They soon arrived at their destination. There were trees and bushes bearing the usual fruits and berries they normally came here to eat, a few had nothing on them but leaves. They proceeded into the forest, normally they never went any deeper in, because there was never any need to, all the food they could ever want was right there. In Vincent's mind, all he figured they were going to find was just a seemingly endless forest of plain, ordinary, fruits and berries, but he had his fingers crossed.
Figuring "Hey if Desarae found a rare candy that made her like that, anything is possible." Desarae was too busy fantasizing about finding a special fruit or berry that would make her larger to think about the odds. She, like Vincent, figured
"If there was a rare candy that did this, there could also be a fruit that would do the same somewhere in this woods.” They searched for hours, finding new fruits and berries, but none of them did anything, except taste different. When they had stopped to rest they had all but given up.

"What is it?" Vincent asked. He walked over to her, and she moved the bushes aside, revealing a hidden cave. "Wow good eye Desarae."
"Thanks" she responded, and they both went inside. It wasn't long before they saw a light up ahead. When they emerged from the cave, they were in another forest. "I have a good feeling about this place." Desarae thought to herself, Vincent was thinking the same thing.
Upon walking into this forest, they noticed it looked the same, except for the oddly colored fruits. There were a few different ones to pick from. There were bushes full of lime-green berries, the trees had these delicious looking pink fruits in them and there was one large, pale-orange, melon that could be seen.
