Journey to the great valley begins!
Meanwhile in the Mysterious Beyond
Nathan eyes opened slowly, and then he left his head only to see Zoran sleeping. He looked at the caves entrance to see it was light outside.
'It must be morning' He thought to himself.
He sat up and realized he didn't feel weak anymore and was able to stand up. So he thought he try walking towards the other side of the cave. He took his first few steps and was able to walk, he move more towards Zoran this time and then started to hear a guiding sound behind him. It was the rocks that where tied to his legs. Zoran rolled over to wear Nathan would be sleeping.
It only occurred to Nathan that he could take his chances and run away. But if he did the chances of getting killed was high. And this time there would kill him on the spot unlike the last sharpteeth he met. And he was now four days behind his family by now. It seemed easier to stay with Zoran, head to the valley and wait for his family to come. With that slotted out he thought he wake Zoran up. He moved closer to him and then started to tap him.
'Hey wake up'
Zoran didn't respond.
'Move it!' The threehorn shouted
Zoran didn't respond
'Fine then, I just run away…..'
Cut off in mid-sentence Zoran grab Nathan's mouth.
'Never joke about running away' Zoran said
'mmmhm' Nathan said as he try say 'sorry' while having his mouth trap shut by the hand of Zoran.
He let go and walk over and give Nathan some barriers.
'When you're fished your barriers well make our move to the great valley' Zoran said as he walked back to his side of the cave.
After sometime Zoran removed the green vines that where attached to Nathan neck and legs. He finally trusted him. And then there both walk out of the cave. It was a hot and sunny day. Zoran and Nathan started the great journey to the great valley. The two of them didn't say much as there walk through the mysterious beyond, until the threehorn tried to break the silence.
'Sooooo how comes you're not flying?' Nathan asked hoping to see the pteranodon to fly soon.
'So I can keep watch on you' Zoran said
'Hey! I said I'm not going to runway! The threehorn said annoyed.
'I'm not here to stop you from running away but to protect you from any dangerous.' Zoran said sill facing forward almost if he wasn't even paying any attention to him.
'Oh I see' the threehorn said.
There walked some more this time entering a canyon. Zoran felt cold like if he could tell something bad was going to happen soon. But he wasn't so sure.
'I think we should sing or play a game to past the time.' Nathan said
'I'm not so sure' Zoran said
'Oh come on, you enjoy it. Trust me!' The threehorn said
'Alright, aright, alright! I do it' Zoran said
'My mum use to sing it to me as a child and sometimes I sing it to myself' As Zoran said he began to sing.
In the shadow of the valley, I would like to settle down, wide open space, wind on my face, distant horizon, the moon on the crest in the shadow of the valley that I love best.
You have always waited for me and you always will be there. Sage brush and pine, old friends of mine, A little bit further, I will find my rest, in the shadow of the valley. That I love best.
I have wandered many places but they're all the same to me. Nowhere I've found to settle down. A little bit further I'll find my rest, in the shadow of the valley that I love best. In the shadow of the valley, that I love best.
'That was amazing!' Nathan shouted
Well thank you very much but we better hurry up and get out of this can canyon before it gets dark.' Zoran said
As there were talking, Fast Biters shadows appeared behind them. There were five of them and were getting ready to attack. One of the fast biters was on top of a cliff on the left hand side; his job was to attack first. The others fast biters where hiding in a bush or behind a tree. Zoran stopped dead. The threehorn stop as well looking confused.
'What's the matter?'
'Fast biters'
'How can you tell? I can't see any of them.' The threehorn added.
Just then a fast biter jump from the cliff to attack Zoran. But Zoran did nothing. The fast biter was falling closer to Zoran as was about to land on him. But sudden what must have felt like hours Zoran raised his left arm and strike the fast biter. The fast biter falls to the ground and didn't get up. A large pool of blood appeared around the body of the fast biter.
'Go I keep them off you' Zoran said as the other four fast biters appeared.
'Are you going to be alright?' Nathan asked.
'GO!' Zoran shouted
Nathan ran while Zoran started to attack the other sharpteeth. The fast biter who was behind a tree ran towards Zoran. The claws of the fast biter reach out to Zoran's head but missed as Zoran dodges them. The flyer grabs the legs of the fast biter and pulled them making him fell to the ground. In shock the fast biter couldn't get back on his feet. Zoran used his flyer talons to kill the fast biter. Another fast biter sneaked up on Zoran this time and attacked the black flyer back.
