Chapter 1
The jungles of Isla Nublar. All was quiet. Suddenly, four raptors appeared, chasing after a pig. It ran into a metal enclosure, followed by the four raptors. The leader was green with dark blue stripes along its back named Blue, the other was solid green named Delta, another was dirty green with stripes named Charlie, and the last one was beige with dark brown stripes on its back named Echo. The pig ran into a tunnel in the wall. The raptors heard a voice.
Voice: Hey! You four! Up here!
They looked up at an upper catwalk, unable to recognize the figure in the sunlight. The moved to a new angle and found it to be their alpha, Steven Universe. He was a child, despite his adventures in Isla Nublar being 20 years ago.
Steven: Alright! Eyes up here! Hey. Hey, come on girls, work with me here!
Charlie, Echo, and Delta looked up. But Blue was distracted.
Steven: Blue! Hey, Blue! Come on, don't give me any of that.
Blue looked up.
Steven: Ok. Good. We've got some routine stuff today. Who wants to play Hide-and-Seek?
The raptors screeched in agreement.
Steven: Alright. Take the scent. Track it down. Bring it back
Steven dropped a capsule into the cage. It started releasing scents that the raptors picked up. They were about to start.
Steven: Hold! Hold! Wait. Not until I say. Form up. Racing track. First one to find the scent gets the tastiest snack.
Blue, Echo, Charlie, and Delta prepared for their race.
Steven: Alright. Eyes up.
They raised their heads up.
Steven: Claws up.
They raised their large claws on their toes.
Steven: 3...2...1...GO!
The raptors rocketed into the jungle.
Steven's friend, Owen Grady walked up.
Owen: Nicely done! You finally made some progress with them.
An obese man with grey facial hair walked on the other side.
Owen: Hey, Hoskins.
Hoskins: Nice work, kid. You got 'em eating out of your palm.
Steven: Haven't we been over this, Hoskins? I'm not technically a kid. My body can't age unless I make it mentally, but according to the government, I'm 34.
Hoskins: Right. Sorry.
Owen: What do you need, buddy?
Hoskins: A field test.
Steven: Here we go.
The two began to walk away.
Hoskins: Wait! I've just seen they can respond to commands. We've gotta take the research and get it in the field.
Steven: These are wild animals. They don't belong in the field.
Garnet, Pearl, and Amethyst were on the catwalk, talking, and Garnet overheard the conversation, walking over to them.
Garnet: So. We finally make some progress and that's the first thing he says? Make a weapon?
Owen: What is it about raptors that makes you see weapons?
Hoskins: Come on. We know the military needs to reduce casualties. So send these guys in.
Steven: If you want to reduce casualties, don't send these guys in. They're not weapons. They're animals. The sooner you get that through your head, the sooner we can go back to ignoring you when you're gonna try turning them into weapons again.
Hoskins: Look at these things. They got millions of years of instinct. Instinct that we can program.
Owen: Program? We got drones for that.
Steven: Look, it's not about control. It's about trust and respect. None of which I have for you.
Hoskins: Drones. They can be reprogrammed and hacked. Not these things.
Steven grabbed a bucket, bringing it to the lower levels. He opened the gate, entering an area before the gate to the main gate. He closed the other gate.
Hoskins: War is a part of nature. War is a struggle. Struggle breeds greatness. Without that you end up in places like these, selling soda for 7 bucks.
Steven: Do you even hear yourself when you talk?
Hoskins: Can't stop this. Progress always wins.
Steven: Maybe we should give nature a chance for once.
Some of the handlers saw the pig was loose in the enclosure.
Handler: Pig loose!
A handler took a large pole with a leash, put it in the cage, and was about to bring the pig up, but Echo arrived back to snatch the pig, yanking the handler into the enclosure. Blue, Charlie and Delta walked towards him, preparing to eat him. Steven opened the gate into the enclosure.
Pearl: Steven? Steven, no!
Steven ran into the enclosure, in front of the raptors, holding his hands up to try and calm them. The handlers above prepared to incapacitate the raptors.
Steven: Don't shoot! Hold your fire! Put 12 amps in these things they'll never trust me again. Alright. Blue, stand down.
He held his hand towards Blue.
Steven: Stand down.
Blue snapped at him.
Steven: Hey. Secure that! What'd I just say? Stand down.
Blue stood back.
Steven: Delta, Charlie. I see you. Back up.
The raptors stood back.
Steven: Good. Alright. Nice. This is good. Close the gate.
Owen: What?
Steven: Close it.
Owen hit the button, closing the gate. It slowly went to the ground. Steven ran to the gate, ducking under the gate as it shut. Owen helped him up.
Owen: You are one crazy son of a bitch.
Steven: I know.
Hoskins just walked away, knowing that he may be right. On the island, an entire super park had been established, with a massive visitor center on main street. It had many attractions based on John Hammond's dream. In the Visitor center lab, the park administrator, a red headed woman named Claire Dearing. She was riding an elevator, reciting names to herself.
Claire: Jim Trucker, bad hair. Erica Brand deserves better. Hal, Jim, Erica, Hal, Jim, Erica, and I am Claire. 3 minutes late.
The doors opened.
Claire: Welcome to Jurassic World.
She gave a tour to three representatives of another company named Hal, Jim, and Erica.
Claire: Our shareholders have been patient but let's be honest...no one's impressed by a dinosaur anymore. 20 years ago, de-extinction was right up there with magic. These days, kids look at a stegosaurus like an elephant from the city zoo. That doesn't mean asset development is falling behind. Our DNA excavators discover new species every year. But consumers want them bigger, louder, more teeth. The good new? Our advances in gene splicing have opened up a whole new frontier. We've learned more from genetics in the past decade than a century of digging up bones. So when you say you want to sponsor an attraction, what did you have in mind?
Hal: We want to be thrilled.
Claire: Don't we all?
They ended up in the laboratory, next to a screen with an altered DNA strand.
Claire: The Indominus Rex. Our first genetically modified hybrid.
Jim: How did you get two kinds of dinosaurs to...
Henry Wu from Jurassic Park spoke up.
Dr. Wu: Indominus wasn't bred. She was designed. She'll be 50 ft long when fully grown. Bigger than the T-rex.
Erica: When will she be ready?
Claire: She already is.
