I really, really like that idea. It would definitely put an unexpected twist on the storybook and give them something more to focus on than just surviving the dinosaurs. Something 'bigger than themselves' in a way.

I'm cool with posting this weekend, then! Yeah, @LordZeus, I think we all like your idea. I wanted to have some military conflict from the beginning anyway and I always figured Polk's reason for digging up the DNA/embryo capsule was for some army dudes.
When you said they'd hide the DNA, who'd you mean by "they?" I like the idea with the baby dinos so I definitely want a reason for Polk's capsule to be destroyed.

Posted! Let me know if what I wrote so far is along the proper lines for your idea, @LordZeus.
The romance bit was only there as a fulfillment for the Valentine's Day Captain's Challenge. Totally not also because I believe in Axabelle.

We're so close to finishing this SB! @LordZeus, where art thou? @Steggy, up to posting somewhere in the future?

I'll try working on a post! Though, could you give me a rundown on what has happened/where to start my post?

The characters have found refuge in the employee's section of a gift shop that's located on the main Jurassic World street as they wait for help to arrive (for surely it will eventually). Unbeknownst to them, until the end of my last post, there are certainly other humans on the island, but not the friendly type.
A smattering of U.S. military dudes are searching for the "Project Nightfall" capsule that Polk had dug up earlier. This capsule contains the DNA of dinosaurs that they plan to use for their own purposes, militarily. Our characters don't exactly know this yet, but Polk had been working with them and planned to deliver the capsule to them himself, perhaps for a large sum of money or for blackmail. When the military dudes realized that something was wrong, they came to the island themselves, to get the capsule.
They could be a bit more nice about it, but no. As shown in my post, they're being brutal to Carson (who you have my permission to kill, unless @TheForgottenKing magically reappears) to try to get information out of him, even though he knows nothing. They're going to try to detain all of the characters to keep them from escaping and spilling the beans to the government that the military guys are there.
Chris has the capsule. Ideally, our characters can purposely destroy it before it gets into the enemy's hands, or it can get accidentally destroyed, like if it pops open and a dinosaur crushes it. Once it is destroyed, the military guys will try to capture baby dinosaurs instead to take home and train. It would add an extra layer of suspense if our characters turn around and help the dinos, by setting their young free.
So, yeah! If you have any questions, please ask.

It seems that our poor characters will never get to leave the island. ;-;
Rest in peace, Jurassic Paradise! <3

I'm sorry it's been so long since I've posted. I've been pretty busy but I've been thinking about trying to write a post soon. It's sad that this has been so inactive. :/ I feel like I'm a little more limited with Chris's character in this SB given that he's just a kid and is sort of along for the ride, but I will definitely try to come up with something for him!

It's not your fault, Lefty! You, Fox, and I are really the only participants left in this SB and your post is only the third back. But if you come up with a post soon just let me know and I'll de-archive this! I would love to see this concluded.
You're welcome to take up the POV of any of the inactive but still alive characters, if you wish, like Carson, Ax, or Jorge.

Hey @Wolfical sorry for bring offline for so long. I had vacation in a non-wifi connected area and then I've been busy with applications for 11th and 12th (that's separate here). Am back now, and I have a lot to catch up on on all my SBs, but I promise that I will spare time for this. I'm not sure when I'll have a post ready but I will PM you when I do.
