The scene changes to the Alpha Gang's lair on a remote island out in the middle of the ocean. Ursula, an middle-aged women with green hair, light brown eyes, and a unique one-of-a-kind Alpha Gang uniform that consisted up a pinkish maroon jumpsuit and a maroon, pointed cloaked was playing chess against a taller, slimmer guy. This was Zander. Zander had black hair and black glasses over his eyes. He wore a black trench coat-looking suit over a red shirt with knee high, pointed green boots. Suddenly, Ursula knocks the board over except for her one queen piece winning the game. "That's not fair..." Zander sighed. An old man ran into the room waving a device in the air. "A DINOSAUR!" The man screeched. This old man was Dr. Z. Dr. Z was a short old man with a tuft of white hair and a pointed white beard, complete with a lab coat. Ed, another Alpha Gang member who was more rounded, wore a blue T-shirt with the Alpha Gang's red logo on it, brown shorts and spiky blue hair looked at the doctor. Ursula and Zander looked to the old man as well. Next thing they knew, they were heading to the Amazon in a boat hanging from a blimp with oars for direction and power.
Meanwhile, back at the D-lab, Max was introducing Ren and Ebony to his father. Dr. Taylor was a paleontologist. Ren was glad to see that Dr. Taylor was interested...… in Ebony. "So you have a dinosaur too? A stegosaurus by the looks of her." Dr. Taylor said observing Ebony playing with Chomp, Ace and Paris. Ren wasn't listening. She was watching Zoe's older sister, Reese, build a dino-holder like the ones Max, Rex and Zoe had. "And this is supposed to make summoning Ebony easier?" Ren asked Reese. Ren had gotten used to just using the stone. This high-tech device just might be more of a downgrade than an upgrade. "Yup, it's supposed to." Reese responded. As soon as the new dino-holder was finished, it started blinking and making noise. "What's it doing?" Ren asked.
"There's a new dinosaur!" Zoe announced.
"The signal's coming from the jungles of the Amazon." Reese said looking at a giant map.
"The Amazon, the world's largest rainforest. Home to lots of exotic plants and animals." Dr. Taylor said lost in a daydream. "Oh boy, what I wouldn't give to come along!"
"You say that every time, Dad, but you can't" Max put bluntly. Ren followed the three other kids onto a platform. "Leave everything to us, Dr. Taylor!" Rex said proudly.
"Alright then. Take this for insect bites." Dr. Taylor said putting a container in Max's arms. "Use this in case of stomach ache. Use this one for snake bites." Max could barely hold the three containers, but Dr. Taylor kept loading him up. "Use this to keep piranhas away. And this in case of bad breath."
"Thanks, Dad... " Max sighed.
"We better get going, Max, or the Alpha Gang's going to get there before us!" Zoe told him.
"Yeah, Good point." Max replied. Ren was mega confused by this point. She looked down at ebony who was just as confused. "Who's the Alpha Gang?" She asked.
"Bad guys who are trying to take all the dinosaurs for themselves." Rex explained.
"Well, got to go, Dad." Max told his father.
"Okay, you kids be careful, now!" Dr. Taylor called. Suddenly, the platform surrounded the four kids and dinosaurs in light. Ren and Ebony looked around in awe. They felt themselves started to fade out. Ren felt queasy for a moment, but it stopped when she felt herself stabilize again. They were in a dense forest covered in thick fog. "Which way to the dinosaur?" Max asked the group.
"The transporter only puts us in the general area, but doesn't tell us which way." Rex scratched the back of his head.
"But you're telling me that we're actually in the Amazon?" Ren said fully amazed. Zoe nodded before looking down at Paris. "Hear anything?" Zoe asked the small dinosaur. Paris responded with a dino noise that sounded like a no. "Remember this can be a dangerous environment." Max said beginning to walk off. "So be careful everyone one!" Max began screaming as he slipped and fell down a slope into a water puddle. "You ok?" Ren asked from above. Max sat himself up covered in mud. "Yeah... See what I mean?" Max said as he began to rub mud off of himself. Zoe led the way sliding down the slope followed by Paris, Ren, Ebony, Rex and Ace. "Need some help?" Zoe asked Max. Rex shrugged. "This could've been worse." he started, "Could've landed in quicksand." Zoe and Ren helped Max up. Max dusted what he could off. "That cliff should have a warning sign off it." Max grumbled. Max looked at his friends. "Hey, where's Chomp?" Max asked. The others all started looking around too. Ren thought for a moment. "He was with us when we transported..." she thought aloud.
"CHOMP!" Max yelled into the jungle.
(Quick side note, not including this note I'm at 860 words AKA 2.6 pages and only 5 minutes into the episode... This is going to be my most time consuming story yet...)
