Story Outline
Many years ago I created a general story outline that has evolved over time. There are two parts to the story. The first part takes place when the dinosaurs roamed the earth. The second part occurs in modern times. WARNING: It’s a little crazy, the time frames used are clearly ridiculous, and no science is used.
What archeologists don’t realize is that the dinosaurs were intelligent. They had a vast civilization that spanned the globe. One day a spaceship crash landed on Earth. The space travelers were chimpanzees. The dinosaurs captured the chimps and proceeded to perform experiments on them since they had never encounter an alien species before. One result of the experiments was the creation of homo erectus.
The chimps track their wayward ship to Earth and find out that their brethren were experimented on. They go berserk and call in their fleet. They bombard Earth and kill off the dinosaurs who don’t have the benifit of opposable thumbs to defend themselves. The dinosaur scientist who created the homo erectus specimens is able to cryogenically freeze his creations before he dies. The chamber holding the homo erectus specimens is uncovered during an earthquake and is damaged. Emergency protocols thaw the specimens and they escape.
present day:
Many years later, the chimps come back to earth and are surprised to find humans. They realize that humans are descended from the chimps that crash landed and were experimented on. Angered by the “abominations” they again call for their fleet. To survive, humans clone dinosaurs from fossilized bones and team up with them. Dinosaur technology with human’s oppossable thumbs are able to defeat the chimp aliens.
