From the palace, dark cold eyes glared at the group of stars that acted as his crystal ball.

"The prince... and his friends?" he snarled. "He is pathetic, thinking mortals could help him stop me!"

He held out his tires, swirling them around in dark glowing stars.

"Magic of the stars, do as I command," he chanted, "stop them from completing their task at hand! Make a wave so big and strong, they will say nothing but 'So long'!"

Magical stars appeared and glowed red at the words and headed off to where the group were.

And not too far away, a wave made of stardust began to form.

"Hey, uh, Crusher? Should all that stardust be bunchin' up like that?" Starla asked, pointing to the star tsunami forming in the distance.

"What?" Crusher looked ahead and gasped. "No, it shouldn't!!"

"It looks like a tsunami!" Stripes cried. "A huge waves that forms after an earthquake!"

"And it's coming our way! What do we do?!" Watts asked.

"Let's try to stop it!" Blaze cried out.

"How?!?" Pickle yelled.

"With star magic!" Crusher said. "Blaze, you and AJ try it first!"

"Alright!"

"Let's do this!"

The duo drove forward, tires and hangs twirling.

"Uh... now what do we do?" AJ asked.

"Give the stars a command! Hurry!" Crusher urged.

"Okay!" Blaze pointed at the stars. "Stars, in my command, make a wall, to protect us, let it stand tall!!"

At Blaze's command, the stars formed a huge wall as the tsunami crashed into it, protecting them.

"Blaze, it worked!" AJ cheered.

But, more stardust gathered to make an even bigger tsunami, and it was thundering toward them.

"Or... not..." Zeg gulped.

"Watts, you try now!" Blaze cried.

"On it!" Watts twirled her tires, electricity with stars. "Stars, I command to oppose the stars, merge with my tires to electrify them and send the far!!"

The stars around them gained some of Watts' electricity power, and sent the tsunami back even further.

"Ha-ha! That oughta teach that Star King!" Darington grinned.

But, right on cue, the tsunami gained even more stars than ever, and came toward them as tall as a 5 story building!

"OH COME ON!!!"

"Now what do we do?!" Stripes hissed.

"We need to combine!" Crusher cried. "Mom said that a combination of magic abilities are stronger than a single attack!"

"Okay, everyone join together!" Blaze commanded. "Follow Crusher's lead!"

Crusher was in the front, swirling his tires together. Everyone else followed along after him, and chanted the spell together.

"With this spell, a power shall glow, with this power, this tsunami shall GO!!"

At their words, a rainbow of stardust wrapped around the tsunami, shrinking it down to size.

"YES!!" Pickle cheered.

"We did it!" Gabby giggled.

The doe happily went up to them, nuzzling AJ's face, causing him to giggle.

"I think she's congratulating us on a job well done," he said.

"Thanks," Stripes said. "But that king really doesn't want us coming."

"Another reason why we should get moving," Blaze said.

"Yeah," Crusher agreed. "If we're getting things to stop us then the Star King knows that we're here. We need to hurry,"

"Let's go!"

With that they all sped off.

The Star King was beyond pissed as he watched them drive closer towards him.

"DRAT!!! The tsunami wasn't enough!" he snarled. "But I know what is!"

He swirled his tires around, the stars darkening more in his rage.

"Magic stars, dragons of sun and fire! Stop those fools from completing their desire!!"

The stars formed and shifted in the forms of two dragons, roaring out fire and sun before flying off.

And out of nowhere, two loud roars were heard.

"W-Whoa!! What was that?!" Darington shrieked.

"Up there, look!"

They gasped to see two large dragons made of stars fly towards them.

"Sun dragons!" Crusher cried. "Dragons who shoot fire as hot as the sun!"

"What do we do, Blaze?" Stripes asked.

"Uhh Crusher?" Blaze turned to Crusher for help. "What do we do?"

"Okay, we need a way to tame the dragons so that way they're easier to control," Crusher said. "Has anyone here ever rode a dragon?"

"Blaze and I have," AJ answered.

"Okay, you two will need to get up onto each one of the dragons' backs," Crusher said. "Once you're steady, use your magic to calm the dragons down."

