The new dinosaur glowered at King King. Then it began to wade out of the
water. It was enormous. King King backed away.
“Wh– what is it?” he quavered.
“That’s a spinosaurus,” Lila said. “See the row of spines along its back? They
make a sort of sail. Quite scary, isn’t it?”
King King gulped. “I’m not scared! Um– what does it eat?”
“Meat, fish, dinosaurs; anything that moves,” said Lila. “That isn’t the King of
the Killers, though.”
“Oh, good!”
“No, she’s the Queen. That’s Queen Spinechilla: and this is her lake. She really
doesn’t care for strange young dinosaurs thumping round it.”
“Oh,” said King King faintly. He stood and stared, not knowing what to do.
The two huge predators were heading straight towards him. They both looked
bigger and faster than he was – and much, much meaner.
And now it was too late for him to run.
