I am loving the reviews! To my readers BethanForever and the rest of you that review, thank you!
Jack felt his eyes open slowly as water dripped onto his forehead steadily, everything still spinning in his vision as he noticed he was laying against the dashboard of the car. Every window had been shattered as the rain continued to pour in before he turned his head over and saw Hiccup resting up against him, his face blotted with both mud and blood.
"Hic...Hiccup?" Jack stuttered out, feeling a numb pain in his arm as he tried to reposition himself. He looked over and saw a gash in his forearm, the shirt sleeve completely ripped open. He looked over at the sound of coughing as he watched Hiccup come too, before leaning forward and throwing up into the seat.
"I feel sick," Hiccup muttered, leaning back once more as water continued to drip onto them from the broken windows.
"I'm here, I got ya," Jack said thoughtfully as he Hiccup leaned into him, completely weak and disoriented from the traumatic events.
"Jack? Hiccup? You guys there?" came Benny's voice a bit farther off as Jack turned his head to see Benny climbing the tree branches until he was looking into the car from the driver's window. "Hey you two, you guys okay?" Benny asked, his face soaked with rain as he brushed some of his normally wild hair from his eyes.
Jack nodded his head ever so slightly as they remained silent, still trying to get their vision cleared as both of them felt their heads swimming with a massive headache.
"I...threw up," Hiccup muttered, looking out the cars windshield as he leaned against the passenger side door.
"Oh...well I'm sorry to hear that. Come on guys, we have to get you out of here," Benny exclaimed, opening the door as he stood on it and reached out his hand. Jack looked at Hiccup's green eyes as the he looked dejectedly away from him.
"Hiccup...I don't care that you threw up. Come on bud, we have to get out of this tree," Jack said soothingly, reaching up and wiping off some of the caked on mud from Hiccup's cheeks. Hiccup gave a one sided grin as he nodded his head, reaching over to grab Benny's hand. Jack could hear the cars tires turning as Benny grabbed onto the steering wheel and turned it ever so slightly as he helped Hiccup out.
"Dr. Weir, this was never in the job description," Jack joked, trying his best to find a ounce of humility and humor as he reached forward and took Benny's hand before being helped outside of the car and into the tree branches. They moved their way down slowly as the water dripped all around them, creating slippery and slick branches to hold onto. That's when Jack heard it, the slight movement of the car in the overhead branches before a few broke and it fell forward.
"Shit, move! Move!" Benny hollered out as all three of them began to quickly maneuver around the tree's branches and leaves before the moan of the cars metal began to echo around them before smashing its way down to them. Benny was the first one out as he ran forward, as Jack jumped out and took Hiccup in his arms once more as the car smashed into the ground and fell forward and encased them.
"Well, we are back in the car again!" Hiccup said, making Jack giggle as soon as his heart quit beating so fast.
"At least we are out of the tree," Jack exclaimed, letting Hiccup be the first one to crawl out from under the wrecked vehicle before trying to follow him. Jack felt a immense pain in his arm as he felt onto his chest, crying out in agony before feeling a pair of hands wrap around his shoulders and dragging him out.
"My arm, it feels like it's on fire!" exclaimed Jack as Astrid knelt down and took his injured arm and inspected the gash.
"Well it looks like the cut isn't too deep, but if you don't get help soon it could grow infected and then we would have a real problem." Astrid said as she looked at the slight inflammation of the gash, before tearing off a part of Jack's sleeve and wrapping it tightly around the wound. He cringed in pain before he felt Hiccup wrap a arm under him and lift him up.
"Thanks Hic, it means a lot." Jack said appreciatively as he smiled at Hiccup who just blushed slightly and smiled back.
"Well come on, lets get going. I don't want to stick around near that Tyrannosaur, he could still be nearby," Benny muttered as everyone began to walk off into the forest, all of them wondering if everything would be okay in the back of their minds.
Ethan's POV – Third Person
Ethan walked down the hallway towards his lab as he held his phone in his hand, trying to still send a text out to Benny as he furrowed his brow in agitation. He sure as hell wouldn't admit it to his friend Joshua, but in the time he had talked to Benny and conversed with him he had developed somewhat of a crush on the other male. Ethan came up to the lab door and pressed his hand onto the scanner, hearing as the door hissed and opened for him. He walked into the office, looking at his phone before throwing it at the wall and watching it smash into several large pieces. Everything seem to be failing across the island, and all defenses were now down and it scared him to death. Ethan sat down in his desk chair and began to cry into his arms before hearing the door to the lab hiss and open once more.
"Hey Ethan, are you...Ethan are you okay?" came Jonathan's voice as Ethan jumped up and spun around, wiping his eyes as he stared at the petite Internal Affairs officer Ingen had hired on.
"Yea, I'm fine. Just kinda terrified with all of the fences down, and no access to the outside world," Ethan said as he stood up and moved to a wall computer and turned it one, using the touch screen pad to try and reboot it to no avail. He felt a sense of hopelessness enter his body before he felt a soft hand on his shoulder.
"Ethan, tell me what's really wrong." Jonathan said as he watched Ethan tear up again before wiping them away and taking a seat in a lone chair.
