Well we were alright,but your mom and dad certainly weren't.
Your mom had once beena brilliant brain surgeon and dinosaur genetisist
who's discoveries had led to major advances in non-invasive
methods of dealing with brain tumours,missing and damaged frontal
lobes and using dinosaur skin for skin grafts.
You ,dad and your younger brother and old sister had certainly
benefitted and enloyed the good life from the royalties
your moms early patents had generated.
Alas she'd come down with a brain tumour herself,and after
the surgery the scientist was gone,but your
mother the violent raging woman who might commit
murder was what remained.
She'd handed the keys to her prime invention
the Genetic Accelerator Twister ( located in the caverns underneath
the mansion you lived in)
and tried to find a cure for her own serious issues.
She'd located the remains of a 20 foot long dinosaur
in the sands of the Scottish Hebrides.
A individual who'd died within the last
2,000 years.The papers and Google search called it a "dragon thief"
"dragon thief had a brain about the size of a large wolf,in other
words a rather smart dinosaur far intellectually superior
to the pea sized brains of t-rexes.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The 'dragon thief' dinosaur tooth your mother had sent you
was not up to 2,000 years old.It was more like a week old.
Your mother had also sent your dad one,and he'd been alarmed to discover his seriously violent wife was mucking about with dinosaur dna again.
He'd gone looking for the keys to the mothballed
Genetic Accelerator Twister where he'd left them in his safe.
They were gone.
Sensing the disaster that was about to occur
he'd descended the square access tunnel to the machines
control room,that glass walled box you later fell into.
The machines controls were smashed but the "dna viewscreen" was still
functioning and it was providing a up close and personal
look at his wifes dna sequence.
It was rapidly changing and your father could guess what your mothers dna was changing into,that
of the female "dragon thief" remains she'd found in the sands a year earlier.
Cursing his wife for doing this to herself he'd dashed to the other side of the glass control booth to remove the sample of dna from the
"source ion gun" .'dragon thief' dinosaur dna
Your mother had welded shut the hatch to the little test tube of
dinosaur dna your frantic father could see in the sample holder within the steel containment vessel.
Nor was the Fail Safe key anywhere to be seen,the key that would open a emergency trap door in your mothers old research office,now your bedroom.
The computer started impassively counting down
the time till the target ion gun blasted his missing wife with the rays that would change her dna into the dna in that welded shut chamber,the chamber with the testtube
of 'dragon thief' dinosaur dna.
So your dad openned the glass door to the control booth
and dashed down the tunnel to the circular room where he knew his demented wife had to be.
There she was.She'd strapped herselg into the chair and above her the ion guns flousesnt tubes were flashing as the accelerator throbbed loder and louder.
She seemed asleep or possibly had gone into a faint.
The computer was counting down the seconds.
Your father frantically undid the straps and bent over to haul his wife
out of the chair.
Suddenly two gribbed him and pulled the terrified man onto her
"lovers embrace"
<Ignition> spat out the computerized voice and your
screaming father could feel the ion gun burn away his humanity aand replace it with something
completely reptillian.
Finally the ion gun shut down and your wild eyed father had
to fight to hold onto your raging mother.
Well at least you were safe in your bedroom.
He fought his wildcat of a wife and dragged her along to ...
he knew not what
Both of them could feel their hairs falling out and litter the floor as the sane but changing man fought to subdue the insane and changing woman
Suddenly she slashed him across the face with fingers that were
slowly starting to lengthen and darken.
He hit the floor and passed out
When he awakened minutes later sie could feel the heat in hir belly
and the blood in hir mouth from hir slowly sharpening
dinosaur teeth.
Your "dad" pushed hirself up on fingers that already were graced with black talons
and sie hobbled along,the changes sinking into hir
pelvis now,and went looking for hir 'wife'
Sie found the other changing being by the secondary Fail Safe station.
The rage in your mother was making her tf progress faster then that of the dehumanizing creature that was your father.
So when you plunged through the trapdoor,mother 's jaws were already starting to lengthen and she
was looking at you not with concern or fear,but
through a predator's eyes.
