Chapter 7
Following the embarrassing incident outside, Alan asked to be let in to the museum to see what was going on.
"No, no, no!!!! You mustn't go in until nightfall, it's much scarier and more dangerous and Pam comes out then."
"Bu-"
"Ah ah ah!!!!" said Frederick Stefanopolisnopolopolaspopodopolous. "Come with me to my trailer, and we can talk until nightfall. ALLLLLL 6 of us."
"I'd rather bite off my own hand-"then Patrick started gnawing on Alan's wrist "-on second thoughts forget that, let's go"
At last the day came to an end, and many bottles of milk, games of Scrabble, (usually ending in Sparky tipping the board over) and gazes from Alan to Sparky later, it began to pour with rain, and night fell.
"You know what we're missing????" said Alan. "A couple of kids for me to get lost with and spend the rest of our expedition learning that I actually love kids."
"But you hate kids." Ellie pointed out.
"I know." And he led the group out of Fred's trailer and into the grounds of the museum.
"Maybe we should get in the cars and drive around looking for escaped raptors????" said Patrick.
"What's the point????"Alan scorned. "There're only 3!!!!"
"Er, no there aren't. They've been breeding. There are now 29.5"
Strange looks.
"Spotty, who was nearly frozen to death, was released when only half of him was frozen. Now he walks rather lopsidedly."
Strange looks.
"Shut up..."
"Wait a minute, how can they breed, they're all male" Ellie said.
"No they're all female" John protested.
"Spark-EY knows Spark-EY's family. They be alllll men!!!!"
"Ha!!!! I knew they'd mate!!!! I'm always right!!!! Patrick danced.
They let him finish then carried on speaking. Fred was shaking his head.
"No, no NO!!!! They didn't mate with each other!!!! There's only one other female here."
Everyone gasped.
"They mated with...ELLIE????" John cried out.
Fred looked confused.
"Ok, there are only TWO females here..."
Everyone gathped.
"PAM!!!!"
