Chapter one- Spinosaurus Invasion
Nick, a young Velociraptor, wasn't like the others. She never ate meat, but instead, leaves! Her mother had always told her about stories of huge monsters and a mysterious creature that took dinosaurs and they would never return. Nikki's favorite story was that of the sail-back monsters. However, they only resided in a far away land across the sea. Nick's mom also told her about a legendary valley, one that was untouched by raptor kind. "Mommy, tell me about the great valley again!" Nick asked for one more bedtime story. "Okay, but this is the last time. And maybe someday you'll tell it to your child. The great valley, a beautiful place, was long ago inhabited by long necks. Then, other plant eaters came along. They fought and ravaged the dream valley. But, over time, they joined together in peace and harmony. It is said that the great valley still exists, but untouched by our kind. Maybe you'll be the first raptor to find and live in the great valley. Now sweet dreams, Nikki…" The next morning, Nick saw the beast in her nightmares. A huge, sail back monster. It swatted the young raptor with its tail and sent her flying. She then hit a tree and passed out, never to see anyone in the pack ever again. She woke up to ash and dust, and sat there crying. No, not only because of her wound, but her loss. The monster destroyed everything. "Mother! Mother!" She called out. "Nick?" A voice called out. "Mother? Where are you?!" She called back. "Over here… Nick... You... Were… Never a... Sharptooth…. You are… a… Long claw…" After that, she died. I am a Long Claw? Nick thought. But she couldn't stay here forever. Nick had to leave. But where would she go? "I'll have to go to the great valley." She decided. My idol, Velocia, did. She thought, retracing the events that lead to this day. The walk across the desert would be treacherous, and she knew this. "And I don't know anyone who has ever been to my destination… This journey would be longer and harder than I thought!" Nick had to go through the miles of treacherous desert. Then she remembered that Velo, her friend, had gone through the same desert over a month ago! "Maybe I could find him… Oh well! It's worth a shot!" Nick had made up her mind, she had to find Velo! She searched for several hours, and didn't ever find her friend. But, she did find a luxury oasis with plenty of leaves. She dreamed that night about all of that day being a horrid nightmare. The following day, Nick found that she was a lot closer to the great valley than expected. She also found Velo, but to a horrible misfortune.
