~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chapter 17: The Ultima Hybrid DNA Pathogen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

/Fade out to Isla Sorna at night, 4 miles from the desert basin. A total of 4 hunters make their way past the faded enclosure of the Pyramid….as Robert Muldoon, Owen Grady, Claire and Diego enter the main hall to the communications station. They are on their way inward, passing a buzzing computer terminal that roars with commands relating to ancient experiments. The Sun beats down hard in all directions, as they begin to inspect each of the Embryonics labs and witness what went on down here. They know for a fact something horrific awaits them, before they even arrive on Site C.*

/It's living inside the pyramid now, just like the original song that played. "When they ran the extraction sequence again, and Hammond stared back through time more than sixty-five thousand centuries…." It was happening again, the horrors had returned. There was a giant flying reptile monster inside these walls, and worse yet, it was still hunting Muldoon from earlier….it had a keen eye to stop each of the Hunters from ever getting to the helicopter. A monster much worse than a Pteranadon, which had been keeping its eyes targeted directly on them…for more than 4 days straight. The unnerving presence quaked in the moonlight, as they struggled to keep ahead of its cast shadow.*

/The high jungle canopy spun into the undergrowth of the rotunda, including the palm trees and sequoias which littered the scenery around Dusk. There was a quiet, chilling ambience in Isla Sorna that could be felt and heard throughout the trees and surrounding lake. It was a time none would forget.*

Muldoon: "Get inside the Pyramid now, Owen….I'm going to need your help lifting the cable."

*Suddenly a huge column twists, falling over sideways. A large, dark presence enters the Labyrinth…making their way indoors. The spectacle unfolds throughout the rotunda in a grisly display of arbitrage, as a new pair of Desert Velociraptors and a sydo Pteranadon enter the side door and destroy all of the artifacts standing nearby. A large panel erupts in an explosion, as several ancient scrolls unfold showing a native dialect from the prime period of Pharoah. Owen stares at the main side-panel that leads to the power conduits and tears it open, seemingly indifferent to the chaos in the hall. He reaches out and brings a large, single side-arm cannon which extends out into the moon lit corridor with frenetic indifference. Then more than 10 shots are fired off, destroying many of the chambers in the room as well as the windows. The two velociraptors are then knocked back through a pair of windows, which shatters as the rest of the main hall explodes in a visage of debris and dust storms.*

Desert Velociraptor: "RAAAAAAAAAWRR! SNARRRLLLL! ROOOOOOAAWRRR!" ((The Velociraptor rears back on its hind legs, and tears open Owen's right arm slashing it with complete fury. Right then, he shoots off more than 30 paralyzing darts into the Velociraptor's left leg…which pushes the animal to instantly collapse. Owen runs to the scaffolding, yet in the meantime much of the rotunda crumbles and begins to disappear. There is nowhere to hide, as Owen runs for the diamond crescent door in a rush.))

Owen: "That's right Blue, come on….Look up, don't ignore the warning signs…..Rush those two velociraptors! There's another one coming in from the right-hand window, let's move…"

Blue: "RAAOOOOARR! RAAAAAAAAAAAAWWGRR! SKRAAWRRR!" ((They watch in astonishment as Blue claws the Velociraptor Pack leader in the face, and tosses them back over the Pyramid's edge. Each one goes hurdling towards the furnace, as the temperature begins to rise to an extreme measure.))

Diego: "Robert, we need to activate that panel now….It's the only way to start the radio signal!"

Muldoon: "Quiet, Diego….Give me a minute while our strategy comes into focus. Look alive Claire. Owen, hop to it and smash open the left panel over there in Room 3…..We need to restore power to the station. There's a total of fifteen Desert Velociraptors waiting outside near the basin, I count that as one of our biggest challenges here…..Get rid of them, and Owen….Get in there and bloody secure the gun!"

*Suddenly, the other pair of Velociraptors run into the main hall. They begin stalking Muldoon and Owen around in a counter-clockwise motion. Just then, Claire shoots the ceiling which opens up a freezing burst of liquid nitrogen to explode into the corridor. Owen lifts up the cable that re-connects the Radio antenna so a signal can be sent out, and the two velociraptors explode as the spikes crush them*

Owen: "We did it….The fifth Velociraptor is retreating. I think that's 7 down.."

