Fight or Flight

戦うか逃げるか

“You know, boy, there’s only one thing I crave more than world domination: REVENGE!”
-Ogel to Harmona.

Plot:

Harmona eventually finds Mindy and frees her, but Ogel springs the trap and captures all of Team Nexus and prepares to execute Harmona.  But the day is saved when Alpha Team arrives, followed by Koron and the other dinosaurs, but Ogel orders the Mutant Dinosaurs to attack.  A vicious battle erupts.  Alpha Team, Nova Team, & Team Nexus drive off all the drones and all the Mutant Dinosaurs.  Koron awakens his true power and defeats the Mutant Giganotosaurus.  The Mutant Dinosaurs return to normal, and the Giganotosaurus, who is revealed to be Turok, thanks Koron before leaving.  Harmona, on the other hand, is fighting a losing fight.  Ogel has severely beaten him and shot him in the thigh with a poisonous arrow, then he closes in for the kill, but Harmona unleashes a powerful blast, knocking his enemy down.  He slices Ogel’s cybernetic arm off and beats him out cold.  As the heroes celebrate their victory, the venom in the arrow begins to take its toll on Harmona, and it severely weakens him, causing him to collapse, unconscious and on the verge of death.

Radia has tended to Harmona’s wound and healed him with an antidote while Dash and Cam strapped Ogel down in a cell tightly to take him back to jail.  They bid the Alayssians and dinosaurs farewell, and the others leave to a water cave to rest for the night.  Koron tries to apologize to Harmona for his behavior earlier, but Harmona angrily refuses, blaming himself for the destruction of Eastern Dinosauria and severing the Nova-Nexus alliance for good.  He and the others hide in the cave.  Mindy walks away, crying, and Harmona follows her to comfort her.  They renew their bond in a secret part of the cave and decide to dedicate themselves to each other in an unexpected way: lose their virginity.  After making love, they proclaim their love for one another…
