In Italy, there was currently a heavy rainstorm going on. The rain fell so hard that a piece of dirt opened up to reveal a capsule. The capsule rolled down a hill before it collided with the poles at the end and opened up, the Booster and card inside landing on the street.
The Booster was a multi-coloured one like Rhysa's and the card was different from most because it had the same outline that Stiggy, Stigga, Dread, Tracker, Brontina, Giganto and Brontikens' Cards had. Eventually, the rain ceased and the sun began to shine. The bright light reflected off the windows of a nearby house and landed on the card, and that activated it.
The Dinosaur was a pure Bipedal Herbivore, with a light brown-coloured body with short, black stripes going along the back and five claw-like fingers on each hand. The main feature of this one, which separated it from the same group as Paris and Maia and actually made it more closer related to Chomp, Crown and Elsa, aside from the lack of a duckbill, was its head. It had a very thick spot of bone shaped like a dome that was surrounded by tiny horns just like Stiggy and Stigga. There were also some, even smaller, tiny horns just above the mouth and under the dome. Not only that, its head was glowing. This Dinosaur was a Pachycephalosaurus.
The first thing it did once released was charge forward and attack the first thing its boney head collided with, which was the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It continued on smashing into the tower several times until the tower went from a leaning tower to a straightened tower. Once it couldn't make the tower budge anymore, the Pachycephalosaurus roared and went to find a new victim.
(Intro Theme)
With the D-Team, they were currently waiting in a long line for a special pudding. Well, Rex and Zoe were at least. "I get that this pudding is out for a limited time only, but this line is ridiculous." Zoe told Rex as they stood in line.
Rex nodded in agreement. "Hey, where the heck did Max go?" He asked when he noticed the brunette wasn't standing with them, again.
"Yeah! This whole thing was his idea in the first place." Zoe said angrily as he looked around for him. She managed to locate him when she heard him laughing over some comics he was reading. "Hey, Max! Get over here!"
Max looked up from the book he was reading and saw Zoe and Rex glaring at him, mostly Zoe. "Uhh...Sorry!" He said with a smile as he put the book down and ran back to them. "I got bored waiting."
"Well if you want any pudding, you'll have to wait in line the same as the rest of us!" Zoe reminded him in a strict tone.
"Ma'am! Yes, ma'am!" Max responded as he stood at attention like he was in the military. "I'll stay here and wait as ordered, general!"
And immediately afterwards, he started goofing off. "That doesn't mean... we can't have... fun!" He said as he popped into several spots in the line before Zoe reeled him in by the ear. "Wah!"
"Would you stand still and stay in one place!?" Zoe hissed. Max laughed sheepishly before he heard a woman say "Dinosaur."
Max stopped laughing and immediately started looking for the source. "Did you guys hear that?"
"Hear what?" Zoe asked.
"I could have sworn I heard somebody say the word Dinosaur."
While Rex was wondering what exactly he heard, Zoe wasn't convinced. "Nice try, Max." She told him as he ran off. "Don't think I'm holding your place in line, and you can forget about having any pudding!" She sighed to herself. "Honestly, that guy-"
"Is telling the truth."
Zoe looked at Rex. "And how do you know that?"
Rex responded by showing her his Dino Holder. "The Dino Holder's picking up something."
"Look there's Rhysa!" Zoe said, seeing the blonde running up to them.
"Oh thank goodness you're here." Rhysa panted. "We've got a Dinosaur on the loose and it's in Italy!"
Realising there was an actual Dinosaur running around, the trio left the line to look for Max. They found him standing in front of a window with TVs, watching the news. "And now for international news." The Anchorwoman from before said. "An incredible report from Italy claims that the Leaning Tower of Pisa was mysteriously straightened by a Dinosaur!" The screen then changed to show the Pachycephalosaurus.
"A Pachycephalosaurus?" Max asked aloud.
DK
At Zeta Point, the Hybro Gang were currently watching the same news report. "Our latest report says that the Dinosaur is heading straight for Rome." The woman said over the television.
Dr.N was only half listening as his eyes were glued to the image on screen. "This is amazing! It's the moment I've been waiting for!" He beamed.
"I don't see what the big deal is." Cursula muttered from behind him. "So we finally got cable TV. It's not like we didn't already have the internet."
"So you think we have the cooking channel?" Tred asked.
"Or maybe the comedy channel." Louisa groaned, as she was still in bandages. "Ow!"
"I'm talking about the Dinosaur, you dimwits." Dr.N told them. "It's a secret one of my own creation, just like Brontikens." He said smugly.
"Another one?" Louisa asked. "Just like Rhysa's Dinosaurs are Secret ones, which means Dr.N didn't raise hers."
"A Secret Dinosaur?" The H-Team said in unison. What the heck did that mean?
"That Pachycephalosaurus is a bold invention of mine which took years of experiments to develop, and would allow me to create a new breed of super, powerful Dinosaurs!" Dr.N declared before telling the backstory.
Dr.N snuggled the egg close to his body as he waited for it to hatch.
"I knew the moment I found that Pachycephalosaurus Egg how special it was. I even hatched it myself."
The egg hatched to reveal a baby Pachycephalosaurus that looked a lot like it was in chibi-form for some reason.
"Ah, the joy of watching its birth and gazing into those eyes, so innocent and trusting."
Dr.N fawned as he gave the baby a hug, before it started to hit his chin with its dome head.
"I fused together its Card with a Move Card, and fused that power onto its super-strong head."
The baby Pachycephalosaurus was put on a test table as Dr.N turned on some intense lights to power the Dinosaur. The power proved to be so great that the machine exploded. Dr.N coughed as checked to see what he managed to accomplish.
"The fusion was a success. And from its head, blinding light shined out in all the colours of the rainbow." Dr.N said as he finished the backstory.
"That's so sweet." Slander sobbed. "He must think you're his daddy, Dr.N!"
"Yeah, I can almost see the family resemblance." Tred commented, making Cursula chuckle at the remark.
"I am the daddy of that Dinosaur. And right now he's like a runaway teenager!" Dr.N told them. "We've got to get him back, or all my hard work will have been for nothing other than giving those brats a bigger advantage!"
