Matty and Kira have just left her village and entered the forest together. What they don't know is that danger is ahead of them and maybe deathly. They both run into obstacles with the forest. In the book it talks about both Matty and Kira having a gift to do things. Kira uses her gift to guide them through the forest and to see what is happening. Matty and Kira are really close to the center of the forest, but they have been attacked so badly by the forest that they can't go on. Both lay down to rest and are so weak that they have given up.
