Chapter 4: It's Electrifying!


The next morning, they were off. Tim had told the two teenagers about how Lex was sneezed on, Isaiah laughed with him while Audrey helped Lex get the gross stuff off. They also discovered that life, did find a way, they found already hatched eggs and little dinosaur feet in a nest.

Lex and Tim were walking with Alan as Audrey and Isaiah were a little behind them, Audrey was still hurt from the tree incident so she was leaning a little against Isaiah, who didn't seem to mind one but, actually, he was smiling.

Alan on the other hand was getting just a little annoyed with the kids whining. "Just keep going, guys, the visitors center is just about a mile over that rise."

"What rise?" Audrey mumbled as she yawned.

Isaiah smirked, as Alan rolled his eyes. "Just…"

He stopped when he saw a bunch of dinosaurs 'stampeding'. The others stopped to as they watched it.

"What is that?" Alan asked, "Tim. Tim, can you tell me what they are?"

Audrey looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Don't you already know what they are?"

"Shhh!" Alan hushed her.

"Gr- Ga, uh. Uh, gala-" Tim snapped his fingers as he tried to remember.

"Please take your time." Isaiah said sarcastically as he put Audrey onto his back. Audrey didn't know why, but she held on to him anyway.

"Ah! Gallimimus." Tim finally got it.

"Are, are those, um, meat-eating?" Lex stuttered as she asked, "Um, meat-asaurusses?"

Audrey answered. "Yeah but only eat other dinosaur's eggs or little critters."

Alan walked closer to take a better look; he began mumbling, oblivious to them coming towards them. "Just like a flock of birds evading a predator."

"Predator." Isaiah and Audrey say in unison.

"That, d-doesn't sound good." Lex stuttered.

The kids started backing away as Tim muttered. "They're, uh (laughs) they're flocking this way."

After that said, everyone began running right back from where they came from. All four (since Audrey was on Isaiah's back) headed over to the fallen tree, dodging the Gallimimus as they did the same, Jumping over the log, they leaned against it, and watched as the gallimimus flew over them. Audrey got off of Isaiah so that they could go under the log and watched the 'flock' from behind it.

What they didn't expect however, to see the T-rex coming from the trees. All five ducked in cover as it grabbed one of the gallimimus, ripping and tearing it like a dog with a tug of war rope. They watched it as it ate.

Everyone was wide eyed in shock, Tim on the other hand, was watching in awe, which freaked Audrey out a bit.

"I wanna go now." Lex whispered frightened.

"Look how it eats." Alan said fascinated.

"Please." Audrey pleaded.

"I bet you never look at birds the same way again." Isaiah mumbled.

"Yes." Tim whispered.

"Go now." Lex said.

"Before I hurl." Audrey added.

It appears Alan had enough of it as well. "Okay, keep low and follow me."

The others but Tim did so, however, Tim was in a trance. "Look how much blood…"

"Tim." Audrey growled quietly as she came back and lifted Tim away before he could stand up straight and get the T-rex's attention.

The five managed to get away from the T- Rex without her noticing them, Audrey was alright now so she walked along side everyone else, it took Lex's whining, Audrey's smacking, and Alan's scolding to get Tim to forget about 'how much blood the gallimimus had'. Isaiah watched it in amusement before he to smack the boy's head.

The five of them came to an electrical fence, it was rather high, but looked like a good ladder so Audrey had nothing to fear… she hoped. Alan and Isaiah went up close to the fence to see if the power was still on, the others stayed behind and watched in anxiety. Alan threw a stick at the fence, nothing happened.

Alan shrugged to Isaiah. "I guess that means the power's off."

Alan walked slowly towards the fence, with his hands up going towards it. There was a tensed silent moment before Alan grabbed the fence.

"AAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!" He screamed in pain as the other screamed to, actually, Isaiah was on the ground, holding his heart.

Alan stopped screaming and looked slyly to the kids. Lex and Audrey was frowning, Tim was laughing, and Isaiah was trying to get his heart back in gear.

"That's not funny." Lex frowned.

"That was great." Tim quieted his laughter when Audrey put him in a headlock.

Alan looked over to Isaiah and chuckled. "You okay there Isaiah?"

"I just lost a couple of my years there, but other than that, I'm fine." Isaiah answered, rubbing his chest.

Audrey looked at Isaiah. Wow… how come I didn't notice all that… GAH! AUDREY FOCUS ON SURVIVING! NOT FREAKIN'N HOW HOTT YOUR SOON TO BE BOYFRIEND IS!

Alan looked back to the fence and was trying figure a way through the fence without climbing over it when they heard a roar. The kids looked back frightened. Like a flash, everyone began to climb; Isaiah was the last to start climbing.

Lex decided to have some fun. "Hey Timmy, I bet I could climb over the top, and be on the other side before you get to the top."

"What would you give me?" Tim asked.

"Respect." Audrey replied as she continued on before everyone else.

Isaiah smiled at how she was already over the top.

"Come on guys, this is not a race." Alan told them.

Audrey was already climbing down on the other side and watched the others as she reached down to the ground, she waited for the others. Alan was encouraging Lex and Tim along with Isaiah.

All of the sudden, a siren of warning came alive. Everyone's head swerved to the light as it blinked on and off as it continued the noise.

Audrey looks up to the others, Tim lost his footing.

"Uh guys, I believe this is the time when I say GO FASTER!" she shouted to them as she looked to Isaiah.

The others jumped while Isaiah and Tim were still on the fence, Isaiah was helping Tim.

"Timmy! You're gonna have to jump!" Alan shouted.

"Isaiah!" Audrey shouts.

"You crazy? I'm not gonna jump." Tim cries.

As Alan, Audrey and Lex tried to get Tim to jump, Tim was having none of that, as he kept on telling them no. Isaiah climbed up beside him.

"Tim, Tim, we'll jump together okay." Isaiah promised.

Tim looked at him for a second before nodding, Isaiah smile and grabbed Tim's hand. "Now, on the count of three."

Once again, Tim nodded as he unwrapped his arms around the fence wire, breathing deeply and slowly.

Alan walked towards the fence. "I'm coming up; I'm coming to get you!"

"It's okay Alan, we got it under control!" Isaiah shouts, he turned to Tim, "Ready?"

"Yes." Tim answered.

"Okay, on the count of three, one, two-"

The fence buzzed loudly as a loud bang, Tim and Isaiah were pushed off the fence and landed onto the ground, unmoving.

"Timmy!" Lex and Alan shouted.

"ISAIAH!" Audrey screamed as she ran towards his body.

Isaiah was utterly still, his hands were still smoking from the burns of the electricity, and Audrey tried to check for a pulse on his neck but couldn't feel any. Audrey tried shaking him, slapping, and shaking come more.

No, no! Isaiah, no, don't you dare!

"ISAIAH!"
