You wait until you get a load of this lab,Wolfy.
It's the most marvelous,splendiferous, stupendous lab.
The most magnifi-super-frabjous lab.It's the most--
It's tree labs, bro.
Xandra, you ruined the surprise.
Wow.
So, this is where you make trees?
And so much more.
Come on, Wolfboy,let's go make some trees.
Well done, Sprout. Such a joyto have a Figwort in the class again.
You know, I always thought that treescame from seeds and acorns and such.
You've got a lot to learnabout how the world really works, human.
Don't worry about her.Here, let me show you.
See, we sprytes make some trees,
but the world needs lotsand lots of trees.
The clever thingscan also make themselves.
What happens now?
Now we wait.
For how long?
Ten years, give or take.Isn't it exciting?
Look who it is.
Everyone, please welcome Flora Figwort.
An excellent student in her day,and now a qualified forest spryte.
Keep practicingand you could be like Flora one day.
Hey, that's my sister.
Flora! Flora! Flora! Flora! Flora!
Flora! Flora!
Hi.
Professor. There's something strangegoing on in our wood.
We could really use a hand.
Could I getsome volunteer sprytelings to help?
By all means.
Would anyone like to volunteer?
Me! Me, me, me. Right here! Me! Hello!
-Me! Right here!-Anyone else?
-Anyone at all. Xandra?-Me! Hello!
Sure, Flora. But can I bring Sprout?
Fine.
Hooray! Can I bring Wolfboy?
Fine.
Cool. Another portal.
Here we are. Welcome to my wood.
It's usually a much happier place.
What's making the trees so sick?
I don't know, Sprout. I've never seenanything like it before. Poor things.
There's something not rightabout this fog.
What could be causing it?
Maybe humans.
Humans do have a lot to answer for.
I mean, they chop down our treesfaster than we can make them.
But this is different.
Pardon me, madam. How are you holding up?
She's in pretty bad shape.
I'm gonna see if I can help her.
It's getting pretty hard to seein this fog. And it's getting dark too.
Why don't you sit tight for a second,and I'll be right back.
You don't think…
You don't think it's possiblethat there are disarrays in these woods,
do you, Xandra?
Disarrays? I shouldn't think so, Sprout.
What are disaroos?
It's "disarrays."
Disarrays are the most horrible,terrible, dark, scary creatures
in the whole entire universe.
I don't like to talk about them.
I'm--
Around every corner,
the disarrays lurk and seek to destroythe sprytes' noble work.
Some slither, some swim,some float and some fly.
But beware of any creaturewith the glowing eye.
They creep and they crawl,bringing darkness and woe.
We are the sprytes, and they are our foe.
Disarrays are pure chaos.
Agents of destruction.
Every single thing we sprytes create,disarrays destroy.
I wish there was one here right now.I'd show 'em who's boss.
Hey, Xandra? If Sprout's over there,whose shadow is that?
Sprout! Xandra! Look out!
Disarrays!
That's where the fog came from.
Those creeps are fogging upthe whole wood.
No wonder these trees are sick.
What do we do?
We fight.
No, we run.
Come on. Back to the portal.
This way.
Stop. Stop.
We're just going in circles.
Did we lose Flora?
-Flora! Flora!-Sprout. It's going to be okay.
But what if the disarrays come back?
They could be right behind us.
They could be anywhere.
Why did I volunteer for this?Mother warned me about being brave.
"Always listen to Mother."That's what Mother always says.
Sprout, you've got a little something--
Get 'em off, get 'em off, get 'em off!
Stay still, Sprout.
It's not the fog that's hurting the trees.It's these slugs.
That's why those creepsare fogging up the place.
To hide what their gross little slug chumsare up to.
So if we clear the fog…
We can start kicking some slug butt.
Yeah!
But how do we get rid of the fog?
I think I know just the way.
It's perfect.
It's a hunk of junk.
It's not junk.
All we need is a bit of imagination.
And some tape.
What's tape?
Here. Give me a hand.
Well, it's still junk.
But I guess you've made it your own.
Ready? Go.
It's actually working?
It's actually working!
All right, let's do this.
Sprout! Sprout!
Flora? Flora!
Sprout! Thank goodnessyou're okay. I was so worried.
We were searching for you everywhere,but the fog--
Wait. What happened to the fog?
I cleared it away.
Wolfboy and Xandra, they helped.
You cleared it away? How?
We found this weird human contraption.
Over there, in the woods.
And once the fog was gone,the slugs were easy.
-The slugs?-Rotter slugs.
Pesky little disarrays.
But pretty easy to deal withif you can see 'em.
I've never seen different typesof disarray work together like that.
It looks likeyou three have saved our wood.
Oh, no.
The poor old thing didn't make it.
Hey, Sprout, look.
Into the dirt with you.
