It's a new day. Darius had found a plastic food try on the boat and decided to use it to patch the hole. "It ain't pretty but should be watertight." Brooklynn says as she and Yaz hold the tray steady as Darius uses the sealant around the edges. We are smile, the tray is stuck. "Dope. Let's leave already." Kenji says excitedly. "Oh my god, I can't believe this is really happening." Sammy replies as she shakes Kenji. "Goodbye Isla Nublar." Brooklynn says smugly as she does a wave towards the island. "We are outta here!" Yaz screams as she throws her hands in the air. "Hold up guys." I say as I take the sealant from Darius. "It says that we have to wait 48 hours for it to set." I say as I hold up where it says. They all groan. "They have to say that for insurance and junk." Kenji says, waving off their concerns. "As your captain, I pronounce this vessel sea worth-." He says as he bangs his fist on the hull. The tray drops down on the dock. We all look at him with 'I can't deal with this' looks. I glare at Kenji with absolute annoyance. "Haha, I've got captaining stuff to do over there." He says as gives Darius the tray while pointing to the island end of the dock. "Let's do it one more time." Darius says. "Let's try putting the sealant around the edges and on the flip side, to give it more grip." I say as Darius nods. Myself and Brooklynn hold the tray but Sammy wants to talk about something personal with Brooklynn for which she agrees, dropping the tray slightly which I catch. Me and Darius see them walk away, we scoff. Have to do everything ourselves.

"Let's fix this." I say as I hold the tray, Darius spreads some good lines along the back and I slam it to the boat, covering the hole. Darius traces the outline of the tray again. We back away and the tray is in place. "Now to let it set." I say as I look to see Kenji and Yaz talking. "Let's go see what those two are doing." I say for which Darius nods. We walk over to see Kenji throw some quarters at some Compys. "It's like my dad always says, 'if you got a problem, throw cash at it'. Kenji says which Darius questions. "I don't think that's such a good idea." I agree with him. "Do you know what happens when you give a pigeon too much food?" I ask which he shrugs. "A fat pigeon?" He says, Yaz punches Kenji in the arm. "More pigeons. You get more pigeons!" Yaz shouts as she points to four more Compys that have showed up. "It's a good thing that I'm rich. Here you go!" He says as he throws more quarters. I slap my face with my hand. Didn't we just explain to him what would happen. "You idiot, now you've made it worse!" Yaz shouts out. I notice out of the corner of my eye that a Compy has picked up the compass. "She's got the compass." I say to the others as the compy hops down. "This is not good." Yaz says. "Hey, little compy give it back, I'll give you two quarters for it." Kenji tries to reason but the compy doesn't care.

"Approach it slowly." I say as Darius takes one teeny tiny step and.......it fucking bolts. We speed after the little rats into the jungle just as Ben was returning with Bumpy. "We'll be back, you're in charge." I say as I pass him. We run after the little buggers deeper into the jungle. These little things are fast, too fast for their size. Me and Yaz run past the other two, Yaz just being ahead of me. "Go get it Yaz." I call out to her. "Don't play with me, Compy. You'll not outrun me!" She says as she gets closer nearly wrapping her hand around the tiny dinosaurs' neck. The compy looks back at Yaz and drops the compass. On purpose. Yaz slides to a halt just as another Compy picks up the compass. "Hey, that's cheating!" Yaz says as I dive and catch the compy who throws it in the direction of Darius and Kenji. Another Compy picks up the compass just as Darius and Kenji run into each other. I throw the compy in my hand away, chasing after the compass again.

We chase after the Compy. Jumping over logs, rocks and bashing large leaves out of the way. We come to a stop between two thick trees. We have lost sight of it. We walk out of the jungle onto a road. A Jurassic World jeep is lodged onto a rock. "Anyone see where it went?" Yaz asks as we spread out looking for the Compy. Darius checks out the jeep as myself and Yaz spot the large shadow overhead. We look and see an old ruined structure. "Hey, Darius, you should come look at this." I call out as Darius races over to where me, Yaz and Kenji are standing, looking at giant ruined monolithic building. "Whoa.....do you guys know where we are?" Darius asks with wonder. "Welcome to Jurassic Park." I say with fond nostalgia. I remember the rumors and the stories that came from the myth of Jurassic Park. I sometimes wish I could have seen it in its prime.
