Quick A.N: So I can't decide whether I want to make this story with the POVS of the characters or write it in third person so I'm going to do all of them. Some parts will be third person and some will be the characters POVS.
----------------------------------------------

Emily Grant was zipping up her suitcases and getting ready to fly to Isla Nublar. It's the island where Jurassic World will be. It's just off the coast of Costa Rica.

She was full of excitement. I mean, she was going to train a Tyrannosaurus Rex for goodness sake! Her parents, Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler, didn't really approve of her decision considering their experience at Jurassic Park. But Emily was 18 so they couldn't technically control her.

∙∘↠Emily's POV↞∘∙
I had just finished packing. I felt really accomplished! Or maybe I was just so excited. Either way it felt good to be all packed. My flight leaves at 5:30 which means I'll have to wake up at like 4 AM. And let me tell you, I was everything BUT excited for that. Going to the airport gives me major anxiety because it's always super crowded and loud and I feel like I always look like a train wreck because I'm so tired. Basically I wake up, throw my hair in a bun, put on leggings or sweatpants, grab a sweatshirt or a jacket, grab a super quick breakfast, then leave. Like I pretty much don't try at all to look decent. I mean, it's 4 AM. Do you really expect me to put on makeup and jeans. Heck no! Sorry but no. 

The only things I had left to pack were things like my phone, charger, hair brush, toothbrush and toothpaste, etc. just things that I will need in the morning. Other than that, everything was packed.

I made sure my alarm was on and then decided to take a shower since there wouldn't be time in the morning. Also, I prefer to take my showers at night anyways. I grabbed some pajamas and went to the bathroom. I turned on the water and waited a few seconds for it to warm up. Then I stripped and got in. The warm water trickled down my back and I loved it. I did my usual routine and turned off the water. I stepped out and grabbed my towel quickly to try to stay warm. This was the worst part about showering. When you step out of the warm shower and all the cold air hits you like a brick wall. Yeah not my favorite. I got dressed, brushed through my shoulder length light brown hair, and then brushed my teeth. Then I went to my room and got under my comforter. It was so soft and I loved it. I made sure my alarm was on one more time before I closed my eyes.

Emily woke up to her annoying alarm. She was everything but a morning person. 4 AM was much too early for her taste. She sat up and rubbed her eyes before kicking her feet over the edge. She stood up and unplugged her phone from the charger and the charger from the wall. She put both of them in her carry on bag that was a large black bag from Forever 21.

She went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. She got a little scared when she saw her hair in a tangled mess but quickly calmed down and brushed through it. Finally when there were no tangles she put it into a messy bun. Then she quickly brushed her teeth and put her toothbrush and toothpaste into a container and put them into her toiletry bag. She threw it in her suitcase and zipped it up. Then she put her hair brush into her carry on. She threw on some black leggings and an oversized maroon sweatshirt. She put on some socks and her white low tops Converse. She grabbed her two large suitcases and her carry on purse and went over everything she packed while she went downstairs to grab something for breakfast. ( She was living on her own btw.) She went to the kitchen and threw a bagel in the toaster. She got out the cream cheese and kept going over what she packed in her head. Her bagel popped and she spread cream cheese all over it. She was going to get a ride with her parents to the airport so that her car wouldn't be in the airport parking lot for a long time. She heard a knock and grabbed her suitcases and carry on and bagel and unlocked the door. "Hey kiddo." Her father said as he grabbed a suitcase. "Hi sweetie!" Her mother said. "Hi!" Emily smiled excitedly. Her parents helped get her stuff to their car and then they were on their way to the airport.
