"I'm still hungry," the pig complained, patting his belly.
"It's a talking pig," Roxy whispered to Detective Smith.
"He's holding a rake," Detective Smith said.
The bakery's owner raced outside, yelling, "You destroyed my bakery!"
"Bah!" The pig walked away.
"Stop right there!" Roxy ordered.
The pig snorted. "No!"
Whiz-hoo! Roxy fired her eye laser beams, striking the pig in the face.
"Ouch! How did you do that?" he asked, rubbing his face.
"I have super powers!" Roxy flew into him, and they tumbled across the sidewalk. People leaped out of the way.
The pig jumped to his feet and swung his rake. "Who are you?"
"Every villain knows who I am," Roxy said, dodging the rake. Whiz-hoo! She shot her eye laser beams again.
The pig blocked the laser beams with his rake. "But I'm not a villain—I'm Zhu Bajie."
"Well, I'm Rocket Girl—a powerful superhero!" Roxy said, charging toward Bajie.
Bajie puffed out his chest. "I'm a powerful spirit!" He held up his rake, ready to strike, but Roxy slammed into him—pow! Bajie flew backward.
"Watch out!" A woman on a bike swerved.
Crack! Bajie hit a fire hydrant. Water sprayed, and a taxi slid into a flower stand.
As Roxy checked on the taxi driver, Bajie rubbed his head. "I'd better escape," he thought. "This person is powerful, like a goddess."
Bajie recited a spell. As he leaped onto a cloud, a delicious aroma drifted through the air toward him.
"What wonderful food is that?" he murmured. Bajie followed the smell. It was coming from a building in the distance.
"Where did Zhu Bajie go?" Roxy murmured, looking around.
"The pig flew away on a cloud," Detective Smith said, hurrying over.
Roxy's eyes went wide. "He can fly? Which way did he go?"
"That way," Detective Smith said, pointing toward Metro City Elementary School.
Roxy flew fast and spotted Bajie landing near the school's entrance. She landed in front of him.
Bajie waved his rake back and forth. "Leave me alone!"
Roxy grabbed the rake.
"Look!" Mara said. "It's Rocket Girl—she's fighting a pig!"
Roxy's friends ran to the window.
"Let go of my rake!" Bajie shouted.
"No!" Roxy yanked the rake from his hand.
"Go, Rocket Girl," Terrell cried, pumping his fist.
Bajie stomped toward Roxy, but abruptly he stopped to bend over and take a breath.
Roxy scratched her head. "Er . . . What are you doing?"
"Resting," Bajie answered.
Roxy's mouth dropped open. "What?"
"I'm tired!" Bajie yelled, "and I—burp!—I ate too much."
"You're under arrest, Bajie," Roxy said.
Suddenly Bajie pulled a sign out of the ground and flung it at Roxy. She ducked, and the sign hit a passing truck.
"Ahh!" The driver crashed into a bush.
Roxy hurried away to check on the driver. When she returned, Bajie had disappeared.
Using her super hearing, she heard snoring. She followed the sound to the school's equipment shed. She threw the door open and saw Bajie inside, sleeping on a gym mat. Slowly and quietly, Roxy lifted Bajie up and carried him off to jail.
