Every employee has gathered in the meeting room, discussing Mount Sibo. They fear that if they don't evacuate everyone, including the dinosaurs, they'll all die in the volcanic catastrophe. Val and her friends listen from the outside of the room, watching the adults chattering with worry and fear. Masrani is also presented there, knowing that his island was in jeopardy and the people's lives are at stake if they don't evacuate before Mount Sibo erupts.
"Everyone! We need to stay calm and figure the matter on hand," Claire said to everyone in a dead serious look, "We have over sixty-five-thousand people in the park and thirty-two dinosaur species, including the Graboids and the Xenormorphs. We have to contact the mainland in Costa Rica to prepare for an emergency evacuation." Claire looks towards Lowery Cruthers and Vivian Krill, "Lowery, Vivian, what's the statues on the evacuation ships?"
Lowery types something on his laptop and an image is shown on the big screen. "The evacuation ships has to be about six or seven considering we have sixty-five-thousand people, and we gonna need two or three or five helluva big ships for the herbivores and the carnivores to transport all these dinos to Site B or that island that Mantah Corp was illegally making dinos before Jurassic World claim it thanks to S.H.I.E.L.D." He explains it to the group.
"However, we won't get there in time, they'll be here within a week, and if the island continues to cause more tremors, we'll lose power or get cracks in the jungle." Vivian explains the rest of the situation.
This caused everyone to worry, whispering amongst each other. Owen and Claire looked at each other with worry while Masrani was concerned about the situation. Then the systems analyst, Franklin Webb, became scared, as he looked up through his laptop for possible nearby cargo ships that could be close by, but sadly, there weren't any ships nearby for miles.
"Not even cargo ships are close by to call for help." Franklin said in disappointment.
"What about Tim Murphy? He can ask his superiors for help." Suggested one of the paleo-veterinarians, Dr. Zia Rodriguez.
"And if he cannot answer?" Asked a coworker, "He could be serving in Afghanistan or in Syria!"
Soon, an argument broke loose, stating that they should try and contact Tim while others are saying that it could be a waste of time, and they have to find an alternative. The kids watched with worry as the adults argued, thinking of ways to get the people and dinosaurs out of here. The kids stopped listening when they heard someone coming. Turning around, they gasped in total shock and astonishment as this particular person entered the room unannounced.
"HEY!" A female's voice called out from the door.
The adults stopped their argument and turned to the door. They were surprised to see a familiar face. Standing at the doorway was a freelancer and good friend of Jurassic World, Danica Temperance Grady, but few people knew her real identity.
Dark Twilight. A bio-weapon super soldier that was created with Val's DNA. She was in her human form, as her realm form remains hidden. She is the adopted daughter of Oscar and Alma, the niece of Owen, and the older sister of Val and Celestia. Dark needed a backstory and she was gone on a traveling trip and that is why she hasn't been around. Now, she's working as an agent in S.H.I.E.L.D. Anyways, Dark has a reason to be here, and it's to help them. She found out that the island's volcano was going to erupt and she pulled some strings. When I meant pulling strings, I meant that she asked Agent Fury for a big favor.
"Danica? What are you doing here?" Owen asked her in surprise.
Dark smirks at her, "I knew something bad was gonna happen to the park, guess I was right."
"Do you have something to say, Danica?" Masrani asked her.
Dark walks over to them and places a device on the table. Soon, holographic images of airships appeared, all belonging to S.H.I.E.L.D. Much to the surprise from the group. "I contacted Agent Fury and asked him for a big favor, sending about a hundred or more air transport to evacuate the people. The dinosaurs will be transported by ships, which S.H.I.E.L.D. provided."
Hearing this good news, the people muttered amongst each other, filled with relief and awe at Dark's quick thinking, "When will you be expecting the transportation?" Claire asked her.
"In two days. The airships will transport them to the mainland safely while the dinosaur will be taken to Isla Sorna or Mantah Corp's Island." Dark explains to everyone in a dead serious tone. "However, transporting the dinosaurs will take either three or four days to relocate them to those islands. And additional hours for putting every tracker on them."
"Then we better get started." Owen said, getting up from his seat. "We have to put all trackers on the dinos, and make a public announcement to the mainland."
"Lowery, Franklin, please contact any news station to announce a public emergency, that way, the people will know about the sudden evacuation." Claire said to the two techies.
"Yes, ma'am." Lowery said to Claire while Franklin nodded his head.
"Mr. Masrani, you have to announce the problem to the tourists and the news. They need to know what's going" Claire said to Masrani.
"I understand, Claire, just focus on getting the transportation and everyone to safety."
