A/N: Life is getting busier… Still, the story must go on. So here's the next chapter. I apologize in advance for the shortness of this chapter compared to the other chapters.

Disclaimer: I do not own Jurassic World or anything about it. I do love dinosaurs though.


RING RING RING

"Ugh…" Owen turned over on his bed.

RING RING RING

"Shut up stupid phone." Owen mumbled sleepily.

RING RING RING

"Damn it," Owen reached over and picked up the phone. "What?!"

"We have a situation, sir." An unfamiliar voice said.

"Seriously?" Owen checked the clock. "It's not even 6 A.M. I'm not on the clock till 9 A.M. 8 A.M. if I feel like coming in on time."

"We know that sir," The voice said. "But we have a situation."

"Call Claire then." Owen snapped back tiredly.

"The Velociraptors escaped!" The voice said hurriedly.

"I-I'm sorry," Owen responded slowly. "It's really early in the morning. I'm like, really tired right now. Could you repeat that for me please?"

"The velociraptors have escaped."

"Huh." Owen said before hanging up abruptly.

After a moment, Owen jumped out of bed and started to put on his clothes in a hurry. He grabbed his phone and some beef jerky too as well as some other items just in case. Once he was set, he ran outside to his bike and started to ride towards the main research building. Along the way he kept looking around to see if anything was out of the ordinary. Fortunately, there were no sirens or fires so things couldn't be that bad. But if they didn't find the Velociraptors soon, things would definitely get really bad really fast.

Before long he finally got to the building. He had barely stopped before turning off his bike and jumping off. He didn't even bother to lock it up or push it out of sight like he usually did. There wasn't any time to waste though. Every minute the Velociraptors were out of their area was another minute someone else would be closer to death. People jumped out of the way as they saw him running towards them. Finally he reached the Control Room where Vic Hoskins and Claire Dearing were waiting for him.

"Where have you been?" Claire demanded, looking as if she had been ready for hours, not even a hair out of place.

"In bed, like most people are at 5 A.M." Owen drawled out as he casually checked out who was in the room.

A few people tried not to snicker at his response. Those that failed were quickly silenced when Claire glared at them.

"As I'm sure you've heard, we have a Velociraptor breakout on our hands." Vic said.

Owen glanced at him. "I've heard. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't your guys in charge of guarding them?"

Now Vic looked a bit sheepish, though for some reason he seemed happy too.

'Strange.' Owen thought.

"They were, and…" Vic trailed off before turning around to type something into the computer. "Well, just see for yourself."

Owen stared at the large monitor as the security footage started to play. It showed two guards standing outside of the door, and then it started to fast forward as Vic held down a button. Then after what appeared to a few hours both guards turned to look at the door. The fast forwarding stopped. They looked at each other in confusion. Then they both looked at the door again. Vic pushed another button and the volume turned up. Owen could suddenly hear knocking sounds in the video footage.

'Oh…' Owen thought dazedly. Outwardly though, he kept his cool. Honestly, he had figured they would figure that out. Although he would have never thought it would happen this soon. Their jumping abilities must have been more advanced than he thought.

"Did someone go in there earlier?" Guard Dumb (As Owen had now decided to call him) asked the other.

"I don't think so." Guard Dumber (As Owen had now decided to call him) replied. "But there must be since they're knocking now."

Owen couldn't help but shake his head. Around him, a few other workers were doing the same.

"Well open the door!" Guard Dumb said.

"Why me?" Guard Dumber asked.

"Because you're on the side with the door handle." Guard Dumb responded.

Guard Dumber nodded in understanding. Then, just as he was about to open the door, he turned to look at his partner with indignation. "Wait, but I'm always on this side."

"Yes." Guard Dumb agreed.

"But why?" Guard Dumber questioned. "That means I'm always going to be opening the door. That's not fair!"

"Well it's how it has always been," Guard Dumb said. "We can't change things now."

"Well why not?" Guard Dumber inquired. "We could at least take turns."

"You had no complaints about this arrangement before." Guard Dumb sniffed.

"Well of course not," Guard Dumber said. "Before I wan't aware that I had the short end of this arrangement."

"Seriously?" Owen asked Vic.

Vic shrugged. "Do you know how many people are willing to guard carnivorous dinosaurs? Not a lot I tell you. Not a lot."

"Well I'm used to this side now," Guard Dumb said. "I don't want to change."

"Well I do." Guard Dumber stated.

"Then take it up with Mr. Hoskins." Guard Dumb ground out.

