The Island of the Lost

The Island of the Lost was written by Johnny Goldtimbers
==Chapter: 1 The Island==
“All hands, Stave away to Isla de los Perdidos”! The Captain ordered from the helm! With no question the sailors of the Forth rate Ship of the Line HMS Adventure they scrambled to their stations to make more sail. Meanwhile on deck two men sitting at ever so nicely set tea table enjoying their time with conversation about the Island. One of the men spoke to the other “I’ve heard about your last visit to the island Johnny old boy” The elderly man who was named Johnny responded ever so calmly “Well Walter me and this island only met contact with each other, we never got to know each other before I was rescued again”. “Recued, Contact, You where marooned on this island?” responded Walter. “Well I was for two days but I’ve heard more than enough stories to name this island dangerous!” said Johnny so concerned. “Oh please the natives probably spread those rumors to scare of us Hunters” Walter said without any doubt. The lookout shouted “Land Ahoy!”Johnny then smiled and began sipping on a cup of tea. The Captain came down from the helm and saluted Johnny at the tea table before speaking. “My Lord I calculate we are two miles away from land” The Captain said so nervously. Walter glanced at the Captain’s look before saying “Oh come now you don’t actually believe in the Island’s Curse do you?” Walter announced so surprised. “Clearly even you shouldn’t be so superstitious about a piece of rocky land!” Walter continued but was interrupted by Johnny. “Now Walter they don’t call it Isla de los Perdidos for nothing!” Johnny interrupted. “Johnny I don’t know how you Spanish can speak at all, nothing but jibberish to me!” Walter argued. Johnny rolled his eyes. “Isla de los Perdidos or Island of the Lost” Johnny complained. The Captain moved his eyes looking at whoever was talking before interrupting the two old men. “Oh My word!” the captain shouted when he looked on the beach of the island covered with wrecked ships. Johnny and Walter stopped arguing and observed the beach from the railing of the Ship. “There is Ships from every Region of the World all ship wrecked along this island” Johnny declared. “Well maybe they were all left here……. Maybe there is a ship collector here or maybe….” Walter Spat out before Johnny interrupted again.”Walter someone doesn’t just leave ships around a bloody island to rot away in this heat” Johnny said so nervously. Early the next morning Johnny and Walter came out of their Cabins and looks out into the foggy pitch black island. Johnny looked at his Golden pocket watch and closed it.”5 o’clock excellent, Well! Let the Hunt begin” Johnny said energetically as he played a Horn. Crewmen suddenly jumped from their beds and Hammocks and ran up and formed a line for the Captain and the two High Ranking British Officers to inspect. Johnny and Walter chattered about plans for the island while walking down the long line of British sailors. The Captain came from his quarters and joined the two men. Johnny spoke to the Captain and then he nodded. “Lower the Longboat! Weight Anchor! Fold the Sails!” The ordered the Captain. Johnny unfolded a Union Jack and tied it to a long pole. As the two hunters and the six sailors were lowered into the ocean in the Longboat the two hunters were armed with a Dao sword, Musket, pistol, blunderbuss, and a Hunting Knife. The six sailors each grabbed an ore and together road toward shore. Walter sat in the back reading a book while Johnny was striking a pose in the front of the Long Boat while holding the British Flag that waved in the wind. Johnny took out a small spyglass and spotted a large concentration of rocks and ordered the sailors to stop and wait for the rest of their camp supplies and men to arrive.As the five other Longboats arrived each captained by a type of Lieutenant they all met up with Johnny. The Lieutenant from the nearest longboat to Johnny’s longboat shouted “Lord Goldtimbers, Orders Sir!” Johnny responded by telling the Officer to look at the jagged rocks that blocked their way towards the Island’s long and shipwreck covered beach. Johnny Then ordered all the longboats to follow his longboat through the maze of jagged rocks. As hours went by Johnny remained patient while Walter kept looking through his spyglass to spot land. Johnny then opened his eyes and yelled “Land Dead Ahead!” Johnny pulled out a bottle of aged Scotch and poured everyone in the boat a glass he stood up and cheered “Jolly Good mates we’ve made it towards the shore. “No wonder these ships got wrecked! They hit all these blasted rocks in the fog at night!” Walter trying to reason the vast amount of ships wrecked on shore. The boat hit the soft and white sand of the beach with a thud. Johnny jumped out while carrying a Union Jack and stuck the pole in the ground. “This land is forever claimed in the Glorious name of His Majesty King George II of the Great British Empire!” Johnny declared ever so loudly. “Fine then maybe we can his Royal Highness off his Royal Bottom and take him here for hunting one Year” Walter said sarcastically. Suddenly musket fire was heard from the dense jungles of the Island. Tropical birds flew from the middle of the Jungle. One shot then another thirty seconds later. “Musket shots here?” Walter pondered. As the longboats just hit shore they heard the shots too and sprung from the Longboats and British Marines aimed their muskets into the jungle. Then a loud man’s scream was heard. A few seconds later there was silence.