Muldoon: "Great work. Forget that, Owen…Get the bloody cable lifted, you know, the cable for the gears and get it moving now!"

Diego: "Great work hermano, and Robert I just shut the gears off…Will that get the Radio to switch on?"

Muldoon: "As long as Owen lifted the dam cable…Get to it, I knew we could count on you."

*Finally, Owen moves Blue to the side and hoists the Cable on a large pulley inside the 600-foot high pyramid. A loud sound erupts as the Radio station begins to send out signals again and broadcasts.*

Muldoon: "Alright Diego, we need to get the hell out of here. Let me call the operator, and bloody tell them to send the Helicopter before someone here loses touch with reality…."

Owen: "That's fine by me….Can we make sure it's the Premium chopper?"

Muldoon: "They're selling us an original, InGen Grade A Reconnaissance Helicopter and that's all. We don't get the Ritz Carlton here, we just get a proper Helicopter to take the Mosasaurus and that other predator with us back to the mainland so we never need to return to this hellish Island again…"

Claire: "Predator!? You mean the tyrannosaurus?"

Diego: "Yeah, he might Claire…after all anywhere is safer than here.."

Muldoon: "Perhaps that's what I bloody meant. Site C would be a better Island in the end for them….Isla Sorna has nearly no real wildlands left. A lot of it has been destroyed by the Nile virus and other toxins….While the Island is still habitable, it's not good for the Dinosaurs.."

Owen: "Umm, even if it's a better home for them….I just don't know if I trust this idea. We need to lure out that Megalodon though….So yes, just call the freaking Helicopter and lets get out of here."

Diego: "I agree with Owen here, Roberto….We need to make our exit from this place…There's still 8 desert Raptors waiting outside in the sand for their next meal…"

Muldoon: "They can wait for us all day or night long, I don't care….As long as we take the embryos to that radiation chamber 4 clicks south of here, and get rid of them all. I'm sending out a distress beacon."

*Muldoon fires up the radio and begins the broadcast.*

Muldoon over the radio transmission: "Hello, InGen Harvest Master? Yeah, copy that…This is Rober...Muldoon. I am a part of the surviving InGen task force, which left Isla Nublar behind after narrowly avoiding death the first time. I am here with my squad of 4, that's correct Harvest….Copy that, I have Mr. Grady and Claire here with me, along with my friend Diego who saved my life…"

InGen Harvest Master over the radio: "Copy that, Muldoon….How are you!? We thought you were dead, for sure but yet we all found it a bit strange we never recovered a body. I mean, I debated it with Javier here for weeks….I don't get how the hell no body of yours was recovered, if you were dead…."

Muldoon over the radio transmission: "Bloody hell, can we just get on with it!? Send a rescue Helicopter that is at least 200 feet long, as we have massive cargo that includes the Mosasaur. And no, I don't know anyone else on the team here….We are on Site B, aka Isla Sorna and this is the first time we've been on this Island. As to how I survived, I raised those raptors….so when it looked like I was killed, I basically played tag with the "Raptor" leader and Diego saw all this take place in front of him….I got some severe cuts on the places that matter, including my head….But I got out of there barely alive, that's why there was never a body….It wasn't because they tore my husk to pieces.."

InGen Harvest Master over the radio: "I'd always kind of wondered about that….Ok, we're sending the Reconnaissance Chopper just North of your position. Is Sara Harding ok? What became of her?"

Muldoon over the radio transmission: "I don't bloody know who Sara Harding is….Is that the woman who was a daughter/niece of Gerry Harding? No, there's no Sara out here at all….Gerry thought I was dead. I couldn't tell him the truth since nobody'd believe the story, plus that's why there was no body found…"

InGen Harvest Master over the radio: "Understood…you definitely are all full of surprises. We're sending the Helicopter with extra Hunters equipment, it will be there within 0400 hours…Over and out."

