The early morning light shone over the Taylor Household as Rex was reading a new Dinosaur book he bought. He flipped pages over looking at the different Dinosaurs before he noticed a particular page. "There you are from the old days, Ace!" He told the little Carnotaurus, who was currently exploring the room. The place was truly an interesting living space. "Man, this limited edition book was worth every penny from those five months of allowance I used to pay for it." He thought to himself.
"Interesting." Ace told him as he looked around on a shelf. As he did, he accidentally knocked some objects over.
"Ace, could you calm down a bit with the exploring? I'm trying to read here." Rex told his roommate as he crossed his arms under his chest. Ace nodded and simply went to the other side of the room. However, he was unaware he accidentally went right over Rex's book.
The blonde looked down at the page Ace just walked over. "Huh?" He quickly noticed large muddy footprints covering the page. "Aaagh! Look what you just did to my new book! It's ruined!" Rex yelled.
Ace quickly ran over. "I'm sorry! Here, let me fix it!" He quickly answered as he began to lick the page. All this did was make it worse, and Rex could clearly tell.
"Now there's spit all over it!" As he and Ace had their little problem, Rhysa, Max and Zoe were currently outside with their Dinosaur friends.
"Haha! Stop! That tickles, Chomp!" Max cried out in laughter as the Triceratops kept on biting him.
"Never! Surrender, foolish mortal!" Chomp replied, sounding all evil-like. Chomp then bit down on Max's rear, causing him to laugh even more.
"Ooh! That's even worse!" Max laughed out loud. While those two were playing, Terry and Dread were currently napping on the porch while Zoe played with Paris and Rhysa played with Stiggy and Stigga.
"Hey, Max, maybe you should try calling your dad to see if he's landed in London?" Zoe asked. Spike recently got a picture from a museum with a peculiar looking object in the corner of the photo. They have reason to believe it is another stone. So it was decided Spike would fly over to London and investigate it.
"I hope he's found that object soon." Rhysa said as she petted Stiggy on the head.
"Maybe, but I thought he said he wouldn't be there until dinner time." Max replied as he rubbed Chomp's head.
"You're right." Zoe remembered. "I guess I'm just super excited to hear if that thing in the picture was truly a stone or not."
"Well, hopefully we'll know when he gets to the museum." Paris said. "It looked a little hard to see in the picture." She kicked at the ground trying to calm herself down from the attention. She never did well with strangers. Even though the D-Team was going to be her new family, she did only just meet them all the other day.
Spiny then fell down from the tree he was trying to climb up for some reason.
"Shouldn't that Stone be the last one considering there's only one open space left when we put them together?" He asked. His eyes then widened with shock. "Oh my god! I said something intelligent!"
"Well, that was only with the Outer Stones." Max reminded Spiny. "And it really depends how many Stones the Hybro Gang has in their possession." Everyone nodded in understanding. Hopefully, this was the last Stone in the open that they needed to get.
"That's a good point Max." Rhysa agreed. "If we can get this one then that'll give us a huge advantage."
Just as they were about to resume their playtime, Ace ran into the yard, clearly in a hurry. "Ace! Hold on! Get back here!" They all turned to see Rex run outside, clearly looking upset.
"What's the matter, Rex?" Terry asked as he opened his eyes.
"Something wrong?" Dread asked, waking up from his nap.
"Ace just totally ruined my brand new collectable Dinosaur book!" He explained angrily.
"What did he do?" Max asked as he looked at the Carnotaurus hiding behind him.
"He stomped all over it and got the pages all mucked up!"
"Oh, that's what happened?" Spiny asked. "Pfff! Just simply throw it in the mud and it'll join the rest of the mud." He suggested. "No wait, more mud would only make it worse."
"I think it would be best to use water instead." Paris suggested.
"No need to. He licked them off with his slobbery tongue!" Rex answered. It seemed the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
Everyone became a little grossed out by that. "Well, at least he was trying to help." Zoe said, trying to calm the blonde down. Ace simply shrunk behind Max, muttering something no one could make out.
"Yeah Rex, and besides, books are replaceable." Rhysa added. "I'm sure we can find another one."
"Who's hungry?" Aki asked as she brought a plate of juice to the table. She then took notice of Spiny and Paris. "Zoe, I see a couple of little Dogs followed you home as well."
Zoe tensed and nodded sheepishly while Spiny tried to introduce himself. "Hell-" He never got to finish as Dread and Terry covered his mouth with their feet, despite the fact they have a telepathic-like way of talking.
"Remember? We're not supposed to talk to the humans unless we're told we can!" Terry hissed quietly.
"That includes Max's mother, remember?" Dread whispered quietly.
"Sorry." Spiny muttered. "I forgot, it won't happen again."
Aki took the Sauropod and the two Theropods' conversation as simply the Dogs roughhousing and looked at them all. "There sure are a lot of extraordinary Dogs roaming the streets these days." She told them.
"Yeah! That's right!" Zoe answered, while Max just smiled sheepishly, hugging Chomp.
Aki grabbed the plates of food and put them next to the drinks. "Enjoy your food. Should I get some food for the Doggies too?"
"Maybe for the other seven." Rex answered. His look then turned cold as he looked in his partner's direction. "But not for Ace!" He said sternly.
Ace could only shrink back at Rex's harsh tone as he tried to make himself disappear. "Forgive me." He thought grimly.
(Intro theme)
At Zeta Point, Dr.N was currently looking over a map of Europe. He was holding something in his hands as he shook them like he was about to roll some dice. "Shake-a-bone! Shake-a-bone, stew! Ride your own Dinosaur two by two!" He chanted as he rolled the bones onto the map. They rolled around and two claw bones pointed towards London. Seeing this, the mad doctor laughed maniacally. "Eh, ha, ha, ha, ha! No matter how many times I do it, it always says London! See for yourselves! Take a look! See?!" He told his grandchildren, who were also present in the room, before laughing again. "Ha, ha, ha! Bones don't lie!"
Needless to say, the two kids weren't impressed. "Maybe you should try something a little more scientific?" Rod suggested.
Laura agreed. "Yeah, Grandpa, why are you messing around with Dinosaur bones?" She asked.