==Chapter: 2 The Journey into the Jungle==
As everyone stood in silence not another sound from anything was heard. “Ok I’m a little scared now” Walter said with fear. Johnny just smiled and replied “Oh come now you dragged me from all the way from England to go hunting on a Godforsaken Island far off the coast of South America and now you’re scared?” Johnny put his rifle behind his back and started to look through all the nautical things that washed up on shore. Johnny looked through many things and found a rum bottle. “Oh good rum I’m bloody thirsty!” Walter spat out has he grabbed the bottle and pulled off the cork. When he put it to his lips sand poured from the bottle into his mouth and imminently he spat it out and threw the bottle. Johnny caught the bottle right before it hitting the warm white sand and broke it off on a nearly piece of ship’s hull. Johnny looks around near the shattered glass and picked up an old rolled up piece of paper. “Well this might be helpful” Johnny declared. “Bah sand and a piece of worthless paper, why don’t we have any rum” Walter complained. A lieutenant handed Walter a glass of Rum with the bottle in the other hand. Walter grabbed and chugged down the bottle while Johnny took the glass and drank in small sips. Two British Marines moves a table from a longboat and placed it right in front of Johnny. Johnny opened the paper and studied it closely. “It’s a map of the island” Johnny said cheerfully. Walter then picked up the map and held it up to the jungle to get a bearing. Johnny then noticed that there was something written on the back of the map. “Beware for all who enter the Jungle shall we hunted” Johnny read out loud. Walter turned it around and laughed. “Hunted, Ha! Were the Hunters here!” Johnny said so wisely “But remember if weren’t not careful the prey shall we the hunters and we the prey, aye?” “Aye, well time to set up came” Walter said so happily. Johnny said so surprised “You WANT to set up camp? Since when! You just go and make setting up the camp more difficult! Remember Tibet?” “Nope, I forget the past and look for Adventure…….. and well I’m tired and hungry” Walter responded. Johnny cackled while Walter rolled his eyes. Johnny then suddenly stopped and Ordered out “Gather the supplies and head for the Jungle!” The men then stood at attention and ran for the boats to gather the supplies. When everyone was loaded with either supplies or meaningless junk Walter brought they headed for the Jungle. Johnny and Walter took out their Dao swords and chopped their way through the dense and thick tropical jungle making a clear and wide path for the Marines and sailors to make through with their Belongings. After hiking two hours Walter spots a small waterfall and river near an opening of trees.”Perfect running water” Walter announced. Johnny then started to tie together long poles and stuck them in the ground. “What in the bloody world are you doing?”Johnny raised The Union Jack on the small branches of the make shift flagpole and saluted it. “Oh that is what you’re doing” Walter continued and saluted the flag. As the men unloaded the supplies and started to put up the tents Johnny took a flint rock and a piece of metal from a broken pistol he found on the shore earlier and gathered sticks, logs, dried grass and rocks and assorted them into a camp fire. Walter looked on while eating some bread has Johnny sparked the flint and metal and quickly made a large fire. A total of seventy two British Marines and three Lieutenants and one Commander set up their camp right next to the two game hunter’s tents. Johnny had some fancy furniture, tables, chairs, and rum cabinet put in his tent along with a massive Indian rug underneath. Johnny was almost done with setting up his hammock tied to the large sticks holding up the tent when Walter came in and announced so happily “The tea is ready my lordship” Johnny replied in the same tone “Thank you General Morgan” then they laughed