A/N: Sorry this took so long, I had a little trouble typing it. It would have been written better if I weren't trying to get it out so fast…and it's short for the same reason.

Chapter 4

In the madness, Danny thought he had heard a "Tarzan Yell", from a cracking voice and movement that wasn't his hunters. A figure jumped from a branch above and landed in front of Sam and Danny and held a torch. The figure swung the fire at the Deinonychus, and they ran.

"Tucker?" asked Danny and Sam in unison. It was indeed Tucker, but he was not himself.

He turned around and watched them. He snorted.

"What happened to you?" they asked him.

"I realize you just saved our lives with your 'ambush', but never scare us like that!" yelled the Goth.

He laughed and passed by them, in the direction of the river.

"We asked where you had been!" panted Danny as they followed. Any energy he had gotten from the fruit had ran out a while ago. Tucker ignored him; still running in an odd way while carrying his torch.

Sam and Danny watched as Tucker slowly approached the water and dipped his head in enough to drink. He then pulled out and looked back at them.

"Great, he thinks he's a caveman." Said Sam, holding her head.

"We can't reprogram him this time," sighed Danny. Sam smiled inwardly, remembering what had happened the day the last time they had reprogrammed him.

"Why would we want to? He's a lot more useful this way."

Danny blinked. He rubbed his eyes and blinked again. Exhausted hit him like a bulldozer, and he let his knees buckle. Sam watched Danny fall. Worried, she got one of his arms over her shoulders and lifted him up. He was asleep.

"He's alright, let him sleep." Grunted Tuck.

Sam lowered him to the ground carefully. He was too heavy for her to hold up anyway. She looked up at the Cave boy.

"You should sleep too," he said. She smiled and yawned. She lied down next to Danny and fell sound asleep as well.

When they woke up Tucker was out to look for more fruit for them.

"Danny? What are we going to do? We might never get home." Sam said sadly.

He looked at her. He was afraid to scare her, but he had nothing comforting to say to her. "I don't know…" his voice trailed off.

"We can't keep living this way."

"We have to, for now."

They sat alone with their thoughts until Tucker came back with some more edible fruits, and some roots. Danny, Sam, and Tucker ate hungrily. They decided that they couldn't just sit there and do nothing. If there was no way to get back to their own time, they might as well walk.

This idea quickly disappeared as rain clouds formed above them. It became as dark as night and light drops fell on their heads. Sam growled into the air.

The rain quickly went from light drips to dropping in buckets. It only took seconds for the group to be soaked. A loud roar was heard and it sounded close. Then a loud, squished thump came from behind them.

Whirling around, the trio met eye to ankle with a very large dinosaur. They looked up and screamed at the same time. For the Dinosaur they has seen was Tyrant Lizard King, or Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Despite any judgment, everyone scattered in different directions.

Danny looked around. He could not see his friends. He opened his mouth to call, and was rewarded with a mouth full of rainwater.He gagged on it, and made sure to keep his lips sealed.He couldn't see anything except the large shadow that was a T-rex. He slid and fell. He tried to rise and fell again. Another time and he stood somewhat solidly, weighted down because his clothes were caked with mud.

Instinct more than thinking drove Danny to try and become a ghost. Unable to even feel if it had worked, he looked at his hand. He couldn't tell. He tried to make to use his favorite power.

It worked.

This would be a happy moment, however his glowing hand had attracted the brute's attention. He turned to Danny and bared his teeth, though all Danny saw was that it was facing him.
