"I try to not let anything get me down. Holdover from my teacher, I guess...'Can't follow the trails if you can't see where you're to go,' he said...or something like that," Spiral replied. "Can't quite remember exactly, but something along those lines."

Both Spiral and Kariya noticed the tone and look of Ruby. "...Is something wrong?" Kariya asked.

"...Guys! Please!" Blueberry said loadly. Then lowered his tone again.
"... Watering hole... Now..."
He held up his hand on the left side of his head.
"It's just headache... Don't worry about it..." he said to avoid questions, he couldn't take any at the time.

Zaine knew they needed some water and fast. He looked around until he found a small pond. "Over there! Come on Blueberry. I'll help you over. Cera, you help Littlefoot." With that, Zaine propped Blueberry on his back and carried him over to the pond. He gently layed Blueberry on the ground, found a large leaf, and scooped some water onto it. He placed the leaf next to Blueberry. "Here's some to start you off. You look like you've been through hell and back, so drink as much as you need."

Cera frowned when she heard Blueberry raise his voice and she sighed and said at a whisper "Okay...okay...come on." She then heard Zaine suggestion and said "Sure..I'll help littlefoot." She then walked past Blueberry and used her tail as a brace for Littlefoot. She then looked into his eyes for a moment and noticed they were unfocused...Cera immediately thought 'what happened to them?'

Nimrod · **Reply #484 on:** September 09, 2008, 03:34:42 PM

I,... I am. I guess I am. At least, I hope so. Ruby answered. Just thinking about what Cyrix said to me. That making friends now could hurt much in the end. She looked again to the ground and sighed.

Ateo turned to Ecco and nodded his head. "Sure." He then looked at the two small dinosaurs and offered a small smile when Ecco introduced him. "Hi." He dropped down on all fours and lowered himself as close to the ground as possible. "If you want a ride, hop on."

Diver dove deep into the water. She did see fish swimming around and some underwater green food as well. She started to gather some to take up so she and Mia could share and eat.

"You hungry or thirsty or just want to rest?" Blue-eyes asked as he looked at Scarface and started to head to the water.

Mia went to the water to get a drink and to look to see if she could see where Diver and gone to.

Motochika stood beside Ruby, placing his arm around her again.
"Friendship...is not what will cause the pain. It is, rather, the decision to avoid friendships that will inflict such suffering upon you. Trust me. I have lived alone for many years, and that is far more painful than the loss of a friend. Friends are...I think friends are the one thing we cannot live without. No matter what Cyrix may say...I see you as my friend, Ruby..."
He trailed off, uncertain, then concluded...
"You can let people in. You can have friends..."

Nimrod · **Reply #488 on:** September 10, 2008, 01:34:32 PM

Ruby looked at Motochika and shed a tear. Thanks. Thank you for this kind words. I¥ll never forget that, she said and bowed to show her thankfulness.

OCC: Because of the scene with Ateo. Now Blueberry and Littlefoot are already carried to the water whole. But Ateo first now offered his help. What now?

DarkHououmon · **Reply #489 on:** September 10, 2008, 02:01:54 PM

OOC: They were? Whoops, sorry. I'll fix it later. Just disregard that post.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #490 on:** September 10, 2008, 10:57:51 PM

Motochika shook his haed.
"There is no need for thanking me. I simply...I dislike seeing you in pain, or upset. It is enough that I can be of help to you."
He replied, smiling at her...

Diver came up to where Mia was holding some underwater green food in her hands. She went to the surface and gave some to Mia. "Not much, but enough for a snack." Diver said, knowing that being much larger Mia ate much more.

Mia accepted some of the food she was offered. "Just a snack and some rest & water then we can head on to the Great Valley." She said and floated beside Diver as they both started eating their green food.

Blue-Eyes went into the water slowly and swam as slow and quietly as he could. He went to a spot that looked like it had plenty of fish and with care and diligence managed to catch one.

Nimrod · **Reply #492 on:** September 11, 2008, 07:36:26 AM

Yes. I guess no one wants to see any of us in a bad mood. I think I am just worrying to much, Ruby said and gave a little smile

Scarface did it like Blue-eye. But because it was the first time that he actually wanted to try fish, it wasn¥t that easy for him. He missed around 5 fishes before he finally got one.