"Got it!" AJ said, hopping onto Blaze's back.

"Hold on, AJ! I'm taking our speed up a notch!"

"Alright!" AJ nodded as Blaze revved his engine before zooming off.

Jumping off the track, they each leapt onto a dragon, who started roaring and trying to buck them off.

"Woah, woah! Easy!" AJ shushed, gently stroking the dragon.

"Whoa! These dragons aren't easy to calm down!" Blaze said.

"Blaze, maybe you can use your magic!" Pickle suggested.

"I'll try!" Blaze nodded and twirled his tires.

With a command in mind, the stars twirled slowly around the dragons, slowly calming them down.

"It's working!" Pickle smiled.

Soon, the dragons had calmed down completely.

"There you go," Blaze said as the dragons lowered onto the path. "Nice and easy."

"Dragons in my world are generally really sweet, but when they get mad, that's when they give you trouble," Crusher said as Blaze and AJ hopped down.

"Did that meany Star King give you a hard time?" Pickle asked cutely.

The dragons whimpered and nodded.

"Don't worry about him," AJ said. "You just go on and stay safe. We'll take care of him."

The dragons nodded, and signifying their respect, they bowed before Crusher before taking off to the sky.

"Do you think they'll be okay?" Gabby asked worriedly. "What if the Star King gets ahold of them again?"

"They'll be fine," Crusher assured her. "But, we better find somewhere to stay for the night-- it's getting late as it is."

"Where will we go? All I see are stars, stars and more stars, all over the place!" Darington said.

Stripes looked toward the doe with hopeful eyes. "I don't suppose you'd like to help us out again?"

The doe nodded and led them down the path.

"Where do you think she's leading us?" Blaze wondered.

"I don't know," Starla answered, "but she sure knows what she's a-doin'."

She soon led the group to field of stars, all looking solid as they shifted and moved around in form.

"Huh? Why we here? It just more stars," Zeg questioned.

The doe motioned for the stars. Crusher smiled and swirled his tires around.

"Stars of bright, stars at best, provide a shelter for us to rest!"

At his command, the stars opened into a doorway, and Crusher immediately grinned.

"Come on! I know where this doorway leads!"

"Alright! Lead the way!" Blaze smiled.

They made it through the doorway, and they were met with what looked to be the inside of a cozy home, the stars steady and formed into furniture.

"Whoa... where are we?" Blaze asked.

"Welcome, young ones,"

They all turned to see the fairy, with sparkling wings like the stars as she flew down towards them.

"Guys, meet Chieftess Estrella," Crusher said. "She's the leader of the Moon Fairy village that's right outside."

As soon as she got a good look at Crusher, more specifically, the glow from his lightning marks, Estrella gasped.

"Prince Crusher? Oh, look at you! You've gotten so big!" she beamed, pulling Crusher into a hug.

"It's nice to see you too, Chieftess," Crusher smiled.

"We're sorry for barging in unannounced, chieftess," Blaze said with a bow. "But we need somewhere to stay for the night while we're on our way to battle the Star King."

"Oh? Of course, of course," Estrella smiled and nodded. "Please, make yourself at home,"

"Thank you," AJ smiled, and they all set sleeping bags out on the floor.

"How have you been these past few years, child?" Estrella asked Crusher. "Losing your mother to that heartless king can't be easy."

"I've been… good," Crusher strained a smile.

"I'm here to provide comfort if you need it," Estrella wrapped an arm around him. "She was a dear friend of mine too."

Crusher smiled and let her comfort him with a sigh. "I miss her…"

"I know you do," the chieftess sighed and hugged him. "She was a gentle soul, but I have a feeling we will find her someday. Now, get some sleep. You have a long journey ahead tomorrow."

As she covered him up with a blanket, the doe entered the room, laying between Blaze, AJ and Crusher.

"Oh, hey," Crusher greeted the warmth as the doe joined them.

"This doe has been helping us all throughout the trip," AJ yawned. "She's... really great."

No sooner than he had said that, they all went into a deep sleep, and Estrella smiled.

"Good night, young ones."
