DISCLAIMER

This story is heavily influenced by the lore of Ark and follows similarly. However, although it takes place in similar fashion, it takes liberty to create its own lore and to blend that with the lore that already exists. This is not an attempt to explain the lore of Ark, neither is it to pretend to have come up entirely with a new plot line, rather it is meant to build and base itself of of the lore that has already been provided for the world of FanFiction.

Prologue

In the basement of an apartment in Seattle, Washington, six men sat around a table. It was dark in the room, the fireplace providing warmth from the cold and dreary night. The men were a peculiar bunch. One sat with a virtual reality headset sitting on his head. He sat there impatiently as he watched the man next to him messing around on a computer, working on his fourth attempt at creating his so called ‘unreal’ program. Next to him was a man who seemed nearly ghost-like, as if he was not entirely there, just an abstract idea of a man. In the next seat was a man who looked like he came from an older town, the ones that were filled with neon signs and lights. He had been helping the man with his program all day. Next to him was a man whose T-shirt read, “Instinct Over Impulse.” He was a man of few words, but stuck by his friends at all times. The final seat was filled by a man wearing a suit coat, as well as a beat up top hat. In his hand he fingered a playing card with a Joker on it.

“Finished!” The man at the computer exclaimed. The men all gathered excitedly to see the program. They gathered around closely as it opened. When it did, it began a story…

“Boom!” A bomb exploded. Nothing remained except for one small particle. Element. That was what the humans had called it. It was what they would call a miracle substance. The Earth was beginning to fade: the natural resources had been exhausted, pollution filled the air, the wildlife had been nearly eradicated, and humans were getting sick and dying. But this ‘Element’ could be the resource they needed to save Earth. Scientists from across the world began to experiment. Earth began to recover. All seemed well, until war broke out. The fighting raged for years. Soldiers fought in high tech armor made of Element, using weapons of the same type. However, the pollution from the elemental weapons began to take a toll on Earth. Soon, everyone had to leave, as Earth slowly became corrupted by the unrefined Element that seemed to almost be a being itself. They launched two programs to ensure survival: the first launched space stations containing life into orbit around the Earth, while the other prepared to launch a spaceship to find a new home planet. They began to simulate people onto these ‘Arks’ as they called them. These people were those who had died in the past, given a second chance to live thanks to the experienced scientists of the time. However, with the corruption spreading, the citizens of Earth had to board the ship, as they did not have time for the Arks to run their course. However, the ship never launched. Earth was taken over by monstrous creatures before everyone could leave. But a last chance, a small glimmer, a faint hope was found in the Arks. Over time, several survivors began to show prominence: Helena, Mei Yin, Rockwell. However, Rockwell fell to the corruption of element. He become one with the system…

The six friends stood together watching. Suddenly, the computer came to life. It began to glow. “He’s escaped the system!” The man who sat at the computer exclaimed. His eyes widened. This was impossible. How could Rockwell actually live in the program and escape. He didn’t know but he had no time to figure it out. He quickly began to shut down all of his systems, but his file was corrupted. However, rather then let the monster he created loose, he reluctantly sent the file into the depths of the internet. He managed to lock the file from the outside, but the program continued to run on its own, although it was unable to affect anything. The friends sat down in relief, glad that their friend was able to save them. However, the man couldn’t help but wonder what would happen within his program as it plummeted into the vast reaches of time and space, never to be seen…

Life Before

Chapter Three: Talia.

Connor opened his eyes. He was in a white room. His two ‘Rescuers’ sat in chairs beside his bed. The woman stood up when she saw him sit up. “W-where am I?” Connor questioned. “Who are you?” The man asked in a cold tone. “Connor. Connor Jacobs. Who are you?” Connor asked. “My names Peter. This is Talia.” The man said as he motioned towards the female. The woman, Talia, perked up at the sound of her name. “Who do you work for? The government?” Peter asked coldly. “No. I hate them.” Connor replied. “Good. WolfGang its safe to come in.” Talia said. The door opened and a man who looked similar to Talia walked in. He had short black hair, a white suit like Talia and Peter’s, and a wooden stump where his right foot would be. He smiled a crooked smile at Talia. "Er ist also nicht gefährlich?" WolfGang asked. "Nein, nein, ist er nicht. Wenn er es ist, werde ich dich beschützen.” Talia replied. WolfGang smiled again and walked over to Talia. “Who are you guys? Assassins?” Connor asked cautiously. “No, we’re The Rejected. Outcasts who are constantly at war with the American government. We tried boarding the Ark a few months ago. They said we weren’t Survival material.” Peter responded angrily. "Wie heißt er?" WolfGang asked. "Er sagt, es ist Connor Jacobs.” Talia responded quickly. “Connor Jacobs?!As in, der Sohn des Präsidenten?" WolfGang Exclaimed. “WolfGang asked if your the same Connor Jacobs as the president’s son?” Talia asked. “Yes I am. Talia’s eyes lit up with excitement, then they rolled back into there sockets.

Hope’s Call

Chapter Two: The file.

