AN: Now the one thing that I always want when I read a JP book, fanfic or whatever is to get to the freaking dinosaurs! So we are heading almost straight to Sorna and the story will veer away from the film pretty quickly.


Hammond Estate, California, 6/28/1998

Harry and lex pulled into John Hammonds's estate and parked the car in the parking area to the left of the driveway.

"I still say Sirius will be furious when he learns you borrowed his car," Lex giggled.

"He should have hidden the keys better," Harry said as he opened the door of his godfather's fully restored 1966 Shelby GT350 Mustang and made his way to the other side of the car.

"I'm not complaining, this thing is beautiful," Lex gushed as Harry opened her door.

"The poor thing has been sitting in the garage for a year," Harry sighed as he held the door open and helped Lex out of the car before glancing back at the metallic blue car with white rally stripes and grinning.

"Well I will admit it was a fun ride," Lex smiled as she gently shut the door behind her.

"You should try it from the driver's seat," Harry beamed.

"Oh, I will on the way back," Lex assured him as they made their way towards the house.

"Alright, just go easy on the clutch this time," Harry shrugged.

"Is that Dr Malcolm?" Lex asked as she saw a man dressed in black stepping through the front door.

"Looks like it," Harry nodded as they crossed the circular drive and approached the front steps.

As soon as they approached the door, Mr Hammond's butler Melvin spotted them through the window and they were immediately led inside.

Harry had been shown into Mr Hammond's room while Lex was asked to go speak with her mother who was in the sitting room with Timmy.

Harry stepped into Mr Hammond's room to find him and Dr Malcolm having a heated argument about some lady named Sarah.

"Ah, Harry my boy I was hoping Alexis passed along my message," Mr Hammond said.

"Ues sir though she was not pleased with the particulars of what you wanted to speak to me about.

"Yes, she has become rather protective of you. You remember Dr Malcolm I presume?" Mr Hammond said in a jovial tone.

"I do, how are you, Dr Malcolm?" Harry asked though judging by the man's furious expression, it was an unnecessary question.

"It's just Ian as far as you're concerned and I have been better. John here decided to send my girlfriend alone to another island full of dinosaurs," Dr Malcolm answered shooting Mr Hammond a withering glare.

"She volunteered to go alone," Mr Hammond defended tiredly looking weary standing there.

"She has no idea what she's gotten herself into," Ian growled angrily.

"She's had over a year to prepare for this, and she is a professional. She's been working with apex predators for almost a decade," John said in a soothing tone.

"Why is she there, John?" Ian demanded.

"Because the island is in danger from my company. If it wasn't for Harry being in school, I would have sent the team a year ago when that little girl was attacked by that flock of Compsognathus," Mr Hammond explained.

"Lex told me that Peter Ludlow has finally managed to take control of the company from you," Harry said remembering the incident with the British family that stumbled onto the island last year.

"Yes, he finally found a way to vote me off of the board of directors. From what I gather, he wants to take animals off of the island to stock a scaled-down version of the park in a property Ingen owns in San Diego," Mr Hammnd answered looking very upset at the thought.

"I ran into the little weasel on my way here," Ian admitted.

"He's here?" Harry asked in surprise.

"He was leaving when I arrived," Ian shrugged.

"That would explain why Melvin led me on a roundabout path here," Harry muttered.

"So will you make the trip with the team?" Mr Hammond asked Harry hopefully.

"Yes, but I am bringing a friend with me," Harry said looking at the old man.

"Surely not my granddaughter?" Mr Hammond asked in alarm.

"No, Lex will not be going," Harry assured him.

"Then who?" Ian asked looking somewhat impatient.

"Hemione Granger, I went to school with her in Britain and she is s fully qualified witch," Harry replied.

"Bring her," Malcolm said looking pleased with this development.

"Why are you bringing her?" Mr Hammond asked.

"Lex said it would be a good idea, it was the only way she would let me go," Harry admitted.

"Very well, I suppose I should give you both s rough layout of the island," Mr Hammond said as he went to a computer and pulled up a map on the screen.

The island was at least three times as large as Isla Nublar and seemed to be the biggest island in the chain. The island itself was very wide at the southern end and kind of resembled a badminton birdie in shape with a head-shaped peninsula at the northern tip.

