Chapter 1: A dream about the sun


Littlefoot, Mario, and his friends had just woken up from a goodnight sleep. But something was odd. They were at a place that didn't seem like Littlefoot's nest. And there were floating Long-necks all around them.

But before they knew it, they started floating in the air as well. But it was fun. They liked it and started moving around. And then, they saw a floating rock platform and hopped onto it. Then they started running on it. Making it go faster and faster until they stopped moving and let it spin freely. They were having so much fun.

But then, suddenly, a huge shadow casted over them. And looked up and gasped as they saw that strange clouds were coming. All the other Long-necks around them saw it too and were amazed at what they were looking at.

It looked like the clouds were circling around the sun. Making it go dark. They watched as everything but the top of their bodies got covered in pitch black. What was going on? Then they looked up and saw that the sun wasn't pitch black. They closed their eyes sense they didn't want to see anything else. But a force opened their eyes up. Making them watch as the sun fell from its place and onto the earth.

(All) AAAHHH!

The moment they gasped for air, they saw that they were back at Littlefoot's nesting ground.

(Luigi) Oh. It was just a dream.

(Yoshi) Yoshi Yoshi (I thought the sun burned it in my dream.)

(Littlefoot) I think all of us had the same dream.

(Mario) You think?

The 3 didn't care what it was about though. So they just went back to sleep.

However, their comotion had woken up the yokai.

(Komasan) What were they talking about?

(Whisper) Precisely, they seem to have had a sleep vision. Or as it's called on the street, a dream.

(Fuu 2) Whoa dude. What do you think their dream was about?

(Mee 2) Toadsworth?

(Komajiro) It could be a creepy dream.

(Jibanyan) Or maybe

(USApyon) Guys. We can talk about it in the morning. Just go back to sleep.

And so they did. But neither one of them saw Grandma and Grandpa Longneck struggling in their sleep. Meaning that they could be having a dream just like Littlefoot, Mario, and his friends dream. They then laid their necks on each other to calm down.

(Later that morning)

After breakfast, Littlefoot, Mario, and his friends met up with Ducky and began a game of tag.

(Ducky) I am going to get you. Yep, yep, yep.

(Luigi) Oh no you're not.

They ran all around the valley. Enjoying their game. Ducky was about to tag Luigi, but he moved out of the way in time and made her trip. Making them getaway.

(Ducky) Oh. I can not get them.

Ducky was about to give up on the game. But Petrie came by.

(Petrie) Me no think you catch me either.

Ducky got her hopes back and began to go after Petrie instead. However, she spotted Spike still eating his breakfast. He wasn't moving at all.

(Ducky) Then I will get Spike.

Ducky ran over to Spike and made a leap to tag him in his back. But she missed and fell flat on her back next to him.

(Ducky) Ow.

But then, she spotted Cera. She wasn't moving either. Ducky then got ready to tag her. But Cera spotted her.

(Cera) Don't even think about it.

But Ducky didn't listen and tagged her by her lag.

(Ducky) Tag. You are

Before she could finish, Cera rammed Ducky with her horn and knocked her flat on her back on a tree trunk.

(Cera) What part of don't even think about it do you not understand?! How can I be it when I'm not even playing the game?!

However, neither one of them saw that Cera had just stepped on Tickles' back. All that he heard was the part where Ducky tagged Cera. And sense Cera stepped on him, it counts as a tag. He was it now. He then saw Mario coming by.

(Mario) Ducky!

(Tickles) She already tagged Cera and then she tagged me. I'm it now.

(Luigi) Yikes!

Luigi ran back to his brother and Littlefoot who were waiting for them.

(Daisy) Get ready. Tickles are it now.

As they ran away from Tickles, Cera turned back to Ducky.

(Ducky) It looked like you were playing to me.

(Cera) I was eating my breakfast. And I wasn't finished yet.

(Ducky) Oh. I am so sorry. But it was Mario's idea to play tag today.

(Cera) MARIO!

The gang was running up a hill. However, they ended up stopped the moment they saw the sun. They then remembered the dream they had last night as they looked at it. Tickles caught up with them but was very exhausted. But he managed to tag Mario.

(Tickles) Tag... You're...it...Mario.

The moment Tickles fell down on her side, Cera also caught up to them.

(Cera) Mario. Next time you want to play tag, wait until all of us are finished eating.

However, Mario wasn't listening. He was too focused on the sun.

(Cera) Mario. I'm talking to you.

Still, he didn't answer. Cera then saw that Mario's friends and Littlefoot were in the same trance Mario was in. As Petrie came by, he took note of that and flew in front of the sun. Completely blocking it from their eyes and braking their trance.

(Petrie) Hey. Didn't you hear Mario? Cera mad at you for playing tag without her.

(Mario) Huh? What?

(Cera) What's with you guys? It's just the sun. We see it everyday. Why is it suddenly so interesting?

(Peach) We don't know. But it looks like something we saw in that strange dream we had last night.

(Ducky) Oh. I have dreams all of the time. I see myself swimming down into deepest waters. I love them.

(Petrie) Me have dreams all time as well. Me fly up to highest places up in big sky.

(Tickles) I always dream about...uh...well...you might not want to know what they are. But Spike has dreams about all the food he can eat.

Spike nodded in agreement. His dreams are always like that.

(Littlefoot) I guess not all dreams are bad.

(Daisy) Say. Cera. What kind stuff happens in your dreams?

(Cera) Three-horns don't have dreams. They're for babies. They're all full of boring stuff that'll never come true.

(Wario) Really? Well in a dream I had long ago, I saw you head-butt this really big rock so hard that it split into 2.

(Cera) Really? I did that?

(Mario) Yeah. But like you said. Dreams are dumb. Something like that could never happen.

(Cera) Hold on. I didn't say everything in a dream is dumb. Besides, that was something that could happen. There's not a rock in the whole Great Valley that I couldn't crack with my head.

Wario looked around for a rock that Cera could break. At that moment, he saw a huge one next to her.

(Wario) What about that one?

Cera looked at the rock Wario was talking about. She felt nervous about it. Petrie flew on top of the rock to watch.

(Petrie) Yeah. This one.

(Cera) Well...I...okay.

Cera then ran at full speed to the rock. But when she head-butt it, it gave her a bad headache.

(Cera) Ow. I'm going home. My head hurts.

As Cera walked back to her nesting ground, Wario started to feel a little guilty.

(Wario) I didn't mean to make her hurt her head. But I can still break stuff you know.

(All) We know.

(Petrie) Me think you mainly hurt her brag-bone.

(Luigi) What a brag-bone.

(Mario) Her pride.
