Here's the most thrilling part yet! (in my opinion at least)

Just remember that sleep-stories don't realize in a hundred percent, so don't expect Chomper's sleep-story to completely come real...

I've got an advice for you on this Part: read all of the lines carefully to make sure you don't miss an important detail, as some of the important details can be only 2 or 3 lines long.

Part 7- The Events in the Fast-Runner Canyon

Back in the canyons in the Mysterious Beyond...

Chomper and Ruby hurried across the way they were forced to pick, hoping they took the right one.

After a short while they heard a splash, and a voice said: "Be careful when you jump with head first, or it will get stuck in the ground.".

Ruby knew the voice very well. After all, this was the first voice she heard when she hatched!

"Mom!", she shouted happily and ran towards her.

"Oh, Ruby! You're back!", her mother replied and hugged her, almost crying with joy.

Her siblings, who were playing in a small pond came and hugged her as well, and she hugged them back.

"Where is dad?", Ruby asked in excitement.

"He is searching for food now, he will be so happy to see you!

Oh, how nice! You found yourself a friend!", Ruby's mom added when she noticed Chomper.

"Yeah! Mom, this is Chomper. Chomper, this is my mom. My mom she is!", Ruby introduced.

"Nice to meet you, Ruby's mom!", Chomper said and smiled.

"Oh my! You're a sharptooth!", Ruby's mom startled a bit back.

"Don't worry!", Ruby quickly said.

"He's the nicest sharptooth ever! He won't hurt us!".

"Don't worry,", he reassured her.

But she really trusted him when the babies checked him out and the three started playing a bit.

In perfect timing, Ruby's dad returned from gathering food.

Ruby was the first to notice and said happily: "Dad! I'm back!", and ran to him, hugging him as well (and accidentally making him drop the mixture of leaves and tree sweets).

"Ruby! You're already back!", he said, hugging her back, completely forgetting about the food.

But then he noticed Chomper and quickly jumped between him and his family and started threatening him: "Hey sharptooth! Don't you dare taking one step closer to my family!".

But Ruby and her mom stood in his way and Ruby quickly said: "Please dad! Don't hurt him! He's my friend!".

"A sharptooth?! Your friend?!", he said confused and a bit angry.

"I thought I told you to stay away from sharpteeth!".

"But I had to save him! He was in my journey sleep story!".

Following the last sentence Ruby's dad changed his approach (and tone) completely.

"Oh. Well, that's a completely different story! I am very sorry.", he apologized.

"That's alright.", Chomper accepted his apology.

"And you can even talk! That's really amazing!", Ruby's dad said in surprise.

"So, what's your name?", he asked.

"My name is Chomper.".

Then Chomper remembered something.

"Oh Ruby. I forgot. It's good that my sleep-story didn't come true, ha?".

"It sure is!", Ruby agreed.

"What sleep-story?", the two adult Fast-Runners quickly asked.

"The one that I was having when Ruby slept with me and my folks".

At that point Ruby's dad really wanted to shout at her, probably something like "How did you dare sleeping with a family of sharpteeth?!", but Ruby's mom already asked: "What was in that sleep-story?", she asked in curiosity.

"My friends, me, Ruby and you were chased by Red Claw, which is the meanest and biggest sharptooth in the area! But my sleep-story ended before he...", Chomper started but didn't want to say the last 2 words.

The two parents looked at each-other with worried faces.

"We're really lucky that it didn't really happened. Aren't we?, Ruby asked.

"You know? This canyon really looks a lot like the canyon in my sleep-story.", Chomper finally said.

The 2 kids didn't understand why Ruby's parent were so worried, but they were all really worried when they heard the one sound Ruby and Chomper wished they would never hear again: A familiar, loud roar, that was heard from a canyon behind them, different from the canyon Ruby and Chomper took.

(If you ask yourselves why it took so long for Red Claw and his helpers to get there, it's because their canyon was full with boulders and hills of rocks, which gave a hard time for Red Claw to get through, unlike the kids' canyon which was completely flat).

"Red Claw!", the 2 kids shouted at the same time.

The 7 dinosaurs started running as Red Claws' stomps could also be heard now (The 2 adult Fast-Runners carried the twins, and Ruby and Chomper running along side them, with Ruby giving a hand to Chomper to help him keep up.).

Meanwhile , not far above them...

"Red Claw!", the gang heard the scream from below, in exactly the same way they were going.