"The teams are to avoid the northern peninsula at all costs," Mr Hammond warned.

"Why?" Ian asked his eyes narrowed at the piece of land on the northern tip surrounded on three sides by ocean.

"Henry Woo raised experimental dinosaurs in a paddock isolated from the rest of the island. With any luck they are still confined to that part of the island," Mr Hammond explained.

"What kind of dinosaur?" Harry asked warily.

"Utahraptors, we bred three of them but they were still very young when you visited the park. We abandoned the island in ninety-four when Hurricane Clarissa hit and the staff had to evacuate," Mr Hammond answered.

"What is a utahrapror?" Ian asked irritably.

"Think of a velociraptor only bigger," Harry replied having studied dinosaurs extensively since his visit to Isla Nublar.

"How much bigger?" Malcolm hissed

"Ten feet tall and twenty-four feet long, they have a twelve-inch claw on their foot and from my research were highly intelligent," Harry answered.

"Why weren't they in the original park?" Malcolm exclaimed.

"Because they weren't discovered until ninety-one after all our first generation dinosaurs were already juveniles. It took us a year and a half to excavate a strand of their DNA.

"Why so long, I assumed Ingen would be all over a supersized raptor as if the regular ones weren't problem enough," Ian asked somewhat sarcastically.

"Despite what you may think, there was a lot of work involved in finding biting insects encased in amber. There were a lot of duds before we found usable samples. Then we had to compare those samples to the trace samples we've found on excavated fossils to try and narrow down the species," Hammond sighed as he took a seat on his bed looking tired.

"There is DNA in fossils?" Harry asked in surprise.

"Sometimes. At the dig sites I was funding, bones that were too badly damaged for museums were ground down to powder. We would analyze it and attempt to extract any usable DNA material. It was too deteriorated to use for the cloning process but it helped us get a rough idea of what species we had found in the amber," Mr Hammond explained.

"This is all fascinating but what's on the rest of the island?" Ian asked getting impatient again.

"Raptors are in the centre of the island around the main complex, our thermal scans show at least thirty of them concentrated there," Mr Hammond said.

"What other carnivores are we likely to run into," Harry sighed.

"Tyrannosaurus rex, Baryonyx, suchomimus, dilophosaurus, Ceratosaurus and Compsognathus. Plus the two species of raptors," Mr Hammond answered.

"Wow, that ecosystem will not last very long," Ian muttered.

"Of course it will," Mr Hammond argued.

"No, there are way too many predators in such a small area and not enough prey," Harry agreed.

"The island is thriving," Mr Hammond pointed out.

"Give it ten years," Malcolm predicted.

"The southern plains is where most of the herd animals congregate, so the team will come up the southern river inlet which flows through the Western edge of the plains" Mr Hammond pressed on ignoring Ian's comment.

"Where are the rexes?" Harry asked.

"Near the southern plains, that is their feeding grounds.

"How many are there?" Ian asked feeling his leg ache at the prospect of another run-in with a T-rex.

"There were six of them originally but we believe there are only two still alive," Hammond answered.

"Two too many then," Ian muttered.

"The Baryonyx lives in that stretch of river as well. Luckily, we only bred two of those and one was on Isla Nublar," Hammond added giving Harry a pointed look.

"I hope this one doesn't like me as much as the last one did," Harry snorted.

"Just try and keep a low profile and don't fling it out of a window and I'm sure you'll be fine," Mr Hammond advised his eyes sparkling in amusement.

"I'll try not to, what about her cousin?" Harry asked fighting a grin at the joke.

"The suchomimus are in the northwest near the northern river, they seemed content to feed mainly on fish," Mr Hammond answered.

"And the other two?" Harry asked.

"The Compsognathus are scavengers about the size of a chicken. The Ceratosaurus is a scavenger, try to avoid it if you can it's about the size of a juvenile rex," Mr Hammond answered.

"Not a problem, now are we ready to get going?" Ian asked wanting to get underway.

"Yeah, let me fill Lex in and I'll meet you at the warehouse in San Diego," Harry said as he made his way to the door.

"Harry," Mr Hammond called making Harry turn to look back at him.

