Dawn of Extinction: Jurassic Park (Part6)
By Carnotaur3
64 EXT. TREE HOUSE – DAY 64
LEVINE throws the pack back down on the table and starts
to unpack stuff.
He is caught unaware when MALCOLM and REGIS show up in
the TREE HOUSE from climbing up the ladder.
LEVINE
What are you still doing
here?
MALCOLM
We had told THORNE to come here so we
could all leave together.
LEVINE
Oh.
LEVINE begins to work again, taking notes on things in
his journal.
REGIS notices him writing.
REGIS
What are you working on?
LEVINE
Things…
REGIS
You think you could be more spacific.
LEVINE
No…
REGIS looks at him with disgust. LEVINE gives in.
LEVINE (cont’d)
Ok… I’m estimating the population of
dinosaurs.
REGIS
What is the current status?
LEVINE
A little over 200.
MALCOLM
Well, if the number is growing, then
we must warn the Costa Rican
government as soon as we get out of
here.
LEVINE
The population is decreasing.
MALCOLM
What?
LEVINE
It was over 300. They are dying, Ian.
It’s dawn of extinction for them.
From what I don’t know.
REGIS
That’s good.
LEVINE
Not for me. There is so much to
discover here.
MALCOLM rolls his eyes.
LEVINE (cont’d)
Can you think of anything, Ian, that’s
making them die out
MALCOLM
Maybe the earth is finally realising
they don’t belong here anymore…hell I
don’t know, Richard. Could be anything.
LEVINE (cont’d)
You still need to warn…the raptors are
coming closer to people. Soon, they’ll
be comfortable to hunt them down when
there is more of them around. The
closest place near here is Heredia…
Popluation: 550,000 people. It’ll be a
buffet for them.
REGIS
Damn, where are they?
MALCOLM
I guess we’ll have to contact them.
CUT TO:
65 INT. CAR – DAY 65
THORNE rolled his head around, creaking his neck.
THORNE
Ready to go?
ARBY
Yeah!
THORNE turns the ignition on then he looks over.
THORNE
Something’s not right.
ARBY and LAURIE looked from the windows. Everything is
quiet.
From out of nowhere, a VELOCIRAPTOR comes full speed up
to the windshield of the car and strikes the glass with
its foot. The foot goes through and hits THORNE in the
head. He is now got his foot on the gas and unconscious.
He is on the steering wheel and veering it left,
causing them to go into circles endlessly. LAURIE jumps
into the passenger seat and nudges THORNE.
LAURIE
Jack, wake up…wake up, Jack!
She tries hard to get him out of the seat but he won’t
budge.
The raptor on the windshield is now hanging on the side
of the car for dear life. Other raptors come into view
trying to grab a hold of something on the vehicle.
ARBY looks to his right and sees a RAPTOR coming
straight at him. It smashes the glass in and grabs onto
the rim of the window for support. The RAPTOR snaps at
ARBY, but he moves back to the other side.
CUT TO:
66 EXT. TREE HOUSE – DAY 66
MALCOLM takes the Walkie-talkie to his mouth, presses
the button and speaks.
MALCOLM
Thorne…you there?
CUT TO:
67 INT. CAR – DAY 67
ARBY looks over at the back of the AZTEK and sees the radio…MALCOLM is on it.
MALCOLM (cont’d)
Thorne, come in, over.
ARBY reaches over for it just as the raptor sticks its
ugly head out to bite him. It misses by inches and ARBY
takes the Walkie-talkie in his hands.
ARBY
Dr. Malcolm!
CUT TO:
68 EXT. JUNGLE – DAY 68
The car swerves as LAURIE tries with all her strength
to get THORNE out of the seat.
The vehicle ends up driving onto a steep cliff and it
stops as LAURIE presses her foot to the pedal.
Now the car is rocking over the small ravine.
The raptors jump on to the car without any hesitation
and it gives way, tumbling down into the lush jungle
foliage. Soon, they all see the river in front of them
and LAURIE screams in the car.
It splashes into the river and is dragging on the
bottom.
CUT TO:
69 EXT. RIVER – DAY 68
ARBY takes the radio above the water that is seeping in.
LAURIE
ARBY come over here.
ARBY
Malcolm! Were in the river.
MALCOLM
What?
ARBY
Were…
Something bangs against the glass. ARBY looks over. He
doesn’t see anything but large rocks.
THORNE awakes to water.
THORNE
What the hell is…
LAURIE
Help open the door.
THORNE stops and tries to get the door open.
Suddenly, the flow of the car increases and they are now
bouncing up and down with more water coming in.
It hits rocks, pivots and turns around going backwards.
More water seeps through as a rock cracks a glass
window.
MALCOLM (cont’d)
Arby…are you there?
ARBY speaks again.
ARBY
Dr. Malcolm, were going down the river…
hurry!
CUT TO:
70 EXT. TREE HOUSE – DAY 70
MALCOLM looks over towards the river up ahead, then to
REGIS. They both immediately run to the ladder and drop
to the ground. LEVINE watches from above.
REGIS
Hurry!
CUT TO:
71 EXT. RIVER – DAY 71
By the time MALCOLM and REGIS get over to the flowing
river, the car has rounded the bend and out of sight.
MALCOLM
(YELLING)
Thorne!
REGIS
(YELLING)
Arby! Laurie!
CUT TO:
72 INT. CAR – DAY 72
ARBY drops the walkie-talkie in the water and it slips
into the seats.
THORNE kicks in a window and looks into the water.
Something wasn’t right. There was some kind of animal
in the bottom…and then it happened. The dark bluish
figure changed color to a brownish green. It had two
small horns protruding from the top of its brows. It
has a massive body with a small head and bulldog snout
It was a CARNOTAURUS SASTREI.
