Blaze dashed though the forest in a desperate attempt to get away from Dread. It was only a couple of hours
until sunset and she knew she would need to find a new home quickly or she would become a predator's dinner. And so she began her search. Suddenly, a large mass of rain clouds covered the sun blocking out the light. A large storm was on it's way and she knew she needed to find shelter. She spotted a small rocky cave and ran inside to hide. It was not stable but it would have to do. With a large yawn, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Meanwhile...
A adult Baryonyx thunders through the forest. He has black skin and his body is covered in spots and stripes of bright green, red, blue, purple, and yellow. He is known as Cosmo because of his strangely colored skin that looks like a giant, colorful cloud from space. The sky collides and creates a loud crash of thunder and it begins to rain. The Baryonyx spots a small rocky cave. He realizes it is to small for him but spots a small creature inside the cave that appeared to be asleep. Suddenly a large crack of thunder is heard and he looks up to see a giant lightning bolt striking down at the cave! The lightning hits a weak spot and knocks out a chunk of stone and the cave starts to wobble and he realizes it is about to fall on the creature inside! A chunk of rock falls on the creature's head making it unconscious. Instinctively, he reaches in with his head and quickly grabs the animal and pulls it out of the cave. Just when he pulls his head from the cave the cave collapses.
Blaze opens her eyes to see a huge carnivore in front of her and shrieks with terror. She turns to run to the cave she had slept in to see that it had collapsed. Realizing that the Baryonyx had actually saved her, she cautiously goes up to the carnivore and she watches as he bends down and nuzzles her gently. He raises his head up and bellows and suddenly five baby dinosaurs rush out of the bushes and nuzzle the Baryonyx. There is a Tyrannosaurus named Thunder, a Triceratops named Cera, a Pteranodon named Sky, a Oviraptor named Ruby, and another raptor like her that was named Storm. The Baryonyx tells Blaze his name is Cosmo and that they would not harm her. Thunder had black skin and yellow stripes covering his body. Cera had bright orange skin and emerald eyes. Sky had blue skin with white stripes. Ruby had pink skin with red spots on her body as well as a red crest on her head. And last but not least, Storm had bright amber eyes and grey skin with black, white, and blue stripes. She realizes that Cosmo must have rescued them and was taking care of them as of they were his own young. She was now one of them and was happy to be with others like her. The youngsters watched as Cosmo gently picked them up by the scruff of their neck and carried them to their new home. Eventually they came to a large cave system in the side of a mountain. Gently Cosmo set them down and the youngsters raced into the cave to play. Blaze raced after them to join in the fun and they all chased each other in a game of tag. She was instantly excepted as part of the family and they all played until sunset. The sun finally began to set and Cosmo walked over to a boulder beside the cave entrance and pushed it with his head blocking the entrance of the cave. The youngsters opened their jaws in large yawns and curled up and went to sleep.
Next morning the youngsters were up and play-fighting with each other. Cosmo removes the boulder that was blocking the cave and steps out. The youngsters stop playing and rush to his side with Blaze following her new friends. Blaze discovered that she has a great gift for making new friends and yesterday she became friends with Cera and the others and they cannot be separated. Blaze and the others squeal at Cosmo saying, "Cosmo we're hungry!" Or "I'm so hungry I could eat a Tyrannosaurus!" They all crowded around him and he led them to a river for their morning hunting lesson. Blaze and the others squealed with excitement and rushed out of the cave. "What will you teach us to hunt today Cosmo?" Ruby asked. Cosmo replied "Today you will learn to catch fish!" "You will try not to make to much noise because it will scare away the fish." Cosmo told them, "When you are trying to catch a fish you need to quickly hook a fish underneath its gills with your claw and it won't be able to escape." Ruby asked Cosmo if he could demonstrate on how to catch it and he happily agreed. The youngsters watched as Cosmo crept up to the river. Cosmo spotted a shoal of plump, juicy fish and waited patiently until a fish came close enough that he could grab it. A giant fish swam up to the bank not knowing it was about to meet its end. Seizing his chance, the Baryonyx swiped at the fish and caught it by snaring it with his long, curved claw. He pulled the heavy fish out of the water and let the youngsters have a taste. Cera sniffed the fish and wrinkled her beak in disgust. "I'm not going to eat that!" Snorting, Cera trotted off to find her own food. In the meantime all of the others were gobbling the fish with greed. Blaze told Cosmo that it tasted good, but she still liked to eat meat. The only one of the group that was craving it was Sky. "How could you NOT like this?!" "It tastes like a slice of heaven!" Sky said. The others rolled their eyes and went off with Cosmo to find another meal and following them was Sky dragging his fish. Cosmo spots a injured Corythosaurus and slinks in the trees to ambush it. He suddenly dashes out with the others behind him except for Blaze. They kill it by biting its neck and feast on the carcass. Blaze however spotted a Compsognathus and was going to try to ambush it like Cosmo did. She may be just a hatchling but she has strength and intelligence. She slinks up to the dinosaur waiting for the moment to attack. She sees it lay down about to sleep and she dashes out of the bushes. Using the element of surprise, she pounces on it kicking with her sickle claws. She lands on it and bites its neck killing it instantly. She trots back to where the group was feasting with her head held high and her prey in her jaws. She stops in front of them and drops the dino on the ground. The group turns to stare at Blaze and squeal with excitement seeing she was the first to catch her own prey. They all rush to her side dancing with joy and even Cosmo was surprised. He came over and nuzzled her like her father used to do with her bringing back happy memories of when her family was still alive. Because Blaze caught the prey she gets to have the first bite. She dips her head and rips off a large strip of bloody flesh and gobbles it up. She licks her lips and says, "It tastes amazing! You have to try it!" Cera finally came back with a beak full of leaves lays down to eat them. She notices that Blaze caught her first prey and gives her a friendly nudge. Storm and the others came for their share. Storm bent down beside Blaze and tore of a chunk of flesh and goes off to another area to eat it. Soon they have all had their fill and with full bellies and along with Cosmo head back to the cave for a nap. Cosmo closes the entrance with a rock and falls asleep. Blaze too closes her eyes and realizes that she is now with her new family and sleeping in her new home.
