The time warp soon drops them off in North Africa, in the same time.
And they landed in forest.
"Whoa." Spike looked around.
"This just gets weirder and weirder." Applejack said.
"Yeah, what's that?" Pinkie points out away.
They looked to where Pinkie was pointing. And nearby was a mid sized Dinosaur with a sail on it's back.
The swamps are refuges for many large Dinosaurs.
Like the duckbill Ouranosaurus.
The Ouranosaurus soon spots them, but finds they 7 Ponies and Dragon very strange and curious looking. And then the Ouranosaurus heads off and seems to be looking for other Ouranosaurs.
And the Mane 7 followed it. And as they walked, they unknowingly walked by a large footprint.
They are also the hunting grounds of a killer.
The Ouranosaurus calls out, and somewhere ahead was a group of other Ouranosaurus.
At 20 feet and 3 tons, Ouranosaurs are big.
And close by, only seen within the mist layer. Was a large predatory Dinosaur, and it too has a sail.
They continued to walk as the Theropod was behind them, and then the Ouranosaurus looks back and saw the Theropod.
And then the Ouranosaurus takes off running, and then Twilight and the others looked back and saw it and then started running.
And they didn't stop until they got to the Ouranosaurus herd and they looked back. And there was no sigh of the Theropod.
But then, it was soon spotted again. And reveals itself.
Spinosaurus.
At 57 feet, the biggest killer ever to walk the Earth.
And an 11 ton colossus.
They watched as the Spinosaurus walks by, the Mane 7 stared and awe and terrified of the giant. And the Spinosaurus turns to them, but then after a moment it soon walks away seemingly not interested for a kill.
However, for the time being, these Ouranosaurs are off this killer's menu.
And they watched as the biggest land predator ever walk away.
A short time later, the mane 7 soon arrived at a river.
And then on the other bank, the Spinosaurus from earlier appeared walking alongside of the river. And a Crocodiles quickly heads into the water.
Spinosaurus is a predator, but one that hunts in water.
And under the surface of the water, were shapes of large Fish swimming underneath.
It was a shoal of Onchopristis, a 20 foot long Sawfish like the ones today.
And soon, the Spinosaurus walks into the water and was up to it's knees in water. And the Spinosaurus watches and waits for the right moment.
And then the Spinosaurus lunges and snatches one of the Onchopristis with it's 6 foot Crocodile like jaws. And soon brought the Fish onto the bank, and then shakes it and begins to feed.
The conical teeth they have is for gripping instead of tearing.
Not far away, as the Spinosaurus feeds. An Abelisaurid watches as the Spinosaur feeds, and soon the Spinosaurus enters back into the river.
With plenty of prey, Spinosaurus can afford to be wasteful.
Which other Dinosaurs can take advantage of.
And the Abelisaurid approaches the Onchopristis carcass.
Rugops, a 26 foot long carnivore. Anywhere it might dominant, but here it is dwarfed by Spinosaurus.
The Rugops begins to feed.
As with the Spinosaurus, it dips it's snout underwater since it's nostrils were up higher.
And the snout of Spinosaurus has similar holes just like those of Crocodiles. And it can even strike without even seeing it's prey.
And then the Spinosaurus catches another Onchopristis, and soon brought it back on the bank to feed.
The Rugops which was still feeding, noticed the Spinosaurus nearby. And so he quickly snatches a piece of meat, and quickly heads off before the Spinosaurus noticed him.
The law and skull of Rugops is weak, and is no killer.
It, is a natural born scavenger.
After some hunting, the Mane 7 watched the Spinosaurus as it swims across the river.
A few weeks later, a drought has started.
And the landscape has changed around the river.
The Mane 7 arrived to one of the remaining pools of water in the riverbed. And soon they saw the Spinosaurus, and then when a Crocodile appeared and hissed. The Spinosaurus looked nervous.
"How is something that big easily scared of a Crocodile?" Rainbow frowned.
Twilight looked around, and then noticed something. "Uh, it's not the Crocodile."
Nearby, was the head of much larger Crocodile which looked like a 40 foot long Gharial.
Sarcosuchus, a giant 40 foot long Crocodile.
As the Sarcosuchus got closer, the Spinosaurus quickly walked up the ridge.
And so, the Spinosaurus moves away from the rivers. And heads inland to find food.
The Mane 7 followed the giant a safe distance, in times like this, Spinosaurus would hunt other animals.
And the Spinosaurus walks by a few Pterosaurus feeding off small bits of meat on an old skeleton.
