The Silver Forest The Sparticle Mystery

-We're on a race bring back the adults.

-I don't want them back.

Bringing the adults back will ruin the chances

of a safer, more equal world.

So this sword will unlock the Quantum Nexus?

I think that's what the sketch means.

If you realign that particular dimension, you'll wipe out

the entire world of children.

Reese, get her!

No, you can't. We're all going to die!

The Quantum Nexus isn't here, it's at the Silver Forest.

I know what we're looking for.

-Holly's here, she's heard everything.

-Serena, let's go!

I'm an undercover double agent.

Holly's the only one who knows what to look for in the Silver Forest.

If I catch up with her, I can lay a trail for you.

Are you sure the symbol at the rock is the one on the sword?

How many times, Serena? Yes, I'm sure.

-Feels like you're calling me a liar.

-Course I'm not.

The colours lit up the letters and symbols, spelling out

"Silver Forest" and this one.

Well, we're in the Silver Forest. So what now?

Back at the rocks, you said you knew what you were looking for.

I thought I did, but now we're here...

-Where do we start?

-Exactly.

The sword, it's alive! Serena.

-Holly, stop mucking around.

-I'm not. It's pulling me somewhere.

Hey, watch out! Can you have your nervous breakdown sometime else?

Holly? What is it?

It's a rock covered in silvery moss.

The sword was pulled to it like a magnet.

We must be in the right place.

Cover it up, Serena.

Serena, this thing's all over the place.

Here's another one of these rocks.

We've got ourselves some sort of trail.

Just cover them up, the Sparticles will never find them.

Lucky for us, we have the sword.

And unlucky for the Sparticles. Come on.

Stop!

Chi-Chi.

-Ernesto.

-You look fantastic.

-You too.

I always knew you were a guerrilla at heart.

I will never forget your courage in the first battle.

When we sprung those kids from that posh school

where you were deputy head?

My memory's been shot away by post traumatic stress.

How did you get here, Ernesto?

I have my ways and means.

Well, you don't think it took long to get directions here from that

drippy druid, do you?

Back-up is on the way, but for now, we must unite. Chi-Chi?

-Of course.

-To victory, then!

-I say we divide and conquer.

Ah, yes. I take the left flank you the right,

that was the Bolivian way.

I mean, with your experience in covert operations

and psyops, you can neutralise the Sparticles once they arrive.

Your friend, is she in the military too?

That's a good idea, Serena.

You stay here, Ern, and slow down the Sparts,

and we'll hunt down the Quantum Nexus. Let's go.

Chi-Chi.

-Take care.

-I know. It's a jungle out there.

Spread out and start looking for the first tennis ball. Hurry.

Callum, check out the Candycruiser boot for the sword.

What about you? You're nearest.

I am going to search for the tennis balls.

Watch out! You nearly had my hand off.

Yeah, well, if you were racing like the future of the world

depended on us, it wouldn't have happened.

Frankie, come with me. Tia and Reese,

-fan out and look for those balls.

-I'll help you make a new stick.

At least someone's still acting like a decent

member of the Sparticles.

BIRD'S WINGS FLAP

BIRDS SING

We've found nothing.

Your girlfriend, can we trust her?

Serena's not my girlfriend. But yeah, we can.

Your mate, Ernesto.

Hope he's enjoying life back at the rocks.

He betrayed me. I told him where we were heading in trust.

-I believe you.

-No, you don't. I'm here, aren't I?

Not with my tribe, the Sheriffs, but with yours.

That's because I know who my real friends are. Do you?

-Stuff you.

-Sadiq, stop being so angry at everyone.

Keep an eye on Callum, I need to talk to Jeffrey.

Why? You should be helping us look for the first tennis ball.

-Frankie, pipe down and do as I say.

-You're not my parent.

When we get Mum back, I'm going to tell on you. Meanie.

That bush just moved.

-Maybe it's a Green Man.

-What's one of them?

A Green Man is an ancient guardian and revealer of nature's mysteries.

Is this just another one of your stories?

No, some people really believe in them. If you look carefully,

you can see faces in the trunks and branches.

All right now? Let's join the others.

Boo.

Sadiq.

-Sorry about earlier, Jeff. You OK?

-Sure.

Jeff, what's your feeling about Callum?

He's an honourable Sheriff. And a friend.

