A/n: DISCLAIMER: I decided to make this into more of a rewritten than just a fanfic. Also "episodes" won't be the exact words due to having a different character, but most/similar events will occur. Some new ones might happen and some might be left out. Got to read to find out.

One and a half years ago...

12 almost 13 year-old Ren Hounder was talking a nature walk alone in an ebony forest. She didn't have many friends due to her parents traveling all the time. She knew she'd never see any of them again. She was rather lonely. She didn't have any siblings. Well, that's not exactly true. Ren remembered having a brother, but he was left when she was a younger age due to her parents feeling like they could not care for another child. She couldn't even remember his name. This contributed to her loneness. Her parents were a traveling business team, so they travelled all the time. Ren had long, wavy blonde hair that fell to her lower back tied back in a ponytail. Her eyes were a brilliant and radiant royal blue. Her casual outfit was a lavender colored hoodie over a pink shirt and long, black, baggy sweat pants. Ren wore a pair of pink, ankle-high boots on her feet. She had a standard pink wrist watch on her left wrist. She loved walking out in nature. It got her away from other arrogant students that tried to talk to her. She was walking when suddenly, she toppled over on a hole in the ground. Normally, the teenager wouldn't have thought anything of the seemingly normal hole in the earth. One glance back was all she needed to change her life forever.

There was something barely visible inside of the hole. Being a curious girl, she crawled over to the hole and peeked inside. It was a strange stone with a mountain shape on it and a card with a picture of a dinosaur. "What the..." Ren grabbed the stone and the card and studied it. "It's a stegosaurus" Ren observed. Then, she looked to the stone in her other hand. "And what's this?" Ren looked at the card and laughed. "Is this some sort of child game? You like swipe this card over the stone and you get points or something... right?" Ren said to herself as she ran the card over the stone. Unexpectedly, the card turned into a real life, full sized stegosaurus. Ren fell backwards from both shock and fright. "It's...! It's..! It's a real dinosaur!" In a frantic panic, Ren looked over the stone and noticed a dial looking thing on it. She turned it and the stegosaurus turned into a baby one.

Ren looked at the white and grey dinosaur in amazement. She knelt down next to the small dinosaur which looked up at her. "You're kind of cute." Ren smiled at the little stegosaurus. Ren looked at her watch. It was past 6:00. She was supposed to be at the apartment her family was staying at over half an hour ago. "Well, I got to go, little one." Ren told the stegosaurus. Without fully realizing, she put the stone in her pocket and began walking away. She turned around after about ten steps and realized that the stegosaurus was following her. "You want to come with me, don't you?" Ren smiled. The stegosaurus made a little dino noise in response to Ren's question. Ren smiled. "Very well, come on."

Ren got home quickly with the stegosaurus bounding at her heels. She made up a story during the walk home. The dinosaur was a stray dog and needs a home. Sounds convincing enough. After a long, thorough talk with her parents, they agreed to let Ren keep the "dog."
"So, what are you going to call her?" Ren's mother asked. Ren was too caught up in the fact that there was a real dinosaur sitting in front of her. Wait, name? Did her mom just ask for a name? Ren tried to think. The whole night's been a blur. The hole, finding the stone and card, summoning her, all down a walk in an ebony forest. Wait... Ebony! "Ebony!" Ren blurted suddenly. There was a nod of approval from both of the parents. "Ebony's a fine name, Ren." Ren's father told the teen. Since then, Ren and Ebony went everywhere together. Little did they know, their dinosaur journey was only beginning.