"Yeah?" Harry asked curiously.

"Be careful, Alexis has become quite attached to you," Mr Hammond said a look of worry crossing his aged face.

"I will," Harry nodded before making his way out of the room.

'Lex is not to find out about these other raptors,' Harry thought to himself as he made his way to the sitting room to fill her in.

Two Hundred Miles West of Costa Rica, 6/29/1998, 09:29

Harry stood leaning on the railings of the Mar Del Plata, it was a medium-sized barge that they had hired to transport them from Costa Rica two hundred and seven miles to Isla Sorna.

The barge bounced around on the waves as it puttered its way closer to their destination. Harry had enjoyed the view of the sun rising over the ocean this morning as the boat slowly left Costa Rica behind them.

In the distance, Harry could see the sheer rock cliff of the island, its mountains rising high over the sea.

The last eighteen hours had been spent travelling and Harry already felt exhausted. They had taken a large cargo Jet to Costa Rica yesterday evening and drove their vehicles to Mal Pais where they found a barge to ferry them and their equipment to the island. They were lucky that one member of their team spoke Spanish or they would have been in deep trouble as the captain and his young son didn't speak English.

They had two others besides himself, Dr Malcom, and Hermione joining them on the excursion. A field tech by the name of Eddie Carr, who kind of got on Harry's nerves and a wildlife photographer named Nick Van Owen, who had to be part giant and was thankfully bilingual.

On the deck of the barge was a Fleetwood RV with an attached trailer that would be their living quarters as well as a field HQ/lab for the trip. They also had two Mercedes-Benz M class SUVs that were painted camouflage and decked out in lights and protective equipment and in Harry's opinion looked pretty badass.

...You're telling me we're going to the most dangerous island on earth and you brought an air rifle!" Dr Malcom exclaimed in annoyance.

"We didn't have time to file the proper permits with the Costa Rican government, you advanced my schedule by three days!" Eddie countered looking just as annoyed.

"Unbelievable," Ian muttered as he joined Harry and watched as the boat veered to the right aiming for a wide inlet.

"I doubt anyone on our team is competent with a firearm anyway," Harry said trying to cheer Malcolm up.

"Point, I never liked them much myself," Ian admitted.

"Same, too damn loud," Harry snorted as Hermione came out of the R.V looking refreshed after taking a quick nap.

"Carlos says we're almost there," Nick told them as he exited the skipper's cabin.

"Good, I never did like boats very much," Hermione admitted before crouching down to tie up the laces of her ankle boots.

Harry would admit his best friend was turning into a very pretty woman. The outfit she was wearing today emphasized that. Her short cargo tan shorts showed off her tan legs and the tight-fitting olive green button-up shirt she was riding up her flat stomach, showing the faintest hints of skin. She had her bushy hair tied up in a ponytail giving her an outdoorsy adventurous look.

Clearly Nick had noticed as he kept shooting glances at Hermione much to Harry's annoyance. She was his oldest friend and he felt a certain protectiveness towards her.

"Good, I am ready to get off of this boat, I wonder if Lex was able to calm Sirius down," Harry grinned when she had straightened back up.

"I doubt it, he was furious when Lex showed up with his car. He told me to tell you that when you got back you are grounded for the rest of your life," Hermione giggled.

"He'll get over it when he sees what I bought him for his birthday," Harry shrugged.

"Why didn't you bring him?" Ian asked.

"Because if he knew where we were going he wouldn't have let me come," Harry confessed, hating having to lie to his godfather.

"Where does he think you are?" Ian asked in amusement.

"Lex told him Harry and I are going for a trip with her grandfather to the San Diego park so Harry can apply for a job working with snakes," Hermione admitted.

"Yeah and Sirius is terrified of snakes, so he shouldn't come looking for us," Harry beamed.

"Unbelievable," Malcolm muttered as they heard Nick and Carlos carrying on a rapid conversation in Spanish.

"He is just dropping us off and Leaving," Nick said to the others when the captain went back into the cockpit to guide the barge up the river.

"How are we getting back?" Hermione asked as they began entering the mouth of the inlet.

"Carlos says he has a radio on the boat, he'll pick us up but the locals think these islands are cursed and he doesn't want to be here after dark," Nick said with a look that suggested he thought Carlos was being ridiculous.

