Trouble in Paradise
Disclaimer: I don't own The Land Before Time characters.
A/N: This story takes place while Littlefoot and the gang are young.
Littlefoot is having a bad day; he got in trouble for getting home past his nest time. He is forbidden from leaving his nesting area for a week; and he would be accompanied by an escort whenever he needed to go somewhere. The young longneck decided it crosses the line when escorting him to relieve himself. He finds it stressful to relieve himself when others are near him. He is having a talk with his grandparents about it.
"It's not fair; I think the punishment you placed on me is too extreme," Littlefoot complained.
The elderly couple looked down at Littlefoot.
"You can whine and complain all you want; but, the punishment stands," Grandpa replied.
Littlefoot groaned in annoyance.
"I can't stand this; it sucks," Littlefoot complained.
Grandma smiled sympathetically at Littlefoot; she also knew the pain of being grounded. As a child, she was a troublemaker.
"A week may seem like forever; but, it'll go by faster than you think; we still love you Littlefoot," Grandma replied.
"I love you too; but, I still hate getting in trouble," Littlefoot admitted.
Grandma chuckled.
"Just be glad it's only a week; when I was a child, my parents grounded me for two weeks and wouldn't let me go anywhere by myself," Grandma said.
Littlefoot felt better about the punishment.
"I'm sorry for worrying you," Littlefoot said.
"We know you are; but, you still need to be punished," Grandpa stated.
Littlefoot hoped that the week will go by fast so he can have freedom again.
