Note: This is kind of a joke, but, consider how accurate the alternate reality Sharptooth would have created would be and see that even the most tragic event, so far, in Littlefoot's life DID bring out a lot of good things and kept a lot of bad things from happening. (I love Yellow Bellies, but, for those who HATE them, you're gonna really like this.)
Sharptooth was roaming around the Mysterious Beyond. He spotted a young threehorn and a young longneck. "A late night snack!" he said to himself greedily, licking his lips.
However, overhead, a glowing blue stone fell through the sky, averting his attention. He went toward it. He soon realized it was something special. It held power.....
He demanded to know what it did. He said he wanted to defeat the Great Valley, a leaf eater stronghold.
A voice from the stone told him that he must not kill the mother. He didn't know what that meant. He asked. The voice was cryptic, as ever, and stated that if he killed the mother, at least now, he would meet a watery grave. Sharptooth was taken aback. He the feared Sharptooth, drowned?! How could this be so?
He demanded a way to stop this. The voice from the stone said he must let the "one who could stop him" be destroyed. Sharptooth vowed to do this danger in himself. However, miraculously, the stone said that he wouldn't have to, someone others would but that he must be near to witness it. He would find his enemy near a Misty Land in a cave in four cold times from then. He must be there to watch his enemy's end. He agreed, gleefully.
He still, however, didn't know how he'd beat the invincible Great Valley. The stone replied that he must find a young pink one. He was told that he'd find him, along with a tall one. They would both be Sharpteeth and he would find them in five cold times near a near island that would, with the power of the stone that would be given him, have a land path revealed for him to cross then.
He still wanted to know more. He was told to find the evil flyers, that would go by the names of Rinkus and Sierra with another flyer that he would make evil and stay evil, one named Pterano. He would also find the siblings of some flyer named Petrie, that would go evil because of the thing he was about to alter. He was also told to find a belly dragger and a sharpbeak, who would help him get rid of his mysterious "great enemy". Also, he was told to find the one with the red claw, who would be another Sharptooth. After 12 cold times, he would come with his group and the Great Valley would fall before him.
Sharptooth left the stone, grinning evilly. He saw the three horn and the young longeck. He licked his lips. Food time!
He ran toward them. They panicked and ran. "Mama help!" Littlefoot yelled. Sharptooth chased them into thorn, at one point injuring his eye. They came out of the vines, and he came out behind them, determined to pay them back.
Then, he saw her. The big mother. That was what she must be. Sharptooth realized this was the life that he must not, at least not for many cold times, take. If he did, he was told his life would end soon.
He dodged her, not daring to so much as scratch her. He went for Cera. However, then....it happened. The ground rumbled. He turned and ran. The others did too. Cera, however, was separated from Littlefoot and his mother. Littlefoot and Cera would never , at least in life, meet again!
Sharptooth came to the stone of cold fire. The earth was moving. He got it to heal his eye. Knowing he had to scamper fast, he asked it for another power. It gave him the ability to speak leaf eater. The stone then fell into the Dark Underground and was ruined. However, he still had his chance and now had a new power.
He used it gleefully, using it to lure leaf eaters to their doom. Meanwhile, Littlefoot and his mother would continue on toward the Great Valley.
Meanwhile, Cera met a young swimmer named Ducky. She met a young flyer named Petrie later. Sometime later, she met a spike tail, who just hatched, named Spike. They wandered on, trusting Cera.
They came to the Mountains that Burn. Petrie fell off Cera's back when she panicked. Petrie fell into tar, where he met his end.
Spike and Ducky, meanwhile, fell into lava, also meeting their ends. Cera kept going, until she was cornered by Domehead. She let out a final scream as she was attacked. Cera was no more!
Meanwhile, a flyer named Pterano led a herd that had agreed to follow him. The herd was ambushed by Albino Sharpteeth and Pterano was the only survivor. The other dinosaurs were furious that Pterano wouldn't admit he was wrong and they banished him for life from the Great Valley. Pterano, who no longer had a nephew, would never ever bother to return to the Great Valley. Instead, he would associate with Rinkus and Sierra, two evil flyers, in time becoming as bad as they.
Littlefoot and his mother reached the Great Valley. They reunited with Grandma and Grandpa Longneck. However, there was no happy reunion with Topps, Mama and Papa Swimmer, and Mama Flyer and their kids.
Weeks would go by. Tragedy would strike again. Two egg stealers, by the names of Ozzy and Strut, would be having an egg-stravaganza, stealing eggs from many nests, and always getting away with it. Mama and Papa Swimmer's nest was one of those hit.
Meanwhile, in the Mysterious Beyond, the following day, an egg of a Sharptooth would hatch. His name would have been Chomper, but, as he never met Littlefoot, it instead became "Hard Biter".
He would become a regular Sharptooth.
A cold time later or so, a drought would strike the Great Valley. Littlefoot was annoyed that Hyp, Nodd, and Mutt kept bothering him. Eventually, he found water and went to tell the grownups. However, a fire broke out before they could do much. They left the Great Valley.
Hyp, Nodd, and Mutt greedily went looking for water. They found water, but also tar. Littlefoot, Nodd, and Mutt tried to get Hyp from the tar, but, with just the three of them, they couldn't and Hyp lost his life.
They didn't have time to mourn Hyp's loss long though. Soon, Fast Biters came. Littlefoot, Nod, and Mutt decided to try and push rocks at the Fast Biters. They watched as Hyp's father lost his life below while they struggled to move the rocks. At last, they got one to to move, but not before some Fast Biters grabbed Nodd and Mutt, taking them with them as they went down. Littlefoot could only watch helplessly as they were mauled to death. Water came, pushing the bad guys away. The Great Valley eventually grew back, but the Time of Great Giving had a somber mood.
At last, the fourth cold time arrived. Littlefoot met his third cousin Ali. Mama Longneck was worried. Her father had fallen gravely ill. The Old One said he would die unless he got a Night Flower.
Littlefoot and Ali snuck off to the Land of Mists. Meanwhile, Sharptooth, having heard of the Land of Mists, had a very important date, and stood outside the cave. He eventually went into it, hiding in a chamber. It was imperative that he not kill this "greatest danger" himself.
Eventually, an earthshake occurred as Littlefoot and Ali were in the cave, causing a rockslide. Sometime later, Sharptooth watched as Dil and Ichy ate Littlefoot and Archie. Now Sharptooth got it. Eventually, Ali broke through and was attacked by Dil and Ichy. However, though she was injured, she was still alive when Sharptooth came in and told them to back of. She was going to thank him, but he turned to Dil and Ichy, told them to meet him near the Great Valley at the appointed time of his victory. He then ate Ali.
Mama Longneck watched as her father died of his disease. She also knew, from Littlefoot and Ali's lack of returning, that they had met a bad end in the Land of Mists. She had lost three relatives that day. She wished, almost, and not for the last time, that she had died years ago, killed by that Sharptooth in the Mysterious Beyond.
Unfortunately, things would only get worse.
