He felt dizzy.

For each hour since the jeep had gone down the hill, Gray had been sprawled out on the ground. He felt his arms feeling numb. His head had felt swollen.

After what seemed like ages, his senses had finally returned. Gray Mitchell slowly opened his eyes and started to shift his head. He groaned slightly as he blinked in the sunlight above.

The last thing he remembered was a sound like thunder. A stampede of numerous species of dinosaurs. The big green shape of the Giganotosaurus. Fang. He remembered the beast had the jeep in its jaws, thrashing it around with Gray and his allies inside. Every second of that experience was blurry. He placed his hand in his head and felt a trickle of blood. He sat upward, his bones aching with each movement.

He felt the sunlight warming himself up. He looked around to see that he was in that same forest. The forest Barry had taken them to in the hopes of finding Owen. With every ounce of strength that had been recovered, he pulled himself up to his feet. He stumbled about before finally maintaining balance.

With a wavering breath, he grunted and began to look around for any signs of his allies. His brother. His girlfriend. Barry. Anything. His legs throbbed as he slowly began to walk. After a few steps, he found he almost stepped in a large hole. But when he looked down, it dawned on him. It was no hole. It was a footprint.

A Dinosaur footprint.

For all he knew, Fang could still be around there. He felt the need to call, but why risk it. Any dinosaur could hear him and make its move. When he turned around, he saw what must've been some part of the stampede. Trees splintered. Grass flattened. It looked like maybe one of the Dinosaurs had fled through this part of the forest, trying to get away from the pack. He began to follow it, in the hopes of finding the others. But after a good deal of stumbling, he did find something.

The Jeep.

It had definitely seen better days. It was wrecked beyond repair now. And the worse part was, it was teetering on the edge of a small cliff. It stood upside down as it began to teeter up and down slowly. That must've been what made that whole mess back there. Gray looked around to see if anyone had been knocked out as the vehicle was thrown down the hill.

A Red Bull can.

Discarded power tools.

An old PowerBar.

He had begun to mumble to himself as he looked around, staying as quiet as a mouse. "Zach, Jan, Barry. Where are you? Where, where, where." His head was throbbing as he spoke. His eyes then found something that may have proven to be useful to his situation. It was his backpack. He looked into it and found Jan's pencil and sketchpad unharmed. And there was his camera.

With the Backpack, he began to pick up every little thing that he found that would be of any importance. Snacks. Supplies. Film. Pencils. Even the old power tools that he found. He then turned to find some more, but a sound had caught his attention.

It was breathing.

There was a large tree root coming from one of the trees standing at the cliff's edge. Gray stumbled towards it slowly as he kept listening for the sound of breathing. And as he looked over the root, he saw her.

Jan.

Covered in mud like he was, Jan was curled up in a fetal position. Her eyes were wide open, staring blankly. Her breathing seemed to be quieter than his.

"Jan, thank God." Gray breathed as he reached down to her.

However, Jan shrunk back and shook her head rapidly. Gray looked at her with confusion as to why she was so resistant all of a sudden.

But with the sudden shaking of the ground, and the frightened birds taking wing, Gray didn't have to be a rocket scientist to know that something was coming. Something very big. A Dinosaur. One of the infected Therapods. Gray gave no second thought before climbing over and sitting next to Jan. The animal was getting closer. They could hear it coming out of the woods, breaking apart trees. They heard its deep and broadened breath, inhaling and exhaling in maddened fury. Soon enough, the face of the dinosaur came into view.

Fang.

The Giganotosaurus had those scars it had gotten from the Therizinosaurus. Its white eyes shifting around with no pupils. White as a ghost. The Giga snorted as air blew in and out of those large nostrils. Its small forelimbs flexed slightly as it grumbled.

Gray and Jan stayed as quiet as humanely possible. Every breath they made was quieter than a Compy. They noticed how Fang seemed to be moving its head from side to side. He was searching. He was so close to them, Gray had have figured that the great best would have smelt them out. Or seen them, for that matter. But it never made a move. That large eye.

That lifeless eye.

Devoid of any color, it was so close to them. So very near. They knew not where it was looking. The eyes of a mindless, savage beast. Incapable of escaping its world of torment. Incapable of finding who it once was. It seemed to have been looking right at them, but it didn't make a move. It let out a low, unknowing growl as it shook the ground walking forward.

Gray didn't want to sit around and wonder why it was that Fang did not smell him or Jan. He only wanted to get the heck out of there. He swiftly grabbed Jan by the arm and slowly helped her up. She seemed terrified to move.

"Jan, come on." Gray mouthed.

