didn’t have a chance to return home where they belonged. Woody was conversing with Buzz saying that he misses Andy’s hometown and wants to get back to Andy’s house. But however, Buzz’s jetpack ain’t gonna have enough power to travel back to the house. So they pondered on how to do so until they hit upon a brainwave. They could fly a plane or a helicopter with their new friends to their homes and they can discover new things. So the duo gathered the heroes and proposed a trip overseas. The heroes agreed that they needed a break. So they booked a ticket for the earliest flight. Tron agreed to stay back and watch and protect the city while they are gone.
First, they headed for Andy’s house. Buzz led the tour and Woody made sure everyone was present. Buzz explained: “Ever since Andy went to college, the house was sold to another person.” They sneakily head inside through a hole in the gate. And much has changed! The changes were so big that the backyard of the house was beyond recognition. They nearly thought that they went to the wrong house.
Then, they headed to Bonnie’s house, where they apparently was transported to her room once in the city. When they entered, they saw Bonnie’s mom’s car approaching and they quickly found a place to hide. But the toys were delighted to see Bonnie and their old friends, and she played with them, even if see wasn’t a kid. So they played and played till the evening. When she fell asleep, they had to think of where next to go. Duke Caboom and Ducky suggested that they could go to the carnival. But this distance wasn’t a walkable one. Luckily, Mulan had spare rockets. She sent everyone shooting through the sky and they landed on a circus tent. The toys were surprised that the carnival was still here!
The plush duo, Ducky and Bunny said in synchronization: “Home sweet home. When we were free…” Bo Peep visited her mini friends and Duke did a show to entertain the rest of the heroes. And they slept in the night, hidden deep in a tent.
Early next morning, the heroes managed to get into a taxi headed for the airport. They next were bound for China, Mulan’s hometown.
She greeted her friends in Chinese: "朋友们,好久不见!“ (Long time no see, my dear friends!) The heroes had a hard time trying to converse in Chinese but they did learn some Chinese culture while they explored Mulan’s village.
They then boarded a plane back to the city and got a train ticket to Zootopia. They were shocked that this metropolis had a diverse range of animals! The lions, Timon and Pumbaa went to the Sahara Sqaure, and Nick, Bogo and Judy went to the ZPD. Some heroes went to the new Mystic Oasis Spring and had relaxation lessons and hot baths. It was an enjoyable experience.
And after 15 days of traveling, the heroes finally head back to the city, full of memories, knowledge and best of all? They had a good time. They agreed to do that again soon. And everything went back to normal, but memories etched in their minds.