"You can count on us!" The Hybro Gang saluted.
"Don't be ridiculous. I can't count on you to stand still for five minutes. That's why I'm going with you."
"I'm sorry?" Cursula asked. "You're going where?"
"Rome!" The doctor answered. "I'm going with you to Rome!"
"Oh what joy." Louisa moaned. "I'm the only one who can handle this mission."
DK
At the D-Lab, Reese, Spike, Rhysa's Cousins and the Dinosaurs were watching the news as it continued showing the Pachycephalosaurus. "Ooh, it's a Pachycephalosaurus." Spike said with interest.
"You're right Dr. Taylor." Diego said. "Another Pachycephalosaurid."
"Pachycephalosaurus had a hard skull." Alicia said.
"As hard as a bowling ball." Dora added.
"There's something not quite right about it." Reese said as she looked at the Dinosaur more closely.
"What'd you mean?" Chomp asked.
"Look at its head." Reese told them as she zoomed in on the target.
The others squinted as they tried to get a better look. "I don't see what's wrong with the head. Isn't it supposed to be like that, hence their reputation?" Spiny asked. "Wait, am I not making sense here?"
"No you are making sense, Spiny." Stiggy said.
"No, there's some kind of light beaming off it." Ace corrected. "And judging by the way it's coming off, I'm assuming it's not from the sun."
"But then how is it glowing?" Spike asked.
"I don't know." Ace replied.
"Well we'd better get going!" Giganto said, eagerly. "My first rescue mission after being rescued from the Hybro Gang."
At that moment, Max and his friends entered the room. "Where's the Pachycephalosaurus now?" He asked Reese.
"Rhysa perfect timing!" Alicia said. "The Pachycephalosaurus' moving fast!"
"It's just entered Rome." Reese told them as the Dinosaurs went to join their partners.
"Be careful guys." Dora said. "It looks pretty strong."
"Awesome, let's go!" Max said as he joined up with Chomp and Terry.
Spike noticed that something was missing. "Hey, where's my pudding?"
"Sorry Dr. Taylor but the mission comes first." Rhysa said.
"We'll have to go get your pudding later, Dad." Max told him as they teleported away.
"But it won't be available for much longer." Spike muttered as he scooted closer to the door. "But work's more important. I'll just have to wait for the next time they have a special." He said before bolting out the door. "Okay bye!"
"It's not like I was going to stop you." Reese muttered, slightly disappointed she wouldn't get any pudding.
"Or we were." Rhysa's Cousins muttered. "Well let's see what data Rhysa got from that creepy Wu guy."
DK
"Slander, can't this boat go any faster?" Dr.N whined as the speedboat they were using zipped through the water. Why they would use this and have to cross either through whatever seaways they could find or under continents where air travel would make it much more effective to get to Italy from the South Pacific, especially if they're in a hurry to get there before the D-Team, a next to impossible feet already, will be one of those mysteries impossible to solve. "My Pachycephalosaurus is waiting for me. Crank this baby up!"
"You got it! I'll just push the super-turbo-boost button here, which is totally safe for use!" Slander replied before pressing said button.
"NO!" Louisa yelled. "We'll be out of control!" But it was too late.
Once he did, the boat sped through the water like a skipping stone. "Yahh!" Everyone held on like they were riding a Bull in a rodeo. "Slow this dinghy down!" Dr.N ordered Slander.
Slander and Tred pulled the levels hard until the boat came to a steady pace. They both took a large breath of relief. "I didn't see that coming." Slander told them.
"What about that?!" Cursula shouted as she pointed forward. They both looked to see a Whale right in their path. They all screamed as the boat collided head-on with the large Mammal.
Thankfully for them, all that happened was everyone had a large bump on their heads, including the Whale who swam off angrily, and the speedboat was destroyed, forcing the Hybro Gang to have to push themselves to Rome with what was left. "How much longer?" Slander asked.
"Stow it and kick!" Dr.N grumpily told him from atop a piece of metal.
"I really hate these guys." Louisa muttered. "Ouch! Oh stupid Whale!"
DK
Meanwhile, the D-Team had just arrived in Rome. When they did, they were greeted by a stampede of frightened people, thankfully not getting run over like the Hybro Gang would have. "Hey, there it is!" Rex pointed forward and, sure enough, the Pachycephalosaurus ran by, only briefly stopping and allowing the kids to see the bright light shine off its head. "I wonder what that bright light was on its head?"
"Yeah, it's weird." Chomp added. "But what matters is that we catch up to it."
"Stiggy and I can talk to it to calm it down." Stigga said. "But we need to get closer."
Max looked around and saw some bicycles lying around. "Hey, let's use these!" He said as he got onto one.
"Don't you need helmets?" Paris asked.
"They're at home!" Max replied, making her even more confused.
DK
With the Hybro Gang, they had arrived as well and were looking at where the Dinosaur was heading. "We've missed him!" Dr.N said in anger as he saw nothing but footprints and destroyed trees and flowers. "But just look at all the destruction he's caused." He added with a smile. "I'm so proud of my little Pachycephalosaurus! He's become such a fierce Dinosaur. What a chip off the old block!"
Cursula was less interested in finding the Dinosaur, and more on something else. "Something's not right here." She told Tred.
"What?"
"I was told Italian men loved garlic, so I ate a bunch and literally bathed in it, yet all I seem to be attracting is weird looks." She said in frustration.
"Maybe it might attract a breath mint." Tred replied as he took a sniff and saw why she might have no crowd.
Suddenly another stampede of people was coming their way. "Obviously, I spoke too soon!" Cursula beamed. "My new scent is driving men out of their senses!"
"And yours as well." Tred muttered, both from knowing what was about to happen and that it wasn't because of Cursula, before they were run over by the crowd.
"OH YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" Louisa groaned.
Dr.N, who somehow avoided the crowd, looked to see what caused the commotion. "Ah! There he is! Oh, my dear long-lost Pachycephalosaurus!"