She just sat there, clutching the root. She shook her head.

"Jan, please," Gray mouthed with a pleading voice. "I won't let anything happen to you."

Jan hesitated before finally coming to trust the boy she was dating. She extended her hand to his and he pulled her to her feet. Before the two could climb up the hill, however, there was a creaking sound.

The Jeep had been balancing just fine. Just fine. So why did that darned wind have to blow. The demolished vehicle then began to lean over the edge of the cliff before it was finally leaned too far. It fell.

CRASH!

The noise echoed throughout the area. Jan and Gray saw the large head of the Giga raise with a jolt. The two teenagers froze in fear as they watched it. It sniffed the air before going back to searching the bushes. As Gray looked down at his feet, that was when he had realized.

The mud.

That was how the Giga couldn't smell them, or see them. The effects of its disease must've forbidden it from smelling or seeing anything covered in mud. The two then continued to climb. But if in Gray had noticed that branch brushing the mud off of Jan's shoulder.

Gray had continued to mouth to her. No words, and yet she understood everything. "We can head towards the top of the hill. If I know Zach, that's where he would go. And hopefully, Barry or Owen's with him. If we can just make it up there without any of them, we can probably find the-"

The sound of a deafening roar caused them both to yell in fear. They turned around to see the jaws of Fang snapping right behind them. They frantically began to scramble up the dirt hill, smelling the hot breath of the dinosaur. He was so close now. Jan closed her eyes to embrace the death that she knew was coming.

Nothing.

She opened her eyes to see that Fang's jaws were stuck clamping in two larger roots that hung over both of them. The Giganotosaurus twisted to get free, but it only gave the two enough time to run. Right before Fang turned both roots to splinters.

Never had Gray or Jan run so fast in their lives. Well, Gray maybe. When he and Zach ran from the Indominus Rex what seemed like forever ago. They sprinted through the woods as they heard Fang climb up the side of the cliff behind them. His thunderous roar was enough to scare them enough to run faster.

The two ran as fast as they had ever run in their lives. Even though they were far ahead of the beast, they knew that he could smell them now, and would be on them in minutes.

The two had never known such extreme terror in their lives. Not even when they were mere inches away from the Snout of the Spinosaurus. Further in, they ran, their feet aching from both the situation's stamina and the pain they still felt from their tumble in the Jeep.

As they had reached the top of the hill, they had stopped to catch their breath. Now, after being terrified beyond belief, Jan had decided to speak again. "Did you find any of them?"

"No," Gray shook his head. "If they're alive, I'm sure we'll find them-"

He felt a sudden tug on his left arm. He felt himself be pulled into a tree trunk. He turned to see who it was that had grabbed him.

Zach.

"Za!-"

The eldest Mitchell brother held Gray's mouth closed in a swift motion. He titled his head as to imply for Gray and Jan to join him inside his tree. The two then crawled as fast as they followed him inside the tree. They could hear the pushing of trees outside. Something was coming.

And from the other side of their hiding place, they heard the guttural snarling of a new Dinosaur. Zach knew what it was, for it was the one that he had been hiding from in the first place. But Gray and Jan recognized it by sound. They both knew it as the sound of the Allosaurus. They had both decided to give thus carnivore the name 'Spectre', on account of how it normally worked during the nighttime, unlike the rest of its infected brethren. Despite seemingly loosing their minds from this odd disease, these Dinosaurs still had some defining traits that set them apart from mindless animals. Yes, they seemed to be suffering, but they seemed to still recognize each other as allies. However, they held no morals against other subjects, and that was earned their pity from Gray and Jan.

They heard Spectre sniff around, hoping to catch their scent. Outside the tree, they saw its scaly foot stomp into view. And then they could hear its sniffing grow louder. They knew that it was almost upon them. Before they had time to brace themselves, however, another sound could be heard coming from the underbrush they had just run through. It was followed by the grunting of the Giganotosaurus.

The three young adults listened as the two large carnivores growled and snarled at each other. If only they knew what was going in in their speech. Their communication was not as average in their crazed states as other Dinosaurs spike with one another. Their growls sounded unearthly, demonic. If only the humans knew what they were saying. Even in Dinosaur talk, this would be heard as grunts and growls.

"Fang, as hard-headed as ever." Spectre circled around the larger, green predator

"Don't give me any of your riddles," Fang snarled. "There were two humans coming through here. Have you found them?"

"It was not part of the plan the Alpha explained to us." Spectre commented. "It is a simple formula, Fang. We have to follow the orders of our Alpha. It is our protocol. You get the headaches just as much as I."