'Ahhhhhh' Zoran shouted
Zoran eyes went red with angry. He turned around to face the fast biter and punch him in the stomach. As the fast biter bent down in pain Zoran grab his head and choke him to death. Zoran fell to his knees in pain. He looks around to see where Nathan was, but he was nowhere to be seen. But something was wrong. Zoran had only notice that he had only killed three fast biters. Where was the other too? Zoran started to run in the direction where he last saw Nathan. Hoping he was still alive.
Nathan was running as fast as his legs could carry him. The two fast biters where chasing him. Nathan saw two paths he was able to chosen from, he rushed to the left side of the canyon hoping the fast biters would go the wrong way but there didn't. There were still behind him. Sudden Nathan stopped. It was a dead end…
Nathan turns around to see the fast biters. Before he could do anything there both grab him by his four legs but didn't expect the threehorn to try and escape by using one of his legs to kick the fast biter in the face. The fast biter groaned in pain but didn't let go of his legs.
'The moment you let go of me. I will KILL YOU!' the threehorn shouted.
Zoran who was in the air, saw the two paths Nathan could have taken. But he didn't know which one he would have taken.
'Where could there have gone to? I'm just going to have to choose!' Zoran thought to himself.
He went to the left side of the canyon hoping he chosen the right one. The wind push Zoran given him more speed. Sudden he saw three dinosaurs.
'It must be them!' Zoran thought.
He landed on a cliff high up from the ground. He saw Nathan being drag by the two fast biters.
'I better time this just right' Zoran said
The three dinosaurs where just under Zoran by now, he jump of the cliff and opened his wings, this was to slow him down as he was about to attack the two fast biters. Zoran made an angry cry as he landed on a fast biter. His talons dig into the fast biter and both of them fell on the ground. In shock the other fast biter let go of the threehorn and began to run away.
'Are you ok? Are you hurt?' Zoran said
'I'm fine' Nathan said getting himself on his own four feet.
'Good. I'm going to get that last fast biter' Zoran began to run in the direction of where the last fast biter was.
'But he is running away, is there any point now! Hey wait for me!' Nathan shouted
Nathan ran's as he saw Zoran trying to catch the last fast biter. Why was it so imported to catch him? Many thoughts raced through Nathan's mind as he raced towards Zoran. The fast biter had come cross the paths again. His legs where shaking in fear. He took the right side path of the canyon, the only path that has not been exploded yet.
'Why won't there leave me alone! I'm too young to die! It was only going to be kidnapping' the fast biter thought to himself as he run away from the black flyer.
Zoran had catch up and jump onto the fast biter. There both rolled over until Zoran got onto his feet. Zoran notice how different this fast biter was to the others. He was aquamarine blue with red patches around his face, with blue eyes. Unlike the other fast biters who were dark brown or black. He was also out of breath.
'Please I beg of you. D…Don't kill me!'
'Well see' Zoran knock him out with a blow to the head.
A few minutes later the threehorn child arrived.
'Are you ok?' Nathan said
'I'm fine.' Zoran said
'Oh well then that's good just one thing….. Why are bleeding! Nathan shouted.
'Oh I didn't notice. Anyway the good news is that where going the right direction and we have a new 'friend'.
Confused Nathan look at the knock out fast biter.
'Unh, Is he dead?
'No. Knock out'
'Anyway we better make our way out of this canyon before its night fall.' Zoran explained
'How is HE going to travel with us?'
'I'm going to carry him.'
'What!' Nathan said in shock.
'Over the past few days I've been gaining strength from the err…. Barriers' Zoran said
'Oh so I see' Nathan said
While Zoran carried the fast biter, Nathan followed by as there soon exits the canyon. There went on for miles until there thought there had found a safe cave to sleep in. It looked that no one else was living there so there set up camp. The cave was much bigger than the last cave Zoran had made his home in. There was even a second floor in the cave which made Zoran very happy. He would be able to leave the fast biter down there for his 'experiments' Zoran had on his mind without the threehorn knowing about it. Zoran began to tie the fast biter up with the green vines he used on the threehorn once. He also made sure that his mouth would not open at all when he wakes up.
'I don't want you to come down here when he wakes up' Zoran ordered.
'Why' Nathan asked
'Because his dangerous, he kill you when he gets the chance'. Zoran expanded
'Well ok…'
'Good. If I do need you when he awake I call for you' Zoran said
The threehorn went back to the first floor of the cave while Zoran was making the fast biter more 'comfortable' before he wakes up.
Well that's the tenth chapter up. I hope you've been enjoying it but I'm going to be busy now. I hope to make more chapters as quick as I can. But by the speed I'm going I won't be able to finish it on time before the July 26, 2012 as I thought it was going to be finish.
