Messenger: Chapter 15 and 16

In Chapter fifteen, Matty and Kira left there old home and entered Forest. Matty did not tell Kira, but he felt worried. Forest seemed darker and less inviting. In the middle of the chapter, Lois Lowry switched and narrated what was happening in Village. Kira was right; the Villagers were starting to pile the logs high to form a wall. Leader used his gift and saw that they had started towards Village. Seer was relieved to here that they were traveling back. What Leader did not tell Seer was that he also saw that "Forest was shifting, thickening, moving and preparing to destroy them."
In chapter sixteen, Matty, Kira and Frolic continued there journey. The first day, Forest had injured Kira by poking her with vines which made her feet bleed. By the second day her feet were fine, but Forest was now attacking Matty. Forest covered the paths and burnt his arms with sap from vines. By the middle of the second day, Matty was tired, aching and in pain.
