Dawn of Extinction: Jurassic Park (Part 9)
By Carnotaur3
103 INT. LAB – DIM 103
ARBY starts to look in drawers of a nearby desk when
MALCOLM slowly walks into the lab. He notices how ARBY
looks bored and goes over to talk.
MALCOLM
Hi Arby.
ARBY
Hi.
MALCOLM
I don’t think we ever got the chance
at…uh…getting to know each other.
ARBY
Why would you want to talk to me?
MALCOLM
Uh, I’ve got children as well, Arb.
Three of them, actually. But the other
two are with Ex Mrs. Malcolm.
(Chuckles)
Sadly, I miss them. The one that lives
with me is Kelly. She was adopted.
ARBY
How old is she?
MALCOLM
She’s 18.
ARBY
Oh.
MALCOLM falls silent.
ARBY (cont’d)
Dr. Malcolm…
MALCOLM
Yes?
ARBY
You don’t like dinosaurs…do you?
MALCOLM
Well, I could consider that since
I’ve been chased by them three times.
ARBY
You know what I mean. First seeing
them is…well…extraordinary…I think.
MALCOLM
Arb, your not visiting a zoo. Your
not petting domesticated animals.
They haven’t been trained to go to
the bathroom on top of the newspaper
on the floor. Your in a place of
death and terror. The only way to
stay alive is know what it is…not
what you want it to be.
ARBY
So, they were never meant to be here…
Then, if they are still here…what
does it mean?
MALCOLM
They won’t be here for long.
ARBY
Did you not have one second of awe
when you saw them…just one second?
MALCOLM
That was a long time ago, Arby. I’m
wiser.
THORNE walks into the lab.
THORNE
Guess what!
MALCOLM
What?
THORNE
Just 100 hundred yards away is a jeep
and a gas station!
MALCOLM
(Smiling)
You’re kidding?
THORNE
Kid not.
MALCOLM
Great, are you going over there now?
THORNE
Yep.
He leaps over some objects and out the lab door.
ARBY
Be careful, Jack!
CUT TO:
104 EXT. PATH – DAY/CLEAR 104
The rain has stopped, leaving wet puddles in random
spots. THORNE skips across the muddy ground towards the
gas station.
He moves to the pumps checking them out. He pulls one of
them out of the hole and the head falls off to the
ground.
THORNE
(WHISPERING)
Shit…
CUT BACK TO:
105 EXT. ROOF – NIGHT/RAINY 105
MALCOLM busts down the door to the roof and walks to the
edge, looking down. Behind him follows LAURIE and ARBY.
He looks down.
MALCOLM
(TO HIMSELF)
Where are you, Thorne?
LAURIE looks down too.
LAURIE
It couldn’t take this long.
MALCOLM
Unless something’s happen.
LAURIE
I don’t think so.
LEVINE comes through the roof door.
LEVINE
I’ve secured the doors and lit a bon
fire.
MALCOLM
Good. If Thorne comes back, be ready
to get him back in.
ARBY shakes his head.
ARBY
(TO LAURIE)
He should be here.
LEVINE looks at the trees. His eyes caught something…
Shadows…
LEVINE
Ian, you see this?
MALOLM
Uh, see what?
LEVINE turns again toward the shadows. His eyes
were adjusting to the dark and he was making out
the unusual swaying motion of the tree tops.
Something was in the trees.
LEVINE
The trees, Ian!
He points towards them.
MALCOLM
Oh…God. Hurry, Thorne.
CUT TO:
106 EXT. GAS STATION – NIGHT/RAINY 106
THORNE places two wires together under the steering
wheel, but all we can hear is the engine trying to
start, the low rumbling of disappointment.
THORNE shakes his head.
THORNE
Gas.
He moves over to another pump and this time the pump
works.
THORNE (cont’d)
Ah, yes.
CUT TO:
107 EXT. ROOF – NIGHT/RAINY 107
LAURIE looks around, holding ARBY in her arms. A soft
screeching sound of metal can be heard next to ARBY and
he begins to look over the edge. A three fingered hand
claws at him and snags his shirt, jerking him over the
roof.
LAURIE
Arby!
She claws in the air for ARBY and snatches his hand.
ARBY
Hold on to me, Laurie.
From above, LAURIE can see that the RAPTOR’S hand is
hanging on his shoe, and it is snarling.
MALCOLM and LEVINE run to help when ARBY’S hand slipps
out of LAURIE’S fingers.
ALL
Arby!
All they can hear is the sound of his body hitting
the dark down below.
CUT TO:
108 EXT. GROUND – NIGHT/RAINY 108
ARBY looks around, his head hurts so he rubs it.
Something wet catches his hand. He can tell its
blood from the bon fire.
For a moment he’s dazed, when memory flashes back to
him. The VELOCIRAPTOR that had fallen is now looking
around for him. ARBY quickly crawls around, searching
for anything that would help him. A few feet next to
the corner of the building was a small ALUMINIUM BAR
CAGE.
