Often in the darkness, it was almost dawn in the atmosphere. Everyone was still sleeping. But all of a sudden, a big thump was heard. And it had woken Y/N when he hears the second thump. He got up and when to see what made that noise as he slightly opened the door. There was a fully-grown Allosaurus just roaming around the ruined park.
Y/N slowly took a step back and he woken up Oribe.
Y/N: [whispering] "Oribe. Wake up!"
Naruse has woken up too.
Oribe: "Y/N?... what is it?"
Y/N: "There's something out there. We gotta get out of here."
Naruse: "What do we do?"
Y/N: "Wake the others and tell them we are leaving."
Oribe and Naruse woke up everyone, and they all got up. While they were already awake, Y/N tells the group that they should get moving to the medical facility where they would be safe. They packed their belongings as they head to the emergency exit. Y/N checks to see if the Allosaurus is gone, but it came closer to the staircase. Y/N warned the group to remain still while they hear soft growling from outside. They were all shaking with fear. The allosaur was about to make an entrance to the center, but it was interrupted by a loud roar that was heard for miles. It had gotten the Allosaurus' attention and it went to the opposite direction, and walked away. Everyone sighed and relief. And, they all made it to the emergency exit and they all made their way through the jungle landscape.
The sun was about to rise at dawn in the atmosphere. Meanwhile, the group were walking along the path, with Y/N in the lead. They all stopped as they see two paths and wondered which way to go.
Aoyama: "So, which way do we choose?"
Y/N: [looks at the map] "It says, that we should take a left side of the path."
Miss Marika: "Well then let's hurry."
Oribe looks up to the trees and notices the leaves and the bushes from below were rustling, she became alarmed and fully aware of what might be coming soon.
Oribe: "Teacher, if we walked the paved road in a formation like this, the dinosaurs will easily catch us."
Miss Marika: "Oribe... are you telling me what to do?"
Y/N: "Can't we rearrange the formation with the members we have now and at least walk through the mountains..."
Aoyama: "Yeah, let's all listen to Y/N's instructions and die. When we listened to what you had to say, many of our school friends lost their lives, didn't they?"
Oribe: "T... That's just--"
Aoyama: "I DON'T WANT TO HEAR AN EXCUSE! That was the result of one of your reckless plans, wasn't it? While on the other hand, we were led by the teacher without losing a single person other than Miss Nozawa who disappeared on the way."
Oribe: [shocked] Miss Nozawa?
Y/N: "What happened to her?"
Usui: "It was too much, I'm sure that we don't want to think about what we've been through before we went to the place where we were safe."
Aoyama: "In fact, if the teacher didn't save me from that day when Miss Nozawa made me do such lewd things, I would have been her slave. You made a mistake. All of you made a mistake! When you were the leader, people lost their lives. This is society!"
Chris: "Who gives a damn about society! We're living in perilous times right now, dammit! None of us would be here if we were all killed by a meat-eating dinosaur!"
Naruse: "Surely, if we didn't have Y/N with us, we would have been decimated!"
Kamijo: "If we listened to what dino boy has to say, then perhaps we'd surely be safe."
Miss Marika: "Enough! If I had never spoken, then you wouldn't be quarreling right now. Y/N, did you want to become a leader that much? If you do, then will you lead and inform us all in danger?"
Y/N: "No!
Aoyama: "What good is it to say something like that? Is this how low your leadership is, class rep?"
Naruse & Y/N: !!
Chris: "You son of a bitch!"
Chris gets angry and walks up quickly to Aoyama as he almost starts to punch her in the face.
Oribe: "Stop! ...Chitose's fine. I'll walk first, and the rest of you can follow."
Aoyama: "Well, as expected, Oribe. You catch on quickly, don't you? That's right... carry all out baggage too, okay?"
Chris: "Are you gonna keep your mouth shut from now on? Will that be a useful formation?"
Naruse: "It's all right, she gets it. Now then, I'll take the left side, and Y/N will be our guide like the teacher said."
Miss Marika: "As like I said, if the bugs show up, then we should either let Oribe or Y/N deal with it."
Y/N: [sarcastically] "Oh sure, and I'll surely build us a boat so that way, we can all escape."
Aoyama: "Tch!"
Miss Marika: "If Y/N's story is coherent, then let us move."
Oribe & Y/N: "Right!"
A monstrous roar in the distance causes the group to look up. Y/N cautiously steps forward. More carnivores can be heard a mile away.
Chris: "Did you hear that?"
Y/N: "I heard that."
Matsuoka: "What was it?"
The roar has gotten louder.
Y/N: "Go.... run as fast as you can. Go, RUN!"
They sprint through the jungle landscape, the trees and bushes, Y/N pulling Oribe behind him and Matsuoka holding Miura's hand. As they were running, they were in a grass area full of herbivore dinosaurs, but when they hear a monstrous roar which birds appear out of the trees, the land was thundering - a stampede of Hadrosaurs, Pachycephalosaurs, a few Sauropodomorphas and Ceratopsians running ahead through a 20-meter wide pathway to the other area. Their roars echo in the distance, while they also ram each other and trip over one another as they flee.
