Been a while since I written anything.

Today's combatents are two large and formidable predators, Nanotyrannus and the Short-Faced Bear.

Size:

Nanotyrannus: 2.5 meters tall, up to 5 meters long.

Short-Faced Bear: 2 meters at the shoulder, 3 meters on hind legs.

Strengths:

Nanotyrannus: Superior bite strength, powerful legs, tail may also be used as a blunt weapon.

Short-Faced Bear: Powerful bite, long and strong forearms, claws.

Weaknesses:

Nanotyrannus: Tiny forearms, eyes and face are vulnerable if the bear rears on it's hind legs.

Short-Faced Bear: Thinner skin, weaker bite.

Battle:

An anomaly links 65 Million BC to 1 Million BC. The last Nanotyrannus knaws on the bones of a sauropod carcass. It sees the unusual light, and like a moth to a flame she is drawn to it. She emerges into a green paradise, very unlike the arid climate she is used to. But there is water, the sun is shining, and there were bizzare, horned creatures grazing.

The Nanotyrannus uses trees as cover and, in a burst of strength, charges forward, bellowing, and disembowels one of the creatures. It is the first time she has had fresh meat in weeks.

Attracted by the strange sound, two bear cubs creep out of the undergrowth. In a bloodlust, the Nanotyrannus gives chase to the cubs, snapping one up like the small mammal from it's own time, and continues to pursue the sibling. Suddenly, the trees in front of it come alive with a mighty roar, and a giant mass of teeth and fur burst forward. The Short-Face Bear mother chomps the dinosaur's snout, while it's claws rend the neck and chest.

The Nanotyrannus is able to throw the bear off and gather it's bearings, before preparing itself for a fight against a creature the likes of which it has never seen before. With a roar, it rushes the bear, hoping to scare it away. The bear rears up, looking down at it's adversary, trying it's own intimidation tactics. But the Nanotyrannus jumps into the bear, tearing flesh with it's claws and knocking the wind out of the mother. As the bear falls, the Nanotyrannus aims for the throat. A quick action raises the bears arm in the path of the jaws, as the Nanotyrannus chomps down.

Enduring the pain, the bear bites the dinosaur's snout, while it's other claws turn it's opponents face, legs, and flanks to red ribbons. One strike slashes Nanotyrannus' eye, who then backs away in pain. Preferring to live and fight another day, the Nanotyrannus turns tail and tries to run. Noticing the mother giving chase, the theropod smacks it with her tail, and the bear is momentarily stunned. Hoping to finish the fight quickly, Nanotyrannus swings it's massive jaws to crush the bear's head. But she is met with another one of the bear's claws, which removes it's remaining eye.

Blind and frightend, the dinosaur bites wildly, hoping to strike it's assailant, but it is knocked to the ground by a massive paw, and it's windpipe is soon crushed by the bears jaws.

As the mother licks her wounds, her cub returns from the tree it had climbed, and tries to suckle. He is rejected by his mother. The cub is at the age to begin eating meat. And what better meal, than the spoils of war?
