Ch. 12 Velociraptors

•--()--•

= FINALLY REACHING THE BUILDING. Alan was cradling Timmy in his arms before placing the kid on the table when they entered the dining hall. Lex joins their side while grey smoke escapes the nearest bathroom the big pterodactyl squeezed into, transforming back into Madison.

She slips on her clothes that were slightly torn, pants had rips and now she unfortunately lost her boots. Sighing heavily in annoyance. 'So much for stretch proof.' Madison deadpans.

Returning to the giant dinner hall, she finds only Lex and Tim gathered around the table. Stuffing their hunger with food they find.

"Where's the old man?" Madison asks the pair, eyebrows furrowing. The children shrugs their shoulders.

"He's gone to find the others." Lex informs her aunt as she passes the woman a cupcake. Something Madison takes and eats, humming at the soft texture.

Taking a seat beside Timmy, Madison began messing with his hair. Patting down any parts sticking up until she felt Lex kick her leg. "Lex?" She calls to the blonde child who was frozen in terror.

Turning her head over her shoulder. Madison's own eyes widens and she tosses Timmy once again over her shoulder and rushed to grab Lex.

"In here, quick." Madison whispers, opening the door to the kitchen as she snatches a few candy bars from the table and shoves them into her pant pockets. Quietly closing the metal door shut and moved through the kitchen.

Lex accidentally treads on objects, igniting a loud clutter noise which makes Madison drop to the floor. Lex beside her with a terror-stricken face and a hand placed carefully on her nephew's mouth. Hearing the gurgles of the all-too familiar.

"Go, quietly." Madison whispers into both their ears and pushes them gently to move.

Crawling along the floor, Madison kept her ears up. Listening to their every move as she kept a close eye on her niece and nephew. However, Tim knocks a metal piece and Madison is broken away from them. Eyes blown wide as a velociraptor head pokes through the side, luckily she could creep backwards into a square compartment.

Meeting the frightened eyes of Lex on the other aisle, Madison mouths 'go'. And the girl reluctantly does so with her brother trailing behind.

After a few moments, Lex could be heard crying while Tim was in Madison's view. Eyes wide at the sound of his sister. Following that, Madison carefully moves out and raises to her feet. Grabbing any objects she could get her hands on.

Following after Tim who sprints into the freezer, the velociraptor chasing after him and slipping up. Giving the boy a chance to escape all the while Madison grabs the arm of her niece when she was seen crawling out of a small tray compartment.

Slipping in between Timmy and the velociraptor lodged between the freezer door. Madison smirks.

"Freeze, Motherfucker!" She screams, ignoring if the other could hear as she slams the weapon into the head of the velociraptor. Hearing them cry out loud and step back as she continued her attack, pulling back when Lex and Tim were able to close it.

"We did it..." Lex whispers. Glancing to her Aunt who was staring at the door with a firm glare.

"With a rolling pin." Tim points out, making Madison realise that she had just hit a dinosaur repeatedly with a single wooden rolling pin.

"I can tick that off my bucket list." Madison grumbles, thinking if she had added hitting a dinosaur with a rolling pin was on it. Not that she even has a bucket list anyway.

Ignoring it, she keeps hold of the object and ushers the children out the kitchen. On their way to what they think are the control rooms, they stumble upon both Dr Ellie Sattler and Dr Alan Grant. Both them armed with a gun both.

"Alan!" The children cries out in a cheery mood, rushing over to hug the man who could feel their body shivering and trembling from the prior moment.

"We need to leave, they are in the damn kitchen." Madison tells the group, grabbing Lex's hand as they run to the control room. Somewhere that the female opens the door to and they enter.

"We can call for help?" Lex eagerly asks the group as Ellie shoots to be at the aid of the computers.

"We've got to reboot the system first." Ellie responds, turning the computers on while Alan shuts the door. Fingers sliding against the locks.

"The door locks! Ellie, boot up the door locks!" He shouts, breathing heavily and just as Madison turns to see what he was doing. She finds the man staring eye to eye with the velociraptor from the kitchen.

"They can use handles!" Madison shouts, lunging into action to help Alan keep the door closed while the Velociraptor turns the handle and began trying to shove the door open.

Ellie comes to their aid and gets more help and all the adults struggled till Madison has an idea.

"Open the door." Madison tells them, grabbing her trusty rolling pin.

"Are you crazy!? With a rolling pin?" Alan shouts in disbelief.

"Says you, shoving me out a tree while I was damn asleep." Madison scoffs, face shaking for a moment. "Trust me."

"Fine, Ellie?" The blonde woman shares a look of uncertainty with the male but nods either way. Allowing the door to open just as the purple and pink headed eighteen year old lunges forward.

"TAKE THIS BITCH!"

Madison roars, raising the wooden weapon above her head, Madison begins ruthlessly beating it into the head of the velociraptor. Knocking the creature back where it take a few steps back, leaving the girl to lower herself to the ground with slightly crouched legs. The weapon held securely in her hands.

There she stands, opposite a creature she raised since birth. Raised with Muldoon. She wonders what happened to him, but knowing something. It wasn't good.

The velociraptor bellows a calling sign to the female, recognising her as it now growls lower. Lunging forward to which she ducks and skids on her knees, spinning when she reaches where they previously were and uppercutting the wooden pin under the creatures chin.

"You leave the damn children!" Madison yells, rotating the pin around and forcing the object into their eye.

"Maddy!" Alan calls out to the female who then jumps back from the dinosaur that collects itself and hisses violently at the woman who simply slips between the door and the wall.

They close the door and the locks turn on. Allowing the group to breath as Timmy hugs his aunt. "The core systems are back up!" Ellie shouts the information.

Madison heaves and nuzzles her face into Timmy and Lex's hair, strained laughs echoing from her mouth. "This is a lesson for all of you, always carry a trusty rolling pin." She tells them.

Alan and Ellie laughs before Alan moves to pick up a phone and type a few buttons. Hearing it ring before Madison hears a familiar voice.

"Mr Hammond, the phones and system are working." Alan breaths heavily into the microphone as Madison stumbles forward, wanting to hear the familiar voice.

"Are the kids safe? What about Madison? Please tell me she's still alive." Hammond asks the man, unbeknownst to him. Madison was beside a relieved Alan Grant.

"The children are safe, and don't worry Madison is here after beating up a velociraptor." Alan grabs the girls head and rubs his thumb against her neck when seeing her exhausted self.

"Beating up a what-? Jesus, I knew not to be worried but this baboon here won't stop asking."

"Don't out me like that Hammond!"

They heard both Hammond and Malcolm bicker before John sighs and returns to the phone.

"Call the mainland. Tell them to send the damn helicopters." Alan tells the man before they all hear a loud crashing sound. Madison turning to see a velociraptor trying it's best to get in here.

"Go! Go!" Ellie shouts, pushing the group out of the room with the phone still turned on so that the pair on the other side could hear.

"My damn rolling-pin wasn't enough?"
