Now without futher ado, Let's commence the final chapter!
Disclaimer: I do not own Dinosaur King.
In the living room at Zeta Point, Dr. Ancient was finishing putting a couple of bandages on Ace's head after Seth slammed him to the ground. "There you go, you'll be better soon." Dr .Ancient tells the chibi dinosaur.
Once Dr. Ancient leaves, the other chibi dinosaurs head for Ace as they begin to ask him questions.
"Yap yap yap (Are you alright, Ace)?" Chomp asked.
The Carnotaurus replies, "Grrrrooowl (Better than I was a few moments ago)."
"Rooar (Does it hurt)?" Bud asks before getting berated by Terry, "Roooar (What kind of question is that)?! Rooar (That's the stupidest question I've heard)." Bud frowns as he begins to feel uncomfortable. "Roar (Terry)!" Paris exclaims. The Tyrannosaur apologizes, "Roooaaar (Sorry Bud, I didn't mean it). Rooar (I'm just worried about Ace)."
"Grrowl (I'll be fine, you guys)." Ace assured, "Grrroooowl (It's going to take more than a few hits to the head to slow me down)." Spiny then says, "Raaawr (You're still here with us, Ace)."
"Growl (Agreed)." Then, all of the chibi dinosaur surround Ace for a big group hug.
Dr. Ancient makes his way back to the others who're all seated either on the couch or on the floor. "Alright, I'm back." He said before taking a seat next to Dr .Cretatia, "I'm sure all of you are wanting some answers?" The D-Team and Alpha Gang nod heads. "Yeah, we do." Ursula said as she looks to her brother, "Nathan, I thought you said you and Emily didn't want to come with us on the expedition."
"Yeah." Zander and Ed agreed.
"We did." Nathan replies, "However, something forced us to go and head back in time."
"What was that, dad?" Rod asks.
Nathan answers, "Dr. Ancient and Dr. Cretatia's unexpected arrival back home." The D-Team was confused by the answer while the Alpha Gang lightly gasps. "You mean the pods arrived back home?" Zander asked. Nathan and Emily nod as do Dr. Ancient and Dr. Cretatia. "Allow us to explain." Emily said as she begins to tell the story, "It all happened after the Backlander left our time period."
"Sorry to interrupt, but what a Backlander?" Max asks.
Dr. Cretatia tells him, "That's the name of the time machine."
"Oh." Max said. Nathan continues the story as he adjusts his glasses, "Now neither of us expected anyone returning from the expedition until later on that same week, but something happened about two days after the Backlander left…"
Outside of the house, Nathan was taking down all of the Christmas decor around the house to store it until next year. But a bright light catches his attention as he looks behind him. Off in the distance at Dr. Ancient's lab, a rift opens up as two objects eject out of it and crash on the roof of the lab.
Nathan was horrified as he calls his wife, "Emily! Emily, hurry!"
"What is it, Nathan?" Emily asked as she ran out of the house.
"Something crashed at Dr. Ancient's lab!" He explains, "We have to go see what happened."
"On our way, we were both scared out of our minds." Emily says, "We didn't know what had happened, it might of been wreckage or an attack from the Backlander."
"But we had to check, regardless." Nathan said.
Nathan and Emily barge through the doors, they pass by many androids while making their way to the elevator, and take it up to the top floor.
The couple make it to the roof where rubble was scattered all over and the two objects, which turn out to be escape pods, lay on top of the rubble. "Are those...escape pods?" Nathan wonders.
Emily replies, "Yeah." They cautiously make their way to one of the pod.
"What we say in those pods sent chills up our spines."
As they approach, Emily wipes the dust off of the pod as the two gasp in shock.
They stumbled upon an unconscious Dr. Ancient.
"I'll check the second pod." Nathan said as he checks the second pod and says, "This on has Dr. Cretatia in it, and she is knocked out too!"
"See if you can pry those pods open." Emily tasks her husband as she pulls out a smartphone, "I'll call an ambulance." As she calls for an ambulance, Nathan tries to pry open the pods.
