Escaping Jurassic World

Chapter 2

Rosalie entered into the main hall and found herself greeted with holograms scattered around the air in the entire place, discussing to little children and parents how d.n.a stored in a mosquito in amber started this entire place and how that d.n.a worked in the different dinosaurs. The bio-engineering behind Jurassic World was profound, even more so than when it was Jurassic Park. Though, in recent years, the park was decreasing in numbers as dinosaurs were now becoming a past time and like any other theme park. The big guys obviously didn't like this and employees were hearing rumor's of a new dino being engineered. Rosalie wasn't sure if this was a good thing or the bio-majors trying to play God.

She looked around the room to try and find any glimpse of Claire. From afar she could see a red bob cut standing in front of the stairs and next to the raptor hologram in the center of the room. Her back was turned to her so Rose began walking forward, her eyes looking away to look at a hologram discussing the difference between d.n.a and r.n.a. She suddenly felt a sudden thump against her chest at an impact, and she looked down to see a messy mop of blonde hair. A boy around 12 looked up at her, a sweet innocent smile on his face. "Ooh! So sorry! I wasn't looking!" The kid apologized. "Thats alright! No harm done!" Rosalie assured. "Gray! Watch where your going man!" A voice chided.

Rose looked up to see Claire turning around, her blue eyes finding the her and the kid named Gray. Behind her stood a kid, actually a teen, around her age. He had brown eyes and deep brown hair. He was handsome to say the least. In a boyish way. "Rose! There you are, I was hoping you would show soon!" Claire exclaimed. Rose watched as the teen looked to Claire confused then to Rose, his expression souring. Oh great. Her eyes shifted back to Claire as the stiff woman approached her. "This is Gray" she motioned to the boy who had bumped into her. He gave Rosalie an enthusiastic smile and wave, seemingly excited about where he was standing. "And this is his older brother, Zach." She gestured to the teen behind her, who had now walked up and joined all of them.

"These are their wristbands, it will get them v.i.p. access and skip all the lines for any rides they want to go on!" Claire exclaimed. Rosalie took the bands from her, offering them to Zach and Gray awkwardly. Zach's jaw ticked as he looked at the band then to Rosalie, understanding what was happening. If she was in his position she would be pissed off as well. "Wait.. your not going with us?" Gray asked, his eyes dimming as he looked up at Claire. Claire frowned and seemed stunned in her spot as she looked at Gray then looked to Zach for help. He of course, refused. Something told Rosalie those two had gotten off on the wrong foot already. Claire stammered and looked down at Gray "oh sweety, I-I'm sorry but I have meetings all day" she already was backing up towards the stairs but not breaking eye contact with Gray. Her phone began to ring and she answered it holding the phone to her ear. "But i can meet you guys for dinner" a glance to the phone "a late dinner. Whats your bedtime? Do you guys have bedtimes?" She asked before speaking into the phone. "Well I" Gray started before Claire cut him off "okay I'll see you guys tonight!" and with that she made her way back up the stairs.

Gray seemed to frown and Zach stayed quiet making it hard for Rosalie to decipher how to handle the already tense situation. When she was little and found herself upset Owen seemed to change the topic to something Rose liked. Maybe that could work. She looked to Gray with a wide smile, who was frowning down at the wrist band. She gently placed a hand on his shoulder. "Wanna meet some baby dinosaurs? Hands on?" She asked and to her delight his eyes lit up instantly.

She felt relief wash over her as she began to lead them out of the main hall. She looked behind her to check on Zach but his eyes were pre-occupied. Her eyes followed his gaze to another teen girl. Seemed Claire and Zach shared something in common with the family dynamic. Go figure. She ticked her jaw and looked forward, focusing her attention on Gray. "So, whats your favorite type of dinosaur?" She asked. Zach's eyes widened and he looked forward raising his hand slightly "no don't," but it was too late, as Grays mouth opened an entire monologue of different breeds and reasons to like them began. It just managed to make Rosalie chuckle as they navigated the park.