What if Callum's like Serena and a double agent, just travelling with

us, infiltrating our tribe so he can make sure the world stays how it is?

-Because why?

-Because he's got the most to lose.

He might be the law now,

but he used to be the wrong side of it, remember?

Yeah, why would Callum want to give up on the new society?

-He's worked so hard for it.

-Hey. Blackberries?

Callum found the first clue!

It was by that bush you were standing next to.

What? I didn't see it.

If anyone's interested, it's this way.

BIRD'S WINGS FLAP

BIRD CALLS

Who are you?

I am an ancient guardian.

-Of whom?

-Mother Nature.

-Reese, you have been chosen to help us.

-Help? How?

The parents were removed for a reason.

They were destroying the planet.

Mother Nature made a great victory,

but now, unknown forces wish to restore things to the way they were.

HE CHOKES AND CLEARS THROAT

The Sparticles?

We want to find our families and bring them back home.

Ah, you sound unsure.

I've seen things. It's too dangerous to try

and realign the adult's dimension with ours.

We could realign the wrong one and wipe out life on Earth.

It is unwise to meddle with Mother Nature.

She will take care of the children in the world without adults.

Mother Nature is beautiful,

but she isn't a real person and she's not my mum.

< Reese, where are you? Reese?

You must use your powers to make sure the children have a safe

new future, wiped clean of the mistakes of the adults.

< Reese? Reese?

Join with us, Reese.

< Reese!

Over here.

Here's another one.

This way, Serena.

SHE CRIES OUT

I'm so sorry. I didn't know you were there.

-You're going to bleed to death.

-No, course I'm not.

It's not the femoral artery, and it's not too deep.

I just need to clean it. First-aid kit?

I left it in the Candycruiser.

I'll just bind it then, it'll be fine.

-But, Serena, the sword's filthy.

-Let's just keep going.

Let's look for water. There must be a river here somewhere.

We can't divert. We have to maintain our lead over the Sparticles,

and this injury's going to slow me down anyway.

I know I act like I don't care about anything, but I do.

I care about you.

You're the sister I never had, and the family I've always wanted.

Hey, come on, Holly. Don't you go soft on me.

Go on, lead the way. Just be careful what you do with that sword, right?

We'll cover this up first, we don't want the Sparticles

tracking our movements.

Maybe there are no more balls.

Of course there are. Serena's ahead of us.

We've just got to look harder.

Please, Sadiq I need to talk to you.

Reese, we've talked about this.

Dora told us to journey to the Quantum Nexus,

where we could unlock secrets beyond science.

She wouldn't have told us to do that if it was dangerous.

But it is dangerous. We've got to stop the quest now.

If we try to realign the dimensions and realign the wrong one,

-we'll all die.

-Reese, we're going to get to the Quantum Nexus first

and then we'll see what we find.

I bet there's something we don't know yet that'll make it safe,

make it all right.

This whole quest has been about finding something, learning,

guessing, solving. We've never had all the information.

I do.

No, you just think you do.

She's like a little termite eating the tribe up from the inside.

-Stop it!

-You can't tell me what to do, Tia.

Only Sadiq can give orders. He's the leader.

All right then, Leader, what are you going to do about her?

About the fact she refused to help us

translate the runes back at the Statue of Artos?

If we hadn't got her notebook, we wouldn't

-have even got to this forest.

-I didn't want us to come here.

Do you want to be gassed poisoned, killed?

Listen to her, Sadiq!

I wish someone would listen to me, that's the whole point.

You all think you know better than me, and you don't.

Reese, just because you have special powers,

-doesn't always make you right.

-Well said, Liam.

If I was tribe leader, I would have left Reese back at the statue

with Ernesto and Fizzy.

She made it move!

Under the bush!

It's the second clue. Reese found it.

Come on, Sparticles, we're all used to Reese's ways.

She'd never do anything to hurt us. Let's follow that path.

Reese.

I've always tried to...understand.

-Please don't push me away.

-So you won't call off the quest?

No. Never.

SHE GROANS

-Serena, your leg.

-It's all right, Holly.

But you look bad, Serena.

Are you sure about smashing up the Quantum Nexus?

Why are you saying this?

Most of the time, doing our own thing the way we want to,

being in charge is brilliant, the best ever.

But now, now I'm hurting and I just want someone to look after me.

Mum, Dad, Stepdad, Auntie, Nanna...