"Come on, Laura. Let's leave him alone with his fortune-telling." Rod said as he signaled Laura to join him as they left the room.
The pinkette walked up to her brother and asked. "You think he's OK? Slander said something about losing a marble, but I'm not sure what that means." Rod knew what Slander told his little sister, but decided to keep quiet for his grandpa's sake.
Dr.N overheard this, but misunderstood what Laura said. "I haven't lost marbles, only Dinosaurs!" He told himself as he gained a look of determination. "But that won't matter now that the bones can find them!"
DK
In the foggy streets of London, Spike made his way to the museum he got the picture from. After making sure it was the right place, he made his way inside to meet with one of the employees. "OK, let's get right to business." He told the employee. He reached into his pocket and grabbed the photo. "I took a picture of a fossil earlier, and when the picture was developed I noticed this object in the corner." He pointed to a lighter object that was sticking out a bit of the ground.
While they were having their discussion, the Hybro Gang was also in the museum. Managing to sneak in, the quartet made their way through a Dinosaur hall, trying to find any sign of a Card anywhere. The room was dark, so Louisa and Slander had flashlights on to give them better light. Tred was carrying a large amount of bags and boxes that Cursula had bought beforehand when they arrived. And Cursula herself was currently doing what she does best. Complaining.
"This is absurd. Here we are in London because of a bone-headed bone game that Dr.N likes to play. Ridiculous! And I'm honestly surprised at the two of you for buying into it."
Tred looked over at her like she was crazy. "But, Cursula, all you've been doing is shopping and we're supposed to be looking for Dinosaurs." He reminded her.
This was greeted by a whack to the head. "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought we were here looking for designer stores!" Cursula answered sarcastically.
Slander didn't catch onto the memo "Well, that's understandable. It could happen to anyone." He looked around for a bit before his flashlight shined right into the skull of a T-Rex. Startled, Slander backed up and crashed into Louisa, Cursula and Tred, causing boxes and bones to go flying everywhere.
After the quartet recovered, Cursula glared at the tall man who caused the mess. "Do I have to remind you that the Hybro Gang strikes fear in others? We shouldn't be afraid of a bunch of bones." She hissed.
"What are you scared of a bunch of old bones!" Louisa scolded. "We're the Hybro Gang and we're much tougher than that!"
Tred backed her up. "Yeah, Slander, we are in a museum. What were you expecting to see?"
Slander retorted. "Well excuse me for not liking skeletons!" He answered before shivering.
As they rubbed their heads, Cursula noticed a strange-looking rock next to her. "What's this?" She asked no one in particular. She pulled the dirt that was covering the rock off to get a better look. When she did she got a smirk on her face. "I found a Stone!" Her partners looked at the rock she was holding and sure enough, it was a Stone. This one had a purple outline of a crack and a mountain on it.
"Perfect for once you actually did something right, Cursula." Louisa laughed.
Before they could celebrate, however, an alarm went off as the room lit up. "Let's get out of here!" Cursula announced as she and the other three left. She looked back and noticed something wrong with Tred. "You don't seriously think I'm leaving here without all of my purchases, do you? Go get them!" She ordered the short man.
"Whaaaat?!" Was all he could say.
Soon the room began filling up with cops. "Secure the exits!" One ordered as they began to head right towards them with their batons.
Louisa got into a fighting stance, ready to fight to the end, while Cursula hid behind Slander to keep herself safe. "What are they doing here?! Get rid of them!" She ordered.
"You heard her, Slander, get rid of them." Tred said in a mocking tone. How was he supposed to fight with his hands full?
Slander put his hands to his head. "My brain is going to explode! I can't handle all this anxiety in one place!" He said before the cops got to them.
Again boxes and bones were sent flying everywhere, along with even more objects. Slander tried to block their batons with the skeleton of the tail, while Tred was being chased around with a skull covering his whole head, Cursula hid behind a skeleton trying to distract the cops. "Uh, look, officers! Over there! I think I see a doughnut shop!"
As the fighting went on, Slander accidentally knocked into a Capsule and made it hit the wall. The Capsule opened and Two Cards came out. Soon the dirt from a tree that was placed in the room fell onto the Cards and they began to glow purple. Everyone turned towards the glow as another Dinosaur emerged.
This Dinosaur was a Quadruped. It had a hard purple back and tan underbelly with long rows containing many large, yellow spikes all over both its back and side, a long tail with spikes on the side, and a large club at the end. Its neck had small purple spikes while four more came from under its eyes, and it had noticeable flat teeth. This Dinosaur was a Saichania.
"A Saichania!" Louisa identified.
The Armored Herbivore looked around at the weird-looking Mammals, while they all looked at it. All the while Slander simply said. "Did I do that?"
The Saichania eventually decided the tiny Mammals weren't worth it and decided to look for some food. As it left the cops raised their batons and chased after it. This didn't go unnoticed. "You honestly think those little sticks are enough to take me out?" The Saichania thought arrogantly. "As a great teacher once said. Can't touch this!" It then swung its tail, hitting all the cops on the head and making them all retreat.
All this time, the Hybro Gang just watched. "I hate to say I told you so." Cursula said with a smile. "But I knew that prediction would be right!" It was obvious she was lying, but honestly who cared?
At this same time, Spike and Brady came into the damaged room. "Oh, wow! A real-live Saichania!" Spike said in shock. The Armored Dinosaur eventually decided it had to take care of some more important matters. With the swing of a tail, it smashed the wall giving it a tunnel to walk out of in search of food.
As it left, Cursula immediately got to her feet. "Let's go! That Dinosaur's not going to catch itself now, is it?" She asked the other two while jogging in place. The two men eventually caught up with her and they left the room, but again she noticed Tred had a problem. "Tred! I'm not going to tell you again! My purchases need to come with me!"
"Wh-whaaaaaa?" Was all he could say.
Louisa just groaned. "Come on you idiots! We've got a Dinosaur to catch!" She said impatiently.
He immediately grabbed the bags and they ran into the tunnel. "Thank you."
All this time, Spike could only say. "Well, Brady, it's not every day you see a Saichania running around in your museum, is it?"

