Ali lowered her head to get some water. She gulped down the water provided from Roaring Falls, the main source of the Great Valley. It had been three months since the problem of the Great Valley was fixed. After a month of water returning to the valley, green food decorated the valley as it used to be. Mr. Threehorn led everyone back home once he got the report from a flier that everything had returned to normal in the Great Valley.

Ali had decided to stay. For her, there was no point in returning to Green Valley. She knew Rhett and Janet were there. Just seeing them would remind her of her future with the male that saved the Great Valley residents. Through Littlefoot's ambitions, things restored in the Great Valley, and he ended up sacrificing his life. If only she had gotten there sooner… She felt she owed Littlefoot for her safety. She decided to stay with the Great Valley folks. After all, she was going to stay with them if the two longnecks both prevailed.

Ali lifted her head and looked up in the sky. A couple of clouds sailed across the blue sky as the wind slightly brushed against her scales. She sighed. It had also been three months since Littlefoot's death. Ali dropped her head from the sky and turned around to take a stroll across the valley.

The same weather as in the Great Valley was in Green Valley. This longneck-populated valley replicated the Great Valley in some ways, but everything seemed customized for a longneck. Among the longneck population was a lass named Janet. Well, she wasn't a single lass, for she was dating now. The steel blue longneck with hazel eyes sighed as she laid down. Her boyfriend, a silver grey longneck with emerald-colored eyes, sat next to her, munching on the low-branched treestars near him. Janet had met this male, Jett, two days after Janet and Rhett had returned to Green Valley. Not only was he handsome, but he was brave, caring, and considerate. Jett somewhat reminded her of Littlefoot, but his personality differed from Littlefoot in some parts. She always felt horrible when she compared him to Littlefoot, but that was the closest dinosaur Jett reminded Janet of a few times. Jett was still Jett though, and it was this side that Janet quickly adored and took a liking to.

"Nice day, huh, Janet?"

Janet turned her head back a little, enough to see Jett's face. She smiled.

"It is. It's a day like this that makes me be grateful for the life I have. I've seen too many bad ones."

Jett knew about Janet's past, and she knew his. After a month of dating, it was kind of hard not to talk about the past. Jett reached over to Janet by using his neck and rubbed her cheek with his nose. She welcomed the affection.

"Yeah. We are lucky and grateful for that luck."

Janet smiled. Her thoughts soon trailed off as she spotted Rhett in the clearing as well. Janet and Jett had been sitting in the shaded area that was near a portion of the outline of the large, grassy clearing. Rhett was walking with light greenish longneck with violet eyes. The female he was with was one he met only two weeks ago. With Ali gone, Rhett just wandered around Green Valley along. Usually, he would talk to Janet, but it soon dwindled down to once in a while when Janet met Jett. Now, how they met was one Janet found herself chuckling about. Rhett, bragging to two longnecks how he fought against a sharptooth and survived, accidentally whipped this girl in the head. The story he told was true, as he did fight off a sharptooth during the return to Green Valley. He just was a clumsy goofball and didn't know where he was swinging his tail. Of course, the girl fumed in anger, and the two bystanders got to see Rhett being beaten up by this female longneck. The next day, Rhett apologized to her by bringing her a tree sweet, and they soon became friends afterwards, evolving their friendship into something much greater. It seemed he didn't miss Ali.

Just thinking of Ali made Janet remembered what they went through, just for Littlefoot's affection. He denied them both, but Ali was persistence. She went off in the night in search for Littlefoot. It was the next day when Rhett and Janet discovered Ali was missing. Rhett had asked Janet if she was going to follow. It was then Janet realized that Ali would always be there for him, even though he had wandered off alone, breaking her heart. The reason was simple: Ali loved Littlefoot. Ever since that day, Janet considered Ali a friend more than a rival. But she hadn't heard word of Ali or Littlefoot. It had been a couple of months, and communications were disconnected. Janet had thought the two longnecks would return to Green Valley, but they had probably chosen to stay in the Great Valley. Janet sighed.

"What's up?"

Janet turned towards Jett when she heard the sound of his deep voice. Janet smiled.

"Jett, do you know of the Great Valley?"

A herd of longnecks had entered the Great Valley. The Great Valley residents gathered around them as Ali introduced herself to them. It was only fitting she would talk to them. After all, she was the only longneck as a Great Valley resident.

"Welcome to the Great Valley."

The leader appeared to be a dark brown longneck with blue eyes. He appeared to be Ali's age. In fact, he might have been a little older. The leader smiled.

"Thank you. My name is Zank, and I'm the leader of the herd."

Ali already knew that. She wondered why he brought it up. It was probably to impress her. She shrugged it off.

"Well, Zank, your herd can rest here if needed."

"Thank you."

"If you or your herd has any questions, just ask."

Zank nodded. Ali moved aside to let Zark pass. As he did, he winked at Ali. The herd passed Ali and the rest of the residents of the Great Valley. The Great Valley dinosaurs slowly returned to what they were doing before Zank and his herd appeared. Ali just slightly shook her head. Cera walked up to her.

"Hey Ali."

Ali looked down and saw the threehorn with grown, rounded horns.

"Oh, hi Cera."

"The others and I are going to the Tall Trees if you want to come."

Ali smiled.

"Thank you, Cera. I might be running a little late."

"That's okay. We might be there all day or somewhere near."

Ali nodded. Cera smiled and left. Ali started walking in the other direction. She was going to eat first before she would meet the others. Ali disappeared from the clearing into a small forest with the maple treestars she liked.

She walked into the forest and didn't get far to enjoy the treestars. She was still shrouded from view from those outside this grouping of trees. Ali reached up for the leaves and ripped some out. She grinded them and gulped them down.

"Hey."

Ali looked to her side. She saw the smiling Zank. She greeted him.

"Hi."

"I noticed that you smiled when I winked."

"Oh, that. I was just trying to be polite."

"That's what they all say. Listen. A single, beautiful longneck like you shouldn't go unchecked."

Ali sighed.

"Listen Zank. I'm not interested in any illusion you have."

Zank smiled, shaking his head slowly. Ali didn't like his wicked smile.

"You don't get it, do you Dear?"

Ali was scared and crept out. The 'Dear' part made Ali realize he was determined, and he was going to satisfy himself no matter what. Ali cleared her throat.

"I'm going to go now."

Ali started to walk, but it soon turned into a jog. However, Zank was prepared for this. He reached out for her tail with his tail and grabbed it. Ali stopped dead.

"Where are you going, Sweat Treat?"

Ali faced Zank with watery eyes. Her face told that she was completely frighten now, but Zank just had a grin on his face. He didn't care of how Ali felt. He just wanted...that.

"Please don't," she pleaded.

"We're going to have some fun."

"Please don't."

"And then you want to come with the herd because of the fun we had."

"Please, don't!"

"Come he-"

A force perpendicular to Zank rammed him over and down. Zank had let go of Ali's tail as he fell over to the ground. Zank lifted his head from the ground and shook it. He looked at the dinosaur that rammed him down. Ali did too, and all emotions flooded throughout her. She was grateful, but she was more in shock. Ali's savior was a longneck a little taller than Ali. He was a very brown Apatosaurus with brown-reddish eyes. Ali had knew him once before he died, but he was standing there in her presence. She had watched him died, but by some miracle he lived. Zank narrowed his eyes.

"What's your deal, Littlefoot!"
