"See Longtail?... nobody... is alone... in this world." - Racnar said trying to smile. Cayso got closer to his brother and said - "Now, try to relax, remember t breathe slowly and regularly." - He then began thinking, the number of revelations his friends are getting. He wondered if the spirits may know something about his own heritage, but he then tried to relax - ""the less people knowing, the better" - was his last thought.

"I think the reason you felt it was a burden was because you were alone. When you don't have anyone, things do seem much harder."
Kai said, smiling at his friend happily.

"Yeah, he's right. And now that we're all together, things might seem less of a load on you."
Dante said, stepping back into the cave with a small packet wrapped in leaves, and a small container of water.
"Here, Racnar. Take this with the water. It'll at least help make you better."
He said smiling, then gestured with his head for Cayso to follow him outside the cave...

Redclaw noticed the children coming out of the cave. "Oh, you're back already? What did you young ones find out? And anyone else want some of these buzzers I found?"

Racnar took the things Dante brought and proceeded as Dante said, still with a bit of disgust, but doing it nevertheless.
"Thank you." - Cayso said to Dante, and he nodded when he saw the darker-coloured dinosaur calling for him - "I'll be back soon Racnar." - he patted his brother and stood up, going to where Dante is. "What is it?" - Cayso asked when they reached the cave's exit.

Kai smiled.
"I'll take some, Red! Thanks!"
He said, a big grin on his face...

Dante smiled sadly at Cayso once they got outside.
"Look...I hate to tell you this, but that won't actually cure your brother. It'll suppress the symptoms of his illness, but it won't cure him. That's...even beyond my capability. I'm so sorry."
He said, looking away at the ground...

Redclaw handed Kai some crawlers. Chomper, Tyra, Rita, and Veli went up Cayso.

"Cayso...., I'm so sorry," Veli said. Chomper and the two girl rexes frowned too. "I wish there was something we could do," Chomper said. "Yeah, you guys helped me, I wish I could do something for you," Tyra commented. "Me too," nodded Rita

"Well their leaving was fortunate." said Soul somberly.

Longtail looked confused as he asked, "What are you talking about mom?"

Pearl who had also stayed behind was starting to worry, as she noticed it was getting alot colder in the cave.

Soul sighed.
"My dear son....this is going to be the hardest thing you've ever had to do so far. I am so sorry to have to tell you this...but...you need to finish what was started years ago....and you must destroy this island! I'm sorry Longtail, but you have no choice!"

Longtail was stunned. He couldn't bring himself to move...he at some point stopped breathing as he fell backwards and Pearl had to help him down to the ground.

Pearl was now shivering and asked, "Why? Why does he have to do this?! It isn't fair...this is my home, and his! You can't ask him after everything he's done to just bring his home to ruin again!"

Soul sighed and asked, "Arius...please...show them that it must be done."

"Whoa geez," Chomper said surprised. "Why does the island NEED to be destroyed? That sounds odd."

"There's probably a purpose," Veli suggested. "I'm willing to bet if it isn't, something bad would happen

Cayso smiled at Dante and told him - "For a second, I thought you may find a way, (sighs) but I do know you tried, and I am very grateful for that... at least, you'll make him to feel better, that is good." - Cayso then heared Chomper's comment about the island, he then looked at his brother that came out of the cave as well, walking slowly. - "That spirit is .... asking Longtail something... too difficult... so it must be ... vital for him and even... all of us." - Racnar said as Cayso ran to reach him.

At this point Longtail was visibly shaking with rage. His next few words echoed off the walls of the cave and could be heard outside. "NO MOTHER! I REFUSE TO DO THIS, AND YOU CAN"T MAKE ME!!!"
He then turned his back on his mother still far too angry to answer her.

"Fine then, you leave me no choice." Soul stated as she turned to face the entrance to the cave, and her eyes began to glow purple. "Dante...Kai, we need your help please. The rest of you are welcome to come back in as well. I'll make the entrance big enough for the other sharpteeth to enter as well."

Pearl was torn between arguing with Soul on why the island had to be destroyed and why Longtail had to be the one to do it. It just didn't seem fair to her. "Please...make the right choice Longtail. My Legendary Survivor."

Chomper and Rita walked over to Longtail. "I don't know what to say," Chomper tried to comfort. "I don't know much about this, so I know I can't influence you to do this, the choice is up to you unless Kai and Dante want to do it.

Redclaw looked at the expanding cave entrance. "Amazing...." the big sharptooth said. Now both he and Chomper's parents could enter as well

Chiletrek · **Reply #531 on:** December 21, 2008, 02:21:32 PM

Cayso frowned as he heard Longtail's scream, with a certain bad feeling about what can happen, he knelt allowing his brother to climb into his back - "We should get inside as well."
"I hope... everything will be for... the best. I would loved to had a chance to point out the route to this place." - Racnar said to his brother, to which he replied - "Don't start with that."
"We all have... a destiny." - Racnar managed to smile, as he kept on breathing, hoping for Dante¥s herbs to do the job.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #532 on:** December 21, 2008, 05:31:09 PM

Dante shook his head.
"This isn't right. Something tells me there's another way. Some way to solve this problem without destroying the Island."
He said, looking at the ground...

Kai nodded.
"I get the same feeling. Plus, there feels like there's something here waiting for me. Something from my past..."
He added, grimly...

tempestwheel · **Reply #533 on:** December 21, 2008, 05:35:08 PM

"And if something from your past is here, we can't risk destroying this place," Veli commented.

"Yeah that's right Veli," Chomper added. Rita, Tyra, and Redclaw nodded.

"Besides," Diamond commented, "There are some other dinos living on the island. A herd of belly draggers, meat-eaters yes, but they respect my family for some reason."

Chiletrek · **Reply #534 on:** December 21, 2008, 09:55:25 PM

"What if... if the island is destroyed by a Guardian like Longtail, it could be... revived like it did once already... in a better glory?." - Racnar asked, and added - "...but if it gets destroyed by someone else, it will be destroyed forever?".

tempestwheel · **Reply #535 on:** December 21, 2008, 10:02:02 PM

Tyra went up to Longtail. "Racnar has a point," she said. "I mean, if the island got destroyed once, how'd it get to be in good condition anyways?" she asked to everone essentially.

Chomper added "well, if the island has to be destroyed, we probably should find those belly draggers and get them to safety. Pearl, Gem, do you know where we could find them?"

Chiletrek · **Reply #536 on:** December 21, 2008, 10:08:44 PM

"I am more concerned in who may want to destroy this island. If the Guardians want to sink it, maybe that one who wants to destroy it may come again soon." - Cayso said.

"If I am right... those other dinosaurs and bellydraggers must get... warned..." - Racnar managed to say, but the pain and the effect of the leaves are drowsing him.

tempestwheel · **Reply #537 on:** December 21, 2008, 10:11:28 PM

"That's our problem," Chomper nodded "We don't really have any suspects when it comes to dinos who want to destroy this place."

"Yeah, it doesn't make sense," added Rita.

Chiletrek · **Reply #538 on:** December 21, 2008, 10:22:09 PM

"Then maybe we should ask them, so we can be sure." - Cayso said as he looked at Soul and Arius. He then looked back to his brother and smiled sadly as he heard him breathing slowly and realizing that he began sleeping.

tempestwheel · **Reply #539 on:** December 21, 2008, 10:26:54 PM

"He'll be ok Cayso," Redclaw tried to assure the fast biter. But this entire time he felt there was something Soul and Arius weren't telling them
