The balloon animals started smashing windows and chasing people.
The clowns laughed and ran off.
Crash! A balloon lion knocked over a hot dog stand.
"My hot dogs!" the owner cried.
"Rocket Girl, help!" a woman cried.
A balloon tiger snapped its jaws at her.
Roxy shot toward the balloon tiger.
The tiger spun around and faced her.
Roxy grabbed it and held it on the ground.
The tiger wriggled free and then rolled on top of her.
"Grr!" Roxy struggled with the big balloon.
She squeezed as hard as she could.
Pop! The balloon tiger zipped back and forth as the air left it.
Soon the lifeless balloon fell to the street.
Roxy quickly popped all the other balloon animals.
Then she went after the clowns.
Terrell, Jack, and Mara were in science.
Terrell pointed out the window. "I see clowns!"
Mara scratched her head. "Why are they jogging?"
Mr. Bubbles stopped jogging.
"Take a break, boys," he said.
"I need . . . to catch . . . my breath."
The other clowns fell over.
"I can't run anymore, boss," one said.
"My legs are tired!"
"It's too bad we left the car," another said.
Mr. Bubbles nodded. "This escape isn't going well."
"There you are!" Roxy swooped down toward the clowns.
"Quick, boys!" Mr. Bubbles cried. "Run!"
The other clowns tried to move.
But police officers arrived and surrounded them.
Roxy didn't see Detective Smith.
"I guess he's still afraid of clowns."
She grabbed Mr. Bubbles' arm.
"You're going back to prison!" she said.
Mr. Bubbles pulled a rubber chicken from his pocket. "Grow!"
The rubber chicken grew fast.
Cluck, cluck! The giant rubber chicken pecked at Roxy.
Whiz-hoo! Roxy's eye laser beams blasted it into little pieces.
Terrell looked around.
"Roxy is never around when Rocket Girl shows up," he thought.
Mr. Bubbles squeezed the flower on his jacket.
Smoke poured out.
Roxy felt the clown slip from her hand.
"Where did he go?" Roxy couldn't see anything.
She heard a click.
Roxy used her super breath to blow away the smoke.
Detective Smith stood next to Mr. Bubbles.
The clown was in handcuffs.
"You came!" Roxy said.
Detective Smith nodded.
"I decided to face my fear, just like you said.
Thanks, Rocket Girl."
Roxy walked into school.
"You missed the clowns, Roxy!" Jack said.
"And a giant rubber chicken!" Mara said.
"Really?" Roxy pretended to be surprised.
Terrell gave Roxy a suspicious look.
"You also missed Rocket Girl—again."
Roxy just shrugged.
