Chapter 1: Arrival

A/N: Hi everyone, Tori here. This is my fanfiction of an original character in Jurassic Park. Specifically, Isla Sorna site B. I have based this off of my knowledge from internet research, the books and the movies I've watched like a hundred times! Also, Lusa is not helping me write this and this is my first JP fanfiction so please be kind. Oh, the setting is based off the movie Jurassic Park III and takes place between the time of the Isla Nublar incident and the second movie, possibly through the second movie…. I'm not sure yet.

Disclaimer: I do not own Jurassic Park! If I did I would have to be a lot older!

Story Start

I gasped as I gazed out the window of the chopper. The island was absolutely beautiful! Tearing my eyes away from the passing scenery I hugged my father, who was sitting next to me. He smiled at my excitement and I returned to looking at the view. The island just screamed tropical no matter where you looked. The sky we flew through bright blue with puffy white clouds. The jungle far below was lush and green, trees claiming the mountain sides and most of the low lands. Wide rivers flowed through the valleys, giving it a peaceful look.

That's when I first saw it. The whole reason we were here. Dinosaurs! The Brachiosaurus was heavyset but what was most striking was it's height! I bounced in my seat, in excitement, when I saw the rest of the Brachiosaur herd. My dad laid a steadying hand on my shoulder. The Brachiosaurs echoed their strange call as the helicopter passed over their heads. I hadn't believed my dad when he told me where we were moving too. I remembered him telling me that he had been excepted for a once in a lifetime project to recreate dinosaurs. Of course, I had heard of the infamous Jurassic Park project but everyone said that it wasn't possible and no one believed it. I was one of those people until this moment. There was no way to deny a dinosaur was standing right there! " We will be landing shortly, please remain seated." I heard the pilot say. This was way to good to be true! The helicopter started its descent over the landing pad. The landing was a little bumpy but we made it. We had touched down on the landing site above the compound we were to stay at.

I unbuckled my seatbelt and jumped out of the helicopter swiftly. I looked around at what I could see of the island. My new home, Isla Sorna.

I gasped, coming out of the dream. I glanced at my clock, which read 1:00am. I haven't had that dream in a while. I thought to myself, I yawned and lay back down to sleep once more.

The tall man, whose name I didn't know, led the way to where my father and I would stay. He showed me to a room under the staircase, which led to my father's room. I smiled at the room. The entrance was small but the room was big enough to hold a small, low to the floor bed and had shelves on the surrounding walls. In the back, right corner of the room their was a small door. The tall man noticed my gaze. "That is a storage room for emergency supplies. It is only one of the emergency areas and will hopefully never be used." He said with a smile. I smiled at him before asking what it was for. "It opens into a tiny room that holds flashlights, batteries, a medicine kit, and a hell of a lot of food rations." He grinned and winked. "however, they taste horrible." I laughed at that and he left to show my dad to his room. I listened as they climbed the stairs over my head.

After they left, I turned around to where my things had been placed at the entrance. I began putting away my belongings in my new room. It took a while but eventually all my books, art supplies and writing materials had a place on the shelves. There was a dresser in which I placed my clothes. With everything in its place I turned to close the door. It was then I noticed the two small knobs on the inside, one was to slide the whole door closed and the other was to a small sliding window. I stepped outside into the hall and realized that there were no marks on the outside to show it was a room. I guessed it was because it was an emergency room but if I left the window cracked while I was out it would be easy to get in. Stepping back inside I slid the door closed and did the heavy latch on the door, I noticed that the window also had a latch just like the door.

Stepping back I grinned at my handy work at turning this emergency bunker into a room. Then I lifted the latch, cracked the window and stepped into the hall closing my door. My dad was coming down the stairs then and he smiled at me happily. I ran to hug him like the silly 13 year old I was, jumping up to hug his neck. "Happy Birthday Seda!" he said softly, yet enthusiastically. I grinned as he sat me down. "This is the best birthday ever!" I told him, spinning in a happy circle.

I woke up slowly, my mind fuzzy as I took in my surroundings. Bleak, dark. I had been dreaming again. Dreaming of those days I would do anything to bring back. I glanced at my clock. It read 9:00am. I sighed, it had taken me since I had fallen asleep at 11:00pm last night until now to dream about two hours worth of events. It was strange the way time warped itself in dreams. I got up and bent over my calendar to mark off the day. I hardly ever actually looked at the month or date I was going to mark. Today, I looked. I gasped and stepped back suddenly. June 5th. My birthday! The day it had all started only -I glanced at the year on the calendar - only 4 years ago. So much had changed since then. I turned to my bookshelf and pulled out my photo album. Flipping to the first page I couldn't help but smile at the picture. It was of my father and I at dinner the first night we had been there. My birthday cake sitting on the table in front of us. That was our first day on the island and my 13th birthday.

I turned the page to the next photo. Obviously, I had been the one with the camera here. It was a picture of an egg clutch as we were given a tour of the facilities. I flipped through the pages quickly, I had seen all of these pictures many times before. Some were of people , others were of places, and some were of the dinosaurs. I froze at the last page. It was a picture of my 14th birthday party. The memories hit me like wave surges from a storm.

I remembered it all so clearly. A big celebration with all the staff there and my father. Telling them all goodnight when the party ended. Falling asleep, then waking up to the sounds of chopper blades. The horrible shouting and screaming. People running and dinosaurs bellowing from their cages in fear. Ingen had called a forced evacuation and no one knew about it till the choppers arrived. Animals that were sent into a rampage, from the commotion, broke through cages which pushed the evacuation even faster. I gathered that small bit of information from the shouts outside my room. I had stayed inside, terror gripping me, when my father appeared and told me to stay put until he came for me. Then he was gone, they all were.

I shuddered from the memory. I tuned out most of it, whenever I had to think of it. That night was something I never wanted to remember. Nevertheless it was the reason I was here alone for... three years. I still couldn't believe how much of an illusion time could become when you were locked away from the world. It didn't feel like it had been three years, it was more like a blink of an eye.

A/N: Wow that was kind of deep . Soooo, if anyone is confused Seda is now 17 years old and has been on the island a total of 4 years and on her own for 3 years. If anyone has any questions I will be happy to answer them if I can and please constructive criticism only! Thank you, hope you all enjoyed the first chapter! ~Tori
