A bunch of robots then rolled in, holding lazer guns.
Jennifer and her group dropped their walkie-talkies and put their hands behind their head. A
voice in the shadow barked,
‘Guard them!’ the robots instantly formed a circle around them.
‘That voice…’ the professor mumbled.
A young man wearing a lab coat came out from the shadows saying,
‘Well, well, well, what do we have here? Uncle and his students.’
‘Ethan?’ the professor stammered.
‘Of course…I have come to get your dinosaur eggs. They are in such good conditions that I
will use them to clone live dinosaurs! I will be a great scientist!’ Ethan said, rubbing his hands
together. ‘Now that you are trapped, I will kill all your crew and get the dinosaur eggs.’ He smiled
evilly. ‘Watch them!’ he barked to the robots, then he went outside.
‘Uncle?’ Jennifer asked the professor.
‘He is my nephew, but he betrayed his family. There is only one way to catch him…’
At this time, Blake suddenly burst through the doors with guns in both hands. He jumped into
the air and shot at the robots and immobilized them.
‘Come on! I have a jeep waiting!’ Blake ran outside and got in a four-wheeler.
When they all got in, Blake started the engine and raced towards camp.
Shane said urgently, ‘We need to get back to camp before Ethan and alert the crew!’
When they got there, they realized that Ethan had already arrived before them and was
getting the robots ready to attack. They quickly got off and hid behind bushes to spy on him.
‘We have to alert the crew! They’re in danger!’ Shane whispered.
Jennifer nodded and slipped inside the stable and whispered something to the crew. Shane saw
surprised to see Odval the robot was beside her. Jennifer pushed Odval to the crew and quietly
slipped out.
Shane asked, ‘What’s with Odval?’
‘I snatched her in the corner of Ethan’s robot shop when we were going out. I found a way
to control Odval and told the crew to use it to shoot Ethan’s robots and capture him afterwards.’
Jennifer replied, looking at the professor. ‘I’m guessing you have plans for him?’
‘Yes, yes’ the professor replied.
Just then, Ethan was charging towards the stable.
‘Ahhhh!!!!!!!!!’ Ethan rushed in with his army of robots.
The crew, unfazed, used Odval to shoot lazer beams at the robots and instantly damaged
many of them; some of the crewmembers even got hold of a robot and turned it against Ethan.
Soon, all the robots were either captured or damaged. The crew was surrounding Ethan, and he
was panicking, trying to run away but he was trapped. Jennifer, Shane, Professor Theodore and
Blake went inside,
‘Un…uncle?’ Ethan spluttered.
Professor Theodore smiled and led Ethan out of the tent and into another one. A bright light
flash then flared up from inside the tent and Ethan was heard screaming until his voice faded.
The professor came out without Ethan and, as if nothing had happened, said, ‘Well, let’s go dig
some bones, shall we?’ With that he got on his camel and looked at the crew. ‘What are you guys
waiting for?’ he asked.
Everyone was staring at him, wondering what he had done to Ethan. The crew got on their
