Authors Note - So I was watching Jurassic World yesterday and absolutely loved it. After I was done so many ideas came to mind for a story so why not give it a shot. I do like Claire and Owens relationship but I'm keeping it as just friends in this story. Well I hope people like it and don't forget to leave me a review and everything.
Owen heard the alarm go off and groaned turning over and hitting it to stop. He sat up turning to look at the woman next to him who was knocked out as always. Owen started to come to the conclusion either she did hear the alarm but just didn't want to.
"Ria, come on we gotta get up time for work." He shook her only for her to groan putting a pillow over her head making him chuckle. "Nice try but that unfortunately is not gonna help you." He snatched it off her head hitting her with it. "Now come on get up, get up."
"Ugh! For god sakes I'm up and stop that." She took the pillow hitting him with it before sitting up. Her long dark brown hair with honey blonde tips tell in her face over her brown eye's.
"Bed hair." Owen pointed out ruffling her hair.
"Oh yeah make it worse." She grumbled he went to touch her head again only for her to grab his hand out of reflex. Aria tilted her head over to him smirking and was met with a smile. "To fast for you Owen."
He shrugged. "Well me myself like it fast how about you?"
"Yeah." Aria nodded before her eye's widen realizing what he just said. They turned to slits as she quickly jumped on him. Her leg's where straddling by his and started hitting him with the pillow. "You-are-a-pervert!" She said while continuing to hit him.
Owen laughed before grabbing her and throwing her over his shoulder ignoring all her protest. Him and Aria have been together for almost two years now. Besides him and Barry she was the best Velociraptor female trainer. Not to mention she is the only one he was definitely drawn to how she interacted with them. Her love for dinosaurs was amazing she didn't think any of them where bad. Others may say there creations but they didn't think that. To them they where living breathing creatures with hearts to.
He lowered her to the ground but didn't let go she smiled up at him. He leaned down placing his lips against her's. She smiled wrapping her arms around his neck. His hand roamed down Aria's back before pulling her closer. Aria's phone started going off making her break the kiss and walk away.
Owen rolled his eye's. "I wonder who that is." He said in a sarcastic tone.
Looking at the screen Aria laughed. "It's my brother what do you have power's or something?"
"No he just always call when were having us time I really need to see if he has a camera hooked up in here."
"Oh stop you drama queen and go get dressed." Aria waved him off.
He smirked then looking down. "Says to the girl with just a shirt and underwear on."
"Watch it Grady." She said sternly pointing he put his hand's up in defense going in the bathroom.
She shook her head Owen was the only guy she met that understood her. He liked her interest in Dinosaurs not like most guys. Most of them just shrugged it off before hitting her with the samething 'Aren't they extinct.' But when Owen responded differently she was almost shocked. There was not a moment she didn't feel happy and safe with him.
"What's up Bro?" Aria asked as she answered the phone.
"Look who's up about time did you forget what today is?"
"No wha-" Aria paused looking at the date on the calender before slapping her forehead. "Ah crap that's today?"
"Yeah hey you been promising Anna this for a and let's not mention you haven't seen her since she was five."
"Not my fault Avery okay have you forgotten my job it's not like I can come home and drive back. Sorry it doesn't work that way but go on and send her it is her birthday." Aria shrugged feeling defeated.
"Already ahead of that she and her bestfriend Amy should be there in another three hours. Take care of those girls Ria i'm serious don't tell me they got eaten."
Aria rolled her eyes. "Shutup it can happen but I won't gotta go talk to you later." She hung up Owen walked over sitting down next to her.
"You alright?"
"I wish." She sighed.
Owen leaned up patting his lap making her smile a bit before she sat down. He wrapped a arm around her waist before one over her leg's. "Now what's going on?"
"Avery reminded me it was Anna's birthday today I already promised she could come here for a month now. And now she is her and her bestfriend Amy." Aria did little hazz hands before shaking her head.
"Hey, Ria look at me." He turned her head to him. "It's gonna be fine and look we let them tour the park for a bit. And after our shift we go meet up with them, how about that?"
Aria smiled. "That you're the best!" She hugged him.
"Yeah now see that I know now go get dressed." He said pulling away from the hug.
