Without waiting for an answer of any kind, Bea rapidly walked towards the cage where her brother was locked up with Barry. The young woman knelt down in front of the door and fumbled with the keys she had in her hand, it only had four keys in the chain but there was still no time to lose.

"How did you get those?" barked Owen.

"Ok man, you gotta chill" said Bea as she tried another key in the lock "I was acting ok? I didn't mean anything I said"

"You are a good actress" Lowery spoke, a smile stretched over Bea's lips, she glanced over her shoulder and looked at Lowery.

"Thank you" she answered before she turned back to the lock and pushed in the right key "Took a class in college"

"Just open the door" barked Owen, Bea rolled her eyes and pulled the lock off the door and swung the door open, she looked at her brother as she pushed herself up to her feet and headed towards the second cage.

"I didn't mean anything Owen" she continued, her voice serious, "I had to make him think I was against you guys so he would trust me"

She knelt down in front of the cage were Zach was and pushed in the same key that had worked with Owen's cage.

"What happened to Andrew?" asked Lowery.

"Since no one has come over I'm assuming no one has found him yet" shrugged Bea, she sighed as the key didn't work and tried another.

"Is he dead?" asked Barry.

"Jesus Christ no" she barked, she turned to Barry and then looked at the box she had placed near the tent flap "There's a gun in that box" she turned to the cage and managed to open the door. Bea pulled the lock off and then her eyes fell over Zach "We're still dating right?" she asked.

"You broke up with me!" he pointed out, Bea pulled the door open and stepped away so Zach and Lowery could crawl out.

"Do you want to get back together?" she asked as she watched him crawl out.

"Yes" answered Zach, he turned to help Lowery stand up as Bea smiled.

"Well, so we can start over you should know I had to kiss Andrew"

"What?" gasped Zach, he turned around as he let go of Lowery, the tech guy stumbled forward and Barry grabbed his arm before he could crash to the floor "How did that happen?"

"I had to get the keys and the best distraction was kissing him" shrugged Bea "He seemed to like me so I took a chance and then I smacked him with a flashlight on the face and head and he's unconscious now"

"Jesus Christ Beatriz are you insane?" barked Owen, he had pulled the gun out of the box and was now loading it with the ammo that had been inside it.

"Well, I don't see you having a better plan to get out of here" shrugged Bea "So, yeah your welcome for getting you out"

Owen glared at his sister and she looked back at him, there was a silence as the Grady brothers looked at each other and then a smile broke into Owen's face and he looked down at the gun, Bea smiled and turned to Zach.

"God, you scared me" he whispered and then pulled Bea up towards his chest, her arms rapidly wrapping themselves around his torso as she closed her eyes.

"I'm sorry" she whispered "I'm sorry for the horrid things I said" she opened her eyes and found Owen looking at her "You never had to be a dad, you are my brother and that's all you ever have to be"

"You are gonna make me cry" mocked Owen but she knew that he was actually accepting her apology.

"We need to get out of here fast" said Bea, she pushed herself away from Zach gently.

"How exactly are you gonna do that with me?" asked Lowery.

"Dude," chuckled Bea "I stole more than a gun and cage keys" her hand fished for something in her pockets and pulled another set of keys "Car keys my good man"

"You have got to be kidding me" whispered Barry "How did you think of all of this?"

"I'm smart like that"

Barry chuckled and turned to Owen "You have to help me with Lowery, take him to the car so we can get out of here"

The group made its way out of the tent with Bea leading the way, after all she had been out of the tent before and she had been able to get a glimpse of the things around; behind her came Zach and although Owen was grateful that his sister was acting like her normal self again he wished that Romeo would stop being so handsy with her.

"Are you sure the car is near?" asked Owen from the back of the line.

"Yes" hissed Bea "Would you shut up already?"

"No" but he did as the young woman trotted behind the tents with the group behind her.

Up ahead and almost hiding behind the tall pastures one of the cars could be seen, its black paint barely visible by the great amount of dirt it had splattered on and the thick blades that waved softly with the breeze.

Bea made a run for the car pulling Zach behind her, she knew her brother would be the one driving but since he had to help Barry with Lowery she could at least open the doors for them so they could make a run for it in case Andrew woke up and started screaming for help.

"Maybe I should have tied that asshole up" she thought as she pulled the door of the driver open and Zach did the same with one of the back doors. "Well, there's no going back now" she turned around and signaled her brother to hurry towards them.

Seeing Barry and Owen run as they dragged Lowery towards the car was agonizing, they seemed to move incredibly slow and although Bea knew they were doing the best they could but right now everyone had to do more than that.

"Get in!" barked Bea, she grabbed Lowery from Owen's shoulder and her brother dove into the driver's seat as Barry ran around the car to get to the passenger's door while Bea and Zach helped Lowery into the car. "Come on, come on, come on"

"Don't do that" said Zach, Bea turned to look at him "Last time you started repeating something you scared the living days out of me"

"I'm sorry" whispered Bea "I really am Zach, I...

"I know" smiled Zach "I know you didn't mean it, I...

"Could you get inside the fucking care already?" barked Owen.

Bea rolled her eyes and turned to the car, Zach climbed in first and then Bea rapidly followed him and slammed the door behind herself just as a scream broke into the pastures

"What the hell was that?" cried Lowery.

His answer soon came in the form of a gunshot.

"Are they shooting at us?!" cried Bea "Start driving!"

"I don't think they are shooting at us!" cried Owen, and just as he was about to start the car another shot echoed in the air.

"DRIVE!" cried Bea "What are you waiting for!?"

The whole car screamed with terror as a figure leaped from the cover of the pastures and its weight shook the car as the Velociraptor landed over the hood of the car; its teeth showing and its eyes dark with anger and conviction as it looked towards the place where the shooting was taking place and then it roared dangerously and from behind the pastures other raptors rushed out and chaos broke lose in the camp site.
