## Synopsis

### Part 1

Connor, Amaya and Ivan are in the library, where Ivan reads a comic about his favorite polar bear heroes. When Connor and Amaya recall some of their own heroics, Ivan feels sad since he hasn't been a hero that long yet and thus not many stories to tell. After Connor and Amaya leave, the librarian, having noticed Ivan's interest in polar bears, gives him another book to read. The book is about a place called Ice World. To his surprise, Ivan finds a key and a map hidden in the book. The map points out a location in the city where the key can unlock the gate to Ice World. Ivan decides to keep this information to himself and pay this Ice World a visit on his own so he too will have a story to tell.

That night, after the Power Heroes have all gone on patrol to look for villain activity, Ice Cub heads for the portal, which is hidden in a wall in the park. He is followed by PJ Robot, who was suspicious about Ice Cub's behavior in HQ. Ice Cub doesn't want to tell the others anything until he's had an adventure and hopefully got some new ice powers, so PJ Robot agrees to come with him.

As the portal is about to close, Night Ninja arrives and forces it back open. He plans to take over this new world, but first he has his Ninjalinos fetch some snow so they can have some fun pelting Luna Girl, Robot and Motsuki with snowballs. Elsewhere in the city, Owlette, Gekko, and Catboy feel the cold draft coming from the portal, and use the new Cat Racer and Owl-Glider to find out where this cold is coming from. They follow the trail to the portal. They enter Ice World and find tracks left by Ice Cub's Snowboard. Catboy fetches the Cat Racer to go after Ice Cub, but quickly finds out the car is not prepared to handle a snowy environment. They go back to HQ for better preparation.

Meanwhile, Ice Cub and PJ Robot are navigating Ice World, with PJ Robot taking pictures for Ice Cub's story. They come across a set of ice stairs, which Ice Cub is barely able to climb. In HQ, Catboy, Owlette and Gekko find out that PJ Robot has gone to Ice World with Ice Cub. They equip themselves with their Riding Armor and head back for Ice World.

### Part 2

As Gekko, Catboy and Owlette enter Ice World again, Ice Cub and PJ Robot are having a great time snowboarding through this new world. They come to the entrance of a tunnel called the Tunnel of Winds, which they manage to get through. On the side, they find and befriend a reindeer stuck under ice blocks, and free him, which earns them the animals’ trust.

Finally, Ice Cub spots what he came for; the cave of Ice Powers, and heads inside. In the cave he finds a polar bear statue holding a Crystal Icicle, but it is guarded by two other statues that begin to shoot freeze rays at Ice Cub as he approaches. Ice Cub attempts to snowboard past them, dodging the freeze rays, but one ray hits him and freezes him to the ground. PJ Robot tries to help, but gets frozen, too.

Elsewhere, Gekko, Owlette and Catboy navigate the ice stairway and the cave of winds, though it takes them more effort than Ice Cub. On the other side of the tunnel they run into the same reindeer Ice Cub encountered earlier, and take some time to cuddle with the animal. Then Catboy hears Ice Cub calling for help from within the cave. The PJ’s also head into the cave and find Ice Cub and PJ Robot. They try to rescue their friends, but get frozen by the guards, too.

Ice Cub, disappointed at how things went, admits he just wanted to have a great adventure of his own since his friends already did so many great things. The PJ’s however bring up the great things Ice Cub already did so far, and realize that they should have reminded Ice Cub about this earlier instead of just focusing on their own stories. Owlette fires a feather at the ice that Ice Cub is trapped in, cracking it .This weakens the ice enough for Ice Cub to break free. He manages to make his way to the crystal icicle and touches it, which causes his suit to glow for a moment. With his powers now given a boost, Ice Cub easily makes his way back to the PJ’s and frees them from their ice blocks.

After saying goodbye to their Reindeer friend, the five heroes leave Ice World. The portal closes and Ice Cub takes the key for future use. The PJ’s are surprised that this adventure didn’t feature any villains. Then Owlette gets hit by a snowball from the Ninjalinos. Unfortunately for Night Ninja, it was the last one, and he angrily chases his Ninjalinos for wasting it. The heroes then proceed to shout their victory cry.
