This is a dinosaur tour right?
Chapter 7
After a few minutes into the drive we seen fences with barred wires and electric wires. Lex and Tim looked out looking for anything unusual.
"To the right, you will see a herd of the first dinosaurs on our tour, called Dilophosaurus." The voice said through the intercom. Tim and Lex practically slam up against the windows, to get a look. I looked from the passenger seat in the front, while the lawyer struggled to get a look.
"The safety. That's the problem I had to answer." He mumbled to himself.
"Shhh." I shook my head annoyed.
"I can't see." Tim complained. I sighed, "Lex move over so Tim can look."
"What are we looking for?" The lawyer asked. I looked behind me to see if anyone in the other car was looking, no doubt Dad was.
"Dilophosaurus." Tim said, his gaze completely on the window.
IN THE SECOND CAR.
Alan looks at his map. Ellie, hearing the voice aswell as Ian they scramble to the window.
"Oh, shit." Ellie smiled, Alan threw the map down. "Dilophosaurus."
Alan, Ian, and Ellie press against the windows.
There are a lot of beautiful plants, but no sign of a herd of anything. The tour voice continues anyway.
"One of the earliest carnivores, we now know Dilophosaurus is actually poisonous, spitting its venom at its prey, causing blindness and eventually paralysis, allowing the carnivore to eat at its leisure. This makes Dilophosaurus a beautiful, but deadly addition to Jurassic Park."
IN THE FRONT CAR.
"There's nothing there!" Tim said. I looked closely to see if there was anything moving. Nothing.
IN THE SECOND CAR.
Ellie looked everywhere she could but no sign. "Alan, where?"
"Damn." Alan grunted sitting back. The three sat back in disappointment.
IN THE FRONT CAR.
I sighed in disappointment, I looked at kids who were both frowning and the lawyer was just shaking his head mumbling. "Lighten up you two, I'm sure we will see something."
"I hope so." Tim said. I smiled and patted his shoulder as we glided on through the jungle. I just could see Dad now cursing in frustration in the other car, I smiled inwardly.
TWENTY MINUTES LATER….
The two Explorers drive along a high ridge and stop at the edge of the large, open plain that is separated from the road by a fifteen- foot fence, clearly marked with "DANGER!" signs and ominous-looking electrical post.
Me, Tim, Lex, and the lawyer or Gennaro (as he kept telling me to call him) are pressed forward against the windows, our eyes wide, waiting for the T-Rex to make an appearance which I doubt it would.
IN THE SECOND CAR.
The voice of the radio drones on, but Alan, Ellie and Ian aren't even listening anymore, dying of anticipation. "The mighty tyrannosaurus arose late in the dinosaur history. Dinosaurs ruled the earth for hundred and fifty million years, but it wasn't until the last- -
"Will you turn that thing off?" Alan asked, not tearing his eyes away from the window. Ellie flips a switch and they wait in silence - - except for Ian who looks at the ceiling, thinking aloud.
"God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs. God creates man. Man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs." He points with his fingers.
"Dinosaur eats man. Woman inherits the Earth." Ellie finished, she misses the stares that Ian and Alan give her. Suddenly a voice comes through the intercom, "Hold on, we'll try to tempt the rex."
IN THE PADDOCK.
There is a low humming sound, out in the middle of the field, a small cage rises up into view, lifted on hydraulics from underground. The cage bars slide down, leaving the cage's occupant standing alone in the middle of the field. It's a goat, one leg chained to a stake.
IN THE FRONT CAR
Me Lex and Tim look at the goat with widely different reactions. I looked at the lawyer's reaction, and he looked grossed out. It was going to eat it the poor thing, I really did not want to watch it eat though.
"What's going to happen to the goat? He's going to eat the goat?!" Lex shouted looking at the lawyer.
"Excellent." He sounded dreamy as he said it.
The lawyer never took his eyes of the lamb. "What's the matter, kid, you never had lamb chops?"
"I happen to be a vegetarian." She said back, I smiled. "Good on you." Not many people had the ability to be one. I knew for sure I couldn't.
IN THE SECOND CAR,
Alan shook his head putting his hat back on, "T-rex doesn't want to be fed; he wants to hunt. You can't just suppress sixty-five million years of gut instinct." Beside him Ellie nodded.
IN THE PADDOCK.
The goat waits and waits from the Explorers, six faces watch it expectantly. The goat tugs on its chain. It walks back and forth, nervous. It bleats wanting to move but can't, so it just sits down.
IN THE SECOND CAR.
Alan watched his eyes glued and his breathing becoming a little more rapid. Ian starts to get a little fed up and sits back. Ellie too sits back.
IN THE FRONT CAR.
Tim and Lex can't tear their eyes away, I realized nothing wasn't coming out either and sat back and looked at my mobile for any messages. None. I sighed.
IN THE REAR CAR,
Everyone sat back, disappointed again, as the cars pulled forward to continue the tour. Ian picked up the microphone. "Now, eventually you do plan to have dinosaurs on your dinosaur tour, right?" No response. "Hello. Hello." He breathe through the microphone, unaware that someone watching him on the other side.
