I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING TO DO WITH JURASSIC PARK/WORLD, ONLY MY OWN CHARACTERS AND STORYLINES

"Xue, come on!"Ahura cried as the Indominus jumped off one of the lab's tables again, running behind Ahura in a panic. Chiari had taken the injections well, but Xue was refusing to even let it near her: not out of fear, but simply to be awkward and territorial. There was no way that Xue was going to have that pointy thing in her, no matter how many times her sister said it didn't hurt, she wouldn't believe it. Ahura crouched down, picked up the Indominus Rex and began cooing at Xue to relax her, it always worked thus far. Xue nestled into the warmth, feeling entirely safe in Ahura's arms and the cooing noise she was birthed to had never failed to send her to sleep, or call her to Ahura's side. Despite wanting to stay awake to watch the mean man with a needle, Xue was lulled into a deep sleep and Ahura indicated to do the injection now with no chance of the baby waking. The injections ended up being nearly a week and half away, but Ahura couldn't understand why it took so long. Surely, their health was important? They needed all the help they could get at this age.

Once the injection was done, Ahura walked out of the room with Chiari by her side. Ahura slowed her pace so the baby could keep up and managed to unlock the car without moving Xue too much. She opened the passenger door enough for Chiari to zoom in, before putting Xue beside her sister so Ahura could get into the driver's side. Ahura decided they would all go and see the enclosure together, as they wouldn't let her out of their sight and it was only fair they had an introduction to see if they liked it.

The entire drive, Chiari decided she wanted to be on the dashboard again, being small enough to run on it and absorb the sun whilst staying out of Ahura's driving vision. Her white body shivered as the warm rays hit her body, pacing up and down (making lovely little marks from her claws) with a look of victory on her face. Reaching the large enclosure, Ahura woke Xue by blowing warm air onto her face and scooping the babies into her arms: seeing Masrani waiting for them on the top of the steps. Walking faster, Xue and Chiari looked everywhere they could from the bundled position they were in; making noise of clear disapproval at how the stairs sounded and the bumpiness that went with them. "Ahura." Simon greeted warmly. "How have they been?"

"Energetic with the bite to match." They walked into the observing platform and Ahura put the sisters down after the door was locked: watching them run around and look out of the wall of window at the forest-like area in amazement. Ahura showed Masrani the many bite and scratch marks all up her arms and hands with a dry look. "Still, I expected it from them. All baby animals are basically the same, no matter what species." She laughed. "Aside from that, they've managed to keep my furniture fairly intact except the rug, because that's their favourite eating spot, my couch is punctured but not beyond repair or coverage, Xue has a fondness for barbeque sauce and Chiari oddly likes watermelon. Don't ask how, because it's weird to explain." Masrani laughed at her expression and they walked towards the window, the babies now lightly attacking the bottom of his trousers in an experimental fashion. He seemed nervous, so Ahura cooed them away to looked at the scenery again.

"They're very curious, aren't they?"

"Aren't all babies? This is all new to them, and they want to know everything." Ahura laughed when Xue ran at the glass as fast as she could, only to bounce off it with an annoyed growl.

"Do you think they'll like it here?" Masrani asked as the crimson eyed baby tried again. "For now?"

"Will it be expanded? From what I know, they'll grow out of it by the time they're four." She told him plainly with a pointed look. "Even then, shouldn't they have somewhere else to move into? I doubt they'll do well in the same place for such a long time unless new ground is added, or they're moved."

"We'll worry about that when the time is closer. Now, please answer my initial question." Simon was happy Ahura was looking out for the Indominus babies, but worried about her safety. It was clear that – even so early on – she would put her life at risk to keep them safe. Maybe Wu was right about her being too maternal, but still, Masrani was sure Ahura would do what was right for them, and that was what mattered.

"This will be perfectly suitable. I go in through those doors, right?" She pointed to the large double doors at the side of the paddock. Masrani nodded.

"Yes. Or, if you go out of this viewing space-" He pointed to where the door was, not trusting opening it in case the Indominus babies were watching. "There's a set of stairs that leads down into the enclosure." Simon felt an odd wave of relief when she smiled, before he turned serious and stepped closer to her with firm eyes. "About your... Contribution." He started in a low tone. "Have you seen any effects yet?" She nodded slowly in response.

