doom.
Jonathan, to get a better direct-on control of his special
powers, told Lena to slide their Gigantoraptor slightly out of line
from the rest of the crew. Instead of freezing the bisons’ forward
movements, Jonathan decided to have the herd run right over

the spooked warriors, Tital tied each man securely. Jonathan and
Lena, once the bison were safe, concentrated on the eight men
