Piper lands on the roof but accidentally clutches one of the sharpened defense darts and cuts her hand badly. Gee flies down to carry her away, but the two are netted by another glider and brought down to the ground. The bandits offer to make a deal. They will allow Gee to return to the train to get it to stop, but they will hold Piper hostage.

The chamelin grudgingly agrees and flies off while bandits surround Piper with crossbows. Her rage and despair rise to the surface, and her magic unexpectedly makes the crossbows explode. The bandits are terrified and on the verge of killing Piper when Gee returns. Taking them by surprise, he is able to dispatch the group and fly back to the train with Piper.

With yet another glider in pursuit, Gee tosses Piper onto the roof of the observation deck where Anna is waiting. Gee goes back to battle with the aircraft until he and the pilot have tumbled back onto the observation deck too. The bandit tries to attack Gee with a knife, but Anna and Piper pin his arms. He shakes Piper off and slashes Anna’s arm from shoulder to elbow before being thrown off the train by Gee.
