Prologue:

    Sotara was wandering in the forest of Triassic winter. It was a lovely morning in the Valley of the Moon. He let out a long sigh of contentment. "Valley of the Moon, the only green place in Triassic," he said to his pleased mind and a beautiful view of his green homeland.

    Suddenly, his happiness was blown up by a sound of fighting nearby. Sotara let out a sigh and quickly ran to the waterfall, where the fight was....

Chapter 7 : Reunion

    Sotara leapt out of the bush, arrived the waterfall. And the thing he saw shocked him. It is a Herrerasaurus liked creature, but thrice the size, and it was killing a familiar Herrerasaurus....

    "Uncle Boha!" Sotara shouted right after he recognized that Herrerasaurus. He quickly ran to the gigantic creature. The giant raised his head up and roared out loudly as he saw Sotara. "Get lost, young one," he said after that. Sotara said nothing and leapt at the giant, but before he could reach the giant's body, he was hit by the giant's tail.

    "You are the brave one. But I see that you are too young to fight me. So don't bother me if you still want to keep your life," the giant said and let out an evil chuckle, and then he began to walk away.

    Sotara snarled and about to attack the giant again, but there was a soft, weak voice stopped him.

    "Uncle Boha!" Sotara shouted and ran to the injured Herrerasaurus. "Is that... really... you, Sotara?" the injured said. Tears slid down from Sotara's eyes, "Don't talk anything, Uncle Boha. I'll take you to my cave," he said and carefully carried his uncle on his back, and headed back to the cave....

    Balto was walking in the forest, still tried to find his missing daughter. Both weather and landscape of that place told him that he wasn't anywhere near Nome or even Alaska. But he could feel a weak scent of his daughter around, so he followed the scent to find if it is really her.

    Later, Balto had arrived the plain, the scent he followed was stornger, and this time, he heard a sound of feminine giggle, it is very similar to Aleu's voice. Balto turned his head to where the voice came, and finally, he saw his daughter was running happily with....

    "What's that thing!" Balto asked himself in shock as he saw Aleu was playing with something he had never seen before, it's a human-sized lizard-like creature. With worry, Balto called Aleu's name out loudly. At the moment, neither Aleu nor the creature seemed to notice him. Suddenly a loud roar filled the forest. Balto turned his head to, where he thought was, the source of the roar, and he saw something that made him even more shocked. The thing he saw looked just like the first strange creature, but much larger, and it was running toward him. Once Balto could regain his consciousness, he quickly turned to Aleu's direction and ran. But as he turned, Aleu and her seem-to-be friend he saw had disappeared. He was running from the giant alone, but it seems to have no use, the giant was much faster than him. And suddenly, as the giant reached Balto, he closed his eyes and....

    "Balto!" a voice called him loudly. Balto opened his eyes and saw a face of a female part-wolf looking at him closely.

    "Glace. It's you," Balto said softly. "Have a nightmare?" Glace asked, Balto just nodded.

    "Wait a second," Glace said and walked to the front of the boat. "He's up now, Jenna," she said to Jenna, who was waiting for Balto to wake up there.

    "You have just told me you have a nightmare, Balto?" Glace asked again as she and Jenna came back to Balto. "Yes. A second time," said Balto.

    "A second time...?" Glace asked, and then stopped for a while, thinking something. "So, what did you see in your dream?" she continued. And Balto began to tell Jenna and Glace about his dream....

    "It's just like what I've thought. This may not be a normal dream. It may going to tell you something, Balto," Glace said after Balto finished. "Do you know what's that dream mean?" Balto asked.

    "I... I'm sorry. I can't tell you now. Even though I have just said that this may not be a normal dream. But, who knows, it can be just a dream," said Glace.

    "So, what should we do now?" Jenna asked again with an anxious expression.

    "Well, uh... let's do everything just like what we do everyday. And we'll see if Balto or anyone has a dream like this again and again, I think we should find someone who can tell us what the dream said," Glace adviced.

