Reo stiffened,pupils narrowing.
"Can you feel it?....."He whispered to Lotus.
Lotus nodded and slowly backed away from the clearing which was completely devoid of animals and plants.Curious.
Arc turned around to find he was the only one venturing out from beneath the safe canopy of trees.
"What are you guys,scared?"He laughed.{Wow......he has a short memory...wasn't he trying to kill Reo only mer chapters ago?}
"I'm getting.......a bad feeling......"Reo whispered.{This is about where the blood-thirsty jumps out and we all scream,yes?}
Arc raised an eyebrow{who wouldn't?}and chose to take that as a joke{read above comment}.He continued on his walk.
Suddenly a strange foreboding{Yay!New word!}feeling made him stop.He ignored it and continued on.{Oh,smart idea}
"I'd back away if I was you!"Reo yelled from his position at least four yards away.
"What?"Arc yelled.Suddenly{Argh.I say suddenly to much.....how about I say zipper instead for this chapter?}-I mean Zipper-Reo felt it.
"Arc,watch out!"Reo yelled,running towards the obnoxious Outer islander.
Arc cocked the eyebrow again{Hehe.....I keep thinking funny things when I read that sentence......}.
Reo pushed Arc away from the spot on top of a soon-to-not-be-dormat geyser,just as a blast{I spent two minutes trying to think up that word...}of hot water,not exactly engulfing him but certainly spraying him very badly.
"Reo!"Arc shouted,{Now don't you think he's gonna make it through with only minor burns that heal the next day.Reo fans glare at her and bring out the Barney videosThis is very important to the story,so please don't kill me.}while Lotus only managed to gape.
Racing to his aid,both Lotus and Arc managed to drag a badly burned Reo away before another geyser erupted.
"Few!I'm tired!"Tawnycrest yawned in that adorable way only hatchlings can manage.
"Same here!"Greenplates also yawned adorably.
Anile simply snored.
Lage laughed inwardly at the hatchling's antics.Though she never-and could never have-had children,she always and always would love them to death.
Settling down herself,Lage fell into a deep sleep,not noticing the nearby raptor clothed in a dark blue fabric with yellow stars,orange suns and bluish-white moons watching her with cold silver eyes.
He fiddled around with a deck of tarot cards,performing tricks to amuse himself.{Anyone know what that card trick-you know,the one where the cards fly from one hand to another-is called?Please tell me}
with a flick of his hand,he drew the misfortune and luck card{There are misfortune and luck cards right?:)}purposely,though to the outsider it would lookk like simple chance after the way he had shuffled the deck earlier.
"So,which will it be Stormtracer,will you perish and lead us to your demise?Or will you finally avenge the unfair deaths that plague this part of Dinotopia?"With another flick of his hand,the cards disappeared and he walked away.
"Oi!Is that light I see up ahead?!"Arc whispered furiously.
Lotus blinked."It appears so."
Without another word,they ran towards it.
{No,their not dead:)}
"Hey guys!It's Reo and two strange raptors!"Sharksbane pointed at the tired trio slowly traveling towards the fire.{So many Ts!XX}
Instantly everyone who knew him roused themselves to see Reo.
" 'Eo,you okay?"Tiny Doltra squeaked,scrambling to meet her idol.
"No,he's not.He strayed to far to an......eruption of water."Lotus told them.
"Ah,a geyser."Lage nodded,having joined the group."I think I'll take over.Nice bandages."She nodded approving towards Arc and Lotus.
"That was his work."Lotus graciously{No,really?}said.
"It was nothing.......He saved my life."
He zipper{remember earlier?}heard squealing and excited yelps coming from a nearby bush,he stared at it.
After waiting ten minutes,he decided he must be be tired enough to hear things and walked away.
"Great going Jinx!You almost gave us away!"A red raptor with black stripes and crest bonked a smaller golden raptor with red stripes and crest.
"You were the one who squealed Firerose!"Jinx pointed out meekly,earning another bonk.
"Shut up!We have booby traps to set up and a lair to erect!Move move move!"
The two slunk off quietly,scheming how to kidnap a certain raptor.{Three guesses who:)
