Next post starts,I am far to lazy

OOC: I have a life! :anger
Grandma Longneck sighed. "He ran off again." She almost chuckled at that. Really, they should be getting used to THAT by now.
Her mate actually chuckled, thinking the exact same thing. "Are we going to wait until he comes back on his own, or are we going to look?"
"Let's look." She suggested. "It's been a while, isn't it?"
"Definitely." He rose to his feet.
-
OOC: You do? Where can I download one?
A small female longneck stepped inside the valley with her teenaged companion. Nahla gazed around the valley shyly.
~
Littlefoot was loping through the valley looking for adventure,he laughed as he chased after a buzzer.
-
Zimba looked down at Nahla "It'll be ok" he said walking in further trying to keep his head lowered not noticing he was walking up to Grandma and Grandpa.
OOC: Nahla,your insane.
-
OOC: at Getalife.com ;)
Grandma and Grandpa however did notice the two youngsters. And they did not recognize either of them, which was strange considering they knew nearly everyone in the Valley at least from sight.
"Well hello there." Grandma spoke up, adressing them with a gentle voice. "And who might you be?"
-
Zimba jerked his head up "Err..." he said in surprise "I'm Zimba"/
-
"And I'm Nahla" the young female added hiding behind her companions leg with only her head poking out.
-
"You seem to be new to the Valley, are we correct in assuming that?" Grandpa gently asked, smiling warmly at the nervous young female.
-
"Uh huh" Nahla answered "We just got here" she said timidly thinking her and Zimba were in trouble.
-
"What she said" Zimba said "Don't you dare hurt her" he took a step back "She is just a poor little orphan....oops" he realized what he said too late.
-
"Hurt her?" Grandma echoed. "Why would we want to hurt either her or you?"
"You are safe here, young ones." Grandpa agreed with his wife. "You came here all by yourself?"
-
Nahla nodded "My parents are dead and Zimba's kicked him out" Nahla said tears forming in her eyes,she lowered her head as she began sobbing.
-
"Don't cry Nahla" Zimba said softly "I'll go get you some tree-stars from that tree over there" he said nodding with his head "Just stay here" he walked off leaving Nahla alone with the Grandparents.
-
Grandma and Grandpa shared a short look, before the elder female slowly lowered her head to nuzzle the little girl.
"Ssshhh... It's going to be alright..." She whispered.
-
"How can it be?" Nahla asked "My mummy and daddy are dead" she sobbed "And it was all my fault...I wandered away from home"
-
Zimba returned back a pile of treestars in his mouth,he placed them next to Nahla before facing the grandparents "Nahla is an orphan" he explained "Her parents were killed by sharpteeth while saving her,mine didn't want me anymore so they kicked me out? I found her in the Mysterious Beyond injured. I was just gonna take her in till she recovered but I couldn't leave her on her own" he paused to take a breath "We been wandering the Mysterious Beyond ever since"
-
The thought that anyone would willingly reject their child was well beyond what they'd want to think about.
"You should meet our grandson, Nahla." They shared a glance. "He is -was- in the same situation as you are. Almost exactly, as a matter of fact."
-
Nahla raised her head from her meal "He was?" she asked quietly.
~
Littlefoot by now had had enough and was walking towards his Grandparents he stopped when he saw Zimba and Nahla "Grandma,Grandpa who are they?"
-
Zimba didn't answer he just stood over Nahla "You're not hurting her" he snarled unaware that this was the grandson the older longnecks were talking about.
-
"Littlefoot, these are Zimba and Nahla. Zimba, Nahla, that is our grandson." Grandpa introduced them.
"We'd like you to befriend them." Grandma added with a meaningful glance. "They lost their parents as well."
-
"How?" Littlefoot asked curious "What happened to them?"
At this Nahla fell even quieter as fresh tears formed in her eyes.
-
Zimba's gazed drifted to the ground "We would rather not talk about it...it's too painful" he looked at Nahla "Have a nap Nahla,we been walking an awfully long time" he faced Littlefoot and smiled before turning to the grandparents "Is there a place me and Nahla may rest? We been walking since the bright circle rose and we are awfully worn out" he picked up Nahla for he was big enough and her small enough to do so.
-
"You can rest at our nest for now." Grandma offered.
"And I'd like to talk to you for a moment, Littlefoot." Grandpa gestured to the water-hole in the distance.
-
OOC: Zimmy won't be back today (she going to a party without me :( so me filling in cause she said so.
Zimba nodded and moved the now asleep Nahla to his back "Thanks".
Littlefoot nodded "Yes Grandpa" he said walking in that direction.
-
OOC: aawwwww, She didn't take me either xD
"Follow me then." Grandma started walking, as did Grandpa, just in the opposite direction.
-
OOC: She evil,and she prob still sleeping from all he parting so...
Zimba nodded and followed Grandma
"What do you want to talk to me about Grandpa?" Littlefoot asked.
-
"The young female, Nahla..." The elder male answered. "She will need your support. She lost both her parents just as you lost your mother." And I my child, he added in thought.
-
"Really?" Littlefoot asked his face falling "So she has no family at all?"
-
"From what I understand she and her companion came here blindly." Grandpa settled down on the ground, looking into the distance where he could see his mate with the two youngsters. "She will need support, even if she does not wish to talk of it."
"Pick a spot around here." Grandma softly whispered. "None shall disturb you."
-
Littlefoot nodded but suddenly frowned "But wait..wheres the other kids parents? Or are they brother and sister or something?"
Zimba nodded "Thank you.you're very kind" he placed Nahla on the ground before laying beside her,his stomach growled but he just face the other way and ignored it.
-
"He says his parents kicked him out." Grandpa's face made clear exactly what he thought of that.
Grandma smiled faintly at his growling stomach before walking over to a nearby tree where she ripped off a sizeable branch and laid it down in front of him.
-
"Why would they do that?" Littlefoot questioned confused "Why would someone want to get rid of their own kid?"
Zimba smiled at Grandma "Thank you again,if you don't mind we'll rest here tonight then be on our way tomorrow morning"
-
"I don't know..." Grandpa admitted. "I honestly do not know."
"You can also stay. This Valley is protected." Grandma answered, resting down beside them. "No need to worry about Sharpteeth attacking you." She looked around. "Or running out of food any time soon."
-
Littlefoot lowered his head "Who will look after them now?"
Zimba smiled this "I'll talk to Nahla when she wakes up" he said looking down at the sleeping female next to him "Thanks again..ummm what can we call you?"
-
"Let's see if we can get them to stay..." Grandpa mused. "There are plenty of Longnecks who'd love having young ones of their own."
"Everyone calls me Grandma Longneck, or Grandma for short." She chuckled softly. "I do think that aside from my husband, none in this Valley even know my real name anymore."
-
Littlefoot's mind drifted remembering how much he always wanted a sibling "Ok Grandpa" he smiled at him before his stomach growled hungry after todays adventure.
Zimba nodded "Grandma...cool.....I never had a Grandma before....or a Grandpa" he smiled "If Nahla agrees,we'll stay" he then lowered his head to the branch Grandma got him and began to eat
-
"Seems someone is late for lunch." He playfully nudged his grandson, which resulted in said grandson rolling over.
Grandma said nothing, merely studying the two youngsters in deep contemplation.
-
Littlefoot laughed "Grandpa!" he stood up laughing he playfully charged and headbutted Grandpa's leg but with Grandpa being so big and he so small it wouldn't of hurt much.
Zimba finished eating and he looked over to Nahla and nudged her to see if she was still fast asleep-she was.
-
Grandpa laughed just as hard, hoisting the squirming youngster up by his tail, dropping him into the nearby water-hole.
"How long have you two been together?" Grandma asked after her silence.
-
OOC: Ok Nahla/Tal/Nana/Pineapple I can take Zimba back now.
Zimbas gaze drifted to the ground "Two cold times we been wandering together, every herd rejects us..we don't understand why..I guess they find it suspicious when we say we don't want to talk about our past or where we came from.." he trailed off
-
OOC: Pineapple? WTH Zimmy?
Littlefoot screamed as he hit the water,he quickly came up to the surface coughing "Grandpa! What you do that for!" he yelled in a playful tone.
-
"You attacked me, that is unacceptable." He serenely said with a grin. :smile
"I think most are more reluctant to have more mouths to feed rather than rejecting you because you do not wish to talk about your past." Grandma mused.
-
Littlefoot smirked and began to splash water all over Grandpa in revenge.
Nahla was finally beginning to wake,she opened her eyes with a yawn.
OOC: Poor Nahla being neglected by me :lol
-
OOC: I jjust realized I never hit 'post' fail
Zimba smiled at Nahla before looking over to Grandma "Can you give us a moment alone? I need to talk to her about...you know..staying"
-
"Oh, now it is on." In retalation Grandpa slammed his tail down in the water, creating a wave that washed over his grandson.
"Certainly." She rose. "I'll be at the waterhole over there if you need me."
-
Zimba nodded "Thanks" he lowered his head to Nahla "Nahla...I think we should stay here,we got food,water and protection but I'll leave it up to you..we don't even have to stay with others if you don't want to we can stay by oursleves" he gazed into the distance...he really wanted to stay.
-
Nahla's eyes widen "I was going to ask if we could stay so...YES LETS STAY PLEASE ZIMBA" she screamed with happiness "I like it here" she added in a more quiet manner.
Littlefoot got out of the water laughing,he got into his 'lone dinosaur' pose and pretended to do his little tail whip...only he hit himself instead.
-
Grandpa snorted in amusement. "That might need some practice, doesn't it?"
"It certainly does." Grandma had seen it as she approached. "But then again, you took quite a while to learn it as well, dear."
-
Zimba nodded "Course we can Nahla" he smiled and nuzzled her "I'll go find that Grandma and tell her what we chosen" he got up "You stay here and get some more rest" he began to walk off.
-
Nahla watched him leave and closed her eyes,enjoying the peace and the fact she knew she was safe here.
Littlefoot smiled when he saw his Grandma "Graaaaaaandmaaaa,Grandpa dropped me in the watering hole" he tattle tailed but there was clearly a playful tone with it.
-
"Well, I am afraid I can do little about that. He's ever so slightly too heavy for me to throw him in." She chuckled. "Though I can see if I can push him in?"
"I'd love to see you try, dear." Her mate countered with a snort.
-
Littlefoot laughed and rubbed his head against both his grandparents,his growled even louder this time.
-
OOC: did zimba lose Grandma or what? xD
"Oh my, someone is hungry." Grandma chuckled. "Want us to get you some Treestars down?"
-
OOC: Zimmy been too busy to post,but Zimba is coming
Littlefoot nodded "Yes please Grandma" he said eagerly.
-
She turned to one of the nearby trees, doing for him what she had done for the other young male: ripping off a sizable branch. "There you go."
-
"Thanks Grandma" he said and dug into his meal
OOC: I'll fill in for Zimmy
Zimba reached them,he cleared his throat while looking at Grandma
-
"Oh, didn't you want to stay with Nahla?" She turned to face him, her mate rising to stand at her side.
-
Zimba looked to the ground "Er...sorry to bother but me and Nahla have chosen to stay and were wondering where our resting place was"
-
The two elders shared a glance at that.
"You can stay us for the time-being if you want. We'll see where your permanent spot can be once you settled into the Valley." Grandpa offered, his wife nodding in agreement.
-
Zimba nodded "Thank you,I'll leave you to your family moment now..." he turned and walked off back to Nahla.
-
OOC: Say, who plays the other characters? (aka rest of Gang, etc) Who ever gets to them first?
"I think he feels awkward." Grandma murmured so softly only her mate could hear.
He nodded, before turning to Littlefoot. "We'll go eat something as well, perhaps you can introduce them to the other children if they want to?"
-
OOC: Well the point of this RP was to be a private,just,me you and Zimmy playing as the longecks.
Littlefoot raised his head "Grandma,Grandpa? Why don't YOU'S look after them? he suggested.
-
OOC: Yeah, but I think it would get weird if Littlefoot ignored his friends :/ At least, in my opinion. Also, I don't quite understand Littlefoot's question there. Does he mean 'why do you look after them' or 'why don't you look after them'? That extra S and the emphasis are confusing me >-<
-
OOC: The gang can be 'free' characters,which means anyone can use them when they want. Since it just a 3 person RP. It too late to accept sign ups when it halfway through. And it meant to be 'why DON'T' yous look after them/?" meaning Littlefoot is asking Grandma and Grandpa why don't they let them join their family.
-
OOC: kay
"Well, I think they might be happier with people more in the parent-age range taking care of them, rather than us two old ones." Grandpa stated.
"Besides, you and your friends keep it busy enough as it is." Grandma grinned. "No need to triple the worry, now is there?"
-
"Oh...ok." Littlefoot said in a disappointed tone,he was hoping he could at least pretend he had a brother and sister.
Zimba arrived back and lay down next to Nahla looking awkward.
"Whats wrong?" Nahla asked.
