Chapter Two: In Another World
Back in the prehistoric world, Littlefoot and his family were trying to find something to eat. One of his grandparents were currently bringing a branch down to him and placed it on the ground next to him. Littlefoot grimaced at the sight of how bare the branch was. As he noticed that there was hardly anything on the other trees, Littlefoot looked up to his mother and asked, "Mother, is this all there is to eat?"
"Oh." His mother sighed as she looked about. She sounded a little worried as she said, "I'm sorry, my dear." Then she explained, "The land has been changing. That is why we must walk as much as can each day…"
She would have continued to walk when the air around her and her family began to pick up. All four of them looked about as dark clouds began to mysteriously roll in overhead. Series of lightning flashed over head as something began to happen. A golden sphere of light appeared in the middle of their clearing. All four Longnecks gasped at the sight. Littlefoot had to squint his eyes to see what was happening, but he could barely make out four shapes in the middle of the sphere.

Those same clouds were over Cera's small herd as another golden sphere of light appeared before them. The little, yellow Threehorn stood behind her father's foreleg as she stared at the sphere. She could barely make out whatever it was standing there. She could tell that it was caring something and had two large wings on its back.
\_|_/
In an empty plain, another golden sphere of light appeared. The being from inside yelled as they fell to the ground. Quickly standing up, the figure placed their hand against their ear and suddenly a pinging sound blurted out. Knowing where to go, the figure zoomed towards the source.

In a small forest, near the outskirts of a withering, grassy plain, a golden sphere of light appeared. When it dissipated, the figure looked before noticing themselves about before shifting their form. They changed from a narrow-top headed creature to one that was more rounded and shrunk down in size. The figure was about to move on when it sensed something within the grass. It moved in to see what it was. When he reached a very small clearing within the tall grass, the being's eyes widened.
\_|_/
The air started to swirl around the golden sphere as Littlefoot and his family continued to watch. When it ended, they saw four small creatures unlike anything they had ever seen before. There were three boys and a girl as they could tell by their smells. One of the boys had blue, red skin over most of its body while its face was pink looking. The boy next to him was mostly black and grey skinned all over with a little yellow around its waist, and the only different color was around its face. The other boy was black and green over his body and his face was brown and had something odd over his eyes. The girl had long fur on her head while most of her skin was pink. She did have some yellow, red, white and blue skin on her torso and feet. Two shiny things were attached to her arms and something long and golden was attached to her hips. All four of the creatures were on their paws and knees, and they were looking down to the ground.
"What are they, Mother?" A curious Littlefoot asked as he stepped a little closer. The older Longneck shook her head while saying, "I don't know, Little One." She took a good look at each of them and said, "But I think we're about to find out."
Kid Superman, Kid Batman, Kid Green Lantern and Kid Wonder Woman all felt a little woozy from their ordeal with Mordred as they tried to stand up. As they rose on their feet, Kid Superman looked to his friends and asked, "Is everyone alright?"
"I feel a little funny," Kid Wonder Woman said, "but other than that, I'm fine."
"Same." Both Kid Batman and Kid Green Lantern said at the same time. The ground underneath them started to tremble as heavy footfalls could be heard behind them. All four child transformed super heroes looked back and gasped from the sight of living dinosaurs standing behind them. They were at a loss for words as they couldn't describe what a sight this was. They looked down to the adult dinosaur's feet and saw a smaller Apatosaur standing there. Kid Wonder Woman smiled as she walked up and said, "Hey, there little guy."
"Actually, my name's Littlefoot." The little dinosaur said, once again surprising the group. Kid Superman looked to the other two and said, "Is this a little weird to anyone else?"
"Somewhat." Kid Batman said with a shrug of his shoulders. Kid Green Lantern looked to him and asked, "How is it-" But then he stopped as he remembered, "Never mind. I just remembered all that we've seen."
"Excuse me?" An older voice from above said. They all looked up to see one of the grey scaled Apatosaurs lowering their heads down. They found out she was female by her voice, "But may I ask who and what you all are?"
"My name's Diana." Kid Wonder Woman introduced. Gesturing to the boys she said, "And these are my friends, Bruce, Clark and John."
"Huh." Littlefoot said as he slightly thought that their names were strange, but didn't say anything to not be rude. Batman walked up to them and said, "As for what we are, we are called man." Then he looked to Diana and said, "And woman."
"Interesting." The older male said. Shaking his head he said, "I've seen plenty of things back in my day, but I'd never thought to live to see this."
"Um, could you all excuse us, please?" Kid Superman asked before all four heroes turned to each other. Making sure to keep their voices down, he then asked, "Okay, were are we?"
"I'd say Jurassic Park, but that might be a little off." Kid Green Lantern lightly joked. Kid Batman then deduced, "Based on Mordred's spell, we've been whisked away to a time way before civilization started."
"And what about the talking dinosaurs?" Kid Wonder Woman asked, still confused about that part. Kid Batman then said, "Probably some kind of alternate world to where we can understand them." He looked between them and said, "But that's my best guess."
