*gasps*
<we might see eight eyes? I dare not think of that>
*Gets tight up behind Podarge and follows towards the back door*

<--- Podarge

*thoughtfully* Well, that was in the other house, the evil one. But as far as I know, we didn't kill the giant spider back then.
*opens the door*
*smiles* Well, a little bit overgrown, but it's still there.
*points* Carrots, beans, cabbage, whatever you want. And over there, some berry bushes. And there I have my herbs. And the big apple tree also still exists! *smiles widely*

<--- Harriet

*beams*
<All that food, yummy>
*doesn't feel scared now, just hungry*
I'm going to get some apples, Podarge.
*runs towards the big tree*
*trips*
Ooow!

<--- Podarge

*alarmed* What happened? Careful, lady Harriet, the tree's roots are spreading everywhere! Are you okay?

<--- Harriet

*shakes head*
I don't know what happened, Podarge.
*tries to stand*
Help, the tree roots have hold of my ankle, I can't get free
*starts to cry*

<--- Podarge

Don't worry, just a moment. *bends down* Just relax, okay? *pushes and pulls the roots as good as she can*
Now! Pull! Out!

<--- Harriet

*pulls at just the right moment*
*whosh*
I'm free! Thank you so much Podarge, I would never have escaped the roots clutches without your help.
*looks down*
We'd better get out of here quickly. Look, the roots are still speading.
*points down*

<--- Podarge

*puzzled* They've never done that before!
*looks up at the tree* What are you doing? *suddenly feels grabbed and lifted*
*screams in shock*

<~~~ Flower

*finally finishes humming for the girl*
*feels exhausted*

<--- Lina

*fast asleep*

<~~~ Flower

*collects some new power from the old grumpy tree next to the evil house*
*abruptly lifts her head and listens*
*hears something strange in the distance*
*whistles and disappears*

*appears behind Podarge's house*
*floats in mid-air, invisible, and watches*

<--- Harriet

Podarge, where are you?
*looks round*
I thought I heard you scream but I don't see you.
*feels worried*

<--- Podarge

Above you! *tries to escape the roots that grabbed her* This is damn high!

<~~~ Flower

*watches, very amused*
*wonders why the apple tree is that active all of a sudden*

<--- Harriet

*looks up*
Oh, Podarge, I see you.
*reaches up, tries to grab Podarge's ankle*
I can't reach you.
*jumps up*
No, it's no good, you're too high.
<what can I do?>
Podarge, hold on. I will have to find someone or something help.
*runs back to the house*
