Beatrice was screaming at the top of her lungs for help as the roots of the tree slowly grew around her. She needed to get out of there but there was no way out, the roots were too strong. She began to cry knowing her death was inevitable.
"WIRT PLEASE"
Meanwhile Wirt (the real Wirt) was thinking of what to do. But then he heard a voice
"Hey Wirt."
"Greg!" Wirt said running over to Greg standing outside the bedroom door. He was cautious this time he didn't want to fall like last time.
"Greg I missed you." Wirt said.
"I missed you too. But right now, you gotta fight the beast."
"What? But I don't want to leave you." Wirt said.
"You have to. Beatrice is in trouble."
"Beatrice?"
"Yeah the Beast's got her!" Greg said with concern.
Wirt looked at Greg. He had a choice. This Dream land with everything he's wanted, or save his friend but deal with the consequences of having to live in that horrible forest.
"How to I do this Greg." Wirt said gravely.
Greg reached to whisper in his ear and Wirt kneeled down so Greg could reach.
"Ok."
