Late at night, the moonlight shines down in the cave at top of the mountain ledge. The ledge sure was beautiful. A few bushes lay near the cave and a few steps away is a small pond where the velociraptors drink. If you stand in front of the pond you will see a beautiful view of the forest they once lived in and then a few mountains in the distance. It is midnight and a few clouds float in the sky. A small cricket hops around the pond, hiding in the growth surrounding the pond. It chirps it's beautiful song hoping for a mate to come find it.

A few hours later the sun slowly rises and the sky turns into a rainbow of pinks, purples, oranges, and blues. The sun's rays awaken the birds who begin singing their wonderful song. A small mouse hurries so she can get to her nest before day.

"Wake up, Speckles. Wake up Rocket. Wake up Rory. Wake up Dory, "Momma calls in her soft gentle voice, "Come on, we have a lot to learn today."

"ugh," they all moan as they were woken by their mother.

"But I don't wanna wake up" Rocket says with a moan.

"Me neither" Rory says.

"Okay. I guess you don't want to go hunting with us" Momma says as she leaves the cave.

"Hunting! I want to go hunting!" they all shout excitedly as they all spring up and run towards Momma.

"Alright then come on" Momma says

A few hours later, Momma and Papa walk slowly as the kids pounce on everything they see, whether it's a leaf or an insect. However they always make sure that they stay close behind.

"Hey Momma, why is Papa covered in blue and turquoise and green feathers, while you have brown feathers?" Speckles asks.

"Well the males need their colorful feathers so that they can attract mates," Momma explains briefly.

"What is a mate?" Rory asks.

"Someone you love to no end who you stay with until you die or your mate dies, usually. Sometimes that's not the case for some dinosaurs" Momma said.

"Why do you need a mate?" Speckles asks.

"That's for another time," Momma says.

"Awww. Why?" they all whine.

"Because you guys aren't the right age" Papa says winking at Momma.

"What's that?" Dory asks pointing at a large footprint.

"I think we better go this way," Momma says turning away from the footprint.

In the distance a tyrannosaurus gives out a blood curdling roar that shakes the kids and they hide in between Momma's and Papa's legs shivering in fear. Momma and Papa look around and then begin to take them home.
