Unpredictable

The door closed quietly behind me and I looked to where the Velociraptor had pinned me to the ground only about fifteen minutes ago.

There was blood from both myself and the raptor but the animal was nowhere to be seen.

I crept forward slowly, as quiet as I could.

I rounded the corner and found the main doors. I slipped through and let out the breath I had been holding in.

I heard a shout and I bolted in the direction I'd heard it come from.

I turned down a corridor, narrowly missing tripping over a pot plant that had fallen over at some point.

The corridor opened out into a dining room that would have been one of the most beautiful rooms I'd ever seen if it were yesterday but since I was fighting for my life, I couldn't appreciate it the way I would have liked.

The walls were covered in detailed paintings of dinosaurs. Raptors and T-Rex's. Ferns and Stegosauruses. They were so beautifully done but my concerns were the screams I had heard.

Suddenly Lex and Tim ran out of the doors that must have led to the kitchen. There were tears running down Lex's face and Tim had an expression of fear plastered on it.

I held my arms out to them and they rushed into my arms.

"What's wrong?" I asked, looking down at the two youths.

"In there..." Lex pointed to the doors she and her brother had just fled from.

"Lyanna?" I heard a voice say from behind me. I turned and saw Alan and Ellie. I smiled grimly.

Alan was holding a gun. I wasn't sure where he got it from but I was glad he had it.

They strode over to us and checked the children.

"In there. It's coming," Lex stressed, jumping up and down with fear.

Alan pushed the children behind him and Ellie turned around, looking for the other exits.

"Control room?" I asked, hand on Lex's shoulder.

Alan nodded and the five of us took off the way we'd come in. We raced down halls and corridors, down stairs and through labs to find the control room, all the while we could hear the Velociraptor chasing us.

We found the room and rushed inside, Alan closing the door behind us. Ellie rushed to the computer.

"Can we call for help?" Lex asked.

"We have to reboot the system first," Ellie replied, sitting in the chair by one of the computers.

Ellie turned the computer on and I looked to Alan.

"The door locks. Ellie, turn on the door locks!" Alan was fiddling with the automatic door locks so he didn't notice the raptor head peering down at him through the window on the door.

I shrieked softly before running to the door, trying to help Alan keep it closed. The raptor was now trying to push it open to get to us. I threw my whole weight against the door and tried with all my might to keep it closed.

Ellie noticed our struggling and rushed over, abandoning the computer.

"What are you doing? No, get the locks on!" I gritted my teeth. Even with three people pushing against it, the raptor was still strong enough to overpower us if it really tried.

Tim was jumping up and down, panicking and I saw Lex turn to the computer. What was she doing? Does she know anything about computers? The teenager rushed to the computer and sat down, her brother right behind her.
