A quick note: some of you may have noticed that this chapter was published at one point. However, after publishing it, I noticed I had forgotten a scene I intended to include in it, so I had to go back and fix it by adding it in. With that said, please enjoy!

Flashback

The Loud sisters had all set out on the boats with their dinosaurs to save the brother they hold dear, but before they could reach him, military jets coming from an unknown source bombed the boats with missiles, with the fate of some of these characters still ambiguous. However, when the boats were obliterated into ash, one of the dinosaurs was able to jump off in time to save himself. This particular dinosaur was Zeb the Giganotosaurus, the theropod that had a bond with Lori Loud, the eldest Loud sibling. When he jumped off into the water, he immediately checked to see if he could find Lori anywhere. As luck would have it, right in front of his eyesight, an unconscious Lori fell into the water. Rushing to save her, Zeb picked her up in his jaw and swam to the nearest island within sight. With his owner in his jaw, Zeb made sure he held her carefully, exerting minimal jaw force on her body, similar to how a parental theropod would carry its babies.

Once the Giganotosaurus got to the island, it still carried Lori in its mouth as it walked through the jungle of this undiscovered place. Just like the other islands, there were dinosaurs on this island as well, and all of them made way for the apex predator walking in their path. Just like Rexy with Lincoln, Zeb cared not for these dinosaurs he could easily make meals out of. All he cared about right now was making sure Lori was safe. It had started to rain, but once Zeb was deep enough into the forest where there were enough shrubs to shield them from the rain, he carefully placed Lori down on the ground. After he did, he started nudging her body with his snout, hoping by some miracle she would wake up. Unfortunately, Lori did not budge. Worrying more and more, Zeb gave her a sniff and listened to check if she had a pulse and was breathing. Thankfully, she was still alive, but the shock from the missile bombardment caused her to fall unconscious. Knowing that she would not wake up anytime soon, all Zeb could do was protect his defenseless owner throughout the rainy night. Using a large leaf from a tree nearby, he placed it over her before laying down himself, placing his head next to hers and curling his tail around her. Because of their bond, Zeb promised himself that he would keep Lori safe, no matter what the cost may be.

Present Day

As you already know from the previous installment of this series, Lucy and her Pteranodon, Petry had arrived on the scene, and Lucy gave Lori mouth-to-mouth to bring her back. Shortly after, Lori had tasked Zeb with hunting for food, hopefully providing enough for all of them to get through the day.

In a large field, Zeb took notice to a group of Nasutoceratops drinking from a stream of water. While both Lori and Lucy (and the rest of the Louds for that matter) found the sight of a carnivorous dinosaur brutally tearing through the flesh of a defenseless herbivore disgusting, and even sad to a degree, they all knew it was the natural circle of life for the dinosaurs. It was survival of the fittest when it came to these formerly extinct creatures, not to mention the fact that they were now relying on this kill to provide them food for the day as well. The Giganotosaurus emerged from the jungle to ease his way up to the Nasutoceratops, who were still unaware of his presence. However, what Zeb did not know was that he, himself was being stalked as well. That's right, another apex predator close to his size was peeking through the bushes, still unseen by anyone. This dinosaur was a male Tarbosaurus, a dinosaur that, if not carefully examined properly, could be mistaken for a Tyrannosaurus. The key difference between these two dinosaurs was that the Tarbosaurus' lacrimal had a convex shape while T. Rex's was concave. The Tarbosaurus, was no longer stalking the Nasutoceratops, it was stalking the Giganotosaurus, for he was not about to let this other dinosaur rob him of a good meal.

