Chapter 3
Finding Mark
Good! Ian, you’re awake. Sorry I blasted you with water. We have to go find Mark. “I’m injured forever,” he complained. “You are not…” I said, “you will heal quickly”. “How?” he asked. I explained that water might injure him, but he will heal just as fast.
As we set off, I heard some distant screaming. I figured it was Simon screaming that Mark was injured but I wasn’t sure. I ran to his house.
”OF COURSE I AM IT’S MARK THAT’S NOT OKAY!!!” he screamed back.
Simon explained to me how Mark was thrown off of a cliff.
”Is he okay?” I asked. Then I realized how stupid I sounded. Of course he was not okay. Well, at the time no but he would heal. Then I sensed something. Mark just landed in the water. “Okay guys Ian and I are going to jump off this cliff and Mark will bring us back up it. You ready Ian?
”Let’s go!” he replied. We jumped. The fall took forever. I finally sensed we were getting close. I looked down. Bad move! I landed face first onto the water. Mark was so startled he almost pelted me. Ian had landed ten times better than I did.
”Come on!” Mark said.
”I’ll stay here guys. I’ll heal before I come up.” I said.
”You sure?” asked Mark.
”I CAN TUNNEL!!!” I screamed. Ian and Mark started climbing.

An hour later I decided to climb up the tower. I made it up in five minutes. The whole group was worried. Even Robert and Eric were there.
”Where were you?” Ian asked.
”Just for once Ian! You know where I was!!!” I said angrily.
”Oh yeah!” he replied.
if there had only been another dinosaur around… Mark would be gone forever.
