Twilight Valley 2 (http://fanfiction.wikia.com/wiki/Twilight_Valley_2) by Scratte Lover2.
I do not know whether to be irritated or not.
I am glad that TWV has fans but I have some...issues with the writing style.
-
If you don't want it online, perhaps you should contact this Scratte Lover2. I had this issue about a year ago (though it was plagiarism rather than an unauthorized continuation), and I can tell you it's better to confront these things sooner rather than later.
-
Have you tried to contact her? Maybe you two can work together.
-
I cannot find her anywhere except on the Fanfiction Wikia.
I will have a word with her tomorrow.
-
:goodluck. Are you thinking about making a sequel yourself?
-
Not likely.
-
Simply say that Claw no longer has any use for her and she is scheduled for termination (lol Future Wars reference).
Yeah though this is evil... stealing someone's story by making a sequel without their permission. If somebody did the same to me I would be on them so fast...
-
Try your best to contact her on the fanfiction wikipedia. :goodluck
-
Wow, I don't really know how to feel about this.
This seems like this person really likes your story and wants to write her own version of it as a sequel. It's unfortunate that you can't find him or her except for on that Wiki.
Whatever the case, if and once the story is uploaded onto Fanfiction.net, you need to take action immediately.

Story thief <_<! Inform this inividual that:
1. Yes. I, Jakayrta, am the writer of TWV.
2. No, I do not wish to write a sequel to TWV at this time.
and
3. No, you're not authorized to rip off my fanfic.
Have a nice day.

It's not that bad. I've definitely read worse, and they appear to be well-versed in the Twilight Valley universe.
Whether you choose to make them seize and desist or not, it should be an honor that you wrote something good enough that a fan was motivated to write a sequel. You seem to have a knack for that :)

I really hate to be the sour note here but you are wrong.
I can list some errors they made:
1.) The Gang of Five is in their early 20s in TWV. This sequel is 6 years later, which would make them in their late 20s. It seems like they got the ages wrong.
2.) Several of my OCs and the canon characters are OOC.
3.) TWV dinosaurs have no concept of time in hours.
4.) Only smaller dinosaurs (Swimmers, Runners, Sickleclaws, Fast-Runners, etc.) use edged weapons. Large sharpteeth (Blue-Scale, Chomper's parents etc.) will either fight with unarmed or use weapons like boulders or saplings.
5.) They lost the name of Chomper's parents.
6.) Several of the profanities used by the dinosaurs are not used by the TWV dinosaurs as they would not understand them.
7.) Sickleclaw pods are NOT weapons.
----------------------
In any case, I left this message for ScrattLover2 on the Land Before Time Wiki:
Dear ScrattLover,
I have noticed that you have placed an unauthorized sequel to Land Before Time: Twilight Valley on Fan Fiction Wiki as evidenced by this page: [Twilight Valley 2]. I am the author of the Land Before Time: Twilight Valley and I request that remove that page as you had plagerized my idea as well as my original characters.
Thank you,
Jakayrta
-
The page is still there but all the information that used to be on it is gone. Scratte Lover2 has removed the content themselves.
-
Yeah, maybe the person realized what they did was wrong and got rid of all the information. It seems like it's been taken care of, but keep an eye out anyway. You don't know if ScrattLover is merely hiding their story from you.
-

I will have a word with her tomorrow.
I am sorry for creating the sequel, and I am not a girl. I won't create any other sequels with the permission of the author.

Dose that mean if you to make a second twilight valley you'd probaly use the part I wrote? I still have it saved, but I'm working on a fanfiction series on Ice Age Wiki (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Category%3AScratteLover2_fanfictions). Plus I've decided not to continue writing it. So if you want to make a sequel you can you what I wrote as the beginning if you want to. The fanfictions I'm working on are:
Ice Age 4 (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Fan:Ice_Age_4)
Ice Age 5 (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Fan:Ice_Age_5)
Ice Age 6 (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Fan:Ice_Age_6)
Ice Age 7 (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Fan:Ice_Age_7)
Ice Age: A New Beginning (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Fan:Ice_Age:_A_New_Beginning)
Ice Age: Happy Halloween (http://iceage.wikia.com/wiki/Fan:Ice_Age:_Happy_Halloween)
I put these here for anyone that likes Ice Age fanon.

twilight Valley will probably NOT have a sequel. What I mean was that you can review, critique and offer suggestions on the chapters I am writing for Twilight Valley.

Two things:
1) I have more accounts than just fanfiction wiki: I'm at ice age wiki, lbt wiki, fanfiction wiki, rio wiki, the ice age wiki, ice age fanon wiki, ice age franchise wiki, happy feet wiki, carnosaur wiki, jurassic park wiki, jeepers creepers wiki, tremors wiki and the final destination wiki
2) I never had an account for fanfiction.net, and if I did post fanfictions there, they'd be ice age fanfictions, plus my validated account wasn't working right.
Also, Serris, if you were wondering why I wrote an unofficial sequel, it because I was new at righting fanfictions, so I started with something I knew very well. But that won't happen again, I sticking with writing my own fanfictions, rarely LBT. Only LBT fanfiction I'm working on is my temperarily cancelled fanfic The Land Before Time/Ice Age crossover and help right with fanfictions that are going slow by request, so if anyone wants to have me help with writing fanfictions, contact me. I have nothing to due, and I've ran short on ideas with Ice Age fanfictions. I just finished three! Two yesterday, and one today, but I have tons of ideads for war-fics I've read, heads up.

On a sidenote, I gave permission to ScratteLover2 (ScratteLover3) to write a Twilight Valley spinoff titled Twilight Valley: Blood Ruby.
It is on fanfiction.net.
