Chapter 5

Billy hovered for a while, then pecked Alan's open eyeballs until he woke up.

"GAH?" Alan rubbed his bleeding eyes. "Where am I?"

"Oh we're not getting into that again." Billy sat on Alan's shoulder and instructed him to walk into the next room. There, a man sat slumped over a table, a bottle of whisky in his hands, groaning.

"Sorry to disturb you, old chap, but we're looking for, erm, " Billy then realised there WAS no storyline to follow anymore.

"Sparky, we want sparky!" Alan sulked.

"Ah, yes, sparky. That will do nicely. Have you seen any raptors?"

The man gulped and fell off his chair. The word 'raptor' had frightened him.

"Er…I dunno…dear Jebus is that Alan Grant?" the bedraggled man stood up, clutching his bottle to his chest. "It's me, Eddie Carr!"

"Yeah, I'm not gonna pretend I know you, we hardly spent any time together, remember? It was like, one chapter."

"Oh. Yeah. Right. Well, anyway, no one expected you to come back. Last we heard you had gone into orchid planting."

"Well, you heard wrong. Have you been here all these years?"

"Yeah, dude, King Pam wouldn't let us leave. You remember Pam?"

"Frankly, no, but I'll nod." He nodded.

"She took over the place, had a sex change, then became gay."

"So, what does that make her?"

"Him. A straight him. Spotty is her queen. He's the one on a skateboard."

"Fabulous." Said Billy. 'Can we go now?"

"No! What happened to Sparky?"

"Dunno. Humans and dinosaurs split off, 'cept Timmy and SpDotty, who went to live in Milan. I'm told they own a chain of dinosaur sex shops."

Alan nodded, completely understanding.

"I must find Sparky."
