Stevie Scott and Maisie Wu who, in 'Moon Rabbit', helped the Jade Emperor retrieve the Blue Dragon's magical red pearl and golden staff after they were stolen by the mischievous Monkey King, now older, return to ancient China after Maisie gets kidnapped out of revenge by the monkey. Stevie and his high school friends must embark on a terrifying journey to rescue her. And how will they undo the curse of the Jade Snake?