Back with the D-Team, they had just finished their food and were back discussing Rex's book outside. Ace simply looked away from Rex, not wanting to look him in the eyes. "Sorry your book got all ruined, Rex." Max said.
"I told him to calm down and stop jumping around!" Rex told them. This only made Ace feel worse.
"Well, he seems very sorry, I think you should just let it go." Zoe told Rex.
"Fire! That should fix the problem!" Spiny suddenly exclaimed. "No wait, fire burns things doesn't it?"
"Yeah Spiny." Rhysa said. "I'm sure I can find another one of those books Rex."
Just then, the Dino Holders began to go off. "Oh!" Max said as he grabbed the device.
Zoe, Rhysa and Rex did the same thing. "Hey, the Dino Holder's beeping." Zoe told the others.
"Hey! Maybe a new Card's been found!" Chomp said as he ran up to Max.
"Yeah, but where?" Max said as he looked at the screen.
"London, England." Rex confirmed.
Max immediately stood up. "Hey, that's where my dad is right now!" He said before taking off, with Chomp and Terry close behind him.
"It's Dinosaur Rescue Time!" Rhysa cheered as she and her team raced after Max and his partners.
"Wait, Max! We're coming too!" Zoe called out before she, Paris, and Spiny ran after the brunette.
Rex and Ace simply looked at each other in silence before Ace darted ahead, Rex followed from behind. "Hold on a minute, Ace!"
DK
It didn't take long for them to arrive at the D-Lab. Immediately they began calling for Reese, Diego, Alicia, and Dora.
"Reese!"
"Hey, Reese!"
"Cousins? Are you guys here?"
"Where are you?!"
"There they are!" Max said as they ran into the room.
Reese turned away from her computer to look at the team. "I was expecting you. Ready for transport?" Her answer was them getting onto the platform they used before. "You're going to London." She reminded them before she started putting in the locations.
"Go rescuing Cuz!" Alicia cheered.
Ace started squirming around, as Rex tried to stop him from jumping off. "Ace, quit fooling around." Rex told him sternly. This only made the squirming worse.
"Let's go!" Max declared as he and the others pushed the button on their Dino Holders. Immediately a glow covered them and they were teleported away.
"Let's hope they can save this Dinosaur." Dora said.
DK
It didn't take long for them to arrive in the London museum Spike was at, coincidentally in the same room he was in. "Oh! I'm so glad you're here, kids!" He said as he ran up to them. Brady, on the other hand, looked a little freaked out.
"So, did you find another Card, Dad?" Max asked as he and the others began looking around the room. While not destroyed it was very messy.
"We got a lot more than that. A full-sized Saichania is hiding in this very museum." Spike answered.
"A Saichania?!" Spiny exclaimed.
Ace took this moment of distraction to leap out of Rex's arms and started to run away again. "Ace!" Rex called out as he started to chase the Carnotaurus. He turned back to the group. "I'll help you look after I get Ace back!" He said as he ran off after him.
"Unfortunately the Hybro Gang's already here. So let's hurry and find it before they do." Spike told them.
"You mean the old lady's here?" Zoe asked.
"Do you ever get that feeling someone is talking about you?" Cursula asked her partners as they ran down a hall on a completely different level.
"I knew a Saichania once!" Spiny suddenly said.
"Really? What were they like?" Max asked.
"Every time I said a word to them they would tell me to shut up and proceed to hit me with their tail until I had a concussion." Spiny explained. "Then, when I saw them again, they would scream no before attacking me again." He finished cheerfully. "I think they liked me." He whispered to Paris.
"I'm pretty sure they did." Stiggy said.
"Well let's see if this is the same Saichania from before! Let's go, guys!" Max told his partners as they ran off in one direction, Rhysa and her partners raced down one hall, Zoe and her Dinosaurs went in another. "Dad! Maybe you could try and find a way to lure it out somehow!" Max called out to his dad before exiting the room.
"That's not a bad idea." Spike thought to himself. "Let's see, Saichanias were thought to live near water. What other large Animals live near water? Oh yeah, Hippos!" He then turned to Brady. "Hey, Brady, have any Hippo chow lying around?"
Brady could only blink. "Hippopotamus?" He asked.
DK
With the Hybro Gang, they were currently in one of the lower levels, searching for the Dinosaur. Tred was currently struggling to keep his balance and grip on the boxes he was carrying. "These boxes are getting heavy, Slander. Mind giving me a hand?" He asked.
"Can't you see I'm looking for a Dinosaur?" Slander replied in an offended tone. There was no way he would be carrying around all of those boxes.
"I think we should split up." Cursula announced as they approached some stairs. "So you two stay on this floor, while I go upstairs. If you find it, use Maximus to battle with."
"Never fear! Tred and Slander are here!" Slander saluted her.
"Whatever." Was all Cursula could say before going up the stairs. Hopefully she could get it with Armatus and Gigas.
"Well I'm going to search on my own." Louisa said, walking down another hallway.
DK
Max, Chomp, and Terry were currently running down a hall trying to find the Saichania. "This palace is huge." Max told his partners. "How are we ever going to find it?" Terry sniffed the air before catching onto something.
"This way!" He announced. The group ran into a room hoping to find the Dinosaur and ended up in a room of Dinosaur statues.
Even though he now has real ones, Max couldn't help but be amazed at the style of the sculptures. "Woah! Check out all these Dinosaurs, guys." Max used his visors to light up the room to get a better look at the sculptures. He soon went to one that looked like a Saichania. "Is this it? Or is it another statue?" He asked himself. "Looks real to me." He said as he reached out to touch it.
This was in fact, the Saichania. "Touch me and I'll show you fake!" It thought as this oversized mammal decided to go violating its space.
Thankfully for it, Max got distracted when he noticed Terry nuzzling a statue of a Tyrannosaurus. "Oh, Terry, you miss your family?" Max asked him. He couldn't imagine what it would be like if he was in Terry's position. Possibly the last of your kind.
"Yeah." Terry replied sadly. "I mean, I still have Chomp. But everyone else." He couldn't get himself to finish the sentence as Max pulled him and Chomp into a hug.