and put a hand on each other’s shoulder and walked towards the group of men laughing and sharing stories near the camp fire. Johnny and Walter sat at a white linen covered tea table while one of the ships cooks placed Scones, Soup, and Tea along with cooked salted meat on their table. Johnny enjoyed the well earned meal and listened to the stories the British Marines told. “Some say there is an evil so terrible that you can feel it in the air on this rock” one Marine shared. After listening to the story Johnny spoke up and told them a true tale of the island. “Some say that all these ships where brought here by a mysterious force that pushed all these ships into the rocks and marooned the sailors on this so called rock where they tried to survive in this very jungle, Some say who where just marooned here could hear the screams of the dying sailors” Johnny explained. The Men went silent. “Good thing that’s the other side of the island that is forbidden” The men relaxed and some increased the watch for the camp to keep an eye out for anything strange. After the meal and a shower in the waterfall Johnny and Walter retired to their tents. Johnny moved his small oil lamp to the table and took out a small book from a secret drawer in the Rum cabinet and took out a quill pen and starting writing about the days back on the island. A few minutes later Johnny closed his book and went to sleep in his Hammock for the night.
==Chapter: 3 The Natives==
The next morning Johnny woke up with the sound of loud drum beats coming from a distance from the Camp. When Johnny quickly got dressed and ran outside all of the British Marines where waiting for him and just looked at him. “Where doomed by your doing Goldtimbers” shouted a Marine. Johnny thought to himself that he needed to destroy his men’s fears of the Island so he thought of a quick inspiration. “Gentlemen, you overcame pirates, French, and Spanish but you cannot take on a bunch of primitive cavemen with sticks and rocks? I truly thought the British could of destroyed the Aztecs long ago more efficiently then the Spanish! Are you men or are you cowards! Are you not just the British Army or the Navy, You are not the King’s Marines! Johnny lectured so bravely. A Soldier stepped out of the crowd of Soldiers and yelled out “AYE!” which was followed by more soldiers. “Oh I’m sorry I couldn’t hear you are you not the King’s Marines?!” They all replied so loudly “AYE”. “This is no longer a Hunt! This is a Fight for our Land, The King’s land!” Johnny marched through the opening plains of the Island followed by his men. Johnny looked behind his shoulder and still saw fear in the men’s eyes. Johnny singed loudly the British Grenadiers to lift the men’s Spirits. Johnny sang first then was joined by two soldiers with a drum and a flute. Johnny held up his hand to make the singing and music stop. Johnny moved to the side of the men and ordered “Make set and ready! Step lively! Johnny signaled the two soldiers to continue playing the March and ordered a sweep of the native’s villages. When they moved through the brush the village was ransacked and many natives lie dead on the ground. “Check everywhere! Someone didn’t do this, something did this!” Walter stated from just arriving to the village. “Oh looks who finally up” Johnny said so happily. Walter rolled his eyes and turned over a dead native warrior. “Bite marks around the neck and a single puncture wound on the spinal cord” Walter spoke so quietly. “No man could do this; it must have been an animal.” Johnny added with concern. Johnny spotted a trail of blood and signaled Walter to take out his pistol. The two British Officers pulled out their pistols and slowly followed the trail of blood which ended near a statue of a lizard. “Eh, Ugly looking thing isn’t it.” Walter spat out discus. Johnny remembered this statue from when he was in the Amazon serving the Spanish Army. A flash of light appeared and a man in Conquistador Armor was