The control room is quiet when Claire and I rush in.
"Everyone remain calm."
There's no response from the shaken attendants and the solemn expressions on their faces makes my mouth go dry. What just happened was an atrocity but it would pale in comparison to what would happen if Isla were allowed into a populated area.
"The implant will shock it if it gets too close to a perimeter fence," Claire says clearly and rushes to lean over Lowery's computer.
"Okay, it's moving really fast," he comments uneasily. Vivian promptly taps her headset and begins issuing an alert.
"This is control, put out a park-wide alert-"
"Hang up the damn phone, please!"
Masrani barks and Vivian halts mid sentence."Sorry, I'm getting new information. Everything is fine," she lies in a shaky voice.
"Let Asset Containment capture it quietly. The very existence of this park is predicated on our ability to handle incidents like this," Masrani advises calmly. "It was an eventuality, okay?"
"You should put that in the brochure. Eventually, one of these things will eat somebody," Lowery snarks, not at all impressed with how Masrani wants to handle this. I don't agree with him at all but I can see his reasoning.
"That paddock is four miles from the closest attraction. ACU can handle this, no one else is gonna get-"
"Eaten?" Lowery finishes for Claire.
Claire looks to me and I meet her gaze while swallowing down the growing lump in my throat.
"I'll call ACU and discuss details," I volunteer and turn my back on everyone while briskly exiting to escape the cloistering tension.
Organization and attention to detail have always been my strong suit so I can do both under stress.

The raptor research arena is abustle when I pull up in my black Subaru.
Parking, I shut the car off and step out of the AC and into the beating sun. Sunglasses shield my eyes from the worst of it but the heat makes me regret wearing a jacket.
Strolling up to the raptor holding area, where I usually find Owen Grady, I instead come upon Barry and Hoskins.
They are closely watching the raptors in their separate body cages and Barry is softly stroking Echo.
"Barry!" I call and his gaze jerks up. The man smiles at me and comes around to let me in to the feeding area.
"Aakarshaka! This is about the intern earlier?" He questions and I chuckle. Barry has never shied away from calling me by my real name and not the easier American version.
