Grief and despair begin to creep on the World Travelers since they still haven't returned to New York City. Suddenly, a gigantic storm hits that throws Goliath and the rest overboard. As the skiff mysteriously sinks to the bottom of the sea, Goliath suddenly comes to the realization that they've finally arrived home . . . but not home.

Even though they finally arrived on Manhattan Island, they discover that 40 years have passed since Goliath, Elisa, and Bronx left . . . and since then, Brooklyn and the Manhattan Clan have been fighting a truly evil Xanatos . . . who now appears to have finally succeeded his ultimate goal of immortality and power.

It appears that only the Phoenix Gate, the last talisman from Avalon Goliath has, can save them now . . . but can it?
