Chapter 1 – Finding a cave
Few minutes ago herd just got off their ship and now they must find where to live on this new island.
Manny: ok everyone i think we should split up so we can find caves easier, if you find big enough cave to fit all of us in just get to us as soon it's possible
Ellie: ok so... who is going with who?
Manny: ok Sid you are going to east side of the island along with Crash and Eddie and Granny
They nodded and started going east
Manny: I am going with Ellie north and now you Diego you go with Shira west .
Diego: alright Manny
Shira: ok
Peaches: dad i'm going with my friends now
Manny: ok but come back an hour after sunset
Peaches nodded as she left with other teens
They all left except for Diego and Shira
Shira and Diego
Diego: so um Shira...
Shira: yes?
Diego: do you like people in our herd?
Shira: i think they are very friendly but i haven't really got a chance to really talk to them yet.
Diego: alright
Shira: hey Diego can i ask you something?
Diego: sure
Shira: why did you accepted me in your herd?
Diego was kind of confused with this question
Diego: what do you mean?
Shira: i mean like i almost killed you at Gutt's ship so it's kind of strange that you would let me in your herd.
Diego: i think you are a good person that's why i want you to be in our herd ( he said smiling)
Shira: thanks but i don't think they are going to like me ( she said with sad expression on her face)
Diego: why do you think so?
Shira: i don't know i just feel like that will happen.
Diego: hey this is the most friendly group of animals you can meet i think they will adore you
Shira: thanks ( she said while smiling)
Diego: you welcome, so let' go and find us a cave
Shira: sure
They walked down a path for like 5 – 10 minutes in complete silence until Shira asked Diego
Shira: what do you think of this island by far?
Diego: i kind of like it
Shira: yeah me too but i haven't really been that much on land i was mostly on sea
Diego: don't worry you'll get used to it
They again started walking for like 5 minutes in silence until they found ...
Shira: hey look over there it looks like a very big cave.
Diego: yeah let's go inside
Shira nodded
They walked inside of the very big cave and on their surprise it was empty and it was a perfect place for herd to live in
Diego: wow l really like this cave
Shira: yeah me too
Diego: let's go and find others
Shira nodded as they started walking back
After few minutes Diego asked Shira
Diego: hey what changed your mind when you pinned me to the ground one day ago when we were escaping with Gutt's ship
Shira didn't know how to respond back
Shira: i.. don't know it's just that when i saw how much you care for you friends i didn't want Gutt to kill such a person like you
Diego: i umm thanks
Diego: hey can i ask you something
Shira: sure
Diego: why did you want to be in our herd i mean like are you in our herd because you don't have a choice or because you want to be with us
Shira: i like this herd that's why i want to be with you but if you don't like me than that's ok
Diego: what no i really like you i mean you know what i mean ( he blushed a little bit)
Shire: yeah i know ( she also did)
Diego and Shira saw herd at the same place they got off of ship and walked closer to them
Diego: hey guys we found a big cave enough for all of us
Manny: really that's great where?
Shira: not too far away we just follow this path
Ellie: ok everybody let's go and check that cave out
Everyone nodded and started going in cave's direction
15 minutes later they all arrived at the cave
Ellie: this cave is very big
Sid: yeah just perfect
Granny: ah finally i can rest ( she said as she sat on the rock)
Eddie and Crash: i like it here even though i like sleeping on tress
Ellie: hey don't worry we can sleep outside of the cave
Eddie and Crash: yeah!( they shouted)
They all sat there resting for few hours until it was sunset
Manny : i'm going to find Peaches
Ellie: i'm coming with you
They walked out of cave in search of their daughter
Sid: aaah ( he yawned) i'm going to sleep
Eddie and Crash: we too we had a long day.
Diego walked up to Shira and asked her
Diego: what are you going to do now?
Shira: i don't know what about you?
Diego : i was wondering if you want to um go for a walk with me if you want.
Shira: sure i would love to
Diego: alright ( he said in happy tone)
As he said that he and Shira got out of cave and started walking down the same path.
