I knew they weren’t passive, but it didn’t matter in the situation I was in. When you can’t get thru your door because the rhino giraffe is shaking the ground too much, do not let that giant rhino giraffe bring its drunk friend. Do not. Drunk friend is not YOUR friend. Drunk friend is not YOUR TAMES friend. Drunk friend is angry. Drunk friend is violent. Rip Nueva, my reincarnated parasaur. Found one identical to my previous one, who had been the sole surviving dino

of a spino incident. Taken out by raptors a few days later. When I found the new one, the chalico killed us both.

The Obelisk

I noticed someone wrote to me in the Snail section and my heart stopped! Thank you so much for reading these! 😊

-Chapter 23-

She’s going to help us.

Forest smiled up at the Velanosaur, and she grinned back down. “You’ll really help us?”

“Of course, little Forest,” Ripper said breezily. “With everything. Where are we heading to next?”

“To the Dark Forest,” Spark said. “Hopefully we’ll find the fifth carnivore there.”

“Ahh, yes you will,” Ripper said. Forests heart sped up. She knew so much! He wondered why the Basislk never mentored Ripper.

Because she was in a hurry. Forest thought. Aaaaand she didn’t tell me that much anyways, just to be cryptic and not mess with her prophecy too much. Hmm.

The Basilisk—Peeri—must have made the prophecy entirely herself. Searched all the futures of different carnivores and found us as the ones that would actually succeed at saving the world. Wow.

“We will?” Rust asked. “We’ll actually find the fifth in the Dark Forest?” Oh, tell me it’s not gonna be a Terror Bird. Bleergh,” he shook himself from head to tail.

Ripper gave Rust a calculating look, something new in her dark eyes. “Everyone, if I may, I’d like to have a word with Forest here.”

“Why?” Crimson demanded.

“It’s alright, we’ll be back. I just have a few questions.”

“It’s OK guys.” Forest said, turning to follow Ripper. “I’ll be right back!”

He caught up with Ripper soon after, walking hastily by her side. He looked up to her. “What are we discussing?”

“Your friends,” Ripper began, “are they trustworthy?”

“You would know,” Forest tried to joke. “You meet up with th—Peeri all the time.”

“That’s true,” Ripper laughed. “It’s hard to find her in the caves, since she never comes out. But she told me to beware of certain carnivores. I just want to make sure. What is their position with Terror Birds?”

“That the Terror Birds rule the Dark Forest, and are trying to take over all of Fjordur.” Forest said.

“What?” Ripper exclaimed. She faulted to a stop and looked down to Forest. “No, no, no, Forest, you’ve got it all wrong.”

“What?” Forest sat down.

“I knew it,” Ripper hissed under her breath. “You’re friends, are trying to brainwash you.”

“No they’re not,” Forest said.

“And these Ben brainwashed as well,” The giant carnivore looked into Forests eyes. “New plan: you four are coming with me.”

Forest blinked, staring into her fathomless eyes. “Wait—wh—would Peeri want that?”

“I have a few friends in the Meadows,” Ripper went on, ignoring him. “We’re going to need to show you some things.”

“No—we just came from the meadows!” Forest yelped. “We can’t go all the way back!”

“This is what Peeri was talking about!” Ripper yelled. “You are all coming with me, and we will make sure you all learn the truth. The side you should really be on.”

“What side? What side?” Forest jumped up on all fours, lashing his tail. “Which side is Peeri on?”

“I’ll explain everything Forest,” Ripper said, nudging him with her tail. “Peeri will be there.”

This was almost enough to make Forest completely change his mind and run for the meadows. But something was tugging at Forests brain. Something wrong.

Something

very

very

W r o n g.

“Hold on,” Forest said slowly. “You—You said Peeri never leaves the caves.”

Ripper chuckled, amused. “No I didn’t.”

“Yes, you did.” Forest looked up to her. Youu said she never leaves the caves.”