"Everyone understood the plan?" Dark questions them loudly. Everyone made approving sounds, agreeing and understanding the plan. "Alright, now get your asses movin'! We have a lot to do!"
With the plan settled, everyone prepares for the evacuation. Lowery and Franklin were able to get news media to broadcast Masrani's announcement at the plaza. He told everyone about Mount Sibo about to erupt within two weeks and needed everyone to evacuate and the mainland to prepare for the sudden arrival of the tourists. They quickly got a response from the mainland, agreeing to prepare an evacuation center for the tourists. Much to everyone's relief. The people in the park prepaid their belongings, and parents made sure to keep their children's close at all times. The paleo-veterinarians and scientists made sure to put all trackers on the dinosaurs. Wu, Archie, Allison Miles, and Buzz Creeper (Archie and Aggie's cousin) were assigned to monitor the dinosaurs while Buzz was tasked with keeping track of the prehistoric insects. The kids helped out the best way they could, mostly Val, she talks with the dinosaurs and tells them about the situation. Luckily, they understood her and obeyed her commands. The Pteranodons and Dimorphodons had trackers on them as they were going to Isla Sorna first, since they can fly, they can easily get to the island with no problem. They send an ACU team to keep an eye on the flying reptiles, making sure neither one leaves the flock. Mona the Mosasaurus was allowed to leave the park and to open waters after she had her tracker on. Mona was being taken to bigger waters and being monitored by a crew that were on the boat. Val told Mona not to harm anyone on the ocean, which Mona obeyed, before she swam away with a boat following her.
When two days passed by, the air transportation arrived in a nick of time and got everyone to safety. The dinosaurs' transportation will be coming in soon, but right now, they have to keep track of all the dinosaurs, especially the newer ones. Claire was talking with Masrani and Owen about the schedule while Archie and Myron's group monitor Mount Sibo. It was getting worse and they needed everyone out as soon as possible. Meanwhile, Claire's phone (that was with Zara) rang, causing Zara to answer it.
"Hello? This Zara Young, Claire Dearing's assistant, who am I speaking to?"
:May I speak with Ms. Dearing?: A voice that belongs to an elderly British woman responded.
"I am sorry, but she is busy right now. May I ask what your reason is?"
:My name is Iris Carroll, I'm calling from Mr. Benjamin Lockwood's estate. Would you mind asking Ms. Dearing that Mr. Lockwood wishes to speak with her in person?:
"Hmm...Please hold for a moment?" Zara asked the elderly woman, who responded with a yes. Zara walked over to Claire, who finished talking with the two men, and noticed Zara coming over. "Ms. Dearing, someone known as Iris Carroll wishes to speak with you."
"Where is the call from?" Owen suddenly asked, suspicious about the sudden call.
"From Benjamin Lockwood's estate." Zara responded.
Masrani's eyes widened in surprise, completely stunned by her words, "Benjamin Lockwood?"
"Do you know him, Mr. Masrani?" Owen asked the CEO.
"Not personally, but he was a former business partner of Hammond's before the original Jurassic Park was shut down. No one has heard of him since." Masrani explains to them.
"That's... really strange." Claire said, being suspicious like Owen. "If I recall, someone else is running the Lockwood's foundation. I think it was...Eli Mills."
"Uh-huh, but why the sudden call?" Owen asked.
"I am not sure; But Mr. Lockwood wishes to speak with Claire in person." Zara said to them.
Claire, Owen, and Masrani looked at each other with concerned looks, unsure if Claire should go or not. "I...think I should check this out." Claire suddenly said.
Owen looks at Claire, as if she grew another head, "Wha-Claire, you can't be serious! We don't know what he wants."
"We'll find out if I go there." Claire said to Owen.
"But you're pregnant! You can't go there by yourself!"
"I can come along." Dark spoke, coming towards them after hearing their conversation, "I'm curious on why did Mr. Lockwood stop being partners with Hammond. Maybe he has a reason."
Owen sighs, knowing very well that he isn't going to win this argument, but he was grateful for Dark coming along, "Fine, but contact me as soon as you get there."
Claire sighs at Owen's protectiveness, but agrees, feeling that there was something up in Lockwood's manner. "Alright, and while I'm gone, make sure everything is ready for the evacuation."
And with that said, Claire and Dark went off to go to Lockwood's estate, finding out about his reason to contact Claire.
Dark was driving a car on the Cliffside of the road in Northern California with Claire sitting next to her. With them was a sleeping Destiny at the back. The experimental girl was fast asleep; her long hair has shortened a bit and braided, and is wearing a colorful baggy, hooded jacket. Dark needed to bring someone with her, for she has a gut feeling that Lockwood is hiding something and she needs back up.
