Fishtooth went around a curve in the river, and saw the trees abruptly cease as the river continued out onto the game trail, where multiple herds of animals were eating and drinking from the river. Fishtooth raised her head above the water, and most of the animals bellowed and backed away from the river. Suddenly, a scent reached her nostrils. She looked to her left, and saw an Apatosaurus carcass lying on the ground.
She looked around nervously. Was it a trap? Perhaps Crusher, waiting to kill one of the last spinosaurs? She wasn't sure. She looked around, and was surprised to see multiple corpses across the game trail. It had to be a trap? Or maybe it was a distraction?
She waited for a moment, sniffing the air. Suddenly the scent of brachiosaurus wafted her way, from the direction of the Giga nest, but it was only for a moment. Thinking about it for a moment, she realized all these corpses were a distraction to keep larger predators away from the nest.
Well, Fishtooth wasn't complaining. She took a few bites out of the Apatosaurus, savoring the freshly killed meat, then left. It was no use spending too much time in Crusher's territory. She slid into the river again, and began to swim down the shallow, winding, slightly muddy river once more.
"Today you are You, and that is truer than true..."
