As I said before our little 'In Spe' village,as how I liked to call it,was situated in a deserted area. Underground ruins had enough water for everyone and our hunters would go on a trip in search for food that lasted for 3 days,but sometimes even 3 months. We still managed to be satisfied with the desert food. Meaning that we rely on the turkey volchers,reel shadows and a few migrating camels that get lost in the desert. I am a hunter as well. I am hunting only at times when we really need food and when our food gatherers are on a long search party. They've been away for 6 days now. So I had to do my job. I scouted thru the desert with Angel. She asked me if she can tag along. At first I didnt want to,but then what can happen? Those are just dumb old desert birds. So I agreed and we took of. We went one hour up north to the reel shadows teritory. Reel shadows are indignant desert birds. They look like turkey volchers,but are smaller and weaker. Black colored. „Why arent we hunting the big ones?“ Angel asked. „Cause the search party will be comming soon...And since there are only 2 of us and 1000's of them,we are outnumbered and we could become theyr meal. You know how vicious and bloodthirsty they can be.“ Angel nodded but I can see that she was a bit disappointed. We looked at the big shadow mountain that reminded of a huge bear. We walked towards it until.. „Ugh! Whats that God awfull smell?? Yuck!“ Angel made a face. „Shh... you know that they eat meat too so probably some leftovers.“ „Oh my God I think Im gonna vomit.“ I rolled my eyes. „Softy...“ I said. „Hey! It just stinks,ok?!“ She was mad. I laughed. „You gotta adapt to it if you intend to survive on a battlefield,cause believe me its gonna be full of dead bodyes and huge stench.“ Angel was a bit shocked. „Im sure its not gonna be anything worse then this.“ She was hardheaded. I looked around and didnt hear nor see anything,anyone. „Mom,what happened to the birds?“ Angel asked. I got a bit scared now. I know the reels never leave theyr teritoy unless they attack us or they eat eachoter. Could it be that Angel and I havent noticed anything on our way here? Is it possible that the reels are attacking our village right now without me or Angel seeing or hearing a single reel shadow in the sky? It isnt. Did they get attacked? Did they fly away? Theres only one thing that could scare of the reel shadows. A predator. A huge,monstruous,mercyless predator. But one such thing never existed. I could be wrong.. „Hey mom!“ I heard Angel calling me from the distance. „Look at this!!“ She was standing on an elevated area. I ran towards her to see what she saw. „What happened to them?!“ I was shocked. The reel shadows,all 400 of them,killed. Massacred. There were body parts everywhere. I noticed that the reel shadows werent the only ones killed. There were human parts,dragon parts. Imagine a desert... filled with massacred bodies of humans,dragons and other creatures. That's how it looked like. Something huge happened here. And its still fresh,kind of. Maybe 2 days old. The awfull smell was giving us a headacke. I thought I will throw up until Angel finally spoke. „Mom,is this how it looks like on a battle field?“ „Kind of,but this is worse. This is like someone is collecting parts of bodyes...“ I turned my head to the elevated area „..and puts them into one place. A sink hole.“ Angel shed a tear. I looked at her and she hugged me. „You were right... I am a softy.. I couldnt be in a battle. I couldnt lead the army. I am sorry I let you and dad down, I really wanted to be like you. I wanted you to be proud of me,but I am just too scared. I thought I could do it but now that I see this I ask myself: ''what if that becomes of my army?'' and I really dont want that!“ „Dont say that Angel! You need to overcome your fears. I will train with you and make you a great leader.“ We hugged again. Sudanlly the ground started shaking. Then stopped. Then it shaked again. „What is that??“ Angel said. „Hush! Follow me and be quiet!“ We hide in a small cave. The thing that was making the ground shake was a Spinosaur. Yes, a dino,not like the one we had billions of years ago. This one was bigger,faster and more dangerous and bloodthirsty. A spino is 19 meters in lenght and 7 to 9 tons weight. It can run really fast despite his weight and it can jump very high. So if Angel and I took flight we would be too slow and it would reach us in a blink of an eye. He can hear in range of 4km and pick up a sent within 6-7km in range. It was a bloody killing machine. We feard of it as soon as we entered the desert lands. But we had highly trained forces so we werent that much scared. But 2 of them did attack us on our way thru the desert. It was a cold,hard battle. Many were injured,many have died. But most of us survived and kept on going. The spino picked up the sent of dead body parts in the sink hole,he smelled a little then started eating. Angel was shaking. „What are we gonna do?“ „Be very quiet and stick to my side.“ I said. We glided towards the ground and landed. „Shh...“ I reminded Angel. She noded. The spino stopped eating. He looked towards us,got up and roarded. It was so loud. Angel and I looked behind at him. He started runing towards us. „NOOO!“ I yelled. I knew that we are too slow for him. I had to think of a plan. „Mom! Why is he chasing us if he has enough food there?!“ Angel was yelling. „He is a hunter! He doesnt want to be fed! I wants to hunt!“ „Oh no! What are we gonna do?!“ I was thinking of using my electricity at him,but I didnt have enough energy to kill him,only slow him down enough for us to fly as high as possible. I crouched and prepared for a lightning storm. „MOM!“ Angel yelled. I looked behind and she was gone. After a few minutes all I could hear was the sound of the spinos roar getting closer. I was dinner, served.
