Everything had been destroyed, the frobots along with Darcy had gotten away with the gems, and to make matters worse they learned that Darcy already has a portal to Earth, it's only a matter of time before they find out the last gem is back at Earth. Anne and Sasha were searching for survivors, eventually Andrias showed up to help out with rescue and recovery. "Why did I have to help that heartless bastard all those years ago??" He asked himself. Hop Pop went to make sure his grandchildren were ok, "Are you two alright?" He asked. "Don't worry Hop Pop we're both fine." Said Sprig. He quickly hugged his grand kids glad to know that they were both alright. Meanwhile Anne was still trying to process everything that had happened. "How are we gonna stop Darcy now?! We don't even know where their base is!" She said. Olivia showed up and said "We're gonna send our soldiers all around Amphibia to see if they can find it, but don't expect word from them anytime soon." But Sasha replied "By the time they find their base it will be too late, Darcy will probably have already found out that the gem is somewhere on Earth, then they'll go looking for it there." "So what are we supposed to do then?? Asked Ivy. And Anne replied, the only thing I can think of is returning to Earth, we have to warn everyone about what's coming, I know where the last gem is, my parents study it with Mr. X at a research lab, I can explain it all to them, we take the gem to the governor and have it locked into a vault where Darcy will never find it, but we need to be quick." When Sprig heard that he said "Wait you're going back to Earth already??! But you just got here!" And Anne replied "Yeah I know, but hey, I'm not saying that you can't come with me." When Sprig heard that he said in excitement "You mean I get to visit your world!? Awesome!" But then Polly said "Look Sprig, I don't think your taking things seriously right now, Anne's home world is in danger." And Sprig replied "I'm well aware of that! But remember, we all fought in a war, we can handle it." And then Ivy said "And I'm coming along to make sure my boyfriend doesn't get hurt." Sasha then looked at Olivia and Yunan and asked if they would want to come with them but Yunan said "We'd like to join you all but we got a lot of wounded toads that need our help here." But then Andrias showed up and said "You go along with them, I'll take care of that, I used to be a king after all. Also, Anne, when you see Marcy, tell her that I'm sorry for everything I've done, I never got to properly apologize to her." And Anne said "Don't worry Andrias, it was the Core that made her the way she is now, not you." Sasha then said "Alright, let's get back to Earth before Darcy can." 
They eventually arrived at the portal, Hop Pop and his family packed all their belongings for this trip, Anne used her powers to activate the portal, they went through, on the other side Dr. Terri was shocked to see so many people come through, Anne looked at her and said "I'm sorry there's no time for us to explain, we need to find my parents! I'll call you to explain it to you later ok?" They all ran out of the room in a hurry. 
They arrived at the lab where Anne's parents worked at. Once they were let inside, they searched around the lab. "Huh, so this is where they keep the gem huh? Man, I've never seen any structures like this before." Said Yunan. "Welcome to Earth." Said Sasha. They eventually found Anne's parents observing the calamity gem with Mr. X. "Mom! Dad!" Anne shouted. Her parents saw her and asked "Woah Anne what are you doing here I? thought you were spending a week at Amphibia, why are they all here?" Anne the said "Look, I've got a lot to tell you..."
(One explanation later...)
Anne's parents couldn't believe what they were hearing, the Core had returned somehow, and now they were planning to invade Earth again, they already had a portal device to Earth, yet they're hunting for all the calamity gems. Anne's father said "I thought you defeated the Core!" And Anne said "I thought so too! But somehow they had some sort of backup or something." Anne's mother asked "What do we do then??" Then Sasha said "We need to take that gem and bring it to the President, we need to warn everyone about what's coming so they can prepare, and then we get that gem to somewhere where Darcy cannot find it!" And Mr. X said "Agreed, getting to the President should be easy, we work for the FBI so I'm sure they'll let us in." They entered the room and took the gem, Mr. X placed it inside a briefcase. Hop Pop asked "How long will it take to get to the President?" And Anne's mother said "Maybe a few hours. He lives in Washington DC." "Oh boy..." Said Olivia. They left the lab and went on their way.
Meanwhile back in Amphibia, Darcy arrived at their base, they brought the two calamity gems to a chamber, they placed the gems down into a glass container and pulled a switch, suddenly, a massive vial of dark energy began to drain slightly as it was converted into electricity, soon, the two gems were zapped with that electricity and the gems suddenly turned bright orange. Darcy smiled after seeing this "Yes... it's working!" They met up with all the frobots and said "Minions, it is almost time, we just need the last gem, and once it is found and injected with the matter, Earth will fall before our very grasp... And yet, I cannot sense the presence of the last gem anywhere in Amphibia... Hmmm..." Darcy closed their eyes and started processing this. Eventually they came to a conclusion. They said "It seems the last gem is not here in Amphibia, it's on Earth, perfect. Ready the portal, We're going on a trip through dimensions."