Zeb carefully approached closer to the thirsty herbivores, but before he could attack, the Tarbosaurus came lunging out of the forest and bit Zeb right in his neck! Zeb briefly roared in pain, but the Giganotosaurus was able to maintain his ground, and using his longer arms, he was able to scratch the Tarbosaurus hard enough for him to release his grip around his neck. The ruckus of these two was enough to drive the Nasutoceratops away, but both the Giganotosaurus and the Tarbosaurus did not care. The situation now became a dispute between two apex predators. Regaining their footing, the two theropods circled each other as they growled ferociously at each other. Then, the two dinosaurs rushed towards each other and headbutted each other. The Tarbosaurus then gripped its jaw around Zeb again, this time much harder than before. The strength of the bite was enough for the Tarbosaurus to swing Zeb around like a plaything. The Tarbosaurus looked like it was going to win, but before it could get this satisfaction, Petry the Pteranodon came flying in landed on the Tarbosaurus' back! Then, using his beak to peck him right in the eye, the Tarbosaurus became enraged and was now distracted by the Pterosaur. Using this to his advantage, Zeb returned his opponent's favor by biting him on the underside of his neck while using his arms to scratch him up a bit, too. With the Tarbosaurus' lungs being crushed by the Giga and distracted by the fearsome flyer, Zeb was able to exert enough bite force to where he was able to twist the Tarbosaurus' neck far enough to where it snapped, killing it instantly, where it subsequently fell to the ground. Petry landed on the Tarbosaurus' corpse and Zeb nudged it to make sure it was dead. Once it was confirmed deceased, both heroic dinosaurs let out a victorious roar, indicating that they had won this battle. Once they secured their victory, both Lori and Lucy emerged from out of the bushes.

"Oh, my gosh, Zeb, I was literally worried about you!", Lori hugged her dinosaur.

"I don't get scared that often, but I even I was worried there for a second", Lucy added. "But on the plus side, it looks like we'll have more than enough food to last us through the day", she looked at the Tarbosaurus corpse.

"I feel like dinosaur does not taste very good…", Lori cringed at the rotting corpse. "What if it gives us stomach problems?"

"We could start a fire", Lucy suggested.

"We could use some firewood from the trees around us", Lori said. "But how are we even gonna get up that high?"

Hearing this, Zeb walked over to a tree and clenched his jaw around a group branches, in which he then brought them over and dropped them down in a pile in front of the two Loud sisters.

"Good boy, Zebbie", Lori smirked as she patted her dinosaur.

On another island, one not yet mentioned, the two tomboys of the Loud family, Lynn and Lana, lay on the ground in an open field. Both of them were still unconscious from the bombing earlier. One might wonder, how did these two arrive on this island with their lives still intact? Well, if you haven't figured it out yet, that answer presented itself in the form of two iconic dinosaurs of the Louds. Cera the Triceratops sniffed and nudged Lana, hoping she would wake up while Bumpy the Ankylosaurus did the same with Lynn. Thankfully, this time, both the Loud sisters woke up, all be it in a groggy state from being unconscious for so long.

"Ugh…where are we…?", Lynn asked in a daze as she clasped her forehead.

"Ugh, beats me…", Lana said in the same tone.

Before either of them could comprehend the situation, both of their dinosaurs happily cuddled their heads in with their respective owners, thankful the ones they loved were still alive. Having received contact from their enormous, reptilian pets, it was enough to get Lynn and Lana out of their groggy moods.

"Aw, hey, Cera!", Lana smiled as she held the Triceratops' head. "How've you been, big girl?"

"Hey, Bumper car", Lynn hugged the Ankylosaurus' head. "I knew my big boy wouldn't let me go out like that".

Right when they each said this, they realized they had just become aware of the presence of each other, and when they did, their eyes lit up with joy.

"Lynn!", Lana hugged her sister.

"Lana!", Lynn did the same thing at the same time.

The two sisters couldn't help but let their tears of joy flow as they hugged each other, for they knew even if the others didn't make it, they at least had each other to hang onto.

"Wait, what even happened to us?", Lana asked.

Lynn thought for a moment. "Wait! Remember? Our boats were bombarded by missiles from military jets!"

"Oh, yeah, now I remember…", Lana said. "Do you…know if any of the others made it…?"

"Nope…", Lynn sighed as she looked on with sadness.