Muldoon over the radio transmission: "O.k, well thank you. Good god, just send the bloody thing already I was about to say. And yes, I have huge cuts still on my arms and chest….I am positive I'm alive though."

Diego: "Watch out esse, it's coming through the glass on the bridge! (Diego shoots off 4 bola snare blasts towards the 8 Velociraptors stalking them near the front entrance of the pyramid.)

Diego: "What happened here? That huge cylinder there Robert, what does it mean…..What were they doing with this pyramid here…" (He points towards the huge carvings and written symbols on a wall.))

Muldoon: "It looks like they were trying to experiment with a time rift of some kind…..My god, Owen…..For how many years has this been ongoing on Isla Sorna?!"

Owen: "I don't have a clue…but evidently the denizens of this Island knew way more than us! It seems the actual Incan societies here and Mayans, were trying to fool around with time-travel here….Maybe Diego, all this is part of the horrible secret dealing with Site C….)

Muldoon: "If they were trying to mess with the time-space continuum, than whatever was turned loose on Site C is the least of our concerns here….It looks like to me Diego, that the owners of this Island….Whoever lived here way before us, controlled time itself and setup the columns that dot the walls of this Pyramid….Almost like they knew I would be sent here, and Roland would request for the embryos to all be destroyed…."

Claire: "If we destroy all the embryos, will that end the threat on Site B?" (Claire says in alarm as she shoots off her rocket launcher, destroying 4 of the raptors and blowing up the bridge that leads deep into the main sanctum for the pyramid. A High tinge of concern is dotted across her face, realizing what a terrifying secret was buried here.)

Owen: "Claire, that's not the only problem…."

Diego: "Somehow I doubt that hermana, mi chica…This whole place is part of Los Cinco Muertas. If the Hybrid Dinosaurs are loose on Site C now esse, it's not long before they finally invade Site B…."

Muldoon: "Bloody hell you are right, for sure….They've been doing it all the way along by moving the Hybrid Pterosaurs through a hidden back-channel into the Sorna Harbor Shipping depot, no doubt by using things like that abandoned monorail…."

Muldoon: "I can't believe we never noticed this before….Sorna has been hiding some terrible projects along the outside perimeter…."

Owen: "No doubt, there are small links here & there… (he points to Pyramid's massive arrow like room pointing into the glass.) …that connect Site B, to whatever is living on the secret Isle of death, Site C…"

Desert Velociraptor: "RAAAAAAAWRR! GRAAAAAAAAWRRR ROAARR!" (It cuts open Owen's arm.)

((Owen fires off 4 direct carbine Napalm rounds at the walkway above, crashing the whole cave into the floor below. The 5 raptors finally spring to right and left of the Pyramid's massive 4 way intersection, and just then the two columns shake loose…killing all 5 of the raptors as the structure begins to tumble.))

Muldoon: "There…. (He sticks all 7 of the Embryos into the radiation chamber, instantly killing them.) See that DNA blip that popped up on screen, Diego?" (Muldoon points at the flashing red cursor…which shows the code for a "Hybrid-Pathogen" project…being built by Biosyn…for a red triceratops skull.)

Muldoon: "That's part of the problem that got us in this mess in the first place…" (He shouts, as he hits the escape key and deletes the program. Then he tosses 4 grenades into the office, destroying all the computers inside as well as the remaining 3 Velociraptors who had climbed up the scaffolding.)

Owen: "You can say that again, I hope we can lift out of here before noon…"

Diego: "Don't have to tell me twice….Let's get out of here, now! Get them to send the main helicopter to this desert enclosure."

