"It's ok...it's ok." Darius said to calm Kenji down, while not taking his eyes off the Raptors. "We're all ok..." They were most definitely not ok.
The Raptors hissed and roared at him, taking slow steps towards them. Hunter knew that their curiosity is the only thing that is stalling the Raptors.
"Kenji, those bones, check for a Raptor skull." Darius told him. There is no way in heaven or earth there would be a velociraptor skull in the paddock. Kenji had looked down at the bones and back to Darius, his voice was like an exhale of breath.
"What!?"
"In a video game I—" Darius was interrupted again, "You want to talk about video games now!?" Kenji had been cowering against the metal doors the entire time. Running wouldn't be an option, it will only tell the Raptors he's prey.
Blue had hissed at them again, Darius slipped off a bone and landed on his back. He started to push himself back as the Raptors were getting too close for comfort.
Darius had made it to the gate while Kenji continued to scream out for help. The Raptors were getting too close. Hunter is not letting anyone die in his presence.
"Hunter!" They heard Brooklynn scream out when Hunter jumped over the railing and in front of the Raptors. It definitely surprised them, they flinched back and then realized it was another human.
Delta got a little too low to the ground for Hunters liking so he snapped his fingers at her and yelled, "Hey, Delta, don't you dare think about it!" he commanded.
Hunter realized the snapping wasn't as effective as the clicker his Uncle uses, so he did his best to imitate the clicker with his tongue. "Dude, what are you doing!?" Kenji screamed out from behind him.
"Just trust me—hey!" Echo had snapped at him. Blue was the most curious, but the other three were ready to pounce at any moment. Just before they pounced, the paddock lights abruptly turned on. The sudden flash blinded the kids and the Raptors.
Hunter heard Roxie yell out to the Raptors and he could barely see some meat be thrown to the ground behind the Raptors. All the Raptors expect Blue had gone for the meat. Hunter stared directly into her eyes as Roxie yelled at the three of them to get out of the paddock.
Hunter was too far from the gate to run and he knew he could easily be crushed from the closing barrier. So he had to think of something quick.
Darius and Kenji were yanked out of the paddock as Blue ran towards Hunter, he knew she'd either pounce or tackle him, so he had to perfectly time his dodge in order to survive.
She jumped up so Hunter rolled behind her and before she turned he had ran towards her and used her back to spring himself up onto the horizontal bars. Roxie reached her out from above him, but he heard Blue growl so he let me instincts take over and ejected himself off the barrier onto the ledge of the walkway, his feet were dangling below for any of the Raptors to jump up and grab.
Hunter could've been yanked down if it wasn't for Roxie quickly running over to the walkway and pulling him up from the ledge. Hunter noticed he was breathing a little too much, he guessed his body was on fire knowing he could've been turned into dessert.
"How did you do that?" Roxie asked surprised and helping him up to his feet. "A lot of practice back home..." Hunter was more in shock at what he himself did. He could've told her exactly why but she was already running down to where the others are.
Hunter looked down at the Raptors who were frustrated at the failed hunt. He then made his way down the steps and sat on the last one. He heard Roxie yelling at the others, mostly Kenji, so he waited.
