Trooper Station - Morning

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Finally having caught up with sleep after the whole getting ship wrecked thing, Roy had headed down to the station. As soon as he heard the radio, he'd demanded to know why no one had informed him of the dinosaurs. Ralph had merely shrugged saying they were peaceful. Wanting to be safe anyway, Roy sent a patrol out anyway.

It was less than 20 minutes later when he got their call saying they had run into trouble in the preserve. It took less than three for him to get the other troopers awake and to call Dale over to the station asap.

((Station is open for attack or whatever.))

They were moving too fast, making it hard for Roy to get a shot that he knew would hit.

"Yes," he growled, not liking that there were too many sides he couldn't see here. He took a chance and fired at the injured raptor again, hoping to at least scare it away from their retreat.

The injured raptor now had a knife stuck in him as well and he stalked towards the knife throwing snack, ready to eat.

Another raptor was being Very Sneaky as it crept up behind the blue snack, not roaring now, but pouncing at the very last second.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Dale however did spot the raptor and called out, firing at it. Roy was probably slower, trying to twist away from the thing as he was flattened. At least it was easier to aim from this close and he fired at its chest.

The raptor roared in rage as the bullet ripped into it and sprinted forward to try to knock the stupid mammal aside.

Aly threw herself away from the raptor, not realising she was rolling into the path of the raptor charging Mustang.

Right into the path, as it happened, and the raptor's foot came down solidly on her as it tried to charge.

"Aly!" Roy tried to warn her, but it was too late and he lost his line of fire, the raptor solidly smashing into him and knocking the wind out of him as he was tossed back against the front desk.

Sounds of shots filled the air again as Dale fired at the raptors again.

None of them particularly liked this. And one especially did not like stepping on a squishy mammal. But it thought it had made up for it by pinning the nice meat snack to the desk and looking for a good place to take a bite.

Aly rolled back to her feet just in time to see the raptor pin Mustang. She quickly drew her big knife to try to stab the raptor at the base of the neck to distract him and was startled herself as a bullet fired by Dale flew just by her.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

While the raptor was distracted by the shots and Aly, it still was on top of him. Without thinking, he just hit out at the animal's eyes forgetting he was supposed to fire a gun, not use it as club.

Raptor had had enough of this. The meat snacks were supposed to be food, not painful annoyances. He leaped backwards, getting away from the pain in his eyes, and hopefully smushing the pain in his back against the wall.

Then he jumped over to rejoin his fellows, chirping slightly as if to form another plan of attack.

Aly coughed slightly as she stood back up from the definite smushing against the wall and eyed the quiet - for now - raptors.

She glanced over at Roy and Dale and raised an eyebrow towards Roy's office. At least there, the approaches would be easier to guard.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy nodded in agreement as he slowly started to get up. It seemed like a bad idea to run and give the creatures an idea. His gun at the ready, he slowly started to back towards his office, noticing Dale do the same thing.

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

The raptors seemed to smile as they watched their prey retreat. Chase was fun. Chase was always fun.

Aly held her knife carefully, resisting the urge to throw it at the raptors and ducked to pick up another knife that had skittered across the floor as she covered their retreat into the office.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Dale reached the office first and Roy waited for Aly to go in, but received a glare as thanks. He glared back, but there was no time for this as those raptors didn't look like they were going to wait.

He reached out, grabbing her by the arm and pulling her in with him.

Dale quickly fired another shot at the wounded Raptor as they congregated into Roy's office.

"Slippery little devils, aren't they?" he asked as he started to reload.

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

The velociraptors chirped to each other, still watching the snacks and easily avoiding the shot.

Finally one started to slide along the walls, heading for the office.

Aly watched the raptors carefully, wiping her knife off automatically on her shirt and then scowling at the dinosaur blood there.

"Fast, annoying things," she said, trying not to pay attention to the fact that one had stepped on her pretty well. "I liked the whole turning into stone better."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy was studying the raptors too, frowning at their behaviour.

"They seem to like coordinating," he remarked, cocking his gun and waiting a moment before firing at the closest raptor.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly nodded. "Worse luck for us. Least they don't smell bad. So far." She sheathed her big knife and readied two throwing knives, waiting until she had a good shot.

And then noticed something. "There's just one raptor out there now."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

His gaze flicked back to where the others had been mere moments ago.

"Damn. Keep an eye out," he warned, fingers ready on the trigger.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly couldn't help smirking. "Sure, you think?" she teased, turning to split her attention between the door and the windows.

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

The missing two raptors were nowhere to be found as the third streaked towards the door of the office.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy didn't answer Aly's tease as merely shot as many bullets at the charging raptor as he could, hearing Dale's gun firing beside him and praying that was enough.

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

The velociraptor tried to move out of the way of the bullets, but he couldn't manage to avoid all of them and crumpled to the ground, still chomping and growling.
