Chapter 16

'Crap' my eyes shook and my heart dropped as I finally realized where the sound had come from.

Looking down, I looked at the foot I had landed on just to see a twig that had broken into two.

While this might not have meant much back on earth, everything on this planet was much stronger, larger, and more powerful than their earth counterparts. While before, a bat might have been able to locate everything within 30-60 meters with their echolocation, a bat in this world would probably be able to double if not triple that number.

*SCREECH*

*SQUEAK*

*ROAR*

Every hair on my body stood up at the same time as I threw all caution out of the window and began running even quicker.

'I don't want to die' My eyes began to soak up tears once again as I ran at my fastest, jumping over the enormous tree roots and avoiding all the mud in the way that could have probably swallowed me whole and fossilized me for the future archeologists to find me.

'Wait… That system thing said that I was traveling through time… It said Earth was only around 4.2 billion years old… Earth is 4.5 billion years old… Did I just get sent back to the carboniferous? Wait no, it should be the Triassic. Right? GODDAMNIT! I should have revised!' I felt like all the knowledge I had gained from my geology and geography classes were failing me.

*ROAR*

*SCREECH*

*ROAR*

Countless and continuous roars rang out through the forest yet again, causing shudders to go down my very being. Yet, even after feeling so much pressure...Even after fearing for my life at every step, I swallowed down my fear and ran. Ran like hell itself was right behind me, waiting to devour me into its deepest depths and burn me for my every sin.
