Sonic Series ❯ Trip to Universal Studios ❯ Jurassic World ( Chapter 7 )

[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Manic dragged Surge along to the Jurassic World section.

 “Aw, the super hero section may be cool.” Surge said.

 “You don’t like those characters.” Manic replied. 

 “How often do we get to come here?” Surge asked.

 “Exactly why I want to see the sections we came here for.” Manic replied.

 An employee, a male Mobian cat, looked at them. “Manic from Sonic Underground?”

 Manic grinned. “Yeah, nice to meet you.” He said. “Never had anyone recognize me. Let’s get you a picture.”

 Manic took a picture with the employee on the employee’s and Surge’s phone.

 “It’s cool to see you here.” The employee said. “Enjoy your day.”

 “You too, dude.” Manic replied.

 Manic and Surge finally made it to the line for the velociraptor encounter.

 Manic bounced on his feet as he waited.

 Surge shook her head. “You’re lucky you’re cute.” She muttered. “I’d be a little embarrassed for the both of us if it wasn’t for that.”

 “I’ve wanted to do this my whole life.” Manic said. “Give me a break. Oh, and I hope you’re hungry. We’re eating in this section.”

 A park employee, who was a female Mobian rabbit, stepped around to face the visitors in line. “Unfortunately, Blue will not be out today, but our baby velociraptor will be out for the velociraptor experience.”

 Manic sighed. “Aw, well, at least we’ll see the baby.”

 “You know it’s animatronic, right?” Surge asked. 

 “Well, duh.” Manic replied.

 Surge ruffled Manic’s spines. “Ah, I’m just messing with you.”

 After about ten minutes, Manic and Surge made it to the front of the line.

 Manic handed his phone over to another employee before taking his place near the velociraptor pen.

 The baby velociraptor, an animatronic puppet being held by the rabbit employee, snapped and squawked at Manic and Surge.

 “No, you can’t bite them.” The rabbit said, trying not to laugh.

 “Aw, you’re cute.” Manic said, grinning.

 The velociraptor squawked at Surge.

 “Okay, let’s get a picture.” The employee said. “Look at the camera.”

 Manic and Surge smiled at the camera.

 After they got their picture, Manic got his phone back.

 Manic and Surge walked to the exit.

 Manic grinned. “Awesome, they took a video.”

 “Let’s get in line for the river raft ride before we look in the shops.” Surge replied.

 Sonic and Sally walked through Jurassic World. 

 “Wow, it’s kinda what I would expect if I was in the movie and visited the park on a good day.” Sally said.

 “They beat us here.” Sonic said, motioning to Manic and Surge. “Look at him. I didn’t see him grinning like that when he got married.”

 Sally looked up from the map on her phone. “Well, he said this is his bucket list thing.”

 Manic spotted Sonic and dragged Surge over to Sonic and Sally. “Bro, we saw a baby velociraptor.” He said excitedly. “It was so sassy and cute. Then we went on the raft ride and I got to hold an egg at the visitor center. And-”

 Sonic held his hand up. “Don’t spoil it for me.”

 Manic finally took a breath. “Sorry.”

 Sonic noticed Manic and Surge’s new necklaces. “Did you get those here?”

 “Yeah, they’re velociraptor claws like in the movie.” Manic said, holding the claw. “It was only ten Mobiums each.”

 “Wow.” Sonic said. “So you want to ride the Velocicoaster with me?”

 Manic grinned. “Yeah, Surge doesn’t want to ride it either.” He replied. He handed Surge his necklace. “Hold it for me, Babe. We’ll eat when I’m done.”

 Sonic and Manic headed for the coaster.

 “Wanna check out the visitor center?” Surge asked.

 Sally and Surge looked at the dinosaur sculptures and the dinosaur skeletons by the staircase.

 “It does feel like you’re in the movie.” Surge said. “Manic practically dragged me through here.”

 Sally laughed. “I’m glad he’s enjoying himself.”

 Surge walked Sally over to the dinosaur egg exhibit.

 There was a small section with the eggs in compartments for the visitors to interact with in front of a glass window. Behind the window was the machine holding a bunch of eggs in a nest.

 “Pick one up.” Surge said, motioning to one of the eggs.

 Sally reached into the compartment and pulled out an egg. She shook the egg lightly. “Oh, there’s something in there.”

 Surge put an egg into a little shaft, then used a lever to slide the egg over to a scanner. “This one is a stegosaurus.”

 “Cool.” Sally said.

 “Now, let’s try the Dino dna thing and the fossil scanner.” Surge replied. “

 Surge and Sally stepped around and saw a wall of fossils. 

 Sally grabbed the scanner and tried to move it over the bones. “It’s a little heavy.”

 Surge moved the other scanner over a velociraptor skeleton. “Here it is.”

 Sally looked at the scanner and laughed. “It’s very nineties tech.”

 Sally and Surge walked over to the dna lab section.

 Sally looked at the glass window. “Ooh, they got the embryo containment thing.” 

 “Try the scanner while it’s free.” Surge said, walking Sally over to one of the computers. “Look down at the viewer. It’ll merge you with a Dino.” 

 Sally looked down at it until the computer told her to move. “Oh, it’s Mr. DNA.”

 “Answer these questions.” Surge replied.

 Sally answered the series of questions. “Pack hunter, large dinosaur, biped.”

 “Step over to the next one.” Surge said.

 Sally stepped over and placed her hand on the handprint on the console. She flinched as it blew a puff of air into her palm.

 Surge laughed. “You should’ve seen your face.”

 Sally rolled her eyes.

 Finally, the third monitor revealed a dinosaur with Sally’s face pasted on it.

 “Eww.” Sally muttered.

 “It didn’t do that with me and Manic.” Surge replied. “It said we broke a few laws of nature. Must be because we had selected ‘solo’ and ‘small’ dinosaurs.”

 Sally shrugged. “Maybe.”

 Surge looked up. “Oh, there’s the boys.” She said, waving at Manic. “I guess you two will eat at the burger place upstairs with us.”

 Manic tapped his fingers on the table as he ate the tropical cheese fries. “Man, this is so cool.” 

 Sonic angled himself to face Surge. “So does it bother you that he’s acting more excited about this than he did at your wedding?”

 Manic rolled his eyes. “C’mon, I was thrilled at my wedding.”

 Surge shrugged. “I take it as he processed his excitement differently.”

 “I was just messing with him.” Sonic said. “Where are you headed to next?”

 “The Dreamworks section.” Manic said. “Maybe the Dark universe.”

 “We thought about heading to Dr. Seuss land to see if we can get the Grinch to roast us.” Sonic said.

 “I want to drag Shadow there and see what the Grinch would say to him.” Manic replied.

 “Then security would be arresting Shadow.” Surge said.

 Sonic, Sally, and Manic laughed.