The Dinosaur perked once she heard the voice. "Huh?" The Hybro Gang said as they got back up, covered in footprints. Turning around, the Pachycephalosaur's fears were confirmed to be true. Using her literal head, she blinded them with her light before making a break for it. "Agh, my eyes!" Cursula said as she covered them.
"It's like looking right into the sun!" Slander commented while doing the same, not even his sunglasses were helping.
"I can't see a thing!" Louisa cried.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. You'd need special sunglasses to do this." Dr.N told them once the light died down, before pulling out a pair from his lab coat.
"That was a very important point. I sure hope you remembered to bring enough for everyone." Tred replied sarcastically, already knowing the answer.
"Am I supposed to feed and clothe you, too?!" Dr.N angrily asked as he got in his face.
"Anyway." Cursula stepped in. "Where'd the Dinosaur go!"
"Are you blind? He's right-" Dr.N stopped when he noticed the Pachycephalosaurus was gone. "Oh, no! Where did he go!? After him!" He ordered his minions as they carried him.
"At least we don't have the D-Team to worry about for a change." Louisa thought to herself.
DK
Elsewhere, the D-Team was not having much better luck. "Don't tell me we lost it already." Max said as they put their bikes to a halt. "Wait, is it a guy or a girl?"
"I couldn't get enough of a look at it both here and on TV to tell." Terry told him, the other Dinosaurs nodding in confirmation.
"Oh, there it is!" Rex suddenly announced as he pointed to a moving glow in an ancient looking hallway of columns.
"Wow, look at it!" Chomp said in awe. "That thing is fast!"
"If we need speed, leave it to me." Ace said before Rex prepared him for battle.
"DINO SLASH! CARNOTAURUS, BLOW THEM AWAY!"
As the battle began the Hybro Gang noticed. "Ooh."
"There's a battle going on somewhere." Tred realised.
"And that probably means those brats have found my Dinosaur." Dr.N hypothesised as he took off his sunglasses for a better look. "Head to the Battlefield!" He ordered them before being carried away again.
"Me and my stupid thoughts!" Louisa said, in her mind.
With the fight, the Pachycephalosaurus continued running down the hall with Ace hot on her tail. Getting fed up with the attacker, the Pachycephalosaurus used her speed to disappear, shocking Ace as she vanished almost like she teleported. "Where are you?" He asked himself as he looked around frantically. "Where did you go?"
The D-Team watched the fight and were also surprised at the speed. They wondered where she went, and were answered pretty quickly. "Behind you!" Paris warned.
"Ace, watch out!" Rex yelled at him.
"It's about to strike!" Tracker said.
Ace turned around and was met by the Pachycephalosaurus slamming her head into his, knocking him down. "No! Ace!" Rex cried out.
The Pachycephalosaurus then hit one of the support columns, causing a literal domino effect to take place and one kept on knocking down the other in front and repeat. Ace looked up to see the columns about to fall on him, but couldn't get back up and dodge in time, only closed his eyes and wait for the pain. "Come back!" Rex said as he recalled Ace just in time to avoid the pillars crushing him.
"Ace are you okay?" Dread asked.
As Ace reappeared in chibi-form, he began panting heavily, still in shock from everything that just happened. "She's not just fast, she's also super powerful." He warned them.
"So we know that it is actually a she." Giganto said. "I don't think you wanna put Stiggy and Stigga out there yet Rhysa."
"So, now what?" Spiny asked. His answer came in the form of the sun appearing and shining its light onto the Pachycephalosaurus. The Herbivore roared before going after it.
"That was weird." Brontina said, in curiosity.
"Let's go!" Max said as they got on their bikes and resumed the chase.
DK
"Hey, the Battlefield's disappeared." Tred told the others as he looked up at the sky.
"I guess those kids must have captured your Dinosaur already." Cursula the doctor.
Obviously, Dr.N took offence to this. "Are you saying that my own creation of a Dinosaur could be beaten by a bunch of snot-nosed little kids?!" He screamed into her face. "He and I are so closely connected, that I can still feel his presence!" He continued yelling, not noticing the shadow behind him.
"Hey, I do too." Tred said. "I can practically feel him breathing down my neck."
"Um guys…" Louisa said, nervously.
Slander looked behind them and noticed the Pachycephalosaurus looking down at them. "Aah! That's because he is!" Slander screamed before he and the other two dropped the doctor and ran for safety.
Dr.N looked up to see the face of his beloved Dinosaur. "There you are, my magnificent child. Look how big and strong you've grown. I remember when you were just an egg." He said to the Pachycephalosaurus as he got back up. "Come back home where you belong and you will be the masterpiece of my Dinosaur Kingdom." The Pachycephalosaurus glared at the doctor when she heard that. She knows this trick. "Don't be shy. Give me a hug." The doctor said as he opened his arms. The Pachycephalosaurus roared in anger at this display.
"He doesn't seem so happy to see his dad." Cursula said from behind a lamppost.
"Teenagers can be so mean and unappreciative to their parents." Slander cried.
"I think he's just being silly." Louisa said.
"He could try buying it a video game." Tred suggested.
"Look, that crazy doctor!" They all turned to see the D-Team arrive, hop off their bikes, and ran over to them.
"So, we meet again." Dr.N addressed the group. "But this time you won't be getting away, because my Pachycephalosaurus is going to tear you apart!"
"That's what you think!" Terry retorted. "You should have taken our warning and stayed on your dumb island!"
"Yeah, and you should keep the old lady with you!" Zoe added.
"I am not an old lady!" Cursula rebutted, leaping out from her hiding spot.
"Well, well Louisa." Rhysa said in amusement. "I didn't know Halloween had come early, or I would've dressed up for the occasion."
"Oh shut up!" Louisa moaned. "Ah! I'm only in these things because of you!"
"Never mind her! I'll make you an offer you can't refuse!" Dr.N told them, shifting back on topic. "You give me back all the cards you stole, and maybe I won't have my Super Dinosaur stomp you into jelly!" He threatened.
"What'd you mean Super Dinosaur?" Max asked.
"What'd you do to that Pachycephalosaurus?" Chomp asked as he growled.
"I merely improved his design."
"Her." Spiny interrupted.
"Excuse me?" Dr.N asked, annoyed at being interrupted from his bragging.
