*The Last One Left*
Now...
I watched my two sisters jump on the Indominus' back, and begin clawing at her. I couldn't move. Blue was dead. Charlie was dead. Everyone else ran into a small shed except for Owen, who was shooting at the white dinosaur. I was still standing on the steps right outside the visitors center, trying to think.
Everything from my life flashed before my eyes. Every moment I spent with my sisters; the good, bad, sad, fun, happy times. Two of my family were gone, but I had to focus on helping Delta and Echo out of here.
I took a hesitant step forward, and could hear the little boy Gray say, "We need more teeth!" I was confused what he meant by it. Not long after, Claire ran out of the shed and sped across the street, going into the hallway we escaped from earlier today.
I turned my gaze back to the battle.
'I HATE YOU! You aren't worthy being the alpha! Owen is the true alpha!' Echo shrieked. Delta bit on the Indominus and slipped off, landing on her side.
'Why have you done this to us?!' Delta yelled.
Suddenly, the Indominus roared, and grabbed Echo. She screamed in fear.
'Let her go!' I manage to shriek. I begin running over, but Echo is thrown, crashing into a building before something engulfed her in flames. I watched her screaming in pain, and unlike Charlie, it took longer until the screams ended.
Echo was suffering. I gasped when all my breath went away. I lost someone else, and again, I didn't do anything to prevent it. I screeched. This was just too much.
Except it wasn't. Not until I turned over to my remaining sibling.
Delta stood there frightened, hope lost. She glanced over at me before mumbling, 'I'm so sorry..' and jumped back on the Indominus. She clawed and snapped with all her might, with her last strength. I actually admired how strong she was being. I couldn't even break from my trance.
Delta screeched one last time, before being bit down by the Indominus. Delta hung on her mouth, before she went motionless, and got tossed away like trash.
'Delta...' I stutter.
I stood there, hopeless. I heard thumps. But a different dinosaur's thumps. I knew exactly who it was, the only one else big enough, to cause those loud menacing thumps.
Rexy.
Soon, Claire burst back from the hallway, and fell on the floor as Rexy broke the dinosaur skeleton, and let out a loud roar. The Indominus broke away from the shed, and gazed at the new dinosaur.
'You want to die too?!' She roared. I took a step back. This battle was about to get worse.
I've never met Rexy, but I have heard her the one time I'd visited the tourist area, and she knew how to scare others into knowing who the real queen of the island was. Rexy had scars from her last battle before taking over Isla Nublar twenty years ago, as much as I knew. But, she had unfortunately been captured by the new people who opened up Jurassic World.
Maybe this time she'd lose? I hoped not, I didn't know what to do if the Indominus survived, if it lived, I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I had gotten my family killed because I lied, because I didn't do anything to prevent it. I was all talk, I never was strong, or tough, I was the weakest out of my sisters.
And yet, they had all looked up to me.
Rexy roared again, before the Indominus Rex roared back. I witness the fight, Rexy was winning, but then she failed.
"RUN!" A voice breaks through the roars. I looked over. It was Claire. The boys, Owen, and Indigo ran out of the shed, sprinting behind Claire. Rexy broke through the shed, destroying it. She had fallen, everything was lost. The entire group of people that were hiding not that far from here, would die along with the rest of us.
I failed.
Four years ago...
'Fire! Hurry up! Are you really that slow?' Blue impatiently called. I rolled my eyes, wondering what was so important she needed to show me. I had given in to sneaking my twin sister out of the raptor paddocks, when she ordered the others to cover for her. Apparently, Blue had been talking nonstop about a certain place on the island she needed to show me. I had no clue how she even knew about it.
Blue had never once left the paddock alone, and when we did leave, we never left Owen and Indigo. It had been the only thing left: curiosity, that kept me from telling on her, or just plain out leaving her in the wild.
We were one year old, and at that time, obviously, I was full of wonder. Blue and Delta were the only two I'd actually consider in ever hurting, because they behaved ruthless and aggressive, and Blue always threatened all of us.
'No, believe it or not, I'm quicker than you. I just don't want to be here.' I lied. I partially took my time because I had never been out here, but Blue thought I had.
'Sure... Well come up here! You need to see this!' She replied. I snorted and walked up the hill. It wasn't so high, now that I think about it, but back then, I was only two feet and a half tall. Everything seemed big then.
I walked over, and saw the most amazing view I've ever seen.
We were in the highest spot in the entire island, and I could see miles of ocean, the humongous long-necked dinosaurs making their way across the field, and the buildings far in the distance. I gazed everywhere surrounding me. Being all the way up here made me feel small, compared to the huge island we were in. 'Blue, how'd you find this place?'
'That's for me to know, and you to find out.' She grumbled. I sighed and took in the view. 'It's very cool up here.' I said.
'Yeah. I wanted to show you this, because it would be easier getting you here than the others. Owen must be freaking by now, but it doesn't matter.' She explained. I huffed. 'Right. It was hard enough getting you out.' I pointed out.
She glared before saying, 'Well, I'll make sure Delta, Echo, and Charlie see this, whatever it takes. They'd love it here.'
I sat on the ground, a few feet away from the cliff, enjoying the peaceful and quiet moment. Blue was definitely right. Delta, Echo, and Charlie would love this place. I would make sure to show it to them.
'No...' I mutter before stumbling on the ground. I've never felt like this before. It was worry, stress, sadness, anger, and futile all in one, but thousands of times worse. I'd let this happen, and because I was weak, I had lost my entire family. My pack was ruined, and now we were all going to die.
I hoped I died first. I couldn't stand to see any more death, and I didn't want to see Owen or Indigo die.
Anger finally overcame all my emotions, and I let it control me.
'YOU TOOK MY FAMILY AWAY FROM ME!' I got my energy back, and charged at the Indominus, leaping on her back. I had taken her by surprise, causing her to roar.
Good news, I had amazing strength, so I did some good damage. Bad news? The Indominus is a much better fighter.
I shrieked when she caught me with her jaws. I felt the sharp fangs bury into my body, it hurt like hell. But worse.
I was dying a slow painful death, but I deserved it. It was my punishment after all. I just never knew the physical pain would be this bad.
I started getting dizzy, then I was suddenly in the air for a brief moment, before crashing inside a building.
Now I couldn't move at all. I could see something lodged in my side. It was probably from breaking through the window. I didn't care at this point anymore, though. I sighed one last time before I began to give into the darkness.
But something snapped me out of it. I was slowly being dragged out of the building, I could feel the sharp fangs. Was the Indominus planning on eating me?
I let it drag me all the way out, and waited to be eaten, but it never came. There were small steps approaching, and I glimpsed who it was.
It was Blue.