"Don't forget, guys, that me and the D-Team are your family now." Max said with a smile on his face. "And we're going to have tons of adventures just like this one. Now let's go find that Saichania!"
"Yeah!" Both Dinosaurs cheered before they ran out of the room. All this while, the Saichania just watched.
"Touching scene." It said to itself. "Nice kid, but not my type. Especially on an empty stomach." It said when it noticed a tasty looking plant. The Armoured Herbivore took a bite of the plant, only to realize it was plastic.
DK
Ace was currently running down another hall, trying to get away from Rex. His plan was to stay away from him until everything was better again. But, for some reason, Rex wouldn't let him leave.
As he ran down the hallway, Slander and Tred took notice of the Small Theropod. "Did you see that?" Slander asked his partner.
"Wasn't that one of the Dinosaurs the brats used on us in the desert?" The short man asked.
"You're right." The tall man replied. "Now let's go get it!" They immediately chased after Ace, only to run into Rex, literally.
As Rex got back up he glared at who got in his way. "Errr! What are you guys doing here, and how come you're always following us around?!" He asked the duo angrily.
"That's what I was going to ask you!" Slander yelled back.
"If you're here looking for that Saichania, you can forget it!" Tred told him as he started grabbing the boxes again.
"Believe it or not, I actually have a bigger mess than you two to deal with right now!" Rex told them before running after Ace.
"Oh, I doubt that!" Slander retorted. "There is no bigger mess than us!"
"Uh, Slander?" Tred simply said.
"Yes, Tred. Realised it the moment I said it. I am so sorry." The tall man apologised before the wall suddenly burst.
The Saichania's head soon stuck out. And it was pissed after eating the plastic leaf. "SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE TODAY!" It screamed before noticing the two Humans. "YOU!" It said before it started to chase them.
"Run!" Both of them told each other before the chase pursued.
"GET BACK HERE! I'M GOING TO TAKE YOUR DICKS AND SHOVE THEM UP YOUR ASSHOLES!" The Saichania threatened them.
Tred and Slander quickly hid behind a wall as the Armored Dinosaur ran past them, unaware they escaped. After it left, the two men caught their breaths. "I 'gasp' am not 'gasp' going after that thing again!" Slander said.
"I agree." Tred said with tears coming out of his eyes. "Let's just go and mess with the brats." He suggested
"Yes, that sounds much less dangerous for us and our genitals." Slander said as he stood back up.
DK
Louisa was looking for the Dinosaur in the Medieval Times Exhibit. She looked at the suits of armour reminding her of Rhysa's Dino Tector that kicked her Dinosaurs in the last two battles. "Soon I'll be the one to have a trick up my sleeve!" Louisa said. "Then that brat Rhysa will know that I'm better than her!" Then Louisa spotted something Purple on one of the suits of armour. It was a Purple Element Booster that got separated from the Capsule. "Well, well, well an Element Booster. Looks like we've got the Element Booster for the Saichania." She picked it up only to hear a voice coming from the hallway.
"Let's see if the Saichania went this way team." Rhysa said from a distance. "Ah, crap!" Louisa gasped and quickly hid behind one of the thrones in the exhibit. Rhysa and her team entered the room, but Rhysa had a feeling they weren't alone.
DK
With Cursula, she was in an Egyptian exhibit looking for the Dinosaur. "Saichania!" She called out. "Where are you?! Come on out, my little tank Dinosaur!" As she looked around she noticed some of the jewelry on display. Her love for pretty things got the best of her as she started to pick them up and look at them. "This jewelry is amazing! I've never seen anything so gorgeous unless it was something hanging from my neck, or dripping from my ears!" She told herself as she began to start putting on the jewelry. While this happened, the Saichania just simply walked right behind her, clearly not interested in her little obsession.
"Ace! Hold on, pal!" The green-haired woman put down the jewelry as she looked towards who made the sound.
"Did I just hear one of those brats again?" She asked herself. Realizing she must be right, she quickly looked for a place to hide and ambush. She found a sarcophagus to hide in. She opened it up, shuddered at the creepy looking display, and closed the door.
Soon Ace and Rex ran into the room. "Ace, I'm not mad!" Rex called out. "I just want to talk to you!" The little Carnotaurus responded by hiding behind a statue hoping Rex couldn't see him, although his tail was sticking out. "Please, Ace?" Rex asked.
"I'm sorry." Ace thought grimly to himself. "But it's best a screw-up like me isn't your partner." The little Carnotaurus soon got memories of his past.
"You can't do anything right! Why do you even stay here?! Go and ruin someone else's pack!" A voice in his memory rang throughout. The Blue Theropod couldn't help but shrink down even more. The angry voice of his former alpha was a lot like Rex's. As this happened, Rex only watched sadly. What was wrong with Ace?
DK
"This place is so big." Zoe told her companions as they walked down a hall. "I feel like we've been walking around in circles."
"But it's more a square layout." Spiny answered. His eyes suddenly widened. "Unless the new human leaders made it where a square is a circle, and a circle is a square while we were cards! Soon they'll say 22 = 5 instead of 22! And then they'll make it illegal to think! Dark times ahead!" He cried to the heavens. "Wait, am I not making sense Zoe?"
Zoe chuckled to herself before patting Spiny on the head reassuringly. "Relax, Spiny. It's only a figure of speech." She then turned to notice Paris chewing on something. One of the potted plants. "Paris! No, don't eat that!" She said sternly as she ran up to the little herbivore, placing her hands on her hips.
Paris quickly realized what she did and spit out the plant. "I'm sorry!" She cried as she hid behind the plant. "I was just so hungry! And it was right there!" Tears came out of her eyes as she tried to apologize over and over, hoping Zoe would accept one of them.
Zoe silently gasped as she watched Paris bawling. "Now I know how Ace must feel." She thought to herself. She then ran up to Paris and hugged her, calming down the panicked Dinosaur.
As she and Paris had their little moment, Slander and Tred watched from behind a corner. "There's the girl, bring out Maximus." Tred told Slander.
"That's one super-powered Triceratops coming up. Ha!" The tall man replied before grabbing a card and his scanner.
"GO! MAXIMUS!"
