"The Queen"
Blue snapped her gaze up at the humans; some were aiming their shiny weapons at her!
Growling, she snapped her jaws, trying to make them drop their weapons. It didn't work. If anything, they tightened their grip on them. She growled louder.
Suddenly Alpha ordered, "Blue, eyes on me!"
She gazed down at him; she had nearly forgotten she had tackled him. But suddenly, a thought popped to the front of her head.
'Where is Delta?' Her voice quavered.
It has been too long since she had last seen her sister.
Delta had to get out, she had to find Alpha! Delta was thinking this to herself, over and over again. The bars didn't look very thick; maybe she could bite through them.
Slowly, she reached her head closer to the bars before clamping her jaws down on the metal.
It creaked, but wouldn't budge, but she bit down harder. She kept the pressure until she thought she couldn't do it any longer, when the bar broke in two! Her head could fit through the hole, but not the rest of her body.
That was when she regarded the gate with a keener eye.
On one side, there was a latch.
She twisted her hands in different motions, thinking if she could manipulate the object and let herself free. It was worth a shot.
Luckily, the space in between the bars was big enough for her to get her arm through.
She twisted her hand, and lifted up a lever. She pulled to the left, and with a click, the door swung outward.
She was free! She could go and find Blue and Alpha now!
This human, was protecting Blue? It was making little, make that no, sense to him.
Why would a human protect a raptor?
On his old island, humans would kill them on sight.
Then he heard Blue talking to this human.
He was her Alpha?!
That didn't make sense. How could a human be an alpha to a raptor pack?
Diablo just shook his head.
This island was unnatural.
White One gnawed on the reaming slivers of meat that remained on the bone; she had picked the carcass clean. Now she had a full stomach and was ready to go. Grumbling as she stood up, she walked off in no set direction. She just let her legs take her where they wanted to go.
While her legs did the work, she fell deep into thought. Was she ready to bring younglings into this world? Would she be a good parent? Would her young fight like her and her sister have fought? Would they even act like her?
These are a few of the things that she asked herself.
She suddenly came to when her snout bumped into a hard, cold object. It was a massive wall, close to where she had fought the Powerful One.
She studied the wall carefully; it looked strong.
Maybe there was something special inside?
She just had to know what was behind this concrete wall.
She just had to.
Claire watched as Owen pushed the raptor off of him before he stood up. How could he love such an animal? She would possibly never know.
Suddenly, out of the depths of her mind, a memory came to light.
This was Blue.
She was Owens best girl, his beta, and Claire's savior.
Not sure on why, but she strode forward towards Owen and Blue, despite the surprised gasp of the ACU team, and their warnings.
"Easy Blue," She spoke as she gently put out her hand.
The raptor flared her nostrils and took in her scent; she wasn't sure if this was good or bad. She looked at Owen for some reassurance, but he just shrugged.
Blue stopped smelling, leaned back a little, before pouncing on her.
Claire screamed in surprise.
Owen looked dumbfounded, and the ACU team stood there, not able to move. She was about to tell them to shoot it, when she felt something warm and raspy touch her face.
Was the raptor…licking her?!
Owen nearly fell over laughing at the look on Claire's face. At length, he finally said, "I guess she likes you."
Claire rolled her eyes. Sure Blue had saved her life. But why was she acting so...mushy around her?
A crinkling noise was heard as an ACU member pulled out a small packet of cookies, unaware that he was in danger of losing them. Blue bounded off of Claire, and snatched the Oreos out of the man's hand, and gobbled them all up.
"Bad Blue! That's very naughty!" Owen scolded as he came over to Blue, still munching on the stolen Oreos.
Claire just rolled her eyes as she got up. Blue was an animal that could disembowel a man with a single swipe of her toe, and yet she was stealing Oreos.
Why are the dinosaurs on this island so weird?
Something large was close, Rexy could feel it. She had sat still, listening to the vibrations of something large coming closer to her home.
What it was, she didn't know.
But she was dying to try and get wind of whatever it was. But the wind had died down; there wasn't even a breeze.
She quietly stood up, but her knees cracked loudly.
She hated being old.
Some days, she felt younger than what she was, but those days were growing fewer and farther in between.
Her knees had been bothering her for the last couple days.
Where was Hobbles?
He had taken good care of her. He cleaned her teeth when she felt that they hurt, he helped her get over her being sick. But he had gone away with the rest of the humans.
But maybe he had returned, with the others?
If he had, that would make her day!
No longer would she feel old and useless. She would regain the regal cloud about her that she had once held over so many.
The humans feared her, but they also respected her.
They were kind to her, and made sure they always applauded when she even showed even the smallest amount of her.
They loved her.
She lord of this island, no, make that queen.
She was the Queen of Isla Nublar.