“…sitting here rotting my life away in this stupid jail cell! While my allies do nothing too save me! Stupid Rockwell, I don’t need you, I can get out on my own!” A dark voice muttered. Buddy walked in between the jail cells, looking at the prisoners. Among them was an frail black terror bird. The terror bird continued muttering quietly. Buddy walked up too the cell. “How are you holding up brother?” Buddy asked. Ember glared at him. “ADOPTED!! Besides why would you care?” Ember snapped. Buddy looked at him strangely. Buddy leaned forward and looked straight into Ember’s eyes. “You know what I want!” Buddy whispered coldly. Ember sunk closer too the floor. “Give it. Now!” Buddy whispered. Ember nodded and backed towards the back of the room. He lifted a tile with his beak and pulled a small book from underneath it. He walked up too Buddy and dropped the book in between the bars. “All the information you need is inside this file, Edmund.” Ember whispered. Buddy opened the file and read it quickly. “Ah… so your brother has a living daughter! Your allies captured her?” A old cracked voice asked from Buddy’s mouth. “I think so, I don’t really know because I’m locked in a prison cell!” Ember sneered. Buddy looked at the file and it shriveled into a burnt black piece of paper. Buddy looked at Ember. Buddy’s eyes flashed white and he fell backwards. “Why am I down here?” Buddy muttered. He looked very confused. Ember chuckled ominously. “Have you come to release me? Have you finally figured out my true greatness? Have you come too asks for help? Is running a kingdom harder then you thought it would be? Mostly the first and second question!” Ember asked hopefully. “N-wait what?” Buddy asked. Ember grinned evily and backed into the shadows of the cell. “You don’t see anything….” Ember said ominously from the shadows. Buddy shook his head in confusion and walked away.

Today We Rise

Hola my fellow Dododex peeps. I'm working through a lot right now and don't always have the time to write... Please be patient if I don't post the next chapter on time!

-Still can't think of a name : Anonymous-

Chapter 5

The beast that sat atop that throne was huge. It had the head and body of a lion, the wings of a bat and the tail of a scorpion. I. Was. Scared. Simple as that. Never in my life had I ever seen such a creature. It's wings were torn and it's body was covered in burns and scars, making it look a little ugly. The tears on it's wings would have been fine if the wings hadn't been scorched. What was left was a few pitiful scraps hanging form the bone that supports them. It's face was burned and the side that was burned had a metal face plate on it. The bird things on either side had this metal plate too. One of Torrens legs was missing and had been replaced with an old rusty metal one. You could definitely tell he had been through some wars or something.

"Lexi, this is Torren. He is the one who built this temple," Pathro smiled

"Wow... I mean hi," I let out a nervous laugh

"Hello," Torren nodded

"If I may ask, what are you?" I asked

Torren chuckled, "I am a Manticore."

"Manticore?" I whispered to my self. I have heard this name before... But where?

"We have just come to say hello and look around the Temple, if you don't mind of course," Pathro smiled

"Go ahead, just no treasure room," Torren said. Pathro smiled and grabbed my hand again, leading me down a dark tunnel.

"Treasure room?" I asked about 5 ft into the tunnel

"Yeah, Torren is basically a god here. People and dinosaurs come from miles around to bring him gifts," Pathro explained.

"Oh.." the thought of more people being on the island or somewhere else in the world excited me. I hope more people come along eventually.

(2 Hours Later...)

Coming out of the Temple, I was pretty much blinded by the sun.

"Where are the wolves?" I asked. They were nowhere to be found

Pathro whistled. A moment later Night came bounding out of the trees, wagging his tail.

"Now you call Sand," Pathro said, climbing onto Night's back.

I paused and then attempted whistling. It went much better than I had expected. Soon Sand too came running out of the woods.

"Hi Sand!" I pulled myself onto her back and patted her neck.

"Alright, let's go," Pathro tapped Night's flank and was off in a moment.

"Come on Sand," I whispered. She bolted in the direction Night and Pathro went and ,once again, was able to catch up no problem.

We rode in silence for a while, that is until something large roared from the woods.

"What was that?" I began to panic

"Rex," Pathro sighed, "Come on, we must get home NOW." As we tore across the forest floor, I couldn't help but notice the larger footsteps that seemed to following us. I shook my head, Im probably just imagining things again. Eventually we mad with back home, I could no longer here the footsteps but still kept and eye out. We left the wolves with the others and enter the house.

"Hi Chicken!" I picked up the happy Dodo and hugged her. She squawked and pecked at my nose.

"What are you doing you crazy bird?" I giggled and put her down. She started running circles, like she knew something we didn't

"What is that bird doing?" Pathro asked, looking at Chicken suspiciously

"I don't know, she's probably just hungry," I pulled a small pouch form my pocket and took down berries from it.

"Here Chicken," I placed in the floor. In seconds she was sitting on the floor and devouring her berries greedily.

"Wow. Let's get some sleep," Pathro climbed up the stairs and went into his room, leaving me alone. I crossed the large living room to the couch and layed down. Sometime during the night Chicken came over and snuggled against me. Her warmth and the peaceful sounds outside helped ease me to sleep.

All the Light we Cannot see

Chapter 3

‘This must be a dream.’ Max thought as he sat down at a fancy table. How can a king around 30 years old be his grandson?! Perhaps he was still in bed, as the camp helper was setting up his plane. “Max, you must be wondering how did you get here?” His great great and some more great grandson asked. Max just nodded at him. “Oh I forgot, I’m Artois. That reminds me of something!” Artois said as he leaned on his chair and whispered something to the guard next to him, then the guard whispered something back. While Artois and the guard were whispering about something, Max looked around the room. It wasn’t very huge like the mess, since it was probably for the king and some guest. Suddenly something caught his attention. He heard a cricket noise outside the door. Max took out his cricket and press on it twice to confirm if it was real.

