nick looks highly confused, but not owen and i. "go!" i yell. owen pushes past nick and we began running for the door we entered through. nick is slow and lags behind. suddenly he stops, glimpsing the outline of Indominus rex through the trees. Turning, he runs back the other way. owen, ellis, and i skid to a halt as the i. rex emerges from the jungle and blocks our escape. it bellows forth a mighty roar. we turn and run back the way they came, but ellis isn't fast enough. Indominus snatches him up in her clawed hands. he screams. the door begins to slowly close as owen and i run towards it, with the huge predator gaining on us from behind. "shit!" he yells. we run through. workers rush around in a wild panic, trying to escape, as indominus gets halfway through before the door closes on her. her head and one arm stick free and she snaps her jaws at us. we runs and slide underneath the crane, where we lay hiding on our stomachs. indominus pushes the door off of its track with the servos whining in protest and then steps out from inside the paddock, freed. we watch, wide-eyed, as indominus stomps over to where nick is sitting in front of a pickup truck. she walks around the left side as nick, mustering his courage, peers around the right front bumper. he whimpers and sobs as he sees the huge tail disappearing around the rear of the truck, then turns back around, trying to hide. he clutches and kisses a crucifix. suddenly the truck is violently knocked aside, flying through the air and crashing noisily to the ground upside-down, leaving the supervisor sitting out in the open completely exposed. he, owen, and i look at one another for a long moment. suddenly, the jaws snap down, grabbing nick and lifting him up out of view. acting quickly, owen draws a survival knife as we roll over on our backs. reaching up, he grabs the crane's fuel line and hacks desperately at it with his blade until he finally slices through it, rupturing it and spewing gasoline down onto himself and i. Hurriedly, he smears it all over himself in an effort to mask his scent as i do the same. having finished eating nick, indominus now approaches the crane and crouches down on all fours, sniffing. owen and i lie back on our backs, perfectly still, as the dinosaur's bloodied, gore-encrusted jaws inch closer and closer... until finally she withdraws, rising up out of view, and walks away. slowly, owen lifts his head, watching her go, her thudding footsteps retreating into the distance. "is she gone?" i whisper. he nods. shivering, he lies back down as we both exhale in relief.