"What the Alpha doesn't know can't hurt him," Fang snarled. "You know we can't control ourselves when we smell them Spectre. So if we kill a human here or there, you know we can't stop ourselves because of what's happened to us."

"Does that explain that new scar on your face?"

Without another snarling word spoken, Fang lunged at the Allosaurus with a bounding step. Before the two could fight, however, a sound like loud barking cut them off. The two then turned to the south side of the clearing. They turned to find their Alpha and the lumbering shape of Ahab the Spinosaurus emerging from the forest.

As Gray and the others peeked out from their tree, their eyes could not believe what it was that they beheld. A Raptor. A male Velociraptor. The news had told them in 2018 that Blue was the last surviving Velociraptor in existence. So seeing another living and breathing individual was not something that they had expected at a time like this.

When they heard humans talking did they duck back into the trunk. They heard footsteps coming around the tree as one of them seemed to be talking into a walkie-talkie.

"Yeah, Lewis, all the Facets are regrouping in the woods. We have G624W and A992Z already here. Are you sure we should be this close to them?"

"Will you take a break, Gavin?" The voice on the other line said begrudgingly. "I have the device that controls Z667S. And since the Pack does whatever he says, I can make it so they never turn on us. Tell the boys to meet up back at base. It seems that Biosyn is now in control. For your best interests."

The man answered back by repeating his last statement. "For your best interests."

As they heard the man turn off his device, Gray and the others heard the Raptor snarl in what sounded like pain. They then heard it bark loudly again, earning submissive grunts and snarls from all the infected Dinosaurs. The ground shook as Ahab walked closest behind the Raptor as he led them all away.

The Carnotaurus walked next to the Ceratosaurus. The larger red Dinosaur had been limping from his encounter with Baselton, and he had a fresh new scar on his Snout from where he stabbed him. The Carnotaurus, known as Khan, stayed close to his larger companion as they followed their pack mates.

Soon, silence returned to that part of the forest. The men and the Dinosaurs had most likely cleared out. If not, then they were very good at keeping quiet. Gray was the first to emerge from the tree. His senses had been back for some time after the big wreck. He held Jan's hand as Zach followed behind them.

"That was a Raptor." Jan, who had been in shock for a short amount of time after Gray had found her, had soon gotten the sense back to speak. "Aren't they supposed to be virtually extinct?"

"That's what the news said," Gray answered as he placed his hands on his hips. "Blue was supposed to be the last."

"But we know that Blue's out here with us.' Zach sighed. "She was there at Owen's cabin wasn't she?"

"Yeah, but what was that Raptor doing with Biosyn?" Jan questioned. "Could that have something to do with the pack?"

"Well, it's clear now that Biosyn's behind it," Gray answered. "But what did he mean by 'in control'?"

"Uh, guys?"

Zach's voice had grown rather severe and concerned as he looked at his phone. How did it survive survive the wreck? Gray and Jan looked at it and watched a video play on the live stream of the news.

They had not seen so much carnage. Not since the 2015 incident. Children dead. So many people dead. A destroyed neighborhood. The electric fence that they were building was in shambles. And then, the scene cut from a drone shot to a shot of a man with short hair and a thin mustache walking towards the town hall. The captions below the scene read:

BIOSYN TO REPLACE GOVERNMENT. SENATOR TO SIGN TREATY WITH BIOSYN REPRESENTATIVE.

That was enough to tell the three what was going on. They knew now that their home was now under the watch of an organization of terrorists. Terrorists who had used brainwashed Dinosaurs to do their devastating work. They knew what the conclusion was now.

"We can't go back."

Hey all you Jurassic fans! So here you have the first chapter of Act 2 of my story. Gray, Jan, and Zach all survive their encounter with Fang the Giganotosaurus. What I have going for the Pack is that sometimes they can communicate with each other. But then comes the headaches that Hurisym causes them, which forces them to follow the orders of their reluctant Alpha, Zeus.

Don't worry. You'll be seeing Zeus interact with Blue again soon. You'll find that Zeus has no intention of willingly aiding Biosyn in their further endeavors. It looks like our three young heroes are taking refuge in the forest for the time being. I can tell you that Act 2 will be longer than Act 1, and will bring together all characters against Biosyn. We can only pray that they will be able to find a cure for the Hurisym chemical and reverse their effects on the Pack.

Well, that's it for this Chapter. Stay tuned for more, be sure to keep an eye out for the teaser for the actual movie coming out with F9. Also, be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel, MadDino Productions, and watch for my review of Jurassic Park. Stay safe out there, and Spare