Aria stood up scratching her head. "I really hope Vic isn't there today he pisses me the hell off man. I swear one day I'm gonna just throw him right inside of paddock 9." She growled.
Owen chuckled. "Hey you know I feel the same way but just ignore him."
"I can't he's just so...arghh!" Aria stomped not even knowing what to call him.
"Yeah that's saying a lot." He nodded.
"Oh hush." She waved him off.
Getting dressed Aria put on her black denim short's tan timberland boots. Her tan button down collard shirt with it unbutton a bit up top, and the sleeves rolled up. A black vest like Owen's but smaller and tighter and left her hair that was now wavy out. Grabbing her black fingerless gloves they ate before leaving. Aria kept her gun tucked in the back of her pants just in case.
"Ready to go?" Owen asked getting on his motorcycle.
Aria hoped on holding tightly on to him. "Now I am." He smirked before starting it up and pulling off.
Getting there Aria walked across the steel like cat walk. She pulled out her clicker walking back to stand near Owen. Some other guys where watching but not tourist. Occasionally Owen would catch them staring at Aria and had to tell them off. But Aria seemed to sometimes beat him to it before he could.
"You got there food?" Owen called out.
Aria nodded putting the bucket down. "Yeah I got it quick question, who let's there girlfriend carry dead rats?"
"I did offer to do it." He pointed out. "But I did at least put them in there for you."
"Such a gentleman." Aria smirked they looked up once they heard the pig. The Raptors where definitely right behind it.
"Ready?"
"Born ready." She winked
"Hold It!" Both of them called out at there demand, the four Raptors stopped looking up at the duo. Owen and Aria held up both hands, one with there clicker and one to keep them still.
"Okay, eyes on us." Owen ordered as he slowly started to shift. Along with Aria. "Blue- Blue!" Owen pointed to the named Velociraptor who finally looked up. "Watch it! Charlie, Charlie hey!" Owen called out Charlie shrieked at them.
Aria frowned. "Don't give us that shit today." She looked down she loved them they were a pack but Delta was her favorite. Holding up her own clicker she clicked at Echo and Delta. "Hey, yeah Ibsee you Delta! and you Echo!"
The two Raptors growled at her as she gave them a stern look before shuffling slightly back to the pack.
Owen nodded to her. "Good! And…we're moving."
The duo walked sideways along the catwalk steel. While bringing the quartet of Raptors with them as they edged toward the food. As they reached the bucket Owen held his hand out. "Hold!"
"Good girls, that's good," Aria appraised the dinosaurs as they stopped below them.
Owen picked up a dead rat, holding it up and throwing it to Charlie. "See Charlie? That's what you get."
"Echo!" the Raptor looked up as Aria chucked she threw it. She caught it and her teeth snapped shut with the food inside. She then pulled out another and clicked for Delta's attention, "Delta! This is yours, girl."
Delta's jaw slammed shut on the rat, jumping up to grab it before her tail swayed happily.
"Little show off." Owen muttered before pulling out the largest rat and lifting it in front of Blue. "Blue! This one's for you."
"Oh please you know you like it." She winked. As soon as all the Raptors had finished, they held there hands up again.
"Hold! Eyes up!" Owen called his shifted to Aria.
"And… go!" Aria finished.
The four dinosaurs sped off like lightning leaving the couple standing on the catwalk. They heard a group of cheers from the onlookers and workers there.
"You know Delta loves me more then you right?" Aria asked.
"Really I haven't even noticed, you know a female training Raptors is a turn on for me right?" Owen asked looking over at her.
Aria chuckled standing closer to him with a raised eyebrow. "Is it now? Just when I thought it was girl's with green eye's."
"Your never gonna let that go are you?" Owen brow raised amused.
"I'm completely over it." She put her hands up in defense.
"So you're not jealous?" Owen asked.
Aria folded her arm's over her chest. "Not even a little bit."
"That tone say other wise Ria." He rested a hand on her hip. "You're the one for me alright you know that remember my promise."
She smiled remembering it. "That no matter what happens you're always gonna protect me. And as long as were together we can make it out of anything."
"And I mean that." He looked to see her pretty brown eye's staring back at him.
"I believe you." She nodded.
"There you guys are." Barry jogged over.
Aria smiled giving him a small hug. "Hey Barry."