"So that's what happened." Jonathan said as he brings out a tray of tea and cookies. But now, Jonathan is in more of a proper butler suit. He continue to speak, "I would of never guess the pods would of brought you two back to our time."
"Same here." Dr. Cretatia said.
Dr. Ancient began to explain, "I programed the escape pods to bring us back to our time for safe measure. Turned out to be useful after...being ejected out by Dr. Z!"
" I vouldn't vorry too much, doctor." Helga told him, "Dr. Z haz learned hiz lezzon, un vill do vhatever it takes to pay you back."
"Speaking of Dr. Z, where is he?" Ursula wonders.
"And what about Seth?" Amy adds.
"Let me out of here!"
Seth was banging on Dr. Z's bedroom door, for he and Dr. Z were in a timeout. Dr. Z was lying on the bed as he tells Seth, "You do realize we cannot escape?"
"You, probably not. But I'll escape soon and get my revenge!" Seth said as he tries to pull open the door. A click sound goes off as Seth cheers, "Yes, I'm free!" Seth opens the door…
And find the Velociraptor pack outside of the door who roar at Seth before he closes the door. "Maybe staying in here is a better idea." He said as Dr. Z laughs at him, "It's not funny!"
"It is funny when someone other than me is hurt!"
"Anyways." Emily says, "At the hospital, Dr. Ancient and Dr. Cretatia were in a coma for about a week until they finally awoke one day while we visited them…"
The couple enter the hospital room to enter in on Dr. Ancient and Dr. Cretatia finally waking up. Dr. Ancient begins to talk with Nathan and Emily.
"We explained to them what had happened during the expedition." Dr. Cretatia says, "I'm sure by now, Jonathan took the time to explain everything to you all."
The D-Team and Alpha Gang nod in unison and say, "He did/ Uh-huh/ Yep."
Dr. Ancient and Dr. Cretatia began to connect tubes to their escape pods as Nathan and Emily helped as well.
"After we were released from the hospital, all of us spent the last month preparing the pods to teleport us back to the ship." Dr. Ancient continues, "Once the preparations were complete, we strapped ourselves in and set off to right the wrongs that have been done."
Dr. Ancient, Dr. Cretatia, Nathan, and Emily enter the pods. Electricity flowed through the tubes that were connected to each pod as they glowed brightly. Then the glow dims as the pods were soon gone.
"That's how we all got here." Dr. Ancient said before standing up, "But unfortunately, we won't be staying for long." The D-Team and Alpha Gang look at the doctor as Rex asks, "What do you mean, dad?" Dr. Ancient looks to his son with a somber look. He inhales a breath then says, "I mean, we will be going back home to the future."
"WHAT?!"
"Yes, I'm afraid." Dr. Ancient said as his wife continues, "You all must understand, the Backlander has been in this time period for far too long and need to be transported back home."
"So...I won't be able to see my friends again?" Rex asked his parents.
"Or my family?" Zander asks, holding onto his son.
The two scientists nod. "Now please, don't take this the wrong way." Dr. Ancient said, "But this time period isn't our true home, we have to head back to our time period." Rex looks at all of his friends with sadness, he didn't want to leave behind the friend he's made or his girlfriend. Hoping to spend time with them one last time, Rex asks his parents, "Mom, dad. I know we have to leave, but is it alright if I...spend one more night with my friends?"
Dr. Ancient and Cretatia look to each other and nod as Dr. Cretatia tells Rex, "Yes you may sweety, but just for one night." Rex nods his head, agreeing to his parents terms.
The D-Team enters the Taylor household without saying much. But once they've entered the living room, they're met with Aki who hugs Max and Dr. Taylor. "Oh thank goodness you two are alright." She said, "I was worried sick when that spaceship and dinosaurs appeared. Where were you two?!"
Max looks to his dad who nudged his head towards his mom, Max knew it was time to come clean. "Mom…" Max begins, "We were on that spaceship fighting for the city."
Aki didn't know how to respond to that, she says, "You're...you're joking. He's joking, right Spike?"