"When Dr. Weir came in earlier this morning, for the first time in my life someone took a interest in me. They cared to ask me about my line of work, how I was, and continued to hold a conversation with me other than a worker here and there. It felt nice, made me feel warm inside. And now everything is falling apart, the parks security is down and we can't contact anyone out there and for the first time in my life, I'm truly afraid," Ethan said softly, looking up at the ceiling tiles as he ran a hand through his messy brown hair. He watched as Jonathan stood there, listening intently before offering him his hand.
"It'll be okay Ethan, just have faith. Now come on, no need for you to be in this lab all by yourself. Let's get back to the park overview room and see if Ray has gotten anything up and running yet." Jonathan said, helping Ethan to his feet before leading him out of the genetics lab and down the corridor.
Ellie's POV – Third Person
Ellie returned back to the car after finding the wreckage of the car in the ravine alongside Joshua as their flashlights played along the ground. She felt a sense of fear lingering in her gut before looking up and seeing Ian in the back, looking at the both of them as a slight vibration shook the ground.
"That's a uh...it's a uh impact tremor. I'm fairly alarmed here. Come on we gotta get out of here, right now, right now!" Ian hollered out as Ellie and Joshua hurried back to the vehicle before the mighty T-Rex crashed through the canopy of tree's, giving a tremendous roar as the Jeep sped off.
"Must go faster!" Ian screamed, the carnivore chasing them down the road as Ellie screamed out loud. She could feel her body trembling as the thing smashed it's head against the side of the car, before Ian lurched forward and moved the stick of the car.
"Get off the stick! Bloody move!" Joshua screamed as he pushed Ian backwards and sped up. "Watch out!" Joshua yelled as a huge log came into view, everyone ducking down as the top of the jeep was torn off before the dinosaur smashed through the wood.
Ellie watched as the charging carnivore began to slow down before finally slowing down and quit chasing them. She grabbed her chest as a big sigh of relief escaped her lips, the dinosaur roaring in defeat as they sped off.
"Think they will have that on the tour?" Ian asked, his sick humor kicking in as they continued driving down the road and Joshua smiled to himself in victory.
Hiccup's POV – Third Person
Hiccup walked alongside Jack, helping him along as they made there way through the forest. He looked over at Jack's ice blue eyes which seem to look at his at the same time. He felt himself smiling before they came across a large tree.
"Do you hear that?" Astrid said, listening to the faint roar of the T-Rex somewhere off in the island jundgle.
"Here, let's camp in this tree for tonight. It'll keep us safe for now," Benny said as they all looked up at a mighty tree, it's roots twisting and turning through the ground as Benny and Astrid began climbing up onto it.
"I hate tree's!" Hiccup muttered with distaste as Jack began to giggle softly as he reached over and ruffled the teens hair.
"Come on Hic, it'll be okay," Jack said as he walked forward, using his good arm to grab onto a tree branch before Hiccup came over and pushed him upwards. He blushed when he realized he was touching Jack's butt before Jack turned back and offered him his good hand. Hiccup took it and climbed upwards, before they all finally made their way to a safe point in it.
"Hey look, little brontosauruses, or I mean Brachiorsaurs!" Hiccup exclaimed excitedly as he pointed off at the jungle canopy, a few herbivores eating the leaves of the tall trees.
"They are the good kind right?" Astrid said, scooting back against the tree bark as she eyed them with fear and uncertainty.
"Relax Astrid, they aren't monsters. These are herbivores." Benny said, smiling as he brought his hands together and made a deep groan before more heads popped up and looked their way.
"That means they eat plants, but I think they'd made a exception for you!" Hiccup teased, causing Astrid to shoot him a deadly glare as everyone else began to giggle.
"Well good, I hate the other kind," Astrid said, taking a breath of relief as she smiled somewhat and watched as Benny climbed down from a higher branch and sat with the other three.
Hiccup felt himself lean into the crook of Jack's arm as he felt himself grow groggy and tired from all the tiring walking and heart pounding, horrifying thrills. They all leaned back against the tree before Benny groaned in pain and leaned forward, digging something out of his pocket before taking out a Velociraptor fossilized claw and staring at it.
"Dr. Weir, what will you do no that you don't have to dig up fossils?" Astrid asked, leaning into the paleontologist as he smiled to himself.
"Well I guess we are going to have to evolve like everything else out there," Benny said, tossing the claw out into the jungle as he leaned his head back and began to rest.
"Jack, what will we do if the carnivores come back?" Hiccup asked, looking up into the older teens eyes as Jack smiled down at him.
"I'll stay up and keep a look out then," Jack said as he smiled and ruffled Hiccup's brown hair before bringing the teen closer to him.
"What do you call a blind dinosaur?" Hiccup asked everyone as they simply looked at him for a answer.
"Do-you-think-he-saurus." Hiccup replied making everyone giggle, including his sister Astrid who was curled up next to a bunch of leaves.
"What do you call a blind dinosaurs dog?" Hiccup asked once more before someone asked what once again.
"Do-you-think-he-saurus-rex!" Hiccup said, making Jack laugh as he leaned his head onto the smaller teens head and looked out into the jungle, watching the herbivores eat the trees. Hiccup leaned back into Jack's touch before feeling a deep sleep overcome his eyes and letting his mind take him off to a land of dreams.
I really hope you all enjoyed! And I hope everyone enjoyed Mother's Day here in the USA! Please review!