The same noise came back again, which means it wasn’t fake. “Uh Artois, can I go outside for a while?” Max asked which interrupted him. “Oh yes yes, you must have a long and strange day. Go out and get some fresh air.” Max got up from his chair and picked up his rifle right next to him. Max opened the door and walked out. Suddenly somebody grabbed him and pushed him against the wall. “Is it true you’re in first division air force?!” Demanded the mysterious person. Max nodded at the man. He was wearing a mask that was covering his mouth and nose, and a cloak. The man took off his mask.

“Andrew?!” Max exclaimed. “Quiet down, I’m gonna get caught.” Andrew said as he looked around anxiously. “I thought I was the only one that lost power during the flight.” Max said. “No, after we tried radioing you, you didn’t answer back. We assumed your plane was hit. Then suddenly I lost power and crashed landed on this damn island. I had to kill a chicken thing to survive. Then I found a village, knocked down a guard, and disguised as him.” Andrew explained. “Do you think the rest of the division is on the island or whatever this place is?” Max asked. “I doubt they survive the crash or even lost power, I tried contacting HQ but nothing came back. So I’m pretty sure stranded here if the rest of the division is here.” Andrew replied. Max suddenly heard some grunting and walking coming toward this way.

“Come on!” Max told Andrew. They escaped through the palace door and soon was outside, with people shouting and laughing. Andrew took of his cloak and putted on his bag. “Did you get changed yet?” Andrew asked as he was wearing a rifleman suit. “I already got it on since I was in my plane.” Max replied as he took out his pilot suit, he took his helmet from his backpack and putted it on. People that passed by was looking at the duos and whispering something about them. He heard one that called them ‘beggars’ which made Max really mad. “Look! It’s some ding dongs that came to beg!” A young teenager said aloud.

Max got so angry that he walked up to the kid, with Andrew behind him. Max grabbed the teenager by the collar and pulled him up. “Say that one more time, or this.” Max pulled out his pistol and shot at the air. The teenager became frightened and whimpered loudly, soon the entire place was chaos with people screaming and running. “That’s enough!” Shouted someone. Max dropped the teenager and looked at the door entrance of the palace. It was Artois. “Cover me.” Andrew whispered to Max.

Until a roar came.

The Terrible Demise of Tortuga

Chapter four.

Jay awoke the next morning, he laid in bed, thinking about last night. Aaron’s words echoed in his head. ‘Ever wonder why they have it?’ ‘They haven’t had an excuse to execute or hang anyone for years…’ His thoughts were interrupted by loud snoring. *snore* *snore* *snooooore* Jay groaned, but Jack continued to snore. Jack took after their father who was a hard sleeper and a hard snorer. Jay hopped down from his bunk and shook his brother. “Jack get up! Get up!” Jay said. Jack groaned. “Get up get up Jack!” Jay shook Jack till he finally sat up groggily. “What?” Jack grimaced. “Breakfast.” Jay said simply then he walked from the room. Indeed this one word motivated Jack to stumble his way to the kitchen where his mother and Emma were setting the table for breakfast. There was grits, eggs, and crispy bacon. Jack’s stomach growled. He sat down next to Jay and quick as a whip snatched a piece of bacon. Arianna fixed him with a stern look. “You’ll wait like everyone else.” She informed him. Jack sighed regretfully. “Fine.” He growled. Aragorn was already seated at the table, pouring himself a steaming cup of hot coffee. Once Arianna and Emma had sat down they bowed their heads and Aragorn prayed: “thank you lord for this food and for providing it for us. Thank you for giving us this house and everything else you gave us. In your precious son’s name..” “amen” They all said. Everyone began to eat. “So mjm wat ar wa doin tody?” Jack asked. Aragorn looked at him. “Swallow son, your mother can’t understand you.” Aragorn declared. Jack turned red then swallowed the bite of food with a gulp of milk. “So mom, what are we doing today.” Arianna smiled. “Well Jack, you and your siblings will be going to… make some new friends while me and your father unpack.” Jay and Jack stared at her with their mouths open despite the food in them. Emma grimaced. “Ew, can y’all swallow BEFORE you do that? I don’t want to see that.” She said. Jack and Jay immediately complied. When they had swallowed Jay spoke up: “mom? Why? We don’t need new frie-“ Aragorn cleared his throat. “Listen to your mother.” And so after breakfast they set off to ‘make new friends’.

Next chapter coming soon. I’m glad y’all are reading.

Hope’s Cry

Chapter Four

Buddy woke up to the smell of cooked meat. Buddy, who had always liked Cooked meat looked around for the source. Buddy noticed that he was in a large room, with walls made out of stone, and a red carpeted floor with gold lining it. Then there was the table he was sitting at, it was in front of a golden throne. Sitting in the throne was a black Terror Bird. The terror bird seamed to be feasting on the carcass of a large deer. On top of the table was almost every type of food that could be eaten, and what was even better was that the food was cooked to perfection! “Who are you?” Buddy asked the terror bird. The bird coughed then looked at Buddy. “My name is King Ember Black. I am the king around here, and I would prefer you call me ‘Your Majesty’ or ‘Your Royal Highness!’ Now that I’ve told you my name, I advise you tell me yours.” The terror bird replied crisply. “Call me Buddy… Mr. Black.” Buddy said. Ember glared. “Not many creatures have as much nerve as you seem to have. Now I believe I told you too call me your majesty!” Ember said. “What do you want from me?” Buddy asked bored. “I need your help getting into The Kong Estate.”