"It's a girl. We just established that." He told the doctor.
"For once the idiot's right." Tank said. "Your 'boy' really is a girl."
Dr.N got ticked at this remark. "So, you think you know my own Dinosaur better than me? Well, now is the perfect time to test the power of my ultimate creation by destroying you kids and taking you Dinosaurs by force." Everyone gasped before the doctor ordered. "Attack!"
Yet, instead of doing as she was told, the Pachycephalosaurus went the opposite direction Dr.N was pointing, shocking and confusing everyone. "Huh? Hey, you're going the wrong way!" Dr.N shouted as he chased her. The Pachycephalosaurus slammed her head into a store's glass window that was reflecting sunlight, shattering it on impact.
"That Dinosaur looks like she's confused, or lost or something." Max told the others.
"Gee, that reminds me of you, Max." Zoe muttered, making the brunette tense up at the reality of the comparison.
"And she follows instructions just about as well as you do, too." Rex added.
"OK." Max replied, clearly embarrassed at their comments. Chomp and Terry's snickering wasn't helping at all.
"Wait, the glass windows were reflecting her light!" Rhysa realised. "Could she be trying to follow her own light?"
Back with the Hybro Gang, Dr.N yelled. "Why won't you listen to me?! I am your creator!"
"And don't think for one second that you're too big for the doctor to put over his knee!" Cursula added.
"Armatus and I will take care of this!" Tred declared as he pulled out the card and struck a pose. "It's showtime!"
Dr.N didn't take kindly to this and kicked Tred to the ground. "No one attacks my super Dinosaur baby unless I order them to!"
"Wow, that's a first." Louisa sweatdropped.
What the doctor didn't realise was that by kicking Tred he made him drop the card. "Agh, my card!" Tred exclaimed as he saw it float away.
"I'll save you, Armatus!" Slander called out as he and Tred ran after it.
Seeing his minions weren't going to be helping, Dr.N decided to execute plan B. "Raa!" Pulling out the Grappling Claw, he latched onto the horns on the back of Pachycephalosaur's Head and reeled himself onto her back. When she felt him on her head, the Pachycephalosaurus shook her head to get the old geezer off of it.
"He's riding her like it's a rodeo!" Zoe exclaimed.
"Now that's stupid." Tank said. "Even Spiny wouldn't do that."
"Challenge accepted." Spiny said before running to grab onto the Pachycephalosaurus as well, only to be stopped by Zoe grabbing him.
"Why are you acting this way? Don't you know I'd do anything for you? Have you forgotten about me? Now that you're back, I'll never let you go!" Dr.N said as the Pachycephalosaurus ran away with him still holding on.
"Doctor!" Cursula sighed in frustration as he was carried away. Today was just not going well for her.
"Out of my way, old lady!" Zoe said as she rode her bike past her, nearly crushing her feet.
"How dare you!"
"Watch it, old lady!" Tank said when their bike went past, also nearly crushing her feet.
"Urr!" The insults were making it worse.
"Move! Old lady!" Max said as he approached her.
"I'll fix you, little brat!" Cursula said before she jumped onto the bike and sat in the back seat, holding onto Max to make sure he didn't try anything.
"Let go! Get off!" Max struggled.
"Be quiet and keep pedalling!" Cursula said as she held her ground, even when Chomp and Terry tried to push her off.
"You weigh a ton! Get off!"
"Forget it!"
"Hey wait for me!" Louisa cried, but then yelped in pain. "AH! Stupid injuries." Then she noticed that Rhysa was pedalling towards her. "Oh crap balls." Then Rhysa ran her bike right over her.
"Smell you later Mommy Louisa!" Rhysa mocked. "Oh and next time use the Zebra Crossing!"
"That's it!" Louisa yelled. "Oy you!" Seeing some kid with a bike. "Give me your bike or else!"
"Okay! Just don't hurt me!" The kid begged getting off her bike and Louisa climbed on it and pedaled after the rest.
DK
Meanwhile, Slander and Tred continued on chasing Armatus' card until it landed in the statue of a face. "Oh, no! It went into the slot!" Tred exclaimed in horror.
"That's the Mouth of Truth." Slander explained, recognising the statue. "They say if you're hiding something, or lying, the mouth will bite off your hand."
"Yeah, but that's just a silly, old superstition isn't it?" Tred asked.
"Well, we can't leave that card in there, or Dr.N will bite off our hands." Slander reminded him. "Guess we're about to find out." Both men swallowed before saying together. "Ready, go!" And sticking their hands in.
The two men tried to feel for the card, but had no such luck in doing so. Realising that they messed up by both going in, they sighed before pulling their hands out. Or at least trying to. "Aah!" They both exclaimed as it looked like the legend was real. "Now my hand won't come out! You're hiding something from me, aren't you, Tred!" Slander accused the short man.
"I am not, so you must be lying about something!" Tred accused him.
"Tell me what you're hiding!" Slander ordered as they two began to fight.
"Tell the truth, or we'll be stuck here." Tred reminded him. The two continued fighting until they got into positions that made them even more stuck.
DK
"Can't you pedal any faster?!" Cursula barked. "Pick it up! Move it!"
"I'm trying!" Max told her as he struggled to keep the bike up.
"Maybe if you lost weight-" Terry was interrupted by Cursula grabbing onto his mouth and shaking him like a rag doll.
"Listen here! I'm perfect the way I am!" Cursula's shift in weight was enough to cause Max to lose balance and make the bike topple over.
"You're perfect alright. Perfectly evil." Max told her as he sat up, rubbing his head.
"I'm a villain! That comes with the territory!" Cursula retorted.
"Does old come with it too?" Max asked, making her even more pissed.
"Grrrrr! Now look who's being evil!"
Rhysa, Zoe and Rex watched the scene before turning their attention back to the Pachycephalosaurus and the doctor.
"Remember the good times we had together? And all of the good times to come!" Dr.N shouted at the Dinosaur.
"Take our advice!" Stiggy and Stigga shouted. "Get off her now, or she'll catapult you off!"
"You should jump off before she throws you off!" Paris warned him.