It strikes at THORNE and comps on the door.
THORNE
We’ve got company. Arby, go to Laurie
and hold on to something.
CUT TO:
73 EXT. RIVER – DAY 73
The CARNOTAUR grabs the back of the vehicle with its
mouth and keeps it from going down the gorge. Then,
still holding it with it’s jaws, it takes its foot and
slams it on the roof of the car.
It roars and then takes apart some of the roof revealing
the humans inside.
THORNE
Go! Now, go!
THORNE pushes LAURIE and ARBY out of the way from the
opening.
The CARNOTAURUS decides to roll the vehicle over with
its mouth.
After it has overturned, LAURIE, ARBY, and THORNE slip
out from one of the windows.
The CARNOTAUR didn’t notice any of them; it is too
busy picking at the pipes and metal underneath the car.
They reach the bank of the river as soon as the
CARNOTAURUS realises they have run away.
It roars in agitation and swims after them.
They run back into the jungle, breathing heavily on each
stride.
CUT TO:
74 EXT. JUNGLE – DAY 74
Running through the jungle, THORNE, ARBY, and LAURIE run
to a tree, climbing it.
LAURIE grabs ARBY and pushes him up to the branches and
he grabs one pulling himself over it.
THORNE
Hurry, Arb. Go now.
He keeps climbing, not hesitating at all.
We can here the CARNOTAURUS coming…faster and faster.
LAURIE and THORNE make it up the tree, hiding in the
leaves.
Now, the CARNOTUAR comes into view, looking around the
area and sniffing the air for a particular odor in the
atmosphere that it might have smelt with the humans.
Then, it surprisingly retreats back into the jungle
shaking its head because of its missing prey.
THORNE breathed in heavily and looked over at ARBY.
THORNE
You ok, little Arb?
ARBY
(CONFIDENT)
I’m fine. I can take care of myself.
THORNE gave a weak smile.
LAURIE
Honey, let me fix your head.
THORNE
Laurie, I’m fine.
He starts to climb up some more to see over the trees.
He looks up seeing that the sun up ahead is setting. A
beautiful array of red glaring from the clouds that was
hanging under the sky.
ARBY
What you doing?
THORNE
Come on up and see.
ARBY and LAURIE climb up.
Looking over the foliage they find the sunset, over a
plain with dozens of dinosaurs eating on the grass and
leaves. The horizon is very far away. We can’t tell what dinosaurs are down there.
LAURIE
Wow. It’s beautiful. Yeah, you can’t
see this back home, I’ll tell you.
THORNE
Yeah, that’s for damn sure.
ARBY
Yeah. I miss home. I miss mom and dad.
THORNE rubbed his head.
THORNE
I know you do, bud.
ARBY
I should have listened to you, Jack.
I’m so sorry.
LAURIE
Hey, Arb. We’re all stuck in a bad
situation, but we can get out.
ARBY
I hope your right.
THORNE
Laurie’s always right.
They both lay down on the tree.
THORNE
So much for comfort.
ARBY lays his head on THORNE’S shoulder.
ARBY
Hey, Jack?
THORNE
Yeah, bud?
ARBY
This is the longest we’ve ever spent
together.
THORNE looks to ARBY and smiles.
THORNE
You’re right.
ARBY starts to doze off on THORNE’S shoulder in a matter
of seconds.
THORNE (cont’d)
Hey, Arb?
ARBY
(ALMOST ASLEEP)
Yeah.
THORNE
I love you, bro.
Now, ARBY is asleep. THORNE looks to LAURIE.
LAURIE
I love you, Jake.
THORNE
I love you too.
They both start to go into slumber.
FADE TO:
75 EXT. TREE HOUSE – DAY 75
LEVINE is leaning over the railing of the TREE HOUSE
watching herbivores pass by.
MALCOLM is talking with REGIS
MALCOLM
We can drive down the river tomorrow,
see if we can find it they are still
alive. I guess we’ll have to leave
Levine here.
REGIS
I guess. You think by then the
satellite phone will be working?
MALCOLM
I sure hope so.
REGIS
I’ll keep checking it.
MALCOLM
Ok.
MALCOLM walks off to a chair and sits down. REGIS takes
to the direction of LEVINE.
REGIS
So…what are you doing now.
LEVINE
Studying the mating rituals.
REGIS
Oh…of what?
LEVINE
You see the two dinosaurs down there
that are built like a tank?
REGIS
Yeah.
LEVINE
Those are Ankylosaurs. What they do
is they duke it out with other males
to win the heart of the female.
Sometimes it can lead to death. I’ve
been fascinated with this technique.
It’s almost like rams.
REGIS
Yeah.
An awkward silence comes. Suddenly, we know REGIS is got something to say.
REGIS (cont’d)
Do you care about what is happening
at all?
LEVINE
Well, yeah. I feel sorry for them.
But there’s nothing I can do about
it.
REGIS
I find your lack I faith for your
friends very disturbing, Dr. Levine.
You’ve conquered science, but you
haven’t conquered friendship.
Malcolm needs your help.
LEVINE
Listen, Regis, some bad things happen
and there’s nothing you can do about
it.
REGIS
There is something.
LEVINE
What?
REGIS
Compassion. Without it your just a
living brain…no personality…no care
about anything really important. That
makes you a complete ass.
MALCOLM is watching all this happening in the chair.
Did REGIS get through to LEVINE? We don’t know as of yet.
REGIS (cont’d)
The only way people can get through things
is faith and help. And by God, me and
Malcolm are going to help them out.
I hope you will join us.
REGIS walks off to the ladder. LEVINE continues to watch
the animals, but we can see he’s really pondering on what
REGIS had said.
