Denton pocked his head out from the bush and looked directly at the other longneck
"Oh my... hello." He said "Where'd you come from?"
He stumbled out from the bushes to get a closer look, being careful not to frighten the new comer
"My name is Denton." he said, eying Zaine curiously

The gang of kids finally made it back to the Thundering Falls, Bryce and Ellie actually being in the lead and therefore winning the race
the two giggled and didn't seem to pay this much mind, they simply dove into the water and swam about beneath the water like flyers in a calm summer sky.
They both soon emerged their heads and looked up at the gang who was panting from exhaustion of the race
"The water feels great!" exclaimed Ellie excitedly

Blackclaw stepped closer towards the giant bones of the dead sharptooth. It was then that he realized the size of the skeletal monster before him. Much larger than any sharptooth he's ever seen.
"This master of your's" said Blackclaw, studying the remains "He's quiet big for his kind."
"Y-yes." stammered Torgo and he crept up next to Blackclaw, the poor raptor was trembling, obviously frightened, as if his master was going to awaken right there and devour him whole for disturbing his 'rest'
"The master is very powerful. He has killed many. The Master never approves of visitors. Let us leave, please."
"Nonsense" replied Blackclaw "Torgo, take a gander... what do you see? Just bones, right? Nothing but a corps."
He turned looking at Torgo, eying the poor raptor with a demanding glare
"Am I right?"
"I uh...."
Torgo gulped and looked at his cousin and then at the massive skull, two blood red lights burned from both eye sockets and seemed to be glaring hungrily at the two raptors
"Answer me, Torgo." continued Blackclaw, not noticing the activity behind him "Is the master... dead?"
Torgo shook his head and trembling almost uncontrollably tried to point his foreclaw in the direction of the skull
"The master has awakened!"
"What?" said Blackclaw and he turned lookinng at the skull, just now seeing the two eirie lights that glowed from it
"What in the name of..."
"Silence fool!" came an echoing voice from the skull, and Blackclaw knew the voice instantly
"F-f-Father?!?"
ooc: before anybody assumes the worst, no, Kragoth is not alive again, and no, the 'Master' is not alive either. The skull here is paranormally being used as a type of communication point between Kragoth and his son. There is much plot development here, and an interesting twist concerning the sharptooth corps. Stay tuned! And ask questions if need be in the discussion forum =)
