Step One

I...don't know what to do. There he stands just a few feet away and I don't believe what my eyes tell me is real. Yaz is wide eyed, she can't believe it either. I walk over to him and stand directly in front of him. He clears his throat. "Ryan...Yasmina." He says, holding his hand out.

SLAP!

I slap him hard across the face. "Owww, what did you do that for?" He says holding his face. I pull him into a hug. He's real, I'm not dreaming, am I? "You're real, your alive...?" I break from Ben as he smiles. "I'm okay, Ryan, I'm real." I hear Yaz run over and hug Ben. He looks very surprised, I join in, wrapping my arms around both of them. "Your a hugger now, Fadoula?" Ben questions. "Still have mixed feelings about it but you're alive, so shut up about it." She says as she tightens the hug. "It's good to have you back Skits." I say as Ben smiles at the old nickname. We all break from the hug as Brooklynn and Kenji walk over. "Yeah, we have been trying to tell you but we have more pressing concerns. Darius and Sammy are leading Mitch and Tiff to Rexy." Brooklynn says. "But why?" Ben asks not knowing what I said earlier. "It's a trap. Darius and Sammy know Main Street. They can hunker down in cover as Rexy does the work for them." Everyone nods on acceptance. "Well, what are we waiting for, let's go help them." Yaz says but Kenji does bring up a point. "One problem, we will never make it to Main Street before them." But Brooklynn brings up another way. "There is one other way." Kenji looks horrified. "Down there? Don't you remember what happened last time. Not only is it super dark and creepy but we almost died. No. No go for Kenji."

The Tunnels:

"We're doing this!" Brooklynn says as Kenji groans in front of her. Kenji, Brooklynn and Yaz are on the motorbike while I ride with Ben on Bumpy. "Left." Kenji says as Brooklynn sharply turns. I'm so glad, I didn't draw the short end of the stick, Brooklynn drives like a madwoman. "Now right." Kenji exclaims as he tightens his hold on the bikes light. Suddenly we come to a stop. A maintenance gate is in the way. Kenji whimpers as he falls to the ground. Me and Ben hop off Bumpy. I hold my axe as I look behind to make sure nothing is around. "Let's take this down, Bumps." Ben says as he taps the gate. Bumpy charges and swings her massive tail. The gate stands strong. Ben is bewildered as he stares back at Bumpy. The dino tries again twice but fails. Ben gets frustrated and begins punching and kicking the gate. "Yeah, I don't think Wild Child and his Amazing Dino are going to punch through that gate." Yaz says jokingly. "Yaz...Play nice." I say as she smiles back to me. "Maybe Bumpy just needs a little pep talk to bring it down." Kenji says, really mate, your going to pep talk an Anklyosaur. Good luck.

Kenji kneels down at Bumpy's eye level. "Your not going to let a door stand in your way are you, Bumpy? You break barriers. Barriers don't break you!" He says with enthusiasm. Bumpy playfully knocks Kenji over as Ben continues to try and break the door down. "Ben, that enough, your not going be able to get through." I say, bringing Ben out of his anger. "What do we do now?" Kenji says. We are running out of options on what to do. "We need to take a detour. This tunnel isn't the only one that leads to Main Street." Everyone nods. We turn around and begin finding another way. Hang on Darius, Sammy, we are coming.

We move not even three metres before Brooklynn stops. "Why are we stopping.?" I say, she gets off the bike. "Do you hear that?" A whirring sound is heard, ok, what the fuck is that? We follow Brooklynn down a dark corridor, she stops at an access door. "If there's electricity down here, we can find a way to raise that gate." She says as she takes out a card. That's new. The door is unlocked. Cold air rushes through the doorway. Everyone, par myself, is shivering. "Whoa. It's cold enough in here to-." "Freeze flowers." Brooklynn says as she interrupts Ben. "Is that a thing people say now." He questions. "Don't worry about it buddy." I say as I pass him. We continue to walk for several minutes. The humming noise is getting louder. Brooklynn rushes to a door. "It's coming from here!" She says as she unlocks the door with the card. Inside is something that I've never seen before. It looks like a control room. "Oh snap! It must be a backup generator control room." Kenji says as he spots the power box. "We just need to find a way to raise that gate so we can get to Darius and Sammy. Start looking!" Brooklynn says as she sits in the chair.

Everyone begins to look for the power button. I walk over to the power box and rip it open. I find the generator for the power. Lift that, flick that and press down. The lights blare on, the screens show the Jurassic World logo. Everyone sighs in relief. "Ryan, you did it." Brooklynn thanks me as I hand her a salute. She begins flicking switches, soon enough they all do. The screens show security feed from all over the park. I hear tapping behind me. I look back and see Kenji furiously pressing a button. He notices my glare. He sheepishly smiles and backs off. I go to the button and slam my fist down on it. The blinking stops.

