Meanwhile, Cera and the others were looking for Thunderfoot.
"I don't see them anywhere..." said Cera.
"Maybe Sharptooth eat them?" said Petrie as he landed.
"Poor Thunderfoot..." Ducky sighed. "Poor, poor Thunderfoot..."
The egg thief brothers then suddenly appeared.
"Well, well!" Ozzy smirked. "If it isn't the plant-grazers who spoiled our supper!"
"It is the egg-stealers!" Ducky gasped.
"Oh, what we do?!" Petrie cried out.
"Run!" Cera suggested.
The kids made a run for it.
"Where's my egg, you rotten little sprout-crunchers?!" Ozzy scowled.
Meanwhile, the group was going back to find Chomper.
"I told him to stay put..." said Pebbles as she came back to the group. "Why'd he run off?"
"He must've missed us too much." Kimberly pouted.
Chomper was soon trying to eat a butterfly.
"Chomper, please!" Pebbles told the baby dinosaur. "We don't want to lose you."
Chomper jumped from rock-to-rock, and by Pebbles then hugging her.
"Oh, that's better," Pebbles smiled as she hugged him before scolding him a bit. "You shouldn't worry me like that!"
Chomper nuzzled into Pebbles' shoulder sadly.
"Oh... Oh, well..." Pebbles shrugged before the group heard screaming.
"Help us!" Cera shouted.
"It's the others!" Thunderfoot exclaimed. "They're in danger!"
"Help us!" Petrie shrieked. "Help us!"
"Chomper, stay put and don't move," Pebbles told Chomper as she went to run before giving a firm look. "And I mean it!"
"Hold on, guys!" Thunderfoot added. "I'm coming." he the went to run off with the redheaded cavegirl.
"We're coming!" Pebbles added.
"Now, what did you do with my egg?!" Ozzy demanded to the trapped others.
"Your egg? We didn't do anything to it!" Cera replied. "It hatched!"
"IT HATCHED!?" Ozzy yelped out. "BEFORE I COULD EAT IT, MY EGG HATCHED?!"
"C-Calm down, Ozzy," Strut nervously told his brother. "I-It was just an egg."
"It was not just an egg!" Ozzy sapped before kicking Strut. It was OUR DINNER!" he then turned to the others again. "I'm warning you, you little leaf-lickers. Stay out of my way, or I'll-"
"Hey, Dumb and Dumber!" Pebbles's voice called out util the others looked over to see them.
"Leave my friends alone!" Thunderfoot added.
"Or else you're in for a thrashing!" LJ added.
Skye soon let out a roar which nearly shook the area a bit from her rage.
"What?" Ozzy asked.
"Huh?" Strut added.
"Thunderfoot!" Cera called out. "And the others!"
"Thaks, Cera." Pebbles deadpanned from that.
"We're saved!" Ducky beamed.
"Without Bamm-Bamm, we'll hafta hold these bozos off ourselves!" LJ remarked. "CRANKSHAFT: MAXIMIZE!"
"Just what I can't stand!" Ozzy complained. "A bunch of bossy weed-whackers!"
"The only one about to get whacked is YOU!" Crankshaft roared as he sprinted towards the duo.
"What the...?" Skye muttered a bit about "Crankshaft".
"I just thought it'd be a cool name." LJ shrugged from inside.
Skye shrugged back before growling at Ozzy and Strut.
"I'm gonna give you a Yabba-Dabba-Doozy!" Pebbles threatened.
Crankshaft lunged and swiped at Ozzy and Strut, knocking them on their rear ends. "And I'll do way worse to ya if you come back!" he growled.
Ozzy and Strut soon took that as their cue to go.
"Go on! Get!" Skye shook her fist.
"And don't think of coming back!" Pebbles added as she hit them with a few rocks.
It seemed to get worse for Ozzy and Strut as a shadow came out, resembling a certain big dinosaur.
"SHARPTOOTH!" The young dinosaurs cried out in a panic.
"Sharptooth!" Ozzy and Strut yelped as they ran for their lives.
Pebbles tried to look calm as the shadow startled her a little.
"Yeah, you better run!" Skye snarled at Ozzy and Strut.'
"Good..." LJ sighed. "They're gone."
The shadow soon came out once the thief brothers were both gone, revealing to be just little Chomper even though Thunderfoot and his fellow dinosaurs were scared still, not seeing him at first.
"Heh... I guess shadows can be a little terrifying." Bamm-Bamm commented once he saw that it was just Chomper.
"Hey, Bamm-Bamm," waved Raul. "Great timing!"
"Hey, gang," Bamm-Bamm said. "Looks like there's been a huuuuge misunderstanding over here."
"Heh, a bit with Chomper." Pebbles replied sheepishly.
"You could say that." Jenny replied.
"Hmm... Chomper!" Thunderfoot said as he looked over to see the young "Sharptooth". "Oh, Chomper, you saved us."
"He sure did!" LJ smiled proudly.
"Chomper?" Cera asked quizzically. "What's a Chomper?"
