"That sounds like a decent plan. I much prefer talking to nicer people."
Dante said, eyes brightening cheerfully...

Far from the valley walls, another raptor, Virgil, stood among a small herd of others, glaring at the walls menacingly...

Hunter sighed and said "Threehorns...stubborn, bossy and just unpleasant...count me out."

Longtail frowned but said "Okay Hunter your choice, but when you miss out on meeting a new friend, don't come crying to me!"

Hunter just scoffed and said "Not likely."

Mim nods, "I understand, but maybe you won't mind meeting Cera at least, and not her father, up to you though." She said from where she was sitting and resting.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #123 on:** June 19, 2008, 11:12:12 PM

Hunter raised an eye as she said "I guess I could try..."

Longtail smiled and said "Now thats the spirit!"

"Well let's go then." Littlefoot said to the others and started out across the wet meadow.

Snork and Strafe followed him for a bit and eventually, they neared a small clumg of pine trees where Cera lived. Topsy did not seem to be home at the moment but Littlefoot didn't see Cera either.

"It looks like they're not home right now. Maybe we can come back later. I guess I can show you around for a bit." Littlefoot announced.

"Sure." Snork said as Littlefoot let them onwards.

First, Littlefoot showed everyone the main water hole and then the falls.

Snork said to Strafe, "I think we're going to like it just fine here."

"Yeah" the iguanodon replied as she followed Littlefoot toward the stone arch that marked the main meeting area for the Great Valley residents.

Littlefoot explained, "This is where everybody meets if there is an emergency. Other than that, there is rarely anyone here. You can see the smoking mountain over there and Two Boulder Pass up ahead. It is mainly just a landmark we use to figure out where we are in the valley."

"Thanks." Strafe nodded. By now, it was late afternoon and Littlefoot decided to check and see if Cera was home now.

As they approached the clump of trees again, Littlefoot could see Topsy asleep and Cera heading toward the river.

"Come on, guys." he urged. "Let me introduce you to my friend."

(OCC: Who is playing Cera and Mr. Threehorn again? I forgot.)

Mim walked along with the others, knowing most of the spots, but not all of them, and knowing only 1 way to a few, and learned a new way to some of those. "Nice." She said a time or two during the tour, always enjoying certain sights of the Great Valley.

(ooc: I don't think anyone is playing either of them. )

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #126 on:** June 20, 2008, 07:08:17 PM

Hunter had to admit the walk around the valley was far more interesting than she expected. She was impressed by how big this valley was. She then turned to Mim and asked "If Cera's father were to find out about us sharpteeth being here...how would he act, not that I don't already know."

Longtail laughed and said "I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you stay away from him...you should be fine."

Kor · **Reply #127 on:** June 20, 2008, 11:11:03 PM

Mim thought for a moment, "Not very pleasantly. He'd likely want you to go." She paused before going on, "Though if you can get some to speak on your behalf that may go better, especially if you or someone wanted a meeting. Maybe show some respected grown ups here like Grandpa and Grandma Longneck and Mr. Thicknose you are willing and can eat green food or other sorts like crawlers or something like that, things may go easier." She looked at those present, including Littlefoot, "Do any of you have ideas? The meeting with Cera instead of her dad is a good one." She looked over at Littlefoot who had suggested it.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #128 on:** June 21, 2008, 01:28:36 AM

Longtail smiled and said "I'm sure you are right Mim, we just need to give the others time to understand us and we shouldn't have a problem. I would like to meet Cera though."

Hunter smiled too and said "Yeah...what are we waiting for?"

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #129 on:** June 21, 2008, 12:33:09 PM

"Well then, what're we waiting around for? Let's go meet Cera!"
Dante said, chewing on a twig...

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #130 on:** June 21, 2008, 12:47:28 PM

Hunter smiled and pulled on Dante's tail and said "Wait, perhaps we should wait here...after all...with Cera's dad sleeping so close..if he saw us...he charge first and ask questions never. Until Cera is a safe distance from her father I say we wait."

Longtail snorted and said "What's wrong Hunter...ya scared?"