Before their conversation could continue, Cera and Bumpy nudged their owners, urging them to get up. They seemed rather eager for them to do so for whatever reason.

"Bumpy, what's the deal?! We were having a moment!", Lynn shouted.

"I think they wanna show us something", Lana pointed out.

"This better be good", Lynn frowned, "'cause I'm still worried about what happened to my sisters…and my brother…"

With this, Lynn and Lana both got on top of their respective dinosaurs and the two herbivores ran through the open field, in which both Loud sisters enjoyed the thrilling ride, especially while seeing all the other dinosaurs around them. These ranged from all kinds of dinos, such as Pachyrhinosaurus, Sinoceratops, and even other Triceratops and Ankylosaurs! Eventually, they arrived at their destination, where Lynn and Lana promptly got off their respective dinosaurs.

"Wow! That was awesome!", Lana shouted with joy.

"You said it, Lans!", Lynn agreed.

"Can we do that again…?", Lana asked.

Then, in front of them walked one of the largest sauropods, and therefore one of the largest dinosaurs, to ever walk the earth. This dinosaur is an iconic one, known by many, and it was none other than the mighty Brachiosaurus. This sauropod stood a whopping 80 feet tall and weighed about 47 metric tons! The dinosaur let out a roar before positioning itself on its hind legs to reach some leaves from atop a tall tree. Once the leaves were in its mouth, the Brachiosaurus returned to its normal position with all four of its feet on the ground. It then looked over at Lana and Lynn. Recognizing them as members of the Loud family, the Brachiosaurus lowered its long neck to where its head would be positioned to their level.

"Uh, hiya!", Lynn said nervously.

"What are you waiting for sis, pet her", Lana smiled as she pet the Brachiosaur's head.

Lynn pet her as well and smiled, realizing Angus was right when he said that dinosaurs were bound to be friendly towards the Louds. Once the Brachiosaurus deemed it had enough attention, it positioned its head and neck back to normal and walked onwards, accompanied by its thundering footfalls as well.

"Well, that's an experience I'll never forget", Lynn smiled.

Cera and Bumpy continued to lead the two sisters further down, where after climbing atop a hill, they saw, in the distance, there sat a large boat positioned on the water and still attached to a large docking system as well! The boat was larger than either of the boats the sisters used on their quest to save Lincoln, too, perfect for if the Louds and their dinosaurs were to ever reunite.

"Whoa! You guys found a boat?!", Lana reacted.

"Rock on!", Lynn shouted before her and Lana shared a high-five.

"Good girl…", Lana pet Cera.

On the boat, Lynn and Lana investigated the insides of the boat to see if its systems were working or if any of them were online. Bumpy and Cera remained outside on the upper deck of the vessel, as they were far too big to fit on the inside of the boat.

"Well, what do you think, Lana?", Lynn asked her sister.

"Well, I could definitely check out her oil and motor functions and make sure she's running alright, but as for any of this techy stuff, I might be able to do it, but not with out the help of a certain someone…", Lana explained.

"Let me guess, Lisa…"

"Yep, if she's still okay…", Lana couldn't help but shed some tears.

"Aw, come here, Lana…", Lynn comforted her sister. Lana started to bawl her eyes out, thinking about the fact that the siblings she holds dear could be dead as far she knows. "It's okay, Lana, let it out…", Lynn tightened her grip around her little sister.

Little did they know, however, that two of their sisters were making themselves at home elsewhere on this very same island, all be it on a different region that was pretty far away from them. These two were none other than Leni and Lisa. What made these two an ironic duo was that Leni was the second oldest Loud sibling while Lisa was the second youngest. What makes this duo interesting is that Lisa is exceptionally smart for her age, even working with professional scientists from across the globe! Leni, however, was, well, we'll just say she wasn't the sharpest tool in the box. Her intelligence could be summed up with the fact that she was still working on her ongoing project of completing a simple six-piece jigsaw puzzle.

