Echo Incursion 01 - Jurassic Gateway (August 10th, 2016)

It's a particularly hot day in the Gateway City zoo. What else could you expect? It's not like it's not to be expected, it is the middle of August, after all. But there's plenty of things to see here at the zoo, and the visitors' center is air conditioned well enough.

Just a normal summer day in a typical summer vacation spot. Right?

Well, that's when things change. Those in the visitor's center would find the building changing around them. There's suddenly a dinosaur skeleton in the middle of the place, with the banner "When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth" hanging from the ceiling.

That's not all. The animal enclosures are now different. What used to be a pen for the african elephants now has very large, very long necked reptiles in it. A gigantic, meat-eating dinosaur just tromped its way out of the lion habitat it's too much too large for, and unfortunately for the people around it, its vision is based on movement. The monkey house? Well, those are velociraptors breaking out of it. The aviary? Now filled with particular aggressive flying pterosaurs.

These are just some of the creatures making their sudden emergence, and it's not long until they spill out of the zoo and into the city proper. Dinosaurs are now walking the streets of Gateway City.

Yes, indeed. Just a normal summer day.

Cure Twinkle lands lightly just a second before the blast of wind and cold comes out from the hole in the wall. She dances back a step or two to stay well out of its way and watches it strike the dinosaur's feet, freezing it in place. That's a pretty impressive move.

She looks back to Diamond when she speaks up, smiling in a way that might be considered entirely too nonchalant for the situation by some.

"Oh, it's not that. It's just--" She trails off as a low buzz starts. With a sidelong glance, she pulls her phone from a pocket(??) of her dress and subtly taps the Ignore Call button before putting it away again. "... I kind of had to take that call."

But before Diamond can dwell on that too much, she's moving right along, turning to look at the city with her hands on her hips.

"So, I guess we'd better do something about all of this, huh? What's the plan, fearless leader?"