Well next chapter in Anklyo! Pls leave a like! And where does Shadow usually hang out? Pls tell me! But I hope you guys like my story so far!!!😁😁

Live Or Die

Chapter 6: Retribution

We all watched in anticipation as Ruby saddled Violette. With shakey hands, she sat on her trusty steed’s back and took the reins. Before long, she was teaching us how to ride our raptors. Lesson after lesson, night after night, we practised and practised until finally we had mastered the art of riding our 65-million years worth of killing instinct. It had even gotten to the point that I could fire my bow from Dagger’s back! The others could do other tricks from their mounts’ backs. That’s when we decided- we would have to look for a more permanent spot to live. No more running, no more hiding or sleeping on sodden clumps of grass in flimsy cloth clothing- we were gonna set up a camp somewhere. Somewhere perfect. Somewhere where that… ‘Empire’ couldn’t reach us. Somewhere safe.

“Hey, you coming?” Dasha yelled at me as she fastened her bags and pouches to Sovereignty’s saddle. Dagger clicked his throat and shook his neck. I lept onto the saddle and rushed up to Dasha.

“Yeah, I’m ready.” I responded. She smiled, hopped onto Sovereignty and we trotted up to the others. We disappeared into the jungle, leaving the clearing that had kept us safe for so long.

It wasn’t long before we were well and truly lost deep into the forest, killing any raptors or compys that went after us. And, just like last time we were in the thick of the bush, chaos struck. Or, Raphiel struck. He and his goons, now wearing some kind of… scaly armour, even if some were without shirts or gauntlets, with a few on parasaurs. they pointed their spears and bows at us, and Raphiel drew a sword. It was poorly crafted, but it was a sword.

“So we meet again! How nice of you to wander into our territories.” He pointed the sword at me and exclaimed “As you can see, we have mounts as well.” I retaliated with a steely glare and a shout of:

“Sure, but we have 7 sets of 65 million years of killing machines at our reins.” He took a step back at my exclamation, but regained his footing and responded:

“I have slain many a beast as that one. It is no different from the rest.”

“Care to find out?” Dasha took my side. Harvey and Master took my other side, while the other 6 (Jude, Blabs, Ruby, Violette, Madré and the unnamed raptor) hung behind a little. Our opposition snarled a bit and threw their spears at us with a giant cry. One peirced Madré’s side, and Blabs caught one in his mouth, where he crushed it and we charged in. Raphiel swung his sword at me, and I blocked with my bow. I was knocked off Dagger as he rushed after someone else, but I snagged an arrow from the quiver on his saddle and slashed it at Raphiel. He clearly wasn’t good with short ranged combat, but he held his own for a short while. I stabbed his shoulder with the arrow and I grabbed the sword as he stumbled back and cried out in pain. He spun round with a spear, and it slashed across my face, widening the small scar that was already there. Blood gushed over one of my eyes. I blindly swung my weapon at Raphiel, and I heard him cry out again but before I could see the damage I had done Dagger swept me up and put me back on the saddle. Then, during the heat of the conflict, there was a loud thud. The trees shook, pteranodon flew away and the ground rumbled. *THUD*. *THUD*. *THUD*. The gargantuan beast emerged through the treeline, saw the scene and took a deep breath in. I was on the verge of collapsing, and I smiled.

“Ha… Retribution.” The Rex, Black as night except for A streak of crimson red along its back and belly, and a stream of crimson that cut vertically over its right eye, let out an ear-decimating roar and swallowed a parasaur and its rider in one bite. It began to tear through us. I could hear Harvey scream.

“RUUUUUUUNN!!” and as the world seemed to slow, I made eye-contact with this apex predator. It stopped long enough for a spear to deflect off its side, and Dagger took off with the others as the screams of our enemies died with the soul-peircing crunch of the Rex. I blacked out, only remembering the scent of water… slowly lapping, as the world seemed to fade away into the scarlet mess that was my eye.

Next in attack drone! Hope you enjoyed =D and we’ll see what happens with the new Rex, Retribution, in 2023- Yup! Writing this on new year’s eve, so happy new year all!

The Arks: Over Heaven (by Ben)

Chapter 36: Soon to be Scouting

Part 3/3

Ruby and Sunny managed to catch up to Paige, slightly out of breath.

“Whew, that was tiring,” Ruby muttered, slowly heaving in and out. Paige let out a groan, crawling out from the bloody mess and wiping the splinters off her palms.

“Well we got it. That’s all that matters,” Paige said, putting her club away.

Suddenly, a stench hit their nostrils. A very powerful one at that. Paige gagged, fanning the air and plugging her nose.

“What is that gross air?” Paige choked. Sunny looked to the side to see a giant pile of dung sitting on the ground, flies surrounding it and bugs crawling out. She nearly vomited at the sight, turning away.

Ruby took her glasses off, folded them, and put them away in her pouch, letting out a murmur of surprise.

“That is one big pile of shi-”

“Hey, look at this!” Sunny burst into joy. She picked something small, around the size of someone’s hand, off the ground and showed it to Paige and Ruby. It was a baby version of the pig.

“Ew, get that thing away from me! It’s probably responsible for that mess it made over there!” Paige gasped, swatting Sunny’s hand away.

“Exactly why we should keep it. It’d be perfect for fertilizer! Maybe then I wouldn’t have to pick up so much…” Sunny said, scratching her chin, “I think we should keep it!”

“I suppose if you REALLY want to keep it, then go for it,” Ruby said with hooded eyes, “But we are NOT going to be parenting that thing, got it?”

“Alright alright, you won’t. But think of it as a long term investment. Sure enough we’ll have so many crops! Maybe someone back at camp knows how to cook, and will make something good.”

Ruby’s ears perked up at the mention of cooking.

“Cooking huh?” Ruby said, “Y’know what, maybe it’s not such a bad idea after all.”

