When i first started, i took an egg off the ground thinking nothing would happen (i took eggs off the ground all the time, i guess i was only picking up nice Dino’s eggs). Then 3 of these started chasing me. I forgot to tell my pets to follow me so all my dodos and a *insert dino that you get a saddle for at level 12, the one with that mow hawk?*.Noob me ran into my house and thought that would save me. They began to destroy my house and i died. Luckily my dino pets were out of reach, and they seemed to forget i took their egg when i respawned. Plz, dont pick up random eggs, especially when you’re not prepared for what you’re getting yourself into.

The Snake Fight- Fan fiction

So a while back, I decide to tame a carbonemys. After stuffing it full with berries, it became my best bud Beedo. When it was tamed, I decided to craft a saddle. When I got the engram for cementing paste, though, I needed chitin or keratin. You can get chitin from meganeuras, and you can find those in the swamp.

Beedo wasn’t far behind when I made it to the swamp. Just then, the purple pulse of torpidity began as two titanoboas slithered around us. But when I was knocked out, I wasn’t killed. When I woke up, I noticed the corpses of four boas surrounding me. But they weren’t the only ones.

Beedo, my loyal tame hadn’t been at my side for very long. But if he hadn’t been there, I would have already been killed by the snakes.

RIP Beedo 😭

The Terrible Demise of Tortuga

Chapter twenty three.

Over the next days Emma hung out with Andrew most of the time. “Honestly, it’s like we don’t have a sister anymore.” Jack told Eric. They had just finished school for today and as always they were hanging out in the town square. ((I guess I shouldn’t use the term “hanging” since the hanging booth is in the two square. LOL) They looked over toward Emma and Andrew. Andrew said something they couldn’t hear and Emma laughed. She tucked a lock of her dark red hair behind her ear then said something in reply. Then she laughed again. “Ugh.” Jay said. “I can’t bear to watch this.” “Right Eric?” Jay asked. No reply. “Uh Eric?” The twins looked at Eric. Eric was not even paying attention to them he was staring a Elizabeth with his mouth hanging open slightly. Jack whistled. “Heelllooo? Earth to Eric?” Jack said. Eric looked up startled. “Let me guess, you weren’t even listening.” Jay said. “Um I was-I mean… no I wasn’t.” Eric replied blushing. “Never mind. I mean look at them, Emma’s so obsessed with him. She’s barely at home anymore because she’s always with… him.” Jack said.

Emma stood right next to the school house talking to Andrew. Andrew leaned against the schoolhouse. “So Emma, I know this is a little early but I was wondering…do you wanna go out with me? To dinner that is.” Andrew asked nervously. Emma smiled, but didn’t say anything bc she was speechless. Andrew took this for a no. “Sorry…um..I wasn’t trying to rush anything or…I’m sorry I just..” “Wait, wait, wait, no! I mean yes! Yes I wanna go with you!” Emma said. Andrews face brightened. “Oh I thought you meant no!” He said. Emma laughed and shook her head. “I would love to go with you to dinner.” She said. “We’ll it’s gonna have to be a very early dinner because we don’t want to get caught before lights out. I know a great place we’ll just need to bring food…” He trailed off because three people walked up. It was Michael but this time he had brought reinforcements. His brothers Mike and Mickie. “Hi Emma, darling.” Michael said once again ignoring Andrew. “Seeing as you don’t have any plans tonight, what would u say if me and you went on a date? Huh? I’ve got a REAL fancy place for dinner. In fact it’s at our manor!” Michael asked. “Actually… I do have plans for tonight…” Emma began but Michael interrupted her. “But you’re willing to cancel them? Oh how sweet! Perfect! We’ll have dinner and guess what? You don’t have to bother with being late after lights out because I’m the mayor!” Michael exclaimed. Andrew’s face darkened with anger at Michael.

Next chapter coming up soon. Thank you guys for y’all support!

What I did was when I was around level 16 I got a bunch of mejoberries and I just punched it with my fist. I lost quite a bit of health but I ended up taming it! It started at level 7 and disappeared at level 28. before Blu disappeared she saved me from 4 raptors all at once and two Sarcos before. I was running for my life because this place was overrun with raptors when I realized I didn’t know where Blu was. I whistled and whistled but she never answered. I never got a message that said she died so she still might be alive!

I had a carbenomys called tanky Dave once. He was my second tame on the island and in the whole game.

I was hunting dilos on the beach when I accidentally hit a trike. There were two after me, 1 level 19 and 1 level 36.

I ran and ran whilst tanky held them back. He killed the level 19 but got killed by the level 36.

I have a grave next to my house now, next to where I used to put snappy Dave (see Spino page),

1 like = 1 rip for Dave.

The Obelisk

-Chapter 19-

Talons thumped on the ground as Marsh ran and ran.

His heart beat hard in his chest. He panted heavily, hearing the roaring of the predators chasing him.

But they won’t catch me. They won’t! I haven’t survived this long just to get killed by a bunch of insipid Ravagers!

He leaped over a fallen tree, hoping to slow down the Ravagers. At least five were right on his tail; the other three were falling behind.

