“Get away from the trees!” Sticky cried from inside the sweatshirt. “I think they want you out of the forest.”

And so Dave took the risk.

He stepped out of the forest.

Out of the shadows.

Into a bright, broad spotlight of sunshine.

He also, unfortunately, stepped smack-dab into a large, fresh pile of kneady-weedy donkey doo.

“Ewww!” Dave said, doing a little doo-doo dance away from the pile. “What’s that doing here?”

Sticky, however, didn’t give a sniff about a little donkey dung. The ravens were no longer chasing them (or bwaa-ha-cawing), but ahead of them was something odd.

Completely unexpected.

In a word, bizarre.

“Holy guacamole,” Sticky gasped. “What is that?”

“It’s not guacamole, that’s for sure,” Dave grumbled, still looking at his shoe.

“No,” Sticky said, pointing straight ahead, “that.”

Sticky was pointing to one of the mansion’s jutting walls.

It was expanding.

Pushing outward.

Growing, like a great black balloon.

And inside the balloon something was moving.

Something alive.