"Stop calling my baby boy a girl! And besides, deep down, he knows he belongs to me and there's no way he'll ever throw me off!" Dr.N yelled before being thrown off. "Wahaha!" He screamed before landing face first on the sidewalk.
"Clearly you don't know your Dinosaur at all." Spiny told him.
"Or better, she doesn't like you anymore." Tracker said.
"Uh, Dr.N?" Cursula asked as she and Louisa ran to his side.
"Where did I go wrong? He hates me!" The doctor sobbed.
"Don't take it personally." She assured him, placing a hand on his back for comfort. "I'm sure this is just his rebellious stage."
"Maybe she'd like you if you'd stop calling her a boy." Louisa said in her mind.
A plane soared overhead and shined a light in the Pachycephalosaur's direction. She looked up and went after it. "Did you see that?" Rex asked the others. "I think maybe she's attracted to things that shine or reflect light." He hypothesised. "Let's go!" He said as he rode off to follow her.
"Right behind you!" Rhysa said, following in pursuit.
Zoe was about to join them, but Cursula had other plans. "Not so fast!" She told her as she dragged her and her Dinos off the bike.
"Hey, what's the big idea?!" Zoe asked as she got back up.
"Dr.N, climb aboard this bicycle I just found." The yellowette said innocently.
"Excellent!" The doctor said as he leapt onto the back seat and they rode off.
"You thief!" Zoe yelled as they rode off.
"Climb on, Zoe." Max volunteered, as he allowed her onto the back seat.
"Thank you, Max." Zoe replied as she and her team climbed on and they rode off.
DK
They continued chasing the Pachycephalosaurus until she ran into the Roman Coliseum. "Ooh! The Coliseum!" Dr.N marvelled at his surroundings as Cursula stopped the bike, Louisa joined them and they looked around. "What a perfect place to begin my Dinosaur Kingdom."
"Now let's get the Pachy and go home fast!" Louisa said, looking around. "Where is he?"
Cursula heard a roar and turned to see the Pachycephalosaurus on the same level as them. "There he is." She pointed out and Dr.N looked in her direction. Sure enough, there the Pachycephalosaurus was, looking for the aeroplane in the sky.
"Son, I don't know why you keep running away, but I have to put a stop to it!" Dr.N told her as he pulled out a Hybro Scanner and pressed a button. "Ya!"
A Hybro Ball suddenly appeared and began shocking the Pachycephalosaurus, making her roar in pain. "Doing this hurts me more than it hurts you!" Dr.N told her. "No, wait. Come to think of it, it's really the other way around!"
The D-Team arrived and saw what the doctor was doing to the Dinosaur. "Hey! Knock it off!" Max told him. "You're hurting her!"
"Stop it!" Rhysa yelled. "You're hurting her really badly! So let her go!"
"The only thing that matters is that my Hybro Ball will make HIM do as I tell HIM!" Dr.N explained, emphasising what he believed her gender was and making the D-Team gasp in horror. They remember what those balls can do. "Let's go! Attack those brats!" He ordered.
"SISTER!" Stiggy and Stigga cried. "BREAK FREE!"
But before the process could be completed, the Pachycephalosaur's head accidentally knocked the ball into the wall and destroyed it. "Oops. That didn't go well." Dr.N said quietly as the Pachycephalosaurus turned around and glared at them. "Cursula, talk some sense into him!" He ordered his henchman as he hid behind her.
"Uh, uh, how can you act this way after all that Dr.N has done for you! Show him a little gratitude!" She stuttered. But this only made the Pachycephalosaurus roar in anger.
"I guess we'll just understand each other, you and I." Dr.N realised. "I didn't want to have to end it this way, but you've given me no choice but to have to teach you a lesson!"
Cursula knew what this meant and grabbed her Scanner and two cards. "Here it goes!"
"COME ON OUT, TRICERATOPS AND TYRANNOSAURUS!"
"I hope you guys have recovered enough." Louisa said, grabbing her Scanner and two Cards.
"GO GET HIM, INDOMINUS REX AND STEGOCERATOPS!"
After they appeared, Dr.N pulled out his Scanner and the last card they had on them.
"APATOSAURUS! DESTROY THEM ALL!"
After that they got out their armour.
"SPECTRAL ARMOUR!/HYBRO BOOSTER! HYBRO TECTOR ON!"
Soon Brontikens appeared and they all growled at their opponent. "Attack him!" Dr.N orders before they all charged forward, cornering the Pachycephalosaurus.
"He's going down!" Horn Plate roared. "He can't fight the five of us!"
But Horn Plate was very wrong, as the Pachycephalosaurus started glowing to but rainbow as in dimension of rainbow a rainbow circle appeared around the Pachycephalosaurus as a bright rainbow circle appeared in the centre of her forehead, then rainbow colours started shooting out of her sides as one circle appeared on either side of her, then the circle on her forehead shone brightly, as suddenly shoulder blade rainbow coloured armour appeared on her shoulders on each side, as more armour appeared on her sides working its way down from her front to her tail, finally armour appeared on her forehead like a helmet, the Pachycephalosaurus roared at the sky as she swung her head around and posed as rainbow colours flashed all around the dimension.
"So he's got an Element Booster too!" White Slash gasped. "No matter! He's still going down!"
"He's using five Dinosaurs to crush his own Pachycephalosaurus!" Zoe gasped.
"That's really low!" Rhysa said.
"We've got to help her out, guys!" Chomp encouraged
"Let's make this an all-out battle!" Rex said before they all got ready.
"DINO SLASH! TRICERATOPS, ROAR! FLAME UP, TYRANNOSAURUS!"
"DINO SLASH! CARNOTAURUS, BLOW THEM AWAY! SHAKE 'EM UP, SAICHANIA!"
"DINO SLASH! SPRING UP, PARASAUROLOPHUS! GUSH OUT, SPINOSAURUS!"
"DINO SLASH! STYGIMOLOCHS SHINE YOUR LIGHT! TYRANNOTITAN AND GIGANTOSAURUS IT'S BRAWLING TIME! DREADNOUGHTUS AND BRACHIOSAURUS SLAM THEM FLAT!"