"They have human canines. They're more Indominus size, but they're definitely human. They have deeper thought patterns, their brains work at a faster rate and they learn. Very. Quickly." She said the last two words with a mass of emphasis as a warning. "They've learnt how to open doors when they can reach the handles. I picked Chiari on the third day to around the door handle level, ready to put her on my chest so I could open it, and she just flicked her tail down onto it: knowing force would open it. The door opened slightly, but there wasn't enough force applied. Xue was watching beside me, and managed to jump high enough to get her hands around the handle, which gave the rest of the force to open the door..." She stared back at the Indominus babies, who were now busy playing fake fighting with each other. "They were so proud of themselves and wouldn't stop making noise the whole way to the car."

"Did you reward them?" Masrani asked with worry evident in his voice, but he hid it well. If they were only three days old when they learnt to do that, he wondered what they were capable of in the future.

"Does it matter?" That was a yes. "The point is that they know how to do it. I'm getting a new door handle... See how long it takes them."

"You're encouraging this behaviour?"

"Why not?" Ahura sat on the floor as the sister ran to her side when she cooed. "What's the point of making such amazing creatures if they aren't tested? They like learning, sir, and it's only fair that they are given those opportunities. I promised I would give them as many choices as I could, and they need to learn." Her tone was firm, but had a soft under layer. She didn't want them to be deprived. "I bet you'd let Owen do it with his Raptors." She told him with a tone that reminded Masrani of a stropping child, even with the pout.

"Raptors don't have human DNA, Ahura. Mr. Grady is a very different matter."

"Is not." She grumbled, but she would go ahead with changing the handles anyway. Just little tests, that's all they were. No need for worry. "Raptors can open doors." Ahura stated a bit louder and saw the eighth richest man in the world hide a smile. For some reason, he was reminded of Hammond. Hammond always wanted the animals around him to be at their full potential, within a safe environment for the public. Hammond, in Masrani's eyes, was the perfect bland of childlike excitement, maturity and love. It wasn't a surprise about Ahura, really.

"I know Hammond adopted you when you were a child, but that gives you no reason to adopt his antics." Ahura giggled at the statement and her babies cooed in delight at hearing her laugh. She missed John, but knew he'd be proud of her. He'd want her to encourage them, as long as it was safe, but would probably disagree with the fact they were hybrids. Even so, Ahura knew he would love them both.

"Someone has to." She shrugged simply and gave a half smile. "I don't see you getting excited over new animals anymore... It's like you don't care anymore." Her faux offended tone made him smile slightly. She liked that they could joke together, but only in private time.

"You know I care, I just can't show it much anymore. You know where my heart lies with this park and it's animals." Masrani straightened his tie and rolled his shoulder: a way to silently say he was ready to leave. Ahura stood and cooed for the sisters to follow her. They got to the door – seeing it was the same handle as the one in Ahura's home, even a little lower and easier to reach to the sisters. Xue ran and jumped, pulling the handle down and Chiari stopped the small gap made from closing. Ahura pushed the door open gently so they couldn't hurt themselves, scooping them up in her arms again before shooting Masrani with the I told you look.

"True. Where's Miss. Dearing today? Meeting?" Ahura questioned as she handed Masrani the keys to her car, silently asking him to open the door. She placed the girls in the passenger seat, seeing them both get on the dashboard. If they were human, they'd be grinning. The sun was directly on the dashboard, warming them and making the babies very happy.

"Does it really matter?"

"Not really; just wanted to keep up conversation." She climbed into the driver's seat and smiled at her boss, seeing his serious face again.

"What happens if you can't handle them anymore?" How many people would ask her something like that? Ahura made a mental note to start a tally.

"I can handle them, sir." She told him with confidence. "I would happily take on more if you had them." He nodded and decided to let her go, seeing the irritation growing on the small faces of the Indominus babies. They wanted to drive around, not be stuck in one place, otherwise the dashboard got too hot. They're expression were so easy to read, it was almost like looking at a human baby, and that unnerved him. He gave another nod, and Ahura placed a hand on his arm. "Everything will be okay. I promise to alert you if I can't." With that, she began the half an hour long journey back to her home, but had to slow down when she heard a conversation.

"New ones from Site B."

"Why should I care?"

"One got away. Can't find the stupid animal."

Ahura picked up the pace again, shaking her head with a frown. Site B? What was that? She remembered John mentioning it once or twice, but she was never interested until now. Simon would know. Ahura would make sure to ask him.

