Racing through the forest, Gidget was suddenly snatched off the ground. She screamed at the top of her lungs as she was carried up into a tree. Her kidnapper was Max and his dragon. Helping her up onto Snowball's back, Max pointed out, "I know you don't want to talk but let me show you something."

"No, you're gonna get me off this thing now," Gidget demanded. Sighing heavily, Max looked down at Snowball with a hopeless look glistening in his eyes. "Snowball, down... gently please," he ordered the dragon in a firm yet calm voice. However, the Rabbu had other plans in mind as he suddenly shot straight into the sky.

Hanging on for dear life, both Max and Gidget were screaming very loudly at the top of their lungs. "Snowball! What are you doing?! This is not at all what I told you to do!" Max shouted. The Rabbu continued to climb higher and higher into the sky before suddenly spinning and diving towards the sea below. Hugging the other teenager, Gidget cried, "I'm sorry! Just make him stop!"

Hearing her, Snowball spread his wings open, stopping their rapid descent.

Realizing at that moment they were still alive, Max and Gidget looked around. Snowball was effortlessly gliding on the wind. They were up near the clouds. They were so close that Gidget could reach out and touch it with her hand. The wind played with her long white hair. Seeing that she was enjoying herself, Max silently thanked the gods.

They continued flying around, even after the sun had gone down and the stars had come out to play.
