The group then arrives at the place they were supposed to meet Bill at as they begin to walk around.

"You got the crown?" A voice asks startling the group as it reveals to be Bill pointing a gun at them.

"Yeah but first you hand over Chris." Jupiter says as the group walk a bit closer to Bill.

"Such an intelligent boy. You never understand who has the bargaining part. I receive the crown first or else." Bill says as he pulls Chris out from behind a column.

"I still can't believe Bill's behind all this. We trusted him." Peter says.

"But it's not Bill." Jupiter says.

"What do you mean?" Alexis asks as she looks at Jupiter.

"Jupiter he's standing right there." Bob whispers as Jupiter looks at him.

"No he's not." Jupiter says as he looks back at Bill.

"Yes he is." Alexis whispers.

"Alexis and Bob are right." Peter whispers as Jupiter takes a few steps forward.

"You see there's no such person as Bill. Allow me to introduce you to Victor Hugenay." Jupiter says as he looks back at the others and gestures to Bill.

"Hugenay?" Peter asks.

"The forger of the Rembran?" Bob asks as Bill laughs and steps away from Chris.

"You impress me. You people can see past my disguises. How did you know?" Victor asks as he takes off his disguise and smiles.

"Who else could have done such a masterful forgery? But you can never resist taking credit for your work." Jupiter says as he reveals the signature on the forgery painting.

"Very clever but not clever enough. The crown if you please." Victor says as Jupiter hands him his bag before Victor takes the crown out and looks at it.

"Now let Chris go!" Jupiter says as Chris tries to go over to the others before Victor grabs her.

"On second thought I think I'll keep her as a traveling companion for a little while longer." Victor says.

"No!" Chris shouts as she looks at Victor.

"We had a deal! Now let her go!" Alexis says angrily as she goes over beside Jupiter.

"Ah yes but as you can see I break my deals and promises quite easily. Stay where you are. If you follow I will shoot the girl." Victor says as he leaves with Chris shouting for help as the group soon quickly follow after them.

"There!" Alexis says as they see Victor about to leave with Chris on a glider.

"Run!" Jupiter shouts as the group run over but are not able to get to Chris and Victor fast enough before they take off flying on the glider.

"I've got an idea. This one carries four." Peter says as he goes past a gate and picks up a glider and looks at the group.

"Oh no." Jupiter says as the group reluctantly get talked into using the glider by Peter as they get ready to leave with it.

"Wind conditions are optimal but I have no idea if this is gonna work." Bob says nervously.

"Peter you better know what you're doing." Alexis says.

"Don't worry. I've been paragliding before. It's fun." Peter says.

"I change my mind. I wanna find my own way to follow victor." Alexis says nervously.

"It'll be fine Alexis. You'll like it." Peter says as Alexis gives a nervous look.

"Did I mention I have a fear of-" Jupiter then gets cut off as Peter causes the group to run off the edge and struggle to get control of the glider.

"Peter what on earth are you doing!?" Alexis shouts as the group narrowly miss colliding with some rocks.

"I thought you said you've gone paragliding before!?" Jupiter asks.

"Well once! With an instructor!" Peter says as Alexis, Bob, and Jupiter look at him.

"Why aren't you ever afraid of what you should be afraid of!?" Bob asks.

"There they are!" Alexis shouts pointing to Victor in the distance before Victor then flies above them and kicks the paraglider causing the group to go spiraling out of control before gaining it back as they are now flying between the city buildings.

"My plane ticket." Peter says as his plane ticket falls out of his pocket.

"There he is!" Bob says as the group manage to catch up to Victor as they spot him in the distance.

"He's heading for the airport!" Jupiter shouts.

"She's fighting with him." Alexis says as Victor and Chris go down in Chris's home town before the group land as the kids of the town crowd around them.

"You have to help us. Chris is in danger. We have to get to her quick." Jupiter says as one of the kids shouts in his native language.

"Follow us guys." Alexis says as she and the boys lead the kids of the town to where Victor is as the kids then begin to surround victor from all sides and pin him until the police arrive. As the kids get off Victor Alexis and the boys go over to him as the police get out of the cars.

"Officer this is Victor Hugenay. The famous art forger. He attacked miss Wilbur with a baboon and he stole the crown of the Xhosa Princess. Arrest him." Jupiter says as the police place Victor under arrest while Chris comes over.

"Are you alright?" Alexis asks as Chris nods.

"Yeah I'm okay." Chris says.