So you're one of the lucky ones with a great family.

For most of us, the adults disappearing

was the best thing that ever happened.

So you're happy with smashing up something that'll mean

millions of children never see their parents again?

Even though the adults are alive and want to be reunited with their kids?

Basically, yes. We're all growing up so fast.

One day, we'll have kids of our own.

But I want to be a surgeon, Holly. And there's no-one left to teach me.

Adults aren't just there to be parents, you know.

I can get you DVDs and books and a whole library if you want.

You're so smart, you can teach yourself.

-Serena, I can go on my own. If you can't...

-No way.

I've come this far, I'm not letting you take all the glory...

soul-sister.

I've found another stone.

I've found it, I've found it!

Good! That's the third ball. Come on, let's go.

SHE MAKES BIRD CALL

SHE MAKES BIRD CALL

BIRD CALL REPLIES

-Is that the Green Man?

-Yes.

My tribe won't listen to me.

There's nothing I can do to stop a disaster now.

-Wait, my little compadrio.

-Ernesto?

-What are you doing?

-The usual.

Capturing, hostage-taking, ransom-demanding,

anything to stop you Sparticles getting to the Quantum Nexus.

-You don't need to do all that.

-I don't?

No. I'm going to swap sides.

Bravo. The side of the rebellion. The side of the right.

Or the left, depending on which way you look at it.

We both want the same thing - to stop the Sparticles getting

to the Quantum Nexus, so let's work together.

Excellente. We must hatch a plan.

-I already have one.

-Do you?

-You follow the Sparticles.

Holly and Serena are ahead of them

and Serena is dropping tennis balls to make a trail for us to follow.

-Serena?

-She's a double agent.

Such expertise right under my nose! I had no idea!

Let's go. I'll work from the inside, you from the outside.

If we move the tennis balls,

the Sparticles will never catch up with Holly and Serena.

Let me get this straight, you're going to trick the Sparticles?

-You, Reese?

-I've got to, Ernesto. They'll thank me later.

I'm not scared of being unpopular.

The loneliness of command.

Over here.

-Where've you been?

-Just checking out some ferns.

But you don't want us to succeed, so why are you looking for clues?

-Leave it.

-I'm not 100% sure what I saw is really the truth.

Best wait till we get to the Quantum Nexus.

Like you said, Sadiq, I owe everyone an apology.

-I'm sorry.

-Oh, come on, that's it?

-Why would Reese lie?

Reese never lies. She's incapable of it.

-Tia!

-She was putting thoughts into his head.

Don't you think you're getting a bit paranoid?

No, no, I don't.

Just keep your distance, Reese.

-It's Reese, she's trying to kill us!

-No, I'm not.

It's Mother Nature, trying to save the planet for future generations.

What? Sadiq, seriously, I'm worried about her, man.

This isn't your tribe, Sheriff, butt out.

Maybe it was a Green Man. Has anyone thought about what happened

back at the Sparticle Project?

Yeah, we failed to bring back the adults. And?

Because of Reese!

What if she never wanted the adults back and she's been lying?

-You sound like Holly.

-What Reese did before was amazing.

She put her life on the line. When have you ever done that?

Stop this!

All this grief is tearing the tribe apart and, yeah,

-I know I'm also to blame for that.

-You've been the worst.

You're right, Frankie.

Sorry.

Guys, after all these months searching for...

racing to the Quantum Nexus, do we want to fall at the final hurdle?

Well?

We need to find the Quantum Nexus before Holly and Serena destroy it.

And we need to go forward as a strong team, in trust.

Tell them, Reese. What was I thinking?

You're not sure you can trust me any more.

The keys to the Spartivan. We'll come back for you,

if we make it.

We'll have to walk around there.

SERENA GROANS

-I need to rest.

-Are you OK?

It's my leg. I think I'm developing an infection.

-But you said it wasn't serious.

-It's not, but I couldn't clean it.

I told you we should have diverted for water.

But really you wanted to get ahead in the race.

-No, I didn't. Are you calling me a liar again?

-No.

Why did you stay back at the statue, if it wasn't to see the rune?

I mean, there were Sparticles everywhere.

-I had to defend Fizzy.

-What about me? Our pact?

Holly, why are we talking about what happened at the rock?

I don't think I can go on much further.

It's hard to think that the adults are within reach now,

but we'll never see them again, not once.

Maybe I've got it wrong.