Arriving home, the girls ran straight for the door, when something caught their attention. An afraid, broken cry that sounded like it came from another small Dinosaur. Hearing it as well, Ahura ran over to the neat bushes outside her home and felt tears brim in her eyes. She scooped up the tiny animal and ran inside, leaving the door open for her girls. Ahura pulled out a thick, child sized blanket and placed the tiny animal in it, loosely wrapping it before grabbing a pipette and filling it with water. The woman sat down at the table and gently placed the very tip in its mouth; dripping water in and it weakly drank all it could. Occasionally, she'd wipe its mouth and continue until all the water was done. Undoing her shirt slightly, she placed the tiny animal directly on her chest and did up her shirt up a little. She could still see it, but it was covered and would be far warmer with her hand on the outside of her shirt to stop it falling. Managing to cut off minuscule pieces of meat off the beef meant to be given to her girls, she placed the first in its mouth and saw it chew with effort. The poor thing was weak, cold and undernourished. When it was a bit stronger, Ahura would take it to the vet to be examined properly. After a good thirty minutes, all the food and water was gone, the animal had fallen asleep against her heat and the sisters wanted a look at the tiny thing, so Ahura sat down on her couch. "Be careful." She said with a strong tone, but the girls heard the crack of upset.

Xue would roll her eyes, but she focused on the small thing. Did Mother think they were stupid? They could both see how frail this animal was and they wanted to see how they could help. Looking it over, Xue took in the scent and knew this one was different, and not just in size or colouration. This one was a male. A tiny, vulnerable male... Xue gently rubbed her jaw over the baby for his comfort, seeing her sister do the same. Mother had accepted this one and was helping him; that meant he was safe. Their pack was getting bigger – as mismatched as it seemed – but they would bring this one back to health and then he would shine. They had both seen he was a carnivore and didn't mind him having their food if it meant his recovery would be swifter. They heard him give a happy, loving whine but they went even gentler... Just in case they were hurting him even in the slightest. Xue could see his ribs, as well as most of the others, and that made her very upset. They had never been that thin, and neither would this one. With Mother's help, they would bring him back to health.

Chiari, on the other hand, was furious that this had happened. She didn't blame the baby boy, oh no, she blamed whoever did this to him. Did he not have a Mother or an Alpha to feed him? He was far too young – younger than them – to be left on his own like that! It angered her that he had been left on his own. He would be fine if he had someone to feed him. There was no other illness and he was so frightened when they found him. The poor thing curled into a ball to try his best and protect himself. Fortunately, he now had them and their Mother to make him better, and that made Chiari feel much better about the situation. She agreed with Xue that he would be just fine after he puts on a bit of weight and he was welcome to share their food if it helps with recovery.

Ahura managed a small smile when the baby uncurled to rest more comfortably, making her hum a soft and warm tune whilst she gently stroked the tiny scales. The sisters stopped rubbing the baby and they both rested against her thighs: Xue on the left and Chiari on the right. They wanted to be as closer to the baby as possible in case they were needed, because that baby needed as much protection as they could manage. Managing to take out her phone, seeing the sisters acknowledge it and ignore it in favour of protecting the baby, and called Maybelle again. "Hey hon." Her voice was extremely soft as she stared down at the tiny baby. "Can you come over again? I've got a very small, sick baby. I need an incubator to keep it warm, and can you do an examination over here? You're a Vet, right?" She didn't realise how panicked her voice sounded until Maybelle gave a soft 'shh'.

"Of course I can. Be there as soon as I can, keep it close." She could hear Maybelle fussing around to grab things she would need. "Where did you find it?"

"In a bush just outside my house; the poor thing was curled up, undernourished and trembling." Ahura heard a door shut and figured Maybelle was approaching the car.

"Have you fed, watered and kept it warm?"

"Its eaten and drunk all it could manage. I'm sure it would've done more, but it was too exhausted. It has been keeping warm in my bosom, as at this moment, with two sisters not happy about it."

"About the situation?" The car was on the roads now, and Ahura heard other cars in the distance.

