Jurassic Park IV: The Return
A/N: Ok, this is a story written by two Trevor Morgan (Eric Kirby) fanatics. We thought there should be something about what happened when Eric got home, and what would happen if he had to go back to Isla Sorna for some reason.
In the authors' opinions, it's well written in the first chapters, but they don't go back to the island until chapter four. So don't look at this and think, "Oh, there isn't even any dinosaurs in this story." There are, you just have to wait a few chapters. Ok? Also, you'll have to get used to Dana and Cordelia saying strange things. They were strongly based on us, and well, we say strange things. :-)
Disclaimer: Courtney and I (Dani,) only made up the characters of Dana, Cordelia (they're based on us in case the names didn't give you a clue,) Bob, and Eddie. We didn't invent Jurassic Park. We also don't own Eric Kirby or Trevor Morgan, but maybe someday…. Hey, girls can dream, can't they?
1 Chapter One
Eric Kirby stepped through the doors of Enid Jr. High for the first time in three months. He had missed the months of school while stranded on an island crawling with dinosaurs for eight weeks. Jurassic Park, Isla Sorna, Site B. Hell on earth. Call it what you want, but for two months, Eric had called it his home. Eight long, lonely, terrifying weeks.
It was so strange to be back in school. He felt like he had never been there. Like a foreign exchange student. He saw all his old friends and teachers as if through a peephole. There, but distorted and in a different world.
If you saw him walking down the hall you would think he was afraid of being picked on by bullies, the way he was constantly looking over his shoulder and jumping at every sound.
But it wasn't bullies he was afraid of. To tell the truth, he was still traumatized about his whole experience on the island. To him, the slamming of lockers was the stomping of a Tyrannosaurus, and the shuffling of papers was the flapping wings of a Pteredon.
His parents, who had recently gotten back together, were afraid this would happen. That's why they had waited another month before sending him back to school. He needed to relax. The month hadn't helped much.
Now, back in school, it wasn't just the memories of the island that got to Eric, it was the going back to school in itself that worried him.
He wasn't nervous about all the work he had missed. He knew he could keep up, being that he was very smart and in all advanced classes. No, it wasn't the work. It was something entirely different.
Eric had always been a quiet kid. Kind of shy. He knew that half the kids at school knew about his island ordeal, and the clueless half would find out by the end of the day. He didn't want everyone crowding around him and asking questions about Isla Sorna. He was having enough trouble forgetting as it was.
"Hey, Eric!" he gasped at his name and snapped his head around, as if expecting to see a vilosa raptor behind him.
"Chill, it's just us." Breathing a huge sigh of relief, he waited for his adrenaline to go back to normal level. It had just been Dana, his best friend; and Cordelia, his girlfriend. They smiled and both gave him a hug. Cordelia gave him a peck on the cheek.
"Oh, my God. We were so worried about you when we heard! We thought we'd never get to see you again!" Dana exclaimed.
"Yeah, you should've seen us the day we found out. We were in hysterics the rest of the day. They let us go home," Cordelia said. She smiled.
"We're really glad you're okay. We tried coming to your house every day but you were never home," Dana explained.
Eric smiled a little. "Ughh, I know. My parents have been dragging me to therapists and family outings since we got home," he said. "I missed you guys, too."
BRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIINNNNG!
"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!" Eric yelled. Cordelia put her hand on his shoulder.
"Dude, calm down. It's just the bell," Dana said.
"Sorry, I'm just kind of jumpy lately," Eric apologized.
"Come on. Let's get to class. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I almost miss school," he said.
"Sure that's just what you want us to think," Cordelia joked.
"Right. It's all a conspiracy. They make you think you miss school so that you'll want to go back," Dana joined in. (A/N: I told you they say weird things :-) )
Eric laughed. He'd known he'd feel better once he was with his friends again.
They walked to class together talking about everything. Well, everything except Eric's time on the island. That's one thing he loved about them. They always knew what they shouldn't bring up around him.
The morning seemed to go by quickly. Somehow, Eric avoided the subject of Isla Sorna all morning. It wasn't until 5th period, lunch, when it started.
Eric, Dana, and Cordelia were sitting at the lunch table eating when Tony, a big burly 16 year old (and still in the 7th grade,) walked up to Eric. "What's the matter, Dinosaur Boy? So afraid a T-Rex will come stomping in that you need girls to protect you?" he sneered.
Suddenly Eric lost his appetite. He'd been afraid something like this would happen. Cordelia took his hand underneath the table.
Dana turned to Tony. "Oh, shut up, jerk," she snapped.
"Yeah. You're just jealous because you know you couldn't survive a backyard camping trip for a day if your mommy wasn't there. Now why don't you lay off Eric and go away?" Cordelia yelled.
"Fine. See ya around, Dinosaur Boy," Tony turned, defeated, and stomped angrily away.
"Ughh, don't worry about him. He's just mad because you're cuter, nicer, and defiantly smarter than he will ever be," Cordelia said. Eric looked at her gratefully.
"Awww, man. I can tell you two are gonna get all mushy if I don't keep talking. She's right, Eric. Just forget about that idiot," Dana agreed.
Eric nodded, but he couldn't forget.
A/N: I know nothing much happened yet. Just stick around for the next two chapters. Chapter three is where it starts getting interesting.