riding on a horse with a large group of Spanish Conquistadors when he stumbled on the same Lizard Statue. Johnny looked curious and got off his horse and inspected the Statue. “Estamos cerca de su templo. Preparaos para erradicar esta oposición!” The Spanish Comandante announced. Another Flash appeared and The Spanish Commander and his men were riding through an Aztec City and slaughtering the Aztecs. Walter’s voice could be heard by Johnny and he snapped out of a trance. Then Suddenly Native Warriors came from the trees and bushes and surrounded the two elderly men. Johnny and Walter aimed their pistols at them but there was too many. “Why do you always get me into more problems Johnny?” Walter yelled with anger. “I have no idea but I’m the one that always drags you out Walt” Johnny replied so calmly. The natives looked at each other while watching the two elderly strangers argue when a native gave a glance at two blow pipe warriors and shot darts into both Johnny and Walter’s neck. They both became dizzy and lost consciousness. Johnny woke up tied to a throne made out of gold while Walter was tied upside down dangling from a tree under a deep and wide hole in the ground. The Natives began putting gold jewelry all over Johnny while they kept poking Walter. “Hey, cut it out you bloody barbarians!” Walter yelled. Johnny looked confused but pondered the situation. Finally an elderly Native most likely the priest put an old and rusty Spanish conquistador helmet on Johnny’s head. Johnny began speaking Spanish if they knew any. “libre de la uno molesto y me diga lo que está mal, lo que causó esta destrucción”. An Aztec replied in Spanish and soon they were freed and taken to a Cave behind a large waterfall and guarded by many Native Warriors. The Aztec spoke Spanish to Johnny and pointed to a cave painting of a Lizard. “It’s the same lizard from the Statue from before?” Walter concluded with curiosity. “It is one of their Gods……. Xiuhcoatl” He has caused this they say. Sending giant retiles after the natives” Johnny translated from the Aztec. Walter was puzzled and smiled. “Looks like we are going hunting for Giant Lizards now” Walter announced with a cheer. The Aztecs showed the two travelers to the deep pit where they dangled Walter over. The Aztec spoke again to Johnny. “They live down there. Most of them do. They say there are fast smaller lizards that live near the Volcano” After making peace with the Surviving Aztecs Johnny and Walter meet up with the Marines which sent a search for them. “Well looks like we’re going after some Lizards! Boys” Walter announced to the men. They marched on for an hour before finding another Pit. As everyone surrounded the Pit they could see a small light far down. “How do you suppose how deep it is?” Walter asked with fear. Johnny then lit a grenade and tossed it down the pit. Seconds pasted before a small boom was heard. “Hmmm. Judging by the length of the grenade’s fuse which would have lasted another ten seconds before exploding but it just shattered on the bottom of this pit. I would say a good fifty to sixty feet deep. Just then a roar of an ungodly creature could be heard from below. “Do you suppose that is the big ones or the small ones? Eh, Johnny” Walter said with fear. Johnny replied “Oh those are just the babies most likely”. Johnny had an idea to bring out these meat eating lizards. “All of you return to base camp and await my signal, but you six come with me and Walter” Johnny ordered. With no Question most of the men left for the camp. “What in the world are you doing Johnny? What if one of those lizards comes out of hiding”? Walter cried out in fear. “Exactly what I want them to do” Johnny replied so cautiously. After chopping through the dense inner jungle for three hours something moved in the bushes. “What was that” Johnny whispered while he and the rest of the group aimed their muskets. A loud hissing noise could be heard from the dense and difficult terrain.