"Hey man." Owen gave him a bro hug.
"What took you guys so long?" He asked.
"Sleepy head over here." Owen slung his arm over Aria shoulders.
Aria was about to retort when Vic Hoskins shoved his way onto the platform grinning at them.
"Ah, there she is looking great Aria." Vic stated, crossing his arms.
"Vic." Aria nodded.
"You know I was beginning to think I hired the wrong people." Vic nodded. "But you guys got 'em eating out of your palm definitely you with that other one Aria." He nodded.
"Her name is Delta." Aria corrected with a annoyed tone.
"You came on a good day." Owen replied modestly taking her hand. "It usually doesn't end as well."
"Not what you're reports say." Vic smirked.
"Says to the guy that's never been in front of one unless they where caged. Besides if you can't deal with a Raptor you won't be able to deal with any other one." Aria glared at him.
"Coming from the expert herself we all remember what happened with Paddock 9." Vic said.
Owen looked over shooting him a look along with Barry. "Don't ever bring that back up Vic and i'm serious."
Aria just closed her eye's thinking about that her love for dinosaurs got the best of her. Owen told her not to but curiosity got the best of her.
Flashback
"Aria you have some crazy ideas but this has to be the most craziest one. I can not let you go in there alone at that." Owen said speed walking next to her.
"Hey look it's worth a shot." She pointed out. "You're willing to come along if you want but your not stopping me."
"Aria is doing something man is afraid to do let her live a little Owen." Vic interrupted.
"Hey stay out this and no what she's doing is asking for a suicide ticket." He stated looking at her.
Aria rolled her eye's. "Whatever Owen i just really want to try so let me okay?"
"Fine..fine but if I see the slightest thing wrong happens i'm coming in. And if you feel something is off you get out of there." He put his hands on her shoulders so they where face to face. "And never turn your back." He warned.
Aria nodded smiling. "I understand I'll be fine I promise."
He hugged her one more time before letting her go as she walked to the huge steel Paddock. The door opened as she slid under the bottom. A loud footstep made her look around it was like a small/medium sized forest.
She heard a growling like noise. "Rexa?" All she got in return was another low like growl. If somebody heard this they would think she is stupid for this. But Aria had a passion for T-Rex for some reason she always felt like there was more to them.
The T-Rex looked at the young girl from the tree's. "Rexa I'm by myself here nobody else just me."
She came out more from the tree's making two loud footsteps. She finally saw her looking dead ahead in her direction. Her hands went up as she did looking at her an amazing creature.
Owen looked on with the others that where outside looking at the scene from the laptop. Since Aria had a jacket on they had a small little camera hooked on.
Vic nodded. "Amazing let's see how Rexa does when there's more people."
Owen eye's widen grabbing him by the collar ignoring protest from other men. "Have you lost your damn mind huh? Aria isn't in there with Raptor you idiot your gonna get her killed."
"Sorry kid I got my orders...now move in!"
The men slowly started going to the paddock door Owen ran over but hid behind a truck so he wouldn't be seen. He wasn't about to let Vic do this..not to her he wasn't.
Aria's hair fell in her face as she looked at Rexa taking a step forward. She pulled her backpack off reaching in it hearing a growl.
"Easy girl..easy." She put her hand up not wanting to upset her. Rexa took a loud step forward making Aria raised a brow. "Hey there easy!" She got up leaving her backpack taking a step to her not breaking eye contact. Rexa looked at her in curiosity.
A snap of a tree branch stopped them turning to see many of the solider workers that was there. Rexa let out a loud roar making Aria fall back she was so close. Now she was frozen in fear Aria got up to see her large foot coming down.
"Get down!" Owen yelled tackling her out of the way just in time. Rexa started going wild attacking the men. Owen helped Aria up as they ran to the door. Hearing a man's scream Aria stopped and looked back with Owen. The guy was having trouble getting out and looked to be the only one left.
She ran back taking out a flare popping it. "Come on Rexa follow me!" She called out before running with it and Rexa on her tail. Owen help the man up and looked back to see the door slowly closing.
"Aria the paddock gate!"