"No, they welcomed the baby. They seem to be upset at how it has been treated." Ahura told her friend gently as the baby reshuffled again, its head over her heart. "It's so small, May... So fragile." She heard a car pull up and the phone was hung up, Maybelle walking in with what she would need. The older woman put her things down by the couch, smiling slightly when the girls trilled at seeing the woman again after the time of absence, and Ahura unbuttoned her shirt again to let Maybelle see the tiny creature. Maybelle frowned at the amount of visible bones and gently took the baby of Ahura to pull it into herself.

"Turn on the incubator. The poor babe needs it now." She told Ahura the instructions and they followed exactly, now they had to wait for it to be okay. "Can't be in there too long, just until it stops shaking. The baby is actually a good size for its species, Ahura."

"What species is it?" Ahura asked and stroked the baby gently.

"Allosaurus." The news shocked Ahura briefly. They didn't have any of those on Isla Nublar. What was one doing over here?

"New ones from Site B."

Of course. The Allosaurus must've come from 'Site B', and Ahura pushed her rage down. How could Masrani let this happen to one of them? They weren't getting this one back; that was for sure. Over Ahura's cold, lifeless body, maybe. Maybelle brought Ahura off her thought train when she gave a short, surprised 'humph' sound. "What is it?" Ahura worried that she had found something else wrong with the baby.

"This is odd indeed. Both an Allosaurus, and a sleepy baby boy." Maybelle told her with a sweet tone, and saw the incubator was ready. "Not too long now, little darling." She put him inside and started a countdown on her phone. Ahura, on the other hand, had her mind racing on if he would survive and a name for him if he did. "He should be fine after a couple of weeks of complete attention and care. I'll be here whenever you need me to help lighten the load for you." Maybelle looked to the girls trying to see the baby boy in the incubator; seeing he was no longer shivering. "It won't be easier. You've got two energetic baby girls, and a malnourished baby boy. It'll be – Chiari, don't do that please." Chiari was gently trying to open the incubator; seeing his breathing quicken, but still managed to get it open with help from Xue. Xue took the baby gently in her jaws (like a Crocodile with her new born young) and brought him over to their bed, both girls curling around him to keep him warm. "Clever girls."

"I know." Ahura moved to be by their side, stroking them all softly the best she could. His breathing had eased, just as Maybelle's countdown finished. "I guess they knew a little better for what was best."

"I guess so." There was a laugh in Maybelle's voice as she turned the machine off. "I can't see anything else wrong with him, but give him more water in a minute, okay?" She told Ahura and took the meat down from the counter, laughing about how it was on a tray, before putting in on the carpet again after hearing two stomachs rumble. Xue blew air on the baby boy, waking him up, and he gave a tiny, defenceless squeal, only to be comforted. He was obviously surprised at the two other Dinosaurs - he didn't know what they were – but they carried him over to the food, as their Mother prepared separate water places for them. Chiari put him down and gently tore of a smaller piece of meat for the baby to eat through, whilst the girls continued to make a pile for the much smaller boy to feed off. They wanted him to get stronger, so that he would soon do this himself, but tiny steps were needed. Like Mother did for them when they were too tired from running around all day and didn't want to get the food themselves. They both knew it was more severe than simple tiredness, but the principle was the same to them.

The baby boy slowly managed to eat everything he was given, giving another weak call for Ahura again. She picked him up in a blanket and gave him water through the pipette once more, whilst the girls drank from a large bowl and kept an eye on the baby. Maybelle watched in wonder as Ahura cooed gently down at the rescued baby, and knew exactly what was going through her friend's mind. "You're keeping him, aren't you?" She questioned and got a nod, Ahura still cooing at the baby to encourage him to drink a little bit more. "I genuinely admire your courage and determination, but that is a damn lot for someone who's just starting out." Maybelle warned and was surprised when Ahura darkened.

"They aren't having him back. He's staying with me and the girls where he's safe from the ones who brought him here." She looked at her friend with pleading eyes. "Please May; don't tell anyone he's here." Tears pricked at her eyes. "They'll try and take him from where he's safe. They left him to fend for himself, and he managed to escape to try and find somewhere safer. He found it, so he stays." She looked down at the now sleeping baby as she coddled him to her chest. "They'll destroy him, May. I can't let that happen. He's done nothing wrong and the obviously don't care about what happens to him."

"As a Vet and your friend, I can say you're doing the right thing. As someone under Masrani, I will have to tell him, Ahura, you know that. He'll understand, I promise." Maybelle tried to reason, but say Ahura immediately shake her head.

