《Carnivore Girl: Jurassic Park》Moving the Raptors
Advertisement
(Six years later) Jenny's POV
"I still say it's a bad idea to move the raptors" I tell my grandpa. I've been working at the park for three years. Rexy is nearly fully grown and always comes when I call her. She loves me, but if given the chance may ate everyone else. A new raptor we call 'the big one' just killed all but two of our current raptors. So they are being moved to a smaller enclosure.
"Relax Jenny, everything will be fine when the new raptors hatch" he assures me. "Besides the paper work is all done, they are being moved tonight" he states.
"It's a bad idea, I know these raptors. Someone is going to get hurt, especially moving them under a light sedative. They should be fully sedated and moved during the day" I tell him. No one knows the carnivores here better then I do. But no one accepts my opinion as I am a sixteen year old girl. When I have been around predators since I was ten years old.
"Look the other two have already been moved, it's just the big one now. By the way I have a surprise for you" he says changing the subject. "Lex and Tim are coming to visit the island in a few days. How would you like to be their tour guide?" he asks.
"That'd be awesome, I can introduce them to Rexy and show them the unhatched eggs" I say thinking about what I can show them. "Where's that computer guy?" I ask him. "He is suppose to be doing this, not me" I grumble as I code our website. It won't be uploaded until after the park is opened, but I was not suppose to be coding it.
"Dennis is on the main land having a well earned rest" Grandpa states. "Besides you're doing a marvelous job. I see where Lex gets her computer knowledge from and Tim gets his dinosaur knowledge" he says smiling. I smile back, it's true I taught Lex and Tim everything they know.

"When are the new raptors due to hatch?" I ask.
"In a few days, according to Henry" he states and I nod my head.
"Miss Hammond, the triceratops are getting sick again" a park zoologist says.
"I'm coming, besides I can check on Rexy along the way" I say saving my work before turning off the computer. "Grandpa, don't you have a meeting with your investors?" I ask. He said not until tomorrow and I nod my head before leaving. The zoologist and I get into a jeep, before driving to the t-rex paddock. "Rexy!" I call using the megaphone and she appears a few minutes later.
"It never siezes to amaze me how she comes when you call" the zoologist states.
"Hey girl, you hungry?" I ask her and she tilts her head. "Luke give Rexy a goat over" I say into the walkie talkie. Luke confirms the order and a goat appears. Rexy eats it happily and I say goodbye to her. Before the zoologist and I go to the triceratops enclosure. "Poor girl" I say stroking her thrill.
"Same symptoms as always" an vet states. "I've given her a sedative, hopefully she'll be fine in a few days. We've upped her Lysine dose, so hopefully she'll be back to normal soon" he explains.
"Good, my cousins are coming in a few days. I do not want sick dinosaurs" I tell him. "Are any of the others sick?" I ask.
"No, just the triceratops" he assures me.
"Keep her isolated from the others until she is better" I tell him and he nods his head. I then return to the visitors centre and have dinner with Grandpa. They should be moving the big one soon, Robert Muldoon our raptor expert is over seeing it. Just as he had done with the other two raptors.

Just then a employee appears with a phone giving it to grandpa. "What?! Is everyone else alright?" he asks looking shocked. "And the raptor?" he asks. "Good, meeting in ten minutes. I want to know what happened and how" he tells the person before hanging up.
"What happen with the raptors?" I ask him.
"The big one killed a guard as they were putting her in the new enclosure. Robert tried to save the man while everyone else tazed her. But it was to late" he explains sadly.
"I told you someone would get hurt and did you listen? No" I snap before taking a deep calming breath. "Sorry grandpa, hows the raptor?" I ask in a calmer tone.
"She is fine and safely secured in her new enclosure with the other two" he assures me. "Please come to the meeting and try stay calm" he begs. I nod my head and we go to the meeting room. As promised I stayed calm during the meeting, but gave Robert a piece of my mind. He wanted to kill all three raptors, but grandpa agrees with me and says they won't be killed. Afterwards I go to bed early exhausted from the days events.

Cultivating Earth [Hiatus]
[This fiction is on indefinite hiatus. I'm currently acting as a 24-hour caregiver for my step-father who had a massive heart attack. I apologize for disappearing so quickly, but sometimes that's just life. I'll return as soon as possible. Sorry everyone!] Zhao Gang, after hundreds of thousands of years cultivating, has finally reached the penultimate threshold. He is ready to ascend to the level of True Immortal. Driven by the need for a place his enemies won't find him, Zhao Gang puts together an audacious plan. He has developed a revolutionary new formation which will allow him to ascend while on even the lowest planes. To avoid drawing attention, he has to choose a plane that is relatively desolate, however. He chooses Earth. Fast forward three thousand years. Zhao Gang discovers what his work has wrought - a cultivation-free culture that has delved the deep mysteries of creation - he can't help but think how this tiny little planet devoid of natural energy could affect the course of all creation. There's only one problem. For that to happen, he has to succeed in cultivating Earth. Notes: Chinese names should be ignored in the social context - they don't mean anything. Sorry for slaughtering such a beautiful tradition. This novel starts off slower than most. If the slow-roll isn't your thing, you might want to give this a pass. If it's not for you, I understand. Also, releases may be broken up into smaller chunks. The goal is 5k words, but definitely more than 4k. If you see a short release, be aware that more is probably coming. I'll be honest and say that I'm struggling with each new scene, if only because I want to balance the scope of vision with good pacing. I hope the work I put into it is worthwhile.

8 184I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)