(*A/N: The Sauropodomorpha, meaning 'lizard-foot form', is a genus of dinosaurs used to group and identify the group of long-necked, herbivorous dinosaurs that eventually evolved into quadrupedal creatures that became the largest animals that ever walked the earth.)
The front of the herd is most consistent of Hadrosaurs and Pachycephalosaurs. They groan and moan in panic, and then, several reptilian shrieks were heard - it is a pack of dozen velociraptors. One of them was male and female. The males had a coloration similar to that of a tiger with yellow eyes, and the females were a brown color with translucent green eyes similar to crocodiles.
They leap on the Hadrosaurs, clawed on them, and bite them. One of them chased after a group of baby Triceratops, but their mother is quick enough to headbutt the reptiles out of their way. The center of the herd is made up of Ceratopsians, as well as new attackers - a band of three 9 meter long Albertosaurus! They gave a roar at them, attempting to frighten then away and cause havoc, but one of them is rammed out of the way by a Pachyrhinosaurus.
At the back of the herd are all the mentioned herbivores, but an Alamosaurus as well. The giant Sauropods were too big to be threatened, so they bellowed and stomped their feet to drive the carnivores away. The raptor pack kills a hadrosaur, while an Albertosaurus hunts a Centrosaurus. Then suddenly and unexpectedly, the Centrosaurus was killed by something hungrier and even more dangerous - the Tyrannosaurus Rex! This T-Rex was different, it's color was red dark spots on the back and its jaws, and yellow eyes, making it look like a dangerous creature.
A trio of these predators is chasing the herbivores as they were hunting to track down prey, trying to pick off some that come near. Still, the Albertosaurus was still present, and one has killed a hadrosaur.
At the end, only one Pachyrhinosaur was lagging behind the hard and running to catch up. The Pachyrhinosaurus was still catching its breath, trying its best to out run the T-Rex, but it was too late. The carnivore bites into its neck and throws the animal to the ground, suffocating it with its powerful jaws, and blood was splattering. Lifting its head up and snarling, he lets out two mighty roars alerting his comrades that he has caught something. The other two returned with their smaller kills, and they all continued their feast.
The group was losing sight of each other in the rush. They see giant trees at the end of the grass field. Only Oribe, Naruse, Miyasano, Suzuki, Chris and Y/N were the only ones that made it. They climbed up to the tree were they can be safe on the branches. A raptor leaps at Chris, barely missing his leg. Trying to pull Chris up, Miyasano nearly loses her balance. But at the end, she catches him. Kai, Matsuoka and Miura climb up a nearby tree of their own sight of the classmates. Miss Marika, Momosaki, Aoyama, Minowa, Jinno and Kamijou seemed to be going to the opposite direction as they dashed to the other side of the trees.
Meanwhile, Usui had nearly reached a tree of their own when they find themselves by a velociraptor. He turned to the other way, but there were more raptors. Usui picked up a fallen branch as these dinosaurs cautiously approach. Not more than a few feet away, the leader of the trio stops, peering at him. Usui swings hard, but the dinosaurs feints. From behind him, another raptor slashes at the back of his legs, severing his
muscles. Usui let out a scream and drops to the ground. In the treetops, Oribe and the others can hear him.
Kai: "That was Usui!"
Naruse: [listening] "He's over there."
From here, the thick branches overlap, forming a kind of a "second floor" above the ground. It's not easy, but you can move from branch to branch, tree to tree. Usui was remaining on the floor Unable to walk, Usui attempts to crawl away from the animals. The effort clearly causes him great pain. Strangely, the raptors suddenly don't seem interested in him anymore. Rather, they're "talking" among themselves. Usui is amazed to find himself still alive. Suddenly, one of the raptors slashes at him again. But it's delicately not a mortal blow, just a very painful one. Udesky cries out as he felt an excruciating pain on his back, louder this time. Hearing the new cry, the survivors move faster, now finally seeing Usui on the ground. He's face-down, barely moving but still moaning. The raptors are gone. In the lead, Suzuki starts to climb down. But Naruse grabs her, holds her back.
Naruse: "It's not safe."
Suzuki: "We gotta help him."
Y/N: "He's right. A predator wouldn't leave a kill wounded."
Kai: "He's already dead. There's nothing we can do."
Suzuki: "No, he's still alive."
She breaks from Chris' grip and drops to the ground. She's only a foot away from the tree when all three raptors lead out from their hiding places. They almost catch her as Naruse and Miyasano pull her back up on the limb. The raptors stare up at them, angry their plan didn't work.
Chris: "They couldn't climb up, so they were trying to get us to come down."
Kai: "They actually set a trap."
Bored with waiting, the raptors go back to finish off Usui, making a meal out of it. Up in the branches, the survivors are horrified and sickened. Then, from the deep in the forest, a new raptor cry. The feasting raptors look up, listening, then suddenly run off into the dark jungle.
Y/N: "This is how Inou looked before she died... not only that we are in perilous times... this is the Cretaceous world we are living in."
To be continued...
