A Sharptooth's Heart
A Sharptooth's Heart is a fanfic written by Sora WTK, which follows the story of a dracovol named Rex. The story so far has one complete story, and a sequel that is in progress.
Out of the Shadows takes place in an alternate universe of this story.
The author has also started writing an alternative universe based on A Sharptooth's Heart entitled Land Before Time: Battle Network.
Tropes Used In the Series:
- Actual Pacifist - Tree-star is this.
- Alternate Universe Fic - A Sharptooth's Heart takes place in an alternate future of Land Before Time, where Ruby does not exist and Chomper never came to live in the Great Valley.
- Be All My Sins Remembered - Rex feels this way after attacking an innocent dinosaur.
- Berserk Button - Rex, when his sharptooth instinct kicks in and he kills Zill in a fit of rage.
- Better Than Canon
- Canon Defilement - Although not as graphic as Out of the Shadows, there are some seriously violent moments, such Rex kills Zill and when Axel rips out the wings out of Vlad's mother.
- Classic Villain - Bull and Rorra, though for different reasons. Bull has a vendetta while Rorra merely wants power.
- Complete Monster - Definitely Axel. She is among the cruelest of the Darkarians, to the point where she is considered to be a double edged sword.
- Other antagonists fit this as well.
- Dark and Troubled Past - Zebulon, because he left the Rock Rangers after they locked down on him for being Rorra's brother.
- Dark Is Evil - The Darkarians.
- Bull has black skin and red stripes, both colors often associated with evil.
- Fix Fic - The author manages to fix a big hole in the Land Before Time universe before Universal did in the TV series. The movies never explain how sharpteeth are never able to enter the valley. In A Sharptooth's Heart II, it's revealed that alimons have been protecting the valley for a long time.
- Good Is Not Nice - Donovan may be Stone's right hand man, but he can be hostile.
- Midnight as well, due to being too blatantly honest.
- Hates Everyone Equally - Kumo, subverted. Though he doesn't actually hate everyone, he is resentful due to being taken into Fortress Valley and losing his wings and no one tries to save him.
- Hidden Badass - Terrel, who drops a boulder on Redclaw.
- I Am Who? - In the second story, Rex finally learns what his species is.
- Kids Are Cruel - Kumo digs his claws in so far into Cera's spine that she almost could have died.
- Lack of Empathy - Axel.
- This is a common trait amongst the Darkarians. Other villains of the story may be like this as well.
- Light Is Good - The Rock Rangers.
- Original Character - This story is full of these.
- Out-of-Character Moment - Rex when he nearly killed Cera. Subverted, it was really Kumo.
- The Exile - Rex willingly becomes this after he breaks his promise to Grandpa Longneck.
- The Stoic - Kumo, for the most part.
- War Fic - Between the Darkarians and Rock Rangers, as well as Yu's pack and Bull's pack.
- What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids? - The story can get very violent, with plenty of not so pretty scenery.
- What the Hell, Hero? - When the gang thought that Rex tried to murder Cera.
- You Will Be Assimilated - There is a plot to make Rex defect to the evil dracovol's side.
