CHAPTER SEVEN: BORED LITTLEFOOT
Littlefoot was feeling bored. A small Earthshake had damaged a lot of Flyers homes. Luckily, Petrie's had not been among them. Still, Petrie and his family had gone and helped out with their Flyer friends. Hence, Petrie was busy all that day and the next.
Cera was also unavailable. Wanting to show how great Threehorns could be, she had tried to smash many rocks to help out and make herself look good. However, she had met her match and was out of action for the rest of the day and the next due to a splitting headache.
Ducky and Spike both had the cold. They sneezed a lot and he didn't want to get sick too. So he was very bored. He recalled how, last time he had been like this, he had met Mo and made a new friend. But Mo was in the Big Water right now and couldn't play with him.
"I'm bored. All my friends are busy." said Littlefoot. He couldn't help with the Flyers as most of the problem areas were too high up. The ones that weren't were now inaccessible to all but Flyers due to her having knocked over many rocks, blocking the path to the area. Topps and Tria were helping, as they could handle the rocks. Littlefoot, however, had been advised not to help.
"There is a whole wide world out there Littlefoot. You can find more friends." said Grandma Longneck.
"I can't find any at the moment." said Littlefoot.
"Don't get too down." said Grandpa Longneck.
Littlefoot may have been bored at not having friends to play with, but he wasn't the only one. Ptero was fast losing his patience at never being able to leave home without his mother.