"Nothing...just I ruined a family moment.."
-
OOC: Zimmy even coming along again?
"You sound disappointed, little one." Grandma stated softly as Grandpa started to walk away to claim a tree for dinner. "Why?"
-
OOC: Who knows,she has some problems right now.
"Er....I thought if you and Grandpa became their new Grandparents...I could have a brother and sister" Littlefoot said quietly "All my friends have brothers or sisters....I feel kind left out" he admitted.
-
OOC: ah, kay
"Oh." They had expected many answers, but not this one and so they were not entirely sure how to react to it. They had never noticed that Littlefoot felt left out!
-
"But...it doesn't matter" Littlefoot said quietly turning around "I guess my wish will always just be a wish..." he actually sounded and looked upset "I know there is Shorty but he is hardly ever here so it doesn't really count...."
-
"Who knows, perhaps your wish will be fullfilled." Grandpa mused. "Much also depends on them. If they wish to have us as caretakers, who are we to argue?"
-
"Really?" Littlefoot asked his face lighting up but he was cut off by a female voice.
"Sorry to disturb but I'll like to take a drink" Nahla said shyly.
-
OOC: Hey guys
Zimba walked up behind her "It is ok that she uses the watering hole right?" he looked down "If not she can go without a drink.....I think" he trailed off,he knew Nahla was very very thirsty.
-
OOC: Hi ^-^
"Nonsense." Grandma smiled warmly at them. "The water is for everyone, I assure you."
-
OOC: Zimmykins!Imma give you hug *hugs*
Nahla smiled "Thanks" she began lapping up the cool water.
Littlefoot watched her and sighed remembering again how much he always wanted a sibling.
-
OOC: *Hugs* Thanks Nana Mrs Banana
Zimba shifted his weight and yawned,he had been so worried about protecting Nahla he had not rested himself at all,he was completely spent. He yawned again nearly collapsing asleep but managing to stop himself in time,his eyes droopy.
-
"Oh my, seems someone should catch up on sleep." Grandma tilted her head. "You can go back to our restingplace, if you want to."
-
Littlefoot stood up and took a drink himself,getting too close to the female for Nahla's liking.
Nahla stared at him before taking steps back only to crash into Grandma and fell over,she wasn't really scared more like just plain shy.
-
Zimba nodded "I'll do that" he said and began to walk off almost collapsing alseep again on the way,he chose to just leave Nahla with Grandma not even noticing her shyness of Littlefoot. Upon reaching the resting place he let himself collapse asleep.
-
Grandpa and Grandma shared an amused glance at the girl's reaction to their grandson, but did not comment on it.
-
Littlefoot tilted his head and walked towards Nahla "Hey! It ok,wanna play with me?" he asked hopeful.
Nahla glanced to the ground not saying anything.
Littlefoot's face fell in disappointment "Why she acting like this?" he asked his Grandparents.
-
Zimba slept unaware of Nahla's struggles right now. He shifted and let out a mumble that sounded like "Come on Nahla" but did not wake.
-
"Well, my guess is that she is shy." Grandma smiled gently. "Remember what happened to her."
-
Littlefoot frowned,he was used to being able to make friends with everyone easily but he then smiled "You sure you don't want to play? I know really fun games! Don't I Grandma and Grandpa?" he grinned at his Grandparents.
-
OOC: assuming Zimba is going to post only 'Zzzzzz' for a while, is it okay if I post?
-
OOC: Yeah she said we can go ahead and keep going. She'll pop back in when Zimba wakes up,no point in her writing posts about her charrie doing nothing but sleep.
-
OOC: Kay
"Well, you certainly do." Grandpa stated, looking at his wife. And get lost doing it... He added mentally. His wife's face carried very much the same sentiment.
-
OOC: That awkward moment when you forget to hit 'App reply'
"See!' Littlefoot exclaimed turning to Nahla"It'll be fun! And you'll forget all about your parents!".
At this tears filled Nahla's eyes and she whipped around and sprinted off.
OOC: Oh Littlefoot....
-
OOC: That awkward moment where you make someone run to the other side of the Valley xD
"Oh dear..." Grandma breathed. "I'll go check on her. Littlefoot, stay with your grandfather."
-
Littlefoot nodded feeling a bit bad,he got overexcited and now he had hurt her feelings. He tried to blink back tears,he hated seeing anyone upset-it made HIM upset but this time it was worse cause he knew he caused it.
Nahla stopped running and now lay by a watering hole. She stared at her reflection as her tears added to the already overfull water.
OOC: Poor Littlefoot and Nahal
-
Grandpa reached down with his neck. "It's alright, we all make mistakes once in a while. Once she has calmed down, I'm certain she'll forgive you."
Speed versus big steps equaled an easily found young female. "Nahla?" Grandma hesitantly walked up.
-
Littlefoot nodded "I guess I just got way too excited over the idea of having someone new to play with"
Nahla turned her head to greet Grandma but soon turned away again to keep staring at her reflection.
-
"Heh, I remember something quite like that happen to someone I knew once." Grandpa smiled fondly at the memory.
"I hope you understand Littlefoot wasn't trying to be mean." The old female settled down beside her. "Just a bit too enthusiastic."
-
Littlefoot sighed "But still...I shouldn't of said that about her parents...."
Nahla choked back a sob "I know...I know he didn't do it on purpose....it just....I just miss them....so much"
-
"No one is perfect, Littlefoot. As long as you are genuinely sorry about your mistakes, things will work out in the end." Grandpa softly soothed his grandson.
"Quite understandable and no one will blame you." Grandma hesitantly leaned down to nuzzle the female. "Do you want to know what someone told my grandson after he lost his mother?"
-
Littlefoot smiled a bit "Thanks Grandpa,but you're wrong about one thing" mischief filled his eyes "You said nobodys perfect...I'm perfect!" he said before burtsing out in laughter.
Nahla just nodded not saying a word.
-
"Oh?" The old male got the same mischievous look in his eyes. "Do 'perfect' people have this happening to them?" With one quick movement he brought his tail forward, bowling over his grandson.
"I don't know the exact words - I wasn't there -, but it came down to this: if we remember our loved ones and what they taught us, they will never be truly gone." Grandma gently said.
-
"Grannnnnnnnndpa stop doing that!" Littlefoot said through laughter standing up before once again playfully charging forward.
"It was my fault...." Nahla said softly "I wandered away from home when Mother told me to stay because there were Sharpteeth around..."
-
He was relieved that he could distract his young one a bit, putting his tail between himself and the charging youngster. "Ah, to be big."
"We all make mistakes." Grandma told her. "But I am certain your parents would not blame you for what happened. Nor should you. It was a terrible accident, nothing more."
-
Littlefoot skidded to a stop and turned around grabbing some berries off a nearby bush,with a smirk he began to use his tail to fling them at Grandpa.
Nahla sighed "I expect Littlefoot feels bad now,doesn't he?"
-
Now THAT he had not expected. "Don't make me drop you IN that bush, young one." He play-glared, shielding himself somewhat with his tail.
"Knowing his grandfather, it'll be okay now. He is quite resilient in that regard." Grandma chuckled. "Oh, the stories I could tell you..."
-
Littlefoot still laughing took off running pretending he thought he would get away with it.
Nahla's gaze drifted around the valley "It's really pretty here" she commented.
-
"I'm too old for this." The old male muttered, grinning as he got up.
"That it is..." Grandma looked around as well. "Though some residents are nicer than others. And some problems smaller than others."
-
Littlefoot laughed looking behind him.Not looking where he was going he tripped over a log and landed in a large mud puddle.
Nahla looked down at the ground "I have a question" she said "Where is Littlefoot's dad? Doesn't he have one?"
-
"That works too." Littlefoot's grandfather lowered his head to look at the youngster. "Didn't hurt yourself?"
"Well, for the better part of Littlefoot's life they believed each other dead." Grandma hesitantly said. "And now he cannot stay here because of his herd. And Littlefoot is not yet ready to leave his friends here to go with him. He visits at times though."
-
OOC: My internet is not being my friend today.
Littlefoot shook his head "I'm fine" he stood up however he was coated head to tail in mud,only thing they could be made out among it was his sparkling reddish brown eyes.
"So you's look after him like you're actually his parents?" the young female questioned.
-
OOC: *pat, pat*
"Oh dear." Grandpa chuckled. "Best get yourself cleaned up before your grandmother sees you like this."
"Pretty much." Grandma smiled warmly.
-
Littlefoot smirked and shook sending the mud flying onto Grandpa "There,all good now" he laughed.
"Thats really nice of you's" Nahla smiled
-
"I don't think so." The old male loomed over his grandson. "Off to bath with you."
"Well, there was not much of a choice back then. It would hardly have done letting him go on alone." Grandma's face became sad. "He had to do too much of that already."
-
"I had a bath yesterday" Littlefoot complained.
Nahla sighed as she watched the rippling water "He's lucky...lucky to have you and his Grandpa"
-
OOC: isn't Nahla talking to his grandMa!? o.O
"And today you ran into the mudhole." Grandpa picked him up at his tail. "Your grandmother would just love this."
"As lucky as we are to have him as our grandson." Grandma smiled. "Though he keeps us almost busier than we ought to be at our age." She laughed at the many memories.
-
OOC: I forgot the 'and' my bad xD it late leave me alone
"Nooooooo don't tell Grandma" Littlefoot complained.
"Does he always stay in the valley here? I know I would" Nahla grinned as she gazed around.
OOC: Oh Nahla...why you ask THAT?!
-
OOC: sue me! >:|
"Mayhap." The old male snickered.
"I wish he did..." Grandma rolled her eyes. "He has this tendency to find trouble, whether that be IN the valley, or outside it. Thankfully I have yet to hear of an incident he couldn't fix himself."
-
OOC: It 5am...can't sleep...don't know why I woke up in the first place for
Littlefoot stopped complaining and let Grandpa carry him...that was not saying he was looking forward to the bath.
"Trouble?" Nahla questioned "What kind of trouble?" her voice was curious.
-
He carefully dropped his cargo in a secluded wateringhole. "Hop, in you go."
"Oh dear... Getting lost, meeting people he perhaps shouldn't, that kind of thing." Grandma told her. "He once ended up on an island of all things. Still am not quite sure how that happened..."
-
Littlefoot tried to get past Grandpa and get out to flee,but it was clear he was just playing around.
Nahla laughed "Sounds like he keeps you on your toes then...thats what my mother said about me..." her voice trailed off as she thought of her beloved mother.
-
He took the bait gladly, dragging him back again and again.
"All children do, one way or another." Grandma sagely said. "And Littlefoot isn't even the worst of them all."
-
Finally Littlefoot gave in and stayed in the water-play glaring at Grandpa.
"Does Littlefoot have any brothers or sisters?" Nahla had forgotten all about her shyness,she was really loving talking to Grandma.
-
"Come now, I had to go through this too." Grandpa winked at him. "It'd hardly be fair if you would not."
"A Step-brother, but no blood-relatives." Grandma sighed sadly. "He was the sole survivor of the first - and last - nest of my daughter. Who again is the sole surviving of my children."
-
Littlefoot sighed and just did as he was told and after a while he even began to enjoy the water.
"I'm sorry..." Nahla said "But Mother always told me...the less we have the more we appreciate it"
-
"That is one way of putting it and the thought certainly has merit." Grandma stated. "Your mother was a smart woman."
-
Nahla half smiled "Yeah..she was...though she kept filling me with what she called 'wisdoms'" she chuckled remembering how she broke over 95% of them.
-
"Oh, I tried that once too with Littlefoot after he nearly threw me down a ravine." Grandma chuckled once more, looking over to the side the ravine was located. "They caused him to go help a herd of wanderers find their target." She shook her head in exasperation.
-
"Gee sounds like he gets up to quite the adventures" the young girl laughed.
Meanwhile Littlefoot came out of the water now completely spotless,he play glared at Grandpa "Happy now?" he asked with a hint of a smile.
-
"He is. Sadly." Grandma snickered. "His friends are just as bad, following him everywhere."
"Careful with that tone." Grandpa warned with a grin. "You are still not too big for me to throw you into the mud once more."
-
Nahla smiled "You're really nice" she commented leaning her head against Grandma's side.
"You wouldn't dare" Littlefoot laughed.
-
"Thank you." Grandma leaned down to nuzzle the young female.
"After dealing with Grandma's father, I don't dare very little." Grandpa got to his feet. "Let's see if we can find the girls, shall we?"
-
Nahla sighed happily,feeling much better from she arrived.
Littlefoot nodded and walked ahead only to stop and look back "Please don't tell Grandma about the mud" he gave a begging smile.
-
"We shall see." Grandpa threatened playfully.
-
Littlefoot turned back around and walked off to find his Grandma.
-
Grandpa followed him, quickly spotting the form of his mate in the distance.
-
Littlefoot ran forward quickly reaching them,however Nahla not noticing him stuck her tail out tripping him. Littlefoot screamed in shock as he tumbled into the water....again.