The RAPTOR sees his prey close the cage and the keys to
the lock drop to the ground. ARBY reaches for them but
the RAPTOR snatches it up. The elastic band around the
key snaps onto the lower jaw of the ferocious beast. It
rears back in surprise and picks at its face with its
claws frantically trying to scoot it off. ARBY can hear
the group’s yelling from above and can see that there
are even more RAPTORS. About twelve.
To his surprised all of them were coming toward the
cage, sniffing. ARBY breaths heavily and holds onto the
bars, scooting back.
The closest RAPTOR snapped at the bars, then, feels
them with its tongue. Seconds later, it makes a call
for help. The other RAPTORS came to the cage, scooting
it with their jaws, feet, and hands into the jungle.
CUT TO:
109 EXT. ROOF – NIGHT/RAINY 109
MALCOLM watches the animals progress, studying what they
are doing.
LAURIE
Oh, God, Arby! Oh, God!
LEVINE
I think they are…
MALCOLM
Taking him to their nest.
LEVINE
Yeah.
LEVINE sees the JEEP coming from ahead. LEVINE runs
toward the rooftop door and down the steps.
LAURIE
He’s going to save him!
CUT TO:
110 EXT. OUTSIDE BUILDING – NIGHT/RAINY 110
LEVINE races out the door and picks up a piece of wood
from the fire. He waves it through the air keeping away
the RAPTORS. They scream is frustration. Suddenly,
THORNE’S JEEP dead stops in back of LEVINE.
THORNE
(Yelling from the open window)
What’s going on.
LEVINE manages to move towards the front passenger side
door and open it to jump in.
CUT TO:
111 INT. JEEP – DARK 111
LEVINE rolls down the window and jumps in with the
torch still in his hand. He keeps it outside the
window.
THROEN drives off leaving the rest of the RAPTORS
behind.
THORNE
What’s going…
LEVINE
Arby’s stuck in a cage and the
raptor’s have taken him.
THORNE
Ah, shit!
CUT TO:
112 EXT. JUNGLE – DARK 112
The cage rolls down a small ditch. ARBY’S grunts are
low. He’s loosing energy and can’t fight it off.
The RAPTORS continue to roll the cage.
CUT TO:
113 EXT. ROOF – NIGHT/RAINY 113
LAURIE and MALCOLM look down below at the carnivores,
when something catches LAURIE’S eye.
A MOTORCYCLE.
It’s laying close to where the cage was.
LAURIE
There’s a motorcycle down there.
MALCOLM watches the RAPTOR with the key walk into the
jungle, still poking at its face.
MALCOLM
I’ll hold them off. Go after the one
with the key.
They both run to the door.
CUT TO:
114 EXT. JUNGLE – NIGHT/RAINY 114
The JEEP rolls over bushes and foliage as it increases
speed at the small objects up ahead.
CUT TO:
115 INT. JEEP – DARK 115
THORNE’S grip on the wheel is tight as he turns.
THORNE
Where is he…do you see?
LEVINE
I see something.
THORNE
Is it him?
LEVINE
I don’t know. Calm down.
LEVINE squints. He pokes his head out the open window.
LEVINE (cont’d)
Wait, it is him.
CUT BACK TO:
116 EXT. OUTSIDE BUILDING – NIGHT/RAINY 116
MALCOLM takes a torch from the fire and flings it at a
RAPTOR’S face. The animal gets burnt on the side. It
screams but can’t get by.
MALCOLM
Hurry, Laurie!
LAURIE, behind him, is pouring a bucket of gasoline in
the MOTORCYCE. There’s only enough to take it out for a
couple of minutes. She pulls the MOTORCYCLE up and
jumps on.
MALCOLM throws the torch down and jumps on the back.
MALCOLM (cont’d)
You know how to drive?
LAURIE
Of course!
She twists the right bar and flies toward the RAPTOR
with the key.
CUT TO:
117 EXT. JUNGLE – NIGHT/RAINY 117
The JEEP stops at the edge of a waterbed. The cage is
laying in it with the RAPTORS snarling. The closest
jumps on the front of the vehicle, screaming.
LEVINE swats at it with the torch. The other RAPTORS
jump back from the cage.
LEVINE
Get back!
The leap backward some more. They are now jumping up
and down…agitated.
THORNE
Come on!
THORNE jumps out of the vehicle when the coast is clear.
He grabs the cage up in his arms. Since it is aluminium
it’s not all that heavy. ARBY is knocked out inside the
cage.
THORNE heaves it in the back of the JEEP and retreats
to the DRIVER’S seat.
LEVINE throws the torch at the ferocious RAPTORS and
goes back to the JEEP.
The JEEP takes off at enormous speeds and we aren’t
surprised when the RAPTORS follow behind going just as
fast. One of the RAPTORS hooks onto the nerf bar.
