ALL:

More?

ALL:
More. More. More.

(ALL CHEERING)

Hello.

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

Me Petrie.

ALL:
Petrie!

Petrie! Petrie!

Whatcha doin', hon?

I'm gonna go help my friends.

Aren't you nice.

You know, I had a cousin

who was nice like that.

She put her head in the mouth

of a Sharptooth just to help a friend.

Course, she's not

around anymore, 'cause...

Well, she put her head

in the mouth of a Sharptooth.

(LAUGHS)

Oh! I'm Etta, by the way.

What's your name?

Littlefoot.

Sorry.

Nice to meet you, Fiddlefoot.

You don't mind me saying,

you look more like a Littlefoot.

That's what I'm gonna call you.

Nice to meet you, Etta.

Look, Etta!

Daylight!

(RUMBLING)

What?

Earthshake!

Whoa!

Etta!

(CRASHING)

(BOTH GASP)

(SIGHS)

That was a close one.

The opening.

We gotta move this.

(BOTH STRAINING)

Looks like we're good and stuck.

(SIGHS)

CERA:
Petrie!

Petrie!

(MOANS)

Hmm.

Are you sure this is the right way?

Look! Footprints!

Now we're getting somewhere!

Hmm.

But that's Spike's footprint.

And yours.

Oh, you just led us in a circle.

Oh.

Well, maybe I meant to do that.

(GASPS)

(STUTTERING)

What's going on?

Hey! Get away!

Big dinner for leader!

(GASPS)

Get leader!

ALL:
Leader!

Leader! Leader!

(STAMMERING)

I'm not afraid of your silly old leader.

Here come leader!

(BOTH GASP)

Petrie!

We found you!

Huh?

(MOANS EXCITEDLY)

(SIGHING)

Petrie so glad to see you.

You?

You can't be their leader!

ALL:
(CHANTING)

Petrie! Petrie! Petrie!

(CHUCKLES)

Me think me can.

You don't even know

how to be a leader.

Oh, it no hard.

Watch.

ALL:
(CHANTING) Leader!

Leader! Leader!

Huh?

I wish Littlefoot could see this.

No find yet?

(MOANS SADLY)

He's probably

at the Fire Mountain by now.

(GRUNTING)

(SIGHS)

We should find the Long Valley.

What do you think we should do?

I just told you.

I mean Petrie.

Who cares what Petrie thinks?

ALL:
(CHANTING) Petrie!

Petrie! Petrie!

They care.

Well?

Petrie think...

Well, Petrie think, um...

We're waiting!

Uh, being leader hard.

(SIGHS)

But Petrie miss Littlefoot.

(MOANS IN AGREEMENT)

Us, too.

Yep, yep, yep.

Well, how are you

supposed to find him?

We don't even know where we are!

So we are lost.

(GULPS)

No, no, we're not.

I mean, not really.

Okay, we are lost.

And I miss him, too.

Let's go find him.

Petrie must go

and find friend.

ALL:
No! No! No!

No be sad.

Um...

Petrie order no be sad.

Petrie always remember you.

And you.

And back there, all you.

ALL:
Petrie! Petrie!

Petrie!

(RUSTLING)

ALL:
Oh!

(LAUGHING)

Leader! Leader! Leader!

(CHEERING) Yay!

(SPIKE GROANS)

(LITTLEFOOT GRUNTING)

Littlefoot, leave it be.

Honey, no one can break through that.

Cera could.

But she's not here.

(SIGHS) It's hopeless.

Come on, Littlefoot, cheer up.

I had a sister once used to say,

"Just when things get darkest,"

"that's when you look for the light."

Unless, of course,

it's too dark to find it.

You don't understand.

My friends only came out here

to help me find my dad.

And now I can't save him.

Well, what...

What happened to your dad?

He got trapped by an earthshake

when the Fire Mountain blew up.

That's what Wild Arms said.

Wild Arms?

Oh, heck, I know a Wild Arms.

Moves like this?

Yes, that's him!

He travels with my dad's herd.

They all made it out okay,

except my dad.

Oh, my.

Is your father's name Bron?

Yeah, it is!

Oh, honey, I was there,

at Fire Mountain.

What happened?

Please tell me.

Okay.

But you may not like it.

The Fire Mountain

was shaking and rumbling.

Trouble was coming

and everybody knew it.

There was only one longneck who knew

what to do and that was your dad.

He ordered the herd to head down

the mountain as fast as they could.

But the Fire Mountain

didn't wait for them to get down.

(EXPLODING)

Ow!

I barely made it out myself.

Someone fell.

I think it was Wild Arms.

Your father went back

and saved him.

And that's when it happened.

There was an explosion.

Your father got separated

from the others.

Well, honey,

that's the last I saw of him.

That's my dad.

He wouldn't leave anyone behind.

Even though it meant

risking his life.

I guess that's what

you do for your herd.

And your friends.

I never should have left them.

Now, Littlefoot,

don't give up.

Get off your tail

and we're gonna get out of this cave.

How?

(SINGING) When you're stuck in a hole

and you don't know where to go

When it's too dark for you to tell

Your tail from your toe

You wonder which way is wrong

And which road is right?

The best thing

for you to do is just

Look for the light

Look for the light

One little spark

A little bit of hope

to lead you out of the dark

Somewhere deep inside of you,

it's shining so bright

All you gotta do is look

You gotta look for the light

If there's a wall,

sometimes you bump it

A big old rock, you have to jump it

Maybe you're tired

Maybe you're scared

(GASPS)

But the only thing you have to be

Is be prepared

To look for the light

And open your eyes

You never know when

you're gonna find a surprise

Some things may tickle you

(GIGGLING)

Others may bite

So, listen to my sister,

mister

Come on and look for the light

Get up and look for the light

Get up

and look for the light

Come on and look for the light

Well, that's what my

sister used to say,

but you can't exactly go by her.

She ran into a tree once and been

a little funny in the head ever since.

Hey, Etta!

Maybe that's a way out!

(SIGHS)

It's just light shining off the water.

Oh, I'm sorry, Littlefoot.

(SIGHS)

That's okay.

Let's keep looking for the light.

That's the spirit!

It's water, Etta!

Heard ya the first time,

but we're looking for a way out.

Like I was saying about my sister...

Etta, if water's coming in the cave,

you know what that means?

It's wet?

No. It means it has to be

going out, too!

If it wasn't, the cave would be

filled with water.

Oh, I didn't think of that.

If water can find a way out,

maybe we can, too!

I like the way you think, Littlefoot!

She had a lot of sayings,

my sister. Like...

You know, "Don't use your tail

to sniff the trail."

(LAUGHING)

Oh, that got me every time.

(MUMBLING)

Littlefoot!

Littlefoot!

Littlefoot!

Littlefoot!

(MOANS EXCITEDLY)

Hmm!

Oh! Look!

Littlefoot's footprints!

He must be close, yes, yes, yes!

Nice going, Spike!

That was hard to see with all these

Sharptooth footprints around.

Sharptooth?

(GROWLING)

(ALL GASPING)

(ROARING)

(SCREAMING)

CERA:
This way!

(GROWLING)

(SCREAMING)

(SHUDDERING)

(GROWLING)

(ROARING)

(GASPS) Look, Etta.

It's the moving water!

My friends and I were looking for it.

Oh, my.

It's under the ground!

That's why we couldn't

find it before.

I bet if we follow this water,

it will lead right

to the Fire Mountain.

Now all we have to do

is find my friends.

Hmm. But how?

They could be anywhere.

(INDISTINCT VOICES)

That's funny.

It's like I can hear them.