“We will—we’ll we’ll go see her,” Said Ripper.

Prices were falling together, pulling and tugging at Forests mind. “Ripper,” he whispered. “Are we on the same side?”

“Yes,” she answered with a smile. “Of course, Forest, what’s up with you?”

“Do you really know Peeri?” He asked.

“What—I—yes I know Peeri. We meet each other all the time. Like i said—“

“She talks all about me.” Forest finished. “You mentioned. But you also mentioned that only YOU visit her. Not the other way around.”

“You misunderstood,” Ripper growled.

“No, I didn’t. It’s too bad I’m such a good listener. If I weren’t, I wouldn’t have noticed that you asked what our names were.”

“Just to make sure,” Ripper said, her expression changing.

“And you fumbled with Rusts name,” Forest continued, “because you were trying to remember what I had said.”

“Forest,” Ripper growled, “you’ve got it all wrong.”

“And now you’re trying to send us away from the place you SAID the fifth carnivore would be. Why would you do that?”

“FOREST STOP,” Ripper snarled.

“I’m sorry,” Forest said. He turned invisible, and Ripper let out a cry of fury. “I can’t trust you.”

And he ran for his friends.

To warn them.

To save them.

Rippers roars of fury followed Forest as he ran, but he was faster.

And if Forest was quick enough, he could save them from whatever Ripper planned on doing.

Hope’s Cry

Chapter Eighteen

Buddy opened his eyes. He was still sitting right next too the Kong mansion. But Cusco was gone. Buddy stood up. He heard the Kong Mansion’s door open then close. Buddy turned around too see Mrs. Kong talking too another Gigantapithecus. “Ah… Here he is! Buddy this is Joe! Joe this is Buddy!” Mrs. Kong said. “Joe is my eldest son. He’s very excited too meet you!” Mrs Kong said excitedly. “Yes I’m definitely excited!” Joe said sarcastically with a fake smile plastered across his face. “Ma’am? I’m gonna have too take Buddy too see Dr. Yang!” Cusco said from behind a barrel. Buddy twisted around too look at Cusco. Then Buddy felt it… the sharp pain in his back. “I… Think I’ll just sit herrrrrrrrrre.” Buddy slurred. Then everything went black. “Aaron!! Come on we got too leave!” Buddy heard someone shout. Then he opened his eyes. He was standing in the remains of a small city. Fire was falling from the sky. Then in the midst of it all was a boathouse. It was connected too the city by a small catwalk. Standing in the doorway of the boathouse, was a human. The human had short black hair, a pale face, and blank white eyes. His skin was cracked around the eyes. The man was shouting too teenager who was running towards the boathouse. And standing in the town square was a man with a red British coat, a white wig, and blue eyes… He was also very short. The short man stuck out the handle of his sword in the teenager’s path. The teenager ran headfirst into the handle, knocking him out cold. “Is Aaron aboard?” The man with white eyes asked a kid with blue eyes, brown hair, and a worn black coat. “Yes father…” The girl replied sadly. Her eyes filled with tears as the man with white eyes broke the catwalk causing the boathouse too sail into the distance. Buddy blinked, and he wasn’t in a bombed city anymore. Instead he was laying in a white room…

Well next chapter in Cnidaria!! Sorry this chapter took so long too release! Pls read Ben’s story in the aerial filter backwards! Sorry this was short!!

The Terrible Demise of Tortuga

Chapter twenty seven.

Captain Swan watched Jay, Jack, Aaron jr., and Eric practice sword drills. Jay was pared up with Aaron jr and Jack was paired with Eric. “Nice block Aaron. Jay….pathetic!” Captain Swan spat. “Jack, Eric, pathetic! Try harder!” Captain’s Swan’s word of disapproval or disappointment was”pathetic!”. Jay was not as good with swords as Aaron and Jack and Eric were almost evenly matched. Finally after using sword,using fists, and lot of “pathetic!” Josh called for a break. “Ugh! That was tiring!” Aaron groaned. “Buck up!” Josh said. Jay wiped sweat of his forehead. “After several months of training, finally I think y’all are ready! Y’all training are over. “Wait what?!” Jack exclaimed. “You heard me…you all have learned y’all’s lessons therefore our training has ended.”