"Are you out there?" Max continued to shout. "Can you hear me?" The D-Team starts looked around bushes, tree, rocks but with no luck. "We're never going to find him in this place." Max sighed.
"What if we split up?' Ren suggested.
"Great idea, I'll go with Zoe." Rex said. Ren looked to Max. "I guess that leaves me with you." She told Max. The two groups split up to search for Chomp. Ren walked behind Max with her arms in her hoodie pockets and Ebony right by her side. "This place is huge." Max sighed. "How are we ever going to find Chomp in the Amazon?"
"You're fancy dino holder thing doesn't track him or something like that?" Ren asked.
"That's it!" Max pulled out his dino holder. "The dino holder can track Chomp." Max began messing with some buttons. With a big sigh, Max gave up. "It's dead, it must've gotten wet."
"I have one, but I don't think I have a signal." Ren looked at it. She tapped it on her hand. "Come on, give me something. "Maybe it just needs hit harder..." Ren whacked her dino holder against a tree and it shattered. She nervously laughed. She put the broken device in her pocket. "Let's keep searching." Ren suggested.
Meanwhile, Zoe and Rex where looking in another part of the jungle. "Any luck?" The blonde haired male asked the girl. Zoe sighed. "No, what about you?" She responded.
"Nothing here." Rex told Zoe. "If the pace keeps up like this, we'll get lost or worse, Max and Ren will. This trip is a disaster."
"Lets make sure Paris and Ace don't get lost in this jungle too." Zoe suggested.
"Good idea, let's keep them in their cards." Rex agreed. Zoe nodded. With that, the two kids called back their dinosaurs. A blue light surrounded the Carnotaurus and a green light around the Parasaurolophus until the two dinosaurs were cards again. A sudden roar was heard. The two kids briefly looked around the area. "Let's go!" Rex stated before him and Zoe took off.
Switch to the Alpha Gang in their boat/blimp hybrid. "Stroke! Stroke! Stroke!" Ursula ordered. "Come on you two, at this rate that dinosaur will be extinct again before we know it! Come on, hull! Pull that arm! Let's go guys! I'm helping as much as I can!" Ursula said lounging in the back of the boat with a megaphone commanding orders. Ed's head was pounding from all the orders and sweat was dripping from his forehead. "Maybe you can help a little less." Ed complained. Suddenly Zander sat up with wide eyes. "Ah! One spiky back Saltasaurus right ahead!"
"My, my! That's a good one too! Lucky I found him!" Ursula said before a small pause. "Wait, why haven't we landed yet? Get this gas bag on the ground!"
Ed shot a smirk and a glance to Zander. "Sounds like she wants us to land this in a hurry." He remarked.
"We better give the admiral what she wants." Zander smiled back. Suddenly, Zander and Ed let go of their oars. Suddenly the boat began to fell. "Uh-oh!" Ursula gasped. The boat crashed not far from where Zoe and Rex ran into the Saltasaurus. "There it is! It's a Saltasaurus!" Rex exclaimed.
"You're right! I can tell because it's got those bony plates on its back." Zoe told him.
"Yeah lucky for us, it's another herbivore and not a meat eater."
"No kidding..." Zoe murmured. Rex pulled out his dino-holder. "Alright Ace, time for you to get to work!" He said.
"Uh, oh!" Zoe exclaimed.
"What?" Rex looked up to see the Saltasuarus right in front of them about to trample them. "Run for it!" Rex hollered and nudged Zoe off to the side. The two darted out of the way of the massive dinosaur. Suddenly, a blue light appeared and a Spinosaurus appeared. The two dinosaurs roared at each other.
"What was that?" Max asked Ren.
"I don't know, but the next question is, do we really want to find out?" Ren replied.
Rex and Zoe looked at each other. "Haven't we seen that Spinosaurus before?" Rex asked. Then, once Rex realized he hung his head. "I remember..." He said disappointedly. Ursula laughed. "I hope you didn't forget us! If you need me to jog your memory: Ursula, Zander and Ed. Hi" She said.
"Oh joy, the old lady." Zoe pouted. Zander and Ed quickly grabbed Ursula was the green haired lady went berserk. "I AM NOT AN OLD LADY! TAKE IT BACK!" She screamed.
"She said bold lady not old." Ed quickly said trying his best to hold back Ursula.
"Right bold. Strong, brave!" Zander said. Suddenly Ursula stopped struggling in the men's arms. "Oh..." She said. "Get in there, Spiny and tear them all to pieces!" Ursula told the Spinosaurus pointing towards the Saltasaurus. Spiny toward at the giant plant eater. The Saltasaurus roared in return. Suddenly, Spiny jumped lunging at the Saltasaurus's back. The plates on the Saltasaurus's back protected it back Spiny's sharp teeth. "Hit them again!" The Alpha Gang yelled together.
