Ten years later…

"Mom! Dad! Auntie! Uncle! Come on, hurry up!" called out some young energetic voices. Hurrying up a hillside ran a group of seven young clubtails, the same clubtails that Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, Petrie and Spike had saved as eggs ten years ago. They were followed by their parents, who were exhaustedly trying to keep up with them.

"Aunt Ducky says it's nearly time!" one of the little clubtails called out.

"Thanks for telling us," Mr. Clubtail gasped, as he and the rest of the grown up clubtails tried to keep up. The young clubtails, still just as rambunctious as they were when they were babies, continued to rush forward, until abruptly, one of the clubtails crashed right into a light brown leg. Looking up, the young clubtail realized that she had crashed into a baby longneck, light brown but with a yellowish-tan belly.

"Oh! Sorry Heather!" the clubtail told the baby longneck.

Heather looked down and giggled gently. From above, Heather's mother looked down and gently said, "Be careful where you are going."

"We will, Mama Longneck," the clubtails called out.

Mama Longneck, who was Ali, smiled down at them. She was standing next to Shorty, who was now her husband. After the double wedding between Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky and Petrie took place, most of Ali's herd had returned back to their migrating life. But Ali, missing her Great Valley friends, had decided to spend the rest of her life in the Great Valley to be with them. She was joined by Shorty, who missed his Great Valley friends just like Ali did, and Bron, who had decided to pass on his leadership mantle of his herd and retire to the Great Valley to be with his son. When the three of them settled in, they were like a family themselves, as Ali became something like an adopted daughter to Bron.

Ali and Shorty, meanwhile, who had already been getting to know each other even before they began to live together, had slowly found their relationship turn from being friends to lovers, and eventually, the two of them were married. Ali and Shorty smiled as they looked down at their daughter, who had a mixture of both of their traits. She had Ali's back coloring but Shorty's belly coloring, and had ridges like Shorty's on top of her head, except that they were much smaller. Ali and Shorty smiled as they looked out, knowing that their daughter would have some playmates that would hatch right before their eyes.

Ali and Shorty were not the only new couple that formed in the passing years. Chomper and Ruby, who had previously had an older sister-little brother like relationship, felt their relationship begin to change as Chomper became a young adult. The two of them both had secret feelings for each other for a while, uncomfortable with telling each other due to their age, size, and diet differences, but eventually they confessed their feelings for each other and married shortly afterwards. Chomper had since moved back in the Great Valley after leaving his parents, though he continued to see them every day while going out to the big water to hunt. He was able to spend plenty of quality time with his parents, for in the lake where they hunted, there was no shortage of food so they didn't have to focus on hunting very much. Every day, Chomper had plenty to eat, for Chomper liked to eat all of the finned swimmers that he could find, but just as they were with his parents, the swimming sharpteeth were his favorite.

Because of their dietary differences and Chomper's fear that a son of his could prove to be a threat to the Great Valley someday, Chomper and Ruby had not been planning on having any kids. But all of that changed after a long day of hunting swimming sharpteeth, when Chomper found a toddler sailcrawler scouring the beach, looking for tall grasses to eat. She introduced herself as Edina and explained that her parents had gotten washed away by the big water. Chomper helped her search for her parents, but upon realizing that they must have drowned in the waves, Chomper brought her to the Great Valley where he and Ruby adopted her as their own daughter. The three of them were also in the crowd, waiting for the special moment to come.

Spike meanwhile, had begun to talk a little more often upon becoming an adult, but he still seldom spoke and it was only under special occasions when he talked. To everyone's surprise, Spike had managed to find love himself with a wife that couldn't be more suited to him. Spike's wife was a young, laid-back, grey-bodied and yellow plated spiketail named Sophie who had come to visit the Great Valley. Having grown up with a mute brother, Sophie was naturally in tune with all of Spike's nonverbal ways of communication, and she usually communicated with him through the same gestures, grunts, and looks that he made. The two spiketails also had other things in common, for like Spike, Sophie loved to eat and got along well with other species of dinosaurs.

It wasn't long after they met that Spike and Sophie fell in love, and quickly, the two of them married. The two of them already had a baby boy, who was green and had yellow plates, named Star, for that was the first word he said upon being asked for a name. Later Spike and Sophie figured that he probably wasn't answering their question, but instead, he just simply wanted more treestars. Like his parents, Star had an immense appetite, and he spent every opportunity he could trying to find food to eat. Still, despite being married and busy taking care of his son, Spike still spent plenty of time with his old friends every day, and had joined them on many adventures they had in the passing years. Like with the other new families, Spike, Sophie and Star were standing in the crowd, anxiously awaiting the moments they had gathered for.