Paige scoffed, hauling the small pig onto her shoulder and letting out a groan.

“Alright enough diddle-daddling. Let’s go now. I’m getting sleepy, and I wanna go back to camp already.”

With that the three girls made their way back to the others to tame the Pteranodon.

The ARKS: part six

As the celebration continues in his half-done wooden base, Jeffery and Que said together “shut up we get it now, survivor.” To him that was a great sign to stop.

*THUD, THUD*

All three were shocked to find a massive brontosaurus with rock looking spines on their back, “WHO DARES COME TO THIS LAND?” The mysterious bronto says, survivor, Jeffery and Que poop at quite the same time. “Uhh- u- uh I was teleported here, f-from another d-dimension” said Survivor, the only one who tried to speak. “DIMENSION? TELEPORT? TAKE A LOOK AT THIS CREATURE, HAA-HAHA HAAAA!” He lets out a booming laugh. “No im serious, I-I got here out of nowhere, so can you please leave me be?” Survivor retorts, then comes up with another question. “What are you, anyway?” The weird bronto stops. “You really don’t know who I am?!?” It replies in a confused and drastically lower volume. “No, i don’t, you look like a brontosaurus with rocks on its back” survivor comes up, “well, I am few of the Titanosaurs who watch and keep safety of this land!” He says, “ohh you are the guardians of this land? No wonder you came to me. Also, do you like my small house?” Survivor says in a normal tone, realizing the size of the titano. “Ah, yes, it is quite pleasant, may you like a little lift to see?” The titano responds, a “Sure!” Comes out from survivors mouth.

As he climbs onto his head, he is lifted up so high, he can see the Herbivore Island from his house.

Chapter 6

They ran across the green river. The swampy mist wasn’t cleared enough for them to see better. “We’re never gonna make it through all this mist!” Hissed Fury. “Maybe….- before he could finish talking, he got interrupted by shuttle - THERES NO TIME FOR SUGGESTIONS! JUST RUN THROUGH THE MIST! IGNORE IT!” Shuttle yelled. (Splash!) Shuttle was looking behind him.

***

The spinosaurs splashed into the green waters. ‘They ran into a TREE?’ Fury thought. ‘Alrighty now, that shows us that those spinosaurs are STUPID.’ He thought again. They kept running. Mia flew above. “Anything strange up there?” Anubis asked while she answered, “I see..a green glowing crystal in the air, do you think what I think?” She asked. “No, but we need to know what that is.” They ran father away from the swamp, chasing Mia across the green waters. When they got closer to the green crystal ore, a piece of it dropped on Mia’s bird like head. “OW!” She scowled. “What was THAT?!” Fury hissed constantly. They ran to the green piece of crystal ore. “What-what’s this?” Shuttle asked. Shuttle scolded that this piece of rune is his. “This is mine now! I saw it first!” Fury shouted back to Shuttle. “No I did, but that doesn’t mean it’s mine, it’s a rune, it belongs to no one.” A sneaky kapro snuck behind them and snapped at them as well as stealing the rune. “Hey! That our rune! We found it first!” Shuttle shouted. “Did you have your CLAWS on it first? No, I did. I stole it fair and square. It’s mine now. Finders keepers, loser weepers!” The kapro scolded. He ran back behind them straight towards the swampy mist. “Hey! GET BACK HERE YOU LITTLE- he got interrupted by Anubis and Sorow - now now Shuttle, it’s just a rune. All we need to do is find that kapro. It’s no big deal.” Sorow comforted. “Yeah Shuttle, be calm.” Anubis said. They searched for the sneaky kapro. Shuttle, still filled with anger, searched behind and in the trees by shaking it. His big claws shook every tree. “There you are you little sneaky kapro! That’s our rune! Now give it back!” Shuttle shouted. “No way! I’m not giving this rune back in till you trade me!” The kapro scolded again. They looked for something to trade. There was a Mesopithecus. ‘That little monkey..’ Fury thought. ‘No other survivor can tame this in time.’ He thought again. They chased the Meso around. Fury finally got it’s tail and bit it one by one. It died. Fury took it last where the kapro was. She wasn’t there anymore. It was like a game of hide n’ seek. Fury remember a long time ago, trying to play hide n’ seek with his brother, But that was when Nola showed up. They searched for the kapro again. And well, found nothing. Intill now. “Found you again!” He yelled. The kapro looked at the Meso in his jaws. “Hmm, looks like your here to trade me eh? I’ll take you to my cave. I have a lot of stolen items. Follow me.” The kapro said. They followed the kapro to the exstreamly dark cave. “How long till we’re there?” Fury muttered while carrying the dead Meso. “I can’t hold this for long. It’s hurting my teeth.” He muttered again. They walking inside while the kapro held the rune in his claws. “What would you like?” He asked. “The rune.” Anubis hissed slightly with anger. “This is off limits. ONLY, if you kill…The reaper.” The kapro said. “The REAPER? WHAT IS THAT?” he hissed confused. “The reaper!? You don’t know what the reaper is!?” The kapro hissed slightly. “No, is it some type of villain or something?” Fury asked. “Yes, if you know Nola, you should know the reaper.” The kapro said again. “Nola…yes we know her, but she didn’t tell us about the reaper.” Fury said. They discussed about the reaper. “Hmm..maybe I can help you defeat the reaper. By the way, my name is Joe.” He said. “Even though you only need 4 people for this prophecy, b u t, you can ALWAYS use another buddy.” Joe said. “Sorry for stealing this. It’s apart of my collection. Now all you need to do, is defeat the reaper. Also I’ll have that.” Joe took the dead Meso from Fury’s jaws and ate it. “Mmm. That’s a good taste.” Joe said. “What about those velanasaurs that were chasing us?” Fury asked. “Those velanasaurs that were chasing you, they were apart of the reaper’s army.” Joe answered. “Ok, it’s getting dark, we should look for somewhere to sleep.” Anubis muttered. They looked for a cave to be in for the night. “Oh! I completely forgot about finding Nola! I wanted to show her that we found everyone! A n d, that I’m not useless!” Fury said. “It’s too late now Fury. We have to sleep now.” Anubis muttered again. Everyone was tired. Joe found a cave to be in. “Maybe Nola is in this cave.” Joe said. But most of the people were asleep. “Oh, everyone is asleep. Well, good night.” Joe whispered. They slept intill morning.

