Author's notes:
Hello!I'm Stormtracer Carefulclaw,the author of this story,who has a few things to say.
First of all,thank you HK for posting this up for me!
Second,I own Stormtracer,Reo,and pretty much every character that appears in this story.I DO NOT own Dinotopia,Will,Cirus,Oodin(did I spell his name right?),any other characters I say I don't own,and Mr. Gurney's inspiring ideas.Remember,this is called FANfiction for a reason.
Third,if you happen to visit the Official Dinotopia Message Board,you would know more about this story and the characters.
Here it is(remove spaces):

And finally the story
"I hoped it was,for then her troubles would be over.Oh!if men were merciful,they would shoot us before we came to such misery."
-Black Beauty,Anna Sewell
Arc dropped to his knees,shocked at the carnage around him.
"Mother?Father?.......Sister?"No answer.
He heard a blood-curling shriek of pain,and cautiously walked over towards the source only to see his mother.
She was badly wounded,fatally from what he could see.
"Mother......."He fought the urge to cry.Crying was for weaklings.
what does it matter now?He thought.My clan's dead.
"Take this....."His mother managed to whisper,handing him a yellow 'bandana',or whatever the humans called it.
"Mother......your going to be okay."He hated seeing her like this.The mother he'd known had always been strong and imposing presense.Not the poor pathelic mauled body in front of him.
"Don't delude yourself."She smiled weakly."I want you to go to the mainland....become 'civilised' or whatever they call it.I don't want you to die to.Now go."
"I can fight!I'll rip out they're hearts for this!I'll-"
"GO!"She weakly pushed him towards the coast.
"Mother......"He said softly.She pointed with a shaking hand towards the coast,then her hand fell and she closed her eyes.
Arc couldn't scream,couldn't cry,couldn't do anything.How could she?She left him all alone!
Sadly,he buried them all then gathered up his things and headed towards the coast.
"I'll get revenge for you Mother.I will."
Reo woke up,shilvering.
Trying to grasp what the now-fading dream was about.But it vanished before he could.
All he could remember was death.....someone had died.Someone very......important.
Shaking his head,Reo got out of his bed of leaves and headed out for walk.
He go and ask his mate about it,but she was asleep and she hated being waken up at an unholy hour in the morning just because of a nightmare.
"You had a nightmare to?"Tsura(a Dienonychus he'd adopted)asked.
"Yes.I'm just taking a walk to try and refresh my memory."
And so they walked out near the edge of the Bigclaw territory,unaware of the green eyes that followed them.
"And then I woke up."Reo finished.
"Really?That sounds like something I went through....."
A snarl snapped them to attention,and Reo suddenly realized they were past the Bigclaw borders.
A black arrow just barely missed him,hitting the tree next to him.He turned.
A raptor in a black cloak held a bow,his expression hidden under the hood.
"Next time I will not miss."The figure stated coldly.
"Who are you?"Reo managed.
"Arc Aedoloa,you murderer."
"Murderer?What are you talking about?"An arrow hit in the arm.Reo ignored the pain and blood.
"By the way,my arrows are tipped with a special paralyzing potion.Temporary,but still."The figure looked up and smiled.
Reo noted the war-paint on his face.It looked like he was wearing a skull.
His arm started to hurt,and he felt sluggish.Reo half-heartedly swiped at Arc,but his claws missed by two feet.He heard Tsura scream.
Arc again reguarded him with a cold,calculating smile.
"Let's see the great Reo overcome this!"Arc drew his sword(only one side had a blade).
With that,he swiped at Reo.
