Jake and the rest of his crew were following the footprints left by Izzy's boots until they reached the bushes.

"They stop right here. That doesn't make any sense!" Jake exclaimed, kicking at the bushes in aggravation.

"Woah, Jake, hold on. We just need to look for more clues." Cubby put a comforting hand on Jake's shoulder.

"Like what?" Jake asked hopelessly.

"Like a...note in a bottle!" Skully yelled.

He swooped down and grabbed the neck of the bottle before dropping it at Jake's feet. Jake held it upside down until the note fell out. He unfolded it and silently read it to himself.

"We need to go! Now!" He jumped up and started running.

"Slow down!" Cubby called. "What's wrong?"

Jake stopped, turned around, and took a deep breath, "Captain Hook has kidnapped Izzy and has her under a sleeping potion! And it can only be broken by true love's kiss, but it has to be before the moon is high in the sky or it will be permanent! Izzy will be asleep forever unless I get there in time!"

Jake slapped his free hand over his mouth and his face turned as red as his bandana in embarrassment.

Cubby looked at him with a confused look on his face. "What do you mean, 'unless I get there in time?' Aren't we going save Izzy as a team?"

Jake glanced at the note, which was in his other hand, and a wave a realization hit Cubby. "I think I get it now! You like Izzy, don't you?"

Jake nodded shamefully.

"That's nothing to be ashamed about. We've been waiting for you to develop a crush on someone and we were hoping it would be Izzy," stated Skully.

"Ya, I'm with Marina.." began Cubby.

"And I'm with Princess Winger!" Skully interjected.

"So, you guys don't think it's weird? I mean, what if she doesn't like me back?" Jake asked worriedly.

"You'll never know if you don't find out!" Cubby advised. "We'll finish setting up for the party for when you and Izzy come back, and you go save Izzy!"

Jake nodded in agreement and watched his remaining crew member go in the direction of the party site.

Now I just need to find some more clues.
