Chapter 14: Celebrate is the fourteenth chapter of Dinosaur Creek Part 1, the fourteenth overall chapter of Dinosaur Creek and the season finale of Dinosaur Creek Part 1. It was released on August 29, 2021.

## Plot Summary

In the city, the mayor holds a press conference that explains how Emily discovered the ship, discovered Hero’s intentions and illegal actions, and fought her way to save the day by crashing the ship. For her effort, he awards her the medal of honor and bravery. She looks into the cheering crowd and does see the dinosaurs in their human forms and Revit cheers for her honor. Commissioner Bryce does pull her aside and congrats her for her efforts once again. Happy, she hugs and thanks him, calling him dad and clarifying them as father and daughter. When the conference ends, Emily requests to celebrate her honor with her friends before she goes back to the station to celebrate with her colleagues. Bryce agrees and she takes off.

Back at the house in the Formation Park, Emily celebrates her honor with the dinosaurs. Though Shane claims they're still unanswered questions they still need to learn, mainly regarding Terrarium converting one of their bases into an airship, how Hero's running the company despite being a dinosaur in secret, who Tyrone is, why there was a sarchosuchus in the city moat, and how Hero is planning his world takeover plan with his dinosaur agents at his disposal. The team then congratulates one another on their success, pointing out how each member contributed to their first successful mission:

* Caren for leading the rescue and for destroying the generator.
* Emily for destroying the remote, saving Tex, helping Caren destroy the generator, and helping the team find a new home in the park.
* Blaster for providing air support for the generator and getting the team on/off the ship.
* Shane for getting into the generator and planning out the crash.
* Revit for driving the van, leading the ship to the city, and contacting the authorities.
* Rover for barking at the ship to provide extra attention.
* Morgan for informing the team about Terrarium's treachery and for helping Elder escape.
* Peter for guiding the team through the base and helping Morgan save Elder.
* Tex with his leading skills in the fights and in the escape of the airship.

Peter is shown to be hanging out with the team, noting he would like to help their newly formed rebellion with his experience as a rogue dinosaur. He also claims he has no where he needs to be at the moment. The team especially congratulates Caren for leading them and coming up with the whole plan by herself, but she does try to clarify that Tex was the one who led them to where they are now in the first place. This makes the group come together and decide that Tex should be their leader. Though Tex is honored by this, he decides to give Caren some credit by appointing her as a co-leader. Even though she doesn’t want to be that important in leading, she decides to call herself the team's second in command, with everyone agreeing. She even declares to Tex that she is fully willing to follow him. The group officially dub themselves the Dinosaur Rebellion. Tex also thanks Emily for all her help and she says that he is finally making a good start for him, making him feel good that he’s finally moving on from Kireina. As she responds with his “*And I you*” comment from earlier, Tex blushes from this, hinting he may be growing affections for her.

Blaster eventually points out how Morgan may still be wanted by the other Terrarium base in Alto. But she declares she will still stay in Viridian and with the team since she has more fun here and has more friends. Blaster smiles with glee and the two show a sign of a good friendship, even though they may like each other closer. The team finally finishes by drinking, leading to Blaster making a joke. But it causes him to toss his cup of water towards Caren, making this the third time he’s got her wet. Declaring strike three, Caren uses her tail to break one of Blaster’s chair legs and causes him to fall back down to the floor. Though dizzy, he and the team laugh from this.

Elsewhere, shots of other characters could be seen. The defective dinosaurs Clay and Mac watch Hell Creek in the distance, but because they don’t have morph bracelets, they have to stay within the wilderness. But to their surprise, Buckley separates from them so she can explore the outside world by herself, much to the boys' worry. Now happy to be free of Terrarium and the dinosaurs, Kiriena escapes Hell Creek and prepares to search the area for more prey to feast on, though she personally declares she will get back to Tex for real one day. Elder also looks out at the city, thinking he’ll come back once he’s helped out as much as he could on the outside, as well as learn more about Morgan.

The Raptors get a glimpse of the ship crash from their hiding place and an angered Dreda becomes determined to take down the dinosaurs. She plans on doing this while Hero is locked in prison and they’ll take the opportunity to do so since they are no longer at a Terrarium base. She and the group then take off into the while, with Sinor and Mega following. Even though Mega is a bit remorseful for the damaged state of the base and for Dreda’s reckless plans. However, she holds onto a vial that she labels “ Rebel sediment” which she intends to analyze later. This was the sediment she picked off from Morgan earlier. Hero and a couple of his employees who were on the base when it crashed are brought to jail. Though the employees are brought in for questioning, Hero is thrown into his jail, waiting for his sentence to be over. He is also seen still wearing his morph bracelet, showing that his dinosaur form is his real form.

More shots show as some time passes after the crash. Owen returns home after work to his father and sister, Violet. He greets her with care, but after watching the ceremony on TV, Violet still refuses to accept Emily as a hero. Owen then looks down at his phone and shows he managed to get a picture of the dinosaurs escaping from the ship, but because of the distance and blurriness, he can’t make out what it is. He then vows to himself to learn what they are and bring them in. Finally, another while shows Doc setting up his bookstand in the city. He is suddenly greeted by Caren who, having brought along Emily and Morgan, offers to buy some books and help him save his business, which makes him pleased. As the girls return to the boys and Rover, who is sitting on a bench in the city, the seven friends look over the city, feeling proud about what they achieved in their first mission as a team.

The final scene is a monologue by a mysterious female voice. The woman managing monologues how humanity managed to evolve past many creatures in the world, created civilization for themselves and left other creatures to either be stuck on evolution or be driven to extinction. Watching the team through a green orb, the human woman declares “*So enjoy your victory while you can, children. You’ve earned it. But take heed, for it won’t last. Your supposed happy ending will have to wait, children. For this is merely the beginning...of your extinction again.*” As the woman makes the orb vision vanish in a form of green magic, the woman narrows her green raptor-like eyes and menacingly smiles, showing off her sharp teeth, proving her as a carnivorous dinosaur.
