I do not own the Land Before Time Series at all or it's characters. I only own the characters I made up.

THE TIME OF DINOSAURS

Prolouge

Long ago but not so far away.

This is Earth the only know planet
Capable of sustaining life
But this is not the Earth we know.
We are in a time where reptiles not
Mammals ruled the Earth
Many of today's creatures had their beginnings in this bygone era
The Time of the Dinosaurs.

PART ONE: BEGGININGS

CHAPTER 1. DARKNESS DESCENDS

The sun rises over a beautiful green valley there are herds of many dinosaurs. This is a Nesting Ground for many migratory herds. A mother three-horn gaurds her nest in it are eight eggs that will soon hatch. She nudges them into place gently lowing while she does this. She hears footsteps behind her and hears a familiar bellow. Her mate Strong-brow has returned home. " How are the children doing Aysa?" Strong-brow asked. " They show signs of stirring they all seem healthy." Aysa responded. Then one of the eggs started to crack and bulge out of the shell came a male three-horn. " Look the first one out is a male! He looks like you Strong- brow." Aysa said. " He will be a good leader someday I'll name him Topps." Strong-brow said. Several nests away a female swimmer named Oolah welcomed her brood into the world. Asdid a herd of spiketails and fliers and the others. It was night and a male Longneck returned to his herd. " Brontopus the king of the herds has called you to a meeting!" A young club- tail told the great patriarch. " But my mate and my eggs are near hatching I must be there when it happens." Brontopus said. " Pterant demands it that all the males come. Even his own son Hawk-eye has to come. " That no good flyer all he wants is to rule the world!" Strong-brow said joining in. " Please come or the price will be heavy." The club-tail pleaded. All the males came to where their leader Pterant lived. Pternat the Ruthless.
Pterant watched as all the males came. Pterant was a pitch black flyer with many scars. He believed in the old legend that flyers had once ruled the world before land walkers took over. He would see to it that the flyers would be free to rule again with him as their emperor. He would cause distrust and mayhem. For he had special powers he had received from a rare flying rock. The Stone of Cold Fire. But he wasn't strong enough.
" Soon they will all belong to me. No saurian will dare cross me for if they do. The price will be heavy. But first I need an army to do my bidding." Pterant mused to himself.

CHAPTER 2. THE MEETING/
GRANDPA'S BIRTH

All the males had gathered at Carnotaur's peak where Pterant dwelled. Pterant appeared around his neck was a fragment of the stone that gave him his power. All of those who were good wished to remove it from him. " I see you all came. The time will soon come for me to take back what belonged to us flyers what you land walkers took from us! From you I shall crate an army to go forth and enslave Land Walkers everywhere and flyers shall reign supreme! Those who resist shall be killed!" The tyrant hissed. " It's madness you cannot do this!" Drake a grey-nosed swimmer shouted. " Hold your tongue swimmer! When you speak to me you shall call me your majesty or highness! No one will speak out to me! Ramphor, Mist see to it this swimmer never sees the light of another day!" Pterant said. Two flyers one a pink flyer with a long tail the other a brown flyer they are the ancestors of Sierra and Rinkus attack Drake. Then Borntopus nudges his friend out of the way. The flyers attack Brontopus who fights back. " Krilla release the sharpteeth!" Pterant orders another flyer. The flyer opens a cave and several raptors attack Brontopus who lashes at the pack- hunters with his tail. He fights back but even the mighty Brontopus isn't a match for a pack of sickle-claws. He falls to the ground injured in many places and bleeding heavily. Seeing his foe is weakened Pterant swoops down. He starts to utter a spell and his stone glows the last thing Bornotpus sees is lightning and then all goes black. Strong-brow roars at the loss of his friend. " Your leader defied me and he paid the price. Anybody who wishes to defy me will meet the same fate!" Pterant laughed flying off. " What do we do? Strong-brow what will we tell Kala?" Mace asked. " The truth. Their herd now needs a new leader. Rest easy my friend we will win back our freedom one day I promise." Strong-brow said. At Kala's nest her eggs start to hatch. " Where's Brontopus? He should've been here!" Kala wailed. " Long-neck I bear sad news. Brontopus is slain by my father. Tomorrow we shall send him off to the Great beyond." Hawk-eye said. " Dead! No my Brontopus dead!" His mother wailed. " His children shall never know their father." Kala weeped. Then the eggs started to hatch. " Kala the eggs!" Her mother said. The biggest egg hatched first out came a male the very image of his father. " What will you name him?" Hawk-eye asked. " Heavy-foot for he shall have to bear the heavy burden of his father's legacy." Kala said. The five other eggs hatched two more males and three females. Kala name them Alaina, Radipus, Long-tail, Thor, Mangolia and Hope. Heavy-foot had a great legacy ahead of him for one day he would lead his father's herd and put an end to Pterant's reign.

Next chapter: Heavyfoot hears of the Great Valley from his Grandfather and Pterant's reign starts to cause upset among the once peaceful herds. The segregation begins.
