SLAUGHTER

Adam stopped off at a tourist restaurant on his way back. His stomach had been growling, and he suddenly realized there was nothing he wanted more than hot, fleshy French fries, half buried under small mountains of salt and then smothered in ketchup. He ate slowly at a table while discreetly charging his dad’s phone from a socket in the wall, and kept a watchful eye for passing friends and burgundy Daimlers. In the end he barely tasted a thing.

He was wondering now if he should have told Hayden about Z. rex being here. Maybe I should have invited him to the warehouse to meet Zed for himself. What’s that old saying? “Seeing is believing.”

Or—more likely in this case—“Seeing is running away screaming calling the army to come and blow up the giant dinosaur.”

“You did the right thing,” he told himself. “For now, at least.”

He bought a couple of energy drinks and left the café through the little window in the men’s room. Just in case he was being watched.
