My Little Raptor

Ever since Terry beat Noah, I've been working non stop on my project. I started to clean my gun, checking inside the barrel. It was exactly like a musket from the Colonial times of my world. I took off the blade of my musket, then started to spray paint the side, near the butt of the gun.

I growled as I hear a hoof step enter the room. I looked to see RD, staring at the gun I was holding. I snorted once, then got back to work, ignoring her.

"Dart?" RD asked, walking up to me. I ignored her, and started to engrave something under my COG skull. "Listen, Zara's worried about you, and-"

"Who sent you?" I asked, glaring at her.

"What?" She asked, looking surprised.

"Who sent you to talk to me? I mean, sure, we're friends, but, I wouldn't exactly know you to talk to a killer." I said, looking down at my gun, continuing the scripting my favorite line.

"Well, I'm the Element of Loyalty. I'm supposed to be loyal, if you forgot." RD said, putting a hoof on my shoulder.

I hissed at her, making her back away. "Listen, I need to find Terry. You and the others can help, but he put Noah in the hospital." I said, glaring at her. "Carno's were the top predator's in their time, and look what a young T-Rex did to him."

I sighed, then looked at my gun. "Listen, I know you want to help, I really want you guys to stick with me. But, I was one of Terry's first friends here, and we barely knew each other. I need to find him, alone. If you come, you'll be nothing more than a prevention from me doing the right thing." I said, then I would look back up at her.

"Listen, they don't call me Prophet for nothin'. And I know what will happen if you come along. You and your friends will try to stop me from doing what I can." I said, loading something into the gun.

"If I don't come back in the next two days, then you can look for me. If Z, M, and F lay their eggs, come tell me. And if Terry's eggs hatch, make sure that Cutter takes care of them."

I smiled sadly at her. "It's Terry and me. No one else. If you interrupt our talk, then it will get only worse." I said, walking towards the door, gun slung over my shoulder.

The inscription on my gun said, "Respect those who have fallen, as if they were you brothers or sisters."

I walked out of the door, and saw Spike standing there, sobbing quietly. I would walk up to him, then pat his back.

"Listen, if I don't come back, I want you to take care of my kids, as if they were your own. Also, don't be afraid to tell AJ about how you feel. It might lead you to where you're going." I said, scaring him.

"How do you know? You're not a pony or a dragon." Spike asked, wiping away his tears.

"Because, Fade and I knew each other for a long time. When she said she loved me, I realized I loved her back. Since then, we've been together in crazy adventures with Noah and Cutter. Hell, even Karlos and Vesa too." I said, smiling at him.

"You may not have known your parents, Spike. But be glad that someone was there to take care of you. I know you view these ponies as your friends, and nothing more. But, I can tell AJ likes you back." I said, knowing Z, F, and M were in the shadows, listening.

"Don't be afraid to tell her your feelings, and then, you'll be happy to know if she loves you, or she doesn't love you. It's better to know she doesn't like you that way than at all." I stated, patting his back again.

"You have a life ahead of you, Spike. Don't waste it on questions that will never be answered if you don't ask them." I said, standing up. "Good luck, mate." I said, pushing him away.

I would start to walk away, when I heard grass getting crunched. I turned around to see Spike run towards me, then tackle me, hugging me.

"Thanks, Dart. I'll make sure that I'll take your advice to heart and tell her." He said, putting his face in my chest, since I was still standing up.

I hesitantly hugged him back, smiling. "Good luck, Spike. May we meet in another life, then I will make sure that we'll be friends again." I said, letting go. He would then walk away, him smiling. "They grow up so fast." I commented, walking away.

I stood there, seeing Terry. He was currently eating a Triceratops corpse, probably one he killed. He didn't notice me, making me smile. I readied my gun, then aimed.

I heard a crunch, and looked at my foot to see a dead leaf. "Son of a bitch." I muttered, to see Terry stop eating, then turn his head my way, his head turning slowly, it was almost creepy.

He roared, then ran after me, I quickly dodged, almost getting stomped by the large T-Rex.

"Terry, hold still!" I yelled, aiming, readying my shot. I fired, hitting Terry on the side of his neck. He roared in pain as the substance I made slowly took effect, but her shook his head, growling in pain. "I told you to hold still, good thing you listened, because-SHIT!"

I dodged as he bit where I was, getting nothing but a mouth full of dirt and air. He roared at me again, glaring as his eyes turned into slits.

"So much for diplomacy." I said, chuckling. Terry got up, spitting out the dirt, then roared at me. "Son of a bitch!" I dodged again as he bit at me, but he wacked me with his tail, sending me into a dead tree, breaking it in half.

I looked around for my gun, and noticed it lying in front of me. I grabbed it, then reloaded another dart...Son of a bitch. Don't you dare start that!

I aimed, then fired again, hitting Terry's leg, making him slow down, his breathing slowing down to a calmed one. But he still ran towards me, rage in his eyes. He then lowered his head, but I jumped up, landing on his neck. I grabbed a tranq out, then stabbed it into his neck.

Terry roared, but would slow down, softly growling. I grabbed another, then pulled out the needle, and put in another, ejecting the liquid. He would then trip over a root, then fall down, making me fall off. I landed hard on the ground, making me roar in pain. I'll tell you what I did next.

"FUCK! ASS! BITCH! BASTARD! HELL! GOD DAMMIT!" I swore, grabbing onto my chest, a few ribs probably broken from the fall and the tree. "Son of a bitch! That fucking hurt!" I said, getting up, grabbing my chest. I saw Terry open a eye, his eyes normal.

"Dart?" Terry asked, looking at me.

"Sorry, big guy. But this'll hurt me more than it's going to hurt you." I said, grabbing my gun, then slamming the butt of it on his forehead, knocking him out. I then sighed, plopping myself on the soft dirt. I noticed a rainbow streak go by, which made me smirk.

"Three. Two. One..." I said to myself. Right as I said one, the rainbow streak started to head towards me.

"Dart, what happened to you?" RD asked, looking at me. Suddenly, a draft came behind her, making her turn around to see the snout of Terry. "Are you okay?" RD asked, turning her attention towards me.

"I could use a coffee." I said in a French accented, leaning up. 1998 Godzilla reference. "Now, hurry up and get the others. I'll be fine." I said, making her fly off.

"Hey, Terry, don't know if you can hear me, but, ya ever wonder why we're here?" I asked, looking at his sleeping form.
