"Its a b*tch" Aircrest growled, resting his head on the ground. "Ive slept so long yet Im still tired...its starting to make me sore" He said before taking a breath. "Sh*t, first your trying to keep those dear to you safe, then wham! A f*cking human stings you and puts you to sleep" He mumbled irritably, before his his head perked up at a new noise approaching. Heavy breathing that slowly grew louder. From the same direction he and Zheja had come, appeared the dark tan female raptor, looking none too better than the both of them. The green raptor let out a sigh of relief. "Well take a look at this...damn it, Hazel, I thought I lost you again" He growled. "You did" Hazel snorted. "I just happened to have found you. Saw you and another come up this way" She continued before plopping down where she stood, too tired to continue on. Aircrest forced himself back to his feet, walking with some strain to keep from falling himself. Once he was close, he let himself drop, nuzzling the drugged raptor. "Did...you see Selena out there?" He panted, fighting to stay awake. Hazel's eyes half closed and she shook her head no. "Im...sorry" She growled. "She....she...might be..." She tried to say, but couldnt finish the sentence. She was too tired to be the bearer of such news. Aircrest simply let his head drop. He was too weak to search. He only hoped where ever she was, Selena was alright

[TyrannoTitan]

Zheja frowned as he watched the scene. "Hey...don't give up already! If her family is anything to go by, she's not ganna let a few humans take her down!" he growled reassuringly, resisting the urge to add "she'll take herself out before then". Even in such hard times, he couldn't stop himself from coming up with inappropriate things to say...

[Hopeflower]

Silver was absolutely exhausted. She didn't know how long she'd been searching; weeks, months? All she knew was that she hadn't found the one she was looking for...and at this point, was it even likely that she would? She was on the verge of giving up and admitting to herself that her mate was gone. A tiny squeak behind her made her turn her head. Thistle, the smallest and youngest of her three newest hatchlings, brought into the world before Rawclaw had disappeared, had fallen behind. Turning to pick up the tiny raptor in her claws, Silver let out a quiet sigh. Little ones...have I failed you? Am I wrong to give up after carrying on for so long? You deserve better than this... she thought, turning back to the direction she'd been moving. The oldest of the three, Steelclaw, trekked on determinedly at Silver's side. And the one who had been born in the middle, Carus, was riding on Silver's back. "Thistle can never keep up," he now complained. "She's too small and weak." "She's no smaller than you," Steelclaw shot back in mild tones. "And besides, she's been walking all day while you've been riding on mother's back, Carus." "I m-might be small, but I can manage, mother," Thistle chirped, her voice betraying her exhaustion. The small female was so tired her head rested limply against her mother's hand, tail poking out from between Silver's fingers and swaying gently in time with Silver's steps. "Hush, little ones," Silver murmured. "We'll find a den soon." "And food? I'm so hungry I could eat a whole Troodon." Thistle asked hopefully. "And food," the off-white female reassured her daughter.


"Switchblade? Anyone?" Rose barked again, her voice a little stronger now, trying to get up. The world spun around her and she staggered, narrowly avoiding stepping on another raptor's tail. "Watch it," a drowsy but irritable female voice growled. "W-who's there?" Rose growled, turning to face the speaker. "My name," the female growled, "is Selena. Do me a favor and don't step on my tail...I'm dizzy enough without worrying about potential injuries." "I-I'm sorry...I didn't see - " Rose stopped, her heart giving a painful squeeze. Selena's voice softened. "Accidents happen, little one. I'd suggest finding a nice place to rest for a while." "Is that where you're going? C-can I stay with you for a little while?" Rose asked, trying not to sound weak or needy. This raptor had a familiar scent, and the name was familiar too. Selena grunted. "Stay, go, whatever you like."