The Ark chapter two

“Hey Iguana, you are seeing this… right?” David stood, on the beach, staring at the massive metal obelisk far away. “What is this? An island, filled with what I assume are dinosaurs, with giant floating metal laser things! What!” Iguana then seemed scared, crouching low to the ground and growling. At that moment, a six foot tall beast burst out of the nearby forest, chasing another Dino, this one with a crest on its head. After a few swipes of its claws, the larger, crested beast fell. David decided at that moment to start to back away, but the Dino noticed him and charged towards him. Luckily, before it could get its mouth around David’s neck, Iguana reared up and spat acid in the dinos face, blinding it and forcing it to slow down. Iguana then leaped on to the dinos back and clung on and ripped at its flesh, tearing through its muscle, and buying enough time for David to come up and start to beat down on the dino. The dino eventually got free of Iguana, and apparently decided it had had enough, because it ran back into the forest and dashed off. “Thanks for the save Iguana, but I’m gonna need some weapon or something to defend myself with eventually” Then he went over to a tree, and started to break branches off and tear thatch off it. With a stone he made a crude pickaxe, which he quickly learned that was fantastic for getting thatch but horrid at getting wood. “I can make this work. I can survive if I can get a house.” And so, he started about gathering materials for the shelter he had in mind. It would keep him safe.

That’s chapter two! See you in the next chapter, I’m going thru the carnivores in alphabetical order. See ya!

“Hey, I see them over there!” Ruby said, pointing at a trio of girls making their way back to the obelisk. Sunny’s orange hair seemed to act like a light within the dark of the night. Stream, controlled by the reigns of Sunny, trotted over meekly as Aurora and Paige approached from behind.

Skyler walked up to Sunny with a bright smile, the green beam’s light that poured from the obelisk reflecting onto Skyler’s face.

“I’m glad you made it back safely, Sunny-”

Sunny pushed past Skyler and to Samuel, who looked at her with soft eyes.

“So, what’s your genius plan on finding Tiffany?” Sunny asked, stopping and crossing her arms. Samuel felt a wave of warmth flow down his cold body, Sunny’s hair flickering like flames.

“Heat manipulation?” Samuel thought to himself, “I don’t see how that’s helpful.”

“We’re going to scout and look as far out as we can,” Samuel explained, looking out onto the horizon. He could barely see giant sequoia trees poking out.

“It shouldn’t be too hard. If her little book gives her enough knowledge, then she’ll be far better off than the others, right?”

“Not a bad idea, right?” Paige added on, glaring at Skyler, “I don’t think it’ll get anyone here hurt.”

“I’m sure it won’t,” Sunny replied, her head tilting back and her eyes darting back.

“Okay, but like, how we gonna do that?” Rick asked, tapping his book on his leg.

“Simple enough,” Samuel responded, looking up at the night sky, “I saw some weird bird thing flying in the sky. It looked really fast from down here. And it seemed large enough to fit at least one person.”

“Pteranodons?” Neddy said, “Hey, those are my favorite dinosaurs!”

“They’re not dinosaurs though,” Ruby spoke up.

“Huh?”

“They’re flying reptiles, not dinosaurs. Completely different,” Ruby argued.

“They ARE dinosaurs!” Neddy sneered, “They lived way back in the past, looked really scary, and were reptiles, just like you said! Dinosaurs!”

“Are not!”

“Are too!”

“Okay, shut up,” Aurora snapped, an annoyed look on her face. Rick looked back and forth between the two of them and looked like he had something to say about the matter.

Aurora sighed, “Do continue Samuel.”

“So… I was thinking we should tame at least one. We could get one on the way back,” Samuel replied.

“I like this plan a lot,” Sunny said, “Sensible and reasonable. Let’s do it.”

With Samuel’s plan set in stone, the expedition team began to make the small trek back home. But as they walked away from the metal platform, Samuel looked back and couldn’t help but feel as if the metal beam had something more to it.

And he also couldn’t help but feel like he was being watched.

As everyone traveled through the dark forest, a sudden animal cry pierced the air.

Rawk, rawkkk~!

“What was that?!” Skyler asked, on guard.

“I can’t see anything out here, even with Sunny’s hair it’s like my eyes are blindfolded!” Rick noted.

The scratching of wood together brushed everyone’s ears, and a flame was ignited. Everyone looked to the source and saw Ruby carrying a makeshift torch. The flame crackled softly, almost like a whisper.

“Better?” Ruby asked, her implant glowing.

“Better,” Rick said, giving her a thumbs-up. Neddy gasped and pointed at the noise-making creature.

“It’s a Pteranodon! My favorite dinosaur ever!” Neddy sarcastically rejoiced. Ruby shot daggers at Neddy.

