Isla Sorna Stories: Rebirth

The raptor tilted his head to the side as the Ceratosaur spoke. "That's unfortunate, but I haven't come here to attack you, for I have no pack to listen to. I was just looking for a place to rest, away from the prying eyes of bigger predators....like yourself." Blaze said, taking some steps back when the other dinosaur got up, he wasn't really looking forward for a fight even though the bigger dinosaur was already wounded. "So why don't you go rest and let your wounds heal instead of bothering with somebody like me, who will probably leave you with even worse wounds." He suggested, already backing away, back to the cave just in case.

"Leave then I am in no condition to fight" Sand Claw growled laying back down...

[o 055 o]

The raptor nodded slightly, turning around and heading back to the cave, leaving the ceratosaurus to rest. "Well, that was interesting." He told himself, entering the cave and laying down in the middle. "I wonder what will happen to him." He kept talking to himself for a while, eventually falling asleep in the cool and comfortable shelter.

Bias continued to drift down the river, the large crocodile on patrol of his territory. He could smell blood coming from up river, where the Spinosaurs were... and it was Deinosuchus blood... something had occured there, but he wasn't going to investigate it...

Monozu let out a low growl to Blackside, warning her to let go, or else. The female T-rex, her mind locked into playful mode, ignored the growl, and gently tugged on the piece of meat. This isn't going to get anywhere at this pace... I guess I have no other choice... Monozu thought as he began to tug on the stringy flesh, to try and yank it out of Blackside's mouth. Blackside also tugged hard on her end, thus beginning a tug-o-war over this one, durable, piece of meat...

After a short nap, the young velociraptor woke up, looking around his shelter for anything out of place, like a giant mouth trying to get him or something like that. He was relieved when he found none, life alone was hard for a velociraptor, his kind was meant to live in packs not divided, but he didn't had a good relationship with his past pack, so he had to leave. Standing up, the dinosaur slowly stretched, shaking off the sleep from his body along with some sand and a crab that had taken its place on top of him.

Once done with the cleaning, he decided that drinking some water would be the best. But to get some water he'd need to leave the safety of the coast and step into the jungle, where dangers awaited for everybody. He sighed, realizing it would be his only choice. So there he went, to the jungle for some fresh water, he just hoped it wouldn't be his last trip.

Aircrest dropped down from one of the small trees that the gargantuan plant wrapped up with leafy tendrils and a few banches. He landed onto the undergrowth with a patter against the moist leaves, making a note to remember this part of the dense jungle. Despite the view the raptor had high above in the tree top, he couldnt see far past the closely packed bunches of leaves. This region hid many wonders, of that he was sure; just as how he was sure he'd find them...

Redtooth emerged from the trees, finished with his patrol. Looking around, he hissed, "Where'd Thrasher go?"

[o 055 o]

Blaze kept walking further into the island, nervously looking around as he did, the faint shrieks of pterosaurs echoed in the distance along with an infinity more different sounds from every direction. The raptor wasn't used to being deep into the island, he mostly staid at the beach where he could actually see others instead of the narrow paths the trees formed in the jungle. "Alright Blaze, calm down, calm down." He hissed to himself, looking back and forth as he tried to find a stream of water.

The bushes were stubborn to part as the green and black raptor made his way across the forest floor. They were as much of an obstacle to the occasional creature scurrying through the vegetation, from compies to other small, speedy critters that Aircrest couldnt get a good look at. As he pushed on, he saw a dark shape not too far ahead, its form obscured by the dense growth. It caught his interest and cautiously, the raptor approached. He came to a stop not too long after in front of large boulder that was covered with moss and its base was hidden by the thicket of plants. There were a few bare spots not covered with lichen, a dark brown in color with a hint of black and Earthy red smears. Looking around the area, Aircrest could see a few more of the rocks scattered about. "Maybe there was a small rockface nearby where they broke off and tumbled down into the jungle..." Aircrest thought. It would explain why he couldnt see the cliffside from the giant tree; it was hidden away by the canopy. Intrigued by the notion, the black striped raptor jumped onto the boulder and kicked off from it into the branchhes weaving overhead. Walking on the ground was too difficult here, so he would stick to the trees as he went about his search.

Razorjaw walked on,growing ever more cautious as he neared the vicinity of the dead tenontosaurus,then he spotted the reason he had felt so on edge,a juvenile tyrannosaurus was feasting on the kill.

Razorjaw thought for a moment about muscling in on the kill but decided to play it safe and reveal himself in a submissive stance hoping to be tolerated and get a share in on the kill after the tyrannosaur had finished.

[o 055 o]

After some more minutes of walking with the heart about to come out of his mouth due to his nervousness, Blaze was able to find a little stream of water that broke down from a bigger pond nearby. He slowly leaned in, drinking a bit of water all the while watching for any possible threats. None so far, good. He could see several Compies drinking as well but he didn't pay attention to them, he knew they were not dangerous for him, although they could be a good alert signal in case something approached the area.

[UndeadRaptor]

Valu had remained on the branch, almost ready to fall asleep when something pecked the raptor's head. She opened her eyes and saw a bird infront of her, and snapped her jaws at the avian animal whilst growling.

Eradicus lumbered around his territory for a bit, before heading back to where he would rest...