*Just then, the Pyramid began to collapse where they were sending the radio SOS at night. Enormous pillars fell over and boulders began to tumble down, destroying the west and east entrances. There was literally no way of escaping this nightmare, and so Diego as well as Owen shot their carbine rifles at the Incan statue near the North Gate. As they did so, it exploded creating a corridor that went straight down the center in 2 forks from the main road….one going left, and the other right. They each filled up with water right on time….Carrying all 4 of the hunters directly out the ancient Mouth of the massive pyramid 5 meters to the north, as they were miraculously brought to safety. Finally, they were on their way out of Isla Sorna….they were about to travel to Site C to officially meet Malcolm.*

*On the edge of Isla Muerta, the rain pours down in long sheets of glass. It glistens in the noon-day sun as our intrepid explorer party enters the main tundra which leads up to the Quetzalcoatlus nest. The days and nights grew colder, with moss and foliage outcropping that evened out over the horizon. Dr. Grant, Billy Brennan, Sara Harding and Anne Carter are astonished by the thick underbrush and trees which dot the landscape of these ruins. It is utterly clear they are in a new awakening, as the surrounding environment speaks secrets of the Incan jungle long since deserted. There is a feeling of accomplishment and hidden reservation, as our explorers begin to enter the main basin of the labyrinth. The long rusted corridors have long been left behind from a bygone era, that was studied by science. Inside the main doors of the Indo-Raptor's ceremonial worship site, you see a long stretch of hallways with various computers humming and buzzing to life. Harding and Anne Carter approach one of the eastern most terminals, and flip on the screen only to notice something truly disturbing. It is a re-enactment, a video which plays back to show that for so long since time had settled in…they were not alone in this jungle./

Sara Harding: "What is that? Here, let me play back the media file….Oh my…god…"

*Video Recording plays back: Dr. Johan Tramare: "I just got into the Island interior, and realized how far off the beaten path we've come. This is truly a frightening place and amazing discovery, especially for me as a paleontologist. It is the first time I've seen Ceremonies re-enacted in such visceral ways….The ancient Incans who lived in this Shrine beyond time, it is clear they worshiped these Indo-Raptors. They saw them as the epitome of civilization and courage in all respects…I must inform Steingarten immediately so Biosyn can confiscate this site." Dr. Henry Wu: "Johan, is this their original habitat? Are you claiming that this ancient burial ground….this place is the original location where the Indo-Raptors come from? Professor, run the Ceremonial extraction on the designated target. *a large laser suddenly opens wide and begins shining down on each of the 4, Incan columns inside the temple.* I need to see if this works effectively….if it does, we won't need Nima anymore after all."*

* Playback continues: "Dr. Johan Tramare: "Dr. Wu, I think Joe Rossiter will want to know about this…the algorithm in the specimen has had an abnormal reaction. –static-static— It's….waking up….What the hell is that…..Oh my god.. ((video feed plays as the columns are toppled over during the night, as all 4 walls in the ruins begin to crumble.)) That's not supposed to happen…it must be in error"

Ultima Saurus: "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWRR! GRAWWW!" *Suddenly, the massive beast shakes loose and topples over the 2 columns into the Balcony. The doctors run for the exit, as Johan and Dr. Wu attempt to exit the chamber as quickly as possible. Debris is falling in all directions, as they continue to watch when the tower within the Temple begins to crumble into the ground.* -a large piece of the ruins explodes and topples over.- -STATIC-static-the camera goes out…feed cuts off.—

Anne Jones Carter: "Dear god…..Biosyn has an Ultima Saurus inside this set of ruins….They must have one of those hideous creatures ready to kill, already deployed on this Island!"

Dr. Alan Grant: "I was going to say, that sounds awfully close to the mark…..Johan helped him."

Sara Harding: "Wow….I've never seen anything like it before. If this is all true, we'll need to let Malcolm know immediately…..I wonder if he ever found Gerry Harding.."

Billy Brennan: "Forget that, Sara….I'm sorry about your father or uncle….But if we don't get to the bottom of what this pathogen is, this….horrifying creature, Ultima Saurus, we'll have a lot more to worry about than just a few non-working computers or people getting killed…."

Dr. Alan Grant: "I see precisely what you mean, Billy….This is not a good sign at all."

Sara Harding: "Not only that, it tells us all we need to know about DX…..looks like that may be what created this….thing, and we have very little time left to find out how to destroy it…"

Anne Jones Carter: "Then we better move quickly, and get to Ian now before reinforcements show up…" (Anne quietly presses the valve switch on the right. She had been eyeing it for several hours. It opens up an elevator which rises to the top of the Indo-Raptor Burial site, and slides outward a secret opening. The column and ancient statue of the Indo-Raptor suddenly swings wide open….Something horrific is calling to them within the ruins, something better left buried and untouched.)

