A violent thunderstorm crackled over the night sky. Heavy raindrops poured down from above. It had been only three years since anyone had ever set foot in Isla Nublar. The cracks in the streets of Jurassic World were being clogged by moss. Buildings had windows smashed open for the smaller dinosaurs to crawl in and make their own nests for laying their fertilized eggs. Due to the fact that each of these prehistoric beasts had the DNA of a common reed frog to complete their genetic structure, this allowed for sexual reproduction to be easier. For any common human, this was an abandoned ghost park littered with monsters that would kill on sight.
Three years ago, the gates to Jurassic World were open, providing a safer tourist attraction to succeed the original Jurassic Park that opened up twenty-five years ago. However, there were many tourists that wanted something new and exciting instead of the once-extinct creatures from before.
That was when the Indominus Rex was born.
A genetically-bred hybrid, this creature had the reflexes of a Velociraptor while using the DNA of other animals to increase her deadly stealth, like the Tyrannosaurus for size, tree frogs to control her thermal temperature, and a cuttlefish to blend in to her surroundings. However, once she escaped and was the cause of the deaths of hundreds, humans and dinosaurs included, the park was shut down after the Mosasaurus managed to devour and end the Indo's terror in Jurassic World. Now that there were no humans in sight, all of the dinosaurs were free to roam around Isla Nublar without any barbed cages around them, just like a wild animal is supposed to behave. All freedom, no borders.
However, this freedom would soon come with a heavy and terrible price.
As the lightning and rain rolled through the clouds, there was another thunderstorm raging on underground. Smoke started erupting from the tallest mountain in the middle of the island. Random earthquakes came out of nowhere, and there were a few buildings crumbling and trees toppling over due to how strong the impact was. Like all oceanic islands, Isla Nublar had a volcano, and this titanic landmark once thought to have been extinct ten thousand years ago is now waking up from its long-dormant slumber, ready to damn every single dinosaur on this island. Regardless of the conflict against the environment, the dinosaurs continued to thrive despite the consequences.
The last raptor known to exist, who went by the name of Blue due to streaks of blue gracing her body, ran through the forest, looking for prey as usual. Without her owner Owen Grady to train her, she was a solo wild hunter. Blue had to deal with losing Delta, Echo, and Charlie long after what happened to them three years ago. With her species near extinction, the Velociraptor tried looking out for small prey to sustain herself for long periods of time, at least before she too dies.
While she went hunting, she started remembering how Owen Grady used to train her. Despite being an animal, Blue knew how kind Owen was to her all those years ago. None of the other raptors received as much love as Blue did. Despite being free at last and managing to survive for three years, the last raptor didn't want to forget the feeling of being treated as if Owen had a daughter of his own. Cradled by his strong arms the moment she hatched out of her egg, Blue knew she was special in Owen's eyes. She wished she could go back to that feeling, but had been roaming for so long she even forgot his face in a short period of time. Like a dog or a cat, Blue wanted to have as much love as any pet, even if it meant sacrificing her freedom.
Many raindrops began pouring down through the leaves and branches of Isla Nublar's humungous jungle, and Blue's reptilian scales were drenched in so much water. The raptor eventually found a baby Triceratops wandering aimlessly through the jungle. The herbivorous dinosaur infant was nothing more than the size of a human torso, orphaned from its mother. Since the baby Triceratops's senses were not well-developed yet and its horns were so soft they could be cut by a strong knife easily, it provided an easy target for Blue.
Due to the fact that the infant could not see or hear well, Blue successfully ambushed it by simply lunging from her spot. The raptor's teeth sunk into the baby Triceratops, and her claws dug into its tough skin. Once the baby was killed, Blue began to eat her meal. While she was busy tearing through its flesh, the infant's blood spilled out onto the forest floor, and its aromatic scent floated into the rainy air.
As blue was halfway done with her meal, she felt a tremendous earthquake, though it was not from the volcano. It instead came in at a slow and steady rhythm, almost as if a giant was walking towards her direction. The branches snapped when a Tyrannosaurus Rex entered the area, attracted by the scent of the infant Triceratops's blood. Blue recognized the larger predator standing before her. Like the raptor, the T-rex was also the last of her kind, and the two dinosaurs both played a major role in defeating the Indominus Rex three years prior. Since then, both Blue and the T-rex had shared a mutual bond with each other.
Knowing she did not want to anger her friend, Blue grabbed the infant dinosaur's body and tossed it to the Tyrannosaurus's feet. The T-rex instantly gulfed up the baby Triceratops. The T-rex then gave out her signature roar into the thunder-packed sky, thanking the raptor for her patronage. As soon as the T-rex walked away, Blue still fly like she needed to eat something, so she decided to continue hunting to benefit herself. While the raptor roamed through the forest, she suddenly started hearing a group of humans talking from distance. Driven by curiosity, the Velociraptor ran towards the sound. As soon as the talking got closer, Blue slowed down and hid in the jungle bushes. She knew those voices did not sound friendly in their mission, so she kept her guard up as she watched.
