Chapter 7: The Cyber-Raptors' Hunt
There they stood, trapped in a large glass raptor cage. Rory, Zach, and Scott stood in front of two terrifying dinosaurs. However, these raptors had been fused with the Cybermen and were called Cyber-Raptors. They were raptors with silver body armor and razor sharp teeth. They do not require food, but their instinct to delete is still quite strong.
"Delete. Delete." The raptors repeated with the voices of Cybermen.
"Run!" Rory shouted.
Then, Rory, Zach, and Scott turned around and ran away. They ran for the door they originally came in. If normal Cybermen had been following them, perhaps they could've gotten away. However, these were Cyber-Raptors, built for speed to catch any predator on foot. As they ran and jumped through the trees and dirt, the Cyber-Raptors remained just inches behind them.
"We have to split up!" Zach yelled.
"I'm not leaving you!" Scott yelled back.
"Zach's right." Rory said. "Raptors are pack hunters. They work as a team. If we split up these two, they'll have to hunt alone and we'll have a better chance of survival."
The three of them kept running together with the two Cyber-Raptors just behind them. As they looked forward, they saw a third Cyber-Raptor waiting for the humans to run into it and kill them. They had no choice now but to split up. If they didn't, they'd be trapped with raptors in front and behind them. So, the three humans diverged into three separate directions. Rory ran to the left. Scott ran to the right. Zach ran slightly to the left to confuse the Cyber-Raptor in front of him. Once he passed the creature, he continued running straight. The three raptors collided into each other and fell down. They each made a silent agreement to hunt down one human. So, each raptor followed each human into the jungle. The hunt had now begun.
Rory ran as fast as he could until he came upon a sight that made him stop. On one of the large trees was a door. Seeing no other means of a escape, he opened the door and found a small space big enough for a person to fit into. There was also a rake. This must have been a closet of some kind, but Rory had no time to question it. He fit himself inside and shut the door. After a few moments, he heard the Cyber-Raptor that was chasing him run straight passed it. Rory was safe for now, but the same could not be said for Zach and his dad.
Zach kept running fast as well. This reminded him of when he was running with Gray from the Indominus Rex back at Jurassic World. Except this time he was alone and the dinosaur was also an alien hybrid. He saw the door to the outside of the raptor containment area. He just had to reach it before the raptor got him. The raptor was running far behind him. Zach could see it as he turned his head back. However, he was not expecting what came next. The raptor opened its mouth and a blue laser blast fired out. Zach was able to dodge the blast as a small explosion occurred next to him. He kept running. Evidently the Silence included a Cyber laser gun inside the raptor's mouth. That was certainly new.
Zach had now reached the door. Quickly, he ran outside and slammed the door behind him. However, the raptor was too quick. It slammed into the door as Zach was shutting it. Zach now had his back pressed up against the half open door trying to shut it. But he raptor was on the other side trying to push it open. Zach had to think fast. There was no way he could hold that thing in there for long. He looked around and saw a rock the size of an American football next to his foot. Zach then knew what to do. He reached for the rock and picked it up. As he did, he let his weight off the door and allowed the Cyber-Raptor to run out and step a few feet onto the black road. Then, Zach raised the rock high. He was standing behind the alien creature. Then, he bashed the rock as hard as he could against the raptor's head. This shattered the armor and broke it. The Cyber-Raptor fell to the floor dead. Zach then decided to run back down the road and look for the others so he could get help and save his dad and Rory form the other Cyber-Raptors.
Scott ran as fast as he could through the jungle. There was an alien raptor behind him on the hunt and firing lasers. Scott was able to dodge them quite successfully, but his luck was about to run out. He ran into the wall of the glass cage. An entire wall of impenetrable glass separated him from safety. He turned around and saw the Cyber-Raptor watching him.
"Delete." The Raptor said.
Then, it fired a blue laser blast from its mouth that hit Scott directly, killing him. Zach and Gray's father was now dead. Rory now remained trapped in the large cage with two Cyber-Raptors. Zach needed to find help for him soon. It was only a matter of time before the Cyber-Raptors would find Rory.
