Aquarius stared at the small pile of rocks though he moved out of the way when The Threehorn said that he would be the one to get them out. However Aquarius had his doubts about simply bashing through that wall. Although Aquarius wished he could get closer he knew it was out of the question as the Threehorn backed up and charged at the rock wall slammed into the wall with all the force he could muster. The wall shook and a whole load of loose pebbles were discarded and fell to the ground along with a couple of big ones. The Threehorn repeated this and though he tried not to show it Aquarius could see the strained look on The Threehorn's face as he started to strain at the effort of slamming his head into those rocks.

It was nearly ten charges later and little sign of change in the wall that the Threehorn stopped to catch his breath, Aquarius took his change this charged and approached the rock wall and inspecting it. He could see the several boulders had accumulated at the bottom due to the beating on the wall. However those rocks that were on the bottom were no longer at the top. Aquarius climbed up a couple of boulders and stood on a flat one and saw that the top layer of stones was much thinner, there was more light coming this area. The Swimmer's eyes widened, as he released that this was the way out it just needed a push.

Aquarius turned back to look at the exhausted Threehorn. The young Swimmer jumped to the ground and walked over to him and placed some treestars down in front of his snout in the hope that he might eat one. "I think if you hit the wall up near the top then we'll be able to get out" He said, Aquarius didn't feel so helpless if the Threehorn used this advice as he could never do anything like this even if he was not almost covered in dried blood. His wounds were no longer bleeding except one but he was two weak to do this so he sat aside and waited, listening to the loud panting of the exhausted Threehorn.

Aquarius almost jumped when he heard the terrifying roar. There was no doubt that it was a Sharptooth, a big one at that and by the sound of it a very angry one. However that's not what frightened Aquarius, it was the fact that the sound came from just outside the cave. The thought that a Sharptooth would have entered the cave had it not been for the rock slide was a terrifying one indeed to the young Swimmer. All of a sudden he didn't feel to keen on finding a way out but he knew he couldn't stay in the cave forever. So with an almighty huff he forced himself onto his legs which trebled under his weight but held and followed Rinen into the dark with a quiet whimper. "Why did all this happen to me?" lamented the young Swimmer inwardly as he trundled deeper into the cave.

A sickening feeling of dread came over the wounded Swimmer when he felt the whole cave rumble. In that moment he felt cursed to be followed by misfortune, he's already lost his family to the Great Wave and now when he was drained and injured the cave was starting to collapse and after a run in with a rather irate Threehorn. Said Threehorn was about to walk out into the storm when the rumbling started and ran back inside and through yelling for him to run which would have surprised Aquarius had it not been for the impending life or death situation that he found himself in. Aquarius gave a gasp as he forced himself quickly to his feet as pain racked through his body and he instinctively recoiled and gripped his side where the stab wound was. A large rock, over three times his size fell down right next to him and the Threehorn was already running deep into the cave which was there only hope of survival. Aquarius rushed forward but remembered the spring. It had food which they might need in the near future, without regarding the imminent danger he was in Aquarius ran back towards the spring as fast as he's sore legs which he ignored through sheer will power as fast as they could go.

Large rocks fell all around him and he heard the Threehorn call something but Aquarius continued through the mine field of rocks, his body was pummelled with small pebbles which only added to his pain but he pushed on to the spring and grabbed all the last tree stars and took one last gulp of water and ran back in the cave but at this point in time the entire ceiling was caving in rapidly from the entrance, sending huge rocks that where larger then the Threehorn down. Aquarius was breathing unsteadily and his vision was blurred with tears from all the pain and dust but he ran blindly on. However his body took to much pummelling and a large rock fell on his tail and tripping him just as the ceiling collapsed above him. Aquarius closed his eyes tightly but instead nothing happened. He heard the crash but there was no new pain. He opened his eyes and vaguely saw that the rock above was held up by large rocks on the side. Breathing a sigh of relief he began crawling his way through the debris and deeper into the cave, hoping that the rocks would clear soon and that none would collapse on him.

Aquarius saw the Threehorn raise his tail in an obvious preparation for a strike and he assumed that it wasn't going to be a soft blow but he was not willing to let that happen. Aquarius may have been wounded but he could still push himself up and judging by the relaxed stance this stupid Threehorn was making he was sure that a 'wounded, helpless hatchling' was no threat whatsoever.