“That’s what we’re looking for, right?” Aurora said.

“Yeah, it is,” Samuel replied, “It’s pretty vulnerable. We should create a plan to knock it out. I bet it’ll fly away pretty easily…”

“You’re totally right. But what should we do? Do you think we can get it trapped in the trees? Hold it down, perhaps?” Aurora asked.

“We could do that-”

Paige rolled her eyes, walked up to the Pteranodon, held her club back, and with one fell swoop slammed the club into its skull. It let out a squeak, collapsing to the floor, its tongue sprawling out and its breathing heavy. Its eyes were shut and it seemed unconscious.

“Did you just knock that thing out?” Aurora gasped, bewildered.

“Yeah. That was the plan, right?” Paige smirked.

“It was, but I didn’t expect it to be that easy!” Aurora objected.

“Take it from me, little valedictorian, not everything requires a plan,” Paige grinned, crouching down to look at the Pteranodon, “Some things ya just gotta go with the flow, ya know?”

“After all, not everything’s supposed to make sense.”

“Hm,” Samuel thought.

“So we’re going to have to feed it meat,” Neddy and Rick both said at the same time. Rick looked at Neddy with a sly smile, whispering “dino nerd” to him. Neddy glared at him.

“Well then, let’s get hunting,” Sunny said, taking her slingshot out. Paige twirled her club around, slamming it into her hand. Ruby hooked her torch on her belt and took her crossbow out, loaded with arrows.

“Us three shall go, girls only. We’ll hunt…” Paige looked around for a bit, then pointed at a fat pig with large tusks protruding out its face. It also had a short, stubby, elephant-like tusk, “That thing.”

Ruby aimed at the pig and closed one of her eyes, pressing onto the trigger and letting an arrow loose. It hit the pig and it let out a squeal, fleeing and letting its little legs take it away. The three began to chase.

As they followed the pig deeper into the forest, Sunny pelted the pig’s legs with rocks, slowing it down, and allowing Paige to run after it faster. As Paige approached the pig, she jumped forward and wrapped her arms around it, trapping it. It squirmed, trying to get free, but Paige was stronger than it seemed. As Paige wrestled with it, she wrapped her legs around its body and took her club out, raising it in the air and slamming it into the pig’s skull, crushing and killing it instantaneously.

Ruby and Sunny managed to catch up to Paige, slightly out of breath.

“Whew, that was tiring,” Ruby muttered, slowly heaving in and out. Paige let out a groan, crawling out from the bloody mess and wiping the splinters off her palms.

“Well we got it. That’s all that matters,” Paige said, putting her club away.

Suddenly, a stench hit their nostrils. A very powerful one at that. Paige gagged, fanning the air and plugging her nose.

“What is that gross air?” Paige choked. Sunny looked to the side to see a giant pile of dung sitting on the ground, flies surrounding it and bugs crawling out. She nearly vomited at the sight, turning away.

Ruby took her glasses off, folded them, and put them away in her pouch, letting out a murmur of surprise.

“That is one big pile of shi-”

“Hey, look at this!” Sunny burst into joy. She picked something small, around the size of someone’s hand, off the ground and showed it to Paige and Ruby. It was a baby version of the pig.

“Ew, get that thing away from me! It’s probably responsible for that mess it made over there!” Paige gasped, swatting Sunny’s hand away.

“Exactly why we should keep it. It’d be perfect for fertilizer! Maybe then I wouldn’t have to pick up so much…” Sunny said, scratching her chin, “I think we should keep it!”

“I suppose if you REALLY want to keep it, then go for it,” Ruby said with hooded eyes, “But we are NOT going to be parenting that thing, got it?”

“Alright alright, you won’t. But think of it as a long term investment. Sure enough we’ll have so many crops! Maybe someone back at camp knows how to cook, and will make something good.”

Ruby’s ears perked up at the mention of cooking.

“Cooking huh?” Ruby said, “Y’know what, maybe it’s not such a bad idea after all.”

Paige scoffed, hauling the small pig onto her shoulder and letting out a groan.

“Alright enough diddle-daddling. Let’s go now. I’m getting sleepy, and I wanna go back to camp already.”

With that the three girls made their way back to the others to tame the Pteranodon.

King of the Wyverns

Chapter 2

Ares stared in shock.

“Hi!” the onyc said again, really loud and cheerfully. “What’s a wyvern doing in here?”

“What the heck?” Ares backed away. “What the heck?” He’d only seen onyc in drawings by other wyverns that came back to the trench after a long travel, but the illustrations did not do the actual animal justice. Ares looked close at the onyc again. Yeah, really ugly.

“Hey, did ya hear me?” the onyc asked, losing some spunk. “Are you deaf or something?”

Ares recovered from his scare and gulped. “H-hi. I’m Ares and I’m actually waiting for a friend to get back. I will definitely leave if you want me to.” He talked faster as he went. “She should be back in a little! I can-”

The onyc cut him off. “Hey, slow down. I won’t bite. Unless I get too hungry!” The onyc started to laugh at his joke while all Ares could do is chuckle feebly and uncomfortably.

“Anyways, Ares,” the onyc said after he calmed down, “I’m Malston. Age is 1 year, male onyc!”

Ares blinked. “I don’t think it’s safe to give out all that info.”

The onyc, Malston, eyed Ares skeptically. “And it’s safe for a wyvern to be in an unknown cave in the middle of nowhere?”

Before Ares could answer, Malston flew to the top of the cave and hung upside down. “So…. what are ya doing here?”