Soon the Triceratops materialized and landed right behind the trio. "Oh, come on! We were having a touching moment!" Spiny complained.
"Let's get out of here!" Zoe shouted before the trio bolted for the nearest exit, the Large Herbivore right behind them. As they ran down the hall Zoe noticed an exit. "A door! Please be unlocked! Please! Please! Please!" She begged, but to no avail as the door wouldn't budge. She looked behind her and saw Maximus about to deal the killing blow. Thinking quickly she grabbed her Dino Holder and began to grow Paris.
"DINO SLASH! LET'S GO, PARASAUROLOPHUS!"
A fully-sized Paris landed in front of Maximus and the battle began. Again, the world changed colour, and it didn't go unnoticed.
Max was looking in another hallway when he noticed the change in scenery. "That means a battle started somewhere!" He said aloud. "But where?"
Louisa in the Medieval Times Exhibit noticed too. "So that means those idiots found the Dinosaur!" She cried, much too loudly. "Louisa I know you're in here!" Rhysa called. "Come on out and fight me or hide like a coward!" White Slash growled and leapt out of hiding. "We're not cowards!" She roared. Louisa quickly came out and grabbed White Slash. "YOU FOOL THEY'RE GOING TO SEE YOU!"
"Ah ha! There you are!" Stiggy and Stigga cried. "Whoops." Louisa said. "Oh well, time for my juicy big fat revenge!" Louisa got her Hybro Scanner out and White Slash ready.
"HYBRO SLASH! CRUSH THEM INDOMINUS REX!"
In an alternate dimension a mini White Slash went through a similar transformation sequence to Terry, except instead of fire it was DNA all around her. Then the DNA grew her arms and legs, followed by her tail, then her giant mouth with her teeth growing and she roared as DNA came out of her eyes, as she spun around and DNA erupted all around her as she roared at the sky and her transformation finished.
White Slash landed back in reality and ready to fight. "Bring it White Slash!" Dread said ready to fight. "Sorry Dread, but the room's too small for you to battle her." Rhysa said seeing how small the room was. A massive Sauropod like Dread would most likely destroy the exhibit. "Stiggy, Stigga, it's up to you two." Rhysa got her Dino Holder out and got Stiggy and Stigga ready.
"DINO SLASH! STYGIMOLOCHS SHINE YOUR LIGHT!"
Stiggy and Stigga were ready to fight the Indominus Rex but White Slash just laughed at them. "Oh come on!" She chortled. "You two don't even stand a chance against me!"
But Rhysa got her Element Booster out and her Dino Holder extended.
"ELEMENT BOOSTER! DINO TECTOR ON!"
Stiggy and Stigga now had their armour on ready to fight the Hybrid. "LET'S GO GUYS!" Rhysa called as her battle began.
Back with Zoe, Slander and Tred walked up to Maximus and surveyed the situation. "Looks like she's trapped. Huh, Slander?" Tred asked his partner smugly.
"Indeed she is." The tall man replied. "Which gives us the unfair advantage. And that's exactly how I like to play."
As Maximus advanced forward, Zoe looked around frantically. "Max, can you hear me?! Rex?! Rhysa, where are you?!"
"No one can hear you. We're in the basement!" Tred told her.
"Besides, you're hurting my ears. So just be prepared to battle and lose." Slander added before pressing some buttons on his Scanner. As he did, Maximus advanced forward.
Paris stood her ground, coming off all tough and big when she was really shaking like a leaf inside. It was then she remembered her secret weapon. "They may not hear her!" She told the Hybro Gang. "But they can definitely hear me!" She then began to use her large cone to send sound waves carrying a message: help.
"Do you really think your call will help you?" Maximus asked while everyone else looked around, confused as to where the sound was coming from.
"I'll take your screaming over that." Slander said.
"That's not me." Zoe answered, realizing that the noise was coming from Paris. "Paris is sending a message for help." Spiny whispered to Zoe. "Her Species can make those calls as a signal to alert everyone."
Sure enough, it worked as everyone could hear it. Chomp looked around before managing to pinpoint the direction of the sound. "This way! Paris is in trouble!"
While the trio ran to the battle, Louisa heard the call to. "Sounds like your friend's in trouble." Louisa said smugly, while Stiggy and Stigga bashed their domeheads against White Slash's legs. "You'd better help her and leave me alone." Rhysa knew Zoe was in trouble but she knew that Max or Rex could help her. "She'll be fine as I have faith in my teammates." Rhysa said. "Unlike you who can't trust her team." Then White Slash threw Stiggy into the wall, thankfully not destroying anything but something fell out as Dread noticed it, and raced towards it.
Meanwhile Ace and Rex looked up to see where the noise came from. "What's that sound?" Rex asked.
Ace looked around before noticing something behind Rex. Rex took notice of this. "Ace? Are you all right?"
"Move!" Ace cried out before head butting Rex out of the way of a spiky tail.
"Ahh!" Rex fired out as he got pushed out of the way. He looked up to see what the problem was. "Huh? Watch out!" He told Ace as he looked to see Armatus emerge from behind a statue, growling at Ace who was growling back.
"Ya just had to ruin my sneak attack, didn't ya, boy?" Armatus growled.
"I will always protect my pack members! Even if they don't like me!" Ace cried out.
"That was close." Rex thought to himself. "Ace, you just saved my life, pal." Something he didn't understand though was why Ace thought he didn't like him anymore.
His train of thought was broken by the sound of the sarcophagus opening up, revealing a groaning mummy. "No way! It's a creepy old mummy!" Rex exclaimed. This was not what he needed right now.
Thankfully, the mummy was only Cursula wrapped up in bandages. "Excuse me, did I just hear you say old mummy?! I may be creepy, but I'm not old!" She yelled out, offended, before calming down. "Well, that was fun while it lasted." She said as she started taking off bandages. "But now I have more important things to take care of, like catching your Carnotaurus!" She declared.
Rex growled and immediately turned Ace into his Card form and prepared for battle.
"DINO SLASH! CARNOTAURUS, BLOW THEM AWAY!"
Ace landed in front of Armatus, who only looked more excited as he did so. "Heh, heh! I've been waiting for this moment, mate! You're not going to get away with tossing me into a freaking pyramid!" He roared.
