INGEN HEADQUARTERS, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - 2025

A man dressed in a white striped shirt with beige cargo pants arrives at the entrance of the InGen headquarters. Everyone looked at him as if he was some extraterrestrial being walking in broad daylight. An eel trying to fit in with a school of fish.

"Mr. Evans! Welcome to the headquarters." Said a voice. As Evans turned his head, he saw a man with a Black suit and tie with slicked back dark hair with grey strands running through in the middle of the stack. Gold rings in his fingers, a piercing on his right ear and smooth brown skin.

"Mr. Kathani! Hello." Said Evans trembling in fear and excitement as they shook their hands

Meeting one of your idols is not an everyday thing. Evans had been admiring the slow rise of Kathani into InGen's board ever since he started working there with him.

As both of them walked together further into the building, they entered a giant circular field covered by a large dome in the middle. A giant rock formation in the middle with a water fall. It was a bio-dome! There were small trained Compsognathuses along with a few baby herbivores like Triceratops and Brachiosaurus.

"Welcome to the InGen Bio-dome! Would you like something to drink?" asked Kathani.
"No thank you. I'm alright" replied Evans.

"This bio-dome was created as an oxygen factory in this HQ. It has tons of algae, plants and small ponds containing phytoplankton. It's almost like a ginormous terrarium with insects, animals, and humans all co-existing for peace of mind" said Kathani.

"This is really cool. I've never seen anything quite like this at a company headquarters." said Evans

"We try to be a bit more... let's say... out of the box with our ideas." Kathani pointed out.

As Evans looked around the place he saw a boy. Mostly in his teenage years, looking through the window on the first floor. Evans stared right back till the boy closed the curtains and ended the staring contest.

"That's just my son. He's quiet... introverted" said kathani as he noticed Evans looking at his son just before he closed the curtains. "Let's get to business." Said he as both of them walked down a giant hallway till the end covered in wooden panels on either side to The Chairman's Office.

"I brought you in today for one job, Evans. There's been a breach in one of our islands a few miles off the coast of Costa Rica, Isla Sorna. We know that you have been in the military and you have the training. That's why I'm technically hiring you for this job." Said Kathani.

"What kind of breach?" Questioned Evans.

"3rd biggest biotech company, and now (unfortunately) our closest rival, MantahCorp Genetics. You have experience with the force and I've set up an ACU for exploring the island and taking down the raid but we need a lot more experience than whoever is leading the mission right now." Said Kathani.

"I'll do it. I just need to know how big the team is" questioned Evans.

"We don't know yet. That's why we're setting up a big team. We could always report the raid to the Costa Rican Government but we'd also have to explain how we knew about this raid. We have security cameras all across the island and it comes under a felony under their law of preserving the island. My theory is that they're after the genomes preserved in that island a decade ago. Frozen in ice for future use. If we don't shut their motive down, MantahCorp can very well use this genome for more black market products, making illegal warfare items and creating chaos in the world all for money." Said Kathani.

"Varun, I just wanna know the information on when we have to head to the island. I can get more people into the force if it's needed. I already lost a lot of people in my family and inner circle because of these dinosaurs, no more." Said Evans

As they talked, a woman with a tall frame, black heels, a tight black skirt, a white top, a messy bun, and red lips entered the room. "Mr. Kathani, the minister of Foreign Affairs is here to see you, as per the meeting" said Sophie, The Chairman Assistant.

"We'll catch up next time, Evans. It was good meeting you." Said kathani as Evans left his office.

Meanwhile at the first floor of the Headquarters,

*INBOX : 1 NEW MESSAGE*
*OPENS*
"Dear Vikram,

This is the team of MantahCorp Genetics speaking, we have noticed your thoughts and opinions on your father and InGen. You believe that what they're doing is beyond your belief and what you think is right. Correct? Vikram, we have noticed that you would also like to cut ties with your father, make money, and move into your own house. That's why we are inviting you with us as an "insider" for our raid on one of InGen's legacy islands, Isla Sorna, for the confiscation of ILLEGAL GENOMIC SAMPLES, which we can use to give to the government and put a stop to InGen once and for all. We will be paying you $500,000 if you accept. As you are an essential asset for this mission of ethics.

Contact us on 8727893644
Do you accept?

Sincerely,
Team Of MantahCorp."

"What is this nonsense. Must be a prank." Thought Vikram in his mind but he was unsure. He felt like it was a fake email but it was sent by the official MantahCorp account. So, he decided to call the number in the email.

"Hello." said the other side of the call.

"Hello? My name is Vikram Kathani. I received an email from MantahCorp. It says that I have to take part in a raid? Is this true?" Asked Vikram

"Yes! We have contacted you through some discreet sources." Said the other side of the call as they begin to explain Vikrams everything about this raid.

"Don't inform your father about this though. He would shut it down as soon as he found out." Exclaimed the MantahCorp member.

Vikram agreed to the conditions. He had to reach a helipad near a discreet military base in Southern California that night.

"Hello? Taylor?" Said Vikram on a call as he started packing for that night.
"Hey! How are you, dude?" Replied Taylor.

"You know how I've been going against my dad the past 4 years? I just got this crazy email from MantahCorp saying I have to take part in some raid behind InGen's back to destroy the remaining genomes or something on the island." Said Vikram.

"Okay wow. ummm... this means going against your dad. Vikram what exactly good is gonna come out from this? It feels risky." Said Taylor.

"Tay, my father continued working for a company that made animals that killed my mother. Jurassic World was the worst trip I ever had in my life. How could a man who loved a woman like my mom so much go on to work for a company that made those beasts. It feels like backstabbing. He's a snake, Taylor. A SNAKE!" Said Vikram.

"Is that it? Just a comeback for how he's treated you? Vikram this seems really risky. It's illegal to go into that island. You know the island and the routes in there but what if the officials catch you people? This could ruin your future." Said Taylor.

"They're paying me 500 grand for this. I can buy my own apartment with that much money and paying for college along with my saved money. This is a great thing. Also, they're a professional company. They would know how to do this and execute it. Turns out there's already people on the island. I gave this enough thought, Taylor. This man needs to go down. I can't even see my father in this greedy man anymore." Said Vikram.