==Chapter: 4 The Hunt has Begun==
As the eight men spit up in groups of two to cover more ground it happened. Walter kept his mind on the target while Johnny was being more aware of the predators stalking them from the bushes. After five minutes of hunting they heard screams of the Marines they spit up with. Walter got out his blunderbuss with one hand and had his musket in the other. Johnny got out Dragoon’s pistol and as the two men moved closer and closer they saw a familiar face. It was a Marine standing up but he was covered with blood. “Soldier, are you ok?” Johnny asked with caution. The Marine’s body was thrown at the two hunters. “Move”! Walter screamed with any doubt they dodged the body and looked up at the predator that has been stalking them for all this time. It was a reptile with a large jagged teeth mouth that stood on two feet. They had razor sharp claws. “What in the name of God is thumb|206px|right|The Raptor's Theme song they made John Williams preform O_Othat”! Walter asked with fear. Johnny replied nervously “I’ve heard about these they are man eating reptiles. They where suppose to be extinct millions of years ago”! Then ten more came from the trees and the bushes and surrounded the two men. The Raptors roared and charged with their mouths open at the men. Johnny shot the first one in the neck. Has Walter shot one in the chest it had no effect. “These things won’t die!” Walter screamed. Johnny then aimed his musket for the nearest Lizard and shot it right in between the eyes and it fell right near his boot. “Walter, shoot it in the head! Quickly” Johnny yelled. Walter then started charging it at it with his bayonet and stabbed its body. The Lizard still tried to bite Walter but that is when Johnny shot it with his pistol. Walter threw it off and as soon as that one died a new one then jumped right on Walter. Walter pushed the musket against the lizard to get away from its mouth. Johnny was then taking lizards down one by one with his pistols. “Walter! Stop fooling around with these overgrown lizards and let’s go”! Walter then grabbed his blunderbuss and aimed it at the Raptor’s head and shot it. As it recoiled and finally fell to the ground Johnny grabbed Walter’s arm and has they ran through the jungle they reloaded quickly and shot any Raptor in their path. They moved with speed and fear but pure endurance fueled their souls to keep pushing on. The Raptors which were built for speed they moved faster than the two elderly men. They quickly climbed up a tree. “They can’t reach us from up here” Walter said with a smile. Soon the Raptors disappeared into the bushes. Johnny and Walter knew they were still down there so they moved across the trees until then came across a Lieutenant lying on the ground. Johnny yelled to him with curiosity “Lieutenant, are you alive? What happen?” The Lieutenant moved his arm up and tried to get up but he was injured badly. Johnny then shot the man in pain with his pistol. “What are you doing? Johnny!” Walter screamed in fear. “Watch” Johnny whispered. Nothing happened. Johnny and Walter moved down the trees and then shot a loud blunderbuss shot into the air. The Lizards screamed and moved from the bushes. Johnny then threw his only smoke bomb and blinded the Lizards has they escaped. The Raptors then saw the Lieutenant trying to move away but the Raptor jabbed its claw into the man and picked him up with his leg. The man screamed in pain. The Raptor then threw the man at a tree and the rest of the raptors ate the man’s limps while he was alive. Johnny and Walter then turned around to see where the screams were coming from but then they fell down the pit that they had seen before that was used by the natives has a sacrifice ground. As they fell they fell down they finally saw what was down below the dark hole. They started hitting trees and finally landed on bushes. When Johnny got up he was amazed what he saw. Walter got up and started complaining about his cloths but then Johnny grabbed his head and turned it towards what he saw. It was a beautiful jungle filled hole in the Island. There was an everlasting waterfall with a large river that stretched beyond the eye could see. Then they spotted giant long necked and tailed lizards that stood on all for feet. Has they roared and started eating leaves off the trees Johnny smiled. Walter backed away but then Johnny cheerfully said “Don’t Worry they are herbivores, they eat plants not meat” Walter then relaxed and gazed in wonder. As Walter and Johnny walked down near the valley they approached more herbivores. “This is amazing! These creatures have not been seen in over four millions of years! They survived! This explains a lot why this Island is called "Isla de los Perdidos” not just the Island of the Lost! It’s more like the Island of the Lost World” Johnny announced so cheerfully. Walter then stood up on a rock and held his hands up. “I’m King of the World”! Walter cheered. Johnny laughed. “Johnny, we can make a fortune on this! Do you know how many people would pay to see this! See creatures that haven’t been around in millions of years”! Walter explained with excitement. Johnny then found a perfect branch to be his cane. “Walter, you know what those things have done. We can’t control these beasts.” Johnny spoke with wisdom. Then a large Roar that they have not heard before startled the two hunters and Walter then just stood up and looked at Johnny with a face full of Fear. “We need to find a way out of this hole and back to our camp and get out of here”. “Agreed” Johnny replied.