"Now where are they?" Brooklyn. Says as Yaz gasps. "You guys, look, there they are." She says as she points to a screen, showing the duo on Main Street. We begin cheering at finding our friends. I notice another screen that shows Mitch and Tiff. "Mitch and Tiff are closing in on them." I say as I kill the mood. Everyone gasps in terror. Brooklynn finds the intercom. "Darius. Sammy. Behind you!" She screams frantically. The duo don't even look like they heard her. "They can't hear us." Ben says sadly. I see Mitch and Tiff looking down at a tablet. An ACU tablet. Damn it, now they don't need Darius nor Sammy. "We have to help them." I say but we see that Mitch, Tiff, Darius and Sammy are looking down the access pathway. Something is coming. "Where is the stupid speaker button." "Wave of you can hear us." Brooklynn and Yaz try in vain to alert them. I see Rexy's tail pass by a camera. "Rexy's awake." I say as everyone gasps.

Rexy breaks into the light of the lit street. Darius and Sammy are already running for cover. Rexy roars in anger at Mitch and Tiff who only have electric rods to defend themselves. Rexy charges forward, trying to snap up one of them. Mitch tazes Rexy on the under side of her neck. Rexy groans in pain. Mitch tries to pull a large bag from Darius. Most likely his hunting rifle. Rexy snaps her jaws down on the strap as Darius let's go, Mitch however not so good. Rexy flings her head up to get the strap out of her mouth, Mitch is screaming in terror at being tossed around by the irate Tyrannosaur. Rexy throws her head up and away, throwing the bag and Mitch a good distance. She then focuses her attention on Tiff. She snaps, trying to get a meal out of these intruders. Tiff dodges and runs in terror of the Rex. Tiff helps Mitch up as they run for an overhead building. The pillars and ceiling trap the Rex's head inbetween the columns. Mitch is an inch from the Tyrannosaur teeth and jaws. He tazes Rexy for good measure. In her pain, she rocks her head up connecting with the stone ceiling. The impact almost brings it down. Tiff pulls Mitch out as they run off into the jungle. The bag is shouldered on Mitch's arm. Rexy breaks one of the columns and roars in anger at the hunters.

We, on the control room, see Rexy blocking the way out for Darius and Sammy. The duo are crouched behind a turned up table. Rexy turns and begins walking back to her lair. "That's it. Be a good girl and go back home." Brooklynn says, hoping that the Rex has had enough for one night. Before Rexy enters the access pathway, she stops and begins sniffing. She knows that someone is still close by. She turns around, walking very slowly. The fucking suspense is turning my stomach inside out. Rexy is standing above the table that Darius and Sammy are hiding around. Everyone in the room is crowded together around Brooklynn, Yaz hides herself into my chest, she can't watch, I wrap my arm around her and Kenji.

Rexy bends down and levels her eye to spot Darius and Sammy. They run and scream in terror. Rexy roars in anger. They find a small alley that is tight enough that Rexy's jaws can't fit through. "Find something to distract!" I shout to everyone in the room. We begin flicking random switches and pressing random buttons. "Fence control, power to retail shops, advertising loop...hologram?" Kenji says as I perk up. "Did you say hologram." I begin pressing the hologram button, bringing it online, I push the lever forward and twist the node while choosing the Tyrannosaur option. Meanwhile Brooklynn found the manual control light switch. She is flicking every single light on Main Street on and off. The lights distract Rexy as she begins to roar at the annoyance of the lights. I bring the lever back down, activating the hologram. I look to the camera that shows the steps of the Innovation Centre, a massive full size hologram of Rexy is shown. Rexy curious at this, walks over to the hologram.

We begin cheering in the control room. "Whoo!" "Yes." "Hologram." Ben, Brooklyn and Kenji say as Rexy roars in challenge at the supposed newcomer. I see Darius and Sammy make a break for it, running off into the jungle. In our celebration, someone must have found the intercom buttons as static is feedback. Kenji begins using the intercom. "Testing. Testing." He says as we see Darius and Sammy stop and look around for the voice. They hear us. "Party people. What...what?" He says as I shove him out of the way. "Enough from you." I say jokingly as Brooklynn takes over. "We found a back up generator and got the power back on." She says as the duo begin to wave at us, and pointing in some direction. " I can't hear you. What happened to Tiff and Mitch?" She questions as the duo begin acting out something. "I don't understand what you're trying to say. Act it out." Brooklynn says as the duo begin fake drinking. "Oh, I love this game. Tv shows? Books?" Kenji says as Darius and Sammy look confused. I slap him at the back of the head. "Dumbass." Yaz than interjects. "Uh, a circle. Dirt. They're drinking uhh...water!" We all perk up in realisation. I step in. "The watering hole." I say as Darius and Sammy give thumbs up. Darius points his fingers like a gun. "Mitch and Tiff knows where it is." I say as everyone slumps. "And they're going to kill all the dinosaurs." Yaz says as she stands next to me. We look at each other with worried expressions. Step forward once. But take two steps back.