/The corridor opens to a massive hallway, lined on both sides by humming ancient machines. Most of these computers, which still display the DNA samples on the front panel showcase different Dinosaur experiments. One of them, labeled the Dunkleosteus and Nanuqsaurus stares chillingly from the front monitor back into each of their faces as they walk around between the screens of these ruins. Dr. Grant and Billy can scarcely believe their eyes as they gaze upon the chillingly real Viro Pterosaur genome rotating on the Incan table. This place is a haunted mausoleum of experiments gone wrong, with many monsters so horrifying it was a wonder that the curators called them Dinosaurs. As they looked on through the open archway, suddenly Dr. Harding got wind of something very chilling nearby.*

Zoha Indo-Raptor Master: "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAWRR! GRAAAAAAAAAWRRR! SNAARRLLL!" ((The Indo-Raptor suddenly calls for its 2 Indo-Raptor or Super Raptor Leader allies, glaring with a menacing stare at Billy and Dr. Harding. The 3 Velociraptors instinctively fan out, encircling both of them in an array of menacing claws and razor sharp teeth.))

*The Indo-Raptor leaps to the top of the column, then slashes at Dr. Grant, splitting his leg open and taking a large chunk out to showcase its ferocity. It then leaps on the table, knocking everything over and destroying the second column. Billy fires 4 napalm rounds into its stomach, as suddenly 5 rounds of bullets come flying in from the other direction knocking him over. Miles had found them and he was intent on taking command of the Raptors to finish the group off./

Miles: "Dr. Grant, don't you know better than to play with fate? This is our most precious holy site in this portion of these grounds….It's where the raptors, including the Indo-Raptors once had worship sites. It's where they come to hunt and play!"

((Miles shouts, as suddenly he shoots off a heavy armada of electric bombs to begin destroying the ceiling around the Temple walls. He realizes if he can trap them under the boulders, the massive Indo-Raptors will descend and soon leave nothing alive at the bottom of the pile.))

*Miles holds up a crescent shaped button and presses it, forcing the Indo-Raptors to turn into cold killing machines as they begin to descent upon the 4 explorers with reckless eternal resolve. Alan shoots back at Miles with a semi-auto hand gun, nailing him four times in the arm. Just then, the enclave above begins to cave in as the second Indo-Raptor gets furious, and begins running along the walls sideways towards where Alan and Carter are standing. Dozens of gunfire shots ring out, as Indo-Raptor number 3 suddenly cracks the main staircase winding its way up to the darkened Ancient temple window at the top. Billy runs for the balcony outside the ruins, and fires off a flurry of concussion grenades in the direction of the stairwell beneath the Indo-Raptor number five. He dives through the east column, just as Indo-Raptor number seven bursts into the wall and tears off part of Anne Carter's arm in front of him. At that stage, he realizes they are inside a partly Mayan death-trap and he bolts to the west most staircase. The floor beneath their feet begins to twist, as each panel flips over one by one. Some kind of switch must have been depressed, Billy realizes. Those panels are all going to flip and kill all four of them, unless he figures out the answer to the puzzle first. He then scours the three most secure corners in the room, on the West side first. Dr. Grant and Billy begin pressing all panels they can see within the structure. A large computer screen rises up in the middle. Sara Harding hits the switch to turn it on.*

Alan: "What….what is that? What did you find? (Grant shoots off his cattle prod, destroying the East Island under where Miles was standing. He shoots it again, causing most of the wall to start falling off….as the debris runs in and crushes Indo-Raptor 4 and Indo-Raptor 5 beneath a thousand pounds of concrete…Right as things are getting really tense, Billy then unloads 4 grenades destroying the room.*

Sara Harding: "I found some kind of ancient trap….Right here in the midst of this Indo-Raptor ceremony room….Hey Miles, if that's all you care about are your pet projects….Then feast on this."