==Chapter: 5 The Lost World==
The two men with muskets in their hands trekked through the lizard infested jungle hour upon hour until they reached the entrance of a cavern. A large amount of footsteps could be heard from the other side of the Cavern. “Johnny, what is that……. What is that noise?” Walter asked with curiosity. “That my good Sir is help!” Johnny answered with a grin. Soon the footsteps turned into soldiers marching on the rocky floor of the cave. Johnny saluted just as thirty eight British soldiers marched to Johnny and Walter’s Position. Walter being a General in the British Army imminently took charge and ordered the men to turn around and into the cavern. “Where home free Johnny old friend” Walter cheered. Just then a large Roar was heard coming from the Cavern. The Soldiers stood their ground. “You spoke to soon” Johnny announced. The ground shook more and more it got closer. Johnny commanded the soldiers to form two lines. It meant having the first line kneel down and second line standing up. Johnny and Walter joined them. “Steady men!” Walter ordered out with fear. Out of the darkness of the cave a giant Reptile much like a larger and more dangerous Raptor
stood up from the cave and roared towered the sky. Johnny screamed at the bottom of his lungs “FIRE! OPEN FIRE!” The soldiers aimed and fired at the beast. It roared and hissed has it has been shot multiple times. It then charged into the line of British soldiers and started grabbing man by man devouring each with every gulp and bite. Walter then yelled before running away “REATREAT!” Johnny then reloaded and aimed carefully while the massive predator ate his comrades. Johnny then whispered to himself “almost got it……, Stay still you over grown lizard” Johnny then shot the creature in the eye and then smiled. The lizard then roared and charged for Johnny. Johnny then held up his musket to keep the lizard’s mouth from his body. The lizard grabbed the musket with its jaws. Johnny then was lifted high in the air and ripped around while holding onto the musket. Johnny thinking quickly he pulled out his guns and shot the lizard again in the forehead with his heavy double barrel pistol. The lizard roared before dropping to the ground and letting go of Johnny and his musket. Johnny then landed in a pool of mud. Has Walter and the men saw what Johnny had done they were astonished to see an elderly man took down a monstrous and giant lizard. Johnny held his musket over his shoulder and put his foot on top of the beast’s neck. “By God you killed it! Good show Johnny!” Walter cheered. “Aye now let’s push on…, Wait! How many men did we lose?” Johnny asked with much concern. “Out of the thirty eight Sir…, eleven” Johnny then took off his hat and bowed his head towards the dead bodies of soldiers. As soon as Johnny had done so everyone followed. “Well let’s get a move on mates!” Johnny announced with respect and put his hat back on. Everyone followed and marched through the jungle with Johnny as their guide. Knowing there will be more lizards coming through the caves, they marched around the outskirts of the Valley until they reached the edge of the jungle. “Grappling hooks away!” Walter ordered. Everyone got their Grappling hooks and threw it at the rocky cliff. They tied the ropes to their wasted and climbed up the rocky surface. Two hours past when they finally reached the top of the cliff. Walter stood up and admired the view and smiled with the glance of the large valley covered with vast jungle at the bottom. Exhausted and wet Johnny and Walter decided to make up camp just beyond the cliff they just climbed for the night. As they set up their tents Johnny then remembered the base camp they sent the rest of the troops to protect. Before turning in for the night he ran towards his Commander and asked with concern “Commander Gennaro any news on Base Camp?” He answered back with question “Sir, we did not come from Base Camp, the HMS Adventure hit a sandbar and the crew was forced to abandon the Ship. We were sending more supplies for the Base Camp but those Lizards chased us and the crew of the HMS Adventure into the Caves. That is where we met you