The gang quickly recognized one of the voices as... "Chomper!", they all shouted and ran in the scream's direction, Littlefoot ahead of them, though they didn't see what caused the scream.

Not far, even higher then the gang...

The parents meanwhile managed to reach the peak of the great wall, and now had a good view of the Mysterious Beyond (as well as the Great Valley, if they only turned around).

And what they saw was their kids running right ahead to a huge sharptooth in the canyon below them without reason.

They all shouted their kids' name, but the gang didn't hear them, or was too busy tracking down Chomper and couldn't listen to their parents.

Back in the canyon...

Ruby's family, Ruby and Chomper were still running from Red Claw, but being so big, Red Claw began catching up with them soon enough.

Red Claw was now so close to Ruby and Chomper (who were right behind Ruby's family) he lowered his head and opened his mouth, ready to bite the 2 kids.

"Help!!!", they shouted, not really sure why (maybe except for Chomper, in the back of his mind).

And in the last moment, when their tails were literally in Red Claw's mouth, a boulder fell on his head, confusing him for a moment.

Ruby and Chomper looked up, and Chomper shouted, overjoyed "Littlefoot!".

And he replied "I'm coming to save you Chomper! Keep running!", with him running along the canyon, above them.

Red Claw looked in anger at Littlefoot and roared.

Littlefoot, who didn't know the sharpteeth language, was confused because he was not being chased by him, but Chomper knew what the roar meant and quickly shouted: "Littlefoot! Watch out behind you!".

Screech and Thud were charging at Littlefoot, ready to strike with their claws, and Littlefoot didn't have time to do anything against that.

Red Claw told Screech and Thud to get their dinner...

Just when it seemed over for Littlefoot, Cera charged in at both of them.

Thud managed to jump back and avoid the impact, but Screech was thrown into the canyon, where he fell unconscious.

"What would you have done without me?", Cera taunted and they both started running.

The 3 other quickly joined them as were running along the 7 dinosaurs below them.

Thud was behind them and was about to get them when Mr. Threehorn charged against him, knocking him on Red Claw.

The kids kept running, barely noticing their parents arrived as well.

Thud was also knocked out cold, but this just made Red Claw even angrier, calling Chomper: "You won't escape from me again!".

(If you are asking yourselves why he is so angry on Chomper, this is because of the countless times Chomper ventured to the Mysterious Beyond, on his way to the Great Valley, without his parent's permission, of course, and managed to get away from Red Claw, ruining his "reputation" as a vicious killer.).

The parents would have stopped the kids if this wouldn't have happened:

Seeing her family, Tricia, who was watching hidden from afar, decided she doesn't want to play anymore, and ran towards her parents, but tripped on a stone, and rolled under their feet, into the canyon.

It would have been the end of her, unless she landed on Red Claw as well, and rolled down to the canyon, still giggling from the "ride".

"Tricia!", the grown-ups called, her parents the loudest of course.

Red Claw was now really angry, and he didn't want a hatchling to make fun of him, let alone Chomper.

He was making a move to kill the immobile baby (she was lying on her back, still laughing), but Chomper, who just couldn't stand it, and that was his personality as well, ran back, and Ruby called him fearfully: "Chomper! It's too dangerous!".

"Don't worry! Just keep running!", he called her back.

Chomper went right between Red Claws' feet and quickly grabbed Tricia.

Seeing that, the parents cheered and went to look for a way into the canyon to help.

Red Claw turned back, this time mad out of his mind on Chomper.

"Ruby!", Chomper shouted as he saw her coming.

"Quick! Put her on my back!", Ruby told him, and he did, and then they went back to running.

Meanwhile, the kids found a way down to the canyon, and quickly went down to help.

"Littlefoot! Everyone!", Chomper called as they started running beside them.

"Who's your girlfriend?", Cera taunted Chomper, seeing he and Ruby held hands.

"This is not the time for this Cera! Oh no, no, no!", Ducky reminded her.

"Can it get any worse than this?", Littlefoot asked himself loudly.

"Actually, me think it can!", Petrie said in fear as Screech and Thud joined up again behind Red Claw...

So, how was it so far?

I think this is my best chapter so far, but that's just me.

Don't you love those cliffhangers? xP

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed!

Feel free to review and comment!

Look forward to the next chapter!

Note: I decided to include a small bonus: a story/stories of a few events that happened right after Chomper and Ruby decided to live in the Great Valley.

The story/stories take place after the original story is over.
