Finally, Gadget and the others crossed the bridge and found the secret catacombs.

"How are we gonna find the secret catacombs?" Penny asked the others.

"Don't worry Penny" Gadget pointed to the left "This way!"

Penny, Brain, Annie and Annie's dogs followed Gadget to the left of the castle, where he found the secret entrance.

"Like you said Annie," said Gadget "In the shadows to the left!"

"Then let's move!" Penny walked towards the catacombs.

"Not so fast Penny!" Gadget stopped her. "You're staying here with the dogs. This is too dangerous."

"You're uncle is right Penny," Annie told him "As I said, Elise is a dangerous person and she'd freeze you solid even if you look at her funny."

"Okay" Penny sighed "I'll wait here."

"If I don't come back, tell Tyson I love her" Gadget told his niece.

"Come back, okay?" Penny asked.

"I will" Gadget kissed Penny's temple.

Gadget and Annie entered the secret catacombs and crawled up to the castle.

Meanwhile up in Elise's castle, her crystal ball was ringing while she was sleeping.

"Wha?" She took off her sleepmask "What's going on?"

Elise walked over to the crystal ball and saw that it was showing static rather than our heroes crossing the bridge.

"Feh" she went back to bed "Must be off the fritz again."

Inside the secret catacombs, Gadget and Annie had been sneaking carefully to find the entrance.

"Go go gadget flashlight" Gadget unscrewed his finger and an LED light illuminated. "Let's see."

Gadget searched for the entrance and saw a manhole that led into the castle.

"There's a manhole" he pointed to the manhole "I think it leads to somewhere in Elise's castle. Go go gadget legs."

Gadget's legs extended and he lifted up the hatch to the manhole, which led to some sort of icy dungeon.

"What do you see up there inspector?" Annie asked Gadget.

"It's some sort of icy dungeon" said Gadget "Must be where they are keeping Santa, we'd better get up there."

Gadget's de-extended and he got up into the dungeon. Then, he extended his arms back into the catacombs and grabbed Annie and lifted her into the dungeon. They started to search for Santa.

"Oh Santa" Gadget whispered "Santa."

"Here boy" Annie whispered.

"Is someone there?" someone said from the distance.

"Annie, shut up" said Gadget "I hear something."

"Help, somebody" said the prisoner.

The two protagonists quickly followed the cries for help and found a cell that contained none other than...

"SANTA!" they shouted.

He was in a cell made out of ice.

"Inspector Gadget!" said Santa "And Annie!"

"Thank goodness we found you" said Annie "Now all we need to do is get you out of this icy prison."

"But how are you gonna get me out?" asked Santa "Elise has the keys to the cells."

Annie felt the bars on the cell "Hey wait! The bars are made out of ice. Inspector, do you have anything that can thaw these bars?"

"I sure do, Annie" said Gadget "Go go gadget blow torch!"

Gadget's hand went into his sleeve and out came a blow torch, which Gadget used to melt the bars on Santa's cell and Santa was freed. However, some alarm went off.

"Wowsers!" Gadget exclaimed "What's going on?"

"It's Elise's alarm" Santa told them "We've gotta get outta here."

While our heroes tried to make their way out of the castle, the alarm woke up Elise.

"Intruders!" she gasped and ran to the crystal ball "They've got Santa! I'll take care of this!"

As soon as Gadget, Annie and Santa made it out of the castle and back to Penny and the dogs, giant shards of ice started sprouting from the ground and surrounded our heroes.

"What the?" Penny asked "What's going on?"

Suddenly, Elise appeared "MWAH HA HA HA HA! Looks like you're all frozen out huh?"

"Crumbs" Penny said "It's the Snow Queen!"

"You and Dr. Claw will never get away with this, Elise" Santa exclaimed. "You'll never ruin the holidays!"

"That's what you think, Mr. Claus" Elise cackled "As white as snow, as wrong as right, create a blizzard to last throughout the whole starry night!"