However, unbeknownst to her and the others, they weren't aware of the secret in the manor.
Within the forest near the Lockwood Manor, a young Caucasian girl the same age as Val and Celestia was walking through the forest's path, humming a nursery song called 'Tom, Tom, the Piper's Son'. She has long reddish-brown hair, and blue eyes with hints of green around her pupils scanned the area with no care of the world. She wore a red/blue/white checkered jacket with a yellow t-shirt under it, blue ripped jeans, and red converse shoes. She was happily picking some crabgrass, dandelions, and purple thistle, placing them in her basket. She then stray off the path and to the forest, where she finds some poppies. Unaware that she was being watched beneath the undergrowth.
As the young girl continues to hum the song, the mysterious figure stalks towards her with incredible silence. Its hook-like claw taps on the forest grass, showing a distinguished pattern. The girl was too distracted to notice its sound when she spotted a rabbit close by. She smiles brightly at it and offers the rabbit some dandelions. It was about much until it stood up with its ears raised, and then ran off. This confuses the girl; however, she notices something looking down at her. She slowly turns around and gasps in pure shock to see a raptor-like creature with hellfire eyes, dark scales, and sharp crooked teeth. It was a hybrid dinosaur, the Indoraptor. It was looking at the girl with his scary gaze.
The girl continued staring at the beast with wide eyes before her mouth formed into a bright smile. "RIPPER! YOU FOUND THEM!" The girl cheered happily.
The Indoraptor known as Ripper has some purple-blue color sage flowers in his jaws. Ripper lowered his head and allowed the girl to reach the sages. The girl giggles and accepts the flowers, placing them in the basket. She hugs the Indoraptor's snout, earning small yet deep purrs from the hybrid, making the girl giggle loudly. Her laughter ceased when Ripper lifted his head and turned toward a certain direction. Confused and curious, the young girl followed his gaze and saw a tall male, well built, with white/silver shoulder length hair, tannish skin, and bright glowing green eyes. He smiles at them warmly while the young girl smiles at him and waves.
"Hi, Tobi!"
The man known as Tobi walks over to her and kneels at her height before gently ruffling her hair, making the little girl giggle again. Ripper lowered his head and made a gentle rumbling sound, greeting Tobi. The male smiles and gently pats Ripper's nose, making the Indoraptor purr a bit. The male then looked at the girl warmly and did some sign language.
Masie, it's time to go home
The girl known as Maisie pouted at this. She understands sign language and knows her playtime is over, "Aww...but Tobi! I wanna play some more with Ripper!"
Tobi shook his head and did more sign language, Maisie, you know you're not supposed to sneak off, if Ms. Carroll finds out you've been avoiding your lesson again...
Maisie sighs in annoyance, "She'll get mad and I'll get trouble again!" She mutters out the last part.
Tobi smiles and gently ruffles her hair. He then lifts her up from the ground and puts her on Ripper's back. The Indoraptor carries the young girl back to the manor while Tobi walks besides them. Maisie was pouting all the way back to the manor, clearly didn't want to go back inside. Tobi saw her reaction and snap his fingers to get her attention. Maisie turned towards him with a pout as Tobi did more sign language.
If you continue frowning, it will be stuck like that on your face.
Maisie huffs and sticks her tongue out at Tobi, "You're no fun, Tobi!"
Tobi made a silent laugh and then did more sign language. I'm just being responsible, Maisie, that's what an older brother does.
"But an older brother should always let their little sister play a bit more, right?" Maisie pleaded, giving him innocent wide eyes and a cute smile.
Tobi smiles at her and shook his head as he did another sign, Nice try, Maisie, but the answer is still no.
Maisie pouted at him again, "Party pooper!"
Tobi smiles and continues doing sign language, Sorry, Maisie, but I have to take you back. Grandfather is going to have visitors soon.
Maisie looks at her brother curiously, "Really? Who are they?"
From what I recall, they are associated with John Hammond, grandfather's old friend.
Maisie gasped in realization, "Are they from Jurassic World?"
Ever since Tobi could remember, Maisie always dreams of going to Jurassic World. She heard so much from their grandfather, Benjamin Lockwood. He tells them stories of how John Hammond was able to create dinosaurs by using the DNA, stored in the mosquitos that were in the ambers. She begged her grandfather to take them, not just for her, but also for Ripper. She wanted him to meet other dinosaur hybrids that are like him since he heard about the hybrid dinosaurs from the news. Sadly, Lockwood forbids this, pointing out that Ripper is a special hybrid, and doesn't want him to appear in public, much to Maisie's dismay.
They are. Now, we better hurry. Otherwise, Ms. Carroll will be cross when she finds out you sneak off again. We can drop Ripper back to his pen on our way.
