Thanks for the reviews...

chapter 8

Ducky and her mate Danuk were still arguing a wide circle of spectators had been formed solidly around them. They had been yelling at each other for hours, Ducky completely forgetting the threat of a sharp-tooth lose in the valley.

"You spend more time with those friends of yours than you do with your own herd!" concluded Danuk.

"Well at least I have friends! At least i don't go strutting around pretending that I'm the best in the herd!" Ducky yelled.

Danuk looked taken back before denying that he didn't strut around, "besides I know that I'm the best in the herd!" he finished with a smugness look on his features.

Ducky frowned, thinking how it would be best to reply but before she could someone screamed. She turned around and saw Littlefoot and a sharp-tooth approaching.

"you remember Ducky don't you?" asked Littlefoot once the pair arrived at the water hole.

The sharp-tooth nodded, "hey Ducky!" he greeted happily.

The duckbill was unsure as how the meat eater knew her name, "h-how do you know me?" she asked timidly. She glanced over at Danuk whose smugness had retreated and turned into fear.

The sharp-tooth grinned and turned to Littlefoot, "Gawsh, I guess she doesn't remember me after all." he exclaimed.

Littlefoot grinned back before turning back to Ducky, "you don't remember him?" he asked.

The duckbill shook her head but before the long neck could answer Petrie had made his way over towards the group and exclaimed, "why, isn't that Chomper?" the sharp-tooth smiled with pure happiness upon his features and nodded.

"nice to see you again Petrie!" he told the flier.

Petrie replied, "Nice to see you again too Chomper!"

Chomper turned towards Spike, "hey Spike!" The spike tail smiled and nodded back.

"he still can't talk." whispered Petrie.

The sharp-tooth nodded and smiled back towards the spike tail who was busy feasting upon a fern. Littlefoot turned to find Ali timidly behind him, she looked absolutely frightened.

"don't worry he's a friend, he wont hurt you!" he told her quietly.

Ali nodded and slowly approached the sharp-tooth, "Chomper this is Ali, Ali this is Chomper our childhood friend!" introduced Littlefoot.

Ali smiled and Chomper smiled back.

"I think that we should all catch up don't you think, Petrie?" asked Littlefoot.

Petrie grinned, "yep i think we should head over towards the glade and talk like we did when we were kids, don't you think spike?" he turned towards the spike tail.

Spike who had demolished the fern nodded in agreement and began to head towards the glade causing the group to laugh.

"yep, yep, yep, Petrie I think Spike agrees with you and so do I!" said Ducky and she then turned to follow her brother.

"I think that I need to get to know Chomper more!" Ali exclaimed before following Ducky.

Chomper smiled and turned to his two remaining friends, "should we invite Cera?" he asked.

Littlefoot and Petrie shared a look before shaking their heads, "come on let's go and catch up!" Petrie said and followed his friends towards the glade.

Sorry about this chapter, I guess that it was really boring! But please read and review!