Nahla bought her tail back trying to hide a smile "Sorry" she said through giggles. She had to admit...it did look pretty funny.
-
"Oh my, and here I was thinking you hated baths." Grandma snickered, briefly looking up as her husband settled down beside her.
-
Littlefoot got out of the water "I do hate baths now I've had to have two today!" he complained shaking off.
-
"Two?" His grandmother echoed. "What happened between you boys while I was gone?"
Grandpa looked away pointedly.
-
Littlefoot realized what he said "Oh nothing" he lied.
Nahla snickered "Yeah right"
-
"This is not how his mother was, isn't it?" Grandma muttered to her mate, who nodded with a smile.
"We can blame Bron for this." He agreed.
-
Littlefoot walked to Nahla and tapped her "Tag you're it!" he ran off laughing.
Nahla just stared after him blankly...she was very confused.
-
OOC: I should wake Zimba up,any longer and we can make him his own version of Sleeping Beauty xD
Zimba awoke with a yawn,he blinked a few times and stood up. He remembered what woke him-the sound of Nahla's laughter. He smiled at that,it sure sounded like she was happy. He started going to where he heard the sound to see what was up.
-
"As I said, resilient." Grandma laughed. "You're suppossed to go catch him now, dear."
-
"Why would I do that?" Nahla asked,she never really knew other kids besides Zimba..but even he wasn't really a kid so she didn't understand the whole 'games' thing.
-
OOC: Sneakly sneaking in
"It's what we call a game Nahla" a young male voice said as Zimba reached them "It what most kids do" he smiled at her and took a drink and turned to Grandma and Grandpa smiling "Why is your grandson running out the valley?"
OOC: Sorry Sleepy,me and Nana just so curious to see Grandparents reaction to that xD
-
OOC: Zimmy.when you try and sneak it you don't publicly announce it xD
Nahla tried to hide her laughter remembering what Grandma told her about Littlefoot always wandering off.
Littlefoot was running out of the valley,his call for adventure kicking in. He sprinted towards the exit a smile on his face.
OOC: Why do I have a feeling that Grandma and/or Grandpa are gonna either A. Take another route to appear in front of him or B. Sneak up on him and grab him? Or whatever they'll do. Whatever happens I got a funny Littlefoot reaction planned.
-
OOC: Very nice, just abandoning your friends, Littlefoot >:| ps: Why do you need to sneak in, Zimba, it was your turn already...
"And here I hoped he'd stay in the Valley for longer than a week." Grandma muttered darkly. "I swear he does this because he wants to get us in an early grave..."
Grandpa chuckled good-naturedly at that. "He does take Cold Times of our life-span, doesn't he? I'll go get him. You two want to tag along?"
-
OOC: He mainly doing it to tease Grandpa for making him take a bath xD he ain't serious, And don't question Zimmy's logic...just don't.
Nahla trying to hide her giggles nodded "Yeah,I wanna see his face when you catch him!"
OOC: Zimmy neeeeeeeever on early only like 5pm in the afternoon sooo
Zimba also nodded before grabbing Nahla also trying to hide his own laughter.
-
OOC: does that mean it's my turn now?
Grandma and Grandpa shared a short glance and without a word each picked up a youngster and put them on their backs.
"Hold on, young ones." They said in unison.
-
OOC: Ya,I'm the new Zimmy till this afternoon xD
"We are" Zimba and Nahla said in unison.
-
OOC: So, should I call you Zimmy or Nana now? o.O
"Good." Both started running for where they assumed their grandson was. The earth shook as they approached him at quite the surprising speed.
-
OOC: Hmm how about both in one.....Zimna!
Littlefoot heard them coming "Uh oh' he muterred looking around-though he had only two choices to go. Outside the valley or right into his Grandparents.He got low to the ground and walked towards his Grandparents,trying to sneak past them back to the resting place to act like he was there the whole time.
-
"We really are getting old." Grandma muttered when they had to slow down. "Now to find that wayward youngster."
"Ah, being big is not perfect." Grandpa looked around. "You two back there still okay?"
-
Nahla nodded before nearly bursting out into laughter but manging to hold it,she poked Grandma and pointed to Littlefoot who was crawling along on his belly,glancing at his Grandparents every few seconds,all he had to do was make it to the resting place before they saw him and he would be fine/
-
Long necks are handy for one thing in particular: getting something far away without moving your body.
"Busted." Grandma grabbed her grandson's tail.
-
Littlefoot's face filled with surpise and nervousness,he gulped and chuckled "H-h-h-i Grandma..hi G-g-randpa" he stammered "What are you's doing out here?" he smiled trying to get out of the trouble he got himself in.
OOC: Me forgot me idea about his reaction....daw it was really good too.
-
"Nothing much." Grandpa stated. "We just saw you dragging yourself through the mud and thought you ought to take a bath."
His grin could only be described as evil.
-
"Mud? What mud?" Littlefoot gave an innocent grin.
-
"The one on the ground." Grandpa walked back into the valley, followed by Grandma who was still carrying Littlefoot.
-
Nahla was laughing "Is this what you's have to put up with all the time?" she asked the grandparents smiling at the squirming Littlefoot.
-
"Most of the time we only lecture him, then let him run off." Grandpa rolled his eyes. "He won't ever change."
He watched as his grandson once more ended up in the water. Almost as one, the two elder longnecks reached to their backs and hoisted the other two youngsters in as well.
-
Zimba yelped in surpise "What was that for?!" he asked trying to get out.
Littlefoot tired to follow his lead "I hate baths!" he complanied.
Nahla on the other hand used her tail to splash the water on herself smiling,she LOVED baths she'd take one all day if she could.
-
"You all ought to get a bath." Grandma leaned down. "Now shush." She started to clean them.
-
Nahla giggled as the males tried to break away "Why do boys hate baths so much?" she asked Grandma.
-
"Oh, that is one of those mysteries of the ages." Grandma rolled her eyes good-naturedly. "Along with many, many more things."
-
"How can you LIKE baths?" Littlefoot asked her "You're crazy!" he broke away and sprinted away from the water,half of him clean and the other half still covered in mud.
Nahla rolled her eyes,she was now spotless but she didn't want to get out "Can I stay in longer?" she asked "Pleeeeeeeeeeeease".
-
"Of course you can..." Grandma looked after her grandson, then sighed. "I wonder when he'll realize he'll be done quicker if he just cooperates..."
"Once he's a father himself." Grandpa laughed. "SHould I chase him again?"
-
Nahla nodded giggling.
Zimba now clean got out of the water he stared at Nahla "How do you ENJOY that?!!
-
"It's a girl-thing." Grandpa assured him as Grandma went to hunt their errant grandson. "Believe me, I tried to figure it out myself."
-
Littlefoot heard his Grandma's footsteps and hid in a bush not realizing his tail was sticking out,he reaaaaally did not want to take anymore baths.
-
Said grandmother was really wondering if she should pretend that she didn't see the tail, or just take Littlefoot and give him his upteenth bath of the day.
-
Littlefoot knowing Grandma was there stayed completely still,still unware of the tail fact.
-
In the end she just took pity on the youngster and walked back to the rest again.
"Lost him?" Grandpa asked.
"He had a bath three times already today. I am not that cruel." She smiled.
-
Nahla was STILL in the water but she was starting to get cold and it showed. She shivered violently but she loves baths way too much. She looked up at the sky and saw the bright circle was starting to set. She wondered what was for dinner...but dinner means she would have to get out of the bath which she didn't want to do...even though she was completely freezing in there.
-
"Oh my, is it this late already?" Grandma looked at the setting Bright Circle. "I am sorry, Nahla, but you'll have to get out now. You can hardly sleep in there, after all."
-
"Awww" Nahla complained but stepped out of the water "Can I have another bath tomorrow?" she smiled.
"Girls...are..weird" Zimba said shaking his head.
-
OOC: You two DO realize that Grandpa and Grandma are liable to get a heart-attack now? xD
"We'll see..." Grandma ushered the two to their resting-place while Grandpa went and collected Littlefoot.
"Your tail is sticking out." He told him, gesturing to their place. "Dinner and sleep-time, little one."
-
OOC: Why what ever do you mean? :angel
Littlefoot came out of the bush smiling proudly,he playfully carried his head high as he walked past Grandpa-he got out of having a bath-YAY.
-
OOC: You said you wanted action xD not our fault that teenagers like Nana and me think action=drama xD
Zimba followed Grandma unwillingly. He was used to being the one in charge of things-NAHLA never questioned or tried to challenge him.
-
OOC: Yes, but TRIPLE-drama!? I'm still surprised that some of Littlefoot's lone stunts didn't kill them! :wow
All five settled down after a good treestar dinner, Grandpa and Grandma resting beside eachother.
-
OOC: Nahla won't be THAT bad xD,gonna make it so she at least stays IN the valley, And besides they could always send Nahla and Zimba off to another family :lol they'll just crawl their way back though.
Littlefoot yawned and tried to sleep,he had his eyes closed but was frowning because of Nahla.
Nahla was giggling loudly as she chased a butterfly around the area preventing Littlefoot..or anyone really from getting sleep.
OOC: No be mad at Nahla,not her fault Zimba just let her do what she wanted most of the time so she used to it xD
-
OOC: Zimba not very parental xD.
Zimba growled under his breath wanting Nahla to shut up,but she sounded happy though it was starting to drive him CRAZY her giggling all the time.
-
OOC: those poor grandparents are gonna have a fieldday >-< I am now very tempted to have one of them suffer a heart-attack xD
"Nahla, dear." Grandma looked up. "Don't you think that flying buzzer would want to sleep also?"
-
OOC: Poor longnecks,we torturing them!
Nahla skidded to a stop and looked to Littlefoot who was glaring at her-he just wanted sleep!. She looked to the ground "Sorry" she said quietly laying down,facing away from the others and closing her eyes.
OOC: Nahla will be good girl then..she'll just talk Grandma to death xD. Zimmy gone out for dinner by the way so lets just say Zimba asleep...again.
-
Grandma gently reached over, nuzzling the female. "Well, it seems Zimba already is asleep as well..." She chuckled softly. "Good night."
-
Nahla smiled "Good night,Grandma..goodnight Grandpa..goodnight Troublemaker" she giggled for a moment at what she called Littlefoot before she too closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Littlefoot scoffed "I'm not a trouble maker..." he trailed off already guessing what his Grandparents would say about THAT.
-
OOC: Is it okay if I do time-skip in this one?
In the end, they only shared an amused glance at that one. They figured that they had the label 'troublemaker' did not only count for Littlefoot.
Next Morning!
-
OOC: Yep feel free to time skip. Skippy skippy skip skip skip.
With that Littlefoot yawned "Goodnight" he mumbled out then almost instantly he was out for the night. He has finally burned out.
OOC: Guess who missing the big NEXT MORNING?
-
OOC: Littlefoot? xD
They woke early, as usual. The three youngsters did not seem that eager to greet the new day. As usual.
-
Nahla had somehow turned herself around AND upside down in her sleep,she was now on her back and facing the opposite direction then what she fell asleep in.
-
Since it was quite early, they just let them lie.
Though they couldn't help but wonder how the position of the female could be comfortable. It was a testimony to how well they knew one another that they could have entire conversations without saying a word.
-
Littlefoot shifted still fast asleep,he let out a mumble which soon became a clear voice-he was talking in his sleep! "Graaaaanndmaaa don't make me have another bath...give Grandpa one instead..."
OOC: Haha Littlefoot xD
-
Now THAT gave them pauze. :rolleyes Then Grandpa quite empaticly shook his head 'NO' at his wife.
-
Littlefoot rolled only to land on a pinecone,he jerked awake with a loud "Ow!".
-
"That works too..." Grandpa chuckled softly. "We should make waking them like this a habit, dear."
-
Littlefoot stood up shaking,he turned and walked over to his grandparents"Morning,Grandma. Morning,Grandpa!"
-
"Good morning, Little one." Grandma leaned down to nuzzle him. "I don't need to ask if you slept well, considering what you were telling me to do."
Grandpa rolled his eyes fondly at that. :rolleyes
-
"What do you mean?" Littlefoot asked not thinking that Grandma was talking about his little 'sleep talk'.
-
"You told her to give me a bath." Grandpa grumbled. :confused "I am perfectly capable to keep myself clean... Unlike certain grandsons of mine I shall not name..."
At that Grandma couldn't stop herself anymore and she laughed. :lol
-
Littlefoot poked his tongue out at his Grandparents before his gaze drifted to Nahla and he frowned "How can she sleep like THAT?!" he wondered staring at the female who was still on her back but now had her head tucked into her side causing her neck to be bent.
-
"We have NO clue." :smile Grandpa looked her over. "I am more surprised she and Zimba didn't wake from all the talking and laughing..."
-
"Maybe you should at least wake Nahla up" Littlefoot suggested "Before she damages her back or neck...or both" he knew well that longnecks weren't really made to have their necks bent like that,it could really injure them if they did it for too long.
