The Land Before Time X

The Great Longneck Migration

Millions of years ago this planet

we call Earth

was a quite different place indeed.

The land was still forming.

Strange plants abounded.

And the world was populated

by those most remarkeable of creastures:

the dinosaurs.

They're very different from us in many ways.

Theese ancient giants

resembled us in some ways too.

They ate

they fought

they played

they slept

and sometimes perhaps

they even dreamed.

Hoh! It was just a sleepstory.

I'm going to get you.

Yep, yep, yep.

No, you are not.

Can't catch me.

I can do. Yep, yep, yep.

Or may be not.

Me know you no catch me neither.

Then I will catch Spike.

Don't even think about it!

Ducky!

I'm going to get you!

Can't catch me!

I'm right behind you.

I'm too fast for you.

Tag.

You are it.

Yep, yep, yep.

Did you no hear:
you it!

Huh?

What part of it don't you understand?

I'm sorry, I just...

It's the Great Circle,

you see it every day.

Why is it suddenly so interesting?

I don't know. I...

It looks like something

I saw in my sleepstory last night.

Sleepstory?

Yep, yep, yep.

I have sleepstorys all of the time.

I love them.

I see myself pouring down white waters

covered with good smelling flowers.

Me have sleepy storys about

flying way up above high hills and tall trees.

Me bet me know

what Spike has sleepstorys about.

What about you, Sara?

Don't you ever have sleepstorys?

Threehorns never have sleepstorys.

They are for babys.

They are all just full of dumb stuff

that could never happen.

I guess you are right.

In my sleepstory last night

I saw you bet your head

against this tall rock

and it split right in half.

Really? I did that?

Yeah, but like you said:

sleepstorys are dumb,

something like that

could never really happen.

Oh no, wait! I did not say

everything that happens

in a sleepstory is dumb.

Sure you did.

I did not!

I said some things.

But this head budging thing,

I could do that.

Sure you could.

Yeah, right.

I could do.

There is not a rock in the whole Great Valley

that I couldn't crack with my head.

Oh yeah?

Let's see. How about that one?

Yeah that one.

Well.

Sure. I can do that, no problem.

Great.

Oh, OK.

I'm going home, my head hurts.

I didn't mean to make her hurt her head.

Me think you mainly hurt her bragbone.

What is it, Littlefoot?

What's the matter?

I don't know.

I just can't sleep for some reason.

Oh, neither can I, Littlefoot,

and I think I know why.

For some time now

I have been feeling restless,

as if there is some place

I need to go,

but I... I don't know where.

Me too Grandpa, me too.

That is how I feel tonight.

I think this feeling has something

to do with the sleepstorys

I've been having.

Huh. You've been having 'm too?

Grandma too.

We have talked about it.

I think the time has come for us

to go on a journey.

A journey?

When? Where? Just you and me?

And Grandma.

And others too I think.

I realy don't know,

but we must leave soon.

Lie back down now.

Get some rest,

we might leave tomorrow.

A journey.

What kind of journey?

You mean like a trip?

Yeah, I guess so,

sort of like an adventure.

So let me get this straight.

You've been having sleepstorys

so you're going on an adventure

but you don't know when

and you don't know where,

and you don't know why.

but you just sort of feel when it's time

to leave and you and your grandparents

will so sort of wander off.

Is that it?

Yeah. That about sums it up.

Huh. I'm glad threehorns

don't have adventures like that.

Well, me think it sound fun.

What kind of adventure

do you think it will be?

I... I just don't know.

A trip down the deepest caves?

A climb into the highest mountains?

A swim across the biggest water?

Littlefoot, it's time.

Oh, me miss him already.

I still wonder

where is he going to go.

Arg, who wanna go on an adventure

with a bounch of longnecks anyway.

Me want.

Grandma, are we there yet?

No Littlefoot, not yet.

But, you do know

where we're going to go, right?

Not exactly, Littlefoot.

Then how will you know,

when we get there?

I'll just know.

I'm glad we are not there yet,

I don't like this place.

What do you think Littlefoot?

Do you like this place any better?

At least there's just to eat.

Watch your stepp Dear,

this is deeper, than it looks.

Doesn't look too deep to me.

Besides, there are rocks to walk on.

Littlefoot, carefull.

Hey, look at me, this is fine.

Carefull.

Slow down, Littlefoot,

and watch where you are stepping.

You better walk faster,

if you wanna keep up with me.

Littlefoot.

Littlefoot, stop! No!

Wow!

I hate those things, don't you?

So annoying

when they nibble on your foot.

How can we thank you

for saving Littlefoot?

Littlefoot.

Is that you?

Oh, cute.

I'm Sue, and you don't have to thank me.

It was fun.

What's the point of having big feet,

if you don't step on bad guys

every now and then?

I... I don't wanna be pushier or anything,

but could I take along with you?

I think we are heading the same way.

We'd be honoured.

Thanks.

You had a busy day, haven't you?

Aha.

And I bet, you haven't been sleeping too well

the last few days either, right?

How did you know?

I just figured you and your folks

were out here for the same reason as me.

The sleepstory, right?

Yeah, the one about...

The Great Circle.

I wonder if everybody had

the exact same sleepstory.

Everybody?

What do you mean?

You think that there are others,

who've seen that story in their sleep?

Why not,

what makes us think we are so special.

I bet lonknecks everywhere

having that sleepstory

and since it was the sleepstory

that started us all on this journey,

I think we are going to meet

a lot of longnecks on our way.

Of coure allways the tallest one,

story of my life.

Just once I'd like to meet someone

I could look up to. You know.

Good night, Littlefoot.

Sleep well.

No. No.

Hurray longnecks.

Long live Littlefoot!

Littlefoot, Littlefoot, Littlefoot!

Littlefoot, Littlefoot!

Huh? Dad?

Littlefoot, Littlefoot!

Nooooooooo!

Auch!

Chssss! Come on!

Come on, where?

Sorry. Where?

We are going to see

just what kind of adventure Littlefoot is having.

Yep, yep, yep.

Let us pick up Spike too!

Spike, Spike, wake up...

Spike, Spike, Spike.

Ducky, we don't have all night.

Let's go.

I do not think he is awake yet.

Spike.

I think he bent my peak.

Psst!

Petrie, wake up!

Petrie, Petrie!

Psst! Petrie!

Nice lime, are you ready?

Me always ready.

Then let's go find Littlefoot.

What happend to your peak?

How we find them anyway,

they long gone?

One good thing about longnecks:

really big footmarks.

Grandma, in your sleepstorys,

did you see scary things?

Well Dear,

I saw things I can't quite explain.

That doesn't mean, they are scary,

I also saw some beautifull things.

It was all mixed up together.

And in the end of each sleepstory,

when I woke up,

I just had the feeling

that whatever was going to happen