The crowd was surrounding two clutches of eggs, and Littlefoot and Cera were standing by their two eggs while Ducky and Petrie were standing by their three. It had been months since Cera and Ducky had laid their eggs, and their eggs had began to develop cracks on them. Ducky, who knew a lot about eggs thanks to having many brothers and sisters and watching over the clubtail eggs on their journey, had been observing all of their eggs every day to see when they would hatch.

That morning, Ducky woke up with shock to find that all three of her and Petrie's eggs and both of Littlefoot's and Cera's eggs were wiggling determinedly, and Ducky instantly realized that all of their eggs were going to hatch later that day. Ducky decided to gather the other mothers over to see if they thought the same, and Tria, Mama Swimmer, Mama Flyer, Ali and Sophie hurriedly came over to help. Upon examining the eggs, they all knew that this was the day that the five little eggs would finally hatch, and they had let everyone in the Great Valley know as the crowd gathered to celebrate the occasion.

"I can't wait for my new playmates to hatch, can't you Star, Heather?" Edina asked the two babies, who nodded happily.

"Now Edina, remember that they're hatchlings," Ruby told her gently. "Make sure to be careful with them!"

"I will Mom," Edina told her. "But I'm still really excited!"

"We are too," Chomper told his adopted daughter. Then he smiled at Ruby, knowing that their daughter was really looking forward to the hatching of her future playmates..

Meanwhile, Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, and Petrie were looking down at their eggs, each of whom were beginning to move slowly.

"What do you think our babies are going to be like?" Littlefoot asked happily.

"I don't know," Cera answered. "But I'm sure that they'll be just as amazing as we are!"

"Have any of you been coming up with names?" Ducky asked curiously. "I have tried, and I have some ideas. But it is hard to come up with names when you do not know what your babies will be like, it is."

"Well I've thought of some ideas for names," Cera told Littlefoot, smirking.

"What are they?" Petrie asked curiously. "Me really want to know!"

"Well, I'm not telling you yet!" Cera replied, and they laughed.

Meanwhile, the future grandparents were looking out at their children finally preparing to have children of their own.

"What's it like to be a grandparent?" Mama Flyer asked Bron as the other grandparents looked curiously at him.

"More wonderful than you can imagine," Bron replied. "It's almost like having a child all over again…"

"I'm so happy that Cera and Ducky were able to lay eggs," Tria added. "Cera was so shocked when I told her that she was going to have a hatchling."

Mama Swimmer smiled. "Yeah, Ducky was really surprised too when I told her, and so was I. I honestly wasn't sure that it was possible for them to lay eggs, but I'm so happy that it was! What do you think our grandchildren will be like?"

"Well, one thing's for sure," Topps declared. "Considering who their parents are, they've got to be quite a bunch of characters."

All the grownups laughed to each other, as Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, and Petrie continued to look down at their eggs. Their eggs had been jiggling and swerving restlessly for the past few minutes, rattling wildly against their nests. Littlefoot and Cera looked at each other as they bent their heads down close to their eggs, while Ducky and Petrie could hardly contain their anticipation as they excitedly grinned at each other, waiting for their eggs to hatch.

Then, Ducky gasped. One of the eggs in her nest began to skitter from side to side of the nest, causing her heart to beat rapidly. She then smiled and called out, "Look everyone! One of our eggs is hatching!"

A few seconds later, the egg cracked open and out rolled their new baby. The baby was a boy flyer, colored in Petrie's shade of brown but had Ducky's bright, exuberant eyes. He instantly looked up at his parents, and said, "Yep yep yep!"

"He talked already!" Ducky gasped, shocked.

"And he…talk like you!" Petrie told Ducky in disbelief, and the two of them giggled. "Me think you name him, Ducky."

"Well…how about Pterrence, but we could call him Pterry for short," Ducky suggested.

"Me like it," Petrie told Ducky happily, before the two of them looked at their son, who was looking attentively back at them.

"Is Pterry all right with you?" Ducky asked gently, and Pterry nodded.

Then, Ducky and Petrie gasped as they saw another one of their eggs begin to move. This egg slowly broke open, being slowly pushed open from inside, before another baby came out. This baby was a greenish-brown colored boy, and unlike Pterry, was a swimmer. The baby gasped as he stretched out his hands, then he caught sight of his unhatched sibling. He hurried over to hug the last egg, before backing up in surprise as the egg rolled down by his side with a large thud, causing him to shiver nervously.

"Aww, do not be afraid, "Ducky told her new son as he smiled at her. "It is just your baby brother or sister, it is,"

"Me know name for you!" Petrie gasped as Pterry excitedly nodded. "Me call you Oliver!"

