Chapter 5: Ducky gets kidnapped


That night, Mario had a hard time sleeping again. He couldn't stop thinking about what he did. He then woke up and saw Littlefoot and the rest looking at him.

(Littlefoot) Are You okay Mario?

(Mario) It's my fault Petrie was hurt.

(Luigi) Bro. It's not your fault.

(Mario) Yes it is. Petrie's upset because he won't believe what Pterano really is. In fact, I'm going to Petrie's nest and tell him I'm sorry.

Mario got up and walked to Petrie's nest with the rest and Littlefoot behind him.

Ducky was also having a hard time sleeping. She felt bad about what happened to Petrie. She never told this to anyone. But somehow, she was in love with Petrie.

(Ducky) Spike. Tickles. I can not sleep. I am worried about Petrie. Friends should not make friends feel bad. I am going to find Petrie. I will make things better. Yep, yep, yep.

So Ducky left to find Petrie. Tickles tried to follow her but Spike held him back.

When Ducky was passing by the sleeping Far Walkers, she heard something and peaked over a sleeping Long-neck. It was Pterano and he was with Sierra and Rinkus again. And from not too far away. Littlefoot, Mario, and the rest also saw Pterano and hid behind a bush.

(Pterona) Keep quiet.

(Sierra) Why should we? And why are we just sitting here? We should be on our way to the Smoking Mountains by now.

And of course. Screech, Thud, Strut, Ozzy, Ichy, Dil, and the koopa kids were watching from a tree.

(Thud) So that guy is after the stone to huh?

(Screech) Well only one dinosaur is fit to have The Stone Of Cold Fire and it's Red Claw & Bowser.

(Bowser Jr.) I've already had my share of Smoking Mountains. But this is for Red Claw & my dad.

Yet, even Strut knew that stone was going to give Red Claw and Bowser the power they needed. They just stayed until it was clear to move.

(Pterano) The young ones have told their parents that they have spoken to me. If we leave in a hurry, everyone will think we're up to no good.

(Rinkus) We are up to no good.

Pterano then slapped Rinkus on the beak again.

(Pterano) No! I work for the greater good. My purpose is novel. The herd has never understood. But soon, I will prove I am right! Until then, we must be careful. We will leave with the rest of the Far Walkers once the great Night Circle starts to shrink.

(Rinkus) And then we will find The Stone Of Cold Fire. Yes?

(Pterano) Yes. And when I have the power, I will rule the world. And my capital will be none other than one of the most fertile places. The Great Mushroom Valley Kingdom.

Littlefoot, Mario, and the rest were shocked about what Pterano was going to do. And so was Ducky.

(Ducky) Oh no, no, no. I must tell Mario.

Ducky got off of the Long-neck and began to make her way to Littlefoot's nesting ground. But then, she saw Sierra in front of her.

(Sierra) Where do you think you're going? Ante it kind of late for a stroke?

Ducky was caught in the act. She let out a scream as Sierra grabbed her with his foot. Sierra then flew back to Rinkus and Pterano.

(Sierra) Check it out. We got ourselves a little spy.

(Pterano) Well well. If it isn't the little Big-mouth. This forces me to make a small change in our flight plane.

(Ducky) No. I do not like flying.

The 3 then started to fly away with Ducky still being held onto Sierra. Littlefoot, Mario, and the rest were lucky that they didn't get caught. But they saw everything.

(Daisy) I knew Pterano can't be trusted. C'mon guys. We need to find Petrie. And fast.

The 3 then came out of hiding and ran to Petrie's nest. Ducky then let out another scream.

(Ducky) Let me go you big meanies. Let me go.

Ducky's voice was so loud that it woke up the Far Walkers and everyone else in the valley.

(Mr. Spike-tail) What's going on? What's with the noise?

Then the dinosaurs thought it was a Sharp-tooth attack and ran around the place to find them. Littlefoot, Mario, and the rest ran straight through the crowd as they got to Petrie's nest to wake him up.

(Luigi) Petrie. Petrie. wake up.

Petrie woke up in time to see Littlefoot, Mario, and the rest in front of his nest and flew to them.

(Petrie) Guys? Something wrong?

(Peach) It's Ducky.

(Littlefoot) Pterano, Sierra, and Rinkus took her.

(Mario) That's why I never trusted him. He's evil.

Petrie gasps at what he heard. But he still didn't believe that Pterano was dangerous and flew in front of their faces.

(Petrie) Oh not again. Why you acting like stink bugs? Pterano good. He no do that ever. HE NO DANGEROUS!

And then Mama Flyer came.

(Mama Flyer) No Petrie. It is Pterano. They're telling the truth. Pterano really is evil.

Now Petrie can see it. His friends weren't acting like stink bugs. They were telling the truth the whole time. And now he was heart broken. He saw where Pterano and the other flyers were and flew straight to them.

(Mama Flyer) Petrie, wait!

Petrie igrowned his mother and made it to Pterano. As Petrie got closer, he saw that Sierra almost bumped into Rinkus.

(Rinkus) Hey. Watch where you're going.

(Sierra) You think this is easy? How about you carry her?

(Petrie) Pterano.

Pterano didn't take too long to find Petrie under him.

(Petrie) Uncle. You make mean flyer let Ducky go.

(Pterano) Petrie. Listen to me. I want you to tell the grown-ups not to follow us and there will be no harm to the Swimmer.

(Petrie) Me no understand why you do this.

Rinkus then grabbed Petrie with his foot.

(Rinkus) You think you can stop us?

(Sierra) Well you are wrong.

Rinkus then tossed Petrie and slapped his wing on him which made Petrie fall. Ducky saw the whole thing.

(Ducky) Petrie.

Rinkus then let out an evil laugh. Then Pterano slapped him on the beak again.

(Pterano) If there's one thing I won't tolerate, it's violence.

(Rinkus) Then why did you slap me?

(Pterano) Right. Make that two things. Violence and stupid questions.

Petrie then landed in a watering hole as Littlefoot, Mario, His friends, and Mama Flyer came to him. Mario jumped in the water to grab Petrie and brought him back to dry land.

(Mario) Petrie. Are you okay?

(Petrie) Me think so.

All that they could do now was watch Pterano and the other Flyers take Ducky away.

(Ducky) Help help help.
