This LBT one I'm gonna try and make funnier. (I think, in a future chapter, I'm gonna have Littlefoot and Rhett have a tooting contest, which will cause an avalanche, must be all them red Treestars they ate
, and Ali will comment about "Men!'. I'm in a giddy mood that I'm often not in, due to little sleep.)
CHAPTER ONE: SNEAKING OUT
"Are you nuts?!" groaned Cera when Littlefoot told Cera what he was going to do.
"She helped me with Grandpa. It's the least I can do." said Littlefoot.
"She can do fine alone without you. It's not like you're a grownup after all." grumbled Cera.
"Yeah, that won't come around for some cold times. Not till I'm 25 anyway." sighed Littlefoot.
"I doubt you'll ever grow up!" laughed Cera.
"Well, who helped you get across the Mysterious Beyond and find the Great Valley? Who helped fend off those Egg Stealers? Who helped restore the water to the Great Valley? " asked Littlefoot.
"You. But so?" said Cera, doubtful.
"Yes, I did. I don't mean to brag, but I've been around the block before." said Littlefoot.
"But there will be Sharpteeth out there. There will. There will." piped in Ducky.
"Been there. Done that." said Littlefoot.
He had always taken risks and been a daredevil, but now that he was in his teens, it was even worse. He'd punished by his grandparents for it. He didn't want to think about the lecture and punishment he was going to get for his sneaking away at dawn. But, Ali had helped him before. It was only fair.
"Did Ali even ask you?" Cera inquired.
"Er, not exactly. But..." said Littlefoot nervously.
"And do you think the Old One is just gonna let you go with her and sneak out?" asked Cera, smirking.
"No, that's why I'm going to be in the Mysterious Beyond by the time they leave. I'll just sneak behind them. Kinda like you did with me when I went away to the crater." said Littlefoot.
"I don't think that's a good idea." came a voice. It was Guido.
"Guido, please don't tell!" begged Littlefoot.
"I'm not telling. But you're going to get your grandparents worried sick and you might get lost out there. The ground sparkles are really blowing." said Guido.
"I'm not asking any of you to go with me." grumbled Littlefoot.
"Sure, we'll stay here. You can just go and get yourself killed! Yes, of course we're coming." said Cera.
"Me too." said Petrie.
"I will go with you Littlefoot. Yep, yep, yep, I will." Ducky said.
Spike nodded.
"Ok fine. I'm probably going to regret this, but, yeah, count me in." said Guido.
Littlefoot and his friends went to bed early. "Have you ever seen them go to bed early like that?" Grandpa Longneck asked Topps.
"Not since they were little." said Topps, confused himself.
A few hours before dawn, the kids got up. They snuck out into the Mysterious Beyond. It sure was cold out here. And the snow really was blowing. They could easily sneak up on Ali's group and not be seen.
"I hope a Sharptooth doesn't come on us and think we're a tasty popsicle." said Cera, shivering.
At last, the Old One's group left. They followed behind, unseen. They were off adventuring once more.
