“ Jihyo! hurry! We found it! “ A clumsy girl runs into the tent, her outfit is dirtied with dust and dirt

“ What is it Sana? Did they find it yet? “ A woman is still on her seat, her desk is filled with notes and excavation tools

“ Yes!! Come on hurry! Jason and Trini are waiting for us over there! “ Sana quickly runs out of the tent, with Jihyo is following

The two women are running as quick as possible to the excavation site, where a group of archaeologists is standing around a sandy pit, inside there’s a large remain of a dinosaur as parts of its skeletal structures are emerging out through the thickness o sand and rock layers.

“ Hey Jihyo, come take a look, it’s all here!“ A man with muscular build are climbing out of the pit and heads towards Jihyo and Sana.

“ Yes!! I knew the coordination was right! See I told ya! You owe me a beer big time Jason! “ Jihyo is hitting Jason’s biceps as a tease

“ Yes !! I knew the coordination was right ! See I told ya ! You owe me a beer big time Jason ! “ Jihyo is hitting Jason’s biceps as a tease

“ yeh yeh I lost the best I get it haha, come on, Trini is still over there, I think she’s identifying it ! “ Jason then guides Sana & Jihyo towards the digging pit

“ Heyyyyy Trini how it’s going ! What do we have here ? “ Jihyo enters the sandy pit, her hands are touching the dinosaur’s bones

“ Yo Jihyo ! Look, this one seems to be …. None other than Tyrannosaurus Rex, this big boy right here seems to be covered during a flood, poor guy, his entire skeleton is deep within these layers of thick grounds so we .. might have to take a few more days to fully recover him out, you think we can tell Dr. Grant about it ? “ Trini is still using her digging tools to removing some of the dirt surrounding the skeleton.

“ You know Dr.Grant, he’ll be here as soon as possible and he’ll dive right in, but yeh I can tell him, hopefully it won’t too much of a hassle, but Dr. Sattler is gonna pass by tomorrow too right ? “ Jihyo is asking while still touching the bones

“ Exactly, hey Billy, you think we can scan how further this guy is within these rocks ? We might have to count the time to fully getting him out though “ Trini is asking her friend Billy the technician

“ Oh yeh, so …. With our time and schedules, probably we might have to take around 2 days, not counting that some of these layers could be thicker than we think but I count 2 days, I’ll call for more tools and helps “ Billy is making his calls

“ Guess it’s another great find ! SO am I standing near its head ? Seems like it right ? “ Jihyo is still fascinating with the bones

“ I think that’s part of its jaw, that was the first part to be seen “ Jason is climbing down as well

“ And we also have its vertebrae right here, gonna be deep longer down there “ Trini is pointing around the sandy pit

“ Cool, ok, I’ll help you out, come on Sana we have no time to waste ! “ Jihyo is wearing her gloves and start digging

“ On it ! “ Sana joins as well

The diggings continue until pass evening time, as the archaeologists are taking their dinners at the camp site

“ Soooooo how did you know this location Ji ? “ Jason is asking while crunching on his food

“ I found the migration route, that’s it ! But I find it kinda strange also “ Jihyo replies while taking her food

“ Strange ? What’s so strange about it, we’ve been doing this for a while no ? “ Sana is asking

“ Because normally you don’t find a dinosaur bone in this area, it’s really odd this one is here, you … remember the other 4 we found ? they were in odd places too “ Jihyo replies back while showing on her tablet and notes

“ Yeh what did we have again, a mammoth, a saber-toothed tiger, pterodactyl and triceratops, so those 4 were in places they … scientifically shouldn’t be, and for some weird reason they were also being covered in the same manner as this Rexy dude “ Trini answers

“ Fully agree with Jihyo on that though, I read so many books about it and a bookworm like me still find them in exceptionally odd places, and odd timings too “ Billy joins in

“ Isn’t that the charm ? We find our dinosaurs in different circumstances, new ones keep poping up everyday, it’s cool ! “ Jihyo winks while finishing her food

“ Always sooo positive Ji, man, I wish Zack and Kimberly are here too, I guess Dr.Grant really needs some hands back at his site as well “ Jason adds in

“ Oh yeh, aren’t they helping a new guy as well ? What’s his name .. Tommy ? “ Jihyo asks

“ Yeh that dude, Kimberly is swooned by his charm haha, the guy sure knows how to impress her “ Trini jokes

“ That’s funny, anw, I finished my food, gonna head back to my corner and write down some notes, guess I’ll see you guys tomorrow ? “ Jihyo stands up

“ See ya Ji, have fun with those boring notes lol “ Jason teases

“ Thank youuu Jasonnnnn !!” Jihyo teases back and walk back to her tent

The night is coming, as the rest of the crew is sleeping, only Jihyo is still up with her desk

“ Ok, only a few more notes and I can hit the bed”

Suddenly, she hears something

In the middle of the quiet night, she hears, a voice

“ Jihyo..Park Jihyo”

“ Huh ? What’s that ? “ Jihyo looks around, but nothing there

“ Come to the digging site, quickly, there isn’t much time”

The voice continues, it seems to come from outside

“ What the … who’s there ??? “ Jihyo steps outside, holding her flashlights

“ Hurry Jihyo, it’s waiting for you over there “

The voice is still going, but… it seems like only Jihyo can hear it

“ No one seems to hear, what’s going on ?” Jihyo keeps on walking, following the sound, as it seems to come from the digging site

“ Come closer to the site, please hurry “

Jihyo runs fast towards the site, she sees a strange phenomenon