As for these two sisters, Leni and Spike the Stegosuaurs were out looking for food while Lisa sat on a stump next to her Therizinosaurus, also known as Tickles, an ironic nickname due to his sharp claws. As for Tickles, he was actually the one who was unconscious from the explosion. Yes, he was able to save Lisa, but shortly after he got her to safety, he collapsed to the ground and fell into a long and deep slumber, a slumber he was still in. Thankfully, Spike, after saving his owner, Leni, ended going the same route as the Therizinosaurus, where both dinosaurs brought their owners to safety here. Lisa continued sitting on the stump, looking at Tickles with a sad and worries expression, hoping and praying that he would regain his consciousness. It was very rare Lisa showed emotion, but she just couldn't help it. Just as Tickles did with her, Lisa could not help but feel a strong connection to the dinosaur, one strong enough to where if he perished, there would always be that irreplaceable hole in her heart. Eventually, she got so emotional to where she kneeled down and placed her arms on the dinosaur's large, feathered head and she started to cry.

"Tickles…if you can hear me…", Lisa said through her tears. "I just want to let you know that I'm sorry…I'm sorry if I was the indirect causation of this happening to you…Just please, I need you to come back!", she began sobbing uncontrollably. Some of her tears even found themselves imbedded in Tickles' feathers.

However, while Lisa sobbed, Tickles was regaining his consciousness, evident by him opening his eyes and lifting his head up, much to Lisa's attention.

"By the name of Pythagoras…", Lisa reacted as Tickles stood on his feet and let out a roar. "Tickles…?", Lisa reached her hand out. Hearing her voice, Tickles lowered his head down to where Lisa could pet him. "I was so worried about you, my precious Ornithomimosauria", she cried with joy as she hugged his head.

Once Lisa stopped crying, she noticed something was off about her Therizinosaurus. Normally, much like other dinosaurs, his eyes were a shade of yellow with black slits as pupils. This time, his eyes were now pure white. Then, Lisa thought about when Tickles lowered his head down to her, it took him a second or two to position it exactly where he wanted it. Then, it all became clear. The explosion from the missiles had caused the Therizinosaurus to go blind! Right as Lisa and her dinosaur reunited, Leni and Spike, her Stegosaurus returned from a hunt.

"Hey, Lisa!", Leni greeted her little sister as she showed her some berries in her hands. "I found these berries that I think are really good! Here! Why don't you try one?"

Lisa picked up the berries and examined them. "Second eldest sibling…please tell me you did not eat a significant intake of these berries…", she said.

"I think I only ate a few. Why do you ask?"

"Well, if you only ate a few it should be fine, however, I would estimate that similar symptoms that come with being intoxicated are going to put themselves into effect within approximately… three minutes and fifty-four seconds".

"Wait!", Leni freaked out. "Spike ate, like, a lot of those berries. Is he going to die?!", the teen hugged her Stegosaurus.

"Fear not, second eldest sibling", Lisa said, calmly. "The species of Dinosauria are capable of a near endless intake of these fruits, so they will feel no negative side effects".

"Oh, good!", Leni sighed with relief. "Um, Lisa, is your hair always that funny…?", she asked in a drunken voice.

"And the effects are now setting in", Lisa said, referring to the berries.

"Ooooh…pretty….", Leni marveled at the spikes on Spike's back. "One of these would make for a totes good accessory on my new dress".

Wanting to grab a spike, she ended up tripping over, but Spike was able to catch her using his large neck.

"Weeeeeee!", Leni cheered. "Again, again!"

"This is going to be a long day…", Lisa rolled her eyes. "Come to think of it, the Stegosaurus is known for being one of the dumbest dinosaurs to have ever lived, and I see it has made a fitting bond with Leni, no offense to her of course". Spike then gave out an aggravated growl at Lisa. "Forgive me for my language, Spike". She leaned over to Tickles. "Sometimes, it feels like the Stegosaurus is smarter…", she whispered in her dinosaur's ear. "Here, why don't you help yourself to these berries?", she held the berries up to Tickles.

