Gohan gathers more food for his wounded friend, and on the way home, he punches a boulder to test his strength. It hurts his hand, so he walks off. Unknown to him, the boulder shatters moments after he leaves. When he returns, the same dinosaur that attacked Gohan before is attacking the wounded dinosaur. Gohan flies at him, sword drawn, but is kicked away. Gohan gets, jumps on his back, and is about to drive the sword into his back, but he is flicked away by his tail. Gohan is knocked unconscious, and the dinosaur kills and eats the wounded dinosaur. When Gohan wakes up, he finds the skeleton of his friend, and carries on with his survival training.
