A.N. Hey folks, Blue Tagg here with the fourteenth chapter. Sorry for the delay, had things to do. Anyway, this is where we get to the good stuff. Enjoy.
Back with Marcus and the dinoswalked through the jungle. The baby dinosaurs were running ahead, just having fun. Gladys kept pushing the kids forward, encouraging them to keep moving forward. She was looking a bit anxious.
Marcus was holding onto Gladys' tail, thus riding her. When a roar was heard from the distance, Gladys picked up the pace. But when Gladys went over some stones, Marcus accidently went into them, thus making him fall off the dinosaur.
"Wait! You forgot me Gladys!" Marcus called, trying to get the dinosaurs attention.
He then went over the stone and tried to catch up with them, but Gladys was going too fast for him.
"Wait… time out…" Marcus said as he ran, also starting to lose his breath. He then stopped to catch his breath. "Geez, you guys are getting fast."
Marcus then began to walk through the jungle, and he was starting to be a bit creeped out.
"Okay, so I'm currently all by myself in a dinosaur infested jungle," Marcus stated to himself. "But what could happen?"
At that moment, giant greyish-white dinosaur legs landed right behind him. Marcus slowly looked up quite frightened. He looked up to see a giant dinosaur looking down on him.
"Nice dinosaur," Marcus nervously said, trying to tame.
The dinosaur then did a giant roar, which cause Marcus to run away, screaming with fear.
The roar was loud, it reached Buck and the others.
"Rudy," Buck sneered as he heard the roar from the distance.
"Rudy?" Judy asked when she heard Buck.
Then a loud scream came from the distance, a terrified scream.
"Never that kind of dinosaur before," Buck admitted, feeling stumped.
"That's no dinosaur, that's Marcus!" Panton confirmed.
"And sounds like he's in trouble," Snarlov pointed out.
"And so is Francine!" Nick also pointed out.
Everyone turned to see the dinosaurs coming, and that it was a short climb to Francine. They also hear Rudy's roar again, indicating he was chasing Marcus.
"What do we do?!" Mchorn said frantically. Both Francine and Marcus were in trouble
"We'll have to split up!" Buck declared, much to everyone's surprise. He then turned to Nick and Judy. "Nick, Judy, you're with me. Bogo, you and the other's take care of Francine until we get back." Buck began to walk away, but Bogo stopped him.
"Wait, how are we gonna stop them!" Bogo asked, not knowing what to do.
"Well, figure it out!" Buck told him. He then again walked away.
"But still…" Bogo was still saying, until Panton put a paw on his shoulder.
"It's okay, we got you're back," Panton said as he referred to himself and the other officers. Bogo then nodded his head
"Now you're talking. Come on you two," Buck said to Nick and Judy as he walked off. But Nick and Judy turned their attention to the group.
"Keep her safe," Nick advised them, which the other officers nodded in agreement. Judy turned to Panton.
"We'll bring Marcus back," Judy told him.
"Just be safe," Panton advised them, to which they nodded.
The two then ran off to catch up with Buck. The two groups parted ways, so they could complete their tasks.
Marcus was running from the dinosaur. He was really scared, looking for a place to hide. He then found a hallow tree trunk. But then the dinosaur stomped on part of the trunk.
"Go away! Go away!" Marcus begged as he began to run away. As Marcus ran, the dinosaur stomped on the ground so hard, it caused the ground to crack up, revealing lava underneath it.
Marcus continued run, but lava began to spew from the ground, which surprised and caused him to fall over.
The ground around him turned into a giant boulder floating on the lava. Marcus looked at the dinosaur to see it's silhouette in the smoke, walking away. Marcus was on his own on the rock on lava.
"It's just lava," Marcus said to himself to calm himself down. Then a large piece of the boulder broke of, leaving him on a smaller rock. "Hot, boiling, lava!"
Marcus then looked ahead to see the lava leads to a giant fall, much to his horror. Marcus was soon gonna go over the falls.
On a cliff, Nick, Judy and Buck, who had a long piece of vine wrapped around him, were looking at Lava Falls from a distance.
"Okay, so how do we get over…" Judy was saying, but she and Nick turned around to see Buck holding a rock like bowl filled with a yellow paste. He was using it to paint marks on his face.
"What are you doing?" Nick asked the weasel as he approached them.
