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.

It's a relief but she winces a little despite herself. As big and nasty as this thing is, it's just an animal. An animal she'll take down if she has to but she doesn't really care for the idea of mutilating it. So for now, she folds up the Scissor Blade, reattaching it to her belt loop.
Then she plants her feet against its teeth, a hand on the jaw above her and pushes with all her might to wrench the beast's jaw open.
Then she starts punching the roof of its mouth repeatedly.

There was really only one proper response to what this tiny monster was doing, and that was to spit her out. Which she did by regurgitating a mass of spit and various things she'd eaten and thereby force her out.
This would be very disgusting.
no subject
She paused mid-punch when she heard a suspicious gagging noise and slowly turned to look down the rex's throat, eyes slowly widening in horrified realization. Unfortunately, there was no way to react as the worst thing ever happened and Raye found herself being washed out of the dinosaur's mouth by a wave of puke-smelling foulness I can't even imagine.
She hits the ground in a gross splash and just... laid there for a beat or two. And then, forgetting all about the apparent fight for her life she was in, jerked and rolled out of the puddle and up to her knees. Gagging and cursing and screaming at the top of her lungs.
"FUCK FUCK FFFFFFFFUUUUUCK!!! JESUS CHRIST, IT'S--hrrk--IT GOT IN MY FUCKING MOUTH--hrrrg!! AAAAAAUUUUGHH!!"
no subject
After... calming down a tag, however, she turns, and levels her gaze back at Raye. She's thrashing about and screaming enough even she can spot her with her vision-based movement.
The look in the tyrannosaur's eyes is one of pure, absolute hatred. At least, as much of one as you can get from a dinosaur.

For a little while, the tension in the air could be cut with a knife. And then--
"C'mere, motherfucker!" And, then, with all the considerable force she could, she launched herself into the air. ... To tackle that T-Rex.
no subject
And with the tension suddenly breaking, the t-rex lets out a roar. As Raye tackles her, it ends up grabbing her with those tiny arms of her's, pulling her down as she's knocked over, and holding her against her chest. It turns out those tiny arms are actually pretty damn strong.
She rolls once when hitting the ground, before trying to pin her foe beneath her body.
no subject
"Hey! Legg-- oomph!" The dinosaur's bulk is a pretty considerable one to find herself smushed under when they hit the ground and punching isn't really an option any longer. So, she tries a new method of attack. One taken right out of her opponent's book as a matter of fact.
... She bites the stupid thing. As hard as she can.
no subject
You ever see a flightless bird attempting to get up off that ground? Because that's what the Rex is doing as it attempts to scramble back to its feet before Raye can.
no subject
She's not wasting any time appreciating the sight either. Not more than a few seconds after regaining her feet, is there an overturned hot dog cart flying for the t-rex's head. Followed by, even worse, a shouty little nutball human charging in for another tackle. Assuming she lands, her plan is simple: rain punches down on the damn thing until it stops being a bitch about all this.