"Just go i'm right behind you!" She yelled out still running before throwing the flare somewhere else. Aria wasted no time getting to the exit only to hear Rexa's loud roar behind her. The gate was almost down and Rexa was right behind her. Aria slid under but felt a sharp pain in her back as she did. Rexa's head and body hit the paddock gate as it was now secured.
Owen ran over kneeling down. "Aria come on you alright?"
She hissed in pain but nodded before slowly getting up and hugging Owen crying in his shoulder. He sighed before hugging her back but felt a warm liquid on her shirt.
He looked down seeing a long open cut going in a diagonal on her back it wasn't deep but was bad. "We gotta get you some help Ria just hold on tight alright?"
She nodded weakly. "Okay."
End Flashback
"Aria you okay?" Owen asked snapping her out of thoughts.
"Yeah I'm fine seriously it was a dumb idea now that I think about it." She nodded with a fake smile.
In a way she just wanted to get close to her again but Rexa would never trust her again. Vic ruined everything she just wanted to change people opinions about T-Rex's. She didn't want Owen to blame himself which he sometimes did. But she took full responsibility of what happened.
"You still made history kid remember that you where this close." Vic said.
Her head snapped to him. "Yeah until a fat walrus messed it up for me and I failed." She said plainly shooting him a look that could kill.
"Anyway, what do you need buddy?" Owen asked Vic not taking his eye's off her.
"A field test." Vic stated pleading in his voice.
Owen and Aria immediately turned and strode away. Vic followed them still pleading to them his case. "I've just seen they can respond to command. We need to take your research and get it on the field."
"They're wild animals Hoskins." Owen stated, him and Aria turning a corner and heading for the Velociraptors cages.
"Trust us you don't want them in a field." Aria shook her head wanting him to leave.
"I just saw a bond a real bond, between man, woman and beast." Vic replied quickly, stopping in front of the couple.
"Vic-move." Aria gritted out the last part.
"Come on, guys." Vic answered enthusiastically.
Aria rolled her eyes and looked away watching the nearby Raptors with her brown eyes. She couldn't help but smile and wink when Delta caught her and the Raptor tilted her head slightly.
Suddenly Owen grabbed her hand, pulling her after him as he walked past Vic. As they stopped at the other end of the catwalk Barry walked over to them.
"Finally made some progress about deflecting what he says?" Barry inquired.
"Maybe." Owen shrugged.
"He wants to use the girls as damn weapons." Aria fist clenched by her side's.
"Weapons?" Barry repeated, shocked.
The four of them started to walk down the platform heading back towards the cages. Vic sighed.
"Come on, guys it's grown up time drones can't search tunnels and caves. And they're hackable the minute a real war breaks out all that tech is gonna go dark."
Aria scoffed as they turned again almost at the cages. "Yeah, but that tech won't eat them if they forget to feed it."
"Look, look at these creatures." Vic gestured to the Raptors. "They've got millions of years of instinct in their cells. Instinct that we can programme their loyalty cannot be bought. These guys are gonna run straight into the enemies teeth and eat 'em."
Aria snorted out a laugh at his expression and Barry laughed, whistling before walking off. Aria soon started laughing at him shaking her head.
"Wow." She mouthed.
Vic frowned. "What? What's so damn funny?"
"Well you come here and don't know anything about these animals except what you wanna know." Owen shrugged. "You made them and now you think you own them."
"We do own them," Vic stated. "Extinct species don't have rights."
This made Aria stop laughing giving him a glare. "Except for the fact that they're not extinct anymore, are they?"
"Exactly, we're sitting on a gold mine.." Hoskins continued, watching as the pair each picked up a bucket of food and finally went down to the cage.
Aria rolled her eyes as Hoskins went on about how their founder was using the Raptors to stock a petting zoo. And Owen reply with how he doesn't make weapons.
Aria just shook her head as they finished their conversation. Swinging open the metal door she began walking into the cage. She looked when her phone vibrated and pulled it out her pocket.
Owen soon walked in, slamming the cage behind him and locking it so Vic couldn't follow.
"Can you please stop talking it's only been a minute and my head hurts." Aria grumbled reading the text on her phone.
Anna - Hey Aunt Ria were almost here I can't wait to see you! The island looks so pretty even from afar.
She smiled about to reply but people yelling made her and Owen look up.
"Pig loose! Pig loose!" One guy shouted.
