A Ranger Lets Them In On The Secret
Julian’s attempt to escape the unknown plant was thwarted by a ranger, who was followed by two hovering helicopters. Julian was approached by the ranger, who informed him that they would need to leave immediately and that Julian was not meant to have witnessed what was occurring in the forest. The ranger’s comments and the presence of the helicopters left Julian baffled and worried.
He questioned what exactly was so special about this specific woodland that such a response was necessary. He also couldn’t get rid of his curiosity about what type of plant he and Spike had discovered that had raised such a red flag. Although he hoped the ranger would answer some of his questions, he was equally ready for the potential that he might not receive any answers at all.
