Travel to Jurassic World

Chapter 5

Following the map to the Gyrosphere attraction, Maya pulled up to a valley like area. She dismounted the bike before running towards the crowd that was waiting in line for the ride when she spotted her brothers near the front. She pushed her way through people to join her brothers and after some harmless flirting with the operator, the Mitchell siblings were able to climb into a Gyrosphere together. Gray sat on Maya's lap while Zach sat in his own chair. Zach took the controls of the sphere before tilting his left hand forward on the lever to get the sphere to roll forward. None of the siblings paid any mind to the little video recording that had begun to play, too busy taking in the sights of the dinosaurs that they rode beside. Zach's phone rang suddenly so Maya took the controls while he answered the call which happened to be from their aunt. However, the sphere had really bad service and he couldn't understand her so he just hung up.

Maya eventually brought their sphere over to a gate that had been smashed in.

"What happened here?" Zach asked, taking in the broken gate.

Maya had an idea and gave her brothers a mischievous look.

"Guys...off roading." she tells them.

Zach smiled at the thought but, Gray looked at his older siblings in concern.

"But, they said we had to go back." he mentions.

While Zach had been on the phone with their aunt, the small screen in the sphere had played a message saying that the ride had been shut down.

"Come on Gray, I'm just not sure we're getting the full Jurassic World experience." Maya tells her youngest brother.

"Shh..." Zach told Gray, briefly holding a finger up to his lips.

He took the controls back from Maya before driving them off road. Gray started to protest, saying that it was a really bad idea while Maya tried to convince him otherwise when Zach finally stopped the sphere.

"See, up close and personal with four.....dinosauruses." Zach tells Gray, unsure of what kind of dinosaurs they were currently looking at.

"Ankylosaurus," Gray corrected before continuing on. "We shouldn't be here and there are five."

Zach looks at his brother in disbelief.

"Are you supposed to be a genius or something? Look, one, two, three, four." he says, counting the dinos.

"Five," Gray said, pointing the last dinosaur.

It was then that Maya realized that the fifth dinosaur that Gray was seeing was actually a reflection of one. She turned her head to look over her shoulder and stared at the white dino that was bigger than a T. Rex.

"Go, go!" Maya told her brother.

Confused, Zach glanced over his shoulder just as the dinosaur behind them let out a roar and Gray leaned over some to hit his brother to get him to focus.

"Drive! Go, go, go!" he shouted.

Zach quickly turned back around and used the controls to move the gyrosphere forward. They didn't get very far though because the dino that was behind them, kicked the sphere sending the siblings into a spin out. Gray was screaming in fear, Maya held onto her younger brother while Zach put his arm out in front of his siblings as a brace while telling Gray to hold it together. When the gyrosphere finally stopped spinning, Maya took the controls this time and began to drive the sphere as fast as possible to get out of there. Unfortunately, they were stopped again when the tail of one of the Ankylosaurs' bashed against the glass of the gyrosphere that sent the sphere backwards until it hit a tree and turned upside down. While the Ankylosaurs and the big white dino fought, Maya tried to get the gyrosphere upright but, with no avail.

Gray turned his head when the bigger dino snapped its jaws around the Ankylosaur's head and snapped it, effectively killing the dino. Zach's phone started to vibrate against the top of the sphere as Claire called him. He strained to reach it, to answer it.

"Zach," Gray called his name.

"Almost, got it." he answered.

"Zach, look!" Maya said this time.

Zach stopped trying to reach for his phone and looked down to see that his siblings were looking at the big dino eye that was looking back at them. Suddenly, the dino got up and stuck one of its claws into the glass where it had cracked due to the force of a swinging Ankylosaurs tail. When the dino managed to free its claw, seeing  it had created a small hole, it opened its mouth and tried to eat the gyrosphere. Gray started to scream in fear as the teeth of the dino had cracked the glass before it picked up the sphere and began to repeatedly slam it on the ground, effectively breaking the back of the sphere. Maya acted fast and unbuckled her seatbelt and Zach's before the three siblings fell out the back of the sphere. When the dino had picked the sphere up to smash it back down, the Mitchell siblings got up and took off running.