"Here's a really good question," Kid Green Lantern said, "how are we gonna get back and stop the kid and return all the adults to our world?"
"We'll come to that in time." Kid Superman told them. Then he added, "But right now we need to focus on the moment." Glancing back to the dinosaur family he said, "Maybe they have places named and we can determine our location."
"I highly doubt it." Kid Batman said, but then he shrugged and said, "But I guess it wouldn't hurt to try."
The other two nodded and they all turned back to the family. Kid Superman then asked, "Where exactly is here?"
"The Mysterious Beyond is greatly vast." The older male told him, "No one knows how big the world truly is."
"Maybe not to them." Kid Green Lantern muttered. Kid Wonder Woman slightly glares at him while roughly nudging him in the arm. The ring wielder yelped in pain while rubbing his arm. Kid Batman then stepped forward and asked, "So where are you all heading."
"To a place where we can be safe." The younger female Apatosaur said. Looking to the sun she said, "We must continue to follow the Bright Circle as it sets in order to reach the Great Valley."
"The Great Valley?" Kid Green Lantern quietly asked. Littlefoot looked to the adults and asked, "Should they come with us?"
His mother, grandmother and grandfather all looked to each other. The grandfather tilted his head as he said, "It wouldn't hurt."
"Plus, they're children." The grandmother added, "It would be awful to leave such young ones unattended."
"Then it's settled." Littlefoot's mother nodded. She looked down to the four heroes and asked, "Would you like to accompany us on our journey?"
'Well…" Diana started to say, unsure if they should. Clark was also somewhat reluctant as he added, "We don't want to be a burden on you."
"Oh, you won't be a burden." She said. Then she added, "Plus, we can all look out for each other on the way."
"Then it's settled." Bruce said as he looked to his friends, "We'll go with them."
The family of Apatosaurs started to move about again as they looked for food. Littlefoot moved back to the branch and bit at the branch. Then with a tug, he was able to pull it off and tried to eat it. But the twigs hurt a little as he tried to chew them up. This confused all the kid versions of the super heroes. Kid Superman came over to him and asked, "Uh, why are you all eating the wood from these trees."
"Because there is barely any food here in the Mysterious Beyond." The grandfather explained. He looked down to the Kryptonian and said, "That's why we're heading to the Great Valley."
"Oh." Kid Superman said. The other three moved about to see if they could help. Littlefoot's attention was diverted when his mother said, "Littlefoot, quickly, come here."
Both Littlefoot and Kid Superman walked over to the little Longneck's mother. They looked up as she gestured with her head, "Look, up there."
All three of them looked up to see a lone leaf in the shape of a five pointed star hanging on a branch. The dew of the day dripped off of it as she said, "A tree star."
"What's so special about it?" Kid Superman asked with a quirked brow. Littlefoot's mother looked down to him and said, "Even though they're really common in most places, to find one now is really rare, considering the circumstances."
"Plus, they're really tasty." Littlefoot added with a quick lick of his lips. His mother nodded and she said, "It is a very special leaf indeed."
The dew continued to drop off of the leaf as Littlefoot's mother reached up to grab it for him. But a sudden breeze caused the leaf to snap off of its stem, caused much more dew and it started to get carried away by the wind. Littlefoot groaned in disappointment and Kid Superman saw the distress on his new friend's face. With a smile, Kid Superman lifted off the ground, surprising both Longnecks and flew after it. As he was catching up to the leaf, Kid Superman found that he wasn't going as fast as he would have liked. When he reached the tree star leaf he grabbed it and flew back to the ground. Kid Superman looked to the middle of the leaf as the rest of the dew collected into the middle of it. The Kryptonian handed the leaf to the young Longneck and Littlefoot took it with a smile. Laying the tree star down, Littlefoot began to rub his head against it as his mother said, "It'll help you to grow strong. Where we are going there are so many of these leaves."
Kid Superman smiled to the sight of Littlefoot enjoying his gift. The little Longneck turned onto his back with a giggle and playfully kicked the tree star up into the air. After a few more bats with his paws, Littlefoot sat up and let the leaf fall unto his head. While he was enjoying his gift, Superman turned to the others as they looked around. Bruce and Diana were sticking close to the grandparents while John looked about to see if there was anything. Moving over to them, Clark said, "Hey, can I talk to you guys for a second."
"Sure." Wonder Woman said before her and Bruce walked over to a spot behind Clark. John looked back and saw that they were meeting underneath a tree. He quickly walked over and said, "What's up?"
"Something's wrong with my powers." Clark told them. They gave him questioning looks and he explained, "When I went to get something for Littlefoot, I used by flight and super speed, but I could feel that it wasn't at its normal speed."
"Care to test one of your other super powers." Bruce asked. Clark quickly thought about which power to use, since it could scare the dinosaur family. Then he thought of his breath ability. Taking in a quick breath, Kid Superman blew against the tree closest to him and it started to slightly freeze, but it didn't freeze all the way and even started to melt. Bruce then remembered, "Before getting zapped here, I do recall Mordred saying in his spell for us to be stripped to only half strength."