Maybe we can come back and visit?
Sure thing, Sprout.
Okay, Sprout. Ready? One.
One.
You're supposed to say "two."
Three.
-Two!-Sprout, you're playing wrong.
But it's fun.
Five.
Crumpet!
Oh, my twigs and leaves!They're playing Guardians and Disarrays.
Disarrays?
Not real ones. It's just a silly game.
Cool! Do you wanna go play?
No way. I'm reading all aboutthe fifth battle of Dryades.
And I'm getting to the good bit.
Who's Dryades?
Dryades is the name for the portal tree.
You know, the one in the middleof the atrium. Kind of hard to miss.
Its roots runthroughout the whole factory,
and it connects all the labsto the surface.
That's what that is. That's awesome.
Now, if you don't mind,go play with Sprout or something.
What's wrong, Sprout?
They won't let me play.
What? We'll see about that.Come on, Sprout.
Wait! Wolfboy! Wolfboy!
I told you it's dorms against dorms.
And your dorm isn't here. So bye-bye.
I'm in Sprout's dorm.We'll play as a team.
You need five to make a team.
Well, then we'll all play.
Hooray!
What are you doing?
We can't play.
You don't even know what this game is.And Sprout…
Well, I love Sprout,but we don't stand a chance.
We'll lose.
I don't know. I'm pretty good at games.
I'm sure I'll pick it up.And besides, it'll be fun.
Come on.
Didn't you hear me? We'll lose.
Xandra, come play.
Sorry, Sprout.You need your whole dorm to play.
It's a shame Xandra's sucha scaredy-spryte.
Scaredy-spryte?
Right. Let's do this now.
Yeah!
Okay, the rules are simple.
We're the disarrays.We gotta get to that rock.
And they're the guardians,so they have to stop us.
Then next round, we switch sides. Get it?
-Got it.-Good.
Guardians!
Disarrays!
Go!
Oh, yeah.And if you get orbed, you're out.
Orbed? What do you mean, "orbed"?
Sprout, keep up!
Wolfboy, move!
Come on. I can't believe you guys.
I hate to admit it, Xandra,but you were right.
Maybe you shouldn't have played.
Come on. Now we're the guardians.
You'll be great at this bit, Xandra.
Hey, you better pull your socks up, human.Sprout needs us to win.
Guardians and Disarrays.I remember this game.
Guardians.
Disarrays.
Go!
Yes! In your shiny face!
Okay, we're disarrays again.
Blip, you go left. Oneira, take the right.I'll head straight for the rock and--
Wait, wait, wait.
Am I the squiggly wormor the shivering snake?
That's not a snake.
It's clearly a lightning bolt.
I don't know. It looks like a snake to me.
There's no snakes! Forget snakes!
Hey, whoa, Xandra. Take it easy.It's just a bit of fun.
You think losing is fun?
We have to win. For Sprout's sake.
Really? For Sprout's sake?
Guardians.
Disarrays.
Sprout!
Remember, throw some orbs or something.
Go!
Orbs coming right up.
Oh, my… Never mind. Wolfboy, you--
Don't worry, Xandra.It's all in the wrist.
Hey, you two.
You have to admit it is pretty funnyhow bad you all are.
Also…
Hey, laughlings.You think this is some sort of game?
Yes.
Awesome! Amazing! Let's go!
Guardians.
Disarrays.
Go!
Slide right, slide right!
No, your other right. No, the other way!
No, no, no!
Xandra, I think I might havefractured my aura.
Yeah, me too.
And what about you? Are you injured too?
I suppose I'm gonna haveto win this thing on my own.
You know, I never had many friendsbefore I came here,
so nobody knows this better than I do.
Winning's not much funif you're on your own.
Look, they're kissing.
Hey, Sprout. I didn't thinkyou'd be any good, but I was wrong.
You're the best player… on our team.
Why, thank you.
Hey, Xandra,you could always join our dorm.
Then you might actuallystand a chance of winning.
Hey, Tali,
I'd rather lose a million gameswith Sprout than win one point with you.
-Come on, Wolfboy.-But we're down to three players.
Don't we forfeit?
No way. We're doing this for Sprout.
Yeah, for Sprout.
Go, go, go, go, go!
Guardians.
Disarrays.
Go!
Xandra!
Orbs on your left.
Wow, good shot.
Xandra!
Once again, I win the game.Nobody can beat--
Tali's out.
And Sprout's still in!
Run, Sprout, run!
Run the other way!
Whoopsie-doo.
Sprout.
Yes!
Yeah! You did it! Yeah!
Yeah! All right! Yeah!
You did it!
Sprout! Sprout! Sprout!
Sprout! Sprout! Sprout! Sprout!
Why is everyone cheering?
We won. By a lot.You only scored one point.
Fun though.
Sprout! Sprout! Sprout!