Elise raised her hands and magical snowflakes flew into the clouds and a huge blizzard occured. Snowflakes were blown from strong winds in the sky and the air was very chilly, then again, this is the North Pole, so yeah.

"A blizzard?" Annie shut her eyes "What's going on?"

"With this blizzard, Santa will never be able to make his deliveries" Elise said "And no one will enjoy Christmas again! MWAH HA HA HA!"

Meanwhile at Santa's workshop, Dr. Claw was watching the whole thing on his monitor.

"WHAT?" Claw shouted "That pathetic snow queen wasn't supposed to prevent my delivery. Now I cannot deliver the mind control toys! I'll get you Snow Queen! But not before I get you Gadget!"

Claw pressed a button on a remote and his MAD Jet landed right in front of Santa's workshop. He carried MAD Cat and ran into his MAD Jet and zoomed into the sky. He may not have been able to use his brain control toys, but at least the kids will be depressed when they wake up.

Meanwhile, our heroes were still trapped in the ice cage.

"We've gotta get outta here, but how?" Penny wondered.

"I've got an idea!" Gadget snapped his fingers "Go go gadget flamethrower!"

A flamethrower came out of Gadget's coat and it shot flames right at the ice and it melted.

"You forget, I have gadgets on my side" Gadget told Elise.

"You may have prevented children from getting toys, but you still have lost Elise!" Penny told her.

"What are you talking about, you little brat?" Elise growled. "I have destroyed Christmas!"

"No you haven't!" Penny walked up to Elise and caused her to back up towards a cliff "Christmas is a time for family! For love and for caring about others! It's a two way straight! You don't get things because you want them, you have to earn and deserve them! And you will not destroy the holidays!"

Penny pushed Elise, who fell off the edge of the cliff and started holding onto a branch, which was about to snap.

"HELP!" she shouted "HELP! HELP!"

"Wowsers!" Gadget gasped "Elise is in trouble!"

"We've got to save her!" Sanata said "Come on."

Gadget extended his arm down to Elise's and grabbed her hand, however that wasn't enough.

"Come on" Gadget tried to pull her "I could use a hand!"

"Quick Brain!" Penny grabbed Brain "Uncle Gadget needs our help!"

"Ruff!" Brain ran towards the cliff.

Soon, Annie and her snow dogs helped pull Elise as well and finally, she was pulled up to safety.

"You, you saved my life." Elise stared at them.

"You were in trouble" Penny explained "No one should be alone and sad and hurt on Christmas."

"Thanks" Elise said "I owe you guys a lot."

"And I think the thing you owe Penny is a wish" Santa said "After all, abonormally powerful and unusual humans are all about rules and their word."

"Yep" Gadget said "That's what we are all about!"

"Fine" Elise sighed "What is your wish, Penny? But you can't wish for more wishes."

"Rats" Annie said "I was totally gonna suggest that."

"I want you to be nice" Penny folded her arms.

"Nuh uh" Elise shook her head "Anything but that! I got an idea! Penny, how about a new doll or something?"

"I want you to be nice" Penny said again.

"Very well" Elise raised her hands at herself "Melt away oh heart of ice. You heard me right, make me nice."

Some magic sprinkles came from Elise's hands and she was suddenly frozen in a daze.

"Is she okay?" Gadget raised an eyebrow.

"Ruff?" Brain walked up to her.

"Awww" Elise snapped out of her daze "What a cute widdle puppy!"

Elise picked up Brain and started kissing his whole face.

"Are you sure she's changed?" Penny asked Santa.

"Beats me" said Santa. "I don't have powers like hers."

"But I have changed, Penny" Elise said sincerely "On the inside."

"Good" said Annie "Then call off this storm."

"That's out of my league." Elise explained "You see, once I call on a storm, it has to take its natural course."

"Well thanks anyways" Penny waved goodbye as she, Gadget, Annie, Santa and the dogs ran.

"You're welcome" Elise waved to them "And merry Christmas!"

Our heroes went back to the Gadgetmobile and drove back to Santa's workshop.