Dr. Taylor shook his head, "I'm afraid not, Aki. In fact we all have some explaining to do." Dr. Taylor begins to explain everything to his wife about the dinosaurs and the Alpha Gang. As he goes on, Aki's eyes widen while covering her mouth with her hands in shock. After the explanation, Aki says, "You're telling me that all this time those 'dogs' we had in the house were actual dinosaurs? And no one ever bothered to tell me?!"
The others cower a little as Max's mom raised her voice. "We didn't know how you would've reacted." Max said before lowering his head, "But it doesn't matter now."
"What do you mean?" Aki asked.
"Mrs. Taylor, that spaceship is taking those dinosaurs home." Meena says.
Amy adds, "Even Rex."
"Huh?"
"It turns our Rex is from the future and has to go home." Zoe said. Aki was really surprised now. "Tonight will be Rex's last night, mom. Would it be alright if we have a sleepover tonight?" Max asked. Aki thought for a while on the subject, If it really was Rex' last night here then one sleepover wouldn't hurt. She looks to Max and smiles, "Of course, Max. We'll make sure Rex has his last night here one to remember."
Zander and Reese have finally made it home while carrying their twins who're fast asleep. Once they enter, Mrs. Drake rushed to Reese and hugged her while saying, "Reese, you're alright! I'm sorry about the twins, there were these robots that barged in here and-"
"Mom, it's alright." Reese said, "We got them back, safe and sound."
Mrs. Drake tries to calm down as she asks her daughter, "Where were they when you found them, and off topic what happened to your dogs?" Zander and Reese look back at one another before Reese tries to explain, "They were...on that spaceship from earlier. And...about our 'dogs', they're um-"
"They're actually dinosaurs."
Everyone looks to Dr. Drake surprised as Zander asks him, "You knew?"
"Oh please, Zander." He said, "I'm a veterinarian, remember? Of course I knew."
"H...How long?" Rese stuttered.
"Ever since Zoe brought Paris home." Dr. Drake explained, "But I decided to keep it secret, you know how Zoe get when she's caught red-handed. Speaking of her, where is she?"
"She's spending the night at Max's for a sleepover. It's Rex's last night here and…"Reese begins to tear up, "...and Zander's." Dr. Drake and Mrs. Drake didn't know how to take this. "Reese, are you saying that-"
"No, it's nothing like that!" Zander said, "However, I have some explaining for you." Zander tells his in laws the truth about him being from the future. Mrs. Drake nearly fainted again before Dr. Drake tried to hold her upright. "Sorry." Mrs. drake apologized as she looks to Zander, "So, tonight is your last night?" Zander replies, "I'm afraid so."
Then suddenly, Reese take Corey from Zander and rushes up the stair as Zander calls out, "Reese? Reese!" Then he began to chase after her.
Later that night back at Max's house, everyone was in their pajamas as they each held a glass before giving a toast. "To Rex, for being a great friend and an honorable member of the D-Team." Max said while raising his glass.
Meena and Amy do the same, "To Rex."
"I don't know what to say, you guys." Rex said, "Thank you all, I don't know how I'd go on without you guys."
"Just remember us, that' all we ask." Meena said.
Rex gives her a thumbs up, "Will do."
Sitting next to her boyfriend, Zoe had been silent for the longest time until she asks him, "Rex, does this mean our relationship is over?" Rex frowns once Zoe brought that up. He upped her cheek and turns her head towards him. "Zoe, there's no way I'd end our relationship that easily." He said, "Once I'm home I wouldn't dare find another girl, because you're the only girl I would ever be with. I take this promise to the future AND to my own grave."
Zoe began to tear up. "Oh, Rex!" She then clung to him and let tear run free. Rex follows in suit as he too began to cry. "This is getting to be too much for me." Max said as he wipes a tear from his eye. But he too broke down and hugged his best friend. Meena and Amy follow in suit as the five began to mourn for Rex moving away.
Reese was holding onto her twins as she was crying softly before someone began knocking on her door.
