Land Before Time: Twilight Valley

Deimos immediately released Dante. "Ok, Longtail so now what?"

Cera groaned. "I wanted to see this finished."

Nod chuckled. "I hope you have a lot of patience then."

"I do!"

"Sure."

"Cut it out, you two." Ruby said.

Longtail had a sudden idea! "Okay I know how to finish this! Both you and Dante will take several steps away from each other and when I give the signal you two will charge and the first last one standing is the winner...how's that sound to you two?" he asked Deimos and Dante

"I like that idea,' fastclaw said.

Serris · **Reply #103 on:** November 30, 2008, 11:38:36 PM

"Aww. I wanted to fight it out with Dante, not run into each other." Deimos complained.

Ruby sighed. "Deimos, be realistic no one's going to sit here and watch you and Dante fight when no one is winning."

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

Over in the far reaches of the Mysterious Beyond, in a valley like the Great Valley only filled with sharpteeth, a tall black Sharptooth was talking with a Spike-Frill.

"Styracus, have your forces prepared for the invasion yet?" the sharptooth asked.

"Yes, Excidium, my forces are currently preparing their weapons." Styracus replied.

"Excellent. I'll prepare the squadron. And I'd recommend you take a few members of my Hunter Battalion, they are the most well trained of my sharpteeth. "

"Will do."

Styracus then headed back to a flat plain where his squad of plant eaters were preparing their weapons.

One of the plant eaters, a dark green Runner was using a sharp rock to whittle a spear from a long tree branch.

Another plant eater, a dark blue Swimmer, was hammering out a stone spearhead from a glassy black rock. A completed stone tipped spear lay by his feet.

(OOC - I hope no one minds that I didn't bother to explain why Styracus and his squad are inside a valley full of Sharpteeth.)

(OOC- Spike-Frill is a Styracosaurus)

Dante nodded.
"I guess Longtail's right. We weren't going anywhere fast with the last thing, so let's try something new."
He said, grinning slightly...

Next to the black sharptooth, a purple raptor dropped out of the nearby trees.
"Sir...Allow me, and the Ressentiment herd to go with Styracus. It would be an honor to accompany them, to...keep an eye on them, if you will..."
Kireek said, his voice quiet, rasping, and evil...

Serris · **Reply #105 on:** December 01, 2008, 01:26:38 AM

"Any new form of sparring is fine by me." Deimos replied.

-----------

"Kireek, take the most well trained members of Ressentiment herd and order them to accompany Styracus." Excidium said, looking at Styracus's herd preparing for battle. "And another thing, under no circumstances are you to attack them, unless they attack you and even then, you may only use the force required to defend yourself."

"Um, sir? Exactly how well trained is Styracus's herd." a green raptor asked.

"I'd say that they are more than a match for the average sharptooth or plant eater and they'd would give our basic sharpteeth quite a challenge but they are still no match for the elite Hunter Battalion or Ressentment Herd."

(OOC - I hope I didn't make Styracus's herd too powerful)
(OOC - Starfall, how should we do the Deimos/Dante "joust"? Should we ignore real life weight differences <Utahraptors weighed about 1,000 pounds or more and Troodons peaked at 150 pounds or so.>?)

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #106 on:** December 03, 2008, 08:24:56 PM

Longtail sighed.
"As long as you two don't end up trying to overpower the other on the dirt I'll be fine with whatever you two choose." he replied with a irritated tone. Suddenly Longtail shuddered as he looked around as if trying to find something that he couldn't see.

A yellow belly dragger happened to be sitting nearby Excidium and Kireek while they spoke, but taking no interest in the conversation she simply sighed and set her head down on the rock under her.

Serris · **Reply #107 on:** December 06, 2008, 12:43:39 AM

Deimos looked at Dante. "Ok then, ready when you are."

Chomper looked at the two. "This should be good."

"Not as interesting as was watching them pound on each other but hey who's complaining." Hyp said.

"You." Cera countered.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #108 on:** December 06, 2008, 05:43:10 PM

Dante smiled.
"I'm always ready, Deimos! Let's get it on!"
He said, tailtip twitching...

Serris · **Reply #109 on:** December 06, 2008, 06:09:55 PM

Deimos nodded. "Let's go!" He then backed up a distance and charged at full speed towards Dante.

"Wow! I didn't Deimos was that fast." Cera said.

"You'd be suprised." Littlefoot said.

The young sharptooth sighed as she pulled herself the rest of the way up the hill and examined the valley before her. Lori frowned as she saw the flattooth herds wandering across the valley floor.

So she hadn't managed to find the valley her parents had talked about. Instead she came across this flattooth paradise.

Lori sighed aloud and started down the hill. She hadn't eaten in a while and she was growing thinner than usual. Perhaps she could find some small prey without attracting any attention from the leafeaters.

(OOC - Drake, please make a character profile, the instructions are in the first post <fighting style choice is optional>. You can place it here or in the associated RP discussion thread)

"I'm betting this is going to end in a stalemate again." Mutt said.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #112 on:** December 06, 2008, 09:07:33 PM

Dante smirked, kicking forwards with a burst of speed at Deimos.
"Ready or not, here I come!"
He said, the dust kicking up around his feet...

Serris · **Reply #113 on:** December 07, 2008, 12:59:28 AM

Deimos maintained his charge and angled his shoulder so it would be the first part of him to strike Dante.

"I'm going to bet that this is the one time Deimos feels pain." Chomper said.

"Yes this should be done quickly,' fastclaw said

Drake · **Reply #115 on:** December 10, 2008, 12:51:29 AM

Lori had gobbled up several slow moving beetles and was feeling quite full. She decided she would find a place to rest before doing anything else.

As she walked through the trees, voices reached her ears. Curiosity overrode her sense of caution and she turned in the direction of the voices.

She peered over top of a fern bush and saw a group of young flatteeth and sharpteeth. She was stunned to see such a group. Her attention turned to the two charging sharpteeth.

Serris · **Reply #116 on:** December 10, 2008, 12:56:56 AM

The rustling bushes caught Ruby's attention. She turned towards them and noticed someone. "Guys, there's someone in the bushes."

Cera was too busy watching the impending impact to notice Ruby's statement.

f-22 "raptor" ace · **Reply #117 on:** December 10, 2008, 01:04:57 AM

"Yeah I hear it too ruby,' fastclaw said.

Drake · **Reply #118 on:** December 10, 2008, 01:07:34 AM

"Uh-oh," Lori whispered and slowly backed away, the bushes rustling slightly as she did.

Chomper looked up as well and sniffed the air. "I smell a sharptooth."

The Great Valley Guardian · **Reply #119 on:** December 10, 2008, 01:22:57 PM

((OOC: I'll take control of Dante here too.))

Longtail still too engrossed in the fight tried to quiet everyone down so he could watch without interruptions. "Can you guys keep it down?!"

Dante saw the charge coming and reached his claw to catch Deimos' shoulder. As his hand collided with Deimos Dante jumped up and over his adversary and landed low to the ground and he turned to try and bite Deimos's tail.
