The Spirit of the Tao #4
In *The Spirit of the Tao #4* (1998), Jasmine and Lance confront the shocking truth behind their sudden dragon abilities, with Jasmine fleeing in panic after accidentally hurling a trolley car into the air. Lance steps in to save the day, using his emerging powers to stop the vehicle and protect its passengers.
