Greg's car stopped at the side of a small country road. On both sides, there was a thick, dark forest and the sound of trees swaying made echoed like a distant howl. Tony and Franky parked nearby. Michael and Paul got out of the car with them. Marina and Maddy also insisted that they would go with them as soon as they learned about the mysterious edict. To Greg's surprise, even his mother and Becky came with Tony. And their faces were serious, despite the paleness. His heart felt warm at once, seeing how many people had gathered at his first call.
Greg turned to the children, who were silent all the way, peering intensely into the forest thicket. Noticing his gaze, both got ready as if on cue and hurried out of the car. Their faces showed that they were also prepared for anything.
" Last time we were on the other side of this National park." - Tony said, looking around. - "Here everything looks like the real forest. Scary!"
