1 Julia walked into Brian's room as he was packing his bag and putting on his dinosaur-hunting hat.
2 "What's today's mission?" she asked.
3 "You know the rules," Brian smiled.
4 "Aw, not again," she whined. "It's your turn to guess!"
5 "Wrong," Brian said. "You were in charge last time."
6 "Fine," she said. "Let's get this over with. I want to go outside and play kickball."
7 Brian smiled again and pulled out a notebook covered in a weird green material. He flipped through the notebook until he found just the right page.
8 "Remember," he said, "it only took me six clues to figure out which dinosaur we were hunting last time."
9 "Can we please just start?" she asked, rolling her eyes.
10 "Clue #1- Its name means "fused lizard," Brian said.
11 "Great, that's no help at all," Julia moaned.
12 "Fine, here's Clue #2- It lived in the Cretaceous (kri ta shus) Period," he said with a grin.
13 "That helps a bit," she smiled, playing with the end of her long blonde hair. "Keep going."
14 "I'd better give her a good one this time to be fair," Brian thought to himself.
