CHAPTER 2. NEW FRIENDS AND FAMILY
"So then just at the last minute Pterano rescues Ducky from danger then we all fly back to the Great Valley where Pterano was sentenced to 5 cold times in the Mysterious Beyond." Littlefoot explained to his sister. "Sounds like you've had quite a full life already. When I was your age I was migrating from the coldlands to the wintering grounds and back again. I never had anybody to play with other than the children in my adopted herd. My...my adopted mother Serena seemed worried that I'd be stepped on as I was a lot smaller than the others. My biggest adventure was when I was separated from mom and dad and our grandparents. The sharpteeth chased me and the others tried to fight them off but then the smoking mountain started to blow up and I got separated. Days passed as I ran around calling for our parents and grandparents to rescue me. I was alone in a desolate wilderness one day when I thought I was done for this herd of Earth-shakers found me and took me in. I lived with them until I went to the big gathering. That's when I started to look for the Great Valley and you guys." Sahala explained. "Well your home now Sahala. It's where your mother would've wanted to be." Grandpa gentley said. "I'm going to go look around now. Is that okay Grandma and Grandpa?" Sahala asked. "It's fine with us...Littlefoot why don't you go play too." Grandpa said. "Okay see you around!" Littlefoot replied. Sahala lumbered off she heard someone laughing. "Who's there?" She asked. " Come on give it back! Hyp please!" a voice pleaded. Sahala saw Hyp and his new group of bullies, a three-horn, a crown-head and a clubtail tormenting another of Hyp's kind. "What's wrong?" Sahala asked the other sprinter. "Hyp's group is always taking stuff from me even though I'm older than them!" The other sprinter replied. "Are you Hyp?" Sahala asked. "Hey you look like that baby longneck who hangs out with those friends of his. The one we beat up!" Hyp exclaimed. "Who Littlefoot he's my younger brother. Now give the other sprinter back what you took from him. Please." Sahala asked gently. "Sorry this tree-stone is ours! Now beat it!" Hyp snapped. "Can I teach her a lesson Hyp?" the three-horn asked. "Hyp knock it off!" a male voice called out. It was another longneck a male about Sahala's age. "Not him! Run!" Hyp yelled dropping the tree-stone. He and the others ran off. "Here you go." Sahala said giving the other sprinter the tree-stone. "Thank's I'm Racer and this big guy is my best friend Strider." Racer said introducing the male long-neck. Strider was brown, with a reddish brown underside, and darker brown stripe, his eyes were blue. "Hi I'm Sahala I'm kind of new here." Sahala introduced herself. "Why not hang with us!?" Strider asked. "Sure." Sahala replied. They went back to Strider and Racer's other friends, a female of Mr. Thick-nose's kind named Pachy, a large flyer named Stratus, Iris a rainbow face and Cory a disc-headed swimmer ( corythasaurus.) " Guy's this is our new friend Sahala, she's new here, her younger brother is Littlefoot." Strider said. The others welcomed her warmly. Meanwhile Littlefoot's gang was talking. "I still can't believe Littlefoot has an older sister. My dad says she looks mighty suspicious! I mean she came here all alone how do we know she's not making it up!?" Cera asked. "I think she is Littlefoot's sister I do, I do." Ducky replied. "Me too. She said she been lost all this time." Petrie added. Spike nodded in agreement. "She look's like my mom and dad's kid, Cera she's not lying. I wish dad knew she was alive. He's probably been missing her for a long time. I wish he could see her." Littlefoot said.
Little did they know Littlefoot would get his wish.
