I looked at the guy and smirked. "Ok you i like." i held out my good hand. "Alanna Grant. Rexy's mother." the guy shook my hand and smiled. "Glad i'm liked. Owen Grady. Future Raptor alpha." i raised an eyebrow. "Nice to meet you raptor boy." Claire had cleared her throat to gain our attention.

We both looked at her with boredom. "If you both are finished. We have business to attend to."
"All done." Owen had stood up and cleaned up his mess. "Thanks. Now what business is their to do Claire?" i stood up and started putting all my reports in the filing cabinet. "You are in charge of showing Mr. Grady around and get  him associated with his assets."

"Again with the whole asset thing. They are dinosaurs Claire." Claire however wasn't listening she just looked at her phone. "Show him around. His housing unit is across from yours. Have a good day." she walked out of my office leaving me with Owen.

"I hope you don't mind chilling out here for a few minutes. I got a few things to finish up here then we can head out." Owen shook his head. "I'm in no rush Dr. Grant." i put my hand up. "Its just Alanna. Dr. Grant is my father." he nodded understanding. "What do you have to finish? Maybe i can help."

"Just gotta do a few more exercises then we're good to go." his eyes got a little big. "Do you think thats a good idea with you being injured?" i chuckled. "Nah. its not the first time this has happened. Me and Claire have had this conversation many times." Owen smiled. "Why am i not surprised?"

"You stick around long enough Grady you'll see worse between us." we started walking towards the paddock door. "Won't she fire you for it one day?" i shook my head. "No. Mr. Masrani would never allow it. And no matter how my father feels about this island he would have her head." he looked at me confused.

"What do you mean by "how your father feels about the island?" i sighed. Its difficult to talk about this. Mainly because most people don't believe me when i talk about the incident. Even though Jurassic World is popular.

"Back when John Hammond made the first park. He had invited my father and a few others to endorse the park. Me being about... 6 at the time begged my dad to let me come. It took a few puppy dog eyes and an "i'll love you forever" and he caved. We weren't even their a full day when everything went downhill. The power was cut and everything was loose. Long story short. I was attacked by a t-rex and a pack of raptors."

I noticed Owen wasn't walking by me anymore. I stopped and looked at him. "What?" "you were attacked by two of the most dangerous carnivores of their time and now you are here working with one?" i shrugged. "I gained respect for them. I'm not saying that i didn't have nightmares or lasting effects."

"I don't know whether i should be amazed or scared shitless of you."
