Not to far from the group, the trail was still being followed. The mysterious figure continues to follow the tracks left by Manny and the others had left. The tiger leaned down and sniffed the tracks.

"Four hours old." he said to himself. "I'm getting closer to them, and to my revenge."

He got back up and looked ahead, seeing the tracks go ahead. His eyes glared evilly.

"Both of you have taken everything from me." he said, "The time has come to pay for your actions."

He kept moving, hollowing the tracks to his the ones he seeks to find.

The next day, as the sun began to rise and give is light to the land, Diego began to wake, and along with Shira.

"Mourning." He said, to his awakening wife.

"Mourning." she said back, getting back up on her paws.

Shira felt a growl in her stomach.

"The cubs are hungry." she said.

Diego got up from the place where he had slept.

"I'll go hunt up ahead, meet up with you guys later." Diego said.

"Alright, but don't take too long." said Shira, still concerned about the damn going to give.

"Don't worry, I'll be back, soon." Diego reassured as he then turned and headed out to hunt.

Just then, Manny woke up from his sleep. He yawned as he got up. He looked over to Peaches and Ellie.

"Peaches, Elli, time to get up." he said, eager to get back on the road and get to the boat.

"Aw dad, just a little longer." Peaches moaned.

"unless you wanna be under water, no." Manny said.

Peaches and Elli tails then let go of the branch, the two landed on their four.

"Manny you need to calm down." Elli said.

"Elli, a damn on the other side of the valley is about to burst, there's no time to waist." Manny explained.

The worried Mammoth then turned to the two possums, fast asleep. He whacks the two with his trucks, twist the two up and waking them from their slumber.

"Hey, wake up, we got to go." Manny said.

"Okay we're up, we're up." the two brothers." the two said.

"Hey take it easy, Manny." Shira said, coming up to them.

"Do I have to say this to everyone?" asked Manny. "We have a flood to escape from."

"I'm not saying we shouldn't worry about this." Shira explained. "But we can't keep going like this."

"Diego help me out here." said Manny, as he looks from Shira and saw that Diego was gone.

"Diego?" he asked. "Where's Diego?"

"He went hunting, he said he'd meet us on the other side of the river." Shira explained.

Manny sighed, seeing that everything was getting out of hand, at least to him. But he knew that his cubs needed to eat.

"Alright, lets keep going." Manny said as he turned and headed down the path.

Everyone else followed after him. The pregnant tigress hopped that her mate would catch up.

Meanwhile, Diego wondered through the forest in search for food for Shira. He came across the tracks of a deer. Knowing its the best thing for food, he followed the tracks. Yet little did he know, that he was followed by a white sabre.

"There you are." He said, seeing the orange sabre