Hello, welcome back! This story has gotten so much love, and I appreciate it so much! I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Maisie and Blue watched as Ian and the Trikylosaurus charged each other. Maisie's breath hitched as Ian was smacked in the side by the Trikylosaurus's tail.
"Come on, buddy!" The Trikylosaurus teased as Ian stood up again.
The Trikylosaurus leaped at Ian, but missed. Ian clawed at the Trikylosaurus's face, but also missed. Ian was smacked in the head once again by the Trikylosaurus's tail. Ian leapt onto the Trikylosaurus's back and began to attempt to bite the Trikylosaurus, but no avail.
The Trikylosaurus's tail swung around wildly, destroying the tree that Maisie and Blue were hiding behind. Blue led Maisie to the huge rock where Maisie was knocked unconscious that fateful day.
Ian narrowly dodged the spikes on the Trikylosaurus's tail as Ian took steps backward. Ian then caught the Trikylosaurus's boulder tail in his mouth. Ian gasped as the Trikylosaurus planted his feet and swung Ian around. After about a minute, Ian lost his grip and flew off. He landed into the bushes down the hill.
The Trikylosaurus knocked some trees down and began to roll the trunks down the hill toward Ian. Ian's heart leapt as he dodged the logs. He then latched his jaw onto a log. It hurt, but Ian managed to stop a log and lift it with his superhuman jaw strength. The Trikylosaurus came running down and Ian smacked the Trikylosaurus with the tree trunk.
"That's my boy!" Owen yelled coming up from behind with Claire, "Show them what a Grady can do!"
"Dad! You're okay!" Maisie exclaimed while hugging Owen.
"If I survived the navy, the Jurassic World incident, and Lockwood Estate, a little 30 pound raptor to the head won't do too much damage," Owen replied with a smirk.
Claire rolled her eyes then turned her attention to Ian and the Trikylosaurus.
The Trikylosaurus immediately recovered from the tree trunk and began to charge at Ian. This time Ian dropped to the ground and sunk his teeth into the Trikylosaurus's front leg. The Trikylosaurus reared up on his hind legs and roared in pain. Ian then let go of the leg and rammed into the Trikylosaurus's stomach. Ian clawed at the Trikylosaurus until its stomach was covered in a blanket of deep scratches.
"Look who's the tough one now!" Ian exclaimed with a smile.
"Fine," The Trikylosaurus muttered, "You win. I'll leave you alone,"
The Trikylosaurus limped away into the forest, and Ian roared in victory. He ran up the hill to embrace his family. Blue kissed him lightly on the cheek, which made Ian go red with embarrassment.
Maisie then began to pretended to be Ian as she "roared" humorously. The family laughed, when Ian suddenly rammed Maisie away from them.
The Trikylosaurus came out of nowhere, and attempted to kill Maisie, but instead sunk his horns into Ian's side. Everyone screamed as Ian became limp on the horns.
"Hey!" The Trikylosaurus exclaimed like a maniac , "Who wants a wimp kabob!?"
Blue ran toward the Trikylosaurus and leapt onto his back. As the Trikylosaurus thrashed around, Ian's body flew off and rolled toward a cliff that had a raging river below.
The Trikylosaurus eventually threw Blue off and bolted toward Ian. When he got there, Ian was on his feet.
"You know Ian, you're actually a tough guy. How about we blow this popsicle stand and conquer the human race," The Trikylosaurus offered.
"Blah blah blah, take over the world, destroy everything, I've heard it all," Ian replied, "Have you ever watched Avengers Infinity War? Because you sound a lot like Thanos where you want to kill everyone,"
The Trikylosaurus charged as Ian looked at his wrist like watch. Right as the Trikylosaurus was a foot away from him, Ian jumped out of the way. The Trikylosaurus tumbled down into the river below.
"I'll get you if it's the last thing I do!" The Trikylosaurus yelled as he drifted away.
Ian ran back to Maisie and her parents. Blue hugged Ian with tears on her face.
"Come on guys," Owen said after a while of tear-shedding silence, "Let's go home,"
Everyone turned to leave and began to walk away. Maisie barely took a step when she turned around to look at Ian. He looked sad and scared. Ian's breath sounded as if he was silently choking on it. His eyes were filled with pain. He took a step toward Maisie, then collapsed.
"IAN!" Maisie cried as everyone ran towards him.
Ooooo, cliffhanger! I'm sorry if this chapter wasn't good, I'm not the greatest at writing fight scenes, even though they're fun to write. I'm planning to write an alternate ending to this story as well, for those who have different appreciations for other endings.
