Chapter 37 - The Dinosaur At The Window

"Hey Jon, can you believe this?" 

"What is it?" 

"I read the morning news, and it said that scientists have mastered cloning and have cloned their first animal. Doctor Jenkins said, 'I know many people would love for us to clone a mammoth or a T-rex, but it is not possible at the present moment. We cannot clone something that large, so we must think small and we did exactly that...we cloned the Allosaurus." 

Mikey laughed, Jon himself smiled amused. "That's not all, Jon. The article continues, and the predictable happened. The Allosaurus escaped its enclosure and is on a rampage. Guess where? At Owen Wilson's street where we live." Mikey laughed harder. "The scientists even said that maybe they should have started with the dodo bird. Can you believe how stupidly fake this article is? This is done by some amateurs... no, it's probably done by a 6-year-old." 

He looked over to Jon, who looked grim. "Hey, what's up Jon?" 

"Mikey... the news is far from fake; it is real." 

"W-what?" 

"Yeah, Mikey. Every word is true. In fact, once I woke up from bed this morning, I saw a dinosaur." 

"Y-you saw?" 

"Yeah... it watched you sleep." 

Mikey was mortified. "H-how did it look like?" 

Mikey stared unblinking, shaking in his chair. Jon approached him slowly. "You know that pigeon that comes to our window? Well, birds are dinosaurs." 

"You bastard!" 

Jon was hysterical. Mikey stood up, walking angrily, and froze at the window. 

The Allosaurus looked at him.