"I don't think we want to put Paris and Ace out there." Rex told Zoe.
"What a lousy time for Max and Ren to disappear..." Zoe sighed.
In another part of the jungle, Max and Ren were walked and Max was trying to get his dino-holder sorted out. "I can't find Chomp, I can't find the new dinosaur, I can't even find us in this jungle without my dino-holder! Why won't this dumb thing power up? Come on!" Max said, then sighed. "It's hopeless." Max said and he sat down on a log and Ren sat next to him.
"We could try calling for Chomp again." She then suggested. Max nodded with agreement. "CHOMP!" He yelled. Back at the battlefield, Spiny charged at the Saltasaurus again. The Saltasaurus used it's neck to knock Spiny to the ground. Then, the Saltasaurus charged at Spiny and pushed him a great distance. "Wow, incredible!" Rex remarked.
"It looks like Saltasaurus is gonna win!" Zoe cheered. Zander looked to Ursula. "Ursula, this is not going well, throw in the towel." He told her.
"That thing is kicking Spiny's butt!" Ed added on. Ursula puffed. "Thank you both for your confidence. I have another trick up my sleeve. Do you remember that special card Dr. Z gave us?" She asked the two.
"Oh yeah, the move card!" Zander said.
"But... you don't have sleeves." Ed pointed out.
"It's just an expression!" Ursula hissed at Ed. "Now quit wasting time! Now swipe the card." Ursula threw the card to Zander. Zander grabbed the card and swiped it into his alpha scanner. "Now Spinosaurus! Tail Smash!" Zander said. Spiny turned and put all power into his tail and smacked the Saltasaurus with it. "Ah! Stay strong!" Zoe called out to the Saltasaurus. Spiny knocked the Saltasaurus over. "Come on! Get up!" Rex called out.
"This battle's over! Come on Spiny, hit them with one more shot!" Ursula cheered. Just as Spiny was about to deliver the final blow with a big chomp, Saltasaurus smacked Spiny's jaw with its tail. "I can't take the pressure anymore! Get in there, Spiny, and finish 'em off!" Ursula screeched.
"Ursula..." Zander started. Ursula looked to Zander holding the Alpha scanner with blinking lights. "This thing says his energy is low. Maybe he skipped breakfast?" Zander told the lady.
"The most important meal." Ed mumbled.
"What are you talking about?" Ursula demanded just as Spiny collapsed and turned back into his card. Rex nudged Zoe. "Hey look, Spiny turned back into a card!"
"And the other guy's leaving!" Zoe pointed out. The Saltasaurus was indeed fleeing from the scene. "Oh no! Let's go after it!" Rex exclaimed. Zoe looked to him and nodded. "Right!" She said. The two kids took after the dinosaur. ZAnder picked up Spiny's card from the ground. "What went wrong, Zander?" Ursula asked the slender man.
"Well, why don't we ask Spiny himself." Zander summoned Spiny again, but this time in his chibi form. Almost immediately, Spiny tried to bite off Ed's leg. "OW! That's my leg! Stop it!" Ed howled.
"See, he just needed a little breakfast, that's all." Zander sighed.
"Well from now on, keep that thing well fed!" Ursula hissed. Immediately Zander and Ed stood up and Spiny stopped trying to eat Ed's leg. "Yes, of course, Ursula!" Ed and Zander said together. Ursula looked off towards the direction Rex and Zoe ran off to. "Those little brats haven't seen the last of me!" She said.
"Chomp!" Ren yelled out into the jungle.
"Where are you? Answer me, Chomp!" Max called. Ren sighed and looked to Max. "We've been looking for hours." She told him.
"Wonder if he's out there looking for us too. What if I never see him again?" Max sighed. Suddenly, Ren slapped him across the face. "Don't say that! We'll find him!" She hissed at Max. Ebony made a determined dinosaur noise in agreement. A rumbling on the ground made the two kids and Ebony freeze. "What's that?" Max asked.
"It's a Saltasaurus!" Ren exclaimed. The two scrambling to turn and run away from the large dinosaur with Ebony on their heels. "Why are you chasing us? You eat plants and we're kids! We wouldn't be very tasty!" Max yelled.
"Where do you think it's going?" Rex and Zoe as they trailed the Saltasaurus.
"I don't know, but it looks like this chasing something." Zoe responding.
"HELP!" Max and Ren yelled together. Rex and Zoe froze for a moment. Then, they seen their friends running from the Saltasaurus on the other side of a river. "Max! Ren! Ebony!" Rex called out to them. Max turned around and waved at them. "Hi!"
"We need to get across the stream somehow." Rex thought aloud.