Alira had staggered to the edge of the forest after she'd woken up and collapsed under a tree, just staring up at the sky and breathing in the scent of home. She let out a low groan that turned into a sigh. The trees were spinning and her legs felt as if she'd just come out of her egg; weak and uncooperative. The black red and silver allosaur could still feel the pinch of the thing that made her pass out. Damn humans...can't just live and let live, can they? she thought irritably. No...they're like hatchlings. Noses into everything. They just don't know when to quit... Her eyelids were heavy...she found herself drifting off again. Blade, she thought, struggling to stay awake. She tried to lift her head to look around for him, but her body wasn't cooperating. The humans must've gotten him too. He wasn't far from me... Her sky blue eyes were closing of their own will. The crash and roar of the waves seemed to grow quieter and quieter as she began to fall asleep. I hope everyone's alright...

[C S]

"Yeah...no sh*t" Aircrest barked in response, raising his head and turning to face Zheja, revealing a smirk on his face. "Just too damn tired to do anything to find her..." He snorted. "Its pissing me right the f*ck off. If I wasnt too tired to be angry...I'd be pretty damn angry right now!"
"Aircrest...calm down...your just going to burn yourself out" Hazel growled, just on the verge of drifting off to sleep

[TyrannoTitan]

Zheja shrugged, resting his head near the bush shielding him from view. He was hungry, thirsty, and tired all at once...he would tackle what he was good at first, relaxing with a yawn.

[C S]

"....Bah" Aircrest snorted before he laid his chin on Hazel's side, following in her and Zheja's examples. He exhaled sharply, a puff of vapor escaping his nostrils as he tried to calm himself down

[Evil Eye]

Pulsar managed to get to his feet, panting slightly, and shaking his head multiple times to clear it.
He eyed the other three raptors, tentatively hissing, "We seem to be missing a few..."

[The Kingpin]

"Glad to see you're intact" growled Fatalis tiredly as he stood, the rest of the pack collected a few feet away. he looked around, taking in his surroundings. "home at last" he growled with a smile, taking in the scents around him. surrounding them, at varying distances, were many other dinosaurs. the herbivores were in the distance, and had already risen, moving hurriedly into the treeline, heading for their old grazing grounds....



Crusher rose to his feet with a yawn, stretching, before looking around him. at his feet were his family, all of them steadily waking up, Serena hopping around from one to the other trying to wake them up. the Rex took in the scents around him, his eyes moving across the landscape, the beach and the treeline telling him he was home. the surroundings were likely those on the Western Shore of the island. he smirked, happy that he finally had the chance to avenge his family. Nightshade, you're going to regret betraying the family when i get ahold of you he thought. Rampage stood up with a yawn, her exhausted voice mumbling a "where are we?". "Home" responded Crusher with a smile, the female Rex' head turning abruptly to face him. "You're joking" she growled in disbelief. "Look around you" he growled, Rampage's eyes skimming over the landscape, smiling. Hunter stood, Lightning at his side. "We need to find Rox" growled Lightning. "If we search for her, we search together. Nightshade will pick us off one at a time if we splitup" growled Crusher, remembering the painful childhood he suffered, and the price he had to pay for his power. Rampage nodded. "Crusher's right. we need to stick together" she growled. "Our daughter's out there! the faster we find her the sooner we can get her back, and safe!" retorted Lightning. "Chances are if Nightshade knows about her he's waiting for a chance to use her to hurt us. if we move together we can stop him from harming her when we find her. trust me. he used that tactic on me for 20 years. killed off my family one at a time whenever i found one" growled Crusher. Lightning stared in disbelief, but was calmed by Hunter. "He's right Lightning. If we split up there's no guarantee we can intervene in an attack when we find her. Nightshade could have several predators attacking her when we find her. then we'll be powerless to save her" he growled. Lightning eyed her mate worriedly, but sighed, deciding that there was no chance of changing their minds on the issue. Serena stood close to her mother's feet, discomforted after the incident with the humans. Crusher began to walk forward. it was time he took his territory back.....again....


Blade yawned widely as he stood. glancing around, he sighed. Home sweet home he thought happily. glancing around, he searched for Alira, spotting her a few dozen feet away, in the shade of the treeline, asleep. he began to walk towards her wondering how she was feeling...

