Search Party: Part 4
by Silverclaw

"Guys come here, I found something!" Silvershade said ecstatically. For a city Velo she was very independent.

"Great work!" Silverclaw said as he, Az, and Amber joined her. They were on a bluff high above a Compsognagthus village. The tiny dinos were all dancing around the final shard. Silvershade began to move.

"Wait," Silverclaw said putting a clawed hand on her shoulder. "They outnumber us 100 to 1. If we rush in they’ll take us down easy."

"He’s right. But I have a plan." And Az began to layout what was in her mind.

Traildust had dismissed the Hunters.

<What a blundering bunch of idiots. Why did I even ask for their help?> He thought. Disgusted at the fact that Silverclaw had beaten him not once but twice. <If only I had more power. Wait Silverclaw said something about the Ruby Sunstone. At Highnest! With that I could rule the clan, no the Island with ease.> He departed at once. His dark desires magnified by his need to succeed.

"Great work!" Silverclaw said as he, Az, and Amber joined her. They were on a bluff high above a Compsognagthus (?) village. The tiny dinos were all dancing around the final shard. Silvershade began to move.

"Again stay on your guard. We have no idea what’s in there." Stormy was worried. If one stone could have done all that think of what one stone could do.

"It must be in the center of all this," Lori thought out loud.

"Let’s move. If we keep moving we have a less chance of getting caught." Rusty suggested.

Halfway to the stone they stopped to rest.

"Did you here that?" Stormy asked, already tensing.

"I didn’t here anything," Lori said.

Rrrrruuuuussssttttlllleeee!

"There it is again."

"What, I don’t here anything." Lori said again.

"No, I heard it too. A rustling." Rusty said. Then it pounced!

Only Stormy’s quick reflexes saved her from the Smiladon. It turned and charged at Lori.

"Into the tree’s" Rusty yelled. Jumping 10ft into the air. Once In the tree’s the Smiladon contented himself with circling stormy tree. Sensing her omnivore’s nature.

"Come on. We’ll hop from tree to tree. Last I knew Smiladons were not good at climbing." Lori suggested. 10 minutes later the Smiladon gave up. Yet the trio decided to stick to the tree’s a little longer.

"Ok we stick to the rim and position ourselves here, here, and here." Az explained pointing to three places on her crude map.

"Ok,"

"Got it,"

"Great,"

"Then you’ll all charge in distracting them, While I sneak in and get the Shard."

"Good, but remember to use the akylosaur-hide gloves we received." Silverclaw advised.

"Right, now let’s go!" Az said