"Maybe I will." Guard Dumber retorted.

"Fine." Guard Dumb said.

"Fine." Guard Dumber said.

"Fire them immediately." Claire told Vic.

"I already have." Vic replied.

Owen didn't pay either of them any mind. He was looking for the time stamp on the video. For some reason, it was missing. All security footage always had a time stamp attached. The fact that this one didn't was strange. But then again, with Vic being the head of security, things were always seemingly strange. The problem was figuring out why. He looked back at the video. They were still arguing about the standing arrangement. Now they were playing rock-paper-scissors. But what caught his eye was a guard's watch. Guard Dumber was flailing his arms around as he talked to Guard Dumb. Owen narrowed his eyes to try to read what it said.

3:36 A.M.

Owen pulled out his phone to check the time of the call.

5:23 A.M.

"Something wrong, Owen?" Vic asked after seeing that Owen had stopped paying attention to the tape.

"Oh nothing," Owen said as he pocketed his phone. "Just wondering how long this is going to take."

"I was wondering the same, Mr. Hoskins." Claire added.

"We're at the end." Vic stated.

"Fine," Guard Dumber said. "We can keep the standing arrangements. But next time, you'll open it."

"Deal." Guard Dumb said, although he was crossing his fingers behind his back as he said this.

"You know," Lowery chimed in. "If they're fired from guard duty, maybe we could hire them to do stand-up comedy in another part of the park. They're pretty funny."

Everyone in the room looked at him incredulously.

"Or…" Lowery slowly added. "We could just kick them off the island Survivor-style. That works too."

On the video, Guard Dumber finally opened the door. Immediately after, four small blurs ran out of the room. Both of the guards stared after them.

"I believe we're in trouble." Guard Dumber said after a moment.

"I believe you're right." Guard Dumb agreed.

Vic stopped the tape. "Next, they will argue about who gets to tell me. That will take like another 10 minutes. There's no need to see that part."

'Which means you waited about an hour and a half to call me.' Owen figured mentally.

"So where are they now?" Claire asked Vic.

"We checked all the exits. Doors, windows, and the chutes. They're all shut. So the Velociraptors should still be inside. I put a lock down on the place. It only opened for Owen when he got here. We can't see them on the live security feed, so we could playback old footage to figure out where they went. That will take time to shift through though."

"Fine," Claire sat down and looked over some papers. "In that case, have all of the security guards search the building. Keep the other workers out of it, but tell them to keep their eyes peeled. No one leaves until they're back in containment."

"We're on it." Vic replied before leaving with his men. He winked at Owen as he passed by.

Owen grimaced after Vic had passed him before turning to Claire. "I'll be joining the search then."

"Fine." Claire said, not even looking up from the papers.

Owen nodded before heading to the elevator. Unfortunately, Vic was waiting for him.

"Well well," Vic drawled once the doors closed. "This sure is exciting, isn't it? To think those Velociraptors of yours have already figured out how to escape."

"I wouldn't give them too much credit," Owen retorted. "Your guards certainly helped a lot."

"Human error," Vic shrugged unapologetically. "What can you do?"

'Hire competent people.' Owen thought sardonically. "Not much, I guess."

"True," Vic agreed before laughing. "Still, this should be fun. I've never hide-and-seek with dinosaurs before."

"Well, we'll see how this goes." Owen said after the doors opened. He immediately got out.

"We already checked this floor," Vic called from the elevator. "They're definitely not here."

"Maybe not," Owen replied. "But I just want to check it out just in case."

"Suit yourself." Vic grinned as the doors closed.

"I will." Owen muttered.

Owen made his way over the Velociraptor room. Or rather, the scene of the crime. Vic may be good at security, but dinosaurs, especially Velociraptors, were a whole different story. There had to have been something that Vic had missed. And Owen was willing to bet he'd find it.

"Now let's see what we have here…" Owen said aloud as he leaned down to check for clues. There wasn't much unfortunately. Blue and the others had made a quick getaway. They were probably eager to explore the new area. If they managed to get outside, well, Owen wouldn't be surprised if no one found them until they were older and more capable at killing humans.

'Don't think that,' Owen thought. 'There's still time. Chances are slim of that happening anyways.'

