Number.PromptSentence

001.Fair PlayLife is survival of the fittest, and now Billy knows that better than ever before.

002.BonesHe was seven when he found a fragment of ankle bone while digging in his backyard; he's been hooked ever since.

003.DesireAt eight, Billy made sure his parents knew he wanted to be a paleontologist by taking chicken bones from the dinner table, burying them in the backyard, and digging them up a week later.

004.FlowerWith the Pteranodon having given up, and Billy having found shelter in a small cave, he idly muses on the fact that the flowers on Isla Sorna are the prettiest he's ever seen; then again, they'd probably try and kill him too.

005.Hat BoxFor Alan's next birthday, Billy gets him an obnoxious hat box, laughing as he says Alan might not lose his hat now.

006.JumpIt's a long way down, but Billy's leapt into more foreboding depths than this; besides, he's never been chased by a hungry Pteranodon before.

007.MotherHis mother was behind Billy's fascination one hundred percent; after all, she was the one who got him his first dinosaur model.

008.FatherHis father balked at the idea of Billy wanting to be a paleontologist, urging Billy to pursue a "real" career.

009.SalivaBilly normally wouldn't mind the chance to study actual Pteranodon saliva - he just has issues with the fact that he's covered in it.

010.Kaleidoscope"There's one question answered--" Billy says to Alan, smile on his face, "--they really did come in every color."

011.Primary ColorsBilly comes to for several disjointed seconds, his vision fuzzy but able to distinguish bits and pieces of his current state - red blood marking his wounds; murky, bluish-brown water lapping at his feet; and a disgusting yellow slop that he can't and doesn't want to name.

012.IdealIdeally, a Velociraptor would not be chasing him with an urge to tear his intestines out. Ideally.

013.ChallengeKnowing now what he has to deal with, Billy accepts the island as a challenge.

014.ScarThey say scars have the best stories; too bad Billy has to lie about his.

015.FaceHe turns from fixing his pack and suddenly he's face to face with Alan; the first thought that runs through his mind is "Oh, shit."

016.UnzippedBilly's jeans are unzipped and hanging around his knees, head thrown back as he jerks off while leaning against the trailer wall; with no privacy at the dig, he's amazed he has this chance at all.

017.ComfortBilly doesn't feel completely comfortable until the only dinosaur he meets is long-dead and still half-covered with badlands dirt.

018.HomelandFor the first time in his life, Billy's glad to see a city skyline breaking into the horizon.

019.WindowThrough his window imposing walls of green suddenly appear; then the plane soars above the cliffs and Billy's mouth drops as the long neck of an apatosaur rises into view.

020.TryAfter his first month at the dig, Billy decides that the Montana badlands are dry in more ways than one - he hasn't gotten laid since May.

021.Black CloudA dark, distant thunderhead rising above the island is almost like an omen, Billy thinks to himself.

025.BiteWhen he was fifteen, Billy liked to scare his little brother by telling him exactly what the teeth of a hungry Tyrannosaurus rex could do to a bratty eight-year-old.

026.PowerSeeing the Spinosaurus' jaws mere feet away, Billy is simultaneously blown away: on one hand, fucking no one gets to see a sight like this; on the other, it would take absolutely nothing for those teeth to rip him right in half.

027.FingersHe gets attacked by Pternadons and the only bones he breaks are in the fingers of one hand?

028.DamageNow that he and Alan and the Kirbys know why the raptors are chasing them, Billy prays to God that he didn't fuck up any of the eggs.

029.GlueHe glues the head onto his first Tyrannosaur model, and seven-year-old Billy beams, feeling like the king of the world.

030.Natural"I never expected to see them in the wild," Billy grins.

031.RespiteSure, the Spinosaurus is gone now, but Billy doubts it's gone for much longer.

032.DisasterMaybe flying to a forbidden, uncharted island with a couple he and Alan just met was, in fact, a bad idea.

033.AccuseAlan doesn't mention the crime, but he doesn't have to; Billy can see it in his eyes.

034.MorningHe's been lying in the cave for so long that Billy has no idea if it's morning yet.

035.HauntedSometimes dreams toss him back into the unforgiving jungles of Isla Sorna, but Billy doesn't tell anyone this.

044.LiarBilly's never lied to Alan - until now.

045.HourBilly's watch broke somewhere between the first Pteranodon and the last, so he tries to count the hours by the passing of the sun.

046.EasyIt's easy to think that the last sight he sees before he dies is the snapping beak of a Pteranadon, and that's a depressing thought.

047.TieBilly readjusts the tie in the mirror, musing on his first speech since his return from Isla Sorna.

048.SenseThe books stuffed on the shelves in his home are nothing compared to seeing, hearing, and feeling dinosaurs up close.
