"Guys!" Eloise cried out. "Are you going to be alright?"

Akito and Estelle looked to her with small joking smiles.

"We're going to be fine," AKito laughed a little. "We're right here, aren't we?"

"Oh, right, sorry, I guess I just got too much into the story." Eloise apologized.

"It's okay, Ellie..." Estelle chuckled, ruffling up her blonde hair.

"So, what happened while that was going on?" Scruffy asked his father.

"Well, Spike and I didn't come back until near the end because the wolf eventually caught up to the kids." Patch explained.

Eloise looked horrified. "Oh, goodness, no!"

"Oh, my..." Scruffy said.

"We had a lot of trouble before that..." Akito came back to the story. "We were riding away in the Reptar Wagon so the wolf wouldn't get us then and we passed a couple of park rangers."

"Wow." Eloise said, surprised.

Flashback cut to the Reptar Wagon passing a Disney-esque forest, frightening the creatures instantly as the wagon roared.

"This wagon is so cool!" Estelle cheered.

"Oh, I hope we find help soon!" Chuckie cried.

There were two park rangers, male and female, riding in a Jeep together.

"Yeah, really soon." Estelle said.

"Margaret?" the male park ranger spoke up. "That's your name, isn't it? I'm sure you've run afoul of many a scary pedestrian. But out here, we have what you might call... Hmm... How should I put it? Actual danger!"

"Danger?" the female, Margaret, asked.

"Grizzlies that'll rip the top off your car!" the male park ranger seemed to exaggerate. "Bobcats, wolves, wolverines, which are something entirely different!"

The Reptar Wagon then crossed the road behind them, but Margaret saw it.

"And dragons?" Margaret asked in excitement with a laugh.

"Guys, I think we just past two adults!" Estelle called out.

"Stop!" Chuckie added to stop the wagon so they could get help from the grown-ups.

"I don't know how!" Tommy cried as he pushed the several buttons to try to stop them.

The Reptar Wagon was barreling closer and closer to the end of a cliff that was over water.

"Why didn't your father include a brake?!" Akito exclaimed.

"I hope you figure it out, 'cuz I didn't bring a bathing suit!" Lil cried out.

They all screamed and were near the end of the cliff, but Akito managed to find the brake and pulled it so they would be safe.

"Found it..." Akito breathed in relief.

"Any further and I would've needed a new pair of pants." Phil smiled to his friends.

However, Dil played with the brake after Akito let go of it and pushed them closer to the edge.

"Dil, no!" Tommy tried to stop his baby brother.

The Reptar Wagon then fell into the water and they were about to sink, but 'Aqua Reptar' was engaged and there were floats allowing them to flow through the water like a boat.

"Whew, at least this wagon also includes being a boat." Estelle sighed out of relief.

"So, we flowed through the water then..." Akito continued to narrate.