Sir.” Johnny looked surprised. “Hit a Reef? What! How are we going to get off this island?” Walter interrupted. Gennaro replied to both his Commanding Officers’ concern with good news. “Well we sent a small sail equipped Dingy with four sailors to go find help” Gennaro informed with a hopeful tone. They soon brought out a map and placed it on a large tree stump. Johnny pointing where the island is and measuring the length from the nearest friendly port replied “About a day’s sail with that small dingy from Isla de los Perdidos to Isla Matanceros. We should be saved in two to three days hopefully. Just then when plotting their course rain started to fall from the sky. “We have a long day ahead of us gents, I suggest we get some sleep” Johnny announced to the group before heading into his small tent.
==Chapter: 6 Escaping the Island==
In the sound of night Johnny woke up for a strange reason that he did not know why. He pulled out his pocket watch and it was four in the morning. “Well that’s strange” Johnny remarked to himself. He reached from his make shift hammock to a small foldable table with a glass of water on it. But suddenly the earth shook. The water rings expanded over and over again. Johnny got his blunderbuss from his side and slowly and quietly cocked it. Johnny got up and sneaked to the entrance of the tent. Then an image of a giant lizard’s head appeared through the tent’s fabric from the moonlight. Johnny moved outside and got right behind the creature. Has it sniffed a sleeping Walter, he then giggled and spoke in his sleep about his mother. Johnny rolled his eyes and went right under the beast. Johnny aimed for its chest and pulled the trigger. The Creature reacted with a loud roar which woke up the rest of the soldiers. Gennaro has just put on his wig and part of his Navel Uniform when he came to see what the noise was. Along with responding to the roar the marines woke from their needed sleep and grabbed their muskets and tried to shoot the creature down. The Lizard then roared a terrible scream that almost blew out everyone’s eardrums. Everyone thought it was injured so a spark of endurance came in and the Marines charged the beast with their bayonets. Not knowing what it just did Johnny then widen his eyes and spoke to Walter and the Marines near him “Run, it isn’t dying its calling for help!” the group ran into the camp and gathered their things and then another giant lizard roared and charged it’s way after the surviving marines chasing and grabbing them with their mighty jaws of death. “RUN! RETREAT” Water ordered as he and Johnny with a few other Marines ran into the tall and thick grass. Just then Commander Gennaro came covered with blood and with half of his arm missing. Walter then noticed a trail of blood coming from Gennaro and he looked at his face with anger. “You’ll doom us Commander, you Fool” Walter then shot the Commander and continued to chop and run through the tall grass with Johnny. Walter and Johnny became lost through the grass. “Walter, are you there?” Johnny asked with a loud yell. “Yes! Wait we got raptors in the grass” Walter yelled back in alarm. Johnny and the four other soldiers he had with him shot each fast lizard that came even near them. Johnny was nearly out of ammo and threw his expensive pistols on the ground and fired his last shots from his pistols. Meanwhile Walter was determined to get his prize. The men who were with him where one by one jumped and killed by the lizard predators. He ran into a small strip of Jungle and spotted the lead raptor of the group. “There you are” Walter whispered to himself. Walter then slowly cocked his musket and aimed at the lizard but before he could take the shot four others grabbed onto him and started ripping him limp from limp. Johnny heard Walter’s screams and tried to move to his location but was stopped by more raptors. The two marines he had side by side at him looked at Johnny. “It has been an honor to serve you gentlemen” Johnny spoke boldly before pulling out his Dao sword and his blunderbuss with his last shot in it. “For the King” a marine yelled before Johnny and the Marines charged at the raptors. The