Protectors of Pandora

Chapter 4 ~the deathworm dunes~ (Perfect creature section 😂)

They all turned to the right, shocked and surprised. “who are you?!” Jaxz said. The old vulture who was sitting on a dead tree, looked at him, “names jeffff.” he said. “Jeff?” Jaxz said. “No jeffff!” Jeffff said. “Jeff-ff?” Jaxz said. “Yup, Jeffff.” The vulture said. “Oh.. kay..,” Ceasar said. “You said this place is called hades?” He continued “yup.” Jeffff said, Jeff looked at the volcanoes, the smoke seeping from them was slowing, and the sky was starting to clear. “You should get going, it’s almost sky time..” Jeff said. “Sky time? You mean day?” Jaxz said. “It’s always day here, it’s only dark when the smoke from the volcanoes covers the sky.. that’s why we call it sky time and smoke time.. trust me you might breath better during sky time, but you’ll die of heatstroke if yeh don’t get to the oasis.”

Jeffff said. “Where is this oasis?” The chief said. “It’s in that ravine over yonder —he gestured in front of them— I doubt you’ll make it though.. well, maybe that giant onyc over there.” Jeff said. “Hey! Im not a filthy onyc!” Jaxz said. “Point is if ya don’t got wings ya ain’t making it through the deathworm dunes.. good luck though.” Jeff said, he unfolded his wings and started flying towards to oasis.

They marched through the dunes, they didn’t see any so called deathworms, or any other creatures. When they where halfway through the desert Caesar said. “So does every creature on the ark hide at this oasis during the daytime? And if so how often do you think day is?” “Better question, how hot is it gonna get down here if even the desert creatures are hidin..” the chief said. “Do you see that?” One of the gigantopithicus said. “See what?” The Chief said. Then a deathworm burst out of the sand under the gigantopithicus, he was flung to the side unconscious, “birch!” The chief yelled. then the deathworm looked at him and started towards him. “Guys what’s that!” Jaxz said. A cloud of sand was rushing towards them at rapid speed. “It’s more worms!” Caesar said. “I don’t think so.” Bones said. As the cloud got closer they could see spikey plates and scales, almost forming a fin, and just as the deathworm was about to lunge for the Chief the fasolasuchas burst out of the sand, grabbing the deathworm in its jaws and instantly killing it, the fasola threw the worm to the side and looked at the group snarling with rage. ~to be continued~

Writers note—

I know the fasola isn’t in game yet and we don’t know if it hunts deathworms, though it was hinted that it does, and also c’mon it’s a desert/volcanic ark, did you think I wasn’t gonna add this awesome beast eventually.