*Sara then suddenly flips on the main panel, as the Mayan carvings in the ceiling begin to rotate around in a circular motion. The entire chamber is starting to collapse, as enormous flaming spikes descend from the ceiling. The computer had activated a trap….and all 5 of the Super Raptors were about to be dragged into it. Just as Billy's leg is getting chewed off, with the calf now being hallway between the Indo-Raptor's massive jaws…he bolts it down the balcony on the western wall. Carter and Billy trip over several statues, each more than 10 ft in diameter and rush down the hall at full velocity. The cliffs are beginning to fall apart as the Cave In erupts and destroys much of the walkway to exit this area. As they quickly sprint to the diagonal corridor, Dr. Grant follows them and zooms up the steep incline. The spikes come rushing in at that same moment, destroying the Column in the middle of the chamber and quickly tearing apart all five of the Indo-Raptors who were about to kill them. As this occurs, Sara Harding's right arm gets partly trapped in the spikes. Her whole shoulder on the right is bloody and torn open, yet she was alive. That was now five of the Indo-Raptors dead, with the seventh one outside./

Alan: "That's it Billy, we're about to be killed here….as there is still one Ascodan Velociraptor and one Indo-Raptor inside this cave. We need to get the hell away from here, very soon…"

Miles: "Dr. Grant, I am done with you. You have caused all my troubles, for several weeks now. You need to be destroyed and sent to the bottom of the river, I will make you pay for what happened to my friend Yoder….and now Oscar too. They were good men. Honest men, who just needed to make a living!"

((Miles starts shooting off his AK-47 at Grant, firing several bullets into his shoulder. He was furious at how many times they had disappointed him. Then he flew to the balcony in the western hall, shooting his firearm at more than 7 moving targets inside the ceiling. They were each clearly marked with the label "PROTOTYPE X: Factor Cell" and as each one explodes, the entire ceiling falls downward towards where Billy, Dr. Grant and Harding took refuge. They split off and rolled out of the way, just as a huge rotating spike came plunging out from the awning above. Miles kept on shooting towards the 4 hunters, especially Anne as he attempted to activate the 2 Indo-Raptor Generals to stalk them down the hall. The bullets fly past their heads, as the huge rotating column in the center splits in half….Out walks a massive pair of Indo-Raptors that have a chrome blue color surrounding their entire body and skeleton.*

Indo-Raptor Hunter Leader: "GRAAAAAAAAAWRR! RAAWWRRR!" (It screeches at the top of its lungs, and climbs up the column four clicks to the right. It knocks Alan Grant off the top, as he begins to scale the platforms in the center. Grant and Billy leap past the third platform, and quietly shimmy around the outer shell of the rock structure. As they climb faster, the pair of Indo-Raptors chase after them…while the ceiling begins to crumble. The passage below gives way to a giant dark void, and as the floor disappears finally Billy signals to Anne to move to higher ground.)

Billy: "Jump, hang on to the edge! Jump when I say to do it…"

Alan: "Is this it Billy? Is this the center of the Indo-Raptor Burial shrine?"

Sara Harding: "If it is, then we're inside one of the oldest structures on this infernal rock…I'm ready to get the hell out of here as soon as possible." (She screams, as the Indo-Raptor bites her ankle…nearly tearing Harding from the column and dropping her 40 feet to the cold marble floor below.)

Billy: "We don't need to hang around to find out, that's for sure…" (Billy fires his gun into the ceiling, near the perimeter, where suddenly dozens of large rocks tumble out and trap the 4 of them from being anywhere near the final Indo-Raptor. Miles is trapped on the other side, shouting in anger. Billy then fires two M4 gatling gun rounds at the Statue straight above him, which causes the floor underneath the set of 3 columns to collapse….The final Indo-Raptor slashes angrily at Alan Grant, cutting half his elbow off….right before it plunges into the abyss and falls straight down into the enclave of spikes below.)

/The seventh final Indo-Raptor, knocks Sara backwards off a balcony…as she goes straight through a Mastodon skeleton and giant Ceremonial worship chair. The thick marble rocks fly off, as it nearly breaks her back in half and she collapses to the base to catch her breath. Five Bola snares are shot off from Sara's gun, and then 18 shots pelt it from Anne Carter's M4 carbine. Finally, the Indo-Raptor stumbles back, loses its footing and falls down the abyss to its death….Sara slowly climbs back up the ledge.*

Alan: "Guess they won't ever have that on the tour, will they Billy?"