Hunter shook her head and replied "No...I just don't want to end up hurting the old fool for doing something stupid."

Longtail then flapped his wings and followed Littlefoot as he lead them to Cera at the river, calling over his wings "Yeah right."

F-14 Ace · **Reply #131 on:** June 21, 2008, 01:00:39 PM

Littlefoot suggested, "I'll see if I can bring her over here. Wait here."
The longneck ran over to where Cera was and said, "Hey Cera, there is someone I want you to meet. They're over there."
Littlefoot gestured with his head toward where the others were.

Kor · **Reply #132 on:** June 21, 2008, 08:46:09 PM

Cera looked over to where Littlefoot's voice came from and started walking over to where Littlefoot was.

"Who is it?" Cera asked as she grew closer. She paused as she saw the group and looked back at Littlefoot walking a bit closer to him.

"You do know some of them are sharpteeth." She whispered to Littlefoot. To the others she nodded, "Hello, are you visiting or staying?" She asked.

"They are new here and want to stay." Mim said. She stayed in the back resting as they others talked.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #133 on:** June 21, 2008, 10:45:22 PM

Longtail nodded and said "It's okay. These two here..." He pointed to Dante and Hunter and said "They aren't strong enough to hurt you...after all you are a threehorn right?" Then he added "Nice to meet you!"

Topsy had begun to stir in his sleep. He was having a sleep story about sharpteeth invading the valley and chasing his daughter. He woke up with a start and looked around for Cera, and after a few moments called her name... "Cera?! Where are YOU?"

Kor · **Reply #134 on:** June 22, 2008, 10:20:11 AM

Cera got a bit of an annoyed expression on her face, and made a low sound as well, not sure about the fast biters, but having to admit to herself that Littlefoot was often right about trusting people in the past.

When she heard her dad she looked at the 2 sharpteeth talking in a low whisper so her dad would not hear and speaking quickly, "Nice to meet you too. The 2 of you better hide and not let my dad see you." she said, then turning towards where her dad was she spoke up louder so he could hear.

"I'm just over here Daddy, talking to Littlefoot. He met some new arrivals who he wanted me to meet."

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #135 on:** June 22, 2008, 12:54:24 PM

"Right. Good idea, Cera."
Dante whispered as he jumped up into a tree hearby...

General Grievous · **Reply #136 on:** June 22, 2008, 10:43:09 PM

Kaga watched from the woods as Cera spoke to her father. He was hoping there would be no confrontation. He really was not in the mood for that at the moment.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #137 on:** June 23, 2008, 01:26:21 AM

Hunter didn't need to be told twice and jumped into a bush on the other side of a nearby hill. Knowing that being seen by a threehorn could be big trouble. She stayed low and hoped for the best.

Longtail stood next to Littlefoot looking intimidated by Topsy. He was shaking...he'd never seen a fully grown Threehorn before, and he looked grumpy...that was always a bad thing, but with a threehorn...it could be life threatening.

Longtail then settled for just waving his tail at Topsy hoping to give a warm hello.

Topsy however was happy to know his daughter was safe, but she was with newcomers, and they were always strange. But none of them looked dangerous...at least not yet. He decided he'd see these newcomers face to face.

He walked up the hill in the light and could now see a flyer, a spikethumb, and another swimmer, but the flyer seemed...different, then he noticed it...it was his tail...it was long. too long to be a child's tail so he nodded his head to the new comers and promptly said "Alright, as long as they are safe, I suppose no harm done...yet. If you wish you may go play Cera."

Kor · **Reply #138 on:** June 23, 2008, 09:24:30 AM

Cera smiled while looking at her dad, "Thanks Daddy." She then turned to Littlefoot, "So what do you want to do?" She asked him, curious what sort of idea he would have.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #139 on:** June 23, 2008, 01:43:46 PM

Topsy nodded as he walked away and said to himself 'I'm going to have to keep an eye on these newcomers, they may be hiding something. And I plan on finding out what!'

Longtail smiled and said "I don't care what we play...as long as I get to have some fun!"