Oliver looked at Petrie, and nodded, before he moved over to cuddle Pterry, who looked happily at him and said, "Yep yep yep". But a second later, Ducky and Petrie gasped again as they saw that their last baby had began to hatch. Ducky and Petrie gasped as their last egg rotated round and round in a circle before a green-colored girl swimmer came out of her egg. At first glance, she looked very much like Ducky, with bright blue eyes and a happy-go-lucky smile, except that she had brown stripes on her back. To Ducky's and Petrie's surprise however, she began to flap her arms, revealing small wings as she looked up at the sky happily.

"She flyer too!" Petrie exclaimed. "Wanna go ride?"

The baby nodded happily, and Ducky helped prop her daughter upon Petrie's back. Petrie then gently glided over their nest, causing their baby to shriek and cry with happiness. Petrie called out, "We should name her after sky since she like it so much!"

"Good idea, yep yep yep! Maybe… we could name her Augustina after the wind, but we'll call her Tina for short?"

Tina nodded with her name, before she settled by Pterry and Oliver.

The audience began to cheer, but right after they started, Cera nudged Littlefoot, hardly daring to believe the sight below her. "Littlefoot, look!" she gasped excitedly.

Below, Littlefoot and Cera looked and saw that one of their eggs had begun to wiggle wildly, rolling from side to side of the nest. A second later, a threehorn boy had horned his way out of his egg and jumped into the nest. Though he was built like Cera, he was had Littlefoot's shade of light brown on his back and tan on his belly, and had a longer neck than most threehorns. Upon hatching, the baby instantly began to sniff his nest.

"He has your curiosity," Cera told Littlefoot happily.

Littlefoot nodded, smiling at his son, before he cried, "Cera, look out!" With a running start, the baby had abruptly tried to jump on Cera's back, gasping determinedly to get up as he gripped onto Cera's side. Cera and Littlefoot laughed as Cera set him back down in their nest.

"And your feistiness," Littlefoot laughed to Cera. "I think you better name him Cera. He'd probably like whatever you gave him."

"Well….how about…Cero," Cera smirked.

"But that's your name!" Littlefoot cried out, laughing.

"Well, I have the best name in the world, don't I?" Cera asked, and the two of them laughed.

The baby however, nodded vigorously. Littlefoot and Cera looked at their baby in surprise. "I was just joking," Cera told Littlefoot.

"But I don't think he is," Littlefoot smiled.

"You really like that name?" Cera asked their baby. Their baby looked at Littlefoot and Cera and nodded vigorously.

Cera looked at the baby threehorn, before saying, "Well, Cero it is then!"

Cero nodded happily, before the final egg had begun to hatch, spinning and jumping up and down. Looking down, Littlefoot and Cera saw that their baby hatched in mid air, and flopping down on the nest was a girl longneck. However, she had Cera's orange skin color, as well as her green eyes, and had a tiny horn-like bump on her head. She instantly looked up at Littlefoot and Cera adoringly, and she rubbed against them both.

"Aww," Cera sighed. "She's so sweet…you should name her, Littlefoot."

Littlefoot looked down at their daughter, who was still rubbing against them. Littlefoot took a step away as he tried to get a better look at their daughter, but she followed him and continued to rub and coo affectionately.

"She might be sweet, but she still has that stubborn streak," Littlefoot told Cera.

"Who are you calling stubborn?" Cera playfully growled as they both laughed.

Littlefoot smiled down at his daughter, and then said, "She's so gentle and warm...just like my mom... That's it! I'll call her Patty, after my mom."

"Okay, "Cera told Littlefoot, smiling and nodding.

"What do you think?" Littlefoot asked gently. The baby nodded her head, and returned rubbing against Littlefoot and Cera, before Littlefoot said, "Patty it is then!"

Then, everyone began to cheer at the babies, all of whom had finally hatched from their eggs. Looking down, Littlefoot and Cera saw that Cero and Patty were already playing together, while Pterry, Oliver, and Tina were also playing. Then, Littlefoot and Cera picked up their kids while Ducky and Petrie picked up theirs, and brought them all together to the middle. At once, the five babies looked at each other excitedly, before beginning to chase each other through the clearing. Not able to resist any more, Edina, Heather, and Star ran out of the circle, joining the babies in their fun, with Spike following them to keep an eye on his son and to join his old friends.

"We're gonna have a lot of fun together, guys!" Edina cried out, as the babies happily nodded with each other.

Then, Littlefoot, Cera, Ducky, Petrie, and Spike looked at each other, and at that moment they realized that with the birth of their children, their next great adventure had just begun.
