"What are you waiting for?" Asked Littlefoot to Rex, who was with a very sorrowful expression "This is what you wanted. Attack me!"

Rex was backing away. He would never want to hurt Littlefoot, and the though of having to fight him was terrible. He just couldn't bring himself to hurt him, and knew by the look in the longneck's face that he was going to fight with all he had, and Rex would probably have no chance at all.

The other's were just watching, many of them were plenty sure that the longneck had gone completely insane. The alimons were thinking that he was overreacting and was paranoid. Yu and Sandstorm were sharing a worried look. They knew that if Rex didn't hurt Littlefoot he would never be able to win. Ducky and Ali were scared.

Ali then gave a few steps forward and talked to Littlefoot in a soft tone "Littlefoot?" The longneck turned his head to the female "Maybe you're going a little too far." She spoke "Maybe Rex is telling the truth. Maybe you should listen to him."

"SO YOU'RE ON HIS SIDE NOW?" He screamed, making her back away. Littlefoot's face was pure anger, along with the tone of his voice. "AFTER ALL HE HAD DONE TO US HE DESERVES EVERYTHING BUT OUR TRUST!". Everyone stared at the longneck. Ali then spoke again afraid "L-Littlefoot, why are you talking like this?" She asked with tears in her eyes "Why are you acting like this? This is not you."

"THIS IS THE WAR!" He screamed again "I've seen my friends and familiars die by the claws of the ones I judged my friends. I've been betrayed by them and saw sharpteeth destroy my home. I was a fool for believing that a sharpptooth could be a friend with a leaf eater. For them we are nothing more than food. They're deceitful and cruel, with the only exception of the alimons. And I shall never make the mistake of simply trusting in one again."

Everyone listened his words, Rex with sadness, and Yu and Sandstorm with a hint of anger. Then the longneck turned to Rex "And if you're not going to make the first move, so I will!" And with that he charged forward, startling Rex.

But Littlefoot gave no more than four steps before his feet sank in the ground. "What!?" He exclaimed as his four legs sank in the ground until his knees. He tried to yank them, but they were stuck in the solid rock. All the spectators were shocked.

Salen, the jade-green sickleclaw walked forward, until he was in the first line of sight of the longneck. He breathed deeply as he closed his eyes. Then he raised his hands. From the earth in front of Littlefoot raised two pillars of soil and sand, that modeled themselves in the shape of hands and stretched, circling around his long neck before the grabbed in a firm grip in his throat, almost making him choke.

Salen then made another gesture with his hand, and the earth under his feet started to move, making another soil pillar. This one raised him from the ground while he stepped in it. Then the pillar moved, moving forward with Salen on top, until the sickleclaw was in Littlefoot's eye level, staring straight at him.

"Listen here, and listen well." Salen spoke to the longneck with a calm voice, but yet firm. "You may think what you want. But you may, too, consider what is around you. Do you think that what you're saying sound at least reasonable?" Littlefoot only snarled angry at the sharptooth and told him to "Go to hell!" In this moment the grip of the earth claws in his neck intensified. But in this a voice said "Stop."

Everyone turned to the source of the voice. Even Littlefoot, tough difficultly, was able to twist his neck to look. They could see a strange, ghostly mist forming in the air, and then taking the shape of a longneck. This one was dark brown and by the voice was clearly a female. Everyone gasped. The sharpteeth thought that it was another of those strange dinos. The alimons, Yu, Sandstorm, Ducky and Ali recognized the ghost. Littlefoot's eyes widened as he recognized the figure. "Mom!"

Salen then snapped out of it and looked surprised at the longneck he was holding "Mom?". He then turned the look to the spirit that was walking forward "This guy is your son?" The longneck only looked back and said "Yes, and I'd thank if you let him go."

This was all that takes to the hands decomposed in soil, the soil pillar that raised Salen now reversed back until he was in the ground again. Then he bowed down to the spirit, along with the other members of the order. Rex looked at the longneck, he recognized that longneck, he had saw it in his prison!

Rex received a nudge in his ribs, that had come from the pink dracovol, Lara. "Bow down." She whispered at him "You have to show respect." Rex was a bit confused, but he did as was told and bend forward in a reverence.

Littlefoot just stood there, staring at the ghost of his mother. He then reached forward to nuzgle his cheek on her, only to find out that her body was fog and immaterial. But she smiled at her son's attempt. "It's good to see you too Littlefoot." She said to him, making him smile.