-
"True enough." Grandma nudged the female, while at the same time poking Zimba with her tail-tip. "Wake up, sleepy-head."
-
OOC: I suppose I'll play Zimba for Zimmykins,I'm Zimmy's offical fill in in rps anyway.
Zimba awoke "Whaaat?" what he complained blinking.
Nahla however did not wake,she was a heavy sleeper.
-
"If I didn't know better, I'd say she is related to our daughter." Grandma nudged her again. :DD "Couldn't wake her for the life of me either."
"Breakfast-time, and bath as well since someone didn't do that yesterday." Grandpa told the boys with a grin. :smile
-
"Yeah Zimba,you're getting a bath-good luck" Littlefoot grinned.
Nahla still didn't wake,she just tried to swat Grandma away with her tail.
OOC: Stubborn Nahla is stubborn.
-
"I think your grandfather was talking about you, Littlefoot." Grandma dodged the tail expertly. "Well, let's try something else then." :neutral
And off into the shallow waters the girl went. *blub* Grandpa was meanwhile contemplating doing the same to his still-filthy grandson. :angel
OOC: and yes, Grandma IS gonna make sure she doesn't drown should she sleep on xD
-
OOC: I'm curious at what else Grandma will do to wake up Nahla xD.
Nahla unbent her neck but did not wake.
"Umm..Nahla is a reaaaaaaally heavy slepper" Zimba stated the obvious.
Littlefoot "Yeah! I'm getting a bath-wait WHAT?!!" Littlefoot exclaimed when it really hit him.
-
"Well, at least she's no longer bending her neck." Grandma muttered.
"How did you wake her, Zimba?" Grandpa asked the older boy, ignoring his traumatized grandson for the moment.
-
"Slap her in the face" Zimba said smirking "Or I'll make a noise that sounds like that big boom in the sky when theres a storm-that terrifies her..it wakes her up but she cries for the next hour"
OOC; Zimba so mean xD
-
"Oh dear, I hope you'll learn better once you have your own children." Grandma shook her head. "We'll just let her wake on her own for now." She lifted the young female out of the water.
"Meanwhile, we can get some breakfast already." Grandpa suggested.
-
Zimba just smirked again rising up on his back legs before bringing them down on a log that was right next to Nahla's head,the sound echoed across the whole resting place..and it didn't help he also screamed "BANG!" at the top of his lungs in her ear.
Nahla jerked awake panicked.
Zimba chuckled "There we go".
OOC: Teengagers..... :lol
-
They would have face-palmed, had they been capable of that. :slap
-
Tears started in Nahla's eyes,she lowered her head as she began sobbing....no one understood what storms or anything that sounded like one terrified her.
OOC: Will Grandma learn the truth of Nahla's storm fear? Dah dah daaaaaah.
-
Grandma glared at Zimba, before softly soothing the young female. :anger
"Breakfast-time." Grandpa repeated. This time it was not a suggestion, it was an order.
-
Littlefoot nodded,he was ready for breakfast..he wss looking forward to the whole day...well..expect the bath part.
Nahla leaned her head against Grandma sobbing,she whispered something that sounded quite like "I'm sorry mummy"
-
"It's alright, little one..." Grandma laid down, surrounding the youngster with her body.
-
"Is she okay?" Littlefoot asked concerned.
-
"She will be." Grandpa assured him, ushering the two boys away to give the females some space. "You know your grandma."
-
"Hey Grandpa Longneck" Zimba started saying "Why don't you give Littlefoot that bath now? You know before the mud becomes permanent" he suggested smirking,
Littlefoot glared at him for that.
-
"Ah, but it would only be fair if you joined him, now wouldn't it?" Grandpa pointed out.
"Calm down, dearie..." Grandma meanwhile whispered. "What has you so scared of storms?"
-
Zimba's face fell "Oh darn it"
Nahla gulped "Well...you see....the day my parents died...there...was....a really big....storm" she said between sobs.
-
"Consider it punishment." Grandpa stated, stopping in front of the lake. "Hop, in with you two."
"Oh dear..." Grandma nuzzled her again. "And now it reminds you of that day?"
-
"Punishment?" Zimba repeated "For what?"
Nahla just nodded still sobbing heavily.
-
OOC: I really should go do my groceries, but I am having too much fun! D:
"That." Grandpa looked back to the two females. "Do you think that she is simply scared of Storms? That is not how someone who is scared acts. That is how someone who is devestated acts."
Grandma said nothing for a moment, merely nuzzling her. "Do you want to talk about it?"
-
OOC: I should go to bed...but me think me will make 1 or 2 more posts..and see the end of this movie it got like 8 minutes left then I'm gonna turn off my tv and laptop and GO TO SLEEP.
"Devestated? What do storms got to do with her being devestated?" Zimba frowned in confusion.
"Maybe later...I'm not ready yet" Nahla sobbed.
-
OOC: and then I'll go get my groceries :D
"Well..." Grandpa thought for a bit. "Perhaps something bad happened to her during a storm? And now she remembers that whenever something reminds her of a storm. I myself still can't go through an Earth-shake without remembering that I lost my last child during a bad one."
"That is quite alright." Grandma assured her. "I will be there should you want it."
-
"That was my mother...." Littlefoot added sadly.
Zimba shrugged "What could of happened to her then?"
Nahla buried her head into Grandma,breaking down as she let out all the tears she been holding in since she met Zimba-she didn't want him thinking her as weak and leaving her. But she now let it out.
OOC: Ok,off I go to beddy land. And when I get back *point to Littlefoot* HE is taking a bath. Goodnight.
-
OOC: Gnight ^-^
"Well, she lost her parents, didn't she?" Grandpa shrugged lightly.
"Ssssh..." Grandma soothed the distraught female, resting her neck close to the small form.
-
"Yeah..." Zimba slowly said not catching on.
"Mummy!" Nahla let out a muffled scream as she still had her head buried in Grandma. She was in complete distress,.
-
OOC: HOW LITTLE DO YOU SLEEP!? o.O
"What if they were killed during a storm? A storm would then always remind her that she lost her parents. And from what I gather, she somewhat blames herself for that." Grandpa calmly explained, even as he nudged them into the water. "You might have given her a guilt-trip every time you woke her like this."
Grandma said nothing, merely letting the girl cry her little eyes out.
-
OOC: I'm looking after squealing 5 year olds who like to wake up 5 in the morning. And the time on here is like an hour behind anyway xD
Zimba went silent before whipping around and running off.Clearly mad Grandpa was saying it was HIM who made Nahla so upset. He knocked Littlefoot into the water as he turned
"Not again..." Littlefoot complained.
"It was all my fault!" Nahla cried.
-
OOC: what time is it with you then? :o
"You needed to get in there anyway." His grandfather reminded him as he watched the other youngster go. "I hope he does not leave the valley... or run into Threehorn."
"No." Grandma stated firmly, raising her neck again. "It was not. It was a terrible accident. No one is to blame."
-
OOC: 7:16am xD
Littlefoot had given up the battle "I give up!" he cried "I'll take a bath!"
Nahla stood up "Can I go sit somewhere for a while? By myself? I need time to you know...remember".
OOC: Grandma can finally give Littlefoot that bath wahahha
-
OOC: YAY! Too bad she isn't around for it.
"Finally." Grandpa chuckled lightly. "Was that so hard?"
"Of course, dear. Though might I suggest you go somewhere over there?" Grandma pointed in a certain direction. No use having the girl run into Threehorn after all. She could do without THAT piece of drama for a while. And where was that other boy going?
-
"Yes" Littlefoot commented.
Zimba had stopped moving and now lay by the watering in which Nahla,Littlefoot and he had their baths yesterday...well maybe not Littlefoot.
"Thank you" Nahla said sadly and walked in that direction tears trailing to the ground.
-
Grandpa laughed, the sound echoing in the area. "One day, you'll realize it is well-worth to take a bath once in a while."
"And whatever has you sitting here alone?" Grandma looked down on Zimba.
-
"Doubt that" Littlefoot said but continued to clean himself.
Zimba scoffed "That Grandpa blamed me for upseting Nahla!" he shouted "Well he didn't say it but he was hinting at it I'm sure..not my fault she is scared of storms like a baby"
OOC: Hope Grandma and Grandpa enjoy raising a moody teenager xD
-
OOC: is Zimba okay with how you have Zimba act here?
"We'll see." Grandpa promised.
"A bit more respect might be apropriate." Grandma coolly stated. "That Grandpa is still my husband... And as for Nahla, she is not 'scared of storms like a baby' and no doubt as her friend you ought to think better of her than that."
-
OOC: Yeah this is actually his true personality from her fic...old version anyway. He becomes nicer though.
Littlefoot was now spotless. Not a speck of mud or dirt on him.
Zimba didn't say anything,he just looked to the ground
-
"And now you are free for the rest of the week. Or until you get into the next mudpool, whatever happens first." Grandpa told him.
"You know, you remind me of a friend of my son." Grandma looked out over the valley.
-
"WHOOO HOO!" Littlefoot cheered sprinting out of the water jumping with excitment he was so happy he didn't noticed a distraught Nahla coming the other way till the two bashed heads.
"Who?" Zimba grumbled.
-
"You know, I figured he'd fall for girls a slightly different way." Grandpa muttered so softly only he heard. "Are you two alright?" He asked a bit louder.
"Cera." Grandma gestured with her head to the other side of the valley, the one she had pointed Nahla away from. "She too is quite rough and might even seem uncaring because of her brash nature - got that from her father -, but deep down she does care. I think you are just like her."
-
OOC: Great now I got Littlefoot getting a crush on Nahla stuck in my head beacause of Grandpa's comment-thanks xD.
"I'm fine" Nahla said quietly,tear stains on her face.
"i do care for Nahla it's just...." Zimba cut himself off.
-
OOC: Hey, can you blame the guy? xD
"But you are afraid to care too much in case she abandons you?" Grandma guessed.
-
"Yeah..." Zimba admitted "Or someone takes her away...or she gets hurt or killed..the more I care the more it'll hurt"
Littlefoot smiled at Nahla "Sorry I got over excited"
"Again" Nahla added actually smiling though her eyes were red from crying.
OOC: It would be soo cute if Littlefoot did fall in love with Nahla..though he'll prob pull stunts to try and impress her and she'll be like "what ever dude"
-
OOC: Isn't there a fanfic on FF.net where a Nahla becomes his girlfriend? xD
"And he can get worse." Grandpa budded in. "Which usually ends badly for either me or his grandmother."
"So you will never care?" Grandma asked. "That will be a lonely life, young one. And we Longnecks live long. Is that truly what you want?"
-
OOC: She is his girlfriend in fics but not really in RP..though i may change that...seeing as I change her backstory every RP it'll be different though. poor Littlefoot gonna get rejected 500 million times...kidding :lol
Nahla shook her head and with a shove she knocked Littlefoot back into the water "Thats what you get for hitting me in the head!" she said whipping around before going to find Grandma,
"I'm just scared because...everything I get really attached to gets taken away from me or I lose it in someway...like how my parents threw me out because they had another son they liked better then me..." Zimba sighed.
-
Grandpa tilted his head as he looked at his spluttering grandson. :^.^:
"Ah..." Grandma sighed. "I have lost much in my life, little one: my parents, my siblings, my children, very nearly once my husband. But I will not let that keep me away from enjoying what I do have, for however long that might be. You ought to neither." :yes
-
Littlefoot got out of the water and stared after Nahla,a dopey smile on his face..could he..be falling in love?
Zimba sighed "Thanks...I'll try" he smiled.
OOC: Oh Zimmy gonna love this when she comes back "What dah? I leave for ONE night and you make Littlefoot fall in love?" xD
-
OOC: Well, record the conversation, cause I am going to bed :p Gnight ^-^
And Grandpa was just enjoying the view...
"Can't do more than that." Grandma smiled.
-
OOC: Nighty night
"Grandpa?" Littlefoot asked "What does it mean when you think a girl is really pretty and special?" he realized what he was asking and blushed "Not that I'm thinking that or anything...'" he said in a very unconvincing tone.
-
OOC: Forgot to log off and shut down last night...oops. Littlefoot got a crush on Nahla? Hehehe cute
Zimba looked into the distance "I also feel like...I'm not what Nahla needs...like I fail her..she looks up to me,and I treat her like dirt most of the time...."
-
OOC: Le whoops...
"Well, let's say it like that..." Grandpa mused. "That's how I felt about your grandmother before marrying her and still do. Bron felt the same about your mother..."
"From what I gather she looks up to you." Grandma softly said. "She does seem to need and want you with her."
-
Zimba sighed again "Yeah but I pretty much gave her a heart attack this morning..I knew what would happen and I did it anyway..."
-
"So you're saying..I'm gonna MARRY Nahla?" Littlefoot said before he realized he pretty just admitted his crush on the new young female.
