The last rays of sunlight were fading on the horizon when Alan , Vissia de Vissen's personal secretary , arrived in the Hawk Wood . Under the thick canopy of trees , the darkness grew deeper and deeper , but Vanillas had ordered Alan to drive with all the lights off so as not to be spotted . As he drove at high speed in the twilight , he did not see a fallen branch across the path and passed over it . The Jeep swerved, and from one of the many boxes piled in the back , flew a tin of processed cheese , which rolled to the foot of a large bush . Alan had noticed nothing and the Jeep vanished in a cloud of dust . Soon after , Shen arrived there , he had ventured into the undergrowth looking for something to eat while Colette was having fun under the small waterfall . Completely absorbed in his passion for botany , Shen hadn't noticed that he was moving further and further from his starting position , and the darkness had finally taken him by surprise . He immediately lit his flashlight , ready to turn around . The beam of light shone on a thick bush that appeared to be an aromatic plant . Shen , intrigued , walked over to pry a branch off , when .
Shen : What is this ?
He bent down to pick up the tin can .
Shen : Cheesy chews ?
He wiped off his glasses to make sure he read correctly . He slipped into his backpack and quickly set off again . When he found Colette , he proudly showed her the large selection of herbs and berries he had collected . He knew the name and properties of each one by heart . Colette looked at her harvest with tired eyes , then shyly took a berry with one eye and tasted it .
Colette : Yuck ! It's bitter !
Her friend encouraged her .
Shen : It's rich in vitamine C . Let's have a big serving of these for dinner , and we'll go to sleep with nice , full bellies .
Colette twisted her muzzle , skeptical . Shen then remembered the tin can he had found .
Shen : Well...there's also this .
Colette : A can of cheesy chews ? Where'd you get it ?!
Shen : I found it underneath a bush by the road...strange , right ?
Colette : This is a deception ! One of us is up to no good ! Well...maybe not you...
Shen : I thought you blame me...
Paulina and Vic meanwhile . Only Paulina had had a lot of fun running secretly from one end of the wood to the other . And Vic , still calm and serious . Together , they had immortalized their comrades confronted with the challenges of life in nature . Night was falling and they returned to the academy in four-wheelers .
Paulina : Look at this funny face Pamela's making ! And Willman ! He stubbed his toe in this through pictures one ! Ha ha ha ! This has been as really fun day !
She showed Vic some of her photos taken during the day . The eyes of her comrade turn to the screen of his device , then to his . Not the slightest laugh .
Paulina : I almost fell out of that tree and onto Morson ! Ha ha ha ha !
Vic : Very funny yeah...
Paulina : What about you ?
Vic : So as not to be seen , I crawled through the bushes..I have a few good holds ... and the leftovers are that !
Vic showed her his pictures in turn ... the ones that failed because of Paulina . Every time at the same moment he was going to take a picture , Paulina suddenly appears which blocks the view and spoils the best moments .
Paulina : Sorry...^^
They heard a very slight sound of a drop of water . The noise repeated over and over , more and more pounding . The windshield was speckled with raindrops the size of coins .
Paulina : Oh...it's rainning...
Then lightning tore the sky , immediately followed by the crash of thunder .
Vic : And stormy...
Often on Whale Island , the weather can change from moment to moment , and in the spring it is not easy to predict the sudden onset of heavy downpours . In an instant , the challenge turned , for the six teams , into a test of endurance much more trying than they had imagined .
