It was nighttime, and everybody was asleep, except TB and GB who were studying the journals, and Foldy, who was just walking home, slowly and hesitantly, from seeing Marker. And of course, Evil Leafy was put and about as well.

Stapy stared worriedly out the window. It was dark out now. There were murderers in the city. Foldy still wasn't back.

"Maybe she found somebody else to stay with for the night," he told himself reassuringly. "She said she wouldn't come back or something..."

Meanwhile, not far above her, a green leaf flickers red, and reaches down, pulling her up.

Leafy holds Foldy above her, the water damaging Foldy.

She headed back towards the forest. She would sleep in a better tree, one with more room.
