The Amazing Dinosaur Adventure 9 Journey to Big Water

## Plot

One summer day, in a big valley, there lived 6 Dinosaurs named "Luke, Sunflower, Tulip, Alex, Daisy, and Snowflake". After a very big rain, the valley was partly flooded and covered up in debris. As the rain stopped, Luke tried to play with his friends, but they were all busy: Snowflake and her parents were pushing a very huge log from their nesting area, Daisy and her family were moving their nest, and Alex got a cold. Luke wished for a brother, but he went exploring alone and he noticed a place flooded by the rain. All the Dinosaurs then told the 6 children to stay away, knowing that very dangerous creatures may have been washed down into the flooded valley. However, Luke soon went back to the flooded area and he had met "Joy", a young female *Ophthalmosaurus*, who was caught in the flooded area.

Luke then befriended Joy and he then had related her as his mud-buddy. Luke’s friends had appeared and befriended Joy also. Joy then explained to the 6 children that she was from the ocean and she swam down into the valley during the rainstorm. Joy also had confirmed that she was alone, but soon, a *Pliosaurus* attacked the 7 children. Luke requested help from all the Dinosaurs to help Joy get home to the ocean, but all the Dinosaurs had refused to, not wanting to risk leaving the valley to aid an outsider creature. As the 6 children went straight back to the flooded area, a very huge earthquake then started and it had separated the 6 children from their families, but the earthquake had also trapped the *Pliosaurus* inside a big underwater cavern. Unable to go home to the valley, the 6 children had planned to take Joy home to the ocean by themselves.

The 7 children followed a very huge river that they thought led straight to the ocean. A very nice mother *Diplodocus* had allowed the 6 children to spend the night at her nest, and the 6 children were so happy to see the hatching of her children. The next day, the 6 children had said goodbye to the *Diplodocus* mother, and they continued their journey to the ocean. Soon, the 6 children finally realized that they were getting really close to the ocean, as they had tasted salt in the water. As a rainy night went on, the *Pliosaurus*, who broke out of the underwater cavern, pursued the 6 children. Joy had distracted the *Pliosaurus* and she lured him further down the river. The 6 children had got the feeling that Joy might have been eaten by the *Pliosaurus*. The next day, the 6 children figured that Joy was still alive and Joy informed the 6 children that the *Pliosaurus* had ended up smelling the ocean, and he ended up abandoning the chase, choosing to return to the ocean.

The 7 children then arrived at the ocean, and Joy was happy to be home, but she was really upset because she had discovered that the 6 children must go back home as well. Joy had wished to stay with the 6 children, but the 6 children could not and Luke then reminded Joy that they always would be mud-buddies forever. Then, Joy had reunited with her family, and then she asked them for directions to the volcanoes as the 6 children knew how to find the valley from that location. Before departing, Joy offered to show Luke her very amazing home. Luke accepted Joy’s offer, and he was surprised by the big coral. The 6 children said goodbye to Joy, and they went home to the valley, where they had reunited with all the Dinosaurs, even their families. After that, the 6 children went back to their shelter, and they all lived happily ever after.