Sighing, Ares started to speak, but then stopped himself. ‘For all I know, Hiro could’ve put a warrant on my head that Cleo and I don’t know about,’ Ares thought. ‘All Malston has to do is lead me somewhere secluded and bite me.’ Ares had heard somewhere that onyc had some disease that could kill you if you were bit.

“My friend and I were just flying around,” Ares explained deliberately. “We saw the sun setting so we decided to rest here in this cave.”

Malston looked around. “Where’s this friend? A lady or a man? Child or adult? Brother or sister?”

Ares started to get irritated. He was pretty sure he had earlier said SHE would be back in a little. And why would he be flying around with a child? Clearly, this onyc knew nothing. Ares shook his head.

Malston was still talking. “Because around night is when this giant monster thing comes out.” His voice goes low and mysterious. “It walks out of the pond not too far from here. He moans and groans, covered in slime, crying out for food. Legend says, his parents died when he was young and he doesn’t know how to care for himself. He only comes out on full or crescent moons.” Malston nodded to the entrance of the cave. “Go look at the moon.”

Ares tentatively walked out the cave and looked at the sky. A full moon shone brightly. “A full moon, Malston.”

“Better hope your friend comes back soon,” Malston hissed. “Or their dinner.”

That’s all Ares needed to hear. He flew out into the night, calling for Cleo as Malston closed his eyes and laughed to himself. “Silly wyvern. Don’t be so trusting.”

Heroes of pandora

Chapter 4

“You have got to be kidding me,” Caesar said “this is the creature you said could help us?!?” “Yup.” Said Nash. “I think he could be helpful.” Said Ron. “you would.” said Caesar. they were referring to a young kairuku, who was clearly (and literally) out of his element. He was just wandering around saying “HI IM PING!” to anyone who would listen, he had a shrill annoying voice, and he was grey instead of the usual black. “Nope let’s keep looking.” Caesar said turning away. “HI WHO ARE YOU?” Ping said running towards them. “Oh no he’s coming this way, Run!” Said Caesar. “Oh come on,” Ron said, pulling Caesar back “give him a chance.” “WHO ARE YOU GUYS?” “Hi Ping.” Said Nash “why do you always scream, it’s giving me a headache.” Asked Caesar. “Oh sorry i just get exited when I meet NEW FRIENDS!” Ping said with a huge grin. “Ughhh, how do you even know this guy Nash?” “Ahh it ‘twas a thrilling tale,” Nash said, “I was narrating random people, you know the usual day, then I say this little kairuku! He was asking a carno why he had beaks on the side of his head, whether he was brave, or foolish, I knew not, but-” “probably foolish” Caesar said. Nash glared at him. He didn’t like being interrupted, “ANYway! But I knew it would be a good show, the carno, enraged, at the thought of his horns being called beaks, charged, but Ping just jumped on his head and hugged it, the carno, then angrily thrashed his head back and forth, but Ping just said, “this is fun!” I didn’t see much of what followed, because I was laughing, but I saw the carno throw Ping off his head, Ping then said “WEEEE!” And hit into a tree, bounced off and said, “THAT WAS FUN! let’s go again!” The carno just starred for a second, then realizing that all the creatures in the forest where laughing, he then, awkwardly ran away, completely embarrassed, and Ping just said “where ya goin?” Then shrugged, and walked away. And that’s how I met Ping.” “That was the dumbest story I’ve ever heard..” said Caesar. Ron meanwhile was laughing thunderously, at the mental image of the carno’s embarrassment. “Sounds like it’s two to one Caesar.” Said Nash. “you don’t get a vote Nash, you new here.” Caesar said. Then he imagined getting chased by a giganotosaurus and throwing Ping at the giga to escape. “Hmm on second thought,” Ron said “ok Ping welcome to the team, ready to fight a dragon?” “I don’t know what any of you are talking about but I’m in!” Ping said “oh gosh.” Caesar said. “This is going to be a long trip..”

“Where the river runs red” (chap4)

Outside the building is a small patrol group all on raptors. One extra for bob. “We have orders to take you to the swamp front correct?” One of them asks. “Yes I do.” Bob replies as he mounts the raptor. The group begin to descend into the trenches as the ride to the front. The closer they get the more eerie it becomes. The sky is a dusty grey color and two months of war near a swamp has caused the trenches to become soggy and infested with compys. The war has also caused the soldiers pain. Many of them staring into space or trying to sleep on the soggy muddy ground. None speak. Soon enough the patrol reaches a ladder. “We drop you here. The loyalists have a trench half way in the swamp. We think it’s abandoned though. Probably digging in somewhere else.You continue on foot from here. May the oversear bless you safe passage.” The patrol leader says as bob climbs the ladder. And into the no mans land ahead.

A song of compys and gigas (chap4)

As bob wonders what in gods name he just got himself into, INV stands out from his throne room on the side of volcano. He is the lord of the sever and he knows taking him down will be a challenge to anyone. Ever since the last revolution a month ago against his rule, he has been living the high life. Nobody can touch him. But then he hears and argy land in front of the throne room. INV tenses up. He does not know who or what is on the other side of the door. All of a sudden one of INVs advisors come running into the room. He is out of breath. “ your... your majesty...” he pants. “The resistance... there.. there alive....” INVs mood changes. “alive? How long has it been a month? I do not think we have to worry. Don’t bother them for now...” “But... one of the govoners has been murderd and one of our ships is gone...” The advisor warns “We should probably just address this... we don’t know how strong they are...” “Fine.” INV answers back, “ Find them”

Hey, where’s live or die chap 6? Love it BTW!😁, please post it, I will check daily.
