Hey guys. Again I´m back with a new FF story to Ice Age.

At first I want to say that I changed my name from "DiegoxShira" to "TimberPaw" because of three main reasons.
-) Firstly I don´t only write DiegoxShira stories. (but they are still my favourite!)
-) Secondly a "Timber wolf" is a very cool wolf species and I love wolfs.
-) Timber is my favourite song
I will not change my name again/back.

A/N to this story:

WARNING: Rating T for some violence scenes

-) Main Ice Age character is Shira. (Others are maybe only at the end)

-) Whole story in 3rd persons P.O.V. written.

-) It is set in present, at my house and at some places/ cities in Austria. (So story includes humans)

-) Some own characters (humans and animals) are based on real people from my family, friends and me too. :)

-) Only the main human character is able to understand animals. (Don´t ask me why XD)

Ok I said enough, lets start and don´t forget: Enjoy :)

Technical Problems

It was early in the evening when the last sun beams of a long midsummer day vanished behind the red horizon. People were driving back from their work and some of them stuck like always in long, seemingly endless traffic jams.

Brake lights enlightened up the highway and the smell of hundreds motors was floating the air. People wanted to get home and some of them didn´t have the nerves for stucking in a traffic jam.

"Move on! Is it too difficult to press the gas pedal instead of the brake!?", an angry man shouted exasperated, leaning his head out of his standing car. He pressed his horn continuously, already becoming very unpopular by the other drivers.

"Man, calm down. We can´t drive. You should turn on your radio. They told that there´s an accident a few kilometers in front of us. Ok?", a trucker shouted from a small truck infront of the mans car.

"Do you know what? Your mother told me that you are to only accident on this road! Move on!", the man shouted again, this time losing his nerves completely.

One door of the truck opened and the trucker got out. Loud Hard Rock music was playing inside his car until he closed the door again. The trucker, who had a body like a bodybuilder or a boxer, slowly went up to the mans car.

"So … you really want get to know to my two little babies here?", the trucker said sarcastic while he kissed his two, really big arm muscels. He had a small smile on his scarred, sweaty face.

The man in his car slowly realized that he went too far and knew that he had challenged this situation. Fear was rising inside him. The trucker held his right hand up in the air, forming it to a fist.

"S-sir, p-please not. I´m s-sure we c-…"

BAAAAAMMMMMM! (punsh)

At the same time 30 minutes away from the traffic jam in a city which is called Wiener Neustadt. The city was at that time exactely the opposite of the loud, stinky highway. Only some cars were driving though the empty streets. A bit outside the city it was already completely silent and you were able to hear the crickets chirping.

It was Monday, 23:00 pm. While most of the people were already asleep, almost all elder children of the city were having a party in different clubs like every night, celebrateing that the holidays started. But as I told, not everyone was employed with becoming drunk or having a party with some friends.

Outside the party center in a small house.

Almost the whole house was dark and the owners already went to bed, trying to fall asleep in this really hot night. Even the sun already went down, their were still more than 27 degrees in each room.

But one single room was still lightly illuminated with the light of a computer screen. Fingers were flying over the keyboard, typing continuously word for word. And slowly the words became to a chapter and the chapters to a story.

It seemed that the writer nerver will stop writing, that his ideas never will stop popping out of his mind and it looked like that nobody is able stop him writing down his thoughts.

Well nobody exept a small tiny cat.

"Oh, hey Muki. Can not sleep too?", he talked to the cat infront of him, which was now standing on the keyboard. Muki started to nuzzle the writers hands, while her tail was stoking over his face, making him giggle a bit.

"You want attention, or? I promise I will play with you tomorrow but for now, can you please move away. I can´t see anything." he said, stroking his cats back. The cat still stand at her place and kept one pressing some letters on the keyboard.

"Okay, now it´s enough you litte nuisance", and he grabbed Muki up and placed her on the floor. "Sorry, maby next time.", he exused himself and looked back at the screen infront of him.

He frozed. The screen showed a little dialog.

Process: Deleting Windows

Status: Complete

Shut down in: 5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1

The screen finally became totally black.

"What!? … No, … No! C´mon that can´t be true. I was almost at the end. Don´t do that to me.", he said with a desperate voice while he pressed the "power on" button again and again. Nothing happened.

"Awww. Fuck you cat!", he shouted and bang shut the display of his notebook. A small, light green electric lightning appeared and shocked him. He stumbled a few steps back bumped against his closet.

He saw everything in a fuzzy way and also things, which aren´t reality. Infront of him appeared a snow landscape and a very heavy snow thunder. He tried to see something in it but before he was able to he got back to reality.

While rubbing his hurting head, he steped back to his desk and opened the notebook again and that what he saw didn´t make him happier. A big crack ran across the screen.

"Great, now it can not became worse", he stated and closed it again. But as it has to happen, he felt a ligh pain inside his hand. He looked at it and saw some blood running down his middle finger.

"Are you kidding?", he said to himself and went out of his room, down stairs. He cleaned his wound and put a pavement on it. Before he entered his room again, he went to the bath, drinking some water.

"Okay, calm down. That was just an imagination of my overtired mind. Not real. I need to get some sleep.", and he went back to his room.

Muki was lying on his bed, cleaning her fur. "Ok, I give you 3 seconds.", he said and counted down. Muki of cours don´t understand and just stared at him. "You really set my nervs on a hard trail today.", he sighted and pushed Muki down.

He lyed down and tried to get some sleep in this extremly hot night. "How I hate this cat sometimes", he thought and slowly faded away, thinking of the snow landscape he had seen.

So, there´s the first chapter. Hope you liked it. Until now there is not much "Ice Age" in this story but this will change soon. Please don´t forget to review or to write a Pm. Your review helps me to become a better writer and you will encourage me to update sooner.