One of the workers tried to get the pig by using a long metal pole with a handle and a loop for his head. But failed to snatch up the pig and Charlie shot past snagging the pig and pulling the worker in. He fell to the ground with a thump, landing on his back with a groan. The four Raptors snapped their heads around to look at him.
In a split second Owen and Aria started moving she ran to the hatch pressing the button to release the hatch. As soon as there was a gap they both slid under. They pulled therselves up to their feet in the Velociraptors cage.
"Owen, Aria no!" Barry exclaimed running to the door. But it was too late they where already inside.
The four Raptors turned to the trainers as they both held up a hand in a stop motion. Seeing something out the corner of her eye Aria's eyes widened.
"No, No! don't shoot!" Aria exclaimed, shaking her head.
"Hold your fire! Hold you fire do not fire." Owen agreed, holding his hands out to calm the Raptors. "Put twelve amps in these animals they're never gonna trust me and Ria again."
The man who'd fallen in scrambled backwards quickly. Barry grabbed him by the arms and dragged him through the cage before darting back to watch his friends.
"Blue, stand down…" Owen breathed out, staring at the dinosaur. "Stand down." He said again but more sternly.
"Delta," Aria said sternly the animal paused tilting her head curiously to look at her.
Blue screeched at Owen who frowned. "Hey, hey! What did i just say?"
Aria glanced away from Delta to hold her palm out to Charlie. "Charlie easy." She said calmly she screeched at her making Aria's eyes turn to slits. "Hey Charlie! What did i just tell you!" She said trying to calm down the other Raptor Delta edged again.
"Delta, I see you back up." Owen said glancing at her.
"Back up, Echo." Aria instructed, her gaze flickering briefly from Charlie to Echo.
After a few more screeches and shrieks the girls finally started to calm down. Though they slowly started to move towards them. Aria held her hands up, palms facing Delta and Echo. While Owen steadied Charlie and Blue both of there hearts pounding as they stood in front of them.
Charlie started edging closer and Owen looked to her. "Charlie."
Aria followed his stare. "Stay right there."
Owen looked to her as he lowered one hand she stared back as a conversation passed between the two. Aria's reluctantly dropped one of her hands but kept one firmly up.
"Lower the gate," Owen told Barry as their stares not wavering from the animals.
"Are you two crazy?!" Barry exclaimed looking at the two.
Aria chuckled slightly. "Yes, yes we are but trust us and lower the gate."
"Close the gate!" The kid who fell cried from where he sat on the floor.
"Amateur." Aria scoffed earning a slight smirk from her boyfriend.
After a moment of silence the gates started lowering Barry darting there and back to watch. The two of them kept their hands raised to the dinosaurs. Until the last second when they quickly turned and ran sliding under the gate. They rolled under it just as it slammed shut and the dinosaurs lunged forwards.
Aria winced slightly as the four Velociraptors screeched and scratched at the cage, head-butting the iron bars as they tried to get out. They seemed to get bored and moved back slightly still staring at the cage. Barry walked over to help Owen up.
Owen then quickly helped up Aria brushing her off. "Thanks for being my backup."
"Always am and always will continue to be." She smiled before looking over at the guy and moved out of Owen's arms and passed Barry. Aria stooped down tucking hair behind her right ear and the rest in her face on the left. "You're the new guy, right?"
He quickly shook his head. "Yeah."
"You ever wonder why there was a job opening?" Her brow raised and she could tell a million thoughts came to mind. She rested a hand on his shoulder giving him a stern look. "Don't ever turn your back to the cage."
"Yes mam." He nodded.
"Call me Aria I'm not a mam yet." She winked giving him a smile before standing up. Aria walked over to Owen and saw Vic smirk at the two before leaving. "I really can't stand him out of everybody why can't he be the one to fall in there by mistake."
"Because you would take your time getting to him." Owen folded his arms over his chest.
She was about to protest before giving him a look. "Oh like you wouldn't."
"Point taken you coming back with me?"
"Can't Anna is here already have to go find them but I'll meet you back home." She pecked his lips before about to leave.
Owen grabbed her hand making her look back. "Be careful."
"Always will." She smiled before walking off she sighed getting to the truck they had at the cages. "Next stop family duties."