Hellfire meanwhile, was glancing around. the crash of the waves behind him was music to his ears. the distant calls of dinosaurs in the jungle seemed to reach out to him. with a sigh of relief, the Deinonychus began to walk towards the jungle. it was time he started living again....



Ripper was already well into the jungle, having woken up fairly early. first order of business: clean out his old home. all sorts of mongrels had undoubtedly begun to inhabit the lab in his absence, and he preffered it silent and peaceful...


As for Erebus, the Triceratops, he was still grumbling, as always. "Why oh why must life be so cruel...now i'm DREAMING of food...the moment i bite into any of these delicious looking ferns i'll wake up and find myself munching on those disgusting.....WEEDS, in the middle of a rocky human path" grumbled the trike as he slowly walked into the treeline, the rich flora around him being drool-inducing to the hungry ceratopsian...


Midnight was swiftly sprinting into the jungle. he wanted to find his young. Echo, Starspot, Blackstorm....and of course....Fatalis. he needed to find them....all of them...

[Pyronychus]

"Heh, yeah probably. At least until the ground stops moving," Sylicora hissed to Howler with a light snicker, shifting her feet slightly to compensate for what she thought was motion, before leaning in the other direction against Howler's side when it seemed to change direction. Rhojis seemed only slightly more coordinated, almost tripping when he turned a little bit to look at Pulsar. "True... I haven't seen Renegade anywhere..." he hissed before glancing at Fatalis...

Though Switchblade's legs felt like they might give out at any moment, she managed with some effort to stand almost fully up again. Looking in the direction she thought she'd seen the creature, her gaze came to rest on a clump of ferns nearer to the forest. "What is-" she started to mumble, then stopped and blinked several times, making sure she was really seeing it. At first it looked like a brownish-orange snake, but she realized with a mild jolt what it really was after she saw the way it moved. The green Lili started taking a few shaky steps toward it, cautious but too curious to ignore it...

[Hopeflower]

Mwuaji arrived at the half-boulder just after Viridis. Panting, he settled into a crouch, dropping his load of flesh beside hers. The mottled green female's white-striped flanks were heaving. The golden-brown mutant began to growl, looking back the way they'd come. "That was our prey," he muttered. Viridis snorted. "You want to go back and say that to those Allosaurs? Be my guest," she snarled. Her claws flexed; he guessed she was just as frustrated as he was. He looked away from her coldly glittering dark eyes.

"Siri thought you two might be here," a new voice, deep and rough, growled. Both young raptors looked up to see a pale gray raptor with the same black eyes as Viridis standing on top of the split rock. He had a white stripe trailing down his spine, which split into several along his ribs. His hands and feet were dull gray, almost the same color as the stone he stood on, and his tail was ringed with black and tipped with white. His underbelly was even lighter gray than his pale coloring. "She and Inculta heard the roars and sent me to meet up with you," the newcomer went on.

"Does she think we need someone to watch us, Astus?" Viridis growled, but she seemed to relax a bit. For a heartbeat jealousy swept through Mwuaji. This family was a close-knit pack. Their bonds would keep them together until their death. He didn't have that bond in his old pack; instead he was thrown out as soon as he was able to look after himself.

"Hardly," Astus growled, jarring the young male from his thoughts. "She sent me ahead in case those two Allosaurs decided to follow." He lifted his head to scan the jungle. "They should be along any minute now." He fell silent, eying what they were able to salvage. "That all you could get?"

"That's all we had time to get," Viridis growled. "If we'd had more warning we might've been able to go back and - "

"Going back would've been suicide," Mwuaji interrupted. Addressing Astus, he growled, "Yes, this is all we could get. I know it's not much but if we divide it evenly, it should keep us going until we can catch something else." Instead of replying, Astus gave a grunt and went back to watching the jungle. Mwuaji, feeling unfairly dismissed, turned away. He snapped up a compy that was making advances at the meat and began chewing on it to distract himself from the feeling of dejection that was creeping up on him. Why couldn't this pack see that he wasn't going to kill them while they slept?

