BRIEF SYNOPSIS

Several months pass, and Sterling's father, Anthony, is still missing.

Sterling and Sai return to the Map Room, setting up a scenario with the action figures in the miniature city. Behind them, Darknel and Adaptor start fighting. The boys see an object fly out of the town, and a Rubicube falls to the floor. Sterling picks up something akin to a Rubik's Cube, but each face is a rare gemstone. He slides the squares to "solve it." After several turns, it clicks into position and triggers a multi-colored light beam. 

 

A moment later, the boys stand beside action figures. Darknel is gone. It takes them a few seconds to realize they are in the town square of the miniature city.


As they get their bearings, a mischievous monkey rushes in, snatches the Rubicube, and runs.  Sai gives chase, and two action figures go with him. They chase the monkey down several streets and through back alleys. Before long, he jumps through a window, shrinking in size, and Sai follows. The action figures catch up to the area where Sai and the monkey are headed but can't figure out where they went.

 

Sai slides down a multi-colored tube as if he were crossing the universe in the blink of an eye. He lands on a grassy plain with a giant forest ahead. The whole place has a surreal, mythical vibe. 

  

Darknel and his Bobble Headsmen follow them to retrieve the Rubicube. The monkey is Hanuman, one of several characters from mythology that Sai encounters. Along the way, he learns their stories and becomes Yoga. 

Kaliya, a fearsome multi-headed snake, jets out of the tall grass near the river, biting down on the Rubicube. Then Garuda, a massive bird with the golden body of a man, screeches from on high.

Yoga and Hanuman are startled as the two giant creatures fight. Kaliya escapes into the water as Garuda lands on shore. Garuda drops what remains of the Rubicube into pieces onto the ground.  

  

Garuda takes Yoga to a small village where he meets Charna, the daughter of prominent individuals in mythology, and they help find the missing parts to rebuild the Rubicube. Yoga and Charna defeat Darknel in an epic battle to hang on to the Rubicube.

 

Yoga brings Charna to the miniature city. They enter the town square without seeing anyone. After looking down a few side streets, Sterling comes racing around the corner, appearing scared. He yells, "There you are! You have the Cube!? Let's go! Hurrrrrrry!!!" Yoga notices a swarm of Monocronies chasing Sterling. He quickly maneuvers the Rubicube, and a beam of light zaps all three kids into the Map Room, their regular size. 

  

Sterling leans over, hands on knees, to catch his breath. "My dad! I found my dad – Darknel is holding him captive – we gotta round up more action figures and go back to save him!"