Smelling the berries in front of him, Tickles used his beak-like mouth to scarf them down. As he ate, Lisa again took notice to the fact that the Therizinosaurus was now blinded.

"Tickles, throughout my short, yet very experienced life, I have made innovation after innovation for the scientific community, and with that, I promise you this, I will find a way to cure you of your blindness", she declared in a heartfelt voice.

It's been a while since we've checked up on our two main characters, so it's about time we see what's going on on the island Lincoln and Rexy were marooned on. Last time we saw this island, an unwelcomed guest had made himself apparent, a man by the name of Kash Langford, part of Morag's science division who specialized in dinosaur mind control. Using his device, he implanted it in this island's already insubordinate Spinosaurus, whom he controlled to brutally devour and kill the hunters accompanying him. With this apex predator being large enough to rival a full-grown Tyrannosaurus Rex, Kash intended to use it to exterminate Lincoln and Rexy once and for all.

Around one of the lakes of the island, Kash mind controlled the Spinosaurus to near its head down to his level. Around them, there lay the blood of the hunters who had joined them on this expedition, or what's left of them. The remains of these people was barely recognizable, given that they had all been reduced to puddles of blood or just small chunks of flesh. The Spinosaurus had its head right in front of Kash, and Kash had a beacon of a few drops Rexy's DNA in a beacon. He allowed the Spinosaurus to sniff it, and when it did, it had now gained Rexy's DNA scent, meaning it could track the Tyrannosaur down, no matter where it may be on the island.

As for Lincoln and Rexy, Lincoln rode atop his T. Rex as she ran through a field of Edmontosaurs running from her!

"Woohoo!", Lincoln cheered as Rexy ran after the fleeing herbivores.

Rexy then let out her iconic Tyrannosaurus roar before clamping her massive jaws down on an unlucky Edmontosaurus, killing the creature instantly. The rest of the herd ran away and Lincoln jumped off of Rexy with a victorious smile on his face.

"Nice job, Rexy!", Lincoln smiled. "They don't call you the apex for nothing, do they?"

Rexy let out an agreeing growl, and feeling the undying urge to sedate her hunger, she bit into the raw meat of her victim and began eating it promptly. As she ate, however, both her and Lincoln heard a large stomping sound coming from nearby. Both of them were now on high alert, for they feared another predator was coming to claim an easy meal from Rexy. As they watched, much to their surprise, they were met with the sight of Kash emerging from the trees with the controller in his hands.

"So, you must the feather-brained former King I've heard so much about", Kash taunted Lincoln in his snotty voice.

"Um, yeah, who are you?", Lincoln asked as Rexy let out an irritated growl and took a step forward.

"The name's Kash", he introduced himself. "I specialize in manipulating dinosaurs' minds, as you're about to see right here…"

Right when he said this, the Spinosaurus revealed itself from the forest and stood next to Kash, just as Rexy did with Lincoln.

"Now, my new pet…turn Lincoln here into the pulp that he is!", Kash yelled as he pressed some buttons on his controller.

Being forced to obey the commands implanted in his mind, the Spinosaurus ran towards Lincoln with its jaw open! Before it could get ahold of him, Rexy intercepted by ramming her head right into the Spinosaurus'! The Spinosaurus, regaining its ground, began attacking Rexy, both by trying to bite her and use its much larger arms to claw her. Lincoln, wanting to stay away from the two carnivores fighting, took some steps back. As he did, he noticed Kash had some sort of tablet-like device he was using while the Spinosaurus fought. Connecting the dots, Lincoln determined that Kash was using this device as a controller to use the Spinosaurus!

"I've just gotta get that controller away from him!", Lincoln said to himself.

