city dinosaurs dystopian future futuristic sifi

Two centuries ago, scientists brought back smaller and smarter versions of dinosaurs. However, these creatures turned against humanity, sparking a nuclear world war that left most of the world uninhabitable, except for what remains of the United States. To protect the survivors, a massive wall was built to keep the dinosaurs out and to prevent people from venturing into the dangerous wilderness beyond.

When the first John Howard rose to power, he established a communist regime and introduced "The Compromise": families are periodically sacrificed to the dinosaurs to prevent them from attacking the rest of the country. For over 200 years, this grim tradition has continued, and now, John Howard IV rules as president.

The Thompson family believes they are safe from being chosen, but they are about to be proven terribly wrong. Selected based on their wealth, they are sent out as sacrifices along with seven other families. As they face numerous challenges and uncover shocking secrets that could topple John Howard's regime, the Thompsons must confront not only the deadly dinosaurs but also their own dark family secrets. 

Will they survive the dangers that lurk beyond the wall? Every step they take brings new threats, but this family is determined to fight for their lives and return home.All Rights Reserved

The Realization by Clarissa_is_broke

Takes place four years after the events of The Lost World. Ian and Clarissa Malcolm are peacefully living with their son Owen Grady who is now twenty-one and has enlisted as a Navy SEAL. After a lecture Alan Grant and Clarissa Malcolm did together, they were approached by a man offering to fund Grant's research if he gave him and his wife an illegal aerial tour of Isla Sorna. Upon telling Ian about what was going on, Ian was very against the idea, knowing that something might go wrong. Clarissa assured her husband that nothing would go wrong and it was a quick flight tour and no ground activity. Ian agreed and told her to contact him if something happened and he would immediately call their son to go get her. "No way in hell am I letting you do this, Clare." "It's just a plane. No ground activity. If it was anything but I would decline, I'll be fine." "You son of a bitch! This is why I shut down all of the projects my father wanted to do! People will die more than they already have!" "Why do the dinosaurs not want to hurt you, Clary?" "We've been trying to find that out for years, Alan." "Mom!" "Owen!"

Legacy [ Jurassic World] by kmbell92

Dinosaurs roamed the Earth over 65 million years ago, but in 1993, a man by the name of John Hammond with the help of geneticist introduced them to a new world. He brought in several people to the island of Isla Nublar in order to endorse the idea of a dinosaur theme park. A park where people could interact with living and breathing dinosaurs. Among those people were Dr. Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler. The park trial failed resulting in death and the shut down of Jurassic Park. In 2015, Simon Masrani and his company Masrani Global had shown their interpretation of John Hammond's dream with Jurassic World amusement park operating in full swing. However, the park went into full chaos when a hybrid called the Indominus Rex escaped and wreaked havoc all over until it was stopped by heroes Keira Grant and Owen Grady with the help of friends and trusty (somewhat) velociraptors. Jurassic World was in shambles and was turned into a sanctuary, redesigned to protect the dinosaurs. After hitting a few speed bumps, Isla Nublar became a safe haven. Theodore Alan Grady was born under the two legends who run the sanctuary. Growing up from birth in the presence of dinosaurs, seeing an Apatosaurus sun bathing is nothing to look twice at for the teenager. Living on an island where every animal there is considered a miracle, Theo is trying to find his own calling. But with such incredibly influential names in his family, how could he ever amount to that level of greatness? With the darkest hour approaching, will he rise to the occasion of being a hero ?
