The teens pressed forwards on the trail of the tyrannosaurs. Occasionally, they were forced to stop in order to hide from the carnivores, but so far, their luck had held out. They'd also had to be wary of the raptors, who were hoping to steal scraps from any kills the tyrant dinosaurs made. Still, so far, things were good.

Suddenly, the great predators came to a halt. Confused, the duo took shelter behind a bush and began to observe the tyrants as they peered downwards, looking at something. A moment later, one shot its head forward. A splash followed, and when the dinosaur raised its head, it held a sawfish in its mouth. Unfortunately for the tyrannosaur, its teeth weren't meant for gripping such a slippery creature, and the fish soon slipped out of its jaws. To add insult to injury, the fish managed to hit the dinosaur in the head with its tail before it fell back into the waves. Enraged, the carnivore howled, but when it was clear its prey had escaped, it huffed in annoyance, before heading further inland, followed by the rest of its kind and, behind them, the raptor pack.

Michelle and Tristan, however, took a moment to stop at where the predator had been. There lied an estuary, and the duo could already see a large number of the sawfish swimming upriver.

"You think these guys are heading up to shallower waters to breed?" asked Michelle.

"That, or they are just able to tolerate fresh and salt water and decided to head upriver to avoid become mosasaur chow."

"True enough. Are our portals approved for water usage?"

"Nigel modified all of the portals to be waterproof before he gave us ours. Even the original one can now work beneath the waves."

"Then lets save these fish."

A moment later, and the deed was done. With the fish saved, the teens continued inland, on the trail of the tyrannosaurs.

Back at the park, Ted is helping care for the mosasaurs.

As one of the smaller mosasaurs swam toward him, Ted help out a fish on a stick. The sea lizard quickly snatched it up in its maw, before swimming away to feed in peace.

Behind the scuba gear Ted was wearing, he smiled at this. "I don't care how dangerous these things are, this is amazing. I'm one of the few people to have ever fed a mosasaur!"

In a bigger pen, more of the aquatic staff was tending to the larger mosasaurs, though they had the intelligence to use Remote Operated Minisubs or cranes to feed them. Occasionally, they also had to force the sea reptiles proceed to snout wrestle with each other in such confined spaces. Meanwhile, some of the smaller staff was already hard at work accommodating the newly arrived sawfish. So far, they were doing very well.

Back in Prehistoric New Jersey, Nigel's team is still on the trail of the hadrosaur.

Onwards the team marched. Before them, their quarry had trudged through the mud and the ferns, unwilling to slow down. Already, they were getting tired - the terrain had been very rough, and the amount of bushes they had been forced to move through had taken its toll on them. Still, they were unwilling to abandon the animal just yet.

Finally, the dinosaur came to a stop and called out, as it had many times before. This time, however, it received a response. Emerging from a nearby clump of trees was anther hadrosaur colored similarly to the first. Then a second emerged, and a third, and a fourth. Soon almost two dozen of the hadrosaurs had emerged.

Then another species of hadrosaur emerged. This one was similar to the others, except for one big difference: these hadrosaurs were huge! Some were almost as big as the Edmontosaurus back at the park. Colored yellow orange, these titanic duck bills stared at the newcomer for a moment, before beginning to browse on the nearby trees. As the giants began to spread out, several ornithomimids also emerged and began searching the ground for food.

Nigel was practically giddy with excitement. "Well, this is amazing. The hadrosaur we followed, that's Hadrosaurus. These large ones are Hypsibsema, while the ornithomimids are Coelosaurus. I thought the Hypsibsema would be extinct by now, but it seems we found a few survivors. All of them will make fantastic residents for the park."

Unknown to Nigel, however, the group is being watched.

Two minute earlier...

Tristan and Michelle had come to a halt when they had seen the tyrannosaurs had stopped behind a large set of foliage. Peaking around the area, they saw a group of ceratopsians feeding on some seeds. These ones were primitive members of their family, as they stood upright and lacked horns or frills. Though the carnivores were upwind of the herbivores, and thus in a perfect position to strike, the duo couldn't tell why they would attack such small game. Then a large, golden colored walked out of the nearby trees, followed by more of its kind. Then the odd positioning made sense.

A flicker of movement caught Michelle's attention. Looking closer, she realized it was Nigel. Cautiously, she waited until the dinosaurs were not looking at them, then started waving her hands. Nigel noticed her, and waved in response. Happy to be noticed, Michelle pointed to a nearby set of trees as a warning. It took Nige a moment, but once he spotted the tyrannosaurs, he nodded, before pointing to his right (Michelle's left). Looking there, she noticed a natural funnel made by the trees, which Nigel was already moving toward to set up the portal. Nodding, Michelle turned to a confused Tristan.

"Nigel's here, he's setting up the portal, get ready to run."

Unknown to everyone, though, someone above them did not agree with their plans.

The great flier watched as the tyrannosaurs readied to charge the hadrosaurs. Watched as they launched their attack. All of the ground walkers charged toward the clearing's sole exit, as did the new arrivals.

Then suddenly, a bright light appeared. Unable to slow down, the herbivorous animals charged into it, but they did not come out on the other side. Confused, the predator stared at the light, then at the tyrannosaurs, who were pursuing the last and slowest of the plant eaters.

If it did not attack now, it would miss its chance. And then it would go hungry, as would its mate.

The team watched as the last of the herbivores made its way toward the portal, now surrounded by the tyrannosaurs. Already, they were worried - it looked like this creature was not going to be saved.

Then, suddenly, something huge slammed into the hadrosaur, knocking it over. The impact wave also felled the humans, who struggled to get up. As they did so, they saw the tyrannosaurs were now bellowing at something...big...

The new arrival was a peculiar creature - it had a clearly theropod in origin body, with sharp claws and teeth, yet it had the long neck, and horns on its head.

Strangest of all, however, was the fact that it had red colored wings.....