[Hopeflower]

Steeltalon let out an almost inaudible sigh and turned to lick her scratches. The fight had brought back memories she'd rather keep buried. Memories of the fight that had resulted in the deaths of not only her parents, but her older brother and grandparents too. The old scar on her left flank seemed to twinge as the dam in her mind broke and memories flooded through her. Her father's dying gasp; her mother's striek of agony. The pain as a sickle-shaped claw tore through her side. Dragging herself away from those jewel-blue eyes as darkness crowded her vision. A terrible, shrieking victory cry....

[TyrannosaurusRules!]

After the raptor left Sand Claw didn't feel any different about raptors. Sand Claw shifts his weight to a more comfortable position for his wounds. Groaning Sand Claw lays his head down and ponders, bored...

[TyrannoTitan]

By now, Darkness was back at the cave, resting lazily on his perch, mentally and physically exhausted...

"Aw...damn it" Aircrest thought just as he landed on a branch, his amber eyes spotting a large, jagged crevasse just a few yards ahead. One side of the gap was higher than the other, possibly due to an Earthquake in the past. The boulders were probably broken off from higher land from the event also. Thick vines grew over the edges and trailed down the rock walls, descending into the dark chasm. Not even the closest branches and the strongest jump the raptor could muster could've gotten him to the other side. Aircrest began to contemplate possible ways to cross the abyss. "Maybe I can head along it...it might get smaller as I go-" He thought, when the low, savage snarls reached his ears. Instinctively, he hunkered down and took refuge among the leaves. "Coward" He criticized himself. His train of thought was broken when two forms burst out from the undergrowth on the other side, two raptors. One had a dark red hide and the other had dull brown and white scales. Both had deep, bleeding slashes and bite wounds. They were just about exhausted when they came to the crevasse and their red gazes went blank at once when they saw the drop. They dropped to the ground, side by side to share their fate with mutual hopelessness. The green and black raptor could only stare as he saw other raptors emerge from the brush, malicious intent etched on their faces and glinted in their eyes. Their bodies were lean, slender, beyond anything he had seen from an ordinary raptor...and they all had a set of quills on their heads. "The others the elder was talking about...?" He wondered, but dismissed the thought. The rusty red elder would have found his colleagues by now if they were so near his home...so why did these creatures have quills?

They circled the two raptors, the wounded duo clasping their eyes shut as the four quilled dromeosaurs made their way around them. Their lips were parted into twisted grins, blood stained teeth and gums on full display. Aircrest's body was stiff as he watched the scene play out. The low grunts, hisses and growls the the quilled ones made as they scrutinizedd the fallen reached his ears and filled him with dread. Split seconds later, they were upon their victims, completely silent as they attacked. The only noises were the tearing of flesh and the cries of agony from the two raptors. Aircrest stared wide eyed as from out of the mound of raptors came crimson pools. The cries had stopped as quickly as they began, but the squelching remained as the quilled ones clawed at the bodies. The green and black raptor began to quiver as he watched the four creatures rise up from their mutilated victims with red claws,the flesh of the two raptors torn and shredded to the bone. Blood slowly poured out from punctured veins. As two raptors started to head back into the vegetation, the other two took the liberty of dragging the raptors to the edge of the chasm and then flinging their bloodied forms down into it. Aircrest managed to hear the faint sound of snapping vines as they fell into oblivion. Those two raptors then followed the others, grunting and hooting amongst themselves.

The green raptor remained on the branch, silent except for the shaky breaths that he took.

[The Kingpin]

Crusher suddenly craned his neck, eyeing the newcomer, food still in his jaws. a Daspletosaur. it wasn't much bigger than himself. but right now Crusher was too bothered with eating and leaving to worry about fighting for his meal. he knew that soon it wouldn't matter who owned the kill if there was a scrap over it. grunting, the Rex continued to dig into the kill, ignoring the newcomer, worrying only about satisfying his hunger...

[Galaxia]

The tyrannosaur didn't seem to all too concerned about Razorjaw,thinking about it for a moment he quickly darted his head in and tore a strip of meat from the Tenontosaurus carcass.He also noticed the rex seemed intent on leaving the moment it's hunger was satisfied which seemed strange as this carcass would have some meat on it for some time even at the hands of the quickest eater.

This didn't concern Razorjaw too much,the sooner the rex left the sooner he would have the kill all to himself but this also worried him at what exactly would make the rex want to leave is such a hurry....

[o 055 o]

After being done with drinking water, Blaze turned around and left the stream, mentally telling himself to come later for more water. The young raptor looked around as he walked, a little less nervous now of the sounds that echoed through the jungle. The dense vegetation offered some difficulties for the small dinosaur although it wasn't much, just a mild discomfort when he walked. 5 minutes of walking later, Blaze could see a small opening in the forest, leading up to a meadow, which for the most part seemed deserted. "What a beautiful place." He hissed to himself, looking at the grass and flowers and the way they were distributed.

He liked how the trees made it hard for any big predator to get in this place due to their formation, they were thick and close to each other, making it almost impossible for them to pass. "Well, I might just make this my home." He hissed, spotting a fallen log nearby, the inside was hollow and dry, perfect to protect him from the weather. He smiled and walked up to the log, getting inside and laying down to rest.

[The Kingpin]

as Crusher gulped down the last mouthful, he leaned over the leg, eating through the base of it to separate it from the carcass, before lifting it, taking it with him, his strides rushed...

No sooner had Crusher started running than a large shadow loomed over Razorjaw, the large, threatening silhouette of a large Allosaur seeming to block out the sunlight that reached Razorjaw in the fading afternoon...
