The episode began as we see Cyndro's purple scales. And then we zoom out to see Cyndro as a young dragon, and then a voice is heard.
Cyndro: you wanna know what is my least favorite part of the year?
His sister, Spynder, appeared, smirking over-confidently.
Cyndro: the Annual Skyland Dragon Race. Animals from all around the Skylands come to watch. This year, it's at the Academy.
Spynder sped ahead. Cyndro tried to keep up.
Cyndro: Why am I so bummed out about an exciting and competitive race?
Spynder went through the finish line. Cyndro sighed.
Cyndro: It's because....
We briefly see a shot of Spynder's eyes and then it zooms out to everyone congratulating her. The screen flashed to Cyndro, who is on third place, being hit with a pie by Spynder.
Cyndro: of my sister. She always wins with Midnight's support. Why am I not surprised that Midnight's supporting her? I don't know. The ASDR will only happen in the academy again in another six years. But this year... I will win... because this year... I am a skylander. And Skylanders always win.
The screen flashes away from Cyndro and goes to the theme song. It then flashes to Kaossandra.
Kaossandra: It is time for the Annual Skyland Dragon Race — Or ASDR —
Cyndro: *Sarcastically* Oh, great. Just perfect.
Crystal: c'mon Cyndro! You have to win.
Cyndro: why're you on my side again?
Crystal: I want the boys to have mercy.
Cyndro: I'm glad your my friend.
Spynder: hey, Cyndro!
Cyndro: *groans* what, Sis?
Spynder: Your lookin' at the reigning champion, Cyndro.
Cyndro: and why do you want me to?
Spynder: Cause I want to remember your FACE when you lose the RACE! Hey that rhymes...
Cyndro: you only rhymed like that six years ago, and before THAT Dragon Race!
Spynder: Really?! Oh. I didn't realize how I could be such a... WINNER! Hahahahahaha!
Spynder flew away and Cyndro was annoyed. Not only that but doubtful that he could win it.
Crystal: c'mon... *pushes Cyndro away*
THE NEXT DAY~
Kaossandra: it is time for the Annual Skyland Dragon Race!
All the Skylanders cheer
Kaossandra: Up first is Cyndro vs the lava island dragon Flame!
Flame: Catch up slowpoke!!
Cyndro sighed. Flame was always the more overconfident one. He sped ahead.
Kaossandra: Ooooh Cyndro is gaining speed!
Flame: WHAT?! Uggh!
She sped ahead with some flames coming out of her wings which blinded Cyndro in the eyes.
Cyndro: ack!!
Crystal: Go Cyndro!
Midnight: Don't give up now!
Cyndro sped up to Flame and they were neck-and-neck. Flame blinded him with some ashes and he stopped.
Academy Crowd: *to Flame* Cheater! CHEATER!!!
Kaossandra: Flame you are disqualified for cheating.
Flame: WHAT?! YOU AREN'T THE ONE TO DECIDE THAT OLD LADY I AM
The lava island ruler, Coal, ordered his guards to pull flame away and they did.
Coal: Flame, please. and I'm terribly sorry about her.
Kaossandra: it's fine. Go!
They flew out. Cyndro, still recovering from the Ash attack, is rubbing his eyes with his paws.
Crystal: Cyndro, are you okay!?
Cyndro: yeah. My eyes are a bit dusty though. I can barely see you in front of me.
Jet:I'm Glad your okay, Cyndro.
Kaossandra: coming up next is Spynder vs the ice island dragon Snow!
Snow: Always a pleasure to be racing with you, Spynder!
Spynder: You too, Snow.
Cyndro liked Snow —Not like THAT shippers, Cyndro's not interested in anyone like that!!— She was always kind and never cheated—Unlike someone ELSE he knows—. She saw racing as a way to make friends. She was never the competitive type, unlike Spynder.
Kaossandra: Ready...
They crouch down, ready to fly
Kaossandra: Set...
They smirk at each other and they both look at the horizon
Kaossandra: GO!
Snow: *starts flying* YES!
Spynder: *starts flying also* WHOO YEAH!!!!
Spynder turns around on a mountain so does Snow but she takes a shortcut around the mountain, the shortcut she always does.
{10 races later}
Kaossandra: the final race! Cyndro vs Spynder!
Cyndro: *looks down* oh gods...
Spynder: HA!
Cyndro and Spynder got on the track.
Spynder: I'm going to win...
Cyndro: yeah, you always do...
Spynder: something wrong, bro?
Cyndro: No. nothing. Why would you care? You only care about winning, not me, your own brother!
Spynder: I-
Kaossandra: Ready...
Spynder felt bad as she got ready to crouch down. Is that what he felt like? Does he think she doesn't care about him? Is he doubtful about himself, thanks to her winning all the time?
Kaossandra: Set...
She does care about him. Like a sister should. Like a big sister should care about her little brother.
Kaossandra: GO!!
They set off. Spynder glanced at Cyndro, who was far behind her, and that only made her feel more bad. She fell back for Cyndro to catch up.
Kaossandra: Spynder's letting Cyndro catch up!
Midnight: what?
Crystal: why would she do that? *Midnight shrugs*
They were now neck and neck. When Cyndro got ahead of her, she boosted her speed but not too much. She did a flip as usual but she didn't speed up, like she normally would. They were at the finish line....
Cyndro wins!!!
Crystal: YES!
Jet: alright!
Kaossandra: the winner of the ASDR is... Cyndro the Dragon! Second place is Spynder the Dragon! Third is Snow the dragon! Congratulations, Cyndro, Spynder, and Snow!
Spynder: good job, Bro!
Cyndro: thanks. Guess there's a new champion now, huh, sis?
Spynder: There's always another race, bro!
They laughed.
Spynder: and by the way, Bro?
Cyndro: hm?
Spynder:...I do care about you. A lot, in fact. I'm so sorry I made you feel that way. I love you as my brother.
Cyndro: it's okay, sis. I love you too as my sister.