The pen that Ripper lives in is hidden behind the manor. It was big enough for Ripper to sleep in and allow him to go in and out, as he pleases with Tobi's supervision. It was also a good excuse to play with Maisie. They reach the manor without getting spotted, just in time too. Since their guests have arrived.
Dark parks the vehicle near the stairs as she, Claire, and Destiny step out of it and walk up to the stairs then to the door. Dark knocks at the door and they wait for a few seconds before it opens by an elderly woman. She is black with a hint of grayish hair, blue eyes, and wears formal attire. It didn't take long for them to find out that this was Iris Carroll.
Iris Carroll looks at them calmly, "Ms. Dearing, you're early."
"Yeah, sorry, we had to come as soon as possible." Claire said to Iris Carroll.
"Would you like to step in?" Iris Carroll steps aside.
Claire nodded her head as she, Dark, and Destiny, "Thank you."
"I will inform Mr. Mills that you've arrived." Iris Carroll said to Claire, closing the door behind them as the three females entered the manor.
After Iris Carroll left the three females, they observe the area and notice how it was more like a museum than a manor, considering that there were many portraits of natures or famous investors or artists. They then stopped when they spotted a portrait of John Hammond. Claire and Dark walked over to it while Destiny was staring at a portrait of nature.
"John Alfred Hammond." A male voice spoke.
This causes both Dark and Claire to turn around to the stairway to see a tall and slender man with brown hair, green eyes, and a shaved brown mustache and beard. Wearing a black suit and a blue, white, and red striped tie.
"The father of Jurassic Park. But of course, you know that." He said, walking down the stairway towards Claire and Dark. "Hello, Claire, I'm, I'm Eli. Mills. I work for Ben Lockwood. We actually met once, 7-8 years ago, and you don't remember..."
Claire gave him a warm smile, "Of course, I remember. Haven't you run his foundations since..."
"Since college. Yeah. You remember?" Eli asked her jokingly.
"Yes!" Claire chuckles at this.
Eli smiles at this. "Wow, cool. He wanted someone young, and idealistic to expand his fortune. And I used to be both."
They both laugh together while Dark looks at the man suspiciously. She has a bad feeling about this man. Eli then looks at Dark with a mix of curiosity and a hint of surprise, clearly not expecting Claire to bring someone.
"Oh, um...who is this?" Eli asked.
Claire looks at Dark and gestures to her, "This is my niece, Danica Grady."
Danica made a simple nod and outstretched her hand, "Hey."
"Hi." Eli shakes her hand.
Dark's eyes slightly narrowed, feeling something strange when she made contact with Eli, as if there was a hidden secret that no one knows about. After she withdrew her hand from him, Dark said to him, "Sorry if I came along, Uncle Owen is worried about Aunt Claire's condition." She gestures to Claire's swollen belly.
Eli saw this and understood her, "Ah, yes, I am aware of her condition. And might I say congratulations on your future boy or girl." He congratulated Claire with a kind smile.
"Thank you, we hope that our baby will be born after the whole evacuation is over." Claire said to Eli.
"By the way, who's that girl over there? I wasn't aware there was not another one." Eli points towards Destiny, who was busy staring at a potted plant.
Dark and Claire followed his gaze. He has no idea that they brought Destiny here for backup, but he doesn't know that. "That's Destiny, she's a child of an acquaintance of mine." She lied, not wanting to tell Eli that Destiny is an experimental bio-weapon child. "Anyways, why did you call my aunt here?"
"Yes, follow me, and I'll show you."
Dark calls out to Destiny to follow, and she obeys, as Eli guides them down to the front hallway to another room, revealing a small mini Museum Parlor, adorned with large dinosaur dioramas built in large display. There are several fossils of prehistoric life ranging from a ceratopsian dinosaur and a fossil of a Smilodon. There was a second level accessible by spiral metal stairs that had a small library adorned with books, possibly related to the prehistoric past. In the center of the room was a Triceratops skull in the center of the room. Destiny stops and stares at the Triceratops's skull while Dark and Claire follow Eli through the room while he talks.
"Let me give you a bit of history. This is where it all began. Before the islands, Sorna, Jurassic Park, all of it. Hammond and Lockwood built a custom lab in a sub-basement extracted the first DNA from amber, right beneath our feet."
"My goodness! What they did here was a miracle. I still believe that." Claire commented kindly.
"So do I, Claire. So do I, and I still believe it matters, what happens to those animals. There is something Mr. Lockwood would very much like you to do, Claire. You can call it a favor for an old friend." Eli shows them a miniature island display. Showing cliff sides, lustful greenery, and mountains. "Ever since we heard about the news of Mount Sibo's incoming eruption, we have had a piece of land. A sanctuary. Protected by natural barriers, fully self-sustaining. A new home where the dinosaurs will be secure...and free."