Ace could only respond by circling around the Stegosaurus trying to confuse him. This didn't work as he was able to locate Ace easily and smash him into a wall with his tail.
"Oh, no! Ace!" Rex cried out.
"Y'all need to do better than that to trick a master snipper." Armatus said arrogantly as he waited for Ace to get back up. He didn't want to just defeat him, he wanted to humiliate him.
Soon Spike entered the room, carrying a large basket of fruits and vegetables. "So you've got a Stegosaurus, too!" He growled as he looked at the situation in front of him.
Cursula could only laugh. "Ha, ha, ha! Are you kidding? Armatus doesn't want your little fruit basket! You'll have to do better than that to stop him!" She said arrogantly.
"Well, it's a good thing I brought it for the Saichania!" Spike retorted. "Nothing like a little Hippo feed to satisfy that huge stomach!"
"Oh, please! You think my little Tank will come out of hiding just because of your Hippo food." Cursula answered before bragging some more. "Yes, that's right, I already named him Tank and he's already mine! Uh, what were we talking about again!" She finished with an innocent smile on her face.

Back with Rhysa and Louisa's fight Rhysa used a Move Card. "Rainbow Blast!" Stiggy and Stigga blasted their blasts of Rainbow Energy at White Slash. She took the attack head on, she was hit with it but not enough to be carded. "It didn't work." Stiggy cried.
Rhysa looked as if she had to use Dread after all. "Alright Dread, looks like we'll need your help after all." Dread returned with a Card in his mouth. "You won't need to send me in." Dread said and handed the Card to Rhysa. It was another Card with a golden lining and the same Symbol on Rhysa's Stone. "I found this when Stiggy crashed into the wall." Rhysa turned the Card around and saw it was another Theropod Dinosaur like Terry.
"White Slash!" Louisa ordered. "Finish those pests off!" White Slash charged and was going to end the battle but Rhysa quickly slashed the new Card Dread gave her and another Dinosaur appeared on the battlefield.
The Dinosaur looked like Terry and was pretty much in the same family as Terry with the two short arms and claws. But it was coloured in auburn brown and had small bumps on its back coloured crimson. Its underbelly was camouflage green and it had mighty teeth. This Dinosaur was a Tyrannotitan.
"You again!" Louisa gasped at the new player on the field.
"That's right, my enemy!" The Tyrannotitan roared and then glowed rainbow colours as the circle appeared around him. He roared as small stones appeared around him and fired them at the Hybrid. "Taste some Secret Stone Throw for your dinner!" The Tyrannotitan roared. White Slash roared in pain giving Rhysa the opening she was looking for. "RAINBOW CHARGE!" Stiggy and Stigga roared and charged for White Slash. "Have some Rainbow Charge for dessert!" They yelled and struck her with their charges and sent White Slash crashing next to Louisa causing her to drop the Element Booster, making it slide towards Rhysa who picked it up.
"Not again!" Was all White Slash said before returning to her Card. Louisa picked up the Card but realised she was missing something. "Where's the Element Booster?" She asked. "You mean this Element Booster?" Rhysa asked, holding the Purple Booster in her hand. "Hey that's mine!" Louisa went to try and snatch the Booster back, but Stiggy, Stigga and the Tyrannotitan growled at her making her stop. "You win this time again!" Louisa called. "But while you've been battling me, the Saichania has become our Dinosaur!" And she ran off to find her teammates to see if they beat the Saichania.
"Wow another Dinosaur and it was right here in the Medieval Times exhibit!" Stigga said. "And we got the Purple Element Booster!" The Tyrannotitan was happy to be out. "I pledge I'll help you the best I can." The Tyrannotitan promised. "Can you smell and see if the Saichania's still hasn't been defeated?" Dread asked. The Tyrannotitan sniffed and quickly caught the scent of the Saichania. "It's still out there somewhere." He reported. "Excellent work Tracker." Rhysa said. "Tracker?" The Theropod asked. "Yeah, that can be your name." Rhysa explained. "You can smell really great and you can track down any scent." The newly named Tracker smiled as best as a Tyrannotitan could. "Come on, let's go find the others." Rhysa said, getting on Tracker's back.

Paris was not having an easy time as she couldn't find a good enough opening. Maximus was currently hitting her in the face repeatedly with her tail, thankfully not with a Move Card, so it wasn't as powerful. Taking a risk, Paris leapt in and hit Maximus in the rear with her head. The Triceratops was knocked back a bit, but not by much. "Did you just attack my butt?!" The Triceratops shouted, a little embarrassed.
"It was the best opening I had!" Paris shot back, also embarrassed.
Tred and Slander were currently watching the battle, and even though they were winning, they did not like where it was going. Tred turned to Slander. "Slander, what are you waiting for?! Use the Move Card!"
"Got it!" The tall man replied as he pushed some buttons and a Card came out of the Scanner. He then slashed the Card, activating the attack. "Use Spectral Punisher, Maximus! Go!"
A purple mist began to form around Maximus' horns. Soon two giant crystals came out of the mist where her horns were. The Triceratops charged towards Paris and lifted her up in the air. Soon the giant crystals fired a laser at the Parasaurolophus that hit her in the center. Paris slid across the room before crashing into a wall. She was injured but she was able to hold on.
"Hang on, Paris!" Zoe cried as her Dino Holder started flashing red, indicating low energy.
Slander and Tred laughed evilly as it seemed victory was theirs. They were wrong. "Zoe!" They all turned to see Max running towards them.
"Oh, good! I could really use your help right now, Max!" Zoe said.
"That's why we're here. Chomp helped me to find you." He answered before pressing buttons. Chomp soon returned to his card and Max slashed it.
"DINO SLASH! GO, TRICERATOPS!"
Slander and Tred immediately had worried looks on their faces as Chomp charged into the battle. He lifted up Maximus and tossed her over his head. The Triceratops landed right by Slander and Tred. "Get up! Get up! Get up!" They exclaimed.
"No way! Electric Charge!" Max called out as he used Chomp's Move Card. Chomp got his electrical powers and immediately charged towards Maximus. The other Triceratops only had a second to react before getting hit by the attack. "NOW I KNOW HOW GIGAS FEELS WHEN HE GOT HIT WITH THIS ATTACK!" She yelled, while being sent flying.
