Hey everyone! I'm starting my own fanfic about Fossil Fighters: Champions! This is my first fic, though so go easy on me. Also, it may take me a while to update because I have to balance school, my personal life, and writing this.

Main characters I will use:

Dina

Rupert

Todd

Pauleen

And maybe some of the other characters from FFC. No OC's. Yet.

Couples are DinaxRupert and ToddxPauleen.

I do not own the characters or any references to the FFC storyline. Those are owned by Nintendo. I only own the fic.

Anyways, on with the story!

Chapter one

My name is Dina. I won't tell you my last name, so don't ask. My best friend Todd and I became fossil fighters about 4 years ago after meeting a famous fighter named Joe Wildwest. We fought in his tournament, the Caliosteo Cup, and I won. Then Joe turned out to be an evil sorcerer named Zongazonga, I defeated him, and I think you know the rest. Along the way I met some new friends, Pauleen and Rupert. Todd has admitted to me that he likes Pauleen, and Pauleen has admitted to me that she likes Todd, but both are too shy to admit it to each other. Rupert and I have been boyfriend and girlfriend for about a year now. The two of us didn't get along at first, but we fell in love during the Cup.

"Come on, guys!" I shouted. We were hiking in the forest surrounding Treasure Lake and I was excited to see what was there.

"Calm down, Dina!" Todd shouted back. "Why are we even here?"

"To have fun!" I said.

"What's so fun about walking in a forest, anyways?"

"Todd?" said Rupert

"Yeah?"

Rupert smacked him across the face. "Learn to shut up once in a while!" he said.

"What was that for?!"

"Calm down, digadig!" Pauleen shouted. "Why can't you two ever get along?"

I facepalmed. "look, if you can't get along, I'll have my vivosaurs beat some sense into you both!"

Both of them looked at me like I was crazy and immediately shut up.

Those two are always this way. As much as I love Rupert, he really is a pain in the neck sometimes.

We kept walking for a while, and came to a clearing.

"Where do we go now, digadig?"

"I don't know, which way do you guys want to go?"

"Home!" Rupert and Todd both said at the same time.

"Ok…What about you, Pauleen?" She just stood there, frozen. "Uh, what's wrong?"

I turned around, and I saw a Coatlus heading straight for us.

"Pauleen, look out!" I ran towards her and knocked her down just in time to save her. The Coatlus missed us, but it turned around and dove again. I reached for my dino medal, but I dropped it and it rolled away. It was my favorite dino, Teffla, and it was the only one I had brought with me.

"I knew I should have brought more of them," I mumbled. The Coatlus was getting closer. Pauleen and I stood up and ran, but the Coatlus turned and kept chasing us.

Then, I heard Rupert scream. The Coatlus was targeting him now. I tried to help, but it was too late. The Coatlus hit him with its razor-sharp beak.

"NO!" I screamed. "RUPERT!

I finally found my medal and threw it. My Teffla easily defeated the Coatlus, but no medal appeared when it died. I ran over to Rupert.

"Rupert!" the Coatlus had struck him in the chest, and he was bleeding a lot.

"Guys, help me out!" I shouted. "We need to get him out of here!"

We made it out of the forest, and Rupert was still alive, miraculously, but he was barely conscious. A staff member noticed us and ran over.

"What happened?!" I explained the story. "We need to get him to the hospital, now!"

The staff member helped us get him to the hospital, but by that time he was no longer conscious. I was starting to question whether or not he would survive.

"Rupert…" I started to cry. He was in surgery, and they were trying to save him. He was in critical condition, and I was waiting to hear how he was doing. The doctor finally came in, but she had a sad look on her face.

"No… it can't be…" I said through my tears.

The love of my life was Rupert. We went through a lot together.

But now he was gone.

Sorry Rupert fans! What will Dina do now? How will Dina's friends react? Find out in the next chapter!
