Reason ❇ Jurassic World

One

After getting close to the land where the Apatosaurus' and Triceratops reside, I stopped my car and walked out with my dog behind me. I turned the engine off and walked out of the car following my dog out into the land. I smile widely feeling the heat of Isla Nublar, I sigh loudly. I saw one of the Apatosaurus walking towards me. I smile standing still, I knew it wouldn't hurt me. When it stopped, it leaned down towards me sniffing me.

I laughed a little bit patting it's nose, it purred and walked off. Smiling, I look at it as it walks off. Yes, she was female and she was ready to pop. I smile widely, I couldn't wait. I could hear static from my radio and I blink lightly. I grab my radio and talk into it after pressing the button.

"Go for Ashly." I use my nickname, knowing who was calling.

"Ms. Petrelli you know better than to use that nickname, please refrain from using it." I heard my boss tell me. I roll my eyes.

"Don't push it, Claire, I have freedom of speech, y'know? Now what do you want?" I asked quite rudely.

"Is there any possible chance you can keep an eye on my nephews when they show up later today?" Claire questions me, and I sigh.

"You know I'd love too." I told her softly. "But unfortunately, one of the Apatosaurus' is about to give birth and I have to make sure she's comfortable. I know you think they're just research and stuff, but to me - these are wonderful animals." I continue and shut off my radio before she could protest.

My wolf-mix barked three times again, I smile and pat her head. "Okay, I know you're getting excited to see Owen, Apple, slow down." I laugh again and we both walk to the car but before I made it there, I gasp when I feel a nudge. I turn around seeing a baby triceratops. I smile and kneel down to it and start patting it's head. "I'll be back in a little bit okay, then I'll play with you." The baby made a sound running off, almost happy. I smile and walk into my jeep and start it up.

I began driving off, feeling the wind against my face.

"Hal Osterly, vice-president... Jim Drucker, bad hair... Erica Brand, deserves better... Hal, Jim, Erica. Hal, Jim, Erica. And I am Claire." Claire was speaking to herself in the elevator trying to memorize her lines for the people she's going to be meeting. As the elevator dings, she looks down at her watch and sighs irritated. "Three minutes late." She lets out a breath and smiles while the door opens and looks at the people in front of her. "Welcome to Jurassic World."

They all began walking around the place, people looking around enjoying what was around them. Claire was leading them around speaking to them.

"Scientists are hard at work as visitors watch them through convex windows." She explained to them as she leads a small tour group consisting of three potential investors, Hal, Jim and Erica through the laboratory. "While year-over-year revenue continues to climb, operating costs are higher than ever. Our shareholders have been patient, but let's be honest, no one's impressed by a dinosaur anymore. Twenty years ago, de-extinction was right up there with magic. These days, kids look at a Stegosaurus like an elephant from the city zoo. That doesn't mean asset development has fallen behind. Our DNA excavators discover new species every year." She continues to explain.

As they enter a part of the lab closed to visitors. DNA double helixes are displayed on computer screens. Eggs big and small were seen, and in an incubator. "But consumers want them bigger. Louder. More teeth." The investors exchange looks while listening intently. "The good news? Our advances in gene splicing have opened up a whole new frontier. We've learned more from genetics in the past decade than a century of digging up bones." She leads them to the computer screens and looks back at them.