-
OOC: SORRY ZIMBA, I THOUGHT IT WAS YOUR TURN!!! :cry
"We all make mistakes." Grandma sagely told him.
"Maybe..." Grandpa said with a teasing smile. "It'll certainly feel good to tell Bron he'll be a grandfather."
-
OOC: It fine *pats and gives lollypop*
Zimba stood up "I think I better go say sorry to her..." he began to walk away to find the pink female.
OOC: By the way..where IS Nahla? Did she get swallowed by the ground or something? :lol
-
OOC: She around :D
Littlefoot blushed "What you talking about Grandpa?" he asked pretending he had no clue.
Nahla finally spotted Grandma and ran towards her,only to collide with Zimba. She shook her head "Grandma longneck!" she called.
-
OOC: Dun't like Nana anymore :cry
Grandpa said nothing, only laughing. :lol
Grandma tilted her head, turning to the young female. What was it with her being the go-to person for meaningfull talks!? Was Threehorn going to come up to her in a bit or what!? :confused
-
OOC: Poor Nana
"Umm Nahla?" Zimba started saying "Can I talk to you for a moment?"
-
Littlefoot once again charged forward headbutting Grandpa in the leg "You better not tell Nahla I love her..or I'll roll in the mud again" he play threatened not realizing HE would be the one suffering from that.
Nahla opened her mouth as she looked from Grandma to Zimba "Actually nevermind....I'll come back later" she began to turn but stopped tilting her head when she heard laughter coming from where Littlefoot and Grandpa werre.
-
Grandpa only laughed louder. It had been entirely too long since he had had this much fun.
And now she didn't understand anything anymore. Goodness, what was the Valley coming to?
-
Zimba shook his head and walked in that direction to see what was going on.
-
Littlefoot sighed "Grandpa?" he asked in a serious tone "How do I get Nahla to fall in love with ME?"
-
"It doesn't work like that, Littlefoot." Grandpa told him. "Either she does, or she doesn't." He spoke from experience on that one.
Grandma tilted her head, following the other two to where her husband apparently had heard the best joke of his life.
-
Zimba reached them but quickly hid behind a tree,he didn't want them knowing he was there..he wanted to know what they were saying though.
-
Littlefoot not noticing the others arriving sighed "Well how do I know if she loves me then?" he asked"I really like Nahla...I love her..she just gives me this feeling..like we are connected you know..."
Nahla overhearing nearly snorted with laughter but managed to cover it.
-
"She'll let you know." Grandpa told him.
And Grandma was now very certain that the Valley had been turned upside down.
-
Zimba couldn't hold in it-he burst out laughing..he wasn't laughing at a joke he was laughing AT Littlefoot...in a mean manner.
-
Littlefoot lowered his head in embarrassment. He turning to a bush and pretended to be eating.
Nahla tilted her head at him...that boy. Though she had to admit...she liked him..he was kinda cute..dirty and smelly most of the time..but cute..in a trouble making kind of way.
-
Grandma looked at Zimba disapprovingly, her glare enough to even send THREEHORN running.
Grandpa looked at his wife, then his grandson, then the girl. Ah... to be young.
-
OOC: Me and Nana are gonna post one more time then go to bed,it nearly midnight.
Zimba kept laughing only stopping when he saw Grandma "What?".
OOC: Night
-
Nahla shook her head before walking forward towards Littlefoot. Upon reaching him she reached out her neck and tapped him.
Littlefoot jumped ten feet in the air. "Oh hi....Nahla" he smiled he was completely lovestruck,he turned to the bush to grab a berry for the girl only to slip and tumble head first into it.
OOC: Yeah Littlefoot,that'll impress the girl :lol
-
The old female snorted disapprovingly in answer.
The old male meanwhile had to think back to an earlier couple, many, many Cold Times ago. Fond Memories...
-
OOC: Ugh nieces,,,why you wake me up?!!
Littlefoot came out of the bush and looked at Grandma,then Zimba,then Grandpa and finally Nahla before turning around and running off in embarrassment-he felt like he totaly messed THAT up.
-
With that Zimba burst into laughter all over again,he was laughing so hard he was nearly crying.
-
"Quite done yet?" Grandma lowered her head to Zimba's level.
-
"It's the funniest thing I ever heard!" Zimba snorted with laughter "As if Nahla would fall in love with a dirty unlistening,smelly brat like him...." he realized what he said too late.
OOC: He not trying to be mean,just seceretly he really protective of Nahla and wants the best for her.
-
Nahla glared at Zimba.
Meanwhile Littlefoot had stopped running,he now lay in the tall grass he was completely embarassed,theres no way Nahla would love him now.
-
And that's when Grandma stepped on Zimba, crushing him to pulp. THE END
Ps: "What. Did you just call my grandson?" Her voice was calm, perfectly controlled. Like the quiet two seconds before a pack of Fast Biters was nibbling on your unsuspecting ass.
-
OOC:...... :spit
Zimba gulped "Ummm...nothing" he said quietly.
-
"Maybe...maybe I DO love Littlefoot!" Nahla shouted without realizing "Sure 99% of the time he is covered in mud..but under that...I like him..." she just now realized "Umm pretend I never said that"
-
"Ah... The joy of first loves..." Grandpa walked up to his wife, nuzzling her in an attempt to calm her. "Now, now dear, don't step on the boy. He's just like Threehorn: speaks without thinking."
-
"But really..." Zimba started saying again 'Why would Nahla want to be HIS girlfriend? He isn't good enough for her and never will be!"
OOC: Zimba still hasn't learned...
-
"Thanks for letting me speak for myself with my own opinion" Nahla muttered under her breath.
-
And suddenly the Valley was treated to the sight of a flying Longneck. THE END AGAIN.
Ps: "I think he is even worse than Threehorn." Grandma dryly stated. "At least Threehorn can tell when someone is protecting his ass from a world of hurt."
"True that, I suppose." Grandpa raised an eyebrow at Zimba.
-
Zimba turned to the pink girl "Nahla...stay away from.....him or it whatever it is..he just gets into trouble...and he'll bring you down with him"
OOC: God,what is happening here? :lol
-
OOC: At this rate Zimba is going to get himself killed! o.O
-
OOC: Grandma and Grandpa won't really do that....would they?
Hearing enough Nahla stood up and took off to go find Littlefoot who had long since ran off.
-
OOC: HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW!? I am just rolling along here D:
"I think SOMEONE needs a talking too." Grandpa darkly said. "I do think Grandma is correct." :anger
-
Zimba started backing off but not before yelling "What ever! You can't tell me what to do!" he turned completely and ran.
OOC: Thought I'd get Zimba out of there before Grandma makes longneck pancake out of him.
-
Meanwhile Nahla ran around the valley "LITTLEFOOT! she called looking everywhere.
-
"I go after him, you go after them?" One of the two said. The other nodded and so they parted ways.
-
Zimba sprinted through the valley filled with anger. Maybe he should just find Nahla and leave with her...then again. He looked over his shoulder she WAS really happy here.
-
OOC: and then he ran into Threehorn, and all hell breaks loose. You know, that might be interesting, actually :p
-
OOC: Lets do it! Who wants to be Threehorn?
Littlefoot heard Nahla's calls and sighed. Why did she have to be so pretty? Darn girl making him fall in love with her.
-
OOC: I can do that?
Threehorn was just munching on some groundstars when he heard someone running along. Whoever it was was getting closer. He half-turned, seeing a strange Longneck-child approach him.
-
Zimba didn't notice the threehorn till it was too late "Woah!" he exclaimed as he crashed into the grey theehorns side.
-
Littlefoot came out of the bush only once again trip over a log..only this time he didn't fall into mud..he ended up crashing into Nahla who was just standing there and it looked like the two were kissing each other on the lips.
OOC: Daww dino love
-
"And where were you going?" Threehorn turned to face the youngster, growling as he spoke. "More importantly, don't you have eyes in your head?"
"I'll just leave them to it." The old Longneck looked at Littlefoot and Nahla. "It seems he has it covered."
-
"Gee keep your horns on old dude..I'm going" he began to walk away.
OOC: Oh no...Zimba didn't....
-
OOC: I am beginning to wonder how he is going to survive long enough to settle in >-<
-
Nahla broke away staring at Littlefoot.
Littlefoot chuckled smiling..he really loved her...he...ow.
Nahla slapped him in the head thinking he kissed her on purpose and stormed off.
OOC: Sorry had to
-
"Or not..." Littlefoot's grandparent watched her storm off.
Ever so briefly a vein twitched in the Threehorn's face. "EXCUSE ME!?" Half a valley away flyers flew up, fearing something had happened. One lone Longneck was meanwhile hoping the anger-explosion did not include a certain youngster.
OOC: I'll go dig a grave then.
-
"I said" Zimba said just tuning his head "Keep your horns on,you're like freaking out at nothing" with that said he began walking forward again.
-
Littlefoot sighed sadly watching Nahla leave,he stood up and began walking back to the resting place not nocting the old longneck till he walked into him.
-
OOC: I throw the Towel... I give up... Zimba, you can just die for all I care, I cannot dael with your suicidal tendencies anymore...
Grandma could only blink in disbelief. :blink: He just hadn't... Oh goodness...
"Mayhap you should go talk to her." Grandpa lowered his head to the level of his grandson.
-
OOC: Why he acting like this shall be revealed in time
Zimba left their sights he muttered under his breath "Stupid threehorn"
-
"Can't you talk to her?" Littlefoot complained.
-
OOC: I hope before my Threehorn-writing-skills involve charging straight ahead >< Which they do at the moment, so HALP!
"I am sorry, but this is something everyone has to deal for by themselves." Grandpa told Littlefoot.
-
OOC: He likes Nahla...you know like like...weird guy
Zimba looked around the valley "NAHLA!" he called,they were getting out of here wherever Nahla liked it or not.
-
OOC: Oh very good Zimba has a crush on Nahla...wait...WHAT?!!! :o
"But Grandpa" Littlefoot said 'I'll just mess up again"
-
OOC: Can someone take Threehorn, Zimba is really stretching my 'angry, yet barely not charging'-writeskills to their limit... D:
-
OOC: Nahla can xD (it your turn btw Sleepu)
-
OOC: Going to bed now... *rolls away*
"THAT..." Grandpa booped his nose with his tailtip. "is simply growing up. You do not want to know how often I messed up before your grandmother said 'yes' to me."
-
OOC: Night
"NAHLA!" Zimba screamed top of his lungs looking for the female.
-
"Can you at least help me FIND her then?" Littlefoot asked.
Nahla heard Zimba and headed in that direction wondering what he wanted THIS time.
-
"That I can." Grandpa told him, before lifting his head up. "Let's see. Ah, I think I see her over there."
Grandma meanwhile was torn between warning Zimba that he might want to pay attention to the fuming Threehorn and just... not doing that and seeing when he'd notice on his own.
-
OOC: Laying in bed in jeans,shirt and cowboy hat...as normal people do :lol
Littlefoot walked on before spotting her...well she was hard to miss. She was a bright pink thing against bright green grass. Littlefoot started backing off "Umm I've changed my mind..." he said chickening out.
OOC: Listen to this by the way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRx9gnY0Mp0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRx9gnY0Mp0) it so calming :D
-
Zimba finally spotted Nahla...but he also saw Grandpa and Littlefoot and snarled. He backed off though seeing how this will play out....Littlefoot just better not take Nahla for himself.
OOC: There a valid reason why Zimba a jerk to Littlefoot-he trying to take what he thinks is his girl..though Grandma must wanna chuck him off the great wall now.
-
OOC: Grandma at the moment is watching Threehorn get more and more fumy in anger at the moment xD
Grandpa used his tail to block Littlefoot's escape. "That way nothing will be solved."
-
Littlefoot sighed and began walling forward again only to back up once more when Nahla walked towards HIM.
Nahla didn't realize as she kept her gaze to the ground,she crashed head first into Grandpa. She rubbed her head not knowing what hit her...or what she hit more like it.
-
Zimba narrowed his eyes and edged closer not liking what was happening here.
-
OOC: Gotta applaud Threehorn's restraint here. I'd have written him to charge several times already... Or did Nana forget she was the one leading him by Zimmy's orders? :lol
"Hello to you too, Nahla." Grandpa greeted the young female that had walked against him even as he used his tail to stop Littlefoot's retreat once more.
-
OOC: I'm Mr Threehorn?!! Why no one tell me?!!
"Hi Grandpa Longneck" the female sighed "Hi Littlefoot' she added with a glance.
"H-h-h-i N-n-n-n-Nahla" Littlefoot stammered blushing.
Nahla shook her head "Sorry I slapped you before,here is something to make up for it.." she walked forward and gave Littlefoot a quick kiss on the cheek.
OOC: Dawwwww
-
OOC: Yes,yes you are Nana
That was it..the end of the line for Zimba. He stopped his foot and got ready to charge and beat Littlefoot into tomorrow-how DARE he take Nahla off him? Nahla was HIS girl not Littlefoot's.
