Sophie decides to take Otto west to Kinshasa, believing that it will be the first place the UN secures. The morning after Sophie finds the electric fence down, she grabs Otto, waking Songololo. She takes both bonobos but feels guilty about leaving the others behind. Sophie moves through the gate and does not see anyone in the yard. She makes it to the front of the building but stops when she hears rustling behind her and turns to see Anastasia following her. Songololo runs to her mother and climbs onto her back. Sophie continues down the driveway and hears more rustling. Now five bonobos are on the sanctuary lawn, including Mushie, Banalia, and Ikwa. Afraid that the apes will attract the soldiers’ attention, Sophie runs down the driveway and calls to the apes when they do not follow her. The soldiers hear the commotion, and one points a rifle out of a window and shoots Banalia, killing her instantly. The bonobos scatter into the jungle, as does Sophie. When they all finally stop running, Sophie does not hear anyone following them. The apes begin to forage, and Sophie opens papayas for them.