As much as the Loud boy believed in Rexy's fighting capabilities and knew her as the apex of the dinosaur kingdom, he also knew that the Spinosaurus had a lot of advantages going for it, such as overall larger size and much larger and useable arms. Lincoln ran over to Kash, and with the older man being too distracted, looking at his screen, Lincoln got the drop on him by pinning him down on the ground and mercilessly punching him!

"Agh, you little brat!", Kash exclaimed. "I never knew a little boy could be this violent!"

"That's only because you were using violence in the first place!", Lincoln retorted. "You don't have to this! You don't have to serve Morag! We can team up and take her down together!"

"Fuck off!", Kash yelled as he punched Lincoln in the face before regaining control of the Spino, causing it to inflict more pain onto Rexy. "Morag and I share the same sentiment! I hate dinos! And I hate you Louds, too!", he kept punching Lincoln.

As Kash kept beating Lincoln up, the Spinosaurus seemed to be proving victorious against Rexy. Eventually, Rexy had had enough and fell to the ground, and the Spinosaurus placed its foot over her body and prepared to initiate the kill. Kash, controlling it, stood in front of a beaten Lincoln, and laughed evilly as Rexy was about to die. With both heroes pinned down, Rexy made an effort to make eye contact with Lincoln as it looked like this could be their final moments. Lincoln, realizing that the only friend he had right now was on the verge of death, became enraged, causing him to rise back up and run over to Kash! When he reached him, Lincoln kicked him right in his crotch, causing Kash to fall to the ground in pain.

"Ow, damn you, brat!", Kash yelled as he fell while dropping the remote.

Then, Lincoln took the remote and threw it to the ground as hard as he could, causing the screen on it to crack! The Loud boy screamed as he stomped his foot repeatedly on the controller, eventually destroying it. With the mind implant in the Spinosaurus' head malfunctioning, the dinosaurs started to freak out as its head was in immense pain. As it kept roaring in pain, the device in its head fell to the ground, where the Spino regained its senses shortly after. Noticing the implant used to control it was now on the ground, it stomped on it, crushing it into mere fragments of metal!

"You little brat!", Kash yelled as he drove the tip of a dagger through the back of Lincoln's shoulder.

"Aaaaah!", Lincoln yelled in pain as he fell to the ground.

"Just for that, I'll make sure Morag can put your head on a wall!", Kash declared while raising his dagger up to deliver the final blow.

The Spinosaurus caught onto this, and while he had a deep resentment towards the true King, he hated Kash for attempting to control him like that. Before Kash could kill Lincoln, the Spinosaurus ran over and bit into Kash with its long jaw! It then tossed his bloody body up into the air before catching him in its mouth again, in which after only a couple bites, swallowed the man whole! Right after Kash was killed and eaten, the Spinosaurus set its eyes on Lincoln, but before it could do anything, Rexy ran in and clamped its jaw around it! Tugging her opponent away, she let go of the Spinosaurus and let out a bellowing roar at him! The Spinosaurus returned the favor, and recognizing that both her and Lincoln aided in it being freed from mind control, decided not to kill them today. With this, the dinosaur let out one more roar before walking away. It had decided to let its rivals live to see another day, but Lincoln and Rexy both knew it would be back for its revenge one day. Rexy, seeing Lincoln was hurt, sniffed the poor boy and nuzzled her snout into him.

"Yeah, I'm fine…thanks, Rexy…", Lincoln smiled weakly as he stood back up. "Aw, good girl", the T. Rex comforted her wounded owner.

Moving on by focusing back on our main villain, Morag and the rest of her crew on her ship had finally arrived on Isla Sorna, an island even larger than Isla Nublar. This island also housed many other dinosaurs, but it also contained a large laboratory equipped with a force field that kept the dinosaurs out, as well as a large paddock fit for an exceptionally large dinosaur… As Morag approached the headquarters, she took notice to all the herbivorous dinosaurs moving in herds around her. Her eyes shifted to a herd of Diplodocus, one of the largest sauropods of the Jurassic Era. As she watched them, she eyed them with a cross look, remembering how much she hates the dinosaurs.

