A/N: For the P100 challenge 254: Pteranodon. Part of my Dreams Of Yesterday drabble series and follows Decisions. It isn't my fault, how could I resist doing this with this prompt? ;)

A/N2: Thanks go to Fred for the beta. Cheers, m'dear.


James swore as he spotted the flying creature Abby's cry had warned him about. Just what he needed when he was clinging to a cliff.

It plunged towards him, talons stretched wide. Digging into his flesh, tearing as it attempted to send him plummeting to the ground.

He heard Abby's yell before several rocks rained down, sending the creature screeching away.

James' shoulder throbbed with every breath he took. His arm now dangling uselessly by his side, he saw no choice now except to risk the jungle. Could today get any worse? A roar from below merely confirmed it could.

I hope the wolf is OK! Sorry, Lester, I want you to be OK too...

Poor man - Murphy's Law is a pain!

Terrific tension. Poor James in peril.

Fingers crossed for James and the wolf.

Another accomplished drabble in this series.

Oh God!!! Poor Lester!!! :(
But you're right, this time the prompt is the guilty one! :)
Nice drabble!

Well, it has made up his mind for him I suppose!

Meep! Although it is all very exciting... *g*

[fififolle]

OMG!!! Save him! Arrggh, there's no one to help! *flail*
This is mean. And so exciting. I mean, you wouldn't actually, um, kill him. Right??

Meep!!!! Poor Lester and wolfie (and Abby)! I did wonder what you were going to do with this prompt for your series...

I think I've said poor James a lot in response to your drabbles but it most definitely applies here.

Ooh, very good, it's getting quite dramatic now! Poor James! Let's hope for his sake next week's prompt isn't 'T-Rex' or something similar! *g*

[cordeliadelayne]

Aggh!