Kor · **Reply #493 on:** September 11, 2008, 10:09:09 AM

"Very good, you did better then my first attempts." Blue-eyes said. He smiled a bit at his memory of himself trying to catch fish, "It took the longest time before I caught my first time and longer before I really learned how. Looks like you are better then I was at first." He said.

Blueberry stumbled own on the ground and began drinking.
He feelt the cool clearing his mind. Slowly but surely his energy started to return.

Littlefoot did the same, then he just layed down on the ground.
"Thank you guys, but I'm sorry... I have to rest for a while..." he said.

-----------------

Blueberry slowly got up on his legs. Now he could stand properly.
"Thank you guys, I feel a bit better now."
Still having a headache, but the water had made him feel more fresh.
He looked over his shoulders. His feathers on his back didn't look nice.
They were all dirty and worn out.
"... My feathers is a mess..." he murmured silently.
Not only was the feathers a mess, but his body was all dirty and he had several brushes all over.
He sighed and looked around.
Then he saw Ecco.
"You!" he pointed at Ecco as he began to walk towards him.

Nimrod · **Reply #495 on:** September 11, 2008, 12:46:40 PM

Me? Ecco was confused, because he didn¥t know what Blueberry was up to at first. But then he noticed. Oh, you mean, ... oh, don¥t get that wrong please. I didn¥t want to get anyone of you in danger. I... I just felt so empty after we lost Longtail, that I had to run away. I had to clear my mind and everything. On my way back to the valley, I found Ateo. Well, and now I am here with you guys. I am very sorry for that what happened to you, and I thank you all that you came to search for me. He knelt down on one knee and bowed. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know.

Lillefot · **Reply #496 on:** September 11, 2008, 01:08:45 PM

Littlefoot tought of saying something, for a moment it looked like as if Blueberry were about to strangle Ecco.
But Blueberry didn't do anything.
Instead, he lost his angry face, sighed and turned around.
He started to walk away from the group.

"B... Blueberry wait! Where are you going!?" Littlefoot called after him.

Blueberry answered shortly. "To the meeting grounds!"

I have to tell the grown ups... And Cyrix needs to know...
He kept walking, then smiled a little for himself.
Ecco... you stupid... I'm glad that you're safe...

----------------

"We should leave him for a while..." Littlefoot nodded.
"Oh, you don't know how glad I am to see you all!" he added.
"Is all of you okay?"
"Ecco... I'm so glad that you're safe! Just... let Blueberry take his time, okay?" he said and looked with concern at Ecco.

Nimrod · **Reply #497 on:** September 11, 2008, 01:27:25 PM

Ecco shed a tear and agreed. I hope he isn¥t too upset. Ah, man. I am such a fool. Ecco looked to the ground and sat down.

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #498 on:** September 11, 2008, 02:40:26 PM

Cera frowned and said "Are you sure Littlefoot...I mean what if he gets lost again...and what if he gets hurt? Someone should go with him."
Cera then turned and called out "Please Blueberry just wait for a moment!"

~~~~~

Grandpa Longneck sighed as the meeting wasn't making any true head way, and it had just turned into another shouting match between the elders of the valley. He waited for the right moment to speak his mind, but hoping something would quiet them down.

~~~~~

Cyrix was currently standing next to the Tree of Life in the center of the valley. He was still sheding tears, but his face held the look of determination. He sighed and turned away clenching his fist with anger and a new determination to find and rescue his nephew from whatever it was that held him.

'We WILL find you Longtail...just hold on!' was Cyrix final thought as he walked away from the tree and towards the meeting place, hoping to talk to some of the other valley elders about what they intended to do.

LBTFan13 · **Reply #499 on:** September 11, 2008, 03:26:34 PM

Zaine didn't realize that Blueberry was mad at Ecco for running away, bu he could understand his anger about Longtail. I'm worried about him. I don't want him to get lost again. Maybe I should go with him. He looked towards Cera. "I'm going to the meeting circle with Blueberry. Stay here with Littlefoot ok?" With that, he turned around and ran after Blueberry. He caught up to him and said, "Thought you could use some company. I'm really glad you're safe." Then he thought to himself. Why am I going back to the meeting circle after what Kor said? Maybe I feel like they deserve another chance.