Owen kept looking around. It was obvious that the Velociraptors could jump pretty high. They figured out how the door would open. Luckily, they didn't see the handle turning. So chances were that they could open doors on their own just yet. That definitely limited their options. If they weren't on this floor, according to Vic, then they must've taken the elevator or the stairs to leave. But if that were the case, they must have been seen. The elevator was impossible. They couldn't work the buttons. The stairs were blocked by a door that needed a card to open though, so unless they slipped by someone, they couldn't leave that way either. Then again, they were really fast.

Owen scratched his head in confusion. There had to be more too it. He looked at the ground again. There were extremely faint scratches on it. It was really hard to tell though; he had to lean down close to make them out.

"Got you." Owen whispered before getting up and following the direction the scratches went.


"I don't got you." Owen said out loud to himself a short time later.

Owen looked around in confusion. There were no more scratches on the ground and no signs of the Blue or the others. He had followed the tracks up a few flights of stairs, down a few hallways, and in and out of several rooms. If he didn't know any better, he'd think that they were messing with him.

"Blue!" Owen called out only to get no response. "Yeah, I figured as much."

Suddenly a quick, sharp chirp sounded in the distance.

Owen looked around. "Blue?"

Another quick, sharp chirp sounded. Then another.

"Yeah, ok." Owen quickly ran towards the direction of the chirps.

"Blue!" Owen called again once he was closer.

Owen cautiously followed the chirping, mindful that it could be a trap. He made his way over down an empty hallway. There wasn't anyone around on this floor, from what he could tell. The chirping stopped and Owen rushed forward before he lost his only lead. The sound of a door slamming shut caused him to start. He looked around to find the source of the noise. All the doors were shut in the hallway he was in, no hints there.

"Blue," Owen called out a bit quieter. "Where are you, Blue?"

A chirping sound suddenly sounded from behind him. He turned around slowly.

"Charlie," Owen breathed out in relief. "Hey, girl. I missed you."

Charlie jumped back and turned before dashing away.

"Wait!" Owen ran after her. "Come back!"

Charlie kept stopped and went under a desk.

"Charlie?" Owen ducked down to see her better. "Come out, Charlie."

Charlie stared back at him without moving.

"Hmm…" Owen hummed thoughtfully before realizing something. "Stop!"

Owen looked to his sides. Echo and Delta were walking towards him, yet they had both stopped at hearing his shout. He stood up and looked behind him, where Blue was. "There you are, Blue."

Blue glared into his eyes before turning away to look out of the window.

"Saw something you like, huh Blue?" Owen followed her gaze.

Blue crooned at him before moving closer.

Owen sat down on a chair heavily and sighed. The Velociraptors were growing up really fast. Or rather, Blue was, and she was pulling the others along with her. "I guess we have no choice."

Blue chittered at him. The others moved over to stand by her.

"You definitely need a bigger place now." Owen said. "I guess we need to prepare for that."

He leaned down to pick them up, but they instantly darted away.

"Here we go again…" Owen sighed before reluctantly getting up to chase them again. "First Frost and Gale, now you girls? You're making me wish I was still part of the Navy..."

And so the chase started once again.


EXTRA

"They had the technology to fuse dinosaurs with other dinosaurs…" Owen said aloud out of nowhere.

Barry turned to look at him. "What?"

"The scientists fused different dinosaur's DNA to make a brand new dinosaur, the Indominus Rex." Owen reiterated.

"Yes, I remember." Barry said slowly, not seeing at all where Owen was going with this line of thought.

"Well why didn't they fuse some other things though?" Owen asked. "Like dogs and dinosaurs, or cats and dinosaurs, or even bunnies and dinosaurs."

Barry was about to reply before he paused in thought. "That's… Actually a very good point."

"Right?!" Owen asked excitedly. "Think about a Triceratops with fuzzy dog fur, a Velociraptor with velvety cat fur, and an Ankylosaurus with buck teeth and floppy ears."

Barry couldn't help but nod in agreement with everything that Owen was saying.

"Why are we not funding that?" Owen bemoaned.


A/N: So no Frost and Gale in this chapter, but the Raptor Squad did wake him up like really early. It seems like they need more space. Or more food.

This chapter was short, and I'm rellly sorry about that. It's like, I have a job, volunteer work, and school. So doing this on top of all of that is a little bit much. I'll try not to ever take more than 2 weeks to update this though.

So… This is more of a breather chapter I suppose. I may throw chapters like this from time to time in order to show things that go on in Jurassic World during off hours/behind-the-scenes. I may even do some from Claire's, Lowery's, Simon's, and Vic's P.O.V. in the future (As well as other park workers). Let me know what you think of this idea in the reviews, as well as ideas for that if you have any.
