Ben immediately turns to run but Darius grabs onto his arm, "Wait..."

Just as the raptor is closing in on them, "Now!" The three of them split off, causing the dinosaur to slam right into the front door and tumble into the house.

"Run!" Y/N shouts, pulling Ben along with him, Dairus close behind.

They pile into Darius' car, the raptor angrily banging into the door.

"Go, go, go!" Ben shouts, gripping the shock prod.

Darius pauses, sifting through his pockets, "I left my keys in the cabin."

"Are you kidding me!?" Y/N groans.

"My van's just down that way!" Ben shouts, pointing down the path, "Put it in neutral, we can just roll there!"

Darius shifts gears, but as they start to roll the raptor leaps into Darius' truck bed and begins breaking the window behind them.

As they get closer and closer to the van, Darius places his hand on the handle to his door, the other two guys notice and take the hint.

"Three, two, one..." Y/N counts down, "Now!"

Darius slams on the breaks and the three of them tuck and roll out of the truck, making a run for the van. They rush inside and close the door right on the raptors face.

Ben wastes no time stuffing the key in ignition and speeding off.

Y/N leans his forehead on the dashboard, taking a few deep breaths.

"That was cl--" He begins.

"They're behind us." Darius practically chokes, looking in the rearview mirror.

"Hold on!" Ben veers around, taking a detour to try and lose the dinos.

They speed around a corner and one of the raptors leaps onto the back of the van, tilting it over the edge of the cliff and causing the dino to fly off.

Ben steps on the gas and gets them back on the road.

"Benjamin!" Y/N shouts, gripping the seats.

"I'm sorry!" Ben whines, "This wasn't on the driving test!"

"If they want food there's way easier ways to get it." Darius comments clearly not convinced that they're being hunted yet.

The second raptor runs up alongside the van, ramming into it and tilting it off the road. Ben panics and twists the wheel, causing them to fall down across a rocky mountain, tumbling all the way down.

They lose the raptor in their descent as it trips over its feet and by some miracle the end of the mountain leads to more paved road.

The three of them breath heavily as they safely roll down the street.

"Now we definitely lost th--"

"Don't even say that." Y/N groans, cutting Darius off.

After a long moment of silence, Ben clears his throat, glancing at Darius in the rearview expectantly.

"What?" Darius rolls his eyes.

"It-- It still doesn't prove we're being hunted."

"Are you joking?" Ben scoffs.

"I don't know-- It just seems like a really big leap." Darius shrugs unsurely

"Darius, Darius, Darius..." Ben shakes his head.

"Like," Darius goes on, "Those raptors could've been attracted to the light-- or..."

"Right." Y/N scoffs.