Claire and Dark looked at the island, and then to each other. They didn't expect they could get help from Lockwood. Then a question came into mind, why is Lockwood helping them after coming out of blue? Surely, there was a reason, other than saving the dinosaurs. Dark has her suspicion towards Eli Mills. He was hiding something and he's doing the whole good guy schtick to cover up his act.
"Is there a reason why you want to help us save them?" Dark asked him with a hint of suspicion.
Suddenly, another voice comes, belonging to an elderly man.
"No, my dear. I'm going to save us."
The three turn towards the source of the voice. Coming towards them on a wheelchair was Benjamin Lockwood. The elderly man gave them a warm look as he made his way towards them. Dark could tell that Lockwood has terminal illness, and may have few years to live.
"We could both use a touch of redemption, couldn't we?" Lockwood rolls over towards Claire and outstretches his hand, and she gladly accepts, before shaking gently, "Lovely to see you again."
"And you, Mr. Lockwood." Claire said in return.
Lockwood then turns to Dark. The woman smiles at him slightly and outstretches her hand, "Hi, I'm Danica Grady, Claire's niece. Nice to meet you, Mr. Lockwood."
Lockwood shakes her hand in return, giving Dark a warm smile, "Pleasure is all mine, my dear."
As they let go, Dark asked Lockwood about the island on the table, "So...what is all this?" Dark asked the elderly man. "Is there a reason why you wish to save the dinosaurs?"
Lockwood nodded his head as moves his wheelchair around the table, looking at the island figure. "This was all John Hammond's dream. To let these creatures live in peace. So, we have created a sanctuary. No fences, no cages, no tourists. Just as Mother Nature intended."
As Lockwood explains his idea, Dark could sense someone was watching them from the upper level. She looked at the reflection in the display case, and saw an image of a young girl that was the same age as Val and Celestia, watching them secretly. Dark gently nudges Claire, causing the woman to look at her as Dark gestures the reflection of the girl on top of the upper level. Seeing this, Claire turns at the upper level to see a little girl figure. However, the young girl notices Claire looking at her, and quickly bolts out of there, as if she knows that she shouldn't be there. Claire was confused yet curious about the little girl before turning back to Lockwood, who was fiddling with the tip of his cane, which was an oval-shaped piece of amber containing a mosquito, strongly resembling John Hammond's cane. Dark could see great remorse and sadness in his eyes.
"John said it best. 'These creatures don't need our protection. They need our absence.' When we were young, we both shared this passion, John and I. What fools we were. Trying to run before we'd learn to walk. As all young men do, I suppose. But, we learned. Unfortunately, in the end, it drove us apart. Life teaches us some very hard lessons..." He then looks at Claire, who has been listening to his words. "Doesn't it, Claire?"
Dark watches as Claire responds with a simple nod. "Yes. And I am grateful that you wish to help, but Jurassic World already has assistance with S.H.I.E.L.D."
This surprised both Lockwood and Eli, although Eli was slightly panicked by her words, causing Dark to narrow her eyes at him suspiciously. "I wasn't aware that S.H.I.E.L.D. offered assistance."
"Yes, they aided us on some occasions, most likely stopping a madman." She mutters out the last part before clearing her throat, "We plan to put all the dinosaurs to Isla Sorna, where they have been put with trackers on them."
"I see..." Lockwood mutters in understanding.
Eli then steps forward, "Surely, we could arrange a better offering, just in case Isla Sorna's volcano erupts like Mount Sibo."
"That's highly unlikely." Dark said, crossing her arms, looking at Eli with suspicion, "I escorted some volcanologists on that island a few days before the eruption, and they concluded that Isla Sorna's volcano is forever dormant."
"Sir Benjamin." Iris Carroll calls out to him gently.
Iris Carroll came in with a male following behind her, preventing Eli from explaining even further. Dark and Claire were looking at the male with a mixed expression. Claire was curious about him while Dark was suspicious about the male. She could feel some strange energy that he was emitting that only she and some individual could see. Her gaze then turns to Lockwood as the elderly man sighs as if he knows it was time for something.
"Hmm...my bloody medicines." He mutters out. Lockwood looked back at Claire with an apologetic smile, "Would you excuse me, Claire?"
"Of course, sir." Claire said with a nod.
"If you wish to use the island, it will remain vacant, and if you ever wish to use it, Eli here will help you with the details." Lockwood said before he looked at Claire gently and then took her hand, holding firmly. "We will save them. With a gift...For our children."
