AN:first of all it will be the point of views of Chomper, Ducky, Petrie, Cera and an apology, ENJOY!
After watching Littlefoot's attempts to save the three horn and nearly drown himself too. Chomper had to act, he had to act for his friends. Glancing around him frantically he finally saw a tall sapling tree and rushed over to it. Causing Ducky to call after him, but the sharp tooth ignored her and did what he had to do. Snapping the sapling from the ground he dragged it towards the river's edge, ignoring all the curious looks he was receiving Chomper slid the long sapling into the river. He fervently hoped that it would reach the deep end. He felt something grab hold of it, hoping it was Cera or Littlefoot or even both he began to pull it in. to his relief he saw Cera coming up to the surface spluttering, but he realized to his horror that the long neck is friend must have gone under. Blinking back tears he continued to pull Cera in.
She couldn't believe it, Littlefoot had always risked his life to save others. However that was not what was concerning the duck bill, she was concerned about the long neck's strength as he slowly paddled his way back to the bank. It was fading fast, Ducky only hoped that it would not fail until he got to the bank. But it appeared fate was not on their side, she watched in horror as her two friends sank beneath the blue beyond. Out of the corner of her eye, Ducky saw Chomper runaway from the scene wondering what he was doing she called out to him but he ignored her. She knew that she was too small and weak to carry either of them. But she hoped that help would come. Suddenly struck with an idea she turned to Petrie who was watching in horror as the event took place.
"Go get Grandpa Long neck." she ordered him.
Swiftly the flyer took of into the air and was out of sight in a matter of seconds. Spike was crying, Ducky soothingly told him that everything would be alright but would it? She didn't know, amazingly however she saw Chomper pulling Cera along, the three horn clinging onto the sapling. But what about Littlefoot?
Petrie had never been so scared in all of his life, he was watching two of his friends drowning. Littlefoot had done the right thing in saving Cera, well attempting to save Cera. Like he had always had done, the Long neck had placed his friends lives before his own and he was risking his own life to save Cera. Petrie didn't know how or why the long neck's strength was leaving him but it was having an affect upon his swimming. He heard Spike gulping which resulted the spike tail to have hiccups. But the flyer knew how Spike felt, they could not die, could they? And he was powerless to do something, he was going to watch his friends drown before his very eyes. He bravely blinked back the tears that were forming and continued to helplessly watch his friends struggle to reach the bank. He didn't even hear Ducky call his name, when he finally turned around she was glaring at him as she commanded him to find Littlefoot's grandpa. This would be their only chance, Grandpa long neck was stronger and more larger than Littlefoot, he would surely be able to save the both of them, if he made it in time. With this new insight, Petrie unflurred his wings and took off.
As he flew, Petrie searched the surrounding land, he saw the other herds including members of the spike tails, the duck bills, the club tail and the long necks! Seeing the long neck herd, Petrie swoop down upon a lower branch, startiling Ali.
"Petrie what's wrong?" she asked.
Petrie had to refrain from blurting outloud, "where is Littlefoot's Grandpa?" he asked.
Ali looked slightly taken aback, "He's over there why?" she nodded in the direction.
The flyer didn't answer and took of towards the two larger long necks feasting upon the tree star tree. Like he did with Ali, he startled the two elderly long necks.
"what is it young one?" asked Grandma.
He was breathless but he explained, soon the whole herd had gathered around them including a horror struck Ali. As he explained the last details, Petrie noticed that there was one less listener. Grandpa long neck had rushed to the scene, which had been intended. Petrie felt pleased with himself but unflurred his wings again and took off followed by the whole long neck herd including Grandma and Ali close below. The anxiety was resting deep within his heart, he was scared for his friends.
Coughing and spluttering she had made it on to dried land. She glanced up to her hero but was shocked and a little surprised to find that her hero was Chomper. Feeling embarrased she turned away to come face to face with Spike. The spike tail gave her a reasuring lick before motioning his head upwards. Cera gulped she knew what would be coming next, why had she ended up in the deep part anyway. She glanced hesitiantly up and gazed up at Ducky who had a frown on her features.
"why?" it was a simple answer the duck bill had asked, but Cera was scared to answer.
Three horns never get scared Cera, after all your the leader. Hiki's words echoed through her mind. Three horns never get scared, she could answer Ducky's question perfectly but what would be the reaction that would be unleashed?
"well the thing is that I erm, well it goes like this..."
Flashback
"come on Cera, your the herd's leader you can do this." Hiki said.
Cera shook her head, "No, no I can't and I wont."
the male three horn sighed softly, "Honestly your our leader you should be able to do this."
"I-I can't swim and I'm scared of water." she quietly revealed.
Hiki laughed bitterly, "Three horns never get scared Cera, after all your the leader. Go on I dare ya!"
Cera never one to back out of a dare grudgingly obliged and soon she was screaming for her life.
End of Flashback
Ducky's frown had increased, her hands on her hips. Chomper and Spike were frowning too.
"Have you even realised that Littlefoot might be dead because of this dare?" raged Ducky.
Cera began to cry, "I'm so sorry, I didn't want to I swear I didn't but I had to prove myself." she contnued to cry harshly before saying, "and what's worse I may have lost my best friend."
suddenly there where cheers from over the bank, they all glanced over except Cera who was crying and saw to their relief that Grandpa long neck had pulled Littlefoot out of the water. Littlefoot was now coughing and spluttering whilst his Grandmother watched over him. Ducky smiled over at Petrie as their eyes met,
"Good job!" she mouthed.
The flyer nodded and returned his attention to his reviving friend.
"see Cera, Littlefoot is alive." she heard Chomper try to reasure the three horn but Cera only cried.
"and y-you saved m-m-me, you didn't have to after the numerous times I've been horrible to you." she said.
Ducky smiled she knew what was going to come next. Chomper looked confused.
"what I mean to say is." Cera looked up at the sharp tooth before continuing, "I'm sorry."
how do you like that, Cera and Chomper friends...