Hah! He swerved left to smack one with his tail, then jumped passed two more.

One Ravager tried to pounce onto his back, but Marsh rolled right and kicked her in the face. “You can’t catch me!” Marsh yelled. “Stupid dogs! No one can outrun the mighty baryonyx!”

Some of the Ravagers exchanged exasperated looks to one another, but kept chasing him. Shoot. More Ravagers came from his left. The one in the lead was barking orders, trying to herd Marsh towards

another Ravager.

And then Marsh spotted a lake far ahead, and he kept running. Once he reached the edge of the water, he dove in.

A few Ravagers dove after him, but most of the others skidded to stop, growling at the sight of the water.

The lead Ravager with the missing swam up to his side, his claws outstretched. Marsh roared out a flurry of bubbles into his face, lashing out with his back legs. Blood Eddie’s through the water from the two predators.

And then the Ravager lunged forward in a cloud of bubbles and sunk his teeth into Marsh’s shoulder. He let out a roar of pain and fury.

But as the Ravager bit down, his eyes twitched and bursts of bubbles erupted from his nostrils. With a choking noise, the Ravager hightailed for the surface of the water, desperate for air.

Marsh turned the opposite direction and leaped out of the water with a snarl.

Then stopped.

“We’ll, well, we’ll,” said a voice from the trees, stomping from behind the Ravagers that surrounded Marsh. “You’re a fighter, aren’t you?”

A dark blue Wyvern with giant half ripped wings emerged from the forest, looking huge conspired to the Ravagers in front of him. He smiled down at Marsh. “This is the carnivore causing all the trouble?”

“Yes,” hissed a Ravager, baring her teeth.

“Hm. Well, before we take him in, I have a few questions for him.”

“Of course, sir.”

The Wyvern lowered his head to meet Marsh’s eyes. “Where are the five predators?”

“The Who?” Marsh asked.

“Five carnivores wandering acrossed the land,” the Wyvern said. “Have you seen them?”

“Why no,” hissed Marsh. “Of course not. I’ve been stuck in a cave for the last week, so, if these five are new, I couldn’t have.”

“Caves?” The Wyvern echoed. “What caves?”

“A cave where a stupid basilisk trapped me under some rocks!” He snarled back. “About south of here.”

The Wyvern glanced at the Ravagers, then looked back to Marsh, his eyes glinting. “A Basilisk trapped you?” He whispered.

“Y—yeah,” what does this dragon want with me? “Why? Is she important?”

“Yessss,” the Wyvern hissed. A grim smile spread acrossed his face. “It appears this Baryonyx will be useful. Bind him.”

Heroes of Pandora

Chapter 23

There was a knock on the door “come in.” the deep voice of the dragon echoed. The door opened and Salizar entered, “I have news..” Salizar said. “What is it?” The dragon questioned. “The creatures are planning a rebellion, they want to stop our plan and kill you.” He answered. “What shall we do Father?” The dragon asked. “What we do Apex, nothing.. we play into their hands.” Salizar said. “What?!?” The dragon said surprised. “Why would we do that?” “Because it will give them a false sense of security.. and distract them long enough for me to complete hacking the ark,” Salizar said, “I must warn you though, they have enlisted the help of the giganotosaurus.” “Hah I could gut that theropod with one talon!” The dragon said boastfully. “Then do so, anything to distract them and thin their ranks..,” Salizar said, “so how is the digging going?” “It took a wile to find the spot, but my rock drakes have unearthed the terminal.” The dragon said. “Good.. now all we must do is stall.” Salizar said “Muhahahahahahahahaa.” the dragon laughed. “What are you doing..” Salizar said. “Uhm, evil laughing..” The dragon said. “Well stop it’s annoying..” Salizar said.

Hey guys here’s the next chapter! And thx Ben for telling me that. I never clarified Dawn’s species. Dawn is a quetzal. I hope this helped!

Hope’s Cry

Chapter Fourteen

“Kong?” Buddy asked. “Yes, Mara Kong.” Mara said. “Uh… sure we would love too stay.” Buddy said. He motioned for his friends too come over. They walked up too him. Dawn looked at Mara. “Who is this?” Dawn asked Buddy. “Mara Kong, she invited us too stay with her tonight.” Buddy replied. “Our housekeeper, Miranda Boots will show you your rooms.” Mara said as she walked towards a mansion nearby. Radar ran towards the mansion. He seemed too be muttering too himself. “What’s his problem?” Mara asked. Then Buddy heard it, ticking. Like a clock slowly counting down. Buddy looked towards the mansion. Then one of the battlements crumbled into tiny little pieces as the bomb that sat on the bottom of it exploded. There was a high pitched scream as the squirrel started running around and shouting: “SHE’S HERE! SHE’S COME FOR ME!!!!!” “Who’s here?” A Rex nearby asked fearfully. “THE GREAT LIZARDBEARD!!!” The squirrel shouted. There was a loud rumbling as an army of Gigantapithecus ran into the city.

Well that was all for Chapter fourteen. Next chapter in Carcharodontosaurus!
