Chapter 5: The chase begins

The gang were all together on Tall Peek. The highest mountain in The Great Valley.

(Ducky) Yep yep yep. We are all here. Yes we are.

(Petrie) But what we here for?

(Mario) Is there a problem?

Almost all of them were sitting as Cera walked back and forth.

(Cera) Grown-ups. I suppose that you all got the same lecture I did.

They all nodded.

(Ducky) We are not grown-ups and should remember it.

(Petrie) Me too young to wander far.

(Peach) There are many dangers. We must always be careful.

(Cera) Don't hang around with Long-necks, Beak-faces, Spike-tails, and kingdom travelers.

But she looked back at the others as she knew that wasn't the same.

(Cera) Well. It was mostly the same lecture.

(Peach) The grown-ups are mainly worried that we'd get hurt.

(Cera) That's the problem. They don't think we can take care of ourselves. We have to do something so the grown-ups will stop treating us like hatchlings.

(Mario) Guys you and Yoshi almost drowned in quicksand. You know how they'll feel if they lost you.

(Cera) Who's side are you on?

(Mario) It's not about sides. Ever since Littlefoot's mother died, We promised him we would keep him safe and stay by his side no matter what. We both feel like it's our responsibility to keep all of you safe.

(Cera) Really?

(Mario) Yes. So what were you thinking?

(Cera) Well...We could run away from home.

That got them in a shock state but Petrie nodded his head yes.

(Petrie) Uhh, Where we run?

(Cera) We can just stay here.

(Luigi) Come on. Anybody can find us here.

(Cera) No one can find us up here. See these rocks? This can be our hideout. And we're up real high.

Everyone looked at the ledge. Mario had to admit that Cera was right.

(Ducky) You can see everything up here. You can.

(Mario) Look Ducky. There's your nest. But why do I see 2 struthiomimus walking away?

But then Daisy gasped as saw what they were doing.

(Daisy) Hey. They're stealing an egg.

(Ducky) They're egg napping part of our family.

(Littlefoot) Quick. We better tell the grown-ups.

But when Littlefoot stepped onto the slope, Cera got in his way.

(Cera) No. Wait. If we catch them ourselves, it'll show everyone that we're not babies anymore.

(Littlefoot) I don't know.

(Cera) Look scaredy. There's 14 of us and only 2 of them. What can go wrong?

(Littlefoot) Well

Before he could finish, Luigi got onto Littlefoot's back as Toadette got on Cera's, Ducky got on Spike's, and Mario got on Yoshi's

(Mario) Look. we don't like this ether. But it will be too late if we tell the grown-ups. We think we can handle this.

(Daisy) Just stay close to us, okay? We don't want another incident like the one from today.

(Cera) You got it. Now come on. Let's go get those creeps.

They ran down the mountain and started to chase the egg-eaters. Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, and Toadette got out a fire flower and we're ready to throw some fireballs

(Mario) Ready Guys?

(Luigi, Peach, Toad, and Toadette) Ready when you are.

Strut and Ozzy came to a stop and got ready to eat the egg.

(Ozzy) Now remember I get the first bite. After all this was all my idea.

But before he could bite it, The Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, and Toadette started throwing fireballs at them. Though they didn't hit the egg-eaters sense they didn't want to damage the egg, the fireballs did scare them. They then turned around and saw where they came from.

(Mario) Drop that egg and put your hands in the air.

(Ozzy) Uh oh. We've been spotted. I told you not to be so obvious.

Ozzy shoved the egg on to Strut's hands before running away.

(Strut) Ozzy, wait for me.

(Ducky) Bring back my sibling.

The egg-eaters ran to the Great Wall and started climbing up as the gang saw what they were doing.

(Cera) They're heading for The Mysterious Beyond. Maybe we should get help after all.

(Peach) It's too late now. They'll get away.

Littlefoot ran up the slope with Luigi still on him. They both then looked at Cera.

(Luigi) This was your idea. Are you coming or not?

Cera only hesitated for 3 seconds. Then she kicked the dirt and ran on to a rock, smashing it into a lot of pebbles. Petrie flew in the air and saw the egg-eaters on the top.

(Petrie) Me see them on top of cliff.

(Littlefoot) Great work Petrie.

(Mario) Let's hurry.