"ELEMENT BOOSTERS! DINO TECTORS ON!"
"OK!" Max said once they all were summoned and armoured up. "Go and save that Pachycephalosaurus, you guys!"
Everyone nodded and charged forward, save Paris in case they needed to be healed or she had to summon support. Brontikens felt the vibrations and heard the sound of Dinosaurs approaching and looked to see that his senses were right. "Looks like we have company." He told his colleagues before smacking Chomp and Terry away with his tail. Gigas quickly dodged a snap from Ace and a tail swing from Tank, while Maximus' tail was grabbed by Spiny. White Slash and Giganto met in a jaw clash, as Dread grabbed Horn Plate's tail, Tracker and Brontina then helped by repeating the actions of their team mates. As the Dinosaurs battled it out, the Pachycephalosaurus took this opportunity to escape and continue her quest. She looked up and thought she saw the plane again, but in reality it was the Sun. Stiggy and Stigga saw her heading up to the Sun and went after her.

"Well?" Slander glared at Tred.
"I guess both of us don't need to hold onto the card." He told him, glaring back.
"Right. So why don't you hold onto it and I'll pull my hand out. Then once I'm free, I'll find someone to come back and help you."
"If that's a lie, your hand's gonna get bitten off ya know." Tred reminded him. Slander immediately started to pale, which Tred noticed. "Why are you so quiet all of a sudden? You were lying about going for help, weren't you?" He accused him. "You were gonna run off and just leave me stuck here!"
Slander slumped to the ground in shame. "It's true." He confessed. Thankfully, he still felt his hand.
"Now what?" Tred asked as he did the same. We'll check back on these two later.

Back with the fight, Maximus had escaped Spiny's jaws and ran after the Pachycephalosaurus and Stygimolochs, only to collide head on with Tank. "Ow! Watch it, Thick Thighs!" She hissed as she shook her head to lessen the pain, Tank doing the same.
"Thick Thighs? You're one to talk." Tank said as she walked up to Maximus' flank and smacked it gently with her tail. "Someone apparently is disparate."
"Is that someone you?" Maximus asked as she repeated Tank's action. The two continued glaring at each other before clashing.
On the other side of the stadium, the Pachycephalosaurus started to run up the seats to the top, seeing if that might help her reach the light. "Come back here!" Gigas shouted as he started chasing her, with Spiny, Stiggy and Stigga following him.
Chomp tried to aid Spiny and the Stygimolochs, but was knocked away when Brontikens charged at him. "Hey, leave him alone!" Max shouted at the Sauropod and his summoner.
"This is what happens when someone defies my orders, even my own Dinosaur!" Dr.N responded. "Now, Spectral Destroy!"
Max gulped as Brontikens' Move Card was activated. As the Apatosaurus charged up his attack, he grabbed Chomp by the frill and tossed him into a wall. This took enough time for the attack to fully charge and fire. Chomp closed his eyes and waited for the inevitable. But while he did hear the blast, he did feel it. Opening his eyes, he saw Brontina, Tracker, Terry and Paris had all leapt in front of him and took the attack for him. He saw them all return to cards and their partners cry their names. "Tracker! Brontina!"
"Terry!"
"Paris!"
"They protected me." Chomp said quietly. "I won't let their sacrifice go in vain!" He thought with determination before roaring and rejoining the fight
Meanwhile, the Pachycephalosaurus had reached the top of the stadium but had nowhere to go. Turning around, she saw Gigas coming at her with jaws agape. "Ace! Go and save the Pachycephalosaurus!" Rex told him. Ace responded by running up the seats as fast as he could.
"Oh, please! I don't think so!" Cursula smirked as she pulled out a Move Card. "Gigas, Spectral Lancer!"
As crystals formed from the sides of Gigas, Ace arrived in time to protect the Pachycephalosaurus. But the Pachycephalosaurus saw this as an opportunity and used Ace as a leverage by leaping onto his back to escape. "Oh, no!" Ace said before he was picked up by the lancers and crushed into a wall before being defeated.
"Ace!" Rex exclaimed before going to pick up the card.
"You leave that nice Carnotaurus alone!" Spiny said before smacking Gigas in the face with his tail. Though, with it not being Tail Smash it wasn't as effective.
With the Pachycephalosaurus, she landed on the stands and saw that the light had disappeared behind the clouds. This got her even more agitated. Roaring in anger, she charged and attacked Spiny. She struck him in the gut with her head and knocked him onto his side before hitting him right in the privates. "Ooooooh!" Everyone winced as the Spinosaurus screamed in pain while the Pachycephalosaurus ran off.
"I'm in pain!" Spiny whimpered with a higher-pitched voice.
"Spiny are you alright?" Stiggy and Stigga asked.
"Ha, ha!" Gigas laughed at his misery, but soon found the tables turned as the Pachycephalosaurus did the same thing to him, minus the attacking of privates.
"Hey, pal? Did you forget you are supposed to be on our side?" Cursula asked her.
"What happened to her? She's more violent than ever!" Zoe said in shock.
"Ace told me and Rhysa about this. I think she's going through a blind rampage." Rex told them. "If we don't stop it, it could kill her!" Rex looked around for Tank. "Tank! We need you!"
Said Saichania was currently in a tussle with Maximus, both struggling to throw the other off themselves. "Why aren't you using those horns of yours?" She asked the Triceratops.
"I could say the same about your tail." Maximus replied. Seeing they were basically done fighting, Rex and Cursula sighed in defeat and recalled them both, knowing that if they let them back out they'd just go after each other again.
The Pachycephalosaurus continued on hitting Gigas in the stomach until he was defeated, Cursula running over to pick up his card. "Gigas!" She said in dismay as she did.
"Sister! Calm down!" Stiggy and Stigga called, bashing Cursula out of the way to reach the Pachycephalosaurus.
The Herbivore returned to the base of the coliseum, just as Brontikens and Chomp were about to face off again. The Pachycephalosaurus then leapt onto Chomp's back and began hitting him with her head, before leaping off when Brontikens charged into him again. "No! We're not your enemies!" Chomp told her.
"If you couldn't tell, she's in such a rage she thinks we're all her enemies." Brontikens explained.
