Suddenly the screaming stops and the Raptors turns dead in their tracks as they slowly start to walk in the direction towards Ashby.
"Meat... Fresh..."
One of the older ones take a stealthy approach and run into the bushes, while the other ones spread out wild for it but the last who is stuck in the trap tries to get out so he can join the hunt.
It does not take long until the elder of the raptor ambush Ashby from the bushes and stand in front of her instead, looking at the meat and switching back and forth between looking at her eyes and the meat. The younger taking more time to come letting Ashby either fight or use a tactic to flee.

Skylla rushed trough the tall grass, jumping in order to avoid some trees that had fallen over.
The dinosaurs however didn't have much trouble keeping up with the female.
The blood rushed to her head, never slowing her pace down, with the dinosaurs on her trail.
Suddenly the brunette stopped dead in her track. Not far from her, maybe a few meters away, stood the younger female she had seen before.
Skylla's pinks lips twisted up in a smirk, as a plan to get herself out of this mess came up in her mind.

Ashby stood her ground in front of the great beast, keeping her eyes on it. With slow movement she took hold of a long knife that used to be a dinosaur's sharp tooth.
She didn't fear the beast as she had come across many such situations, yet now, it seemed the things had managed to corner her. She observed her surrounding looking for a way to get out of a 'corner' so she can fight back.

Kest was walking through the White Tigers tribal village, using his walking stick to provide him extra support. A few of the people in the village were standing toward one side of the town, looking out in the direction that the warriors had left.
By the time that Kest had arrived at the crowd, one of them cried out, "They're back!" to several cheers.
Some of the stronger men and women rushed out to help pull, getting Echo back in the village in no time compared to what it had taken to get him as far as he did on his own. Kest fixed his eyes on Echo, then the beast and then the horizon from which Echo came. "Where is Ashby?"

Trog had finally pushed back the longneck to the Black Mammoth tribe at the dark lands, the Tribe hailing his return as he finally enters with food. "Trog return!!!" He yells with a worn out voice but so pleased, having perhaps pleased his father with this. "Where is Chief Tall Sharp teeth?" The warriors all react at the name though one step forward to speak. "Chief is hunting, checking for sharp teeth, ugh."

Trogdor saw the longneck that Trog had brought in, and grinned, walking out to meet him. Good. Good for Great Shadow. Trog will have to hunt again for others. He walked up to Trog, his eyes stern despite his delight. "Trog, you do well. This good sacrifice for Great Shadow."
"Ugh?" went half the tribe. "Why give food to Great Shadow? It no eat."
"I see it eat," Trogdor corrected. "This food is Great Shadow's, and Trogdor no want to anger it. Trogdor sure Tribe no want to anger it either. Help old Trogdor get food to Great Tree."
"What will we eat then?"
"Trogdor sure Trog no mind getting second beast."

But Great Shadow always take Prey. But if Trog say no, Trog will anger Shadow.
Trog felt out tired as the whole tribe was dedicated to the Great Shadow, he wanted to say no because most were hungry but he might be able to get more Prey if he left before the great light set down before the great wall.
"Ugh, Trog will take down Second Prey for Tribe, show Father, Tribe and Great Shadow. Trog is worthy Warrior of Black Mammoth!"

Dumping the prey in the middle of the village, Echo yells in a loud angry voice to shut everyone up. He was worried about Ashby so all this happy cheering had gotten to him.
"This is no time for celebrations!!! Ashby has risked her life in order for me to bring this food for you! She is being chased by sharp teeth!"
A strange silence befalls the whole tribe. They all knew how cunning and dangerous sharp teeth were. They were no ordinary predators. They hunted in packs. Knowing this, Echo points at 5 of the best warriors he knew in the tribe and turns towards Ashby's location, fastening his pace.
"Let's go!"