Billy: "That's right Dr. Grant they sure won't….this shrine. (He listens in silence.) This place is older than any of us….Who knows how long they have planned this for….But somehow I doubt the traps we saw in this room, are the last time we'll run into the Indo-Raptor pack…"

Anne Jones Carter: "Quite correct you are. Come now, the Quetzalcoatlus nest….Is dead ahead, just past the Icy cliff side. That leads deep into the underground volcano, and then…..the magma river.."

Sara Harding: "There's literally a giant magma river here!? Of the Volcano ruins?"

Anne Jones Carter: "Of course, Sara….Ian knew that well. There was only 1 small volcano on Isla Sorna for the most part. Where we are presently, there's around 3 massive Island shaped volcanoes….Larger than 9 football fields….After all didn't I warn you!? This is no place for civilization…"

Anne Jones Carter: "You're in Isla Muerta now, and this here….Site C…..This place is pretty much the roughest Island you've ever seen….That's how I know it is the home of the Quetzalcoatlus…"

Billy: "What do you mean by that? ….We could make a shortcut for it, through the cliff side channel near the bridge….Just climb straight up."

Alan Grant: "He makes an excellent point there…These drawings on the computer, they show some kind of terrible code is found here. That code, whatever it is…it is linked to the Ultima Saurus and the testing chamber for Genomes.."

Sara Harding: "If I speed up my climb, I should make it to the top in about 2 hours….Enough time to be ahead of the Quetzalcoatlus when it goes to scavenge for the nest…"

Anne Jones Carter: "That won't help you here, friend….Welcome to Isla Muerta, the Death Island."

/Camera pans out to Isla Muerta at night, as two long enclosures along the south of the lake front show an array of Dinosaurs quietly escaping the research camp. 40 kilometers east of there, at the official Dig Site…..Harvest and Biosyn have found something….Something awfully terrifying and chilling, located inside an underground chamber. Thick fog and rain continue to pour down everywhere.*

Jenkins: "Is that what I think it is, Harvest? Looks like I need to call Eli Mills back in…." (He motions to the right.)

Harvest: (Nods) "It sure is, sir. That's the CRAY XMP dual processor mainframe. It was the last computer terminal Ray Arnold used, before they shut the feeding camps offline. (The crane lifts the huge dual-core machine from the set of arches 30 meters down. Each part of the CRAY is now split in 4 pieces.) That is correct sir, that's Arnold's laptop….And those are his glasses on the chair."

Eli Mills: "Ahhh, good work Jenkins. This is likely the last place they saw him alive before the hurricane.."

Jenkins: "What the hell is it doing at the bottom of this giant, empty rock cavern? On Site C, given we've been stationed here for years…."

Harvest: "Because look at this….this is what Miles wanted I think. (He hits the key on the keyboard.) It's an algorithm code….for a genome that is more than 60,000 centuries old. PROTOTYPE: Ivisio Mastadon, and Armiger Rex. These are the Hybrid Pathogens for the original Armiger Rex and Trykosaurus."

Harvest: "Each of these Hybrids contain the DX compound….with the Trykosaurus containing both Tyrannosaur, Ankylosaurus and Triceratops DNA. Each of them, especially Armiger Rex…is what Dodgson was hunting for to obtain the codes."

Eli Mills: "Good, that sounds good….The Armiger Rex is a big breakthrough. What's the point of this?"

Harvest: "Ask Henry Wu's assistant. The point is, we almost have a complete DNA list now for the Ultima Saurus….And Dodgson almost has the computer finished in order to build it and the cure."

Eli Mills: "Oh good….Then we aren't wasting our time then."

Jenkins: "Doesn't look that way now…"

Harvest: "That's right….I found you hybrid DNA for the biggest Predator today. The Pathogen has been located. Pretty soon we will have the entire DNA mapping, so Dodgson can re-activate Ultima Saurus."

To be continued.*
