Wukong and Bajie flew away from the jail quickly. They left Metro City and were soon drifting high above the mountains. They landed in an open meadow.
"Well, Wukong," Bajie said, "I'm glad you found me. I was afraid I'd be stuck alone in this world."
"It's good to see you, Bajie," Wukong said.
"I need a nap," Bajie said, lying down. "Then we should return to Master."
"Do you notice anything odd?" Wukong asked, looking around at the meadow and mountains.
"Not really," Bajie said and closed his eyes.
"These mountains resemble the mountains we're traveling through with Master," Wukong said. "But there's one big difference—there are no demons here."
"How do you know that?" Bajie asked with a snort.
"I can see really far, and I can sense demons," Wukong said. "I just realized I haven't sensed any demons since I arrived. Maybe we should stay here for a little while."
"I don't like this world," Bajie said, scowling. "They put me in jail, and for what? Because I ate a little bit of food—bah!"
Wukong tapped his chin. "What if we take over this place? That way they can't put you back in jail. And we'll get a break from fighting demons."
"I like that idea, but there's one person here who's pretty powerful."
Wukong raised an eyebrow. "Do you mean Rocket Girl?"
"Did you meet her?" Bajie asked.
Wukong nodded. "She's powerful, but she's not here anymore—I sent her to our world."
"Good work!" Bajie said with a laugh. "So let's take over this place. We'll boss everyone around and eat all their food."
"We're going to need an army to take over the kingdom," Wukong said thoughtfully. "I'll make a quick trip back to the Fruit and Flower Mountain."
"Watch this." Jack jumped off his sofa and started spinning around, kicking and throwing punches. "I'm the monkey!"
Mara laughed and snorted. "Look at me—I'm the pig!" She let out a big burp.
While Jack and Mara laughed, Terrell sneaked out of the room. He pulled out his phone and called Roxy, but she still didn't answer.
"Where is she?" Terrell wondered with a sigh. "And why won't she answer my calls?"
"Open up this door, Demon!" Roxy shouted. She punched and kicked the cave's door, yelling all sorts of terrible things.
Finally the Demon of Black Rain opened the door. "Why are you still here?"
"Release those prisoners right now!" Roxy yelled, stamping her foot.
"No!" The demon glared at Roxy. "You're a rude person! I'm trying to rest, and you're banging on my door and yelling mean things!"
Whiz-hoo! Roxy's eye laser beams zapped the demon's face.
"Ouch!" The demon threw a punch.
Roxy leaped out of the way. "Ha! You missed—"
Whoosh! Wind and rain swept Roxy away again. She tumbled down the side of the mountain, crashing through shrubs. Finally she landed at the bottom of the mountain. Up above, the cave's door slammed shut.
"Grr!" Roxy was about to fly back up the mountain.
Suddenly an old woman appeared. "Don't go back up there!"