Maximus soon landed right back where she did before. "Aah! Get up! Get up! Get up!" Slander and Tred pleaded. But it was to no avail as Maximus glowed yellow and returned to her Card. The Card landed right in front of Slander and he picked it up. "That's it!?"
"All right, Chomp!" Max cheered.
"Thanks for the battle! It's been real!" Slander said as he and Tred ran away.
"But not real fun!" The short man added.
Chomp walked over to Paris and helped her back on her feet "You okay?"
"I'm fine." Paris answered. "But it seems like another battle is still going on!"
"You're right! It must be Rex and my dad!" Max realized.
"Let's roll!" Spiny exclaimed as he literally tried rolling away. It had minimal success. "Wait, this isn't going to work."
"Let's just ride in." Chomp answered before helping Max mount on his back.

Rex grabbed his Move Card and activated the attack. "Cyclone!" A tornado formed around Ace as he charged forwards. However, unlike last time, Armatus didn't run away. He instead crouched down and literally took the attack head-on. And the result was him only being knocked back a few inches. "What?!" Rex exclaimed.
"Like I said, mate, I've been waiting for this! And while doing so, I found a way to counter your little wind!" Armatus answered.
"That was a pretty nice move." Cursula commented. "But! It's times like these where I like to pull out a few good moves on my own!" She said as she flashed Armatus' Move Card before slashing it. "Armatus, fire!"
A purple mist formed again, this time it was around his back. Then about twelve giant crystals emerged from the Stegosaur's back. "Try and counter this!" He said before firing the crystals. Ace looked up trying to figure out where they would land, but he didn't have enough time to both calculate and dodge as they soon landed all over him, defeating him instantly.
"Oh, no! Ace!" Rex cried out.
"Victory is mine!" Armatus roared.
"I did it! I did it! I did it! I did it!" Cursula chanted as she ran up to pick the card.
"Not quite!" Spike said as he used his whip, part of a lizard toy he got as a kid where the tongue shot out with the press of a button, to grab the card. However, he soon noticed his whip grabbed something else. "Grrr!" That something being Armatus' mouth.
"Like I said." Armatus told him. "Y'all need to be quicker to trick a master sniper." Spike grunted as he tried to get the whip out of the herbivores' mouth. Rex ran towards the Card, hoping he could make it before Cursula.
Sadly, he was too late. "Thank you, Armatus!" Cursula beamed before leaning down to pick up the card. As she did, something tugged her cape, preventing her from grabbing the card. "Hey!" She turned and saw it was the Saichania holding her back. "Tank?!"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Did you want that?" The Saichania mocked before tossing Cursula behind itself. "Well, too bad!"
Cursula landed on top of the jewelry cases, destroying them. And, after some dusting off, she noticed something about Tank. "Wait, you're a girl?!" She exclaimed.
"You seriously couldn't tell?" Armatus asked as he accidentally opened his mouth allowing Spike to toss his whip again and grabbed the Card. "Oh no the Carnotaurus Card!" Armatus realized his mistake too late.
As he reeled the Card in, it fell into Rex's hands. " Thank god you're OK, Ace!" He thought as he hugged the Card.
Tank looked at the scene before turning her attention back to her opponents. "Uh-duh, I'm a female! You really think a male could be as tough as me?" She answered proudly. "I was awoken by the sound of violence and I want in!"
"Sexism aside, I apologize for her rude assumption. I thought Humans were better at telling genders, but they apparently make the same assumptions." Armatus said before getting into a fighting stance.
"I'll keep that in mind." Tank answered as she also got into a stance, glowing purple as well.
Soon, both Armored Dinosaurs roared and charged towards each other. Armatus swung his tail towards the Saichania, unaware that's what she wanted. She grabbed the tail in her mouth and began to swing the Stegosaurus around. The more she did, the faster it became. Soon, she let go and he smashed into a wall and returned to his Card. "Dino Swing." The Saichania commented before turning her attention towards the basket. "Guess I also got this food as a victory feast." She said before digging into the Hippo chow.
"Enjoy your snack, Saichania." Spike said.
Cursula picked up the Card and looked at the trio before laughing. "Ha, ha, ha! You may think you have another Dinosaur for your little army. But we still have the stone, so good luck using an Earth Element without the Earth Stone!"
"Joke's on you." Tank commented without looking up from her food. "You dropped the stone when I grabbed you." Rex confirmed this by picking up the stone, immediately getting a purple glow around him as he placed the stone in his Dino Holder.
"Nice job, Rex!" Spike commented before giving the blonde a pat on the back.
"WHAT!" Louisa cried as she arrived. "You let those BRATS get the EARTH STONE?!"
Cursula just growled even more before pulling out her Scanner and summoning Gigas. "Gigas, take that Saichania down!" She ordered.
Tank got into a fighting stance and Gigas charged forwards. But the battle never happened as the wall soon burst and seven more Dinosaurs, two of them having armour on came out with Rhysa, Dread, Max and Zoe on their backs.
Gigas, clearly seeing he was outnumbered, backed up. "I don't feel like getting beat up today." He told Cursula nervously. Then he noticed Tracker. "A Tyrannotitan? Where'd the blond bratette get that?"
Before Cursula could comment, Slander and Tred ran up behind her and Louisa. "Cursula, Maximus was beaten." Tred told her.
"What?! What were you idiots doing?!" She yelled at them.
The two of them backed up nervously. "Look, that Saichania over there threatened to destroy our boys, so we decided to simply mess with the brats." Slander answered.
Terry walked up forward until he was snout to snout with Gigas. "So, are you going to fight, or are you done here?" Tracker went forward and stood next to Terry. "What will it be? Fight response or flight response?"
"I have to agree with the T-Rex, and Tyrannotitan, Cursula. I'm pretty sure Dr.N wants us back at headquarters now, anyway." Slander said. Not wanting a repeat of the first encounter, despite it being hilarious.
