During the trip a lot of things happen, first they have to cross a river while being chased by a dog, they succeed but a few hours later Violet got killed by a bird. After that they come in another group’s warren, the strange thing about this is that all of the rabbits of that warren died except for one and they are invited to come and live there. Fiver gets another vision and sees that the warren is being controlled by humans and is very bad, they first don’t want to listen to Fiver but when Bigwig almost got killed by a trap near the warren they all leave quickly. They keep on moving and moving but while moving their motivation becomes worse and worse and they wished they’ve stayed in the warren.
