JPV: Life Finds a Way: Chap. 6 part 2
By Mr Goodbytes
Chapter 6 part 2: Robert Dalva
I’m a dead man, Robert Dalva thought to himself, knowing Dodgson‘s brutal reputation. He stood watching the grizzly chaos around him. At least eighteen people were dead, it was difficult for him to know the exact number. A lot of the bodies were in pieces, either from being stepped on or ripped apart by the dinosaurs. On top of that, Grant and the others had escaped. Looking east, Dalva saw the Baryonyx and Deinonychus, still locked in mortal combat.
“What the hell is going on,” Lewis Dodgson screamed angrily, “Where are the prisoners?”
“They stole your helicopter,” Dalva said, cowering, “The dinosaurs got in the way, there was no way to stop them.”
“We have weapons! Why didn’t you blow them out of the air?”
“We tried sir…”
“Yes, but you failed! Now I have to put up with law suits and P.R. nightmares, and you know how much I hate that! Not to mention”
The look on Dodgson’s face said it all, he was in a murderous rage.
“You had better get those animals separated, and under control!”
Dodgson glared at Dalva, as if in warning, then returned to the shelter of the structure behind him.
The Baryonyx roared, swiping it’s massive claws at the Deinonychus. The smaller animal was extremely fast, and dodged all of the attacks that the Baryonyx could unleash. She snapped her jaws at the little dinosaur, but it jumped away, making another bloody streak on her face. Suddenly, a large hole appeared in the Deinonycus’ side. Seeing that the Deinonycus had been injured, the Baryonyx made her move. She leapt forward, slamming her large talon down on the creature. Dalva watched from a distance as the Baryonyx ripped the other animal in half. Now was their chance to stop the beast.
“Open fire!”
“I said open fire,” Dalva shouted at the men. Hesitating, the reluctant Biosyn guards ceased their search for safety, and aimed their guns at the mammoth carnivore before them. An enraged roar echoed throughout the island. The female Baryonyx charged as the gunfire erupted. Large chunks of her flesh exploded from her body, but the bullets failed to bring her down. They needed more firepower, and for her to hold still. However, they were much too late. She plowed into the line at full speed. More and more, the stinging hot projectiles weakened her. Blood began flowing from the wounds as the bullets pierced her tough hide.
“That’s it, you’ve got her now,” Dalva said excitedly.
Surly, He thought, Lew would be happy that things were getting a little bit back to normal. Just as he finished his thought, the dinosaur gurgled and tumbled to the ground. Her head landed just a few inches away from Dalva. She was nearly dead.
“Excellent! Finish her off,” He said.
A low rumbling growl started deep in her throat. Spasms soon followed, starting at the tip of her tail and traveling up to her head. Dalva jumped back as the jaws snapped uncontrollably. Her breathing slowed, and the spastic motions stopped. Dalva inched forward slowly. He poked her head with a metal probe. There was no response.
“Kill her and burn the body,” Dalva said.
The guards aimed their rifles, fingers on the trigger. Robert Dalva began to walk away, but the great beast lunged forward. She clamped her jaws around Dalva’s skull in a final act of her own will. Her crocodile jaws claimed their last victim as she drew her final breath.
