Lucious was basking in the sun, allowing the wonderful heat soak into his skin. A shadow suddenly overcasts him, he opens his eyes. Partly angered by this fowl action. Another Kaprosuchus stood over him, she was green in colour. She pushed a large fish toward Lucious mouth, and a grin formed on his face. He couldn't be mad on an empty stomach. "Thanks" he mummbled, flicking the fish into his mouth before chewing it and swallowing it. The girl then turned to the tree "Rover, i didn't forget you"



"Offf courssssse you wouldnnnn't, im charrrminnng" The large snake revealed himself from the leaves, his camoflage breaking as he slithered down the tree slowly. He reached over for the fish that the female Kapro was holding out to him, but in a sudden flash. Drift sprinted past and snatched the fish. He couldn't quite slow down enough as he found himself tumble over a few times in a clumsy facion. He quickly gobbled up the morssel, enjoying the delight of leaving Rover emptry handed.

"Oh, sorry, was that yours?"



"Whaat do youu thinnnnk"



"That i came just in time, if im not mistaken, you've already had yours you greedy snake, Sara, how could you, i thought we were friends and here you are, no patience, feeding my fish to this snake just because i  Wasn't at the dinner table fast enough "

<p style="margin:0cm0cm0.0001pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">"Drift, you filthy fraud, yous is  here " She held up a nice large juicy cod with golden speckled scales that glittered in the light. "I was saving the best for you, but never mind, you've already eaten, i guess you didn't want the  Golden Mackral "

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Drifts heart sank, he lowered his hand and dropped to his knees, pleeing for his favourite fish. "I've made a mistake, please, let me at em, please, Sara forgive me for my gulty selflessness and heartless actions. I promise i can be perfect, i will never tease you for your ridiculous name or force you to fetch me rotten fish that i wasn't going to eat anyway or say that Lucious is a deformed lizard with an oversized mammoth tusk in his mouth ever again, i will never make you cry, i will never hold my self high, i will never

<p style="margin:0cm0cm0.0001pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Sara didn't buy it, she held the fish closer and closer to Rovers mouth, Rover himself seemed to be enjoying it, spicking out his tongue and touching the fish with it. Soon, Rover held it in his mouth and swallowed it whole. Drift cringed with horror and sadness at every second. Ans when it was all done, he stood up tall. "You filthy reptile, you show disrepsect for the greatness that is the  Golden Mackral , you show disrespect for your life, you show disrespect for your very taste budds but not savouring it" And with that, Drift tackled the snake in a play wrestling manner. They flipped around, rolling all over the place, trying to place eachother in vulnerable holds.

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">In a moment, Rovers head was pinned under Drifts foot, Rover imediatly spun his body around, wrapping Drift up so he couldn't move. Drift struggled his way out. And it became a showdown, they stared down eachother with eyes intent on defeating the other. But suddenly, there was a burst of rock and rubble, Everyone was sent back from the burst. Lucious eyes opened ever so slowly he could barely hear over the ringing in his head and he couldn't see anything clearly due to the blurr in his vision.

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">The area was full of dust, like a brown fog. He could see faint outlines of the people he knows in direct combat with random outlaws. He looked to the side, a large boulder in the short distance, leaning against some trees that are just about ready to give way. The boulder had made a long crater after it had landed and by the looks of it, it had taken one of us with it. As his eyes focused, he started to see who was fighting who. He could see Drift defending himself against what looked like five smaller dinosaurs, dilophosaurs. He saw Sara, jumping around kicking others around. Lucious tried to stand, feeling his limbs exusted and unwilling to comply. He eventully pushed himself off the ground. He still could not hear anything, but that didn't stop him from searching out the area. He limbed off toward the boulder, slowly and gentally. He stopped over the ruined ground, squashed flesh, and a familiar broken head. The head of a dear friend. Rover. it was qracked open, dismembered from the body, broken jawed and white eyed. Lifeless, memoryless, unable to compute anything at all.

