Chapter 8 – Pleistocene & Home

  Sheena found herself in the past, in the Pleistocene which sted up to 12,800 years ago!

  It was also called the epoch of the great Ice Age

  The whole world was frozen in ice and Sheena was only dressed in skins!

  She used her senses and hunted a woolly mammoth

  She hid in a cave and shared the meat with Triton, Icarus and Sereya who came with her. In their shrunken form, the meat of a mammoth sted for a week, and it provided clothes for Sheena, who had abandoned her leopardskin loincloth

  She wondered why the portal connected her to the Pleistocene when most of the cryptids came from the cretaceous period!

  Perhaps she should just go back through the portal. But will it bring her back to her time, or will she be lost in time forever?

  --

  Two years had passed, and Sheena had new companions, a Arctodus aka a ft faced bear she named Asterion, and a Gigantopithecus which she named Gilgamesh, both standing at 12 feet tall on their hind legs

  She also had a Smilodon aka Sabre Tooth Cat named Cw and all three of them lived with her in her cave. They lived on a diet of Bison, Mammoths and Giant Sloths, which made her lean and defined as there was no fat in this nd!

  She had scouted the nd, guessing that she was transported to North America, and had travelled from one sea to the other.

  Together with Icarus, she faced Thunderbirds in North America, and with Gilgamesh and Asterion faced the many red headed giants in North America.

  She battled with tribes of Sasquatches where she met Gilgamesh, and also battled Short Faced bears where she eventually befriended Asterion.

  After two years of battling, Sheena was tired and prepared to go home already. Triton didn't like the weather and neither did Sereya.

  Preparing to return, Sheena prepared Triton as a bracelet on her left wrist, Icarus as a tiara in her hair, Sereya somewhere on her body, and Asterion and Gilgamesh shrunked and attached to her shins on her body.

  She walked through the snow and was pleased that the portal was still there. Taking a deep breath and stepped in

  --

  Sheena walked out and saw Tarzan there waiting for her

  "Tarzan? You were here all along?" Sheena asked, wondering how long he had been waiting for

  "What do you mean? You had just entered the portal moments ago!" Tarzan said

  Sheena was shocked. She was gone for two years, and nearly no time had passed at all?

  Sheena introduced Tarzan to Fang, Asterion and Gilgemesh and brought out Icarus, Sereya and Triton to greet him again

  Sheena had practically repced her companions Yagua the Jaguar, Chim the spider monkey and Peter the macaw. Now she had Fang the Sabre Tooth Cat, Gilgamesh the Gigantopithecus, an Icarus the Pterosaur!

  Not including her two years on the portal, Sheera had spent weeks in the Congo, meeting the many dinosaurs that were in the jungles of the Congo.

  She got her companions to shrink and get on her again, and Tarzan apologized as he felt that he was no longer needed. Sheena apologized that she couldn't be his mate

  She bade Tarzan goodbye and started her track back to the vilge where she abandoned her car weeks ago

  It took several days when vilgers watched as a blonde haired woman dressed in leopardskin loincloth walked out of the jungle. She had been reported missing weeks ago, as well as the militia soldiers were killed in the middle of the vilge weeks ago

  Other government soldiers came to investigate, but gave up after they could not find her and dared not go deeper into the jungle

  So when she walked out of the jungle the vilgers were shocked

  She went to her jeep, which were covered in vines, and her bag that she stashed there had been looted

  She asked the vilgers where he stuff was and the vilgers quickly pointed to a house of the person who stole her belongings

  She walked into the house, with the terrified vilger quickly returning her passport, and her clothes

  She walked out and somehow still managed to start the car, dressed in her khaki shorts and blouse, with Icarus, Thiton, Asterion and Gilgamesh still on her body. Fang jumped onto the jeep

  She pulled out the vines and engaged the gearbox, as she drove back to the N'djili International Airport, using her prebooked ticket. Fortunately, it was still valid, and she had pre-booked several months ahead. Her trip to the portal and the jungle was still within the period of the ticket

  She bought extra baggage to carry her "kitty cat" which was a shrunken Fang in a pet cage to bring to the pne

  Several hours ter, she arrived back in New York, now confident and prepared to face the invisible Predator if she ever met him again

  She was much more powerful now, stronger and faster, and with more abilities

  She walked into her apartment, showing her new companions her home, a rooftop apartment with plenty of room for the many monstrous creatures

  The rooftop apartment overlooked the city of New York and Icarus flew into the air, but not too high, just enough to go above Sheena within her apartment

  "I'll get dressed, and bring you guys out for dinner. I did promise you new and different foods" Sheena said

  She got dressed in a red dress, she hadn't worn a dress in months, and she took her companions out for dinner

  They sat at a famous steakhouse as she fed her miniature companions, bite size pieces of steak

  "Why do you humans burn your meat over fire?" Sereya asked

  "We humans have weaker stomachs. We need to burn our meats before eating to kill the bacteria on the meat" she said

  "What is.. bacteria?" Triton asked from her wrist

  She had to expin about bacteria and how they can cause food poisoning to humans

  "Do you get food poisoning?" Triton asked

  "No... my stomach has the durability of a komodo dragon. So I don't worry about food poisoning" Sheena said

  "I do enjoy the spices the humans use on food though" Asterion said, pretending to be part of her boots

  "Oh, this is only garlic, salt and pepper" Sheena said, having ordered her steak as rare as possible

  The finished dinner and walked out of the restaurant

  "I enjoyed the.... coffee" Gilgamesh said from her shins

  "Good that you guys enjoyed that. Asterion, I will introduce you to more spices" Sheena said

  Instead of walking directly to her car, she walked to a nearby deli to order a shawarma!

  As they arrived at her pce, they enrged to their usual sizes as Sheena pulled out a pstic bag filled with shawarma!

  "One for you, one for you.." Sheena said, tossing to each of them their own shawarma package.

  "No, Asterion. You have to unwrap it first" Sheena said, seeing Asterion gobble the whole thing up, with the paper packaging wrapped around it

  "It was delicious either way" Asterion said

  Fang used the ground and his paws to tear apart the packaging and enjoyed the meal inside

  Sereya deftly removed the packaging and fed herself her shawarma

  Triton, who could have eaten a whole cow, gobbled up his shawarma having somehow unwrapped it

  "Ok, my friends. I will be going to bed now. Icarus, don't fly too high and try to keep within this apartment" she said

  "What is bed?" Sereya asked

  "Oh it is the pce humans sleep in. It is a soft... uh... thing that we sleep on" Sheena said, having missed sleeping in her bed for months

  She had been sleeping in the jungle with her companions for months

  She walked to her bed, stripping nude, and plopped herself on her bed, falling asleep

  Asterion and Gilgamesh walked in to see and y down next to her, like they had for years in the portal

  At the end, Sheena y naked in her bed with Fang, Asterion, Gilgamesh, Sereya and Icarus, with Triton wrapping his body around the bed protecting them in the room. They had slept like this all the time in the portal, only they had huddled up for warmth

  Here, they were warm and had spread out, Sheena slept with her body spread eagled and naked