CUT TO:
118 EXT. JUNGLE – NIGHT/RAINY 118
The MOTORCYCLE goes along beside the RAPTOR, its
heaving body keeping a steady pace. MALCOLM reaches
over with one hand to the lower jaw of the carnivore.
It snaps back, nearly biting off his hand. MALCOLM
shows disgust for it and continues to grab the key. It
snaps again.
Frustrated, MALCOLM grabs for it quickly and the key
slides off into his hands. At the same time, he hits
LAURIE and she looses control of the MOTORCYCLE making
it slide onto the ground and knocking the RAPTOR off
its feet, unconscious.
LAURIE and MALCOLM roll continuously on the ground until
they dead stop.
CUT TO:
119 INT. JEEP – DARK 119
As THORNE drives he watches the rear view mirror seeing
the ALPHA MALE RAPTOR on the nerf bar crawl up and grab
the cage with its mouth.
THORNE
Take the wheel!
LEVINE takes it while THORNE runs to the back. Before
the RAPTOR could get the cage out, THORNE grasps one of
the bars and holds tightly.
The RAPTOR tugs, but THORNE just keeps pulling it back.
In the drivers seat, LEVINE makes the JEEP swerve to
the right, trying to get the RAPTOR off, but it won’t
budge. Two more RAPTORS are coming up from the left
side of the vehicle; LEVINE can see this from the left
side mirror.
LEVINE
Oh, no.
CUT TO:
120 EXT. JUNGLE – NIGHT/RAINY 120
One of the FEMALE RAPTORS pounces on top of the canopy,
its weight tearing it apart and falling into the back
of the jeep.
CUT TO:
121 INT. JEEP – DARK 121
The FEMALE RAPTOR falls on the top of the cage. ARBY,
inside finally opens his eyes and sees it, snarling at
him.
ARBY screams and THORNE kicks at the animal, sending it
out of the back of the JEEP. It almost knocks over the
ALPHA MALE RAPTOR.
The carnivore clings on and then starts to walk toward
THORNE.
LEVINE watches the RAPTOR from the rear view mirror. We
can see he’s stuck between decisions. He’s about to do
something really daring and risky.
LEVINE sees that he’s on a long field so he puts the
JEEP in cruise control and leaps back onto the RAPTOR
sending them both flying out of the vehicle.
CUT TO:
122 EXT. FIELD – NIGHT/RAINY 122
LEVINE hits the ground hard, feet first. His back is
thrown out and it takes him a couple of seconds to pull
his head up.
CUT TO:
123 INT. JEEP – DARK 123
THORNE jumps back into the drivers seat and take it off
of cruise control. Then, he turns the JEEP around back
to LEVINE.
CUT TO:
124 EXT. FIELD – NIGHT/RAINY 124
The ALPHA MALE RAPTOR kicks LEVINE in the stomach. He
spits up blood onto the mud and falls back down to the
ground. LEVINE, as we can see, has been beaten very
severely.
The RAPTOR attempts to pounce when the JEEP hits it
head on, knocking it at a tree.
THORNE gets out and pulls LEVINE into the JEEP just as
another batch of RAPTORS come into view.
The JEEP drives off.
CUT TO:
125 EXT. OUTSIDE BUILDING – NIGHT/RAINY 125
MALCOLM and LAURIE watch as the JEEP stops in front of
them. The RAPTORS have already disappeared and the rain
is beginning to stop.
THORNE opens the door and drags LEVINE out.
THORNE
Come on, help me. Dr. Levine is hurt.
MALCOLM rushes over and pulls LEVINE over his shoulders
and carries him into the building.
THORNE comes out of the back with the cage.
CUT TO:
126 INT. MEDICAL ROOM – DIM 126
MALCOLM has LEVINE on a stretcher, taking torn clothing
and pressing it against his chest and stomach. The blood
won’t stop.
MALCOLM
Come on stay with me, Richard. Stay
with me.
Behind him, THORNE places the cage on a counter. LAURIE
walks up to the cage and unlocks the door. ARBY is
bruised up badly but will live. THORNE takes ARBY into
his arms.
THORNE
Your gonna be ok, Arb. Ok.
MALCOLM holds onto LEVINE’S hand.
LEVINE
(Coughing up blood)
I’m sorry, Ian. I’m so sorry.
MALCOLM
It’s ok…You’ll be fine…
LEVINE
No I won’t, Ian.
LEVINE smiles.
MALCOLM
Yes you will.
LEVINE squeezes his hand.
LEVINE
Ian…
MALCOLM puts his ear to his mouth.
LEVINE (cont’d)
(Whispering)
Ian, I’m sorry. I was an ass. None
of this would have happened if I
hadn’t have gone. I’m so sorry.
Forgive…
(Closes his eyes)
…forgive me.
A tear comes to MALCOLM’S face.
ARBY
(To Thorne but weak)
Did he save me?
THORNE
Yeah, he was a hero tonight.
ARBY
Thank you…
ARBY sleeps in his arms. LAURIE starts to cry.