It turned out to be Zander as he call from behind to door, "Reese?"
"Go away!" She cries.
But Zander opens the door and asks, "My angel, what's wrong? You know you can tell me, right?"
Reese looks down at her two children as a tear slides down her cheek. "I don't want our family to be broken up. I want the twins to grow up with their father. Like...like a regular family" Reese tells him, "If you leave, I don't know how I'd go through life without you. The twins will grow up not knowing who their father is, or...know where he even is!" Reese continued to cry.
Zander felt awful for having to leave his beloved angel. He sits next to her on the bed, wraps his arms around his wife, and lets her cry into his shoulder. "I know it's tough Reese, even I'm having a hard time keeping it together. But, we must remain strong." He said, "We have to be brave not just for us, but for Corey and Lily." Reese looks up and says, "You...you're right, Zander. We have to...have to be strong." The couple rest their foreheads on each other as they held their embrace.
Back at Zeta Point, Dr. Ancient and Cretatia were now getting ready for bed. As Dr. Cretatia was removing her lipstick, Dr. Ancient was sitting on his bed deep in thought. "Something wrong, dear?" Dr. Cretatia asked.
"I don't know." He replies, "For some reason I just feel… I don't know, guilty. "
Dr. Cretatia says, "I know you couldn't do anything when we were casted off of the ship, but-"
"It's not about what happened during our separation."
"Huh?" Dr. Cretatia said, confused, "Well, what's it about then?"
Dr. Ancient lets out a sigh. "It's...it's about taking Rex away from here. I know he came here accidentally, but I just can't stop feeling guilty about bringing him back home. He's made plenty of friends here and has a nice life here." He continues, "Let's also not forget about Zander, he's managed to get married and have two kids here. He has a nice life here as well."
"Sweetheart, I know how you feel." Dr. Cretatia said as she embraced her husband, "But as much as we don't want to do this, we have to bring them back home to our own time. Who know what'll happen to the timeline."
"I know, I know." Dr. Ancient said, "But there's one more thing kind of bugging me."
"What's that?"
"Do you notice every time we see Rex, he's next to one of his friends with the pink hair?" He asks.
Dr. Cretatia thought about it for a minute before realizing what her husband was saying is true. "I have noticed that." She said, "Do you think it's a coincidence?"
"I doubt it." Dr. Ancient said before getting an idea, "Hang on, I'm going to call Zander for a sec to see if he has an answer." Dr. Ancient takes out an Alpha scanner from a hidden compartment and began to contact the tall man.
Zander was puting Corey in his crib as he kisses him good night as a tear rolls down. "Good night, my son." He said, trying not to cry on the spot. He tip toes out of the room when he gets a call from his Alpha scanner. He picks up the call to see Dr. Ancient and Cretatia calling. "Dr. Ancient?" He said, "What are you doing calling me this late?"
"Hey, Zander. I just have a question for you, if you don't mind." Dr. Ancient said, "You know that girl with the pink hair that was with Rex, is she important to Rex somehow?"
"Zander nods his head, "Yeah, Zoe is Rex's girlfriend."
Both scientists were stunned. "Did you just say 'girlfriend'?"
"I did." Zander replied, "I have to go, I need to comfort my angel before tomorrow comes."
"Alright, goodnight Zander." Dr. Ancient said before hanging up the call. Afterwards, Zander slumps as he makes his way back to his room while saying, "Why does this have to happen?"
Dr. Ancient began to pace back and forth over the information he and his wife were given. "I cannot believe this, Rex has a girlfriend!" Dr. Ancient said.
"Our boy has grown up so much here." Dr. Cretatia said, "Now the guilt is really getting to me. We need to go home, but I don't dare to try separating Rex from his girlfriend. What do we do now?"
Dr. Ancient wrapped a finger around his chin and began to think of what to do now. It's either head back to the future or stay here in the past. "As much as I'd like to stay, we can't." Dr. Ancient said, "Now hear me out Cretatia, It not that I want to leave it's just the ship we're living in. People are going to question why the ship is still here and think it might be an invasion or something like that. Besides, the cloak can only go on for so long"
"At least we have the cloak on." Dr. Cretatia said, "But you're right, the cloak will run out soon. So, is there no way we can stay here?"
