"Good Afternoon my name is Zara Young I am your Aunt's personal assistant and I will be leading you to your rooms"
"So no Aunt Claire?" Gray said softly
"Unfortunately your aunt is stuck in a meeting right now, she should be finished in a few hours"
Gray began to wipe his eyes as he hadn't really met his aunt properly, the last time she visited was when Gray was 2 years old. Zach knelt down and wiped his brother's eyes "Hey it is fine, we will see her later, okay?" Gray nodded and Zach helped him up
"Okay boys?" Zara said in her British accent "This way" The two boys followed the woman until they reached the hotel room "Your aunt has left you wrist bands so that you do not have to wait in line for any rides or attractions"
"That's cool isn't Gray?" Zach said to Gray to try and make him happier, Gray just nodded
Gray, Zach and Zara left the building and ran straight for the T-rex Kingdom, with Gray's spirits lifting up higher and higher with each attraction we visited It was nice too see him smile, it made all the pain caused by my father temporarily disappear. Zach noticed Zara turning away on her phone "Scatter!"
"Whar?"
"Scatter" without a heartbeat both boys ran for the raptor paddock and watched the trainer look after the four raptors. Luckily enough we had a bird eye's view of the enclosure as Zach managed to scurry himself to the metal stairs
"Gray hold on" he started to pant
Zach eventually caught up with is excitable brother and breathed heavily, he was about to say something but than he caught a glimpse of the raptor trainer, he was extremely good looking and hard the perfect shaped body
"Zach I need to go to the toilet"
"Uh..hu" Zach didn't even pay attention to what Gray even said and he ran to the toilet
"All right girls!" he shouted
"Go!" the 4 raptors ran away and Owen noticed that a teenage boy was staring at him and then he just collapsed, without hesitation Owen ran to the teenage boy and carried him to the office
"Kid are you alright?" He was unconscious and Owen knew what to do
1)Cool him down, luckily the air conditioning was on full blast
2)Keep him hydrated Owen went to the water fountain and grabbed the youngster a drink
3)Remove any excess clothes. Even though Owen didn't know this kid he ripped his clothes off without hesitating, but he suddenly stopped he noticed all the bruises on his body, some of them looked fairly recent, Owen was furious he wanted to punch this guy in the face
"Hey kid" Owen said softly
"What happened?"
"I could ask you the same thing"
"What do you mean?"
"uhhh the bruises"
"Oh you saw those, I can explain"
"Just who did this to you?"
"I can't tell you, he'll kill me?, I just have to protect my family, they are everything to me"
"But kid..."
"But nothing I do not want you to bring this up again okay?"
"Okay? but I am not leaving your side" the older man said
"ZACH!" "ZAAAACH!" a young boy cried from outside, Zach get dressed while Owen went outside to calm down the screaming child
"Have you seen my brother?" he wailed
"Kid calm down what does he look like he has dark brown hair 's skinny...tall"
"He is in my office"
"Why? is everything okay?"
"Yea he just got heat stroke"
Gray gasped and ran for the office door, without stopping Gray embraced his older brother and cried into his T-shirt
"It is okay I'm fine, this man helped me"
"Thank You" Gray cried as he hugged the raptor trainer "I am Gray What's your name?"
"Oh my name is Owen Grady"
"Thank you for saving my brother Mr Grady"
"Oh just call me Owen"
Zach tried to grab his brother's wrist and run in case Owen told Gray about how he got his bruises
"Okay Owen... Would you like to join Zach and I for dinner tonight at the Seafood Restaurant as I do love that type of food"
"Sure"
"What time?" he asked
"Around 7pm, is that okay?"
"Perfect"
"Come on Gray we have to go, we have to meet Aunt Claire"
"Bye Owen"
"Bye kids" he said
Owen needed to protect Zach he was getting hit for protecting his family but first he has to find out who hit him.
Meanwhile in the visitors centre Zach and Gray saw there aunt walking down the stairs "Aunt Claire!" Gray shouted as he ran and hugged his aunt.
Claire looked shocked to say the least
"Gray, Zach how are you? it's been what 4, 5 years?"
"Seven but ya know close" Zach didn't mean to be rude but he used to be really close to his Aunt, she used to visit at least twice a month and they would take about everything, more than Zach would ever talk to his parents.
"Hey I have to go but I will you see you later, what time do you go to bed? Do you go to bed at the same or different times?"
"The same"
"Okay I will see you at 9pm"
"Wait you are not coming for dinner?"
"I'm sorry sweetie not today, but tomorrow I promise"
"Well, a promise tomorrow is worth a lot less than trying today" Zach said realising that he sounded like his mother
"I will see you later as she hugged her two nephews and walked back up the stairs"
"Come on Gray, we have to get read for dinner" Zach said as his young brother sobbed into his brother's jeans
"Hey, calm down now, You do not want to see Owen with red eyes do you?"
Gray shook his head and held his brother's hand until they reached the hotel room
"Okay you should get a shower, while a call Zara to tell her that we are in the hotel room" Gray agreed and entered the bathroom
Zach rang Zara but she didn't pick up, so he just left a message
"Oh hey Zara is Zach, I just wanted to let you know that both Gray and I are safe and in the hotel room, also I would like to apologize for bailing on you and was wondering if you would like to come to dinner with Gray, Owen and I at the Seafood restaurant, I'm sorry I do not know it's name, If you could call me back that would be great okay thanks bye.
Gray exited the bathroom and saw that Zach was struggling with what clothes to wear
"You should wear the teal T-Shirt and black jeans it is casual and suggest that you are not trying to hard"
"Oh I see that you are an expert on clothes than""
"Well yeah" Okay I will put these on after the shower, oh buy the way I invited Zara for dinner and apologized for the both of us running away, is that cool?"
"Sure, the more the merrier right?"
"Right?" Zach laughed.
Zach and Gray waited for both Owen and Zara to arrive and they both went to the restaurant.