"I do this whenever I'm about to do an important task," Buck replied. Nick then thought for a minute.
"Pass it to me please," Nick asked with his paw out. Buck passed the bowl and Nick used the paste to make some yellow marks on his face.
Judy looked at him with glare as he finished. He then offered the bowl to her. Judy looked at it for a second and shrugged. She took the bowl and used it to paint yellow marks on her face. Once she was done, Buck put his arms around the two, staring over the edge.
"Great, now we're ready," Buck declared with a smirk.
"Ready for what…" Judy was asking, but Buck just went running up the edge with the two dragging.
"JUMP!" Buck shouted as he ran with the two of them over to the edge.
Nick and Judy screamed as they fell off the edge, and into the mist just below. But a few seconds after they fell in, they came out of the mist riding the Pterodactyl. They held onto it by its tail, until it threw them up in the air. Then Buck used the vine and whipped it across its jaws. Buck then landed on its back and began to use the vines to control its movement. Nick and Judy landed behind him. They seemed a bit worried about flying though.
"Have you flown on one of these before?" Judy asked feeling concerned.
"No, first time actually!" Buck replied. "Hee- ya. Yaaaahhhhhooooo!" Buck yelled in joy as he rode the pterodactyl. But Nick and Judy weren't that excited."
Meanwhile, Bogo, Panton and the others were down at the bottom of the Plates of Woe. They looked up to see Francine on her ledge with her trunk still stuck in the rocks.
"You alright?" Bogo called out to her.
"I'm fine!" Francine reassured them.
The group then noticed the dinosaurs.
"We need to get to her!" Bogo pointed out. He was just about to move, but Prowlson stopped him.
"Listen, I'll protect Francine, the rest of you take care of those guys!" Prowlson ordered them.
"Are you sure?" Bogo asked her.
"Listen, if they reach her, it'll be too late, you have to trust me!" Prowlson pointed out.
Everyone looked up to see Francine was in a vulnerable position against the dinosaurs, and knew she was right.
"Okay, hurry!" Bogo advised her. Prowlson made her way towards the rock pile that led to Francine, while the rest went after the dinosaurs.
Prowlson saw a path to Francine and began to run towards it. She then saw one of the dinosaurs taking the same path, and knew she had to catch up. As she saw how it ran, she knew she'll never catch up.
But then she looked down at her paws. Prowlson was one of the mammals that went savage during the savage crisis, but like the others, she was cured. But Prowlson took a moment to think. She looked at the path to Francine and the dinosaur that was taking it.
Prowlson began to run up the path. But as she ran, she began to crouch down a bit more. She crouched way down until she began to run on all fours, which made her go faster. Using her new skill, she quickly ran up the path and was catching up with the dinosaur, but it was getting away again. She then saw some hanging plates and, taking a risk, she leaped across from on plate to another to reach Francine faster.
But the dinosaur managed to get close enough. It was now on Francine's plate and facing her. Francine waited for the worst part, but Prowlson jumped onto the ledge and kicked it off the edge and it fell down. Prowlson felt proud of what she just did.
"Woo, my paws are burning baby, they're burning!" Prowlson boasted. She went back on all fours and began tiptoeing on the spot. "I got tipytoe, tipytoe, tipytoe."
"Excuse me Theresa but, still a little stuck here," Francine pointed out.
"Oh, right sorry," Prowlson said as she approached her. "You okay?"
"I'm fine, but my trunk's still stuck," Francine said as she tried to get her trunk out.
Prowlson came over and tried to remove one of the rocks that held her trunks, but when she tried to remove it, the whole wall shook. Prowlson took that as a sign to stop.
"If I try to remove them, the whole wall will come down," Prowlson realised.
"Aaaagggghh!" Francine screamed in horror.
"Don't worry, I'm sure we'll find a way…" Prowlson tried to explain, but Francine interrupted her.
"No, aaaggghh!" Francine screamed as she pointed behind her.
Prowlson turned to see another dinosaur ready to pounce. She then charged at it and pushed it down the edge. When she looked down, she saw two more climbing up.
A.N Well, that was the fourteenth chapter and, Marcus is in danger, Buck, Nick and Judy are on a pterodactyl to save him, and the others are protecting Francine. Seems like a multiaction chapter. Tune in to next time.