I think you have, Holly. I think perhaps we both have.

You've been laying a trail.

For Sadiq, for the Sparticles.

You tricked me.

That's why you hung back at the statue.

You were on their side. A secret Sparticle from the beginning.

All those moments when I wasn't sure about you...

I just tried to ignore them.

How could I have been so stupid?

That's how you got that injury. You were trying to snatch the sword.

You made me believe in you.

You made me care.

My soul-sister is a spy.

-I do care.

-Don't lie. Stop lying.

You are one big walking lie and I hate you.

Serena? Serena?

Wake up. What do I do? Serena?

I'm going to follow the trail back to the Sparticles

and hope that they are on it. I'm going to get help!

I promise.

Quiet. The Sparticles are very close. They're right behind me.

-Serena's hurt.

-Serena the traitor.

-How do you...?

-Reese. She defected.

-Reese?

-Sshh.

We must help Serena. She's wounded and unconscious.

She can die a miserable death like a dog in the ditch, for all I care.

She is the enemy.

Oh, for goodness' sake, Ernest, Serena's really hurt.

I know that, Holly. But this wonderful world for children to

live in will also really come to an end if the Sparticles succeed.

We must keep going forward.

Serena has made her choice. We must make ours.

I'll make mine.

Argh!

Sadiq! Sadiq!

Quickly. Get me out of here.

-What are you doing?

-You're not going to help Serena,

and if I free you, you'll stop me going back for her.

-What about the race to the Quantum Nexus?

-It's still on.

-And what about me and you?

-You're not going anywhere, are you?

Yah! Yah!

I've see the Green Man, pushed it down a bank! It had three arms!

Calm down, Liam. Quiet, we think we can hear something.

BIRD'S WINGS FLAP

It's coming from in front of us.

No prison can hold Ernesto!

Holly? Ah, my Chi-Chi.

Oh.

Back-up.

Get me out of here, you meat-head.

Serena.

Talk to me, Serena. Can you hear me?

It's Holly. She knows.

She said she hated me.

I can't believe Holly would really hurt Serena.

Some people are ruthless enough to

stop at nothing to get what they want, man.

And Holly's one of those people.

And now Evil Holly is on her way to the Quantum Nexus.

In front of us!

Reese?

Let's go.

To the Quantum Nexus.

-We're on the same side?

-We'll never be on the same side.

We just want the same thing.

Now, are we going to destroy the Quantum Nexus or what?

Hello, girls.

Sometimes, you have to dine with the devil to taste

the fruits of victory.

We are the Freedom Four.

Whatever.

Wait. The Quantum Nexus is through there.

-I can feel it now.

-Now you're talking.

We've been following magnetic stones sticking out of the earth.

-The sword was kind of drawn to them.

-Do you know where we need to go?

Not without the sword. But before I fell, I caught sight of a tunnel.

Sadiq, go back that way a little.

Over there.

Seen it. Let's go!

I'll stay with Serena.

You're the best.

-It's here! There's something here!

-It's a rock face.

The sword pulled me this way, it must be on the ground.

Reese, you help me. Ern, you and Fizz clear the ivy.

-Jeepers creepers!

-Is that...a door?

Where's the 'andle?

-Faster!

-Wait!

The symbols, they say, "Below here is our secret."

This is it! The doorway to the Quantum Nexus!

We'd better get a wriggle on.

Open sesame.

Worth a try.

Let's go!

-They're coming, Reese!

-The sword opens the Porthole.

I've seen the sketches. The sword must fit onto something.

There's nothing here. The whole surface is smooth.

I don't know what to do.

Faster!

This must be the handle.

That's it, it's attached.

Quick. Twist it, turn it!

Everyone, now! Watch the blade.

Yes!

Ernest, you go first. Hurry! We'll be right behind you.

-Traitor!

-Don't go, Reese!

-Let's go!

-Not without Jeff.

-Or Serena.

-All right, Sadiq, you go on.

I'll collect Jeffrey, and if she's up to it, Serena.

See you at the Quantum Nexus, my man.

How do we bring back the adults?

You're with us now, Reese. You made your choice. So get moving.

Security system activated.

Get Reese!

I am too young and too handsome to die.

Reese, what have you done?

This thing's about to blast off.

-Holly, no!

-Please tell me this isn't happening.

Yee-har! To the Quantum Nexus!
