Chapter XXIV | Half-Brothers
~¤~
It was already nighttime when Emily and Spartan head towards the nearest building, while traveling Emily was already half-asleep possibly from the purrs Spartan emitting.
He's been living out on his own for the past few years , then gets captured and drops to an unknown island but now he's overjoyed to see his mother once more.
Then he stops in his tracks, making Emily sat up from lying on his back. "What is it bud?" She ask. Her response was two roars which sounded like 'Burning bugs', sure enough looking up she saw flying insects that looks like locus being burned by fire, a few falling to their death. One burns Spartan's back making him screech at the sudden pain, luckily Emily kicked the dead bug off.
On all fours, Spartan booked into the trees while avoiding falling insects. But he stops when he caught a whiff of a new scent, a small hiss emits from the forest. In comes a black raptor but its larger than a velociraptor or any raptor — His black scales glow under the small fire as his orange eyes bore into Spartan red ones.
The I-Rex let out a snarl at the I-Raptor who did the same thing, ready to fight before hearing Emily say "Sombra?" The large Raptor lifts his head at the sound of his name, he knew this was his mother's voice but where was she?
Looking up he sees his mom on the large beast's back, he tilts his head in confusion, how did she get up there?
"Spartan could you lend me down please?" Emily asks.
With a reluctance snort, the I-Rex lowered his body for his mother to get down gently — Emily got down for her arms wrap around Sombra's. "I'm glad to see you too bud, I'm glad you're not hurt." But the Raptor eyes still glare at Spartan. "Oh, um, Sombra this is Spartan your half-brother. Spartan this is Sombra, you're both related." She introduce the hybrids.
Spartan was the first to step forward and sniff the I-Raptor's scent — He took notice that they're similar of sorts, similar quills and spike sprouts down to their tails, same posture but Spartan was bigger. Spartan then let out gurgle and grunts, Sombra response with a caw like that of a velociraptor and a wag of a tail. Spartan nod his head and let out a rumble.
"I guess we're friends now?" Emily ask with a nervous chuckle.
The brother stare at their mother before let out small roar of reassurance that they won't fight each other.
Then they turn at the sound of a car tumbling down, Spartan let out a roar as him and Sombra took off into the forest — Emily manage to saw them leave. "Wait! Boys!" With an annoyed growl she made her way towards the car where she's reunited by Claire, Owen and Kayla.
They could hear Maisie calling out for help, reaching towards the car where Maisie crawled out the car window where Emily, Claire and Owen proceeds to hug the teenager "I can't believe you actually came for me." Maisie said with tears in her eyes.
"Of course we did." Claire said with a sniffle.
Maisie turn to look at Kayla, " I remember you." She said.
"I remember you too." Kayla said back
Emily looks on to see three people walking from the car, she knew them as Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler and Ian Malcolm the survivors of the first Jurassic Park incident. "They helped me escape." Maisie spoke.
Claire walk up to Ellie to give her thanks, but then Kayla spoke up. "We gotta go. Gonna have to break a window to get inside that thing. Hope nobody's afraid of heights."
All of a sudden they all hear footsteps in the distance, followed by deep, throaty rumbling. The steps grow louder and louder as they close in on the group — Alan and Owen steps up and said in unison, "Don't move."
The shadow of the Giganotosaurus ominously emerging from the forest walking right up to them, and chomping on a nearby burning locust.
"What is that?" Ellie ask.
"Giganotosaurus." Alan replies. " Biggest carnivore the world has ever seen."
"Bigger. Why do they always have to go bigger?" Ian ask out loud.
The Giganotosaurus lets out a mighty roar as everyone proceeds to back away and hide at the back of the car, the large creature looks around while snarling as everyone slowly walks around the car — Eventually they make it out and everyone dashes to the ladder, Each of them climb up but the Giganotosaurus lunges at Emily and clamps down on the cage surrounding her. "Hustle!" Kayla urged her.
Emily continues climbing up the ladder and made it safety just when the Giganotosaurus rips the cage off the ladder, crushes the cage and tosses it aside while everyone else climbs up the ladder. But then the Giganotosaurus walks right up to them, leaning his head up to the top of the tower so he's eye to eye with the humans.
As the predator slowly opens his jaws to eat them, a large hiss caught his attention. He turn his head to see Sombra climbing on top of the busted car, his orange eye fueled with fury — He's ready to protect his mother at all cost, with a roar he pounce in the air and landed on the theropod's neck. The Giganotosaurus let out a mighty roar as he tried to the remove the hybrid off of him, buying some time for everyone to open the doors to head inside of the tower.
"See? Not so bad." Owen said in relief.
Then Sombra was tossed through the windows, covered in marks and broken glass as blood pour through his wounds. He stood up with a shake and let out a roar just when the Giganotosaurus ram his head through the glass making Owen fall on his back. The predator snaps at everything as it thrashes around violently, "Come on!" Owen yell out.