Then suddenly the Spinosaurus charged at them, and the Pterosaurs take off flying. But one of them wasn't so lucky, the Spinosaurus managed to snatch one as it was taking off. And he soon kills it, and then begins to feed.
Sometime later, they watched as the Spinosaurus watches a herd of Ouranosaurus.
And soon, the Ouranosaurus were aware of the giant.
And the Spinosaurus walks away.
Hunting on land, Spinosaurus is forced to face any competition with other predators.
Half an hour later, they followed the Spinosaurus into the forest.
And soon, they came across a large Theropod feeding of an Ouranosaurus carcass.
It was Carchardontosaurus.
Soon, hunger drove the Spinosaurus closer as the Carchardontosaurus soon spotted him.
The Carchardontosaurus begins to drag it's meal away. But then the Spinosaurus snatched the carcass, and they were in a tug of war match.
Today, Komodo Dragons are sometimes killed by one another over fights of carcasses.
Soon, the Spinosaurus jerks the carcass from the Carchardontosaurus as he roars aggressively.
Over 10 feet longer, Spinosaurus and bigger and more powerful.
And then the Spinosaurus swatted his claws at the Carchardontosaur's face. And then the Carchardontosaurus bites down of the sail of the Spinosaurus.
But Carchardontosaurus, has the more lethal bite.
Soon the Spinosaurus broke free and claws the back of the Carchardontosaurus. And then the Spinosaurus swatted his hand claws at the Carchardontosaur's face.
And the Spinosaurus roars.
And soon, the Carchardontosaurus started to back down.
And the Spinosaurus starts to feed.
This time, the Spinosaurus triumph.
A few days later, the Spinosaurus looks extremely weak.
And the injury on his sail is proven deadly.
The sail is made from the skeleton on the back spines.
And soon, the Spinosaurus lies down.
And sometime later, the Spinosaurus lies dead.
2 days pass, and Twilight and the others continued to explore this forgotten world.
And as they were by a river to drink.
A herd of Sauropods appeared.
They're Paralititan.
A 45 ton, 80 foot long giant.
In Africa, this is the biggest Dinosaur ever to lived on the continent.
And soon, the Paralititans went up to the river's edge. And begin to drink.
Like Argentinosaurus, Paralititan belongs to the family of Sauropods called Titanosaurs. They're very common in Cretaceous times.
But rivers, are dangerous places.
No matter how big you are.
Then suddenly a Crocodile lunges at one of the adult Paralititans. But manages to avoid getting bitten.
And soon other Crocodiles appeared, and the Paralititans begin to leave the water.
But then one of the herd's juveniles has gotten stuck in some mud. And is struggling to get free.
Soon, the Crocodiles begin to gather near the young Paralititan.
But then, the danger has increase as the King of Crocodiles appeared.
Sarcosuchus.
At the sight of the Sarcosuchus, the smaller Crocodiles begin to leave as the Sarcosuchus approaches the juvenile.
And the Sacrosuchus lies down and waits for the right moment.
And then the Sarcosuchus lunges and bites down on the Paralititan's right back foot. And starts to pull on it, and the young Paralititan roars out in distress.
But thing just got worse.
A Carchardontosaurus just arrived, and is interested in the juvenile.
And then the Carchardontosaurus bites the youngster on the neck. And soon the is in a tug of war with the Crocodile.
The 2 predators struggle to hold on, but if continues. The Paralititan is more likely to have it's neck or leg ripped off.
But soon, the Sarcosuchus lost it's grip and the Carchardontosaurus begins to pull the youngster from the mud.
And soon, the Paralititan drops to it's side, but the Carchardontosaurus pins it under it's foot.
But just before it was about to make the lethal blow, the Carchardontosaurus suddenly found itself being approached by 45 ton adult Paralititans.
Distracted by the adults, the young Paralititan begins to make a break for it.
And rushes away to the herd as the Carchardontosaurus leaves.
Injured, but alive.
The Paralititan youngster is lucky to escape with it's life. Though having it's right hind leg almost pulled from it's socket. And a near twisted ankle, it should make the road to recovery just fine.
"Oh, I'm so glad he's okay." Fluttershy relieved for the youngster.
"Think he'll be okay." Rainbow said.
"I hope so." Twilight said.
"He sure had a lucky escape." Spike said.
"Sure did." Starlight said.
And then, the Time Warp opens up. And then sucks the group in, taking them to their next destination.
Next Time:
They move forward 15 million years, to witness the survival...
Of one of the deadliest Dinosaurs.