"He could be right", Harry muttered as he looked at the high mountains on either side of the river that reminded him eerily of Isla Nublar.

"You believe in curses?" Nick asked Harry with a snort.

"Like you wouldn't believe," Hermione answered a smirk playing on her lips.

"I am calling the Fontana by the way," Harry said as he climbed into the driver's seat of the second SUV.

"The Santana is mine," Eddie called from the other end of the barge.

"I think I'll ride in the RV, I know how you drive," Hermione muttered shooting Harry a pointed look.

"Lex never has a problem with it," Harry shrugged as he wiggled the shifter around and pressed in the clutch before turning the engine over and listening to the engine purr.

"Because she's as crazy behind the wheel as you are," Hermione huffed.

Harry watched as the barge pulled as close to the bank as it could, the engine slowing it so it didn't slam into the bank and shifted the car into first gear.

"We're dropping the ramp in just a second, follow Eddie he'll lead us to our base camp on the cliffs," Ian said as he leaned in Harry's window.

"Thanks, keep an eye on Hermione for me," Harry said giving Ian a pointed look.

"You got it," Ian nodded as the ramp of the barge dropped to land noisily on the river bank.

Harry followed Eddie as he drove down the ramp and over the muddy river bank that gradually rose and transitioned into tall grass plains before they pulled onto a rutted-out dirt road. The road veered to the right quickly climbing in elevation so that Harry had a view of the entire southern plains when he looked out his driver's side window.

Even from this distance, he could make out quite a few brachiosaurs crossing the plains to the tall trees at the foot of the mountains to the north.

They drove for about twenty minutes before the ground levelled off and they approached a wide flat spot. They could see out over the island really well as they were hundreds of feet above sea level. On the ocean side of the clearing, there was a two hundred dropoff. Harry realized they were at the top of those sheer cliffs they had seen from the boat on the way in.

"Should we be this close to the edge of the cliff?" Hermione asked nervously as soon as she got out of the RV.

"As long as he sets the parking brake, the trailers will be fine," Eddie assured her.

"Clearly you've never seen The Earthling," Hermione muttered darkly.

"Alright now we can go find my girlfriend, Eddie, do you have that tracker?" Ian asked as he made his way over to Eddie's car.

"Yes, she's somewhere down by the creek on the east side of the plains," Eddie's voice carried back.

Harry jumped when the passenger door opened and Nick climbed in.

"I can't listen to those two bickering about Eddie's toys anymore," Nick said by way of greeting.

Before Harry could answer, the passenger door behind him opened and Hermione climbed in the back seat.

"Try not to kill us, Potter," Hermione sighed as Eddie's car started moving again.

"So you're a photographer?" Harry asked as they made their way down the dirt road heading back the way they had come from.

"Yeah, mostly combat photography but I have done a little wildlife footage," Nick admitted.

"If you look that way you should be able to get some pretty good shots," Harry said casually as he gestured out Nick's window.

"Holy shit!" Nick exclaimed as he looked out over the plains, three of the brachiosaurs were still lumbering towards the mountains in the distance.

"Oh my, that is amazing," Hermione said in a disbelieving tone.

"Yeah, those are the nice ones," Harry snorted.

Nick had taken a camera out of his bag, it had a really long lens and looked incredibly expensive. Harry heard him snapping off as many photos as he could before the view was blocked by the hill as they drove down the back side towards the river.

Eddie followed another road that went along the bank of a small creek coming out of the forest on the east side of the southern plains.

There was a large herd of duckbilled dinosaurs watching them nervously from a few hundred yards away, and Nick hastily took more photos until his view was obscured by brush as the road led into the thick tropical forest. They crept the vehicles down the overgrown road as long as they could until they came upon a fallen tree blocking the road.

"I guess we're walking from here," Harry sighed as he turned off the ignition.

"A little exercise never hurt anyone," Hermione huffed as she unbuckled her seatbelt.

"Alright, let's go," Nick said as quickly he switched out the film in his camera.

The three of them got out of the car and fell in behind Ian and Eddie who were using a tracking device to hone into a sensor on Dr Harding's satellite phone.

