The lab was busy. If before I had only Zia and Blue for company; now, scientists and mercenaries were coming in and out, packing everything in crates, the hard drives, vials, eggs... They were frantically cleaning the place out.

Wu entered the lab, fidgeting and looking panicked. 'That can't be good.' He stopped in front of the white bone encased by glass, staring at it for a long minute.

"Get this to Mills." He ushered one of the scientists. "Be careful, it's extremely valuable." He sounded as panicked as he looked. One guy in a lab coat walked in front of him and Wu grabbed him by the arm. "You, I need blood samples from the Raptor. Go grab me a phlebotomy kit." With a nod, the scientist went over to a desk to grab it.

Wu walked over to us, fumbling with some keys. "I need this Raptor's blood." Blue snarled and tried to claw at him, making Wu jump away.

"Sure." Zia chuckled. "Go ahead."

"Where is that kit?" Wu yelled over his shoulder, making me raise a brow. I've never seen him this worked up. "Okay, now listen to me. It is better for you to cooperate. I'm gonna get this blood with or without your help."

"This blood is contaminated." Zia said, matter-of-factly.

Dr. Wu scowled. "I designed this animal myself. Every cell on her body was created in the most controlled environment under the most demanding of conditions. It is pure."

"Yeah, but I did an intravenous blood transfusion with a T. rex, so it's a sock drawer in there."

Wu gasped. "You what?" He looked at me as if asking for confirmation, to which I simply nodded. "You have any idea what you've done?"

Zia shrugged. "I saved a dinosaur's life if that's what you're referring to."

"What's going on, Doc?" I asked.

Many emotions crossed his face as he had an internal breakdown, but he finally focused back on me. "We are evacuating."

"Because..."

"Some room temperature IQ moron decided it was best to open the Indoraptor's cage." Wu hissed.

My mouth hung agape and my brain short-circuited right there.

"You're telling me that we are trapped underground with a murder machine you created on the loose?" Zia was trying to take deep breaths.

"Precisely." Wu sighed. "Now I need that blood-"

"You created this thing, any chance you can, I don't know, get a fucking hold of the situation?" I snapped at him. "Tranq it, shoot it, blow it up... kill the thing!"

Wu pinched the bridge of his nose. "My hands are tied."

"How terrible." I pulled on my handcuffed hand, the metal clanking. "We wouldn't want that now, would we?"

"Where is that kit?" He yelled back at the scientist.

"Hey, Henry." A familiar voice called. All heads turned to the person walking in the side door. She was smiling, ginger hair pulled on a ponytail, bangs crazy messy as she held a tranq rifle straight at Wu.

Wu turned slowly, his face a midst of shock and confusion. "Claire?"

Zia and I beamed, amazed when, with a bright smile, Claire pulled the trigger. Wu gasped, holding his neck where the dart hit.
