Jake and Ark was put on a mission to see if the Dark Dragon or Dave could be at a magical parade that was being held that day. They waited in the subway for the right time to go to the magical world of New York City and saw that the parade had already started. They stayed hidden in the crowd and waited for any sign of the Dark Dragon or Dave.
They saw him at last on one of the floats. He was sitting next to a man they didn't recognize. Jake took a closer look and said, "Who is that man?" "I am not sure but we shouldn't try anything yet," Ark said. 'It almost sounds like he doesn't want me to save Dave,' Jake thought.
Ark gave an evil smile that was hidden by the shadows of his robe. 'My plan is working just perfectly. Dave is in his trance and I seem like a sixteen year old,' the Dark Dragon thought.
Dave looked straight at the Dark Dragon and Jake just as he was forced to do. He stared right into Jake's eyes. 'Jake! Help me!' he thought in his head. Jake knew he couldn't wait and went after Dave but it was all planned. Chang appeared and transformed. She knocked Jake back and he hit Ark which wasn't planned. The control over Dave broke and he ran to get off the float and get to Jake.
Chang grabbed Dave but Dave pulled out of her grasp. He ran to Jake and grabbed his arm and pulled him up to run. "Hurry! We got to run!" Dave yelled. They tried to run away but Dave was tripped. "Dave!" Jake yelled and turned to get Dave but Chang already got him and the Dark Dragon was in his dragon form and had control over Dave again.
They flew away leaving Jake behind. "Ark! Ark!" Jake yelled but he couldn't find him. He gave up after a few minutes of searching and went back to the electronics shop in defeat.