"That's not our only problem!" Zoe pointed to an oncoming boat. The Alpha Gang was rowing quickly to try to battle the stream current. "Row! And row!" Ursula commanded. "Renting this row boat was a really good idea, glad I thought of it." She smiled proudly. "Hey look, it's those kids again." Ursula said as they neared Rex and Zoe. Suddenly they both jumped from the shore into the boat. "Grab the oars, Zoe!" Rex told the pink haired girl.
"Are you crazy you could've jumped into the lake!" Ursula snapped out the kids. The kids grabbed the oars and shifted the boat over to the other side. "Technically, this would be considered a stream." Zander corrected. Once on the other side, Rex and Zoe got out of the boat. "Ok, there's your boat back, thanks for the ride." Zoe smiled.
"Why me, I try to be good, but they always set me up for a fall." Ursula sighed.
"A fall! A fall! A fall" Ed shouted.
"Yes, I just said that." Ursula murmured. She sat up realized Ed was talking about a waterfall. "Uh-oh!"
"A waterfall!" Ed screeched right before the boat tipped over the edge. The Alpha Gang flapped the oars for wings, but it was no use and the boat plummeted. The Alpha Gang screamed in unison. Max and Ren skidding to a halt at the edge of a cliff overhanging a lake below taking deep breaths. "There's no place left to go..." Ren sighed out of breath. The two kids turned around to face the nearing Saltasaurus. A lizard slithered at max's feet. The Saltasaurus neared closer. "Oh no!" Rex and Zoe said in unison taking in the situation. Max mustered every once of energy his had to let out a bellowing screech. "HEY CHOMP!"
"We got to help them, Zoe!" Rex told the girl.
"Should we call out our dinosaurs?" Zoe asked. Suddenly, Chomp lunged out of the bushes and charged to stand in front of Max. "Chomp!" Max cheered as he pulled out his dino-holder. "Alright, this better work!" Max power up his dino-holder which charged up fine. "Alright!" He cheered. Ren felt bad because she busted her dino-holder. a thought suddenly hit her. She pulled out her busted dino-holder and took the stone out of it. Ren looked at Ebony. "First fight, Ebony, let's go!" Ren said as she put Ebony into her card. Max put Chomp back in his card. "Ready to go, Chomp?" He asked. "Dino slash! Go Triceratops!" Max called as she slashed the card into the slot.
"Dino swipe!" Ren cheered swiping the card over the stone. "Rock and roll, Stegosaurus!" Full sized Comp and Ebony stood in front of the two kids. Chomp and Ebony charged at the Saltasaurus. The Saltasaurs turned so the two dinosaur hit the hard plates on its back. "It's going to be hard for Chomp and Ebony to get through those spikes..." Rex sighed. The Saltasaurus used it's tail to swipe away Chomp and Ebony. "Hang in there, Chomp!" Max called out.
"Get up, Ebony, you can do it!" Ren called.
"Watch out, it's coming!" Zoe yelled out towards the battlefield as the Saltasaurus charged towards Chomp and Ebony on the ground. Ebony being the slightly smaller dinosaur, got up and moved out of the way. The Saltasaurus reared up and stepped and Chomp until Chomp returned to a card. "Chomp!" Max called out and ran into to grab Chomp's card. Max was in disbelief. He couldn't believe Chomp lost. "Alright, Ebony, it's just you and me now!" Ren said. Ren had picked up a move card about a few weeks after she found the dinosaur card on a trip back to see if there was anything else. She pulled the card out of her pocket. "Spike Arrow!" Ren swiped the move card. Energy shined down Ebony's back in a purple light going to the end of her tail and into the spikes on her tail. The spike turned into projectiles that launched into the frontside of the Saltasaurus. Suddenly, the massive herbivore fell and turned into a card. "We... We did it, Ebony!" Ren ran over and picked out the Saltasaurus card. She walked up to Ebony and rubbed to dinosaur's forehead. "You're the best!" Ren smiled. Ebony suddenly fell in exhaustion and back into her card. Ren picked Ebony's card up and smiled. "Thank you."
Rex and Zoe ran over to join Max and Ren. "Ebony was great!" Zoe smiled.
"She really showed the brute!" Rex added on.
Max summoned Chomp in his chibi form and picked him up. "You fought so hard Chomp. I missed up. Let's never get separated again." Max nuzzled Chomp. Chomp playfully licked Max's nose. Ren looked at the Saltasaurus card. "It's a water element..."
"You can keep it too." Zoe smiled.
"You definitely get the credit for this one, Ren." Rex smiled. The lizard slithered by Chomp's feet. "A lizard!" Ren pointed out. "Wait isn't a Saltasaurus just a large lizard?"
"That's it!" Max said. "That Saltasaurus wasn't chasing us! It must've been chasing that lizard! It must've thought that lizard was family."
"Let's head home." Rex told the crew.
