Chapter 1

Five days, that was the amount of time it had been since we had crash landed on this island. It was suppossed to be just a normal ordinary trip. My graduating senior class instead of doing a senior sailabration like past years, managed to rack up enough donations to book everyone a four day trip to Tokyo. Perhaps it was because we were all greedy to see the world, but we ended up picking a flight which gave us a lay over in Guam for several hours before finally making its way to Japan. There we all found out that half our graduating class would be sharing their flight with Japanese high school students that were the same age as us.

After taking off we had only been flying for about an hour when we got trapped in a massive storm that appeared out of nowhere. Maybe it was because of the pilot and co-pilots skill but we crash landed without anyone dying. Of course it wouldn't be smooth sailing after that though.

"What do you mean the radio is dead?!"

"Explain it to us properly!"

"That's right!"

I listened to the shouting outside coming from the mob of angry students. When we first crash landed we had been told that the radio could be fixed within the week and that we all would be rescued. Of course that was until our second night here they came. A herd of prehistoric mammals known as Hyaenodon Gigas, had come and ambushed us as we had made fires to make dinner for the night. I had warned everyone repeatedly that it was a terrible idea to do that in the first place, but no one seemed to care or listen to me. After that incident I was confronted our schools adonis, Jack Michaelson.

'Hey Carl why the hell didn't you warn us about something like this?'

'No I've definitely told you guys that making those fires were a terrible idea.'

'If that was the case why didn't you simply explain it to us clean and simple?'

Of course I snapped when he said those words. I told him to go fuck himself and began my final prepping for leaving the plane and finding somewhere else to stay. Seeing as it didn't make much sense to stay here anymore. I had jumped into and out of the cargo area finding the clothes that I needed from my suitcase down below and packed them in my tactical-style hiking backpack which I brought as my carry-on.

"Um... Carl-san, right?" I stopped as I heard a girls voice call out to me. She had spoken with an English accent, with a fit figure, natural red hair coming from the roots of her dark brown hair to boot. I had seen her talking with the more popular guys in my high school class but I had never interacted with her before.

"Yeah, you found him, what can I do for you?" I replied while fixing the straps on the back of my backpack.

"My name is Claire Hoshino. I was wondering if we could come with you?" I looked over at her as my hands stopped moving.

This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.

"We?" I grabbed some non-alcoholic drinks and we sat down in the resting cabins used by the crew on long flights.

"Yeah, my best friend Rikka and I, I don't want to let her stay in the class with the girls anymore. The bullying has increased dramatically since we've been stranded here. It also seems like the American girls are joining in too." I rubbed my temples slightly as I processed everything. She told me everything about what happened to Rikka in the past year. About her cousin's job, about her appearing in a video and that video going viral because of her cousin's popularity. It was a story that seemed to come out of a TV Soap Opera or maybe drama was a better context for it.

"Let me get everything straight. Your friend, Rikka, went and guest starred in a Japanese AV. On top of having a bombshell body the guys in your school pursued her even harder thinking that she was easy. Because of their actions, all the girls become jealous and turned against her. And now that rumor has made it through to our side all of my classmates are trying to pursue her causing the girls in my year to turn against her, too." I felt like I was coming down with a migraine after I repeated all the major events that had happened to Rikka.

"Yeah, now that I hear you say it, it's pretty hard to believe. But it's the truth, I even have photos of when she went to the shoot if you want to see!"

"Please don't." I replied while sticking my hand out to stop her.

"Do you think you can allow us to come with you then?"

"After hearing all that I don't see why not, but I have to ask, you both are fairly popular so why choose to leave with me? I mean you both could find a better traveling companion than me, right?" I knew my place in the food chain. Even my ex-girlfriends had rated me as a five at most from a scale of one to ten. The only redeeming feature of mine was literally the body I had built up due to playing water polo for over half of my life.

"If your talking about looks, both Rikka and I think your pretty good looking, but our real reasoning lies with what you said about what happened on our second night here the other day." Claire explained to me while tying her hair into a ponytail.

"You mean about the Hyaenodon Gigas?"

"Yeah, that overgrown Hyaena. It seemed like if anyone knew what was going on it was you." Claire responded while nodding her head.

"Well it's my dream to become a Paleontologist. Call it luck that we landed on an unmarked island that is most likely filled with other prehistoric life." I shrugged while turning the other way.

"Except you knew that before the attack." As if seeing through me, Claire said the words I had kept hidden from everyone else. I sighed as I began to explain my side of the story.

**Author Note (Feel free to skip if you don't care): Hey everyone, this is my first chapter of a story I had been creating for awhile. It's been awhile since I last wrote a story for people to read but after having read lots different Webnovels and Light Novels I figured I would give it a shot again. For those you enjoy reading manga, let me save you the trouble this story is partially inspired by Cage of Eden (Eden no Ori). I have also taken elements which will appear in latter chapters from Jurassic Park while adding my own flare to them. In the future I might make a Prologue chapter for this and re-edit this chapter but as it stands this chapter is the start of the story. As a heads up Chapter 1 will have a tiny cliff hanger for Chapter 2 and Chapter 3. This is the first time I'm posting a story here on this community I look forward to hearing the feedback about this. For those that have read Cage of Eden, don't give me too much crap about the similarities of the initial setting here, I felt this was easiest to get everything going. I plan for this to be quite a bit darker in latter chapters. Additionally for any description of the creatures in the series please search them on Dinopedia.
