"Exactly! That's why we have to make sure that bruise gets better!" Jake held up his hands when she poked him.
Alex narrowed her eyes as some mist sprayed in them. She lowered herself quietly into the water below them and swam to the edge of the pool. The sun streamed brightly through the trees above her, pouring confidence into her movements. She wasn't afraid a dinosaur would attack her without her knowledge in the broad daylight. She crawled out onto the bank, squeezing her hair, then made her way towards the side of the cave, where a rocky ledge created a natural ladder. Alex reached up and tested one of the stones jutting out of the wall, and began to climb upwards. Once she scaled the wall, she pulled herself up to see a steadily flowing river, which tricked over the edge to form the waterfall. Her eyes sparkled at the sight of a small rabbit-like creature lapping up the water, which she recalled was a Nuralagus. She ventured a little ways down the river, satisfied with what she had seen, before deciding to turn back. Suddenly, a large pterodactyl swooped down from the sky, digging its talons into the Nuralugas's side. It shrieked and narrowly escaped, darting into the nearby forest. The pterodactyl landed and turned, catching sight of Alex.