Cursula growled to herself before pressing a button on her Scanner. Gigas glowed red and returned to a Card in Cursula's hand. The trio then left. "See ya!" Louisa followed them before she yelled. "You only beat White Slash because the Tyrannotitan helped you! Next time you'll be the loser!" With that she fled after the trio.
Spiny soon cheered. "We are the deu es macarena!"
Tank's eyes widened in horror when she heard Spiny's voice. "Noooo!" She shouted. "No! No! No! Why are you still here?! Why aren't you dead?!" She started stomping around trying to keep herself from rampaging, it wasn't helping when Chomp started to eat her victory feast. "Hey! Keep your snout out of my victory feast!" She rudely shoved him away.
"Wait, you knew Spiny from before?" Paris asked.
"Assuming you mean the headache over there, then yes!" She answered. She then turned to Rex. "Please tell me he's not living with us!" She pleaded.
Rex only sweatdropped. "Well, he doesn't live exactly with me and-"
"Good enough for me!" She said before diving back into her meal after she shoved Chomp away.
Rex then swiped Ace's Card across his Dino Holder, allowing a miniature version of him to appear. "Ace, thank you-" He wasn't able to finish as Ace quickly ran away and hid behind Tank's leg. Rex sighed as he turned to his friends. "I don't know what's going on with him anymore."
"I think I know." Zoe suggested. "I learned something from Paris that might explain his feelings." Rex nodded and let her continue. "All he wants to do is to make you happy." She explained. "So, when you scolded him he tried to fix his mistake."
"And all I did was make it worse." Rex finished. Tears threatened to come out of his eyes. He soon felt something nudge his leg. He looked down to see Ace looking at him.
"I should have told you my past." He said looking down. "My pack always called me a screwup and eventually banished me. I guess I just didn't want to relive the experience of loneliness again." He then looked at everyone around him. "But I guess I'm not so used to being around others as I thought."
Rex then embraced Ace in a tight hug. "Ace, I'm so sorry! Friendship's way more important than some dumb old book!" Feeling something bumping against him, Rex soon turned to see Tank nudging him gently.
"Any room for a tough girl like me on your team?" Rex could only smile.
"Yeah. Welcome to the team, Tank." He said before returning her to her card. Both her Card and Move Card landed in his hands. "Here Rex." Rhysa said, walking over to him. "Since Tank's an Earth Element I think you might want this." She then handed him the Purple Element Booster which Rex accepted. "A Purple Element Booster!" Rex gasped. "Rhysa where'd you find-" "Louisa found it in the Medieval Times exhibit." Rhysa explained. "Luckily I got it back from her thanks to Tracker."
Then Max noticed Tracker. "A Tyrannotitan." Max exclaimed. "Where'd you find him?" Rhysa told everyone how Dread found Tracker's Card when Stiggy crashed into the wall during the battle against Louisa. "I think it's time we head home." Rhysa suggested.

A little while later, the rest of the team, minus Spike, teleported back home. When they arrived they saw Reese, and Rhysa's Cousins waiting for them. "I take it the mission was a success." Reese asked.
"Sure did!" Max said smugly. "Reese, meet Tank the Saichania." He gestured to a miniature version of the Armored Herbivore.
"Not only Tank." Rhysa smiled. "Reese, Diego, Alicia, and Dora, meet Tracker the Tyrannotitan." As Rhysa gestured a miniature version of the Theropod stood beside Dread.
Reese nodded. "I also believe you have the Stone as well?"
"Yeah." Rex said as he showed his Dino Holder, now having an Earth and Wind Symbol. "Why? Did something happen?"
Reese again nodded. "You guys might want to see what just happened just now." She gestured for them to follow her to a door that wasn't there before. She placed a finger on a Scanner and it scanned her fingerprint before the door opened up and let her and the others in. What they saw was amazing.
It was a large control room mixed with a gym. There was a panel that had many slots in them that were large enough to place the Cards inside. And there was also a large window. The team looked out the window and were surprised to see a huge simulated room that looked just like the earth during the Dinosaur days. It had grassy plains, rivers, forests, beaches, a huge lake with a waterfall, and enough space for what looked like a whole Herd of Dinosaurs.
"What is this?" Max asked as he looked out the window to the large room. Wanting to investigate further he called back Chomp and Terry and placed their Cards in two of the slots. Immediately, they both materialized full-sized in the large room and began to look around. Rhysa, Rex and Zoe then did the same thing with their Dinosaurs.
Soon, all ten materialized in the room and began to explore. Chomp and Tank began grazing on the ferns, Ace and Terry began chasing each other around the trees, Paris took a swim in the river, Spiny began rolling around in the dirt, Dread started eating from a tree, Stiggy and Stigga rammed againsts some boulders, and Tracker scratched his back on the bark of an oak tree. "After sleeping in those beds, dirt doesn't have the same comfort to it." Spiny told himself. "Tell me about it! It's so great to have a tree to eat from." Dread smiled.
"Where did this place come from, Reese?" Max asked again.
"I don't know. It formed just about half an hour ago."
"That was when I got the Earth Stone!" Rex realized.
"It's possible they made this place after all seven Stones were finally touched." Diego guessed.
"You guys think the Stones made this place for the other Dinosaurs we save to live?" Max asked the others.
"That seems most likely." Reese theorized as she adjusted her glasses. "It's possible that the Stones coming together caused this place to be formed as a haven for the Dinosaurs." Alicia and Dora agreed with Reese's statement.
"Thank goodness! I don't know what Mom would say if we keep bringing home stray Dinosaurs!" Max sighed in relief before he and the others began laughing.
Meanwhile, at Zeta Point, Cursula, Slander, and Tred were currently lying on the floor with large bumps on their heads from a large hammer after telling Dr.N the D-Team had both the Water and Earth Stones. "If you don't get those stones back I'll give you idiots to Gigas. Understood!" The doctor said sternly.
"Yes, sir." All three droned in pain.
Meanwhile Louisa told Dr. Wu about the defeat. "I figured those brats would succeed in getting those stones." He said. "But I've finally done it, Louisa. My Hybro Booster is now complete!" He handed a purplish-black booster to Louisa. "Thanks Dad. Next battle I'll have the advantage!" Louisa knew the war had only just begun.