"It is his name, silly." Ducky giggled.
"See, you guys?" Thunderfoot smiled to his fellow dinosaurs. "Chomper's a nice Sharptooth. He would never hurt us."
Chomper then ran up to Cera happily.
"Thanks, Chomper." Cera smiled to him.
"You are so nice, Chomper." Ducky added.
"Me like you, Chomper." Petrie beamed.
"That's my boy!" LJ grinned.
Everyone soon began to accept Chomper as part of their herd.
"Chomper, this is your Aunt Cera, your Uncles Spike and Petrie, and your Aunt Ducky." Thunderfoot introduced.
"Hi, Chomper," Ducky piped up as she hugged Chomper. "I think you're very cute."
"Yep!" Jenny agreed as Chomper smiled.
The others smiled as Chomper seemed to become a new member of the herd.
"Aaagh!" Cera soon cried out. "He bit me! Chomper bit me!"
"Well, he didn't mean it." Thunderfoot said to her.
"You call this not meaning it?" Cera glared, showing that Chomper had bitten her on her tail.
"He's a little kid," replied LJ. "He doesn't know any better!"
"Oh, Chomper!" sighed Thunderfoot. Chomper let go of Cera's tail as she walked to Thunderfoot.
"A Sharptooth can never be one of us. Never!" glared Cera.
"Don't say that!" protested Kimberly.
"You know it's true," said Cera. "He has to go."
"No, he stays!" protested Thunderfoot, as Cera shoved him.
"He GOES!" shouted Cera.
All the others could do was watch as the two went back and forth a bit violently.
"He stays!"
"He goes!"
"He stays!"
"Chomper, you did not mean to bit Cera, did you, huh? Huh?" Ducky asked the baby dinosaur.
Chomper let out a small, soft growl.
"He's a baby, so he didn't know any better." Chrissy replied.
"Yeah, we've all done things like that as babies," remarked Zofia. "As if you were any different."
But Cera stood firm. "We can't keep him, and that's final!"
"But, but, Cera, he's just a baby. He needs us." explained Thunderfoot.
"Mm, he need me too much." said Petrie, as Chomper was about to gnaw on him.
Ducky stepped between them. "No, Chomper. You cannot eat Petrie," she said. "No! Huh? I said 'no', just like my parents! Oh, no, no, no, no." she walked backwards.
"Oh, Ducky, it'll be okay." Kimberly softly told her best friend of the dinosaurs.
"Don't you see, Chomper?" Thunderfoot coaxed to the youngest. "You can't be a Sharptooth. Sharpteeth aren't allowed in this valley.
Chomper began to walk away, backwards.
"Wait, Chomper!" Zofia cried out. "Don't go!"
"Guys, maybe before you bring Chomper back, you should think about it," Ducky told them. "Chomper is different than us. He is."
"So what if he's different?" Zofia replied. "We're all different, but we're still all friends. At least... I thought we were."
"Besides... I still consider him my son," added LJ. "And as his adoptive father, I have to look out for his well-being."
"The others are right," Thunderfoot agreed before running off. "We should at least follow him to make sure he doesn't get hurt."
And so they headed off after Chomper. Chomper had soon walked away to a volcano, as two adult Sharpteeth appeared, roaring, then they both walked down. Ozzy and Strut then tried to climb up.
"Next time we look before we leap." Ozzy advised.
"You think the Sharptooth finished those kids off, Ozzy?" Strut asked his brother.
"I hope so," Ozzy replied. "Now, let's get ourselves an egg, and eat!"
And so they approached the volcano as well.
"Chomper!" called Martin and Jenny.
"Where are you?" called Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm.
"Chomper!" called Petrie
"I am tired. I am, I am." sighed Ducky.
"We can't stop, Ducky, not until we find Chomper." said Thunderfoot.
"Maybe we stop, Chomper find us." suggested Petrie.
Cera snorted. "Well, I don't care if we find him or not!"
"No one's making you come, Cera." retorted Thunderfoot.
"So you can take your bad attitude and leave." added LJ.
"Hmph! Don't make me eat you!" Cera huffed to the humans.
"Three-Horns don't eat meat, genius." Skye scoffed, flying in the sky with Petrie with her pterodactyl wings.
"Oh, yeah? Like you know so much about dinosaurs?" Cera challenged.
"I know a very big amount from the Extreme Dinosaurs." Skye smirked.
"More than you, Horn-Head." LJ snorted.
Cera let out a bit of a growl.
"Man, Spike's not nearly as bad as she is..." Skye muttered.
"Sorry about that, Skye." Akito replied.
"Yeah, Cera is kind of hardheaded," replied LJ. "And species-ist, but then again, she gets it from her dad."
Spike soon ate some leaves just as Ducky heard a stomach grumbling.
"My tummy's making its hungry noise." Ducky pouted.
"My tummy talk too," Petrie replied. "It say, 'Feed me'."
"I'm hungry too!" Cera added. "Let's go home."
"Cera, Ducky! Petrie, Spike!" Thunderfoot gasped as he saw something. "Come quick! It's Chomper. He's on the Smoking Mountain."