first marine shot a raptor and stabbed it with his bayonet before attacking another. The other marine charged and stabbed a lizard before being mauled by two other lizards. Johnny had shot the marine and the group of lizards that where attacking him. Johnny threw the blunderbuss at the raptor and started chopping his way through every scaled cold blooded reptile in his path. The other marine had barely survived the previous attacks and reloaded his musket quickly but then was jumped on by a Raptor who stuck its mighty claw into his neck before eating his legs. Johnny was then clawed and nearly bitten but shoved his sword into the raptors mouth and pushed it away from his head. The marine still alive knew he was done for. He grabbed his musket and shot the raptor in the head. Johnny then shoved his sword into the creature and ripped his sword out. Johnny then grinned at the Marine and saluted. The marine replied with a simple smile. Johnny screamed and charged at the remaining raptors chopping one by one. Johnny then maneuvered his way past the grass and near a small cliff. Johnny then lost his balance battling the dangerous lizards and tumbled down a sand hill and landed in the sand face first. His sword flew in the air and landed not far from where he landed. He saw an even larger pack of raptors jumping from down the sand hill. Johnny pulled the sword from the sand and pulled out his heavy repeater pistol with its last two shots in it. “Come on you filthy animals, I’ll take you one by one brings it on! You killed my comrades my friend! Why not me” Johnny yelled at the lizards as they hissed back. Just then right behind him a large group of Soldiers came out of seven longboats and then a large storm of musket fire then covered the sides of Johnny and killed the last of the Raptors. Just then the men stood at attention and Johnny recognized their uniforms when a tall skinny man came out of the boat and approached Johnny wearing completely red. “Sir Goldtimbers, Thank God you’re safe. We’ve received your distress from a few gents on a small sailboat.” The man in red spoke to Johnny. “Indeed, now, I want a recover team here now Mr. Ludlow.” Johnny ordered and as quickly as he did the Employees of the InGei moved into the jungles to recover the bodies. At the same time Ludlow also mentioned “Eh, and a clean pair of cloths for our CEO.” When he looked at Johnny’s blood stained cloths. Johnny then tried to move his feet but he collapsed. Two Black uniformed Guards grabbed onto Johnny and took him aboard the S.S. Endurance for medical care. In the following hours the InGei Soldiers returned with the dead bodies of most of the marines and Walter. Johnny had just gotten patched up by the ship’s doctor and he imminently got his cane and moved towards the upper decks. He leaned over to Walter’s side and spotted a paper in his hand. “What is this” he thought to himself. He opened his hand and opened a crumbled piece of paper. Walter wrote to Johnny “Johnny my dearest friend, I was wrong about this Island. I’ll give your remarks to your Wife Sarah. Do me a favor if you’re rescued from this godforsaken rock. Make sure this Island stays lost. Fare winds Johnny”. Johnny smiled and looked towards the HMS Adventure still on its side from the reef. Johnny looked out into the ocean and smiled at the island as it got smaller and smaller with the InGei Fleet sailed father and father away. Ludlow came up to Johnny’s side and handed him a new cane. “What do you think that this Island is? Dangerous or Beautiful” He asked when he gazed into the Island. “Isn’t the danger on that Island a beautiful specimen of God’s creatures?” Johnny replied with a grin. Johnny then gazed at his new cane crafted from bone and the handle a smoothed rock of Amber. “Where did you find this?” A Soldier four feet behind him replied “we found it in the base camp, along with these letters and a Claw” Johnny smiled and continued to gaze at the Island. “It is what Walter would have wanted” Johnny spoke in the best interest of the World. Johnny then grabbed the Raptor Claw and observed it closely before dropping it overboard and letting it sink into the ocean.