[C S]

"Im...going to look for her" Aircrest growled a few minutes later, unable to just lay down while his mate could be in danger. "Aircrest...what are you going on about...?" Hazel grunted, turning her head to look up at her brother. "You've only been resting for a moment or two!"
"Thats enough rest for me" Aircrest growled, the tranqulizer in his system being overcome by his metabolism kick starting again. The image of the world around him had stopped blurring and spinning, and with it came his balance. "Im going." He looked to the black and white raptor and hissed "You take care of her. I may hardly know you, and you know her even less, but guard her with your life" He blinked a few times, noting that the raptor had yet to recover as he had. "Er...on second thought...never mind. Ill be back soon" He barked, before turning in the direction of the beach and speeding off. "...Damn it Aircrest" Hazel muttered, shaking her head lazilly

[Evil Eye]

"And the little ones are gone as well," Pulsar hissed in reply, looking around. The action turned out to be too much for him, as he stumbled over his wobbly legs, waiting for the dizziness to clear...

Renegade walked on, having started to get more of a grip on his surroundings. He had been the first to wake from the human's tampering; disoriented and unknowing, he had left his pack and staggered off into the surrounding forest, seeking refuge from the bright sun, and shelter from its heat...

[Godzilla Forever]

Gothmog lumbers through the jungle, the smell of it and the sight of its majesty in his beady, poorly working eyes seem to make the giga calm again. Suddenly, he smells flesh. Drooling, the giga heads in its direction.....

[Hopeflower]

"Here," Silver growled, stopping by a stream, pleased with her find. The stream was wide enough that she could rest comfortably in the shallows, and fed a small, deep pool that looked just about right for teaching her little ones to swim and fish, just as Darkness had once taught her. Long grasses and ferns drooped over the banks of the stream and lined the sides of the pool, providing places to hide if worse came to worse. The murmur of the stream nearly drowned the crashing of waves, but she could still hear the hiss and roar of the ocean on a sandy shore. Was she that close? Putting the thought out of her mind for now, she approached an old, gnarled tree. One of its roots arched all the way from one bank to the other, almost touching the water, and looked strong and thick. And the stream, probably during a flood, had washed the dirt away from the rest of the roots, making a nice cave that anything bigger than a raptor would find it difficult to get into. Carus lifted his head and looked around. "I like it," Steelclaw growled. "We can live here, right?" Thistle asked, rousing herself a little. The rest had done wonders for her; her eyes were bright again and she looked eager to get to exploring. "Yes, little one," Silver growled, glad that her offspring approved. She'd never try to force them to live in a place they didn't like. "We can live here." Leading Steelclaw into the cave, she set Thistle down on the soft dirt. Carus leaped from his perch, still looking around. "Now, I'll see what I can do about food," the adult growled, turning to investigate the stream. She'd seen some flashes of silver; there were definitely fish here. A minute later, she was back, carrying two fish in her jaws and a bigger one in her claws. She put one fish in front of Steelclaw and Carus and the other in front of Thistle, and took the last for herself. As she began to eat, she found herself getting lost in memories of learning how to swim, and watching Darkness fish, and the day Steeltalon's and his hatchlings were born. She missed both of her foster parents with such intensity it was almost a constant dull ache in her heart. She missed the old days...she missed her foster mother...she missed Switchblade...she missed everyone who used to be part of their group. But that was the past. As painful as it was to admit, those days were over. Her children needed her now. They need their father too, she thought, and closed her eyes. Rawclaw...my love...I don't know where you are...but I know you would be proud of your children. Steelclaw is turning out to have a leader's personality, and Thistle learns so quickly...and Carus is turning into a fine fighter. And wherever Rose is now, I'm sure she's surrounded by raptors who will help and encourage her to be the best she can be.