There was a large port in the island's lagoon, and there was a group of mercenaries gathered up at the island. Each one of them was dressed in yellow raincoats due to how heavy the rain was, and they carried on their backs assault rifles and tranquilizer snipers should a dinosaur attack them. There was also a small tugboat tied to the port, with the latch open for the humans to drive truckloads of what appeared to be boxes filled with something.
"Let's go! Let's go! Move it!" one mercenary ordered, helping two others lift an empty cardboard box down to the ground near the water. Underneath the lagoon's surface was a spherical submarine, and there was a pair of scavengers collecting the last remaining bones of the Indominus Rex, whose remains had already begun to decay in the murky depths. Two claws attached to the sub lifted up from the water, revealing the only ribs remaining underwater.
"Thank God you weren't eaten by that Mosasaurus," another mercenary said to the scavengers. Before the steel door opened, the scavengers quickly put on their rainwear and weapons and helped load the ribs into the empty crate. Blue continued watching as the mercenaries carefully placed the bones inside the crate, hoping the packing peanuts and hay would cushion those ribs. After nailing the wooden lid to the crate, another mercenary went only a few feet from the group and drove in a with a forklift. The four mercenaries pushed the crate to the front of the vehicle, and the forklift carried the crate to the back of the truck. The team then carefully pushed the crate into the truck and locked the back.
"I'll get the Indo's skeleton outta here," the lead mercenary told the group. "The rest of you take the chopper." Getting inside the truck, the lead mercenary drove the truck with the crates into the tugboat. Blue watched as the other four mercenaries got near a black helicopter. One of the troops that could pilot the chopper started up the engines. As the blades rotated faster and faster before they blurred on sight, the tugboat departed from the dock and one more mercenary was about to board the helicopter.
Blue could not control her hunger anymore and ran as fast as she could towards her prey. The three mercenaries did not notice the raptor in the dark running towards them. Before the fourth soldier was about to get in the chopper, Blue's teeth snagged onto his rain jacket. The mercenary screamed in fear as he was being dragged away from his group. The other three troops tried pulling him in but to no avail. Their killer was as black as the night. The mercenary could no longer hold onto his teammates as he was dragged away. The moment the three soldiers pulled out their assault rifles, tranquilizer snipers, and flashlights, both their companion and the raptor were nowhere to be seen.
"May God have mercy on his soul," the mercenary that was piloting the helicopter spoke over his headset. Once things seemed to have calmed down and the chopper took off into the air, lightning flashed. Two of the mercenaries panicked in fear from the image of Blue running towards them revealed by the thunderstorm. The raptor quickly dived into the passenger seats and began attacking. Her hunger for human flesh seemed to have driven her crazy, and she knew they humans were going to defend.
As soon as one mercenary was ready to shoot her with his rifle, Blue bit his head whole and ripped it straight off. The second troop began firing his rifle at the raptor, but to no avail. Her scales were as tough as iron, making the raptor tough to kill as the rapid-fire bullets simply ricocheted off her. The soldier was going to pull out his tranquilizer snipers before Blue tore off his yellow rain jacket, grabbed his military wear with her teeth, and tossed him off the helicopter. As the mercenary was falling several feet into the lagoon, the Mosasaurus saw his shape from the light of the thunder. The giant aquatic beast lunged out of the water and swallowed the mercenary whole, diving face-downward afterwards.
During that time, the mercenary pilot quickly grabbed ahold of the sniper and shot a tranquilizer dart at Blue before she could attack. The raptor suddenly went limp as she tried struggling to jump out of the chopper. The darts themselves only lasted for a few seconds, meaning the pilot had to act fast. He quickly let go of the steering lever and pulled out an emergency muzzle and leash. As Blue felt the muzzle and leash slip onto her face and neck, the Mosasaurus's tail whipped out from the water, slamming into the chopper. The impact on the helicopter caused the top propeller to spin off, meaning the chopper was falling into the lagoon. Blue quickly kicked off the pilot's chest and leaped back onto the dock, landing on her side. The raptor watched as the chopper collapsed into the lagoon, with the mercenary pilot drowning in the wreckage.
The only mercenary that managed to get away looked out into the lagoon and saw the wreckage that unfolded. As the upper surface gates opened up, the captain of the ship steered it out. The only mercenary on board quickly pulled out binoculars and saw the corpses of all his men floating in the water. He then looked toward the dock and saw Blue, who was struggling to get the leash and muzzle attached to her. The mercenary then knew the raptor was the culprit. Even though the ship couldn't turn around, the soldier knew what the last raptor in existence was capable of. If she could cause that much destruction and kill four people alone in just a few minutes, then she must be worth a fortune. All that was left was to reawaken the obedience towards humans she had forgotten years ago.
But how can he and the rest of the military pull this off if Isla Nublar was running out of time…?