-
OOC: It was said just about 10 posts ago XD
Grandma's eyes narrowed as she watched the youngster prepare to charge her grandson.
Grandpa meanwhile had to do his very best to not laugh at the look on Littlefoot's face.
-
"Ahh..." Littlefoot chukled looking to the ground,but his heart was fluttering..she kissed him! He looked up at Grandpa smiling "Grandpa..she kiss-" he got cut off when the wind got knocked out of him.
OOC: Go ahead Zimmy,do what you been yapping about on Facebook <_<
-
OOC: Cue angry Grandma....
Zimba rammed into Littlefoot pinning him to the ground "SHE'S MY GIRL FREAK!" he screamed not letting Littlefoot up "Stay away from her!".
-
OOC: Apparently Threehorn is enjoying the show? Or he got eaten by Sharpteeth...
:anger If there was one thing that was a poorer idea than insulting Littlefoot, it was attacking him in front of his grandfather. Grandma never even got the chance to be angry, because her husband had already whipped Zimba off of the younger male with his tail, sending him flying a couple of yards.
"Let's not have this descend into voilence, shall we?" Grandpa said with a lethal calm in his voice. His eyes were dangerous slits, burning with anger.
-
OOC: He in lala land? Oi,Nana FOCUS ON YOUR JOB GIRL
Zimba slowly picked himself up and walked forward panting glaring at Grandpa "And what was THAT for?!!"
-
OOC: I NO WANNA...but fine
Mr Threehorn heard the shouts and headed towards it,he was surprised to see a longneck child go flying. He then realized it was the same one from before,with a snort he began charging forward.
Littlefoot sat up rubbing one of his legs with his tail,a large bruise and cut was on it,a small drop of blood dripped from the wound.
Nahla was freaked,she began backing away slowly.
OOC: Littlefoot only have injury for next few posts till we timeskip so no worries...though I think I just hired Zimba's killer....ooops
-
OOC: Yeah, how are we going to keep anyone from killing Zimba. Grandpa is angry, grandma is angry and Threehorn is charging... O-O
"It is one thing to not like someone." Grandma spoke up. "It is another to attack them and call them names."
It was then that she heard someone charge. Who ever it was, he or she was a lot bigger than Zimba...
-
Zimba pointed at the clearly injured Littlefoot,not realizing HE caused it "HE took my girl! That's just as wrong!" he shouted,suddenly he turned and saw a threehorn bearing down at him,he screamed and jumped to the side.
-
The threehorn was about to ram the child when he moved,he ended up getting Nahla instead.
Nahla wasn't badly hurt luckily,besides a scrape on her side. She kept low to the ground,too freaked out what was happening around her too move.
OOC; We should maybe timeskip in 4 or 5 posts....before Nahla totally flips out.
-
"Threehorn!" Both elder Longnecks screamed as one. Grandpa quickly took a few steps forward to put his grandson and the girl between his legs even as Grandma for the moment ignored her anger at Zimba and did likewise for him. "What is the meaning of this?"
OOC: That would be okay with me too :p
-
"HE" the threehorn nodded towards Zimba "Ran into me a earlier..I thought I outta teach him some respect "Him and his little girlfriend too" he stared at Nahla now. He overheard the whole 'it's my girl' thing.
-
Zimba scoffed but didn't say anything,instead he just kept glaring at Littlefoot...at first he thought they could be friends...like brothers...now all he could think him as was a rival.
-
OOC: On the other hand, Nana is writing Threehorn just as I would have done xD
"You don't teach children respect by throwing them around the Valley." Grandma admonished him.
"Besides, Nahla here has done nothing to deserve your wrath to begin with." Grandpa added coolly.
-
"Well it was okay for YOU to whip him flying wasn't it?" the threehorn challenged staring at Zimba and then Nahla kicking dust up into her face.
Nahla coughed from the dust.
-
OOC: Nana,you're making him a total jerk xD
Zimba narrowed his eyes clearly ticked off that he attacked his girl.
-
"Because he attacked our grandson." Grandpa's eyes narrowed. "Now if you would kindly leave this to us? I am certain you have better things to do then threaten the young ones."
-
"GRRR" the threehorn growled but storming off...unwillingly.
Nahla looked over to Littlefoot and poked Grandpa's leg "Umm Grandpa Longneck? Littlefoot is in pain".
OOC: Time to start wrapping up childhood guys.
-
Zimba stood up and walked off growling under his breath..Nahla will be his...they'll see....they'll see.
-
They watched him go, before turning their attention to their grandson and the young girl at his side.
-
"I better go after him....or he'll just rage" Nahla said standing up,she looked over to Littlefoot and gave him another kiss "Stay out of the mud" she giggled walking off.
Littlefoot just held his tail on the cheek the girl kissed blushing.
-
OOC: Well, you guys can have some one-on-one time between the youngsters now, cause I gotta go to University :p
His Grandparents chuckled at his expression, not saying a word about how worried they were about the other young male.
TIME-SKIP!!!!
-
OOC: Zimmy can,me poopped me going to bed. Bye/Night
A now teenaged Littlefoot awoke one morning,he looked over to his sleepinh Grandparents and sighed. He was worried about them. They were getting older. He stood up and began walking over to them,he had nearly tripled in height,his foorsteps no longer soft...more like stompy.
-
Zimba watched Nahla sleep,he smiled he LOVED that female. She was his childhood crush and still is his crush. But he planned to make her more then that..like girlfriend...no...WIFE. Yeah that sounded better..there was only one annoying problem...another male also attracted to Nahla....Littlefoot.
-
They were slow to wake. They had been for Cold Times. After old Thicknose's death they were now the oldest residents in the Valley by far. And it showed, on Grandpa more than on Grandma, despite her being the older one - or so the male claimed.
-
Littlefoot smiled"Good morning Grandma,Good morning Granda" he said is his now deep voice "Shall I get you some treestars for breakfast?" he asked. Lately he had been feeling his duty to look atfter them.
Nahla awoke and looked around. Screaming her head off when she saw a guy staring at her. She only calmed down a little when she saw it just just Zimba-her childhood friend.
-
"Thank you, dear, but I think we can get them ourselves today." Grandma warmly chuckled, reaching to nuzzle him. "Slept well?"
-
Littlefoot nodded "Yeah,I had lovely sleep stories" he smiled getting a farway look in his eyes.
OOC: Grandma or Grandpa should be like "OOOOOH,where they about Nahla?" xD
-
OOC: I hate my university :anger You can be the oldest and best Uni of a country, but if you keep skrewing over your students, that won't help you in the long run ><
His grandparents shared an amused glance as they hoisted themselves onto their feet. "I guess we don't need to ask the subject?"
OOC: Sooo... is that 'Zimba parents pop in' still on the the table?
-
OOC: *Pat pat* and yes,yes it is.
Littlefoot blushed "Oh a few things... dad,you's,mother....one where the sky water turned into treesweets" he tilted his head at that"But the best one was about.....Nahla...beautiful sweet Nahla...oh how I love her...I am just dying to ask her out on a date or something" the male now realized what he was saying and blushed again "Umm...can pretand I never said that?'
-
OOC: I really, really wanna vent. Can I do that here?
They laughed at that.
"Ah, reminds you of someone, doesn't he?" Grandpa looked at Grandma.
"Why yes, you, dear." She chuckled, much to her husbands consternation.
-
OOC: :yes sure,let it all out.
Littlefoot looked behind him then back to his Grandparents,"But I'm serious...I want her..." he cut off dyadreaming of the girl who came to the valley many coldtimes ago as a child along with her 'best friend' Zimba...ZIMBA. Littlefoot suddenly rose up and bought his feet back to the ground with a heavy thump at the thought of Zimba,he HATED him and Littlefoto hardly ever hated anyone...but he was always trying to worm his way into Nahla's heart..it ticked Littlefoot off.
-
OOC: I WANT FREETIME AROUND CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!! *wail*
And there went his good mood. That was less like Grandpa had been. He never had had to compete for her heart. Now BRON on the other hand...
-
"Sorry Grandma and Grandpa" Littlefoot said after he calmed down "It just I love Nahla so much...I don't want anyone else to have her.
OOC: *Pats and gives candy cane*
-
OOC: *chews on candy cane and cries an ocean* Just a few days... They don't even give me a few days :'(
"Your father was just like that." Grandpa told him.
"Too bad the others agreed with him." Grandma muttered.
-
"Zimba doesn't deserve her! He...UGH" Littlefoot lowered himself to the ground looking at Grandpa "Grandpa? How did you get Grandma to go on a date with you?" he asked forgetting that said grandma was right there.
-
"Well, first I send some Night Circles being completely nervous." Grandpa thought back to that time as his mate was chuckling beside him. "Then she stood in front of me demanding I get a move on and ask her already before she send her big brother on my ass."
"Though I phrased it better." She interceded. "All you can do is just ask her, Littlefoot. Nothing more or less."
-
Littlefoot nodded "I think I'll do that" he smiled and stood up and got ready to go find her only to lay down again hiding his head "I can't do it....what if she says no?"
-
"Then you have certainty." Grandpa soothed him. "Your mother was very much in Nahla's position. Several males wanted her, but only your father got her. And they all managed to move on. Some even looked relieved even as she turned them down, because now they knew."
-
Zimba edged towards Nahla smiling and rubbed his head against her "Hello beautiful" he said looking into her clear blue eyes..he wanted her soo bad.
-
Nahla backed off feeling uneasy "Zimba..." she said "Can you stop doing this? It kinda freaks me out'
Littlefoot rose his head and stood up "Thats it...I'm gonna ask her....right now"
-
"Good luck." Grandpa stated, smiling at his wife.
-
Zimba chuckled and walked close to her again "Aww don't be like that" he smiled "I just want you so bad..and can you blame me? You're the most beautiful creature that ever lived"
-
Littlefoot nodded"Thanks Grandma and Grandpa" he walked off soon reaching Nahla...and oh gret...ZIMBA was there,he just shook it off off though and kept going up to the female. His heart was beating a minute, "Nahla?" he questioned timidly "I know this will be a bit random but...I...I love you...you're very beautiful and I was wondering if you wanted to go out...on a...date?" he smiled.
Nahla smiled,she might as well go out with him,....he at least took baths now. "Oh Littlefoot....I'll love to-" she was cut off by a loud yelp of pain-that came from Littlefoot.
-
This time his Grandparents were not in range, not hearing his yelp or what was surely to follow.
Instead a black form watched from the shadows in the nearby forest.
-
Zimba had reared up and bought all his weight crashing down onto Littlefoot's back "I said..SHE'S MY GIR;! he rammed him with his head and wrapped his tail around his neck-he was actually trying to KILL him.
OOC: Ok now this is just getting violent...
-
OOC; Ya think?!!
Littlefot gasped in shock and tried breaking away but Zimba had his tail so tight around his throat any slight movement sucked a lot of air out of his body-Zimba was quite literally choking him to death.
Nahla panicked "HELP!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
-
OOC: Dude, is Zimba always like this!?
In answer a tail swung forward, wrapping itself around Zimba's neck, pulling with enough force to force him to let go of Littlefoot to move along lest HE get choked to dead.
It was neither Grandma nor Grandpa Longneck that loomed over the youngsters. The Longneck that stood there was a perfect black, red-brown eyes and a scar running down almost the entire length of his body. Smaller scars littered the rest of his body.
-
OOC: Yes,Zimba is actually not a good guy at all. He is an evil villain...I should of said that earlier hah?
Zimba glared at the longneck "Let me go freak!" he managed to choked out.
-
OOC: Yes -_-
-
Littlefoot managed to slink away towards to where his Grandparents were. He arrived on the scene still making choking sounds and gasping for breath. A large cut ran along his back showing he been hit heavily.
-
"Littlefoot!" His grandmother exclaimed in horror. "What happened!?"
"Don't think so, boy." The Black Longneck darkly stated, eyes narrowed even as he held on to the other's neck. "You remind me of someone in my youth, boy. I never liked him."
OOC: Uh... Zimba, you might wanna get your neck out of there somehow o.O
-
"Zimba...."Littlefoot said "Attacked me....I asked Nahla out and she said yes...then...he...just..attacked" he paused to control his breathing a tad "After that he just wrapped his tail around my throat and...choked me..." after that he let himself fall to the ground. He was fine though besides in bit of shock.
"Please sir" Nahla begged stepping forward "Let him go" the female cried,she was already scared half to death at what she saw already. Tears poured down her face.
-
Zimba tried to break free however that only caused himself to choke even more.
-
"I think we can safely say he has gone to far now..." Grandma looked from her wounded grandson to her mate, who nodded in agreement even as he checked over the younger male.
After looking briefly at the female, the elder male tightened his grip on Zimba's neck. "I do not like Leafeaters that kill other Leafeaters, boy. And I will not forgive. Begone." He abruptly straightened his tail, flinging the other away.
