My Little Dinosaurs: Primordial Friendship

Urth 65 million B.C

Many countless eons ago when the world was still young and wild, at least millions of years before even the earliest ancestors of the ponies appeared it was the era of the mightiest creatures to have ever roamed Prehistoric Urth… The Dinosaurs!

In their day, the dinosaurs were the masters of their world with a reign that’d lasted for over 165 million years. But yet of all the variety

of these animals in nearly every shape and size, this is the story of four prehistoric pals that would end up on the adventure of a life time.

These friends are named, Parker the Parksosaurus....

Teryx the Avisaurus....

Boulder the Leptoceratops...

and Dusk the Troodon.

Now the four friends were relaxing at their favorite pond, wondering on what the four of them should do during such a seemingly quiet afternoon.

“Say guys,” wondered Parker. “Any idea of what we should actually do?”

“Well whatever we do,” replied Teryx. “I just hope we don’t end up getting stuck in tree resin like last time, the gooey stuff made me bald before it was even time for me to molt!”

“Don’t worry Teryx,” Boulder assured. “Scaly skin is quite natural for most Dinosaurs.”

“Geeze thanks for reassurance,” Teryx said with sarcasm. “Anyway what should we do anyway?”

“Well I’ve heard that the cycad fruit is sprouting at this time of year,” Dusk suggested to the group. “We could go over and collect some for a snack later in the evening.”

“Hmmm Cycad fruit,” Boulder watered eagerly.

Well it seemed that Boulder and Dusk were in agreement on the idea, as for Teryx he would’ve tag along for knowing that his favorite insects could be buzzing around the same area. Parker on the other hand was still in deep thought when his friends took notice, wondering on what the little parksosaurus was thinking.

“Hey Parker are you okay?” wondered Dusk.

“Yeah you’ve been standing there in deep thought as long as a dome headed dinosaur in a daze,” Teryx agreed.

“Oh I’m fine everyone,” Parker assured his friends. “I was just thinking of something, I mean have you ever wanted to do something more than just trying to kill some time?”

“You can do that?!” Boulder asked in confused shock.

“That’s not what Parker means Boulder,” Teryx sigh at the Leptoceratops’ obtuse nature. “Anyway our bipedal herbivorous friend, what are you trying to day?”

“Well I’m sure it’s not too important,” Parker explained. “But sometimes I just wished for once, something fantastical could happen to us at least for once in our entire lives.

“Uh Parker,” Dusk said gulping down something nervously. “I think you should be careful on what you wish for.”

“How come Dusk?” Parker asked his Troodon friend.

It was then Dusk pointed out something to the three other Dinosaurs, something that place them in total shock. High up in the sky, a meteor (referred to as a Star Stone by the dinosaurs) was coming down upon the Urth. The four friends were astonished as the said Meteor began to emit some form of rainbow display as it plummeted on the dazed and confused inhabitants of the prehistoric world.

“Oh say,” said Boulder in amazement. “I’ve never knew star stones can do that.”

“That’s because they don’t,” Teryx replied nervously. “Now if you’ll excuse me…”

Teryx proceeded to fly away from the rainbow meteor as fast as he could, Parker, Boulder and Dusk saw this and proceeded to follow the panicked Avisaurus to see what was the matter. What they all didn’t know was the Meteor meant only one thing, within moments it would be the end of an Era…the reign of the Dinosaurs would come to a close for once the Meteor struck the planet…

BOOM!!!!

With that boom, the Urth started to shake and a cloud of vaporize rock began to blanket it. Many different Dinosaurs and other creatures practically ran for the hills, attempting to escape the cosmic destruction as this prehistoric Armageddon is upon them. Parker, Boulder and Dusk had finally reached Teryx, whom soon notice his friends following him.

“Took you guys long enough,” said Teryx.

“It’s a good thing we did,” replied Parker. “But I hope we can shelter and fast, otherwise we’re sitting mammals!!!”

“Say guys why don’t we hide in there?” Boulder suggested pointing to a mysterious looking cave.

“I can’t believe it,” Teryx said in astonishment. “The bone head actually thought of something helpful.”

“Thank you Teryx,” Boulder chuckled.

“Well I guess it is worth a shot,” Dusk agreed.

“And it could be the only shot we have,” said Parker.

With their chosen hiding place settled, Parker, Teryx, Boulder and Dusk rushed into the cave as fast as they could. Within the cavern the dinosaurs hid within the cavern, someplace far enough away from the dust and debris that was engulfing their Prehistoric world. As the effect of the impact flew over the cave however, it caused a mysterious rainbow colored glow around it. Clearly the prehistoric pals weren’t aware of what was happening as they hid within the caverns for as the aura flowed around the cave, time and space accelerated around it. At least forward across at least 66 million years at least, as many different changes in the vegetation, climate and even the surface of the planet moved and shifted until finally it stopped all entirely into its current time period at the Holocene epoch.

Deep within the caverns, the four dinosaurs unaware of the change in time soon notice something peculiar going.

“Say guys did you hear that?” Parker wondered.

“I don’t know,” replied Boulder. “I can’t hear anything.”

“Neither can I,” agreed Dusk.

“Exactly everyone,” replied Parker. “I think whatever was happening is over.”

“Well I hope so,” said Teryx. “Though what that rainbow Star stone did, I hope it didn’t destroy the area we live in.”

“Well there’s only one surefire way to find out guys,” said Parker. “We have to go out there and check it out…just to be safe that is.”

“Well alright,” Teryx replied nervously. “Let just hope no predators waiting for us outside when we get out there.”

So the four Dinosaurs walked up to the opening of the cave, as they did so they were in for a big surprise…Outside the cave, the Dinos were astonished with variety of plant life. While there were still the ferns and conifers they were familiar with, but also there were plant life that would be considered foreign a Dinosaur living within the area Parker, Teryx, Boulder and Dusk resided such as grass and new variety of trees and flowers which awe and astonished the gang quite so.

“What did yeah know,” Teryx chuckled. “Instead of destruction, that star stone gave us a new decorum.”

“Indeed Teryx,” agreed Dusk. “Generally grass is more common within the Gondwanaland regions of the Urth such as the Indian subcontinent for example.”

“Well however grass got here in Laramidia…” said Parker. “Let’s just hope our valley home is alright.”

“Well if it is,” said Boulder. “I sure can’t wait to try out the new food that sprouted there.”

Boulder’s mouth began to water with the fought of the type of vegetation he’ll want to try, his friends looked on slight amusement at their ceratopsian friend’s antics.

“Well what are we waiting for?” Teryx suggested. “Let’s get going and check it out.”

“Alright then guys,” said Parker. “Let us Dinos roll!”

Filled with enthusiasm Parker, Teryx, Boulder and Dusk headed over into this brave new world, not knowing what’ll happen next as their adventure Urth… now referred to as Equestria has in store for the prehistoric pals.

To be continued…
