Ok, this is the beginning of the main story with Angel! Buck is in this one so it should prove to be interesting, but we won't see him in this chapter, sorry :( This basically picks up where This Time I'll Fight left off. Again, slight violence and blood in this one.
I don't own Ice Age; you all know I don't, so there should be no reason for me to say this. I just own Angel and Trey.

We'll Go Together
Chapter One
----*this is a line*----
Lightning flashed across the sky as the rain poured down in heavy sheets. A female weasel sat in a small cave she had found so that she could dry off and stay warm near the fire she had made. A loud roar echoed through the jungle and her amber eyes glanced toward the tooth by her tail. When the storm first started she had taken the opportunity to wash out the blood from her fur and from the tooth as well. The roar sounded again and Angel couldn't help but wonder if it was the same dinosaur she had encountered the previous day. She grabbed a nearby rock and began to sharpen the tooth; the tooth that now filled her heart with pain and heartache. She looked up when a shriek of pain screeched through the storm. The ground began to shake a few moments after and the silhouette of a huge dinosaur ran past her.
"What the heck was that...?" She asked aloud before going back to sharpening the tooth in her paw.
The storm had lasted all night and throughout the next day. Angel lounged about the cave, only leaving to gather some more twigs or branches to use for her fire. She couldn't sleep and she didn't want to. When she tried earlier, only images of her family's death played through her memory. Angel sighed and made her way to the entrance of the cave and looked outside. The storm had stopped and the sunlight reflected off of the raindrops on the leaves. Angel stretched as her stomach growled. She hadn't eaten anything the day before and she knew that if she planned on surviving down here she'd need to find food. Casting her eyes downward as she went toward the back of the cave she looked at the finished product of her work the day before. The sharpened tooth was now attached with vines to a branch she saved and the two were crafted into a sword. She carried it across her shoulder and walked out into the jungle in search of breakfast.
----*this is a line*----
Angel walked until she ended up in front of a valley of plates that were being held up by giant roots.
"This looks like the only way across…" she thought aloud.
Some parts of the plates cracked and fell off, but she hopped onto one and began walking again. Halfway across, she could see jungle again so she sped up her pace a bit to get there faster. Until that is, she heard hissing. The weasel turned toward the sound and saw a small flash of blue followed by two larger ones chasing after it. There was a squeal and a roar and before she knew it, Angel was chasing after them.
She jumped down through a crack in one of the plates and watched the scene unfold. There was a small, light blue dino cornered by two other larger dinosaurs which were hissing angrily. The smaller one was badly injured and left a trail of blood behind it leading up to the wall it was trapped by. Angel looked at the tiny dino, still only a baby, and it looked back at her with a single golden yellow eye. All she saw in it was pure fear.
Angel snarled and ran forward before leaping onto the back of one of the larger dinosaurs. It screeched in annoyance while its partner snapped at the weasel. Her amber eyes narrowed as she took aim and nailed the dino with a well timed slash at its neck causing it to fall to the ground in a convulsing heap. The other dinosaur that she was on roared in surprise and ran off as she jumped down from it.
"That's right, you better run!" she yelled at its retreating form.
Angel turned around and glanced at the baby dinosaur and brushed some of her hair out of her face.
"Hi there." She said softly as she slowly walked up to it.
The baby whimpered as it looked up at the weasel.
"It's okay, I won't hurt you." She sat the sword down and held out her paw.
The little dinosaur sniffed at it then limped over to her almost falling over on top of her. Angel rubbed its snout and checked it over to see how badly injured it was. Mostly just a few cuts and scrapes, and a gash here or there, but those would all heal up just fine. What she was worried about was its left eye. It was swollen shut and covered in blood.
"Come on, lets get you fixed up." she said as she carried her sword in her mouth and the baby in her arms and made her way out back toward the jungle.
----*this is a square... not really, it's still a line*----
After getting the dinosaur cleaned up and washing the blood out of her fur and off her sword, she covered the injured eye with a large leaf. The dino tried clawing at it in irritation but was stopped by Angel when she gave him a stern look.
"If you want your eye to heal, you're going to have to keep that on for a while." She said as she put her paws on her hips.
The baby snorted and sat in the shallow part of the water and splashed around in it a little. Angel smiled and watched it as she sat at the water's edge. She figured that she should name the little dinosaur.
It was a male Utah Raptor with a golden yellow eye, his right one surrounded by a dark blue patch. He had darker blue feathers on his head and arms giving him a slightly fluffy appearance. Black stripes went down his neck, back, tail, arms, and legs. His base color was a light blue.
Angel stared at the tiny raptor splashing in the water.
'His scales… they're the same shade of blue as his eyes…" she thought.
"I think I'll call you… Trey…" she told him as she started petting the top of his head and ruffling his feathers making them look even fluffier.
He purred and nuzzled his snout against the weasel's paw.
"You like that name, huh?"
Trey chirped in agreement then tilted his head to the side in confusion when Angel's stomach started growling again. She still hadn't eaten. She stood up and wandered over to another part of the river they were in with Trey following close behind. She spotted some fish darting around in the water and had two of them in her paws within a few seconds. She handed one to Trey and smiled.
"You need to eat too."
The little raptor squeaked happily before eating the fish and Angel chuckled to herself as she did the same.
