*This Story Takes Place After The First Movie.
Chapter 1
Henry Wu swipes his key card and enters a room maked "Lab 4b". The door closes behind him. The lab is empty and quiet except for the soft humming of the computers. He checks something on a computer and makes a note on the chart he is holding. He leaves the computer and continues marking notes on his chart.
As he looks up form his chart he sees he is no longer in the lab but walking along a path through the jungle. He pauses for a moment and looks behind him. Just more jungle. He shrugs it off and continues on down the path as if nothing strange has just happened.
As he continues down the path he sees a small stone building, kind of like a bunker of some sort, about a hundred yards away. After he walks a few more feet he hears something behind him.
He turns. Nothing. He turns back and continues. Fifty yards from the bunker he hears it again. He spins around faster this time. He jumps back startled. John Hammond stands just inches before him.
"Hello, Henry." He says in a casual way.
"You scared the hell out of me John." Henry turns to continues down the path.
Hammond follows just a little behind. Henry looks back at the old man and again is startled and almsot falls to the ground.
A raptor is walking alongside him where Hammond was. The raptor looks at him as he stumbles. Henry drops his clip board and runs for the bunker door. The raptor screeches from behind. Henry reaches the door swings it open and steps inside.
Henry is now falling. He falls for just a second and lands in water. He emerges and takes a breath. He is in a swimming pool. He swims over to the side and climbs out. He walks over and sits at a chair as calm as could be. There is a glass of ice tea on a small table. He takes a drink and sets it back down. He lies back in the chair and shuts his eyes.
"Henry." A voice calls out. "Henry!"
Henry opens his eyes to see a raptor in his face.
Henry jumps awake in his bed. His brother Michael jumps back startled.
"Jesus, Henry." Michael said. "You scared the shit out of me."
Henry wipes his eyes and looks around.
"What time is it?" He asks annoyed.
"It's three in the morning. Having a bad dream?"
"What?"
"A dream, where you having one?" Michael asks again.
"Oh, I...I don't know. I mean if I was I can't remember." Henry said.
"Anyways some weirdo just called for you. Said for you to meet him the waffle house on the corner of Bishop and King in an hour."
"Who was it.?"
"He said you would know. He sounded inpatient as hell and said it was very important."
"Damnit." Henry climbs out of bed and heads for the bathroom.
"What is this all about?" Asked Michael.
"I don't know. But I know who it is and he is pissing me off."
"Who is it?"
Henry enters the bathroom and shuts the door. "It's Lewis Dodgson!"
Micheal thinks for a moment then remembers the name. "Dodgson? What the hell does he want?"
Henry Parks his car in the parking lot of the waffle house. It is pouring outside. He is amazed that he lived through the drive. He could barley see a thing. He pulls the hood from his jacket over his head and steps out of the car.
He walks insided. The small waffle house is empty except for a man sitting the back drinking a cup of coffee. Dodgson.
"Good evening sir, well morning actually." Said a elderly waitress. "Can I get you a cup of coffee?"
"Yes please."
He heads to the back where Dodgson is sitting and sits down.
Dodgson takes another sip. "You're late."
"Very obsverant." Henry responds.
The waitress walks over and brings his coffee.
"Thank you." He says.
He waits for the waitress to walk away. "What do you want Dodgson? I thought we had an understanding? I want nothing to do with you or Bioysn."
"Things have changed. I have some information I think you might find interesting."
"I doubt it."
"Remember three days ago?"
"Yes."
"You had visitors on your little island?"
"Maybe."
"Do you know that four people are dead?"
Henry sets his coffee down. "What?"
"Yep. A Mr. Arnold, Mr. Muldoon, Mr. Generro, and Mr. Nedry are all dead." Dodgson says taking another sip.
"How would you know this?" He asked.
"I have contacts in the Costa Rican goverment. They will tell you anything for the right price."
"You lie. The Costa Rican goverment knows nothing about what we are doing."
"They do now. Dr. Grant and the surivors told them and lets just say they are less than thrilled."
Wu slouches back in his seat.
"Shocking I know. But it is true."
Henry sits in silence.
"Henry listen to me. It's not to late. Your a brilliant man but INGEN is doomed. This incident will destroy them. Come work for us Henry and continue your work."
"What about my team?"
"Bring them if you can."
"I'll need to get the embryos from the park labs. If not then we'll lose a lot of time and money starting over."
"I am aware of this and already have a plan for it. However, there is very little time."
"Why?"
"The Costa Rican is taking the island back. INGEN has one week to clear out and then they are going to carpet bomb the island. Seems they look at your animals as a biological hazard."
"Jesus." Henry says.
"You need to convince Hammond to let you go back to salvage the embryos."
"Oh, I don't think that will be a problem. He won't let those go to waste."
"Good. Here take this." Dodgson hands him a cell phone. "I'll contact you tomorrow night with the details."
Henry stands to leave.
"Remeber we have one week." Dodgson says.