Claire stares at them with gentle and grateful eyes. "Thank you." She whispers to Lockwood.
The elderly man smiles before he turns to Iris Carroll and the male, "Iris? Tobi?"
The male known as Tobi walks behind Lockwood's chair and gently pushes him to another with Iris Carroll following them. Claire and Dark watched them leave, before Claire turns to Eli. "Who's that male helping Ms. Carroll?" She asked him.
"Oh, that's Tobi." Eli answered.
"Tobi?" Dark asked with a raised brow.
"Yes, he's the adoptive grandson of Mr. Lockwood."
"Adopted?" Claire asked in surprise. "That mean there are children? Because we thought I saw a little girl up there just now."
Eli nodded his head, "Yeah, that's his biological grandchild, Maisie. His daughter died in a car accident."
"That's awful." Claire said with sympathy.
"Yeah, I know. But they're very close. Really close. And Tobi was adopted after an acquaintance of his asked us to take care of him after he passed away."
"Sorry for your loss." Dark mutters out before she looks at the upper level. "Is Tobi and Maisie close?"
Eli smiles, "Yes, very close, they're like brothers and sisters. Maisie would follow him around and he takes care of her if Iris wasn't busy, and she was the one who gave him the nickname Tobi."
"Wait, Tobi is not his real name?" Dark asked Eli with a brow raise.
"Ah, yes, Maisie gave him the nickname Tobi to shorten his real name."
"And his real name is what exactly?" Dark further questions him.
"His real name is Tiberius Orenthal Balthazar Izaiah Lockwood, Tobi for short."
After Eli said Tobi's real name, Dark and Claire stared at him with confused and blank expressions. Yeah, they can understand why his name is Tobi. Anyways, wanting the elephant out of the room, Eli clears his throat.
"Well...why don't we continue talking about this matter in my office?" Eli suggested.
"Of course," Claire nodded in agreement before looking at Dark, "Call Destiny, we're about to go."
"Gotcha, come on, Dest, we're heading ooofff...shit." Dark suddenly cursed when she noticed that Destiny had wandered off, again. Sighing in annoyance, Dark looks at the exit of the room, "Dammit, she wandered off again."
"Oh, dear..." Claire mumbles out, knowing very well how Destiny can be dangerous if not alone. "Why don't Danica search for Destiny while we talk about the matter in hand?" She asked Eli.
Eli nodded his head, "Of course, if you need any assistance, some maids are close by to assist you."
"Thanks,"
Dark went off to search for Destiny while Eli guides Claire to his office to discuss further more of the offer. Claire worries about what trouble Destiny would cause when she is alone and unchecked. She recalled some incident of Destiny appearing out of nowhere, scaring the living daylights out of the employees, mostly Lowery.
Speaking of Destiny, the experimented girl wandered off in search of a kitchen. She was hungry and wanted a sandwich. Maybe grilled cheese. As Destiny continues to search for the kitchen, she spotted someone at the corner of the hall. It was an adult woman with whitish blue hair; has heterochromia eyes (orange on the left eye and her right eye is purple), wears a white lab coat with a purple shirt underneath it, an orange skirt, black stockings, and purple heels, and was wearing glasses. She was carrying two objects with both her hands, one was a clipboard and the other was a grilled cheese sandwich, which Destiny was eyeing. The woman was so busy looking at the clipboard in hand that she failed to realize that Destiny was right behind her.
"Ms. Fusion!" A young girl's voice called out to her.
The woman looks up to see Maisie running towards her happily. Smiling, the woman looked at Maisie kindly when she reached her. "Maisie, you know you can call me Victoria."
"I know! I just want to make sure that Iris isn't here." She said, referring to her nanny.
The woman known as Victoria Fusion chuckles at her, "Well, she is not here, so you can call me Victoria."
Maisie grins at her before she notices Destiny behind her. Maisie points at the experimental girl behind Victoria, "Who is that?"
"Who is-wha-AH!" Victoria yelped in surprise after turning her around to see Destiny staring at her blankly. In the process, she accidentally tosses her sandwich out of her plate and in the air along with the clipboard. Luckily, Destiny caught the sandwich, but not the clipboard, as it makes contact with the floor. In addition, without warning, Destiny took a bit of the sandwich with no hesitation, and began eating it.
Victoria and Maisie stared at her with wide eyes and mixed expressions. Maisie was giggling softly, finding Destiny funny. Victoria, on the other hand, has no idea on how this girl with a colorful baggy jacket came from.
"Um...hi?" Victoria greeted Destiny, whose only response was eating the sandwich. "Okay...um...who are you?"
Again, no response, only Destiny continues eating the sandwich, staring blankly at Victoria.