"This is what happens to those who disobey Dr.N! Ha!" Dr.N mocked, not understanding the situation.
"Now let's see him defeat Rhysa's Dinos!" Louisa said.
Then White Slash went in for an attack on the Pachycephalosaurus. But she saw her coming and struck her in the gut. The Hybrid fell to the floor as Giganto charged up another one of his Super Moves. All of a sudden the clouds started to circle around him as water droplets from in the clouds spun around him like a whirlpool. Then he hit the droplets with a small amount of rainbow energy and sent them soaring at the Hybrid. "Have some Droplets of Light!" Giganto roared as the Hybrid was defeated.
The Pachycephalosaurus then struck Giganto from behind and the Gigantosaurus fell to the ground. But before the Pachycephalosaurus could do the same thing she did to Gigas, Stiggy and Stigga then rammed themselves against her hard domehead. Together the two Stygimolochs were able to make the bigger Pachycephalosaur back off.
"Sister! We're not your enemies!" Stiggy shouted. "We've come to save you!"
"We're not with that crazy Doctor!" Stigga added. "We're here to help you!"
The Pachycephalosaurus then decided enough was enough. She began gathering energy onto her head.
"Dr.N, what does that light mean?" Cursula asked.
"It's a Super Move!" The doctor exclaimed in delight. "Or something else." He thought to himself.
"You have no idea, do you?" Cursula deadpanned.
"Light! Too bright, too bright!" Horn Plate cried, closing her eyes. Dread then used this distraction to use Sauro Toss and defeated the Hybrid by throwing her into the Coliseum wall.
"She's gonna use Laser Ray Attack!" Dread cried. "Rhysa, Stiggy and Stigga need Rainbow Blast now!"
"Way ahead of you Dread!" Rhysa said activating the Move Card. "Stiggy! Stigga! Rainbow Blast attack!"
Stiggy and Stigga then gathered the energy like the Pachycephalosaurus was minus the blinding part.
As the Pachycephalosaurus continued gathering energy, the light was blinding her opponents, keeping them from retreating. "Okay, let's settle this thing once and for all!" Max declared.
"Why not?! I think that's an excellent idea! Spectral Destroy!" Dr.N responded.
Brontikens tried to use his attack again, but with the blinding light, he couldn't aim properly and missed by a long shot.
Max, on the other hand, leapt into the air before swiping his Move Card. "Lightning Strike!"
Electricity formed on the tips of Chomp's horns and formed a ball of electricity that he fired directly at the Pachycephalosaurus, who responded by simply ducking. "Uh, oh." Max and Chomp said simultaneously before Chomp added. "That's a first." Referring to the opponent dodging the Move Card.
Eventually, the Pachycephalosaurus had enough energy and fired her attack. The attack was a large laser coming from her head. Stiggy and Stigga fired their Rainbow Blast and the two attacks collided in the middle of the Coliseum. The attack was so powerful it lifted Chomp, Giganto, Dread and even Brontikens off the ground, causing both of them to be carded and ending the battle. Giganto and Dread roared in pain as they were lifted off the floor and landed on their sides, they tried to get up but they fell on their stomachs and were defeated. Stiggy and Stigga were drained of energy but they managed to hang on.
Once the blinding light died down, Dr.N remembered what the attack was. "Oh, that's right! He can use Laser Ray Attack!"
"Aren't you the one who created him?" Cursula asked, both confused and scared that he forgot what attacks he gave that thing.
"Chomp, are you okay?" Max asked as he picked up the card.
"Stiggy, Stigga!" Rhysa called, running to her other two partners after picking up Giganto and Dread's Cards. "Are you two alright?"
"Ah, we got Brontikens' Card back!" Cursula beamed as it landed in her hands.
It was then that the Pachycephalosaurus started slowly walking towards Dr.N. "Will you look at this? My baby has realised his error and he's returning to me!" Dr.N said as he started to get teary-eyed and having flashbacks of their times together.
"That's it, little fella. Come to papa!" Dr.N cooed to the baby before she accepted his embrace, and bashed him on the chin.
"Hahaha! That's it! You remember who your father is at last!" Dr.N cried. "Good boy!" He hugged the Pachycephalosaurus, and it was at this moment Dr.N knew he fucked up. The Pachycephalosaurus tossed him into the air so high he disappeared in the clouds. "Whaa!"
"That didn't go well." Louisa said.
"It looks like even his own Dinosaur doesn't even like him." Max said as they just blankly watched what happened.
"Serves him right for calling her a boy!" Rhysa said.
"Why do we always hurl the ones we love?" Cursula sobbed, pulling out a handkerchief.
Seeing all the interruptions were taken care of, the Pachycephalosaurus was finally able to continue her mission. "Now where's she running off to?" Zoe asked.
"I think she's trying to get all the way to the sun!" Max said in an alarmed tone. "Someone stop her!"
"Stiggy! Stigga! Can you try and stop her?" Rhysa asked, as the Stygimolochs struggled to get back on their feet.
It was too late as the Pachycephalosaurus jumped off the top of the stadium and began charging another Laser Ray. She fired directly at the sun before suddenly stopping and falling from the sky. Everyone gasped as she returned to her card. "That jump used up all of her power." Rex realised.
Once the card landed on the ground, the race was on. "Get the card!" Max told his friends as they ran to where the card landed with Cursula and Louisa doing the exact same.
"Oh, no you don't!" Cursula told them. "Keep your hands off that card! Instead, why don't you take a little trip!?" She said before tossing marbles she conveniently had in their direction.
"Whaa!" The quartet yelped as they fell onto the ground. "That was a dirty trick!" Max yelled at the older woman as she ran up the steps.
Cursula laughed as she stood triumphantly over the card. "It doesn't matter how you play the game, what matters is if you win or lose. And it looks like I won this one! Ha, ha, ha, ha!" She laughed again.
"Nice work!" Louisa said. "Now let's grab that card and take the bad Pachycephalosaurus home!"
But before she could lean down and pick it up, a large grey claw landed on top of the card. "I win!" Spiny cheered.