"Trog is worthy Warrior of Black Mammoth!" These words echoe through the cheering of the tribe only to be rivaled by a loud laughter. Slow clapping is heard as a shadow emerges from the crowd and approaches Trog.
"Trog do good... Sad that Trog's prey go to the shadow... I bet Trog hate shadow! But Trog no say what can hurt him... He stupid!" Rim says smirking silently.
Clapping his hands with a grin, his subordinates move out of the way, revealing two long necks behind them. Rim looks at Trog's catch and giggles in an annoying tone.
"Trog catch only one? It good that Rim here. Tribe have food thanks to me. Great Shadow have food thanks to you..."

Trog snorted at Rim's words.
"Rim will say big word! Hunters come with him. TROG HUNT LONGNECK ALONE! TROG DRAG LONGNECK BACK ALONE!"
His words were full with pride of the Black Mammoth tribe.
"Rim say hurting words to shame Trog. Trog say Rim go hunt. NO HUNTER. Bring back BIG PREY."
Trog clenched his fists together as he was ready to hit something, even the ground and he was known to shake the ground when he started but not as much as his father was to.

Rim began to laugh uncontrollably, patting Trog's back as if to say losen up.
"Trog... Trog... Trog..."
The caveman began circling around his 'friend' in a provocative way. Constantly repeating the man's name before stopping in front of him with a grin.
"Rim not stupid like Trog. Your father powerful. You could have people to take longneck back. But pride blind you. I kill the two longnecks. They pull them back!" He says pointing to 4 exhausted smaller males. "I only use my energy for the good of tribe and for the Great Shadow! No waste time on pride!"
Rim turns his back on Trog, shrugging in order to further anger his rival.

Trog's anger did fall trap, but the tribe stepped back knowing how foolish it was to do so because in their family, for the calm Trog to start becoming angry, the waste of the village, it took about three great light and grand shadow to rebuild the village once they started fighting.
Though to Trog's defense, he had done something different... he started laughing.
"Trog see Rim... Trog understand. Father IS strong, Yes." He smiled with a deep grin hiding behind it, growing as he approached Rim.
"But Rim no understand HOW Father and Trog is strong. Trog is stronger than Rim. Trog can kill longnecks all day long but tribe carry all day long too. YOU BEGIN TO SOUND LIKE WHITE STRIPES!"
In a swift emotion, Trog had picked up Rim by his head and lifted him up from the ground.
"Trog order Rim to do hunt. RIM CARRY LONGNECK BACK Longneck be sacrifice for Great Shadow."
Trog then flung Rim away, almost hitting one of the huts.
"Trog come with Rim. Rim show Trog if true Black Mammoth member."

Angered by the fact that Trog had just insulted his strength, Rim whipes the dust off himself while grunting. Standing to his feet, he glares at Trog.
"You are lucky for your father. If you didn't have, I kill you for this..."
This grunt is followed by a wide grin. It was easy for Rim to kill Longnecks. He was afterall one of the strongest in the village almost rivaling Trog. Now smiling, Rim spreads his arms.
"How about we show village who is Black Mammoth and who is white stripe? We go longneck home and who brings biggest longneck back to great shadow is best! He also have shadow blessing!"
Rim watches Trog and awaits a reply. He knew how much Trog hated the great shadow so he was actually counting on his rival to insult it, causing him to fall in the tribes eyes.

"Let's go!"
Kest gripped his staff and struck it firmly against the ground. A few of the harder ornaments on the end clacked together, catching the attention of Echo and the five warriors. Kest stepped forward towards the group, clearing his throat. He was not quick on his feet, and Echo knew he would slow them down if he insisted on coming with.
Kest realized this as well. "Stop. I will help."
"There is no time!" Echo cried.
"I will not keep you here long. But, going against sharp teeth. Even you, six great warriors, need all the help you can get. Now stand still." Kest started to draw a circle around them, pulling one of the nuts off his staff. He murmured a few words before hurling the nut right at Echo's forehead. It made a pleasant "thunk" sound. Echo reeled back and glared at Kest, holding his forehead. Kest just smiled back to him in a knowing way. "Lead them well." Kest had done all he could, it was just a matter of whether or not the shield he put around them would hold.
