PFG round 1 fight 7: Dubreuillosaurus vs Nothronychus

Been waiting to post this one for a while...warning! Lots of blood and gore in this one. If this unsettles you, well, you're already reading it, so enjoy!

Nothronychus

Length: 4.5 m

Weight 1 ton

Height: 3.6 m

Era: Early Cretaceous

Nothronychus live in small family groups on Isla Nublar. Their family bonds are strong, and even the males rarely leave when they reach maturity. Females lead these groups, and are typically larger then males. Nothronychus is covered in a downy covering of feathers that range from sandy brown in color to pure white with black motteling. Older females develop a bright blue beak, the reason for this is unknown. They graze in the treetops during the daytime, but occasionally eat smaller animals and insects.

Dubreuillosaurus

Length: 8.5 m

Weight: 1 ton

Height: 3 m

Era: Mid Jurassic

Dubreiullosaurus is an active nocturnal hunter. They rarely are ever out in the day time, mainly because of their sensitive skin. They hunt in packs of up to seven, rare amongst theropods. Like other megalosaurs, it hunts and kills with a startling ferocity. It's bite force is rather weak however, and they rely on huge numbers along with their lethal long arm and foot talons to kill. Dubreuillosaurus has a yellow body that tapers into a blue head.

FIGHT!

The sun is starting to go down on isla nublar, and a subadult Nothronychus walks away from its family to graze on some bushes. Almost the size of an emu, he can look out for himself, but is unwilling to. He mainly sticks around to help watch over the batch of hatchlings running his mother recently hatched. He ate a small part of the bush, but disliking it, went to the nearby stretch of river to eat some aquatic plants.

As he reached the rivers edge, he noticed the familiar smell of a predator but couldn't exactly determine what it was. His large eyes surveyed the dense forest of gingo and sequoia trees in front of him. Suddenly they were upon him. One grabbed him by the throat, silencing the scream that was intended to alert the others. At least 3 other Unrecognizable animals were attacking him with their claws. A second set of vice- like jaws snapped his lower leg with a loud crack. The Sub-adult therizinosaur slipped into unconsciousness and died. 

The Snarling Dubreuillosaurus settled down to eat. The Alpha male growled at the others, letting them know he gets the choice cuts. He began to gourge himself while the others waited excitedly for their turn. One of the young Megalosaurs squawked out in excitement, and the others fell silent. The nearby Nothronychus family heard this and immidiately stood at attention. The female put herself between the forest and her youngsters, as did her mate. They listened intently for a few minutes, but feeling whatever made the sound moved on, settled back into grazing.

The Megalosaurs had quickly finished off their meal. Most of the 6 members were still hungry, and decided they loved the taste of therizinosaur. They followed the scent of the female, and observed the family from the cover of the Sequoias. The youngsters excitedly growled, and once again gave away their location. The Mating pair of Nothronychus once again stood and faced the trees, and the alpha male Dubreiullosaurus emerged with his blood covered jaws. He let out an ear splitting roar, which frightened the remaining sub-adult and babies. The Alpha megalosaur walked towards the therizinosaur, and the other Dubreuillosaurs fanned out. The Alpha distracted the parents while the members of his pack attacked the babies.

Sensing something wrong, the male therizinosaur spun towards his young...only to see one torn apart in front of him. Enraged, he charged the now fleeing Megalosaur. They attacked from the left. There was no sound. One went for his throat, the other going for his arms. The male therizinosaur was fast, and stabbed an attacking megalosaur through the throat. it couched out blood, and he threw it to the ground. Sensing they no longer had the advantage, the other 2 attacking megalosaurs slunk back. The female had thwarted the attack of the alpha megalosaur, and it too slunk back into the trees. Feeling they had sucessfully defended themselves, they turned toward their remaining young. 

The onslaught began again. The alpha megalosaur launched itself at the male Nothronychus, and landed a blow on his neck. The claws of the Dubreiullosaurus cut the jugular vein, and the therizinosaur began to bleed to death. He slumped to the ground, and ceased to move. Furious, the Female charged the Megalosaur. She slashed him across the face, leaving long deep gashes. Blood ran down his face, and just as he decided to flee, a baby therizinosaur ran directly towards him. He snatched it in his jaws and ran towards the forest. A younger Dureuillosaurus was sticking around, making high pitched barking sounds. The female decided to kill it. She ran forward and hip checked it, knocking it to the ground. It tried to get up, but felt the thirteen inch claws of the therizinosaur enter his neck, killing him instantly. She felt this wasn't enough, and torn the young theropod to shreds.

The Megalosaurs were no longer in sight, and the female therizinosaur surveyed her home. Her once serene nesting sight was now a war zone, littered with the corpeses of predator and prey alike. She walked over to her mate, and licked his head. She got no response, and recognized he had died. She lifted her head into the cold night sky and let out a loud mournful wail. Her remaining three hatchlings gathered around her, trying to reassure her. They settled down for a long, hard night.

Winner...Nothronychus!

Even though she had lost a few members of her family, she remained at the end, while no megalosaurs stood to take her on, giving her the win