"Those are new," Harry muttered when he spotted a pair of stegosaurs walking towards them along the creek bank, the sounds of their weight making the ground shake as they lumbered their way through the thick brush, snapping limbs with the massive plates running along their spines.

The creature's heads were diamond-shaped and looked very tiny in proportion to their massive bodies. On the other end, they had four curved spikes on their long tails that looked to be at least three feet in length. Their backs had two rows of massive kite-shaped armour plates sticking into the air. The plates started small on their necks and got bigger as they travelled along the animal's spine before getting smaller along their tails.

Their back legs were significantly longer than their front, elevating their tails high in the air. The two he saw were an earthy green colour with brown speckle patterns on their sides. They stood almost twelve feet tall at their hips, though their plates elevated their height close to sixteen feet or better. Their bodies were utterly massive and they were nearly thirty feet long from nose to tail.

"Oh my god those things are enormous," Hermione exclaimed as she scooted closer to Harry as the dinosaur got nearer to the group.

"Just relax, they don't see us as big enough to be a threat to them," Harry assured her as he guided his friend out of the lumbering giant's path.

"I am going to be famous," Nick muttered as he snapped off close-up pictures of the two stegosauruses passing by.

"If we make it off the island alive," Ian pointed out as he found a backpack lying on top of a fallen moss-covered log.

"It's Sarah's," Ian exclaimed as he ran his fingers over the frayed holes in the bag.

"We can find her pretty easily," Harry said as he noticed boot tracks in the mud leading in the direction the stegosaurs just went.

"Let's go, Ian said as he unslung the bulky-looking air rifle from his back.

"How many shots are in that thing?" Harry asked curiously as the five of them followed the boot tracks.

"One," Eddie answered grimly.

"Bugger, where is Muldoon when you need him," Ian muttered.

"He had the sense to turn Mr Hammond down," Harry snorted as he saw the plates of a stegosaurus sticking up over the brush about fifty yards away.

"So why are you two here?" Eddie asked as they cautiously moved down the trail.

"We're here to protect the team if things go to pot like it did on Isla Nublar," Harry answered.

"What happened at Isla Nublar?" Nick asked as he loaded another roll of film into his camera before removing the telescopic lens.

'ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR'

"That," Harry said as the unmistakable sound of a Tyrannosaurus rex sounded from up ahead of them.

"Wh-what was that?!" Hermione demanded.

"T-rex, get off of the trail," Harry said as the stegosaurus herd began honking in alarm before the ground shook.

"Stampede," Ian bellowed as the group spread out running into the thick brush on either side of the trail they had been walking on.

Harry and Nick went to the left as the first stegosaurus tore through the forest the sound of hundreds of tons of dinosaurs charging past them a few of them much bigger than Harry saw earlier. Harry counted thirteen before he caught a glimpse of a calf about the size of a juvenile elephant being herded forward by two large adults.

'ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR'

Then Harry saw it, a T-rex that looked much bigger than the one on Isla Nublar, this one was a green colour and had white scaring on its snout. The crests on its snout were very defined. It seemed to be focused on a smaller stegosaurus. Harry watched the rex cut it off from the herd, using its larger body to block the herbivore's path.

The stegosaurus lashed out with its tails the spikes grazing the rex's flank but barely breaking the carnivore's thick skin as the rex moved, avoiding the brunt of the impact.

The rex lunged forward faster than you would think an animal that large could move and latched its massive jaws over the stegasaurus' head before biting down hard. The sickening sound of crunching bone echoed through the forest before the massive herbivore collapsed to the ground with an earth-shaking crash taking several saplings down with it as its legs and tail kicked sporadically post-mortem.

'ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR'

The T-rex let out a roar that echoed all around them, the sound so loud Harry felt the vibrations in his chest triggering something primal in Harry that made him want to take off running.

Harry hadn't noticed the sound of Nick snapping pictures beside him as he was too engrossed in watching the battle.

However, when Nick's camera made a high-pitched whirring sound as he snapped his last photo and the camera wound up its film, Harry did notice and so did the rex.

'ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRR'


AN: I will not be updating this one as fast as the first part. I have two major projects going at the moment and a third that needs a complete overhaul.
