I Train Raptors For a Living [Jurassic World Fanfic]

Names

Day 2

          I was at the temporary paddock. The raptors were getting ready to be fed their first breakfast. We were feeding them piece of chicken, and a bit of pork. I was standing in the middle of the paddock with the raptors surrounding me. They were hopping up and down chirping when they saw me take out the bucket of meat. I shook my head laughing and tossed them their food.
          "Owen!" A voice said from the catwalk.
          It was my friend and fellow trainer Barry. We've been friends for a long time. He was with me in the Marines and also train attacked dogs alongside me. Barry gestured for me to join him and he started walking down the catwalk. I tossed the rest of the food to the raptors and started to walk out. I headed out of the paddock and up the metal stairs. I met Barry on the cat walk. He was leaning against the railings looking over his shoulder down at the raptors.
          "This won't work if we don't give them names. We can't train them if they don't have names to respond to." Barry said.
          "I know, I know." I said looking down at the raptors playing.
          "Any ideas?" Barry said.
          "Let's keep it simple." I said looking back up at him.
          "How about the Greek alphabet? Beta, Charlie, Delta, and Echo." Barry said.
          "Sure, sounds good." I said.
         I looked down at the raptors playing.
          "But that one down there is special." I said as I pointed down to the realtor with the blue stripe.
          "I think I'm gonna call her Blue." I said not taking my gaze of the raptors.
          "Blue it is." Barry said.