    "Well, thanks, Glace," said Balto. Glace smile and said "That's not a problem, Balto. Now...." she stopped and stretched herself, "I'll go see Topaz. He knows about dreams. So, see you later," she continued jumped down from the boat.

    "She's a good girl," Balto said to Jenna. "Yes. I think so," Jenna said with a smile, and then turned into an anxious face.

    "What's wrong?" asked Balto. "Balto. We tried to find Aleu everywhere we think she could be now. But we...," Jenna said. "I know, Jenna. We tried our best. But for now, we can only wait for the time," Balto interrupted. "Oh, Balto...," Jenna put her face on Balto's chest, "I'm so worry about her," she said. Balto nuzzled her, "Me too, Jenna. Me too...."

    "Sotara? Who's he?" Aleu asked as Sotara put Boha down on the cave ground. Sotara let out a sigh and about to say,

    "Sotara...," Boha cut off, "Why is.... Why is there a mammal... in your cave?" he asked. "Well, uh... she's lost. So, I... I invited her to stay with me," Sotara said.

    Boha smiled and said, "You're my good child..., Sotara." And then he turned his head to Aleu, "Hello, kid.... Come here," he called Aleu, but she hesitated, she turned her head and stared at Sotara. Sotara just gave a little smile. "Come on, kid.... I won't hurt you," Boha continued softly, so Aleu walked to him and sat down. "What's your name?" asked Boha. "I'm Aleu," Aleu answered. "Aleu...? Lovely name..., isn't it? ...Mine is Boha," Boha said and gave Aleu a smile, Aleu did the same.

    "Aleu," Sotara called after a moment, "Where's Nebbia?" asked he. "Nebbia? Uh.... She had just came back from the plain. Now she's sleeping in the cave," Aleu said.

    "Good. Aleu, I want a time to stay with my uncle alone. You go into the cave first. I'll see you inside," Sotara said. "Your uncle?" Aleu asked, "But you told me that...,"

    "We'll talk about this later. Now just do as I said, okay?" Sotara said calmly. "Okay...," Aleu answered, and walked deep into the cave, but with signs of confusion written on her face....

    "Sotara.... I'm so proud of you... for destroying Fogo...," Boha said. "I wouldn't have these days without you, Uncle Boha. I have to thank you," Sotara said with a little smile....

    "Uncle Boha. I have a question," Sotara said after a while. "So ask," said Boha.

    "Who's that creature who was killing you this morning? You two have some problems before?" asked Sotara.

    Boha sighed out, "His name is Aliwal..., the Aliwalia. We don't have... any problem before.... In fact..., we didn't even know. But... he knows that... Valley of the Moon... is the only place... that's evergreen.... So, like Fogo years ago.... Aliwal wants this valley to be his...," he stopped because the pain that came over his body. "Uncle Boha, I'm sorry.... Please have a rest," Sotara suddenly said.

    "Sotara.... If one day.... If one day I left you...," Boha started. "Uncle Boha. Don't say something like that," Sotara cut him off.

    "No, Sotara.... One day..., I surely... have to leave you.... You have to.... You have to understand this," Boha continued.

    Once again. Tears welled up in Sotara's eyes. "If one day... I died.... Can you promise me that... that you will not... go and try to... fight... Aliwal...?" Boha gave Sotara a question.

    "Uncle Boha. I can't let...,"

    "Sotara.... I don't want you... in this condition... like your old uncle in... front of... you," Boha interrupted Sotara from what he was going to say. Sotara said nothing.

    "Sotara..., please, don't hes... hesitate. This can... be the... last thing I ask you... to... do...," Boha continued. Sotara kept himself in the silence for another moment, thinking of how to answer his uncle. Then he let out a sigh, "Yes, uncle Boha. I promise you," he said.

    Boha smiled a little, "My good child...," said he....

    Glace was in front of the wolf cave. "Topaz! Topaz! Are you there!?" she shouted.

    Topaz walked out of the cave, but in sleepy way, "I'm too young to be deaf, Glace," he said. "Oh, sorry, Topaz," Glace said.

    "Come in, Glace," Topaz invited, still rubbing his ear. With that, Glace walked into the
