We ended up in a dark forest, trees everywhere, almost stopping all sunlight.
"How are we gonna do this?" TT asked. "You're the leader so you have to know something"
"I..." I started. "I don't... I have never seen such situations before..."
We started walking, searching for an exit of these woods, but suddenly, we heard the sound of war drums and arrows flying towards us.
"AAAH!" TT screamed. "We're being shot at!"
"I know! I can see that!" I replied in a kind of angry way.
"Look!" TT said. "I see something in the bushes!" We grabbed a chunk of wood and held it above our heads as the arrows were still raining down on us and we ran towards the shape TT saw in the bushes.
As we came closer we saw the shape TT sae move... we came closer and closer... we suddenly heard a scream from that direction and the war drums stopped. TT stepped in front of me saying "I'll handle this, I'm pretty sure it's a raptor."
We saw the war drums and a trail of blood going towards the back of the drums. Sneaking towards the back, following the trail, we heard noises... chewing noises.... we saw a foot, a human foot, and a tail, a snow white and red feathered tail... as TT came just an inch too close the white raptor jumped up, now staring TT right in his eyes.
"AAAAAH!!" TT screamed and he hit the raptor with the chunk of wood he had in his hands and the raptor passed out.
"S... See?" TT tried to ask bravely. "That's the knockout method." TT bowed down and held a piece of meat in his hand. Carefully he reached out to the raptor and he unconsciously ate the meat.
"And now?" I asked. "What happens next? Because he is knocked out now, how are we going to tame him now?"
"I... I don't know..." TT stuttered. "I never came this far..,"
"You what?!"
We went to the corpse of the fallen human. He was wearing a weird mask, made out of wood, painted with the same paint as we made before, just different colours. As I picked up the mask, some weird humans came out of the bushes, same mask, just a different pattern. TT fell on the ground next to the raptor and another piece of meat got out of his pocket. The raptor jumped up and ate the piece of meat like a wild animal. When it opened it's eyes, it saw us being threatened by the weird persons with spears. The raptor took an aggressive position but the people didn't budge an inch. They saw the mask in my hand and started talking to each other in a strange language we didn't understand. As soon as they stopped they started talking to us in a kind of understandable voice.
"You. Mask. Have." One of them said. "You. Us. Come. Home." We followed them as it became dark, threats slowly coming closer. We came to a road, and at the end of it, a wall. A big stone wall, with wooden spikes around it. And on some of the spikes, heads... raptor heads, human heads and the biggest one of all, a T-rex head. This was clearly the village of a brutal tribe of warriors that we should be thankful to that we still have our heads. "I can't imagine what cruelties lie beyond this gate Builder..." TT whispered in my ear.
"Neither can I Double-T..."
As we went trough the first gate, we thought we were going to die of what we saw next... but then...

"Where are those two?" Kira asked Sayla who were both watching the gate we passed trough. "Sayla not know!" She replied in a way less well language than usual.
"Mom? Where are the leader and the weird double named guy?" Monty asked Kira as he came almost crying towards them.
"I don't know my little boy, and it's almost time to close the gate too..."
Shiro became uneasy with the situation of me and Double-T not being around because everyone else was uneasy with it. It was just too quiet... not even the flying dinos crossed over our valley...
"I'm going for another check." Said one of the villagers. "Who wants to come with me?" Almost the whole village raised their hand but Kira stopped them. "I'm sorry, as much as I'd like to come, I can't allow such a thing while it's this dark already. The troodons and megalosaurus's are about to wake up. I am closing the gates now."
The gates closed and everyone went back to their houses, they all went to sleep with an uneasy feeling. Except for Sayla and Sloth, they stayed up all night in the hope of hearing from me and TT before sunrise.