"Such disgusting, primitive reptiles…", Morag said to herself.

The new Queen of Jurassic World entered the laboratory, where she was immediately met with her lead scientist she had spoken to over the phone before, Dr. Henry Wu, a man of Asian descent who often wore a lab coat. Once, he was one of Angus' most trusted scientists, originally helping him in colonizing the uninhabited islands with dinosaurs. However, much like Morag, he grew to hate these creatures. Unlike Morag, who hated them on account of thinking they were stupid, primitive animals who should stay in the dirt, Henry hated them out of jealousy. When he found out that the Louds were the rightful rulers of the dinosaurs and that Angus wished to introduce them to their reborn birthright, Wu made it clear that he thought him, Angus, and the other lead scientists should rule Jurassic World, since they were the dinosaurs' creators. This eventually led many under Angus' command to leave him, who were aided by Morag, obviously unknown by him until know.

"Greetings…Queen Morag", Henry bowed to the Queen.

"Ah, it does my heart to see you once again, Henry", Morag smiled as she used her hand to bring Henry off his knees.

"You informed me you have the DNA of the Tyrannosaurus Rex we need to finish our creation…", Henry said.

"Indeed…right here…", Morag showed the DNA to him.

"Excellent…speaking of good news, I have something to show to you as well…"

"And what might that be?"

"Follow me", Wu ordered as he led Morag into a room with large televisions in it, along with other people working there. "You recall how Lincoln and his Tyrannosaurus escaped from your grasp, right?"

"Yes, the last thing I need is a reminder of one of my general's failures…", Morag rolled her eyes.

"Well, with him being gone, some unwanted guests made a plan to get him back…his sisters…", Henry said as the computers all showed images of the Loud sisters while others showed digitized images of the species of the dinosaurs they were bonded with, "along with their pets…", he referred to the dinosaurs.

"Forgive me for my growing annoyance…but how is this, in any way, good news?!", Morag yelled.

"Well, I had gotten word of this, thanks to one of our scouts", Henry answered. "And using a coordinated military attack, I ensured they would not live to see their beloved brother again…", he said with confidence as the television played footage of the military jets bombing the boats the sisters and their dinosaurs were on.

"Oh, hazzah!", Morag jumped with joy. "Those wretched Loud sisters are dead! This will make our job much easier".

"Speaking of our job, my subordinates have most likely implanted the Tyrannosaur DNA by now, and I'm sure you'd like to see the results…"

"Ah, yes, the Indominus Rex…"

With Morag wanting to behold her long-awaited creation, Henry Wu led her into the main laboratory, where a singular egg was placed in an incubator. As they walked, Henry continued to speak to Morag on the advancements he made.

"Now, I must warn you, even with this creature obtaining your imprint, it is known to be more volatile and dangerous than any other dinosaur known to man, and it is extremely possible it could turn on its master", Henry lectured.

"Your point?", Morag asked with an edge.

"Thanks mostly to the work of Kash and his team, we were able to craft a scepter that will automatically link with the brain of the Indominus".

"Speaking of Kash, that fool never reported back to me. I suspect he was killed by Lincoln and his Tyrannosaurus, or some other random dinosaur for all I care".

"No matter. Once the Indominus Rex is fully grown, even a fully grown T. Rex would be considered dwarfed compared to her. Speaking of which, the time has come".

After he said this, the incubator opened, and the large egg started to hatch. Clawing out of the shell, all that was seen in the egg at first was a part of the creature's face, with pale white scales and an evil-looking red eye.

"Yes…come on out, my new weapon of destruction…", Morag smirked as she stood right in front of the hatching egg.

Eventually, the infant Indominus Rex broke out of the egg and Morag placed her hand on it, resulting in her data imprint being planted on her, creating a bond between the two. But keep in mind what Henry said before. Both him and the other scientists believed that this hybrid dinosaur could turn on its master unless forcefully controlled.