"I'm afraid without a proper cover for the ship, there no way we could blend in with…" Right then, Dr. Ancient got an idea, "Wait a minute, I have an idea. Follow me." Dr. Cretatia follows Dr. Ancient into the hall towards Dr. Z's room. He knocks on the door, "Dr. Z?"
The door open as Dr. Z appears in his pajamas. "What is it?" He asks.
"We need you for something." Dr. Ancient said, "follow me to the living room." Dr. Z began to exit his room when...
"Wait! What about Seth?" Dr. Cretatia asked.
Dr. Z explained, "Oh, the Velociraptor pack is sleeping on him so he cannot get up or hill have his face bitten off." Dr. Ancient and Cretatia were slightly disgusted while Dr. Z snickered.
In the living room, Dr. Ancient asks Dr. Z, "Do you remember how you covered up the Backlander?"
"Of course I do. It was so fool proof, even the D-Team has a hard time finding out about the Backlander." he says, "We used a spare island as cover up, was quite nice relaxing on the beach." Dr. Ancient thought this over and says, "Think you can make two new move cards for me."
"Huh?"
"I need you to make me a Grass move card and an Earth move card." Dr. Ancient instructed.
Dr. Z asks, "Will I be able to get out of my punishment?"
"If you cooperate well."
Deal!" Dr. Z and Dr. Ancient shook hands before Dr. Z went to work.
The sun rolled high over Sanjo City as the D-Team has made it to the D-Lab, but now this time they've brought Aki to the lab. Even Reese and Zander bought Dr. Drake and Mrs. Drake with.
"Well...this is it." Rex said.
"Our final frontier." Zander finished. Everyone then headed inside the D-Lab. Reese sets up the coordinates for the teleporter to bring them to the Backlander. "Coordinates are set and the teleporter can take those without dinosaurs." She said.
"Rex." Max said. Rex turned to his best friend who says, "Before we go, I just want to say thank you for the adventures we've had. And deep down you're more than a friend to me, you're like the brother I've never had." Rex smiles as he thanks him, "Same here Max, you always felt like a brother to me too." The two shared a hug.
Zander was kneeling down by the stroller as he looks at his beautiful children. "Corey, Lily, can daddy get a kiss?" Corey reached his arms out as he kissed his dad's cheek. Then Lily kissed Zander's nse before giving a hug. Zander smiled, "I'll miss you two dearly."
Then, URsula and Ed enter the lab. "Alright, is everyone ready?" Ed asks.
Everyone nods.
"Alright, let's get on the teleporter." Ursula said. Then, everyone steps onto the teleporter and with the push of a button teleported to the Backlander.
After teleporting, the D-Team and Alpha Trio were shocked by what they;ve teleported on…
…
...the island that covered up the Backlander.
"What the?" Max said, "How are we even on this island?"
"I see you've all made it." Walking up to the team was Dr. Ancient, Dr. Cretatia, Dr. Z, Helga, Nathan, Emily, Rod and Laura. "A nice view isn't it?" Dr. Ancient asked.
"Dad?" Rex asked, "What's going on?"
"I've decided last night that we're not going anywhere, we're staying here." Everyone was confused as Dr. Cretatia continued to explain, "We discussed last night whether or not to head back to the future. We chose not to for a few reasons." Dr. Cretatia knelt down in front of her son. "Rex, you've lived so much of your life in this time period and have made so many friends that it would be rude for you to leave them behind." She said, "Not to mention, you forgot to introduce your dad and I to your girlfriend." Rex blushed red as Zoe appear next to him and said, "If that's the case. Hi, I'm Zoe Drake and I gotta say Rex is the best guy I could ever date." Rex couldn't help but smile as he blushed still.