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">Lucious burst into tears, he looked up to his fighting friends. Although he couldn't hear or see very far, he got a frightening fear for him friends. They were all fighting, beating down dilos, kicking them out, biting their necks. But suddenly, everyone, the dilos, Drift and Sara stopped because of something Lucious couldn't hear. Then everything started running, all but Sara. Instead of runnning, she just looked to Lucious, eye contact was formed. Her eyes said everything, fear, sadness, guilt, regret, love. From the blurr within the dust could, a shadow overtook it, and then a boulder enters the fray and whiped the slate clean. Lucious may not be able to hear a thing, but he could tell he was yelling to his friends. Who disappeared from sight as the boulder swept them away. Luciousous heart sank and his lungs broke. The power of the boulder sent him flying away, out of the mix. He flew out the dust clouds formed by the boulders and went rolling and bouncing down a steep hill.

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<p style="margin:12pt0cm;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">He opened his eyes once more. The light burned his eyes as they entered past his eye lids. As he focused on the area around him, he saw he was in a dark enclosed space, the ground flat and brown with dirt. This enclosed spaces walls was made of leaves and bushes that grew around the sides. He looked up at the sun, it was otherwise blocked out by the thickness of the leaves, but he could see a hole in the top where he had crashed through. As he held his arm over his eyes, he saw a strange figure in the corner of his eye. It was hanging from the leaves of the ceiling. It was a large bat.

<p class="MsoNormal">“That was quite a fall you made there” said the bat.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Lucious looked up, he tried to stand, but felt immeasurable pain in his body.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“Careful buddy, don’t rush it”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“Yeh, or what, what difference it is going to make, my closest friends, they…” Lucious couldn’t bring himself to say what he ment, it was all too much for him.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“I heard the commotion, the Empire is really causing problems”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Lucious looked up the bat “It wasn’t so stupid empire, it was a couple of darn outlaws”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“Who do you think control the outlaws fella?”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Lucious didn’t bother responding, he curled himself up and started sobering over his arms.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“You must be Lucious, the third generation lucky bitten, son of Pike”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“Yeh, whats it too ya?”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">The bat didn’t respond, seeing as how his charms didn’t manage to help at all. After a moment of silence, he finally asked “I assume Drift didn’t make it?”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Lucious looked up, suspicious eyes, his glare was piercing right into the bats little yellow dots that sat over his face “Who on earth are you”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“They call me the Listener. I tell people what they want to hear for a profit, I am one of three trusted by the source to hear, know and say what they tell us”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“So what? Did Drift come here looking for information”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“No, he was giving it, Drift is another one of us, he calls himself the Informer, we have been told something is coming, and it will only get worse from here”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“I don’t believe you”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">“You don’t have to, but your not going to accomplish anything from here”

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Lucious and a strange large bat said to be called Icho are going through the fields, as fast as they could go, and they soon stopped at the sight of massive wooden weapons. They held large boulders in their hands, and they assumed they were what shot them over the large distance.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">They snuck up. Seeing a strange evil looking dilo standing in the middle of the crowd there, two large Gigantopithicus controlled the giant wooden weapons. And a few smaller dilos stood by his side.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">They crepped up from behind, and then they attacked. Lucious proceeded to ignore everything but his goal. He charged through, bashing dilos out the way to get to the leader. The leader himself turned around, but didn’t flinch nor left a finger. Lucious leapt forth, mouth open and claws extended. But he was suddenly bash out out the way by the large ape. He regained his footing and charged, jumping around the ape, the ape smashed its mighty arms on the ground and reach out around for the crocodile, but he wasn’t quick enough to stop Lucious from snapping the neck of the leader. Lucious looked behind him, at the crowd of dilos he had just avoided, the bat that was screeming so loud at them some were on the ground, rolling around with their paws over their ears. And in there, out of the forest came running toward him, a large, yellow, grey and black terror bird.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">Lucious was to far into his mistake to go back, he rushed the kill, and now those two giant apes had Lucious in their hands. Lucious called to Drift, as Drift called to Lucious.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">It was all to late. The ape dumped Lucious ontop a boulder and pulled a lever, Lucious was shot into the air, so high, so fast, it’s a wonder how he made it to this day. But here he is. In those moments, before the terror bird he tried to avenge was a speck in the distance, he saw the poor bird become overwhelmed by the crowd and apes. It was all too late.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">This was the future for the Lucious we all remembered, the young leader who fought with style and took the lead with skill. This here is the backstory of someone you have never met, you know his name and you know who he was, but do you really know who he is.

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">No matter what, there are some things he will never tell you. Not until he is ready to do so, that’s not now, and it will not be for years to come. When his partner is an old memory that he no longer crys to think about, when Rover was a legend that you would hang on your wall, and when Drift is home, safe and sound.