"So, it's like me under a somewhat red sun?" Kid Superman asked with a quirked brow. Kid Batman nodded and then said while looking between the two of them, "I'm guessing that it's the same for you two."
"So I guess the only one who's at one hundred percent is you, Bruce." Kid Green Lantern pointed out. Kid Batman then said, "Not entirely, I've only got a limited amount of resources within my belt. Not to mention the fact that since we're still in kid bodies, and it won't be long before we get hungry fast."
All three of the others looked a little worried considering that they didn't know how to tell their new friends about a small problem. They were startled when a voice said from behind Diana, "What'cha guys doing?"
They looked back to see Littlefoot standing there with the tree star leaf on his back. The four heroes looked to each other before Clark said, "Oh, we were just talking amongst ourselves."
"Oh." Littlefoot said. They were all caught off guard when Littlefoot's mother said, "Come along, young ones."
Littlefoot, Clark, Bruce, John and Diana all moved after the grown up dinosaurs. As they walked out into a plain, Bruce looked up to the bigger Apatosaur and asked, "So what can you tell us about this Great Valley place?"
"Well, the Great Valley is filled with green food," She started, and looked down to Littlefoot as she said, "More food than you could hope to eat, Littlefoot. More water than you could ever drink…" She sounded hopeful yet happy and she said, "where will live with our own kind. And we'll all be safe."
"It truly is a wonderful, beautiful place, where we'll live happily…" She said with a great big smile. Diana then thought of home and said, "Sounds like it could be a paradise."
"That is what some call it." Littlefoot's grandfather said. Littlefoot placed the tree star leaf on the ground and curiously asked, "When we will get there?"
"The Bright Circle must pass over us many times." His mother told him as they walked on. He picked his gift back up and she said, "And we must follow it each day to where it touches the ground."
"Did she just call the sun the bright circle?" John asked the others. Bruce looked to him and said, "They must have different names for almost everything. I think it would be best if we went along with it and not challenge it."
"Works for me." Clark said with slight shrug. Diana then said, "I'm cool with it."
Tossing the tree star leaf into the air, Littlefoot let it fall onto his back before asking, "Have you ever seen the Great Valley?"
This caused his mother to stop in her tracks, bring her head around to him and say, "No."
"Well, how do you know it's really there?" Littlefoot asked as he walked closer. Diana walked up to him and said, "Sometimes you just gotta believe in something, even if it seems unlikely."
"Hm. She's right." His mother told him, "Some things you see with your eyes," a kind grin grew on her face as she said, "others you see with your heart."
Littlefoot sighed as it didn't make much sense to him. He walked a little closer, causing his leaf to fall off while he said, "I don't understand, Mother."
"You will, my son." She said as she lightly nudges her head against his. He smiles as he looks into her eyes and she repeats, "You will."
Littlefoot then looked down to his tree star leaf and sniffed it. It smelled really good to him and was about to eat it. But the sound of giggling caught his attention. Turning his head to the sound, Littlefoot walked towards the source. Seeing their friend walking away, the four heroes ran after him and John called out, "Hey, Littlefoot, wait up!"
Littlefoot walked through a small field of tall grass and poked his head through. He and the other four heard the Longneck's mother call out, "Littlefoot, kids, don't you all wander too far off."
"We won't." Diana said as she looked to the older dinosaur. Looking to Bruce she said, "She kind of reminds me of my mother when I was really this age."
Bruce didn't say anything as it was still a sore subject to him. Littlefoot poked his head through the rest of the tall grass and stared in wander as he saw a group of Threehorns. The little yellow dinosaur rammed against the snout of her parent and fell onto her backside. She was about to do it again when she noticed a blue bug landing next to her. The Threehorn prepared to charge at it while Littlefoot watched with interest. The Threehorn gave a bellow as she chased after the bug. The bug flew over a few rocks and the Threehorn was able to bash her way through them. The bug landed on another rock and flew off before she rammed against it. The blue bug then landed on a rock to her left. The Threehorn turned to it and quickly jumped at the bug. But all she succeeded in doing was smashing into the rock. The bug landed on top of another rock and the Threehorn rammed right into it, unable to break it. Getting back up and shaking her head, the Threehorn glared at the bug before starting to stand up. Littlefoot then called out, "Hey!"
If she heard Littlefoot, she didn't acknowledge him as she had her sights on the bug. As she was eye level with it, the Threehorn licked her lips as if she were about to eat it. But before she could do anything to the bug, it turned its back on her and sprayed her in the face. Clark, Diana, Bruce and John joined Littlefoot and parted the tall grass to see what was going on. They watched as the Threehorn shook the juices off of her face and was about to chase after the bug when a voice said to her, "If it makes you feel any better, Cera, I think you really taught those rocks a lesson."
The yellow Threehorn, Littlefoot and the four heroes looked up to see a figure drop out of the sky. While Littlefoot looked amazed by the newcomer, Kid Superman, Kid Batman, Kid Wonder Woman and Kid Green Lantern's jaws dropped at the sight of: Shayera Hol!