"Also, Zander." Dr. Ancient said, "You have such a wonderful family here, a loving with, and two beautiful children. After what had happened to me, I wouldn't dare separate you from your family. So I had Dr. Z recreate the island with these." Dr. Ancient held up two move cards. "He invented Sand Trap to cover the Backlander with sand and Green Impulse to restore the vegetation all over the island. We used the dinosaurs to restore the island so it's at least habitable."
"So, does that mean…?" Rex began to ask as Dr. Cretatia answers, "Yes, we're staying!"
Then, everyone began to cheer. Zoe then glopms Rex to the floor as Max, Meena and Amy join in. "Hang on ,I gotta get a picture of us!" Zoe said. Then the five got back up as Zoe tries to set her phone up to take a picture.
"Oh, this is fantastic!" Zander said as he hold Corey up, "Isn't it, Corey?" But Corey began to make weird noises as Reese asks, "Corey, are you alright? And then…
…
…
…
…
.."Da...da!"
Everyone stopped cheering for a second as they look at the young infant. Zander and Reese were surprised as Zander stutters, "Did...did...did I hear what I think I just heard?"
"If you think Corey said his first words, then I'd say yes." Ed said.
Corey then said it again, "Da da!"
Zander smiled wide as he hugged his son, "Oh, Corey! You said your first words!"
"Da da!" Zander and Reese look to Corey confused, those last words didn't sound like him. "That didn't sound like Corey." Reese said.
But then it hits them.
Reese takes Lily out of the stroller and takes her near Zander. Lily reaches out and says, "Da da!" Zander and Reese laugh as Zander held the twins and said, "Oh what a day! I get to stay with my family and the twins said their first words!"
Reese asks, "Did anyone record that?"
"I did." Zoe said, "Turns out I was recording instead of taking pictures, but it turns out to of worked in the end."
"Well now that everyone's spirits are up, I say we throw a party right here!" Nathan declared.
Dr. Ancient agreed, "Sounds good to me!"
Later on, a table was set up in the jungle as everyone began to party. They even let out the dinosaur to party too. Right now; Max, Meena, and Dr. Taylor were showing off Chomp to Aki; Dr. Drake and Mrs. Drake rode on Iguanodon as Zoe showed them how to ride a dinosaur; Reese and Zander were letting Corey and Lily play with Maiasaura and her son; Ed was chowing down on the food as Nathan and Emily giggled while Helga got more food out; Amy, Rod and Laura were dancing to music along with Smokey; and Rex was introducing Dr. Owen to his real parents.
"It's real nice to meet the man who helped raise my son." Dr. Ancient said as he shook hand with Dr. Owen.
"The pleasure's all mine." Dr. Owen said with a smile, "Rex is always a good boy, and the best son I could ever adopt."
"We're glad you think that." Dr. Cretatia said.
"Of course!" Dr. Owen says before showing a sly smile, "Now you two wouldn't know where Ursula would be, would you?"
"I think I saw her over there." Dr. Ancient pointed out. Dr. Owen exclaims, "Excellent!" Then races off to find her, all while Rex rolls his eyes for what was about to happen.
"Ursula, my love!" Dr. Owen said as he caught up to his crush, "Oh, this is wonderful you get to stay here in my time. Now I know it's a bit of a long shot, but would you be alright if we go out sometime?"
"Sure."
Dr. Owen's eyes lit up, "Really?!"
"Well, I guess I kinda owe you for sticking it up to you for so long." Ursula said, "So, why not." She then leans forward and kissed Dr. Owen;s cheek, which results in him fainting on the spot as Ursula chuckles.
From afar, Dr. Ancient and Cretatia watched and couldn't help but chuckle too. Rex was just shocked as he says, "Well, that was unexpected."
"Come on now, Rex." Dr. Ancient said, "Love is love."
"True." Rex shrugged.
"How about we get some food?" Dr. Cretatia said, "I've made some of my special cookies for you Rex." Rex follows his parents and says, "I do love cookies."
"Then you'll love your mother's recipe." Dr. Ancient said. The laughs and cheers of everyone filled the airways of the island, and from then on the mood on the island will always be happy and joyful.
...The End...