Then she turned to the Order of Leaf and Claw "Get up now kids." She said, and they get up straight again. Rex then gave one step forward "You..." He said "You're the longneck that talked to me." She smiled at him "Yes little one. It is good to see that you're free now."

Littlefoot took a few moments to recover from the shock and then spoke "Mother! You can't serious belive in what he says. Not a sharptooth." She sighed and spoke softly "Littlefoot."

But like he had not heard he continued "He just used our trust to betray us." He said with anger "He is just another deceitful sharptooth that cares little to nothing with anothers that are not of his kind." HIs mother then spoke again, a little louder and with a more serious tone "Littlefoot."

But Littlefoot continued "He is a traitor! If we trust him again he will probably betray us again. And this story of his is not believable, and after all he done we cannot in any circumstance-" But he was cut out when his mother's ghost turned to him with an angry look and screamed "ENOUGH LITTLEFOOT!"

Littlefoot's eyes widened as he gasped. His mother never had talked to him like that before, and she never looked at him with that anger before. His mother, ignoring him, continued in an angry tone that Littlefoot had found very unlike what he knew of her "Littlefoot, I expected you, better than anyone, to understand that others sometimes have to do things that they don't want to. And mostly, that you understood that simply fighting back for angry is one of the most stupid things that can be done."

Littleffot was speechless "M-mother...", but she continued "Not only because of simply accepting to take part in this war just because of anger, but also mistreating innocents, like your friends and even the one who got pregnant of your child." She breathed deeply and continued "Littlefoot, with all you've gone throught is comprehensive your feelings, in fact, you have the right of feeling betrayed and angry, but just because you feel like this you don't have the right of judging or of being cruel."

"B-but him..." Littlefoot tried to speak, but his mother intermissed again "You think that Chomper or Rex are bad because they have lead an army due to angry or revenge? because they did the innocent suffer or because they have oppressed the ones who didn't make the things that they wanted? Well Littlefoot, you have done most of the same things as them, so if they're really evil, so you're no different from them!"

Littlefoot gasped at this. All his army was watching, some were waiting for him to tried to charge her in anger, but those were surprised when he simply closed his eyes and lowered his head in shame. At this, his mother adopted a more serene expression and spoke to him softly "Littlefoot, look around you." The longneck did as was told and looked around, seeing all the dinosaurs that were now there as his mother spoke "All of them have family and friends, don't you think that their lives are more valuable than anger or revenge?"

Littlefoot looked sad at all of them. She was right. He lowered his head and said "Is my fault too." Rex took a few steps forward and spoke to the longneck "No Littlefoot, is not your fault" But the longneck interrupted "Yes, it is Rex. I could have prevented all the deaths that happened here. I could have saved much more, but I let my pride and my anger to take hold of me. I was about to sacrifice much more just to have my revenge on you and Chomper." He then looked to the ground and closed his eyes, a single tear running in his face "I'm becoming just like Chomper."

The dracovol then walked to the longneck and patted his snout slightly, making the longneck look back at him and find a warm smile on his face. He looked up and saw that his mother was smiling too. "You made mistakes Littlefoot." She spoke "We cannot undo the past now, but we can take care of the future by watching or actions now."

Her words made him smile, and then she continued "Is a thing that you needed to understand, and that Chomper will too."

Littlefoot and Rex turned their looks to her "Chomper?" She nodded "Yes, he will came back, and when he do, you two should trust him too." This made the one who could her confused "But, after all he done..." spoke Rex, the ghostly longneck only looked at him. "Lets just say that you're not the only that was made act by others."

She then turned her look to Littlefoot "You remember what I said?" She asked him, making him wonder what she meant, then he remembered the voice he heard after their first confrontation with Chomper "About forgiving and the family I never knew?" He asked "Why is this important, and what family?"

The ghost of his mother smiled at him "You'll see. Now, just wait for Chomper to came back." Those were her last words before vanishing in mist. Leaving them confused.

"So..." Said Rex "What do we do now?"

Balcan then spoke "We wait for Chomper, like she said." He smiled as he spoke "I'm sure we will want to hear what he will have to say when he cames back."

"Ah, I need to find my way soon." Said Speelbound. Since that sickleclaw send him that crystal he had suddenly appeared in the middle of another part of the valley, and now he was going as fast as he could back to the place. Then when he stopped to take a breath in the middle of the woods, a rustling sound was heard. Spellbound quickly turned around and snarled. "Who is there!"

