A.N. This is the second chapter folks. I know that the first one was rushed, but I think I put in something that gives it development, I hope. Well anyway, here's the second chapter. Enjoy.


In a snowy field in Tundratown, Dr Ryan Panton was following the dinosaur tracks to a big hole which led to some underground tunnels. He got changed into hiking equipment and was standing at the entrance.

"Don't worry Marcus, I'm coming," Panton promised as he was about to go down into the hole, until he heard a voice from behind him.

"You mean we're coming," The voice corrected him. Panton turned around to see Nick and Judy wearing hiking gear. Judy was wearing a, waterproof jacket, buttoned shirt and trousers while Nick was dressed up like Indiana Jones, even wearing a matching hat. They were also both carrying rucksacks

"Do you really have to wear that?" Judy asked Nick.

"Trust me Carrots, this is the proper attire," Nick replied with a smirk while adjusting his hat.

Panton then approached the two.

"I thought I told you I was going alone," Panton hissed at them.

"Well, tough I'm afraid," Judy commented while crossing her arms.

"Yeah, Marcus is our friend," Nick also added. "And what kind of mammals would we be if we didn't help him."

"I'm telling you, go back into town and let me handle this," Panton demanded to them, which they ignored.

"Yeah, that's going to happen," Nick said as he and Judy made their way down the hole.

"You two saw that thing, this is going to be dangerous!" Panton exclaimed to them, but they ignored him again.

"Talk to the paw!" Nick replied as he and Judy went down.

"Great, now I'll have to deal with these bone brains," Panton groaned to himself as he followed them down.


Underneath the passage was an ice cavern like area. There was ice on the ceiling and there was snow on the ground.

"Pretty creepy," Nick commented on the cave. "Yet cool at the same time." Judy rolled her eyes.

Nick, Judy and Ryan kept walking, until Judy heard something.

"Somethings coming," Judy realised.

The three then took defensive positions, ready to attack whatever came out. The saw whatever Judy heard, but to their surprise, it was their co-worker Officer Daniel Mchorn (a male rhino). He was also wearing hiking gear as well.

"Mchorn, what are you doing here?" Judy asked her co-worker.

"I'm here to help find Marcus as well," Mchorn proclaimed which surprised Nick, Judy and Ryan.

"What did Chief Bogo say?" Nick asked, which made Mchorn nervous.

"Well, he thinks I'm at a last-minute funeral, so he let me take a leave," Mchorn explained.

"You lying to the Chief, who would've guessed from you," Nick stated with a smirk.

"Great, now I have to deal with three officers," Panton complained to himself.

"Make that four," an unknown voice called out. The group turned around and saw a female elephant. It was another cop at their precinct, Officer Francine Pennington. She was also wearing the same thing as the others.

"You came along too Pennington?" Nick asked the elephant.

"Well, yeah," Pennington answered. "Can't leave Marcus with that ugly lizard."

"Then let's stop talking and move," Panton suggested fiercely to them.

The walked until the saw a bit of cave and they went towards it. While walking, they saw two figures up ahead. It was two more Officers at their precinct. Officers Theresa Prowlson (a female tiger) and Officer Vincent Snarlov (a male Polar Bear). They also had hiking gear.

"Great, two more officers to deal with," Panton said sarcastically. Nick rolled his eyes with that comment and turned his attention to Prowlson and Snarlov.

"So, let me guess, you decided you weren't going to follow Dr Panton's request, told Bogo you were taking time off for something else, put on some exploring gear, and came down here to rescue Mites," Nick summed up together.

"That would be it," both the tiger and polar bear answered.

"Good, because we would need all the help we could get," Judy pointed out.

"Then let's stop talking and get our Aardwolf," Mchorn suggested with everyone agreeing.

The group of seven then continued down the cave until they saw a giant dinosaur skeleton, with a canyon underneath it. The skeleton acted like a bridge between with the head on the edge of the groups side and the tail on the edge of the lower side with vines supporting it. They decided to cross it as they heard roaring come from the other side.

"Poor guy, to meet his demise here," Nick inquired.

"How do you know it's a he?" Judy said with a smirk.

"I just guessed," Nick answered back. The turned around when Pennington spoke up.

"Guys, I see a light up ahead," Pennington told them as she pointed her trunk at the light.

It was true, there was light up ahead. And it looked like daylight.

"What's daylight doing in an underground cavern?" Judy asked with confusion.

"Maybe the underground wanted to lighten up?" Nick said with a smirk, which earned him a smack by Judy. "Ow."

The group then walked over to the light. They kept walking towards it and what they saw at the source, was unbelievable.


A.N. Well, that's the second chapter. I apologise if it's a little too short. The next chapter is when they meet a new friend who will help them. Until next time. Please leave a comment.
