Computers, Raptors, and Goodbyes

                I tried to press a few things like view, grid reset, then safari lodge on the screen, I thought it was going to kill the raptors, but it said command impossible. Lex suddenly asked me to look at the door, oh no, the raptors are here! We’re doomed! I didn’t know what to do and we just ran off. We ran and tried to go back, but it was locked. Security was working again! I found a guard, took his card and went back. We ran and bumped to Dr. Grant and Mr. Gennaro, he has a plan.
                With Mr. Gennaro’s help I was able to make things work again and he called the ship to go back. Suddenly Dr. Grant was coming inside the room. I asked where the raptors were and he explained how he killed them with poison injected inside an egg and they ate it. Dr. Sattler, Dr. Harding, and Mr. Muldoon came through the door.  They asked me to find the rest of the raptors, I was good with computers now and I found them in the beach.
                Dr. Grant, Dr. Sattler, and Mr. Muldoon  said that people are going to come and bomb the island, so they wanted to find where the rest of the raptors are. Mr. Gennaro, Dr. Grant, Dr. Sattler, and Mr. Muldoon went there while we stayed with Dr. Harding. We had fun with playing the dinosaur noises till they called us. We were very tired and we went inside the helicopter. I said goodbye to the island and watched giant lights explode as we left. We found out grandpa was not here and he was still in the island, well, goodbye grandpa, we’ll miss you…

A Way Out and a New Problem

                                We now, have a problem, a huge rex is in front of Lex and me, and we’re trying to be as quiet as we could. The rex’s tongue moved and found me. It wrapped its tongue around me, and yeah, it was disgusting, I’m now full of dinosaur saliva. Lex pulled me, but she’s not strong enough. The dinosaur let me go and went back again.
                As I was trying to get that sticky spit out Dr. Grant went out to the door and brought good news and a dinosaur. Good news is we can get out since he found a tunne l and an electric car, and the dinosaur is that it was male and we should bring it. So we all went in with Dr. Grant driving and all that sticky spit still everywhere on me.
                It apparently led to the Visitor’s centre. Dr. Grant talked with Dr. Sattler with the walkie-talkie and soon, we were sent to the Control Room with Dr. Wu. Yes, like always there was another problem, Lex and I are in the Control Room alone. I need to try and make the computers working again because the raptors are about to come here soon. So, actually, are we safe?? 

Finding a Way Out

                When I woke up, it was early in the morning and i found a baby stegosaur. Lex and I patted it, and soon Dr. Grant woke up. We went out and decided we should hurry and go back to the control Room. I remembered there was an inflatable raft in the shed where we slept. We went back and found a map to a small jetty, tranquillizer darts and guns, and the inflatable raft.
                We went to the jetty and the rex was there! We tried to be as quiet as possible but Lex coughed and it woke up. We hurried into the raft and when the dinosaur woke up and tried to chase us. We hit it with a tranquillizer dart and Dr. Grant rowed till he was tired. Soon we saw a pair of dilophosaurs in different gender, a proof that the dinosaurs were breeding.
                We heard noises, and it turns out to be a waterfall. We fell all the way down and we hit the water. Dr. Gant caught me and we found Lex near the tail of the rex. We got out of there as fast as we could. We went through a path leading to a metal door behind the waterfall. Dr. Grant went in while we waited.

Finding a Safe Place

                When I regained my consciousness, I was in a tree; there was no sign of the tyrannosaur now. At least, that’s good news. I went down of the tree, and screamed Lex’s name and suddenly she answered me when she was on the mud. Then we called Dr. Grant’s name then, he climbed down a tree and met us. We all agreed to go back to the control room, and we saw Ed Regis standing still near a tree. A young tyrannosaur appeared and attacked Ed Regis. We were scared and ran till Lex was very tired.
                I thought that we were in the tyrannosaurs enclosure and talked to Dr. Grant about it. Then we followed the sensors until we knew we were in the sauropods’ enclosure. We saw this building and decided to stay in it since we thought it was safe enough. We rested in that building and we all slept till the next day keeping in mind that the raptors were still out there.

The Scary Tyrannosaur

                After Dr. Grant knew they were breeding, it turns out there were more dinosaurs we were expecting. Dr. Sattler and Mr. Gennaro wanted to stay with the stegosaur, so Lex, Dr. Grant, Dr. Malcolm, Ed Regis, and I got back in the car and headed towards the Safari Lodge. On our way, I didn’t expect that we suddenly stopped and it was night already. Lex borrowed the goggles and they were night vision goggles. We were near the ocean and we Lex saw young raptors in a ship! We needed to report the Control Room about this, but the link was not working. There was lightning and started to rain, and suddenly the adult tyrannosaur was there!
                I couldn’t believe it! Ed Regis left Lex and I in the car when he realized there was no power and the adult tyrannosaur was coming. Lex and I were so scared. I asked her to shut the door but she was too scared. The tyrannosaur started to take the car up and down in his jaws and put it down again until Lex fell. Now, I’m all alone in the car. Soon, the dinosaur threw the car, with me in it to a tree. I lost consciousness.

The Tour of Jurassic Park

                I’m so excited! The tour of the park’s about to start, I’m sure it’s going to be amazing. Ed Regis the park warden took us to a road under the Control Centre. I was really surprised when 2 land-cruisers arrived with no drivers in them. Then, Ed Regis explained that it was run by electricity so it would not go away from the road. The scientists and Mr. Gennaro went in the first car, and Ed Regis, Lex and I went on the second one. I found that there was a computer, walkie-talkie and a strange-looking pair of goggles.
                Then, the car started moving. The computer inside said a lot of things, which were not so important until we arrived at the part of the hypsilophodontids. 6 unusual animals appeared out of the grass after a loud noise was made from the speakers. Then, we continued to Jungle River where we saw dilophosaurs that could spit to paralyze its prey and eat it. When we arrived to the triceratops, it was not moving. Lex suddenly opened the window and screamed.”Hey, stupid dinosaurs. Move!”  Mr. Regis quickly closed the window and warned us not to open it again. The car moved on, we were in the pplace where the tyrannosaur is! I can’t wait to actually see the real thing! When it came, I couldn’t believe how large it was, it’s gigantic, about 6 meters tall. A goat was there, the Tyrannosaur bit its neck and it went away.

                We were going to see the sauropods now, the first thing we saw were hadrosaurs and apatosaurs, they were eating the plants. I noticed something smaller running there, it was a young Velociraptor! We told Dr. Malcolm immediately. When the car moved on to the south, we saw a stegosaur next to a Jeep. We all went out and the vet, Dr. Harding was mending it. Lex said theplace was really smelly. The adults are talking why the dinosaurs became sick, and Dr. Grant said they were breeding!

The Control Room

                Now that we all reached the Control room, we all stared at the screens and all the computers, It was really amazing. Then I realized, the fat man, whose name was Nedry sat back somewhere in one of the seats. John Arnold, the chief engineer there sat on the chair and showed us the entire computer and how it works. There was a map of the whole island and it had blue lines on the map. “It showed the movements of all the animals,” said Dr. Arnold. Then the man who was angry at grandpa, called Mr. Gennaro asked where the tyrannosaur was, Dr. Arnold pressed some keys and a dot appeared showed somewhere on the map. When they said that there were 238 animals, Dr. Arnold pressed more keys and numbers and a lot of weird dinosaur names appeared on the screen. The computers were able to tell how many dinosaurs are.  More keys were pressed and there was a graph. After we’re all done in the Control Room, we prepared for the big tour.
