It has been 3 days since Leyla met the Juliens. She had gotten along with Frost very well since they were the same age. She also learned that Crystal was already 15 years old. She also came to like their pet falcon.
What she liked about staying there was Zane's delicious cooking and the many interesting inventions Pixal was creating.
One day, Leyla was with Crystal and Frost at an area far from the tree. They were told to see if the Treehorns at that area are behaving.
They soon arrived at the area but they saw no Treehorns. As the two androids scanned the area, Leyla leaned on a tree and examined her sword.
It was an awesome sword. The tilt was gold with a leaf engraved on it. The blade was so shiny that Leyla sometimes use it as a mirror. She then remembered the day her dad gave it to her for her 11th birthday.

"Happy birthday, Leyla."
Leyla took the sword from her father and pulled it from its sheath.
"Awesome!" She exclaimed, a huge smile on her face. "I love it! Thanks, Daddy!"
"From now on, sweetie," her mother began. "Daddy and I will teach you how to handle a sword and protect yourself."
"Why would I need to learn how to protect myself?" Leyla asked. "We live at the edge of a forest. No one will see us."
Lloyd sighed. "You will know in time." He said before kneeling in front of Leyla. "We can't always be here to protect you, so you have to know how to fight."
"Promise us never to use your fighting skills to do bad things." Leyla's mother pleaded.
"I promise."

A tear rolled down Leyla's cheek. She missed her parents so much. She put the sword back in its sheath and waited for the two androids to come back.
When they didn't come back, she started to get worried. She heard wings flapping and she looked up to see a silver falcon perched on a branch.
"Hey," Leyla greeted, she really liked the falcon. "Have you seen Crystal and Frost?"
The falcon flapped its wings and started to fly away. Leyla followed it hesitantly.
"Hey! Where are you-"
Leyla accidentally bumped into something and she fell to the snowy ground. She looked up and saw Frost.
"Whoa! Sorry." Frost said as he helped Leyla up.
"It was clearly my fault." Leyla reassured her friend. "I've been waiting for you guys to come back. What took you so long?"
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Frost said formally. "But I was looking for my sister. I lost sight of her just a few minutes ago."
Just then, they heard a scream and a load roar. They quickly ran to where it came from and saw Crystal being surrounded by a dozen of Treehorns.
But there was something wrong about those Treehorns. Those Treehorns' eyes were purple instead of pale blue.
"Crystal!" Frost called.
Crystal turned and saw them. "Frost! Leyla! Run! Get away from here!" She shouted.
The Treehorns roared and started to attack the android girl. Crystal took out her sword and blocked the Treehorns' giant feet.
"What's wrong with those things?!" Leyla asked in panic. She always had a fear of angry Treehorns, so the sight before her almost scared her to death.
