As Maya drove, she and her brothers spoke excitedly to one another, their voices overlapping each others as they were relieved to be safe and heading for the park. However, their excitement was short-lived when Gray saw something in the rearview mirror. He recognized a group of Pteranodons flying just above the trees.

"Go! Go! Go!" he shouts at his sister.

Maya's gaze flickered up to the rearview mirror before she focused on the road again and shifted the gear stick to drive even faster. When the park came into view, they started to shout to gain the guards' attention that stood atop of a gate. When they finally did, Maya drove right into the park. However, when the siblings climbed out of the jeep...their babysitter joined them again. The Pteranodons flew overhead and some started to attack park guests. That sent crowds into a panic. The Mitchell siblings broke into a run and Zara ran after them.

Main Street. The siblings were running down Main Street now, searching for their aunt since Zara had alerted her that she was with them again. Maya stuck an arm out in front of her brothers just as a Pteranodon flew down right in front of them. They took the moment to look around for any signs of Claire.

"Don't just stand there!" Zara told them.

Suddenly, she let out a scream causing the siblings to look where she had been standing. A Pteranodon had scooped her up into its mouth and took off with her. The Mitchell siblings watched in horror as another Pteranodon came out of nowhere and fought over her until she was dropped into the Mosasaurs exhibit. They made their way over to the exhibit and were terrified to watch when the Mosasaur leapt out the water to snatch the Pteranodon in the air that had picked up Zara. Their babysitter was eaten. The siblings started running away, looking for their aunt still, making sure to keep out of the way of people running and other Pteranodons.

"Look! There's Aunt Claire!" Gray exclaimed, pointing to their aunt that was standing on something.

Oh! And Owen's with her too. Wow, he's really hot. Maya thought to herself when she saw the familiar face with her aunt.

The siblings started to run once more, heading for their aunt when some uniformed guys held up their guns in their direction.

"No. Hold your fi-" Owen started saying before a smallish dinosaur jumped on his back.

Maya watched in alarm as guns were aimed at her and her brothers before realizing that they were aimed upwards. She watched as an armed man fired his gun before turning around to see what he had hit. A Pterodactyl was falling out of the air and heading straight for them. She pulled her brothers with her to run and move out of the way of the descending dino when the adrenaline took over. She shifted into her wolf form and split off from her brothers to avoid the dino that had hit the ground and was now sliding in the brothers' direction. Zach and Gray stumbled and fell back before scooting backwards to avoid the tip of the Pterodactyl's mouth, Zach putting his arm in front of Gray in a protective manner until the dead dinosaur stopped moving. The tip of its beak mere inches from them.

Maya (in her wolf form), left her brothers behind when she was sure they were safe and headed towards Owen, who was struggling with the dino that had jumped on him. She pounced on said dino, which she would come to learn was a Microceratus from Gray, and wrestled with the prehistoric beast before gaining the upper hand and taking the dinosaur's neck into her jaw and forcefully snapping it shut, successfully killing the dino. She then slowly approached Owen, licking her jaw clean of the blood before stopping in front of him. He looked down in the wolf in confusion which turned into surprise when the wolf became Maya.

She rubbed the back of her neck out of embarrassment and looked down at the ground. Maya was surprised when Owen tilted her face up so she was looking at him before he leaned downwards and captured her lips in a kiss. She reciprocated the kiss after her initial shock wore off and when they parted for air, Owen drew her in for a hug. When Maya looked away from Owen, she saw Claire running right for her after she had checked on her brothers.

"Oh my god, are you okay?" she asks her in concern, taking Maya's face into her hands.

"Who's this?" Zach asks, gesturing to Owen.

Claire turned to both Zach and Gray, who had walked up behind her when she ran to Maya.

"This is Owen. We work together." she introduces the Velociraptor trainer.

Noticing that Owen still had his arms around Maya, Gray took his sister's hand and pulled her away from him, beginning to act like a protective little brother. Maya looked down at Gray and noticed he was glaring at Owen before Zach threw his arm around her shoulders.

"Stay away from our sister," Zach warns Owen.

Gray nodded his head in agreement while Maya became flustered in embarrassment due to her brothers. Then, the five of them started walking quickly, wanting to find shelter. Claire was on her phone again when it rang.

"What do you mean "use the raptors?"" she asks, whoever was on the other end of the line, in confusion.

Owen stops walking suddenly, causing the Mitchell siblings to look at him in confusion.

"Son of a bitch." he says in a slightly annoyed tone.

"You shouldn't say bitch," Gray comments.

Owen then turns to Claire, "Take them, and get them someplace safe," he tells her, gesturing to her niece and nephews.

Then, some Pteranodons flew overhead and they watched them fly over big double doors and over the park. The doors were suddenly pushed open by crowds of people that had been pounding at the doors until they opened. The group of five slowly backed away as people started running out until they backed into a jeep. They turned around and climbed into the Jeep. Owen got into the driver's seat, Claire got into the passenger's side and the Mitchell siblings piled into the back. Owen started up the Jeep before backing up off to the side to watch as tons of people ran in front of the jeep, trying to get to safety.

"This doesn't feel very safe," Zach comments.

"Can we stay with you?" Gray asked aloud in curiosity.

"I am never leaving you guys again for as long as you live," Claire answers.

"No, no. Him." Gray tells her, pointing at Owen.

Zach copied him and Claire looked at Owen, who looked back at her.

"Yeah, definitely him." Maya agreed.

Owen looked through the rearview mirror at Maya before he threw the Jeep into drive and headed in the direction of the Velociraptor paddock.