Well, he had made a terrible mistake.


"Never underestimate your opponent" said Aquarius inwardly. He had heard many great tales and legends from his kinds past and he often recited them and now he could see how useful they were. A stone was not much but if it was used correctly it was deadly and that's exactly what he intended to use it for.

His body tensed as the tail swung down, leaving the Threehorn's flank and rear exposed with his head turned slightly away. Perfect. Aquarius closed his eyes and despite all the pain that his beaten body was feeling at that exact moment he jumped forward, just before the tail could come down and landed on all fours beneath the arrogant Threehorn.

Aqaurius wasted no time in running over to the neck of the Threehorn from underneath. He had no intention to hurt him but rather to humble him as he held the sharp end of the rock to his throat. In a dramatic turn of tables The Threehorn was now at his mercy, he could kill him if he wanted to and there was nothing that could be done to stop him. He held the stone firmly to the skin of the neck so The Threehorn would know his situation and said firmly:

"Not so tough now! I don't want this, stop calling me names and I won't do anything to you in return and as for my story I don't care of you believe it but it won't change me view on things. So just please leave me alone!" Aquarius shouted out the last part and pulled the rock away from the shocked Threehorn and walked a couple of paces till he was out in the open then promptly fell to the ground with the terrible pain that he no longer needed to keep at bay, his back to the Threehorn as he crawled away to the cave wall slowly and in agonising pain.

Happy Starday Ducky . Finally 21 hope the day goes well for you mate.

Aquarius's patience was rapidly wearing thin but despite that he still tried to maintain a calm composure but he found that was way to difficult, he felt to much emotions to be calm. He still felt anger and betrayal when he looked at the Threehorn but he also felt pain, sadness, loss and humiliation from looking at his injury's or even think about why he was here. There was no way that Threehorn could understand what potentially loosing the entirety of his family was like.

Aquarius grimaced at the Threehorn's next statement. "He called me a flipping hatchling, who does he think he is?" Aquarius raged inwardly. He my be young but he did not think of himself as a hatchling when he had been through so much and he vocally challenged this "I am not a hatchling chubby and I'm not sure if you've been living in another cave but The Great Wave is what happened to me!"

However Aqaurius gave a loud moan as his the small wound on his front tinged with stinging pain and he held onto it tightly, in a curled, trembling ball. However despite this he was not going to let himself show weakness by crying in the presence of this ignorant Threehorn. His pain soon subsided back to a tolerable level and he simply lay on the ground in utter exhaustion.

Aquarius grumbled angrily to himself. This was the last dinosaur he wanted the unfortunate luck of running into, still it was better then a Sharptooth and if that Threehorn was not willing to cause any trouble then he would live with that. Aquarius couldn't help but wonder what had befallen the Threehorn, cause he looked simply exhausted, in both senses mentally and physically. "Fine," sighed Aquarius in defeat, letting his brave face fall "but stay away from me" he added quietly but in a tone that reeked of anger. He shuffled slightly away to the cave wall opposite the Threehorn.

I was not aware that the tsunami started at the ocean. The only way you'd get a big tsunami or in this case a mega tsunami is to have a lock slide in which large rocks for into water. An earthquake would can make large tsunami's (5-10m) but not large enough to threaten most dinosaurs so a mega tsunami that is over the 100m mark in height is probably the only way to get that scale of effect and they are only caused by huge water displacement from falling objects (eg. rocks falling in water, meteorites).

The tsunami I caused by a rockslide that happened during one huge earthquake, that's what I understand it to be.

I believe our original starting points are on the map if we want to try Sovereigns idea. As I said before my post was probably the confusing starter because I forgot that we were supposed to start at the oasis however since the RP has gone the direction it has here is what I make of it.

Ducky is at the oasis.

Fyn is near the oasis.

Jorrdy starts close to the oasis.

I don't know where Rhombus is but that means the he could position Buko near the oasis.

And me and Sovereign have just entered the cave together which is further away from the oasis. So we could still potentially do a meet up of one group there while Aquarius and Rinen travel there. This scenario would mean that the Great Wave has only just hit unless we decide to make the previous posts as full on flashbacks while for the others not affected by the wave they would probably already be converging on the oasis. I don't know about Darkwolf though as she has posted yet.
