THE RIVER

[sparednothing]

[YOU CHOSE THE RIVER ROUTE Too bad, Mama decides to give this group chase. There's a cave up ahead, a small waterfall partially concealing the entrance, but it should provide safe cover, if you can make it]

[Oh, this was so not good. Danny blanches and runs.

How fast could those things run anyway? He desperately tries to remember the last dino horror flick he'd seen.

...Oh, right. Everyone died in that one.

He tries to move faster.]

[deltacain]

[There'll be the sound of a gunshot, aimed to skim across the Tyrannosaur's nose.

The source? One Jason Bourne with a rifle. He did, however, mean to shoot it through the eye. The rifle's sights were off...]

[sparednothing]

[Danny was lucky, as Mama drops her head to snap him up, the rifle goes off in her face. She screeches in pain, backing up, tiny arms falling as she tries to shake the sting from her nose, blood dripping down that very long way onto the ground below]

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny skids to a halt as he turns to try and see what happened. That was a gun shot, right?]

[deltacain]

[Bourne is up, running from his position before mama discerns where the shot came from. He comes up on Danny, and puts a hand on his back, shoving him.]

Run. Don't stare.

[sparednothing]

[Better keep running, guys, Mama is bearing down on you, and fast]

[schrodingersghost]

[....Right. Running was good. Danny takes off as fast as he can. Good thing he had all that experience outrunning ghosts, right/.]

You know? Never thought I'd miss the Fenton Ghost Assault Vehicle.

[deltacain]

Save your breath for running.

[Jason doesn't want to lug your sorry ass from T-Rex dinner, k?]

[sparednothing]

[The cave is, mercifully, very close. You're nearly there, and she seems to be slowing, unwilling to get too close]

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny pours the last of his energy into speeding up. He trips at the last moment and goes tumbling into the cave. But at least he made it, right?]

[deltacain]

[Bourne is going to turn as he goes through the waterfall, keeping his rifle trained on the dinosaur.]

[sparednothing]

[She stops as they vanish into the cave, before turning back to the running people, looking for a meal that isn't hidden in a pile of rock]

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny groans as he climbs back to his feet.]

For the record? I am never, ever doing this again. In fact, I think I hate dinosaurs now. The movies of my childhood lied.

[deltacain]

I'm pretty sure we can add this to the list of things to not do.

[He takes a few steps back from the edge.]

Get as far back in the cave as you can.

[schrodingersghost]

Can do.

No way am I staying anywhere close to that thing.

[deltacain]

Are you hurt? You took a pretty bad fall.

[Jason is going to be putting his rifle behind his back, but draw a handgun. Can't be too sure.]

[schrodingersghost]

...I can't tell. [He shrugs, and winces as the motion pulls on some of his injuries.]

I was in the trailer that nearly fell over the cliff last night. So I was already beat up.

[deltacain]

See if there's a doctor back there. We don't want injuries slowing people down.

[schrodingersghost]

Yeah, yeah, I'll check.

[But seriously, what were the chances that a doctor had made it in here?]

[deltacain]

[ Pretty damn high.]

Make sure you do. I'll keep watch for the Tyrannosaur.

[schrodingersghost]

Have fun with Barney the amazing grudge holder.

[deltacain]

I'm pretty sure if someone took your kid you'd be a bit pissed off, too.

[Sore subject, Danny. Basically, if anything threatened Bourne's kids... he'd be a human version of that T-Rex.]

[schrodingersghost]

Yeah.... and they got the kid back. A while ago. With his leg all patched up. Pretty sure he would have died if his leg hadn't gotten patched up, you know?

I've dealt with ghosts that were on less of a vengeance kick.

[deltacain]

These are animals. They don't have the same kind of intelligence we do.