"My own Indominus Rex…I will relish using you to destroy the remaining Louds and drive the dinosaurs back into extinction where they belong…", Morag said as she pet the baby Indominus.

"Now, recall what I said about the Indominus needing to be controlled so it does not turn on you?", Henry Wu asked.

"Ah, yes, the scepter you mentioned. Give it to me!", Morag commanded.

"Here you go", one of the scientists said as him and another handed him the scepter.

The scepter was a primitive, yet also, fancy stick with some sort of gem or stone crafted atop it. The stone was red, matching the color of the eyes of the Indominus Rex.

"This stone in this scepter was crafted to link with the mind of the Indominus Rex. Both it and the Indominus contain DNA of a variety of creatures to make it the ultimate controllable, killing machine", Wu said. "As you know, these DNA traits range from a majority of Tyrannosaurus Rex and Velociraptor. But these traits have been combined with other creatures as well, such as Giganotosaurus, Majungasaurus, Rugops, Carnotaurus, cuttlefish for camouflage, tree frog for thermoregulation, and pit viper for infrared vision".

"Excellent…", Morag smirked as she grabbed the scepter. Using it on the Indominus, both the stone and the dinosaur's eyes glowed, and with Morag now controlling it, she used the baby Indominus to attack one of the scientists in the lab!

The Indominus went straight for the head of the man, resulting in a brutal, bloody mess as the poor man's face was mutilated as he screamed in agonizing pain! During the carnage, Henry Wu and the other scientists could not help but look on in fear as Morag gave an evil smile. Once the man was killed by the Indominus Rex, Morag ceased her controlling of the beast. Even though the Indominus was mind controlled, it still had a bond with Morag, causing it to lovingly rub itself against her leg.

"Aw, such a good dinosaur…", Morag smiled. "You will be my key to victory in becoming the one, true Queen of Jurassic World! Ahahahahahahahahaha!"

Later, it was now nighttime, back with our main characters, and Lincoln was able to start a fire with a large piece of the leg of the Edmontosaurus roasting over it. Lincoln sat in front of the fire as Rexy laid behind him, already full enough after eating the rest of the animal. Eventually, the leg piece had roasted enough, and even though he was hungry, Lincoln was extremely nervous about eating dinosaur for the first time.

"Well, here goes nothing…", Lincoln gulped. He then bit into the meat and as he chewed it, he thought about how the cooked dinosaur tasted. After he swallowed, he couldn't help but smile, as he found out that it tasted much better than he was expecting! "Wow, that's actually pretty good!", he said before chowing down on the rest of the meat.

Once Lincoln finished his meal, he was left satisfied with it. However, he started to think about what could have been going on with the rest of his family.

"Rexy, do you think the others are okay?", Lincoln couldn't help but ask.

In response, Rexy let out a small, comforting growl, indicating she had some faith they were okay.

"Yeah, I bet they are. They probably don't even miss me", Lincoln looked down with shame, remembering how he was never as special and well-known as his sisters.

Rexy let out a small roar, one with a rather disagreeing tone. This showed that she disagreed with the notion that Lincoln's sisters cared about his as little as he thought.

"I sure hope you're right… You know, it would be nice if I could understand you, but unfortunately…I don't speak dinosaur…", he yawned as he cradled himself on the ground, next to Rexy.

Rexy, wanting to provide comfort, placed her tail around him and Lincoln was already starting to drift off to sleep.

"Goodnight, Rexy…", Lincoln yawned again.

Rexy let out a soothing growling noise.

With the Loud siblings scattered, it still remains unknown when or if they will reunite, or if the treacherous Morag will ever get her comeuppance from Lincoln. There was one thing that was for sure, though, despite what Lincoln might think, his sisters loved him far more than he could ever imagine. Sure, while in Royal Woods, he never got to be special like them, but that never changed that he was their brother, and that alone made him the most special thing in the world to them, and as seen back in Jurassic World, against the unknown odds Morag has stopped against them, they would not rest at anything to save the brother they love.