"What?! You were defeated!" Cursula exclaimed, surprised and furious by the sudden appearance of the Spinosaurus.
"Where'd you come from!" Louisa gasped.
"No, I was hit in the balls and whimpered in pain for the last however long this battle took." Spiny explained. "So, what's my prize?" He asked excitedly, wagging his tail like a Dog. "Oh wait I know, my prize is this Pachycephalosaurus Card!"
Louisa and Cursula growled and were about to rip that Carnivore's claw off with a chainsaw Cursula also conveniently had. But before she could, Dr.N conveniently came down from orbit and landed on top of them. "Wah! Ooof!"
"NO!" Louisa cried.
Spiny grabbed the card and walked over to the D-Team and handed the card to Max. "Thanks, Spiny." Max said before leaping into the air in celebration. "All right! The Dinosaur Card is all ours!"
"WE DID IT!" Stiggy and Stigga cheered. "THE PACHYCEPHALOSAURUS' COMING HOME WITH US!"
"Where's Tred and Slander when you need them?" Louisa moaned.

Back with Slander and Tred, they were still slumping on the floor while the battle happened. "Well, it looks like the battle's over." Tred told Slander, noticing the colours return to normal.
"If we don't get out of here, it'll be over for us." Slander replied. The two decided to try pulling their hands out again. "One! Two! Three!" Sure enough, it worked. "On goody, my hand's still attached to me!"
"Yay!" Slander and Tred grabbed each other's hands and danced in celebration, before realising something important was missing. "Gah! But where's the card?"
"It's still in the mouth." Slander realised before they both put their hands in again.
"I've got a hold of it." Tred told him.
It was then they realised they were in the same situation. "But now our hands are stuck in there again." Slander slumped.
Tred growled in anger at the taller man. "This is all because you lied to me the first time!" He accused him.
"But then I admitted I was lying, so the lie was actually the truth!"
"If you're lying about telling the truth about lying, pull your hand out!" They probably won't be going anywhere for a while.

At the D-Lab, the Pachycephalosaurus, named Diamonda, was currently beating a punching bag with Dr.N's face on it with her head. Chomp and the others were watching, full-sized, from behind. "Geez, take a break, Diamonda." Terry said as he walked towards her.
"You've been doing that ever since you came back." Brontina said.
"Not until I see him gushing blood!" The Pachycephalosaurus replied, still smashing the bag. "But all I'm getting is this fluffy, white stuff."
"That's because it's a dummy; a training device." Ace explained. "It's not alive."
Diamonda growled at this new information before smacking the punching bag away with her tail. "Grrr. Why did you do this to me?"
"It's to help with stress." Paris explained. "Please don't take this the wrong way, but you were pretty aggressive back in Italy."
"Yeah that light shining off your head's cool when you're calm but not when we had to battle you." Giganto said.
"Yeah sis. It took both our Rainbow Blasts combined to hold off your Laser Ray Attack." Stiggy and Stigga said.
Diamonda was about to retort, but as she remembered all the destruction and pain she caused, she realised they had a point. "'Sigh' I guess you're right. It's just that I can't stand that old bastard." She said in anger.
"Isn't he your father?" Chomp asked.
Diamonda responded by getting uncomfortably into his face. "He is no father of mine! Not only is it obvious he didn't lay my egg, he simply tossed me aside once he was done toying around with me and went to find some other new victim!"
"You mean there are more of your kind?" They all asked in surprise from this information.
Diamonda nodded in response. "I believe there are nine others, including that Apatosaurus we fought."
While this went on, the rest of the D-Team was listening in on the conversation through a window. They decided having the Dinosaurs introduce themselves first would be better and safer given their first impressions of the Pachycephalosaurus. Rhysa's Cousins had finished with their scanning of Diamonda from their scanner and were telling the results to the others.
"So Cousins?" Rhysa asked.
"We're still not sure yet." Diego said. "But we can tell you a theory about the Secret Cards now."
"It's most likely they did some sort of experiment fusing Diamonda's Dinosaur Card with her Move Card." Alicia said.
"But we'll have to do some more scans and research to be sure." Dora said.
"I can't believe he'd experiment on Dinosaurs like that." Zoe growled.
"Me neither!" Rhysa said, slamming her fists together.
"That whole Hybro Gang is awful." Rex replied.
Max was about to answer with his own negative comment, but realised his dad wasn't exactly listening. "Hey, Dad, aren't you listening? This is pretty important stuff."
Spike turned around and revealed he had a cup of pudding in his hands. "Not only is it important, this stuff is really good. I got the very last cup of pudding!" He cheered.
"No way, Dad! That should've been mine!" Max screamed as he jumped his dad and tried to grab the cup from him.
"Stop it, Max! You're gonna make me drop it!" Spike struggled to keep his son back.
Of course, he did drop it, and it landed in the training room. "Oh look, pudding." Chomp said as they all walked towards it, deciding to have some lunch.
"No!" Father and son yelled at each other. "Now look what you did! The pudding's ruined!"
"I can't believe how childish they are." Zoe said in disgust
"This would be a case of 'like father like son.'" Reese told them as they watched the boys cry as their pudding was being consumed by Dinosaurs.
"Please save some for me!" Spike whined in vain as it was already all gone.
Next time on Dinosaur King:
Rhysa: I'm going alone this time.
Dr.N: You three have failed me to get my Pachycephalosaurus back and I'm not taking any chances! Louisa will go on her own this time!
Louisa: ALL RIGHT! Uh, I mean, yes sir Dr.N sir!
Rhysa: A pair of Pyroraptors and a Sauroposeidon!
Princess Serena: Help! We're slipping!
Princess Serenity: Help us! We don't want to be Dino Lunch!
A/N: Well that's my latest chapter wrapped up.
Now it's time to answer a question that sethelephant has asked. Is Giganto's design based off of the Giganotosaurus from Jurassic World Dominion? The answer to that question is yes, yes he is.
Another reason for this is that I'm finally going to be writing my first original chapter for this story now that I've finished this one.
But I need a place for it to be in and I don't know which country would be the best one. So if anyone can list me countries that they'd like the next chapter to be in then please PM, review and write.