"You mean that volcano?" Skye replied.
"Different time, different terms," shrugged Dib. "You get used to it... I know I did."
"I'm gonna need to take a quick break anyway," Skye said, sitting down and letting her wings go away. "I literally just flew through the Great Valley, and BOY! Are my wings tired!"
"Can you control your dinosaur powers?" Jenny asked.
"I'm working on it anyway," Skye replied. "Trust me, it's not as easy as it looks."
"Chomper could fall into the gurgling pit!" exclaimed Ducky. "He could!"
"Come back, Chomper! It's too dangerous!" shouted Thunderfoot.
"Guess we'll hafta hoof it then," replied LJ. "Hopefully by the time the third or fourth movie rolls around, you'll have better control."
"Huh? Movie?" Thunderfoot asked.
"Uh, nothing, nothing." Zofia chuckled sheepishly.
Skye took a deep breath and soon went to go after Chomper.
"Careful, Skye!" Akito warned.
Ozzy and Strut soon came out before finding a nest with a very big bunch of eggs.
"Ah, lunch is served." Ozzy licked his lips eagerly as he and Strut came to collect the eggs.
"Hang on, Chomper; I'm coming!" Skye's voice called out, startling the two to fall over the edge as she flew by again with her pterodactyl wings.
"COWABUNGA!" LJ exclaimed as he and the others raced down as well.
"We're coming, Chomper!" shouted Bamm-Bamm.
"Don't move, Chomper!" added Pebbles.
Strut pointed. "It's those kids again, Ozzy." he then said.
"If they scream any louder, they're going to give us away..." Ozzy growled.
It was too late for that as a mother pterodactyl hissed and flew out for her nest. The brothers cried out and soon ran off in a panic away from the angry mother. They found a place to hide in, but got stuck for a few moments before they squeezed in, narrowly avoiding her.
"Those kids have ruined our lunch for the last time!" Ozzy growled from inside their hiding place.
Chomper was trying to eat a dragonfly, as the others looked for him.
"I feel like he could be right under our noses." Kimberly commented.
"It wouldn't surprise me." Zofia replied.
"Look!" Ducky soon pointed out.
"What is it?" Martin asked. "Is it Chomper?"
"No, I think it might be worse!" Ducky replied.
They soon saw that the volcano was still erupting.
"I think we better look for Chomper someplace safer..." said Thunderfoot.
"Leaving so soon? But you haven't had your baths." said Ozzy menacingly.
"Me no need bath," protested Petrie. "Me take one just yesterday!"
Cera snorted. "You smelly ol' egg-stealers better watch it, because it just so happens we're friends, with a very mean Sharptooth."
"Sharpteeth don't have friends!" remarked Ozzy.
"This one does!" replied LJ.
"If a Sharptooth's your friend, prove it." retorted Ozzy.
"But, Ozzy, we saw a Sharptooth shadow," said Strut. "That's good enough for me."
"Boy, are you dumb! That scary shadow wasn't a big Sharptooth," smirked Cera. "It was just a baby."
"Way to go, blabber-mouth." retorted LJ.
"I mean, oops." Cera then said sheepishly.
The volcano continued to erupt.
"Time's up, little ones!" Ozzy mocked.
The volcano soon erupted completely, with fireballs flying, then they all screamed, with a fireball bouncing at Ozzy and Strut, rolling down.
"Well, that was lucky for us." Skye commented.
"Chomper!" Thunderfoot cried out. "Chomper, where are you?!"
"Come on! Hurry!" Ducky suggested as they didn't have much time here.
They soon began to run off together as the lava rolled down with them all screaming with lava rolling down. Ducky then got off of Spike, falling to the ground, then screamed, with the lava rolling down as Spike soon did the same as his sister.
"Come on!" Thunderfoot told the others as he found something. "This way!"
The group quickly ran after him.
"Oh, Chomper..." Skye sighed a bit. "I guess running after little tykes really is exhausting for Mom, Dad, and Aunt Luna."
"Yeah," agreed Raul. "For someone who's only been alive for an hour, he sure is hyperactive!"
"He's like that little girl who has a dog who's a better babysitter than her own parents." Zofia remarked, trying to avoid lava in the process.
LJ gave her a confused glance. "Wait, who?"
"I think her name is Mindy." Zofia replied.
"Ohhhh..." said LJ. "And the dog's name is Buttons, right?"
Zofia nodded to that. "Yes... I'd adopt that little girl and her dog too if I could." she then said a bit emotionally.
LJ gently patted her on the head. "That's real sweet of ya, sis... Admirable, too." he replied.
"I do my best," Zofia replied. "Though hopefully, it's not as crazy as looking after Chomper here."
It was now getting too dangerous to be around the volcano.
"We have to get out of here." Akito told the others.
"But what about Chomper?" Jenny asked.
"I'll see if I can go find him, you guys should get to safety." Akito suggested.
"Well... If you say so." shrugged LJ as he and the others ran to safety.