-
Zimba glanced at the black longneck before whipping around and sprinting off.
-
Littlefoot closed his eyes before quicky reopening "Wait a minute...I left Nahla there both with Zimba and the creepy black guy!"
Nahla stared at the black longneck in wonder she looked in the direction Zimba went then back at the older male.
-
"Creepy black guy?" Grandma echoed.
He snorted in disdain, before turning to the young female - and several other dinosaurs who had come as they heard the struggle and screams.
OOC: Volunteers? xD
-
Nahla looked at him even more "Why did you do that?" she asked.
Littlefoot nodded "Yeah he was pure black,had reddish brown eyes and all these scars....he saved me by pulling Zimba off me...."
-
Zimba stopped running and looked behind him. He swore that guy will pay....
OOC: Why do I have a feeling Zimba pretty much signed his own death
-
OOC: Because he at least will get kicked out of the Valley? ps: any volunteers for other Valley-residents? I doubt that went unnoticed xD
"Where was this?" Grandma demanded, a terrible feeling rising in her stomach.
"Was I supposed to let him kill that other boy?" The old male coolly stated.
-
OOC: SIgh...I'll be Threehorn
Mr Threehorn snorted "Oh that Littlefoot was nothing but trouble anyway..maybe being choked is just what he needed"
That angered Nahla greatly she stomped her foot and charged ramming into the threehorn,forgetting the masisve age and strength difference.
The threehorn just cut the females side before shoving,Nahla was no match for him "Now thats taken care of..who are you?'
Nahla sobbed staring at her bleeding side,she was in pain and completely terrified.
Littlefoot tilted his head "By the meadow of the colourful flowers...you know where Nahla normally sleeps at night? There".
OOC: There,hell has broken loose. And me gonna go take shower.
-
OOC: Sorry,dooggy got out had to chase him.
Zimba was headed towards where Littlefoot was with his Grandparents...ready to finish him off once and for alll
-
OOC: Isse okay, gotta go to bed now. You guys can steal LF's grandparents if you wanna go on, but I have the feeling you'd have no clue what to do with Blackie (not actual name, just saying)
Grandpa and Grandma hurried to the field Littlefoot had told them they needed to be. Just be in time to see a sight the Valley had never seen before: Threehorn being attacked by a fully grown Longneck.
"Oh no..."
-
OOC: Night
Zimba reached the scene to find Littlefoot alone,he smirked and walked up to him. Before the other male could attack him. Zimba raised his foot and smashed Littlefoot right in the head.
OOC: Yeah that will get you like Zimba
-
OOC: Night,and no Zimba no it not
Littlefoot didn't have a chancd to figure out what happened before his mind blacked out.
Threehorn tried to fight the longneck "Gee whats wrong with you?!!" he asked with a snarl.
Nahla looked around and spotted Grandma and Grandpa "GRANDMA AND GRANDPALONGNECK!" she called clear pain and fear in her voice.
OOC: Oh I am sure knocking out their grandson is gonna make Grandma and Grandpa loooooooooooooove Zimba.
-
OOC: I am really getting the feeling you WANT someone to KILL Zimba >-<
"I do not like Threehorns. Especcially not when they threaten children." The black stranger snarled, ignoring the cries and screams around them.
The two elder Longnecks were frozen in horror, Grandma only moving again when the cries of Nahla reached her brain.
-
OOC: I actually do....I'm such a jerk
"Get...lost" the threehorn snarled.
Nahla now dropped her head her fear overcoming her pain. But she jerked her head again when she saw something in the distance....Zimba standing over a motionless Littlefoot "Oh no..." she whispered and looked up at Grandma before glancing back at the two teenaged males.
-
Zimba stared down at the unconscious Littlefoot laughing,however Zimba not being the smartest creature ever thought the unconscious form was actually dead he smiled at Littlefoot's body "Mess.With.Me"
OOC: Zimba= :crazy
-
OOC: Soooooo... Would someone be a dear and actually point my characters attention to the Littlefoot/Zimba drama over there xD
"No." He tailwhipped at the horned dinosaur again. The sound of breaking bones sounded across the field... and a female's cry of pain. Grandma had taken the hit, with devestating results.
-
OOC: Noooooo not Grandma NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOO NOOOO SCREW YOU BLACK LONGNECK
"Grandma Longneck!" Nahla cried hastly standing up "Grandpa Longneck! Zimba has gotten Littlefoot,go help him!" she turned to the black male "I'll deal with him..." lost in her foolishness of youth she charged him ramming him.
OOC: Nahla has finally flipped...I saw this coming. Though doubt she doing much damage more like flea bites.
-
Zimba happy with what he done and began to walk away..no one would know it was him.
-
OOC: Do we have a giant first-aid-kit somewhere? D:
Blinded with pain the old female registered nothing beside her broken ribs at the moment.
The black male meanwhile backed off, eyes wide as he regarded the trembling female in front of him. He didn't even quite feel the little girl charge him.
"What...?" Grandpa tore his eyes away from his wife to look over his shoulder to where his grandson was. Oh, come on... Torn between wife and child, in the end he choose child, roaring his anger and frustration at the retreating form of Zimba.
-
Zimba spotted Grandoa and snarled breaking into a run.
-
Nahla stomped her foot before once again charging,she was angered more then anything however she suddenly got jerked back by a threehorn.
Mr Threehorn stood on the young females tail "Oh look what you done now" he nodded towards Grandma "I suggest you leave..and quickly" he looked down at Nahla before shoving her again "I swear ever since that little brat and her boyfriend came here we have had nothing bout trouble"
-
"And you are such a help, I can already tell." The black Longneck snarled. "I do not know if you noticed, but I hurt her because of you, thrice-damned Threehorn!"
Yes, he was old. Yes, he was too big to run. No, he could not be outpaced. For every 5 steps Zimba took, he took one. And for the first time in a very long time, there was murder in his eyes.
-
Mr Threehorn snorted and walked off in a huff.
Nahla stared after him trembling,she had NO clue what was happening.
-
Zimba tripped he looked behind him glaring at Grandpa "What do YOU want?!!" he shouted.
-
Grandma was coughing, trembling over her entire body. Suddenly there was someone supporting her.
"First you attack him, call him names and now this!?" Grandpa countered sharply. "What do you expect me to do, Zimba? Ignore all this and walk away?"
-
"Here an idea-go dig his grave...he kinda needs one" Zimba smirked before realizing what he said..he pretty much gave away he was Littlefoot's 'killer'.
-
"I'm sorry" Nahla suddenly said "This is all my fault..if Littlefoot and Zimba didn't want me this would not of happened"
-
OOC: ZIMMY, HOW THE CRAP DO YOU WANT HIM TO SURVIVE LONG ENOUGH TO GET HIS PARENTS HERE!?
-
"I think we can safely say that that other boy has some problems even without that." The Black male muttered, looking over to where Grandpa's form could be vaguely seen in the distance. "Word of advice, girl, someone that is willing to kill is not a good match."
"You do realize that at this rate you will need your own?" Grandpa snarled, tail whipping from side to side in his anger.
-
Nahla sighed "Sorry for...attacking you" she said "I thought you hurt Grandma on purpose and got mad"
-
OOC: *Shrugs*
Zimba laughed "Oh yeah,you would SOOO hurt a young one..not" he got up and began walking away.
-
OOC: Shouldn't you be a bit more attached to your own OC's? XD
"A good trait to have." He helped the old female to lay down. "Now, I do believe we never got introduced, did we?" He added as he checked her wounds. "Doesn't seem to be a bad break, thank goodness."
Oh, he was right. Grandpa would never hurt a young one. Too bad for Zimba he was already (close to being) a teenager. Plus, he hurt Littlefoot one time to many. He whipped his tail forward, hitting him in the side. Hard.
-
Nahla lowered her head and watched them "Um...Grandma longneck?" she said almost like she was gonna regret telling this to the injured female "Zimba....got.....to..." she paused for a moment "Littlefoot...'
-
OOC: I personally kinda hate Zimba too xD he was my main OC at first but now he the antagonist of my new OC'S story which not posted here. I just used Zimba in this cause it goes with Nahla...Simba/Nala...Zimba/Nahla...
Zimba scremed he had broken a rib,he glared at Grandpa "What was that for?!!"
-
OOC: I think at this rate you need to introduce a new OC soon :p
"Take a guess..." Grandpa said with a voice devoid of emotion, once again tailwhipping the other. "I am calm." Tailwhip. "I am controlled." Tailwhip. "And that was my grandson." Tailwhip.
"I heard..." Grandma ground out. "Not deaf enough... to miss that."
-
OOC: Littlefoot gonna be out cold for a while..sorry just having those moods again.... PS: Can I please murder my brother?
"Right...sorry" Nahla said quietly facing the other way.
-
OOC: Most likely :lol lets see if he survives this one....
And yes Nana,you may
"Oh" Zimba snarled pretending he didn't feel the extreme pain from the tail whips "What happened to your grandson?'
-
OOC: Doubt it, Zimba. And not sure if Murder is the right solution. What's the problem, Nana?
"You hurt him." Grandpa stated. "Thank goodness you're not capable of actually killing anything."
"It's... alright..." Grandma whispered. "Your tail... grew stronger." She looked at the black male at her side.
"He had it coming..." He darkly muttered.
-
OOC: Sibling rivalry,parents fighting,saying it my fault,I'm worthless...sigh a typical day....
Suddenly a loud rumble filled the sky. Nahla jerked her head up and began panting...to her bad things happened in storms. She been that way since a very young age and has not outgrown it..at all.
-
"Don't you know? I killed Littlefoot" Zimba stood up and began walking away hearing the distant sounds of a storm "Go to the resting place...you'll find his completely motionless body" he laughed and walked on into the distance but clearly in serve pain.
-
OOC: *HUGS Nana*
Grandma carefully raised her neck to look at the storm. "Come here, Nahla..." She whispered.
Grandpa said nothing, watching him go. "I think you might want to turn around and look at him yourself. Littlefoot is still breathing."
-
Nahla was too terrified to move,she started sobbing as the rumbling grew louder and a flash of skyfire filled the air. Only Grandma would know what she was acting like this.
-
Zimba whipped his head around "He is?" he walked past Grandpa and towards Littlefoot "Well I better fix that" he broke into a sprint ignoring his shattered ribs and ran towards Littlefoot as skywater began pouring.
-
"Be right back." The black Longneck got to his feet.
"Come here." Grandma repeated towards Nahla.
-
Nahla got to her feet and timidly walked over to Grandma looking around in panic,though she was a teenager now she still hasn't lost that memory...that horrid memory.
-
Zimba reached Littlefoot and wasted no time in wrapping his tail around his throat once more,he smirked as he began to strangle him.
OOC: Let me guess? Cue black longneck? :lol
-
oOC: Jup, also... Did Zimba just change gender!? o.O Dude... Never knew Dino's could be gay :rofl:
"We're going to make a habit of this, aren't we?" The black stranger wrapped HIS tail around Zimba's neck. "Let go, or I will break it."
Grandpa walked up as well, regarding the scene in front of him.
"Come lie beside me." Grandma told her. "Careful with the ribs though."
-
OOC: :spit what? The whole time Zimba was a GIRL?!!
Nahla carefully lay beside Grandma sobbing as the skywater pelted down.
-
OOC: Typo
"No" Zimba said "YOU let go or I'll break LITTLEFOOT'S neck' he tilted the other males head to the side to prove his point "Next time it gonna be for real" he warned.
OOC: Zimba vs Stranger DING DING
-
OOC: Sure it was.... *suspicious glare* God, I got the worst idea in my head now xD
Grandpa stepped forward, resting his own foot on Zimba's back. "You let go, or I will put weight on it." To proof his point he lightly leaned on it already.
"It's okay, Nahla. Nothing will happen to you here." Grandma softly soothed, ignoring the pain in her ribs.
-
"I'm worried" the female admitted "ABout Littlefoot and Zimba....oh Grandma what if Littlefoot is DEAD?!! What if ZIMBA KILLED HIM?!!"
Littlefoot's breathing was getting slower and slower,he really was slowly suffocating.
OOC: Someone get Zimba off my Littlefoot,PLEASE
-
"No" Zimba snarled "Now...say goodbye to Littlefoot" he got ready to snap his neck.
OOC: Stranger...YOU LITTLEFOOTS LAST HOPE
-
OOC: Nope :p
The two older males shared a quick glance. The black one pulled at Zimba's neck and Grandpa now put his foot down -literally.
*CRACK*
"I don't think Grandpa will let that happen." Grandma muttered.
-
OOC: Did...you just kill Zimba?
Nahla jumped when she heard the crack..it didn't sound a storm...more like the snapping of bones.
-
Zimba's motionless body dropped limply to the ground...and this time...he never got back up.
OOC: Zimba finally get what he deserve?
-
OOC: I Dunno! I just... I just wanted him to break a bone!!!! :cry *guilt-sob*
"Oh, that sounded bad..." Grandma muttered, hoisting her neck up.