"...Huh, okay..." Victoria mumbles in confusion. Wondering who this girl was and where she came from.
"Destiny!"
Victoria and Maisie turn around to see a woman with black hair, dark blue eyes, and pale skin, coming towards them, but pass through and make her way to the frowning girl, "Dest, how many times have we told you not to wander off?" Destiny responded with a grunt as she continued eating.
Dark responded with a sigh before turning towards Victoria and Maisie, "Ah, hey, sorry if Destiny scared ya two, she tends to appear out of nowhere."
"I could imagine." Victoria said softly, looking at Destiny with a strange look, "I am sorry, but...who are you two exactly? I wasn't aware we had any visitors today?"
"We're here to help my Aunt Claire to visit Mr. Lockwood. By the way, I'm Danica, and the girl eating what I'm guessing was your sandwich is Destiny." She gestured towards the experimental girl, continuing eating the sandwich without a care in the world.
...
"Right...um...I'm Dr. Victoria Vision and...this is..."
"Maisie, Lockwood's granddaughter, right? I saw up at the upper level of that museum room thing." Dark replied, surprising both Victoria and Maisie.
Victoria gave Maisie a look, "You know you were supposed to be studying in your room, right?"
Maisie made a sheepish smile, "I just wanted to see our guests!"
"But still, you should've finished your studies before you could play." Victoria reminded her. Maisie pouts and sticks her tongue out while Victoria gives a light chuckle.
"Anyways, sorry for Destiny giving you a scare, she tends to appear out of nowhere." Dark apologizes, glancing at Destiny, still eating the sandwich, "And sorry about your sandwich."
Victoria looks at her sandwich that Destiny was eating, and gives Dark an assuring smile, "It's all right. I can make a new one." She then looks back at Destiny with a curious look, "If I may, is she born with Alexithymia?"
Dark looks at her in surprise, wondering how she knows that condition Destiny has, "Yeah, as well as Moebius Syndrome, how'd you know?"
"I'm a doctor; I know all syndromes and ailments, which is why I am appointed as Sir Lockwood's doctor and this little gremlin right here." She said, patting Maisie's head gently, earning giggles from the girl as she playfully swatted her hand. "By the way, why is your aunt visiting Sir Lockwood?"
"He said he wanted to help us save the dinosaurs in Jurassic World." Dark said.
Maisie gasped with bright eyes, "WOW! Can I help?!"
"Maisie, please use your inside voice." Victoria said to Maisie gently and then turned towards Claire, "Is it because of Mount Sibo's eruption?"
"Yup, we're trying to get all those dinos out before the eruption. So far, we were able to relocate three species, mainly the Pteranodons, Dimorphodons, and the Mosasaurus have all been transported to Isla Sorna, the rest are being put in cargo ships as we speak."
"And what about the people?" Victoria asked.
"Don't worry, they all safely return to the mainland with no harm, although Jurassic World will have to give them refunds, but all in all, we got this cover."
"That is good news, I do not wish for those magnificent beasts to be destroyed yet again." Victoria said.
"Well, I can assure you, those dinos will be safe and sound." Dark said with a grin.
Maisie smiles at her, "You're like a superhero."
"You don't know half of it." Dark thought in amusement, "You know, you remind me of my sisters, they're the same age as you, and like you. They love dinosaurs."
This made Maisie's smile grow even wider, "Really?! Can I meet them?! Can I please?! Please! Please! Please!" She begged, showing her innocent eyes.
Dark chuckles at her and ruffles her hair, "Maybe one day." She said before realizing that she was supposed to meet up with Claire, "That reminds me, you wouldn't happen to know where Mr. Mills office is?"
Victoria nodded her head, "Of course, I'll show you the way." She said before looking at Maisie, "You better run along now, Maisie, you wouldn't want Ms. Carroll to catch wind that you try to sneak off again."
Maisie pouted, wanting to get to know Dark and ask her about the dinosaurs, but she doesn't want to get in trouble with Iris Carroll. Maisie bids them a good day before running off while Victoria guides Dark and Destiny to Eli's office. However, Dark was thinking about Maisie. For some reason, that girl was giving out a strange aura energy like never before. It is similar to Val's and Celestia's. Maisie wasn't the only one with a strange energy, her adoptive brother, Tobi, also has one, but stronger and it felt like he has the same energy as Destiny. Whatever the case, those two siblings have something in common.
They're both not humans.
Dark knew the moment she saw them. Their auras are the same, strong yet calm. However, Tobi's aura was like Destiny's aura. He could easily take down an army if he wanted to. She'll find out more about Maisie and Tobi Lockwood when she gets back to headquarters, she has to inform Fury about them and get some info of the two siblings.
