Chapter 9

While the group were on top of the tree, they've been waiting for an hour or two. While waiting, they see the Velociraptors from below, and they are still feasting on the corpse of their victim, Usui. While they were still devouring their meal, they look up and sniffed the air and decided to leave. They left the corpse with open flesh and guts, with blood all over the body.

Naruse: "Why did they leave?"

Chris: "They must have been in a hurry for something."

Y/N: "I think they must have realized what territory their in."

Y/N thinks and deducted that the direction where the raptors came from when the herbivores caused a stampede and that they're in a different part of the jungle. Y/N also mentions that there was a horrible foul sent of old urine coming from the bottom of the tree when they climbed up on to it, which could mean that they're in a territory of another possible predator that is more deadly than the raptors. So they decided to get down from the tree and head for the medical facility.

Y/N: "Lets get going."

Y/N notices that the other group was missing.

Y/N: "Wait, where are the others?"

Chris: "I think they must went that way."

Chris points to the other path where the other group was, they must have already left on their own. Y/N told everyone the directions of the medical facility was so that they shouldn't have no problem figuring out where to go. So after a bit of walking, they stumbled upon an old dirt trail. Y/N checks his map to see where they could possibly be. He sees that they were on an old hiking path and it seems to lead to the facility.

Y/N: "We're almost there. Let's keep going."

It seems that the others have made it to the facility seeing that it's all clear. They went in unknowingly to them that they were being watched by big yellow-green eyes and a quiet clicking growls that can be heard in the distance. The sun was almost starting to set. Y/N and the rest of the gang walked the sunlight, but as they followed, Y/N had found a bunch of footprints on the ground, they were human footprints, which means that the others were here before inspecting them. It seems that they came this way an hour ago, knowing that they are going in the right direction. They followed the trial.

Timeskip

Kai: "Heh, heh, heh... it was easy to arrive without encountering any dinos at this time, right?"

Y/N and the group were outside as they head to entrance of the medical facility. They found more tracks of their classmates, and there were also dinosaur tracks as well. Y/N inspects what kind of dinosaur.

Chris: "Come on. Don't expect us to wait here."

They all head inside, but Y/N was standing there for a minute to see if there could be another dinosaur coming to their path.

Oribe: "Y/N, what's wrong?"

Y/N: "I don't see any other dinosaur coming. But I'm fully aware of what the others were doing before we got here. Let's get in."

Oribe: "Right."

They all went inside the facility, into the hallways, and they see a room with a few medical beds. The group relaxed and sat down on one of the seats. They were relieved that they had a long journey to get there safely. A few classmates took a walk around the facility and they see a big shower room with several showers and with curtains. A shower interior filled with everal showers, a toilet and a toilet sink.

Naruse: "Hey, there's a shower room."

Jinno: "Oh, thank God. I really needed a bath."

Oribe: "It's a good proposition to wash off the smell of our sweat."

Each one of the rooms is separated for different genders. So the boys and the girls went to their shower rooms and took a shower to have some refreshing.

On the Women's Shower Room

The girls were showering their bodies with shampoo and soap to clean themselves. They all felt the hot water and felt like it's paradise.

Jinno: "It feels so good."

Miura: "Oh my goodness! I feel revived."

Naruse: "It feels like we've finally returned to civilized society."

Oribe: "Okay, once you're done showering, please make sure to wash off any of the shampoo that you use. I have a feeling that any remaking smell will be noticed by a dinosaur."

Miura: "We won't have to worry about them while we're around here, right?"

Matsuoka: "Right."

Meanwhile, on the Men's Shower Room

The boys were also taking a shower to clean themselves from sweat.

Kai: "Oh. This is relaxing."

Chris: "You said it, bro."

Y/N was taking a shower as well, but he was thinking about the nightmare he had about the T-Rex the other night. Y/N was worried that he might lose Oribe.

Chris: "Y/N? What's wrong?"

Y/N: "It's nothing."

Chris: "Are you sure? You look worried."

Y/N: "No, I'm not."

Chris still notices that Y/N was worrying about something from the look on his face. But then he said,

Y/N: "I was just worried that I might screw up on our mission to get all of us off of this island. I think it was my fault for leading us to this hazardous place."

Chris: "That isn't true, man. All of us would be dead by those meat-eating dinos if you hadn't shown up. I understand that you're afraid of losing other people, especially your girlfriend. But you've helped us to avoid danger with your own might. Do not let anything bother you. I know that we will make it."

Kai: "All that matters is that we have to keep the faith."

Y/N: "Thank you."

Y/N smiled after hearing what Chris had said to him about encouraging to survive on the island. He felt glad that he had a friend who always helped him out in times of trouble. And by the time they were finished showering their hairs and bodies, they were drying themselves with their towels in the changing room with lockers. .

Chris: "Hey, uh, Y/N!"

Y/N: "Yeah?"

Chris: "You know, I have something for you to give to Oribe."

Y/N: "What is it?"

Chris looked at his bag as he searches an item that had been in his bag. He pulls it out; it was a sterling silver rhinoceros beetle ring that is beautifully crafted with the beauty and intrigue of Japan's popular insects. Chris showed it to Y/N and was amazed to see the looks of this fascinating jewelry.

Chris: "I've saved my money for this gift for you to give. She likes those kinds of beetles, right?"

Y/N: "Wow! This is really captivating. Yeah, she does like rhino beetles. Thank you for the gift idea... Although, I haven't thought about giving her anything."

Chris: " You are my friend, and it's the least I can do for you. And If you need my advice, then just have a talk before hand about how much you love her. I mean, I really like seeing you guys get together."

Y/N: "You know, I'm actually glad you picked silver. It's one of the unique metal that is been loved by many people."

Chris: "Oh, and, uh, If you'd want, you can write little note saying "Just because I love you. But do it at the right time, it's your choice.

Y/N: "Okay, I'll think about it."

Chris: "Oh, and one more thing... just tell her that I didn't brought her that ring, you kept it for surprise."

Y/N kept the ring in his bag to keep it for safety, and thanked Chris again. He felt glad. Now Y/N thought about giving Oribe the rhinoceros nettle ring, when the time is right.

Y/N: "Anyway, while we were walking to the entrance, I noticed that there were some human footprints, I'm guess it's the other group that got left behind. Let's go wait for the girls on the medical room and we'll search for them to see if they are here."

Chris/Kai: "Right."