The two elder males stepped back, looking at the two youngsters on the ground.
-
OOC:He may not be dead...you can actually survive a broken neck and it heals.
"It came from your resting place" Nahla told Grandma in panic and stood up.
-
Zimba was lightly breathing,even though his neck had been snapped. His breathing was so light...it was impossible to see it..he was pretty much dead in anyones eyes.
-
OOC: I didn't kill him? *hopefull dewy eyes look out of pillow-fort*
"Stay here." Grandma ordered. "Let Grandpa deal with it."
"My, he has seen better days, hasn't he?" The black stranger looked over Littlefoot.
-
OOC: No,no you didn't *pats*'
Nahla obeyed but was distressed about it.
Littlefoot moaned a sign he was slowing regaining consciousness.
-
Zimba however showed no signs of movement as whole Littlefoot was getting consciousness he was LOSING it.
-
OOC: yay ^-^
"Littlefoot..." Grandpa nudged him carefully. "Wake up..."
-
Littlefoot opened his eyes with another moan,there were clear marks on his neck from where Zimba grabbed him and slightly bleeding wound from where he knocked him out.
-
"How are you feeling?" Grandpa asked softly, shielding his grandson from the worst of the downpour with his body.
-
The teenaged male groaned "Sore...what even happened" he asked blinking a few times.
-
"Zimba attacked you." Grandpa stated. "Can you move your legs?"
The black stranger remained where he was like a statue, rain running down his body.
-
"I'll try" he tried but couldn't,he had temporary feeling loss in his legs..and everywhere else..he was really numbed up but he kept trying as to not worry his Grandpa.
-
"It's alright." Grandpa soothed him. "Can you help me carry him away from here? I don't think he broke anything..."
"Let's hope he didn't." The other male uttered, still stepping up to help.
-
Littlefoot just laid his head on the ground,his body trying to get over the shock.
-
They carefully carried him over to where Grandma and Nahla were.
"What happened?" Grandma softly demanded as they laid him down on the ground beside her. Grandpa told them.
-
Nahla froze "Where...where is he?" she asked "Wheres Zimba?"
Littlefoot just groaned in reply of the sound of that name.
-
"At the resting place." Grandpa told her, settling down beside his wife.
-
Littlefoot groaned as sudden pain shot up his side he gritted his teeth as it happened again and again "Dang it this hurts...." Littlefoot complained.
-
"You most likely bruised your ribs." Grandpa told him. "Try not to move them to much."
-
"I should go check on Zimba" Nahla said standing up.
OOC: Not good idea there Nahla...
-
"That... might not be the smartest move now, girl." The black stranger spoke up. Lightning illuminated his form as he looked intently at her.
-
"Why not?" Nahla asked she looked around "Someone tell me whats going on!"
-
"He... got hurt really badly... perhaps even killed." The black Longneck told her. "I could not let him kill Littlefoot, after all."
-
Nahla stared at him "Y.-y-you hurt him?!" she snarled stomping her foot with an angry roar and charged forward ramming her whole weight into the stranger,before tail whipping again and again...this had to be hurting SOME..
OOC; Please no be mad at Nahla :D,can you blame her? Her first friend she ever known is hurt most likely dead..she ain't thinking/
-
He let her vent her anger and frustration against him. Those attacks meant little to him, he had had worse before he had even reached the age of five.
"Nahla." Grandma tried to get her attention.
-
Nahla whipped around to face Grandma "WHAT?!!" she screamed panting..she knew it..bad things ALWAYS happen in storms. First her parents,now Zimba..who's next..LITTLEFOOT.
OOC: Nahla needs a reality check when it comes to Zimba :lol she needs to know he is really an evil little...ugh
-
"Look at Littlefoot." The elder female ordered her. "Closely."
-
Nahla turned to Littlefoot and frowned. His neck was littered in choke marks,a large cut covered his back and he was clenching is side in clear pain still Nahla turned again "What about him?"
-
"Who do you think did this to him?" The old female roughly whispered. "Grandpa? This stranger? You were the one who asked ME whether Zimba killed him, not vice versa."
-
Nahla screamed in frustration whipping her tail and getting Littlefoot in the side by mistake ,and not notcing the female took off.
Littlefoot yelped loudly in pain but did not say anything to complaian.
-
"Poor girl." The black male watched her go. "One of yours?"
"Only in a round-about way." Grandpa answered, nudging his wife with the silent command that she could get some rest. "She needs some alone-time, I think."
-
Littlefoot tried to stand up to follow Nahla but all it was doing was causing him more injury "I need to go after her" Littlefoot said "She's so upset..."
-
"The friend she trusted for years has never been a friend." Grandpa pushed him down gently. "Rest a bit, let your body and her heart heal a bit."
-
Littlefoot sighed but did as he was told,even though it was clear on his face he wanted to go after his what he wished was girlfriend.
OOC: Grandpa,help your grandson get his girl :lol
-
OOC: God, he is too old to be a matchmaker. Can't we send the black stranger after her? That won't at all be creepy xD
"You ARE just like your father." Grandpa chuckled.
-
OOC: We can...it'll be kinda funny in a way
"I can't help it!"Littlefoot cried "I want her so bad!"
-
"Keep that up, boy, and people might think you're the bad guy." The stranger stated. "Want me to go after her?"
Before even waiting for their answer, he started going after her.
-
Nahla walked on sobbing,she was completely heartbroken and betrayed. Her whole life had been a lie,she never really had a friend....what as fool she was to not of realized.
-
OOC: *rolls into bed*
"Hey, girl." The black stranger appeared behind her. "You alright?"
-
OOC: :wave
Startled Nahla lashed out with her tail in defense,she then turned her head to see what tried to sneak up on her and narrowed her eyes when she saw that black longneck.
-
Zimba awoke with a moan..he was startled but more then happy-he was alive...ALIVE! He laughed insanely. He looked around to see Littlefoot,Grandpa and the stranger gone but he wasn't worried about them..Nahla. If he couldn't have her...then NO ONE will. Zimba decided then and there he will kill Nahla..such a waste but...meh he knew he wasn't going to get her and he'll rather have her dead then with someone else. He stood up despire his pretty much broken neck and back and went to hunt the female down.
OOC: I declare Zimba this RPS official main antagonist..I want to be the big villain :D
-
OOC: I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW THAT WAS ZIMBA'S MOTIVATION!!
"Apologies for startling you." He stated.
-
OOC: Nahla gonna need a bodyguard by the sounds of it...oooh Littlefoot-NOWS YOUR CHANCE!
Nahla stared at him "It ok...I just thought you were some kind of meat eater coming in for the kill" she chuckled lightly.
-
A chuckle that could only be described as pure evil filled the air as Zimba found them. He headed straight to Nahla ramming her heavily "Nahla Nahla..." he began "I hate to do this..but what other choice do I have? If I can't get you then no one is..and the only way I can be sure no one does is to kill you-now goodybye" he wrapped his tail around her neck and jerked it,slamming the females head into a tree and a crack filled the air. He then dropped the neck of the motionless body and smiled.
OOC: Nahla and I agreed,Zimba 'kills' Nahla by 'breaking her neck' (he didn't really but he don't know that) and now hell is really gonna break loose. Again no panic-Nahla is alive just very hard to see breathing.
-
OOC: And yes she does come back she not gone from RP forever
-
OOC: Soooo... You do realize that blackie will now most likely stompa on Zimba? Is that okay?
-
OOC: Yeah,go ahead RAGE BLACKIE RAAAAAAAGE
-
OOC: Well, so much for Zimba being the main Villian considering he dies on the *quick check* 24th page.
This time he was not as merciful as to give a chance for survival. His roar echoed among the raindrops, even as the behemoth crashed his tail against Zimba hard enough to shatter bones.
"Oh dear..." Grandpa looked up at the roar, his wife stirring from her sleep beside him.
-
OOC: Naw don't him..just shatter his body into a thousand pieces..well they pretty much will kill him..but we do kinda need him for later...hmmmm someone might wanna come stop Blackie
Nahla lay motionless on the ground,blood pouring,the lightning lit up her 'lifeless' form.
-
Zimba landed heavily in the mud,He had not one rib that was not shattered. He spat blood out of his mouth and glared at the other longneck "What was THAT for?!!"
OOC: Dude.."What was THAT for?!!" must be Zimba's catch phrase/
-
OOC: Well, don't expect the Grandparents to SZS, they are 1. preoccupied and 2. too far away. Also, when will SOMEONE finally ask who Blackie is? Black Stranger is getting his name at this rate xD
"You know." The black Longneck answered, preparing to simply step on the younger male. That would be a death-sentence: nothing, absolutely NOTHING survives being stepped upon by a fully-grown Longneck.
-
"I didn't do anything wrong!" Zimba shouted while painfully shifting away "Tell me what I did thats soooooo wrong" he snarled.
OOC: IF Zimba makes out of this alive..he flees the valley and then we can focus on the Grandparents,Blackie/Stranger/What ever his name is and Littlefoot...poor stanger gonna have to be the one to tell Littlefoot about Nahla..poor Littlefoot is gonna grieve for ages. Nahla recovers and in fear flees the valley without anyone even knowing she is even alive. Timeskip again till their adults (and man will three elders be OLD) and bla bla bla. Zimba and Nahla make a shocking return.
-
Littlefoot jerked awake after falling asleep for a few moments he had a bad feeling,he sniffed the air and horror filled his face after smelling the scent of Nahla mixed with that of blood and death "Grandma! Grandpa! It's Nahla!" he said in panic attempting to get to his feet again and again.
-
"She is not alone." Grandpa soothed him, pushing him back to the ground. "Now stay down unless you want to worsen your wounds even more."
Meanwhile: *SPLAT*
"Coward..." The black longneck paid the remnants no heed, turning to look at the female. He blinked in shock when he realized she was still breathing.
-
Nahla let a out a painful moan..she was alive..but for how long?
Littlefoor stayed to the ground but he was worried sick.
-
Zimba had been killed instantly when the black male stepped on him. His remains now lay in a pool of blood. What was once a longneck was now a splattered bloody mess.
OOC: Guess me out now xD. You two go ahead and finish off.
-
OOC: Le whoops, everyone dies now xD
Well, that girl wouldn't stay alive long. He looked up to the rain still falling. It was fitting at least.
-
Littlefoot was getting more and more worried...it now gone completely silent where he last heard saw Nahla go. He stared in that direction.
-
OOC: Gosh, I am SO bad at telling people someone died!! D:
He left, walking back to the resting-place. "They're dead..." He muttered darkly.
-
"WHO?!!' Littlefoot screamed but he had an awful feeling..but he refused to accept it till it was confirmed...Nahla....couldn't be....no.
-
"Both." He laid down. "Zimba killed her."
-
Littlefoot screamed as he began sobbing,she was dead...this couldn't happen this CAN'T BE HAPPENING. He looked up at the black male and narrowed his eyes "No...I don't believe you" he stood up ignoring his injures and sprinted to where Nahla was.
Sadly by then,Nahla's heart had stopped beating completely..she was dead....gone....she was really gone.
-
"He'll kill himself over this..." Grandma sadly watched him go. "I can see it in his eyes."
"Sprinting with those wounds was no clue?" Grandpa softly whispered.
-
Littlefoot threw himself next to Nahla's lifeless body sobbing.. He nudged her "Nahla..wake up...wake up" he sobbed nudging her harder. This went on for a few minutes before it really hit Littlefoot-she was dead. He raised his head..he felt no reason why HE should live anymore. He stood up and wrapped his own tail around his own neck he looked in the direction his Grandparents were tears falling from his eyes "Sorry..." he whispered.
-
Mayhap they knew what was to come. They had seen the look in his eyes before.
They should have gone after him. But they didn't. For the first time in their lives, they gave up.
-
Littlefoot sighed and took a few last breaths of air. As he thought what he'll be leaving behind...his dad,his grandparents,his friends..but whats the point of staying here if all he was gonna do is suffer? On the brighter side he'll be joinng his mother and Nahla again he made his grip even more tight and uttered his last words "Grandma,Grandpa....forgive me for everything" with that he jerked back on his own neck and a horrific snap of bones filled the air,reaching all the way to where Littlefoot left his grandparents as his dead body dropped to the ground next to Nahla's.
-
They said nothing, but the black Longneck could see their eyes dim.
"A thousand apologies..." He murmured as he rose to his feet.
Come dawn, they too were dead and the stranger was gone. There where he had rested beside their bodies, the grass had died. The bodies of the children had disappeared. Sprouting where they had fallen were three flowers.
A Thistle for Zimba. A frail Orchid for Nahla. And a Dandelion for Littlefoot. The Dandelion grew big, sheltering amongst its' stems the small orchid as the Thistle grew equally big.
But where the bodies of his grandparents had decayed two trees sprouted up, growing higher than any in the Valley ever had. And beside those remained a patch of dead grass, never to be green again.