As they headed to the office, Eli was discussing to Claire that he could send extra help in saving the dinosaurs with the help of a private military that he personally hired. They can help escort the dinosaurs to the private island that Lockwood has bought for them. He said that with their combined ability to locate and capture those dinosaurs would increase ten-fold. The offer sounds tempting, however; Claire knew that he was trying to convince her to agree to his terms. Although it was a tempting offer, Claire needs to know his hidden motive. She asks some questions about what's in return for his kind gesture. He didn't ask much, but he wonders if he could get some DNAs from the dinosaurs for the scientists that he has for research. That is highly unlikely considering that the dinosaur DNAs are very valuable in Jurassic World, and if anyone outside of their facility gets a hold of this, they would likely try to clone illegal and genetically engineered dinosaurs. She can't risk giving him the DNAs, it would be dangerous to fall in the wrong hands.
"Thank you for your offer in assisting us, but like I said before, we have SHIELD to assist us in this matter." Claire assures Eli, who suddenly became tense by her words. "You can tell Sir Lockwood that he has my thanks for his generosity, and will use the island as a backup resource if Isla Sorna becomes unstable."
Claire then notices the looks distraught in eyes, as if he didn't want her to reject the idea of his help. She doesn't know why, but she has a feeling that he was up to something. She can't take any more risks. She already got a text from Owen that the transport vessels for the dinosaurs are on their way, and they are leading the herds to the location of the safe zone. Claire knows that it was a good sign, so they don't need extra help. There was a knock at the door, causing both Claire and Eli to turn and see Victoria entering the room along with Dark, Maisie, and Destiny.
"Good morning, Mr. Mills." Victoria greeted her boss.
"Hello, Dr. Fusion, is everything alright?"
"No, just assist Ms. Grady in finding your office." Victoria answers him.
"Thanks, by the way." Dark thanks Victoria, earning a smile from the woman. "Everything alright here?"
"Everything is fine, Danica, I'm just telling Eli that I decline his help." Claire said, assuring Dark that they don't need help from them. "Owen texted me about the transportation. They're on their way."
"That's good to hear. We should get back and help as much as we can; we have a lot of organizing to do." Dark said to Claire.
Claire nodded her head in agreement before Eli, giving him a kind smile, "Please inform Sir Lockwood that we don't require any assistance, and thank him for his kind generosity."
"I'll...I'll inform him." Eli said to Claire in hesitation.
Claire smiles at him, "Thank you, and have a good day."
With that said and done, Dark, Claire, and Destiny took their leave, saying their farewell to Eli and Victoria. Except for Destiny. She didn't say a word. They exit the manor and enter the car, driving off to the air transportation that Dark uses to get here. Once the vehicle left, Eli was watching them leave at the door. Victoria left to go check on Lockwood, making sure he drinks his medicine, leaving Eli alone at the door. The man was disappointed by the fact that Claire didn't accept his offer. She and Dark had no idea what his true motives were. Eli's phone rang, causing the man to jump a bit before he picked it up from his pocket and answered it.
"Hello?"
:Did she accept the offer?: A male voice spoke through the phone in a cold tone.
Eli shivers, already dreading the moment, "N-No, Mr. Mortem, she did not."
The man on the phone was none other than Uberto Morten, the son of the late Renaldo Mortem. He planned on using the private mercenaries he hired in order to steal some dinosaur DNAs, mostly the hybrid dinosaurs. However, since Claire declines, they can't get to them.
:Change of plan, have Wheatley and his mercenaries go to the restricted area of the park, far from park's security and collect as many species they could find before anyone notices they're gone. They'll rendezvous on the other side of the island. Intel states that they will be at the South Side of the island to gather all the dinosaurs. Make sure his men take the Northside, it is a restricted zone and there's less security. Do I make myself clear?:
Eli nodded his head, "Understood, Mr. Mortem, I'll send Wheatley the order."
:Good...oh, one more thing, if they encounter the girl with brown hair and blue eyes, tell them to bring her alive, and they'll get a triple bonus.:
"Of course."
:And do please tell Dr. Fusion to finish up with the hybrid dinosaurs she is working on, we only have a week before the auctioning.:
"Yes, yes, I understand, I'll tell her right away after I give the orders to Mr. Wheatley." With that said, Uberto hangs up and Eli contacts the man known as Wheatley, "Hello? Mr. Wheatley, change of plan, you and your team have to secretly steal the dinosaurs under Jurassic World's security and bring them here as soon as possible."
I am so sorry for the long wait. I was busy with a stressful amount of paperwork. I don't know if I can post any chapters any time soon. But I'll try my best to do so.
