JPV: Life Finds a Way Epilogue
By Mr Goodbytes
Epilogue: Hospital
“Ian! Come here quick,” Sarah Malcolm shouted from the living room couch.
“What is it,” Ian said, entering the room.
Sarah picked up the remote, and turned the volume up on the television.
“…Dr. Alan Grant, of Jurassic Park fame, was found by a fishing trawler off the coast of Costa Rica. The only survivor of the missing airplane that was on it’s way to the island of Isla Nublar for the filming of ‘Jurassic Park: The True Story.’ Found floating in a life raft, he is the only known survivor from the crash. No debris or bodies have been found. Dr. Grant is now in critical but stable condition at the Lady of Guadalupe Medical Center in Quepos…”
Malcolm sighed. I warned him, he thought to himself.
“I’m going down there. Something’s not right.”
38 Hours Later…
Grant was in very bad shape. Long cuts and abrasions covered his body. Malcolm felt strange sitting in a hospital room looking at his old acquaintance. Malcolm looked around, seeing cards from Alan’s friends and family. He picked up Ellie’s card, reading a heartfelt apology for not being there. Grant stirred, waking from his deep sleep. He looked over at Malcolm. Startled at first, Grant soon realized who the dark form on the chair was.
“I never thought I’d say this,” Grant said gruffly, “but I’m glad to see you.”
Malcolm nodded his head, a slight smile crossing his face.
“Do you think you could tell me what happened?”
“I think so,” Grant replied coughing.
For the next hour and a half, Grant relayed all that he could remember. Malcolm sat listening. He knew something had been stirring, but nothing this big. It was obvious now that Biosyn had a secret facility somewhere, and there was nothing he could do about it.
“Please,” Grant said as Malcolm stood to leave, “Tell them not to let anyone else in here. Once Dodgson finds out that I’m alive, he’ll try to kill me.”
“Sure thing Alan.”
“One more thing, be careful yourself. They may come after you next.”
Malcolm nodded his head and walked out the door. He told the staff at the hospital of threat against Grant, and left to get in his rental car. So much had changed in just a few days. Dinosaurs were cloned for the second time, and mankind faced an uncertain future. Ian Malcolm started the engine and began driving back to his hotel.
Only time will tell what is to come, he thought, Life finds a way.
THE END!