Selena was glad to be back. Really, she was. But her head was spinning, her knees were shaking, and now she had a blind raptor tagging along with her. She let out a bark, calling for her mate, or Hazel, or anyone that she'd been with before the humans had showed up.


Alira shifted a little, muttering in her sleep. Her eyes roamed restlessly beneath her eyelids and her upper lip curled back as if she was going to snarl. Her dreams were confused and chaotic; at one point she thought she saw Cirrus, staring at her with the concerned gaze of the older brother he could've been. Then his image blurred; turned into her own form, gazing at her with eyes full of sorrow and confusion. The scene changed again, turned into Boulder's mangled corpse and Cirrus rallying the pack against her; Cirrus pinning the murder on her; the pack's angry, accusing stares - they believed him. Why did they believe him? Then she was being chased out, for a crime she didn't commit. Then Cirrus was staring at her again...he looked so lost, so guilt-stricken, so pleading. His voice came to her in a bare whisper: I'm so sorry, sister. Then he was gone, and Alira was left in darkness. A murmur of "brother" escaped her, before she slipped into a deeper, dreamless sleep.

[TyrannoTitan]

"Wassat?" Zheja growled sleepily, just after the green raptor left. His gaze, after poking his head through the bush, fell on the only remaining raptor. "Supposed to..guard...this...bush?" he growled, confused.

Rapture waited. Although he was sure he heard something behind him a moment ago, it seemed whatever it was stopped or left. The Lili craned his neck, exposing his crested head, eyes darting around. Although the raptors were still in sight, none appeared to be near. His eyes rested on the other of his species, who had been sleeping nearby last he checked. With a sigh of relief, he pulled back his head, the Lili rolling onto his feet. Standing shakily behind the ferns, he craned his long neck from side to side, loosening his sleep-stiffened muscles.

[C S]

"Dont mind him" Hazel growled, shifting about with a few grunts of effort. "We need rest more than anything" She added, almost breathless when she was comfortable

Aircrest bounded out of the trees and into the sand of the beach. His foot falls kicked up clouds of sand that trailed him as he skidded about. He cocked his head at the sound of his mate's voice. She wasnt too far away. He turned his body about, honing in on the sound and stream lining his body, shooting off towards Selena. He let out an answering bark, letting her know he was on his way.

[Pyronychus]

For a few seconds, the green Lili could do nothing but stare, mouth hanging slightly open. It hadn't been a waking dream... There she was thinking it was going to be a never-ending search, then suddenly, there was one of her kind standing just a few yards away. All of a sudden, she didn't quite know what to do. Feeling her legs shake again, she hoped they weren't about to give out. She opened her mouth, closed it again, seemed to try to think of something, then ended up hissing somewhat lamely, finally breaking her slack-jawed stare, "Uh... S-sorry... I think I'm still a little... tired. Uh-" Just then, a clump of tall, sand colored grass nearby swayed, something in its shade making a light groan, the green Lili watching with ever increasing surprise as the tip of a crested, light gray snout poked into the open...

[TyrannoTitan]

"You and me both, sister." Rapture growled in response, head snapping to the source of the groan. Another of his kind. Once again the Lili breathed a sigh of relief. He had been scenting the air...there was more then just raptors and Liliensternus here...it unnerved him just to stick around.

"I like the way you think." Zheja growled with a yawn, pulling back his head...

[C S]

"I was told being lazy and going out of your way to do nothing was harder than actually being active. Is this true?" Hazel growled, making a subtle joke at the stranger's habits.


Aircrest slowed down to a stop as he approached his mate. He could see that she was still quite dazed, so he braced against her side, trying to give her a sense of balance. "We really need to stop meeting like this, Selena" Aircrest growled, only half jokingly, grasping her side as tightly as he could without having his clawed fingers slice her skin

[dinoman666]

Howler grinned, still trying to keep the raptors upright as Razorwing and Dragonfly hopped into view. "Hey guys! Enjoying the view?" the little pterosaur asked cheerfully.