Then Emily's foot gets caught in a wire and she slips and falls. It reveals the Giganotosaurus was holding the wire as he pulls her right out of the window. Owen then leans forward and grabs Emily before the large carnivore could chomp down on her — Kayla then gets a rifle and shoots a dart at the theropods snout. Maisie then gets her taser and slides it to Emily, she then grabs it and tases the animal square in the eye along with Sombra's claw to literally slice the carnivore's eyeball out. The theropod lets out roar in pain and storm off.

After a while for everyone to catch their breath they're goal was to find the helicopter to fly back home — Claire holds up a flashlight stick as she leads the way with Ellie, Emily, Sombra, Owen, Ian and Alan following down a large control tunnel.
"So you trained this dinosaur?" Alan ask Emily.
"Yes." She replies. Staring at Sombra who sniff the ground in case of any predator tried to sneak attack them.
"I've never seen a dinosaur like him before." Alan said in fascination.
"Well, he's called the Indoraptor." Emily explains.
"Indomitable Thief." Alan translates.
"Yes, he's a hybrid between and Indominus Rex, another hybrid, and a velocirpator. He's created to be made a weapon but I've raised and trained him to be a regular animal." She concluded.
"Well you did a good job." Alan praised.
"Thank you."
Eventually they made it to the main controls everyone comes in to see the fires all across the valley through the window, "Whoa." Emily comments.
"This is very bad." Ian spoke.
Claire looks to the controls, "This is the same system we used at the park."
"Great. So we can turn on the the thing and then we all get outta here." Ian said while popping a snack into his mouth.
Claire typed the code for the ADS and the computer shows error 99, "What's this? What what's error 99?"
"Not enough power." A voice spoke up, everyone turn to see a man steps in named Ramsey Cole. "Gonna break down all available power and cease by the primary system to keep running. We need all that power to reactivate the ADS."
"So the system's safety features what's going to kill us?" Alan questions him.
"Of course." Kayla spoke up.
"How do we get more power?" Ellie ask.
"Uh well we can't but we can redistribute what we have." Ramsey responds. "We just need to."
"Shut down the primary system." Claire spoke.
"Yes exactly." Ramsey said.
"Where is it?" She ask.
"Uh next floor up."
"I'm coming with you." Ellie spoke up.
Maisie then points to a screen where she escapes from, "Where is that? Water treatment center?" Owen asked Ramsey. "Hydro electric system sub eight." Ramsey responds.
Owen nods his head. "Give me eight minutes I can find her."
"I'll come with you." Emily joins in.
"Wait." Ellie spoke. "Who's this now?"
"Beta." Maisie responds. "Blue's baby." At this point Sombra lifts his head up at the sound of the word 'Baby'.
"A baby raptor?" Alan questions.
"And you gave her a name. How about that?" Ian said.
" I made a promise we would bring her home." Owen said.
"You made a promise... to a dinosaur?" Ian question.
Owen nods, "You're come with us right?" Maisie ask.
"Maisie, I d-"
"Please." Maisie begged. Alan let out a sigh and nods his head.
Alan and Ellie give Ian individual walkie-talkies, "We'll be on channel five, okay?"
"We're on three." Ellie responds.
"Come back." Claire said to her husband.
Owen smiles, " I always come back."

Owen, Emily, Alan, and Maisie they enter the hydro system as they continue to look for Beta with Sombra in the lead. "B-4, she's in here." Maisie said while looking around with her flashlight, her free hand held onto Emily's hand.
"Watch the sides." Alan tells him. "They always Come from the sides. ya know at first we thought They disembow their prey but no, they're smart enough to go straight to the throat. The veins, The arteries, snaps both at the same time."
"Jesus." Emily comments.
They venture deep into the pipes around the chamber. Owen looks to see a light broken, "She was here. Lights off." Owen tells them. They did what they're told.
Suddenly beta emerges from the steam snarling and shrieking in defense with Alan shooting atranq dart but Beta dodging. "Dammit she's fast." Owen said.
"What do you think? She's a raptor." Emily informs him.
Beta leaps forward again and Owen aims the gun, Maisie rushes up in front of them and lifts her hand across from her. "Hey! Eyes on me." She tells the baby. All three eyed one another.
Sombra emerged and let out a grumble at Beta who looks at him with agitation in her eyes, Sombra lets out a gurgle of reassurance that they're here to help. "I've got a hitter on the side of the neck. Maisie, you're going to hold her focus? Grant, we'll triangulate i. Emily you'll tell Sombra to back up." Emily nods her head at Owen.
Alan then lifts his hand and walks a little ways away from Maisie with Owen doing the same. Emily let out a low whistle for Sombra who slowly leaves Beta's side — Beta then proceeds to run to the left giving Owen the time to tranquilizer her, Beta then slips and falls to the floor allowing the tranquilizer fluid to take its toll.
"Sorry girl. I promised your mom I'd get you home." Owen spoke up.
A/N: What do you guys think of the dynamic between Spartan and Sombra?
Or with Sombra and Beta?