Jack and Jay headed home disappointed. “I wish we could continue.” Jack said. “Yeah but there’s nothing else left to learn.” Jay said. They went to their house. Their father and mother were already there because they had no work for the day. Arianna was in the kitchen humming to herself while making a loaf of bread. Aragorn was seated at the dining room table, staring off into space. “Hi dad.” Jay said. No answer. Jay whistled. “Dad?” Jack asked. Aragorn made no movement or sign he had heard them. They stepped in front of their father. Aragorn’s eyes were pitch black and emotionless. “Uh dad?!” Jack said, then waved his hand in front of Aragorn’s face. Aragorn blinked suddenly, his eyes returning to normal. “You okay dad?” Jay asked. “Yeah.” He said gruffly. In the kitchen Arianna was still humming cheerfully. “Where are Josephina and Jaquin?” Jay asked. “They’re taking a nap.” Aragorn replied. The door opened and Emma danced in. “I just came back from being with Andrew. It was so wonderful! We stopped by the bakery and got us some cupcakes!” Emma said dreamily. "Did you get US anything?” Jay asked sarcastically. Emma put a sack on the table. “Here, split it up!” She said then bounded down the hall to her room. Arianna smiled and gave Aragorn a look. “Yes sir, that’s a girl in love.” Arianna told her husband. Jack and Jay made retching sounds.

Dodo Tales (Ep23 S1) crystal lands person, i love your series, (I haven't read wings of Fire, so I don't get the references) you inspired me, even though my stories are very different.

"I want to go home! I miss sitting in my shack peacefully, and drinking tea." Eden said, obviously exaggerating his British Accent. Large doors opened, and they heard a growling sound. The crowd cheered. "Let the battle commence!" Yelled a man in a golden seat. Jerry recognized the voice. "It's their leader, the one who caught us" he said to the others. The gaurds handed them pikes and flak armor and ran. With a crash, the beast ran out into the open. "He's a juvenile Giga" Ares said "we don't stand a chance!" It roared at them. "run for it!!!" Screamed Rick. "We'll be safe beyond the doors!" They ran, sweat pouring down their faces. Surprisingly, Eden was the fastest. He slid under the Giga, got up and ran. it ignored him. Ares and Jerry were next. they made it. Rick however, was not so lucky...

Heroes of Pandora

Chapter 27 (starts in allo then through all creatures in alphabetical order)

“So is it done can we go back to normal life now?” One of the gigantopithicus said. “No we still gotta stop Salizar and his apocalypse.” Caesar said.

They climbed back up to the floating islenes, the sea serpents and bones stayed behind, (they aren’t climbers) when they reached the top they met with the rock drakes, the rock drakes where sent before the battle to track down Salizar, they now stood in front of the group. “Did you find him?” Caesar asked. “No, he’s gone.. we found this traitor though,” Emerald said, turning so they could see a featherless rockdrake being held by two other drakes. “Tell them what you told us!” She said. “Ok ok! Salizar is crazy! he activated the doomsday, the entire ark is going to be obliterated!” The drake said. “How do we stop it!” Ron said angrily. “I don’t know! All he said was it can only be stopped from the terminal on the red obelisk!” He said. “Alright well guess we better head to the red obelisk.” Nash said. “Blimey! But we just climbed up here!” One of the gigantopithicus said.

(Short one I know, but it seems like a good stop point, next one should be plenty long)

My dad and I built our base next to one of these thinking it was friendly, but it started throwing poop whenever we tried to go out the door. After many attempts at killing it with hatchets (it was our first base on that world) eventually we had to move.