A red alimon with white stripes emerged. "Chill, Spellbound! It's only me!" The alimon was a large male, slightly larger than Spellbound. He was part of Dynamo/Siria's pack. "Or did you forget who I was, Spellbound?" He asked playfully.

"Morro?" He asked softly. "Morra is that you? I haven't seen you in years! Where have you been?" He asked, smiling. He wiped off the sweat that formed on his forehead.

Morro chuckled heartfully. "I've been exploring, what else?" He walked closer to Spellbound. "Dynamo sent out someone to find me, and told me of what happened." He shuddered thinking at the devastation in the valley. "Terrible isn't it?"

"Yeah..." Spellbound said, his face downcast. "How could we let it slip so far...?"

"Because you and your miserable pack are just a bunch of idiots who couldn't do so much as cut a blade of grass without problems!" Spellbound and Morro angrily turned to see who had said that. "But then what can I expect from someone who was trained by Dynamo?" The voice said sarcastically.

"Gris!" Spellbound shouted in both surprise and disgust. "Just what are you doing here!"

Gris laughed coldly and approached the enraged alimons slowly. "Oh just paying you two a visit before the final play. That's all." He turned his head towards Morra. "Well well well...Morro! Good to see you again!" He said sarcastically. "It's been a long time. Why, no one has seen you since..."

"Since your good-for-nothing father, Rorra, was killed by Axel after he betrayed her." Morro said with a tinge of hatred.

"WATCH WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT MY FATHER!" Gris exploded with rage, his teeth bared. He was not afraid to make the killing bite.

"Just like your father." Morro said, smiling slightly. "Such a temper. I guess some dinosaurs really do take after their father."

"My father taught me well!" Gris boasted. "In fact, he taught me some spells in case his plan failed."

Spellbound chuckled. "Yeah it did fail...after Axel betrayed him and killed him with a single bite to the head." Gris seethed. "I guess he picked on the wrong alimon, eh, Morro?"

"You said it!"

"ENOUGH!" Gris lunged forward and landed close to the alimons. The action was so fast the two were taken aback, and nearly fell down. "I know what Axel did! Luckily when I became leader, we dealt with her."

Morro blinked. "But...I thought she left the pack after she killed Rorra." He looked at Spellbound. "Isn't that right? She got tired of being under Rorra's control and just left?"

Spellbound nodded. "Yes. She became a loner, and ran far away. I have no idea how far, but I always believed she would be too far way to cause trouble or for anyone from her former pack to find her."

"Oh we found a way." Gris grinned. "And I sent my best assassin to finish the job. Oh how I would have loved to see the look on my own face when the assassin returned with Axel's head!"

Spellbound and Morro slightly cringed at the thought, but they quickly let it go. "So what is it you are doing now?" Morro asked, stepping up to the larger alimon. He showed no signs of fear. "Are you killing off members of our pack now?"

"Sadly...no." Gris narrowed his eyes. "What I was doing was even better! I am was getting my revenge on this worthless valley. I have created a war that would decimate all inhabitants! No one could escape my vengeance!" The gray alimon laughed insanely, but it died down "But then those strange dinosaurs with their strange magic kept in the middle." he finished with a hint of anger. As he settled down, he added, "And to think, it all started when I disguised myself as Slasher, and tricked that moron of a dinosaur, Chomper, into thinking he had to join the army of sharpteeth and invade the valley!"

"What...?" A voice called out from behind. Gris, Morro, and Spellbound all turned to see who it was. Gris raised an eyebrow, Morro blinked, and Spellbound gasped. The figure was still hidden in the bushes, but the face was clear enough so that they could tell who it was. As the figure stepped out, there was no doubting it now. Those cracked horns, those short arms, that blue skin, the light blue underneath, the red eyes...they all could only belong to one dinosaur in this valley.

"Chomper!" Spellbound cried, breaking the silence that had started to settle among the group.

Chomper made no response. He simply walked forward, a blank look on his face, although his eyes were clearly widened. It may have been due to fright, shock, or astonishment, or perhaps even anger. "You..." He looked at Slasher. "You lied to me..."

"Surprised? Get over it!" Gris said evilly.

"You lied to me...You lied to me. YOU LIED TO ME!" Chomper roared ferociously and charged forward to attack Gris. The speed was so amazing that even Gris would have a hard time dodging this.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!" The scream carried out throughout the forest as Chomper's horn sliced into Gris's side, leaving a deep gash. As Chomper prepared to make the kill, Gris looked up at the dinosaur, and his eyes started to glow...
