Carefully he inserted the needle into the lower right wing of a large red bird.

It was a baby

It was dead.

It had been chryogenically frozen for approximately eighty-six million years.

The group of scientists known as Amrahd had found it in a tank one thousand feet under sea level. They had no clue as to how chryogenics had been used in such a primitive times, but what they did know was that it was an extinct species--or, at least, a species no one had ever discovered.

In the room next door, a parallel operation was being performed on a surprisingly identical bird. The needles were inserted in the same spot at the same exact moment, and the two birds' eyes opened simultaniously.
