/ Bonding /
After I got all my bags and fetched Rex, we headed towards the airport entrance.
"Jennifer?"
I heard my name being called over the massive crowd of people as I turned around I was hugged by Lowery.
"You made it!. Nice hair!" he exclaimed as he looked down to Rex, " Hiya Rex" and petted him,"Come the ferrys about to leave soon. We can't miss it".
We ran outside to an awaiting car and headed towards the port. Lucky for us the ferry was still docked. We hurried inside and headed to the front of it.
I couldn't believe this was really happening. Months back I wouldn't think I would be working at Jurassic World, a long dream of mine.
"Once we get to the island theres no time to waste" Lowery stated.
I looked over to him, " The babies are hatching today?"
"We have two different species hatching today, but I don't know if at the same time" Lowery responded.
Soon the ferry disembarked towards Isla Nublar.
It didn't take that long to get there as my vision was set on the vast island in front of me.
"Welcome to Isla Nublar" Lowery said bumping into my shoulder.
"Pinch me I'm dreaming"
Rex got on his hind legs as he looked to the island, "welcome to your new home Rexy", I told him as I patted him on the head.
No sooner as the ferry docked, Lowery hauled us into the monorail as it moved to the center of the park. At the front of the monorail you could see the two tall doors with the name Jurassic World at the top.
I was in shock to say anything. It felt like I was in a toy store as a little child and I didn't know where to begin.
"Let's go" Lowery stated as I followed him through the park.
We arrived at the Lab while a bunch of scientists were scrambling around.
Just then a man walked up to us, "Hello . This is my sister Jennifer, she's here for the hatching."
"Hello. I'm Dr. Wu it's a pleasure to meet you"
We shook hands, "likewise", I said with a smile.
He lead the way for us into a separate room with a incubator with two eggs in it.
"These will be yours, you shall be the first person that they get to imprint on. It's like you being their mother, their protector." he explained to you, "by the way, they are both females".
"No pressure", you said with a laugh.
"We'll leave you to it", Dr. Wu said as he left with Lowery and Rex.
I kneeled down on Rex's level,"I'll see you in a bit Rexy boy." I patted his head and he was gone.
"Now, time to wait." I said out loud. I found a chair, sat down and started to play Candy Crush.
About 20 minutes or so passed before I heard a slight tap. I looked up and noticed the eggs were shaking a bit. The taps were getting constant so I knew it was time. I quickly ran over to get a pair of gloves and returned back to the incubator.
The eggs started to crack a bit and soon I saw a little snout from one of the eggs.
"Hello, little girl." you cooed at her while trying to help her out a little.
You peeled back the shell and no later than that, she was free.
To my amazement, she was a Apatosaurus.
Her little eyes glimmered as she looked up to me, she walked closer and bumped her little snout on the palm of my hand.
"Okay, you're set. Now it's your sister's turn".
Finally, both of the Apatosaurus babies were out of their shell.
They were a bit clumsy with their walking but all in all they looked healthy.
"Now, what should I name you girlies?"
They looked up at me in sync with each other.
"How about Ella and Luna"
They made a low rumble, "You girls like that?"
"Welcome to Jurassic World".
