Watching as the Tyrannosaurus Rex stomped from it's enclosure, it looked around the area before letting out a very large roar, making everyone cover their ears.

"Boy, do I hate being right all the time." Ian mumbled, adjusting his glasses as he stared at the large dinosaur.

Roaring again, the dinosaur stomped away from the cars and towards a nearby tree, sniffing it. "Keep absolutely still." Alan warned. "It's vision is based on movement."

"Don't have to tell me twice." Ian muttered, glancing at Marlene.

"What about the kids?" Marlene asked again for the second time that night, her worry increasing.

"I'm sure they're smart enough to not draw any attention to themselves." Suddenly, a beam of light came from the car, catching the attention of the very hungry dinosaur. "Damnitt, turn the light off."

"Please turn the light off." Marlene whispered, watching how the dinosaur sniffed around the car. The T. Rex then let out a vicious roar, making Marlene's heart stop as she instinctively grabbed onto the first thing her hand could find, which was Ian's upper-arm.

Marlene could only watch in horror as the T. Rex stared at the car before diving snout first into it, popping the ceiling window off the car at an attempt to get to the children.

"Al, we have to do something. We-!"

"I know, I know! Just let me..." he trailed off, looking around the car. At this point, the dinosaur had already flipped the car upside down, the children's screams intensifying. Gasping, Marlene let go of Ian's arm as she looked in the back, throwing things at an attempt of finding something helpful.

Finding a black box, she quickly opened it, scattering things around until she saw a couple of red candles. "Alan!" She said, gaining her brother's attention. Holding the candle, the brother took it, grabbing a lighter he kept in his pocket at all times. "I'll distract it, you grab the kids." Alan told Marlene, the woman nodding.

"What about me?" Ian asked, wanting to help.

"Wait here." The two said simultaneously.

Alan then jumped out of the car first as he lit the candle, waving it around frantically as he screamed "Hey!". Finally catching the full attention of the dinosaur, Marlene carefully climbed over Ian as she got out of the car herself, having to crawl on the muddy ground so she wouldn't cause any unwanted attention to herself.

Finally getting to the crushed up, the kids were still crying and screaming, wanting nothing more than to get out of the car. "Dr. Grant, I- I-!"

"I know Lex, just be very still and quiet. We'll get you out of there soon. Alan is going to attempt to make it go away for a moment so we have time."

"Ian, freeze!" Alan suddenly yelled, getting the lady's attention as she looked up, seeing that Ian had gotten out of the car with a lit candle in his hand.

"Get the kids!" He screamed back, Marlene standing back up as she watched the Chaotician get chased by the large dinosaur.

"Drop the flare, goddamnitt!" She yelled, her attempts in vain as he didn't hear her. "Fuck!"

Running away from the dinosaur, he looked at the glare then back at thing that was chasing him before throwing it, making a beeline to the restroom.

Before he could make it in the bathroom, he felt himself being picked up and soon thrown. Landing on the wooden ground if the bathroom, he could barely keep his eyes open to be able to see the T. Rex tearing the bathroom shed up and then the screams of someone else before he was out cold.

The last thing that Marlene saw of Ian Malcolm was him being thrown somewhere. And then she had to witness the dinosaur eating Donald Genarro, who she didn't like but it was still pretty fucked up to watch a T. Rex just bite a human in half like that.

"Dr. Grant!" Timmy cried.

"Marlene, help me grab Timmy!" Alan yelled, each grabbing on of his hands as they tried to pull, only to no avail.

"I'm stuck!" He cries, a mix of tears and blood streaming down his face.

"We'll get you next, Tim." Alan said before helping Lex climb out. Tim whined, sniffling as he tried to breath.

"It's ok Tim, hold onto my hand, ok?" Marlene said, grabbing his hand. The boy nodded at the best of his ability, squeezing it tightly.

"I-I'm scared."

"I know, honey, but it'll all be over soon. I-!" Before she could finish her phrase, Lex had let out a blood-curdling scream, making Marlene look back and Alan cover the teen's mouth.

The T. Rex was standing in front of them, it large foot making a shape in the mud. "Don't move." Alan ordered, holding onto the girl tightly. "She can't see us if we don't move."

Sniffing the car, Marlene could only close her eyes and hold her breath as the dinosaur got up close and personal with her, the breath of the Dino make her hair blow.

"Oh!" She yelled in panic as the T. Rex starting spinning the car, making Marlene let go of Tim's hand. "No! Tim!" Marlene called as the dinosaur kept spinning the car one way and then the other, making the boy cry harder.

'Fuck, fuck, fuck...' Marlene, watching as Alan and Lex climbed on the ledge of the enclosure. "Fuck..." she cursed audibly this time, taking a step back as she thought of what she could do.

But she didn't get to think long until she felt something hard hit her stomach, sending her flying backward a great distance of feet. She barely had to gasp before she herself landing on something rough, a sharp pain in her nose and head.

Hissing, she tried to stand up, knowing that her brother and John's grandkids needed all the help they could get, but she just right but on the ground. 'Alan... Tim... Lex... Ian...' was her last thoughts before her vision went dark.