"He won't understand. He's already scared I'll let the girls get out of hand; can you imagine what would happen if he was told I now have an Allosaurus in my hands?" She took a long breath. "I told him I would alert him if I felt I couldn't take it anymore and that I would happily take on more Indominus's if he had any. He doesn't, but now there's a delicate baby in my hands who needs my help and attention, and who has trusted me with his very life. I won't betray him."

"If that's how you truly feel, then I'll do my best to keep myself from informing Masrani until you're ready. I would suggest when he's healthier and you've bonded properly." Maybelle stood with her equipment and a smile. "I'll be along to check on them all later on in the week, okay? I have to make sure they are all fighting fight for the new enclosure."

"They won't be in there immediately, Maybelle. They need to be introduced slowly, otherwise they might get overrun."

"Or run off, right?" Maybelle cackled as a shoe was thrown at her and she left the house with a smile etched on her features. She wasn't worried about how Ahura would cope yet, and was proud she was doing so well, but her main concern was the Allosaurus. Not that he was feeble, because he would recover, but he may get territorial and fight the girls while they're still small enough to kill. Allosaurus reached full size in around thirteen years, from what she remembered, but she doubted it would take that long for him to be bold enough to attack one of the girls, or even Ahura. Taking a deep breath, she climbed into her car and began the drive back to the Vet building: her mind filled with how she could keep this from Masrani until it was time, because avoiding him was far from an option. As she pulled up to the building, she saw Owen Grady outside with one of her co-workers and wounds from the Raptors very evident. Still he smiled when they brought out a wooden crate with his girls inside; immediately greeting them individually and thanking the Vet, before hurrying away.

Shaking her head, she walked into the building and froze to the spot: seeing Masrani in the building. Why was he here? Hiding around the corner, she listened to the conversation. "We can't seem to find the Allosaurus anywhere. It was a feeble thing; it couldn't have gotten very far, could it?"

"You'd be surprised at how far they will go if it means fleeing from danger. If it's as feeble as you say, then it would've burned out by now, definitely, or even died. It was only a baby, wasn't it?" Head of the Vet department – Dr. Novine – told Masrani and Maybelle rolled her eyes slightly.

"Yes it was. The baby came with a sister, but she died a few hours ago. Both were weak and malnourished."

"If its sister's dead, then the likely hood is that this one is dead as well. I'm sorry, sir." The Vet walked away to tend to a bird that needed help, apparently. Simon sighed and walked towards the entrance, Maybelle making herself appeared to just be walking through as well.

"Good afternoon, sir."

"Good afternoon, Maybelle." He stopped her and saw a blood splatter on her upper thigh from the beef the girls had been eating. They were messier than usual, for the baby, and she hadn't noticed she had some on her.

"I went to check on the Indominus babies, sir. They were eating and the meat was a little bloody." Maybelle told the truth and left out where the baby was. "That's all, I promise it." Simon nodded with a tired smile.

"How are they all doing?" Despite seeing them all only hours ago, he didn't know if something had gone wrong. Maybelle gave a reassuring smile with honest eyes.

"They are all doing just fine. Ahura is very good them, and you chose her well." Simon let her continue and she let out a shaky breath. She had convinced him, but now she was worried if he would go and pay a personal visit. It was highly unlikely as he was very busy, but that tiny shred of possibility wouldn't leave her alone.

Ahura collapsed into her bed with the baby Allosaurus on the other side of the bed, Xue and Chiari curled up next to him. Maybelle had been right when she said that he was a good size, but a little underweight. She had realised that he looked so tiny because her girls were much bigger than he was. As he put on more weight, Ahura was sure he would catch up to them for now. She kissed them all gently and pulled off the covers after the girls moved her baby boy, so they then put themselves on the mattress and trilled when the covers were pulled over them: like their own little dark den safe with Mother.

As Ahura began to nod off, she felt a small body on the rest of the pillow; seeing her baby boy curled above her shoulder and the cover still over his small body. Ahura laughed lightly and ran her smallest finger over him to finally soothe him into sleep. "Reider." She decided. "You're name's Reider." After that, they all fell into a deep sleep and readied themselves for whatever was thrown their way.

Reider = "RIY-der" = fighter of the nest

The enclosure in this is not the same one as in the film. Just saying. Similar, but not the same 0^0
