With the train lights extinguished, the passengers, no longer visible to the pteranodons, were left in peace. However, this respite came only after the creatures had claimed one of their own – poor Ben.
Kenji dropped to his knees as Bumby bellowed off the train.
"He's gone. He's gone." Yaz said in disbelief.
"I won't believe it!" Sammy cried as she broke down.
"Sammy." Yaz tried to comfort her.
"No!" Sammy began to cry into Yaz's shoulder.
Darius looked down at his hand and up to the train tracks. But that was when he realized that they were in much serious danger... again. "We're going back. The monorail's going back!"
The monorail took a deep turn, causing everyone to be sent flying. "What do you mean, "going back"?" Peter asked.
"When we switched tracks, we ended up on one headed north. We're not going to the south docks, we're going away from them!" Darius cried as he ran over to the controls, trying to stop the monorail. "Doesn't anything here work?! Qe gotta get off this monorail now!"
Brooklynn pants as she runs over to the broken window, looking out to see a dip up ahead with the curve. "Oh! The track dips down up ahead! We can jump there!"
Kenji didn't seem to like that plan. "What? Jump?"
"Can we ever stay with the vehicle we are on?!" Peter groaned as he stood up.
"We can't! It's too far to jump!"
"It's the only way!" Darius exhales as the turn comes up.
"One..."
Sammy whimpers.
Yaz's neck cracks as she prepares to go.
"Two..."
Peter panted as he stood up, the cuts on his face slowly healing back up.
"...three!"
They all jumped off the monorail and screamed as they fell downward. Everyone was sent tumbling and Kenji ended up dropping Bumpy as they fell down the hill. Peter groaned as he smacked into a tree stump. That was followed with Brooklynn smacking into him, causing him to groan again.
"This park... is trying to hurt me!" Peter exclaimed in anger, ripping the stump from the ground and tossing it across the park.
"Is everyone all right?" Darius asks.
Brooklynn groans as she helped Peter stand. "Ish. Are you?"
"I'll live," Peter promises.
"Bumpy. Where's Bumpy?" Kenji asked as he looked around. "I lost her when I hit the ground. She's gotta be here. Bumpy? Bumpy!
"Shh!" Brooklynn shushed him. "There are still dinosaurs out here, including Toro and-"
"Bumpy! Bumpy!" Kenji ignored her.
"We gotta look for her, don't we?" Sammy asks. "And Ben! He might still be-"
"How? We don't even know where they are!" Yaz stated, taking a step, only to fall and wince when she put the pressure on her leg.
"Attention. All park-goers must report to the south ferry dock for immediate evacuation. Last ferry departs in 60 minutes."
"No chance we could get there in an hour!" Yaz stated. "It's way too far!"
"Not if we leave right now!" Brooklynn stated.
"But Bumpy, and Ben!" Sammy said.
"We can't go back for Ben!" Peter was sorry to tell her. Sorrow on his face, hating that even with all of this power, he was failing to save their lives. "Ben's... gone. There's just not enough time to look for them. We can make it to the ferry, but only if we go now."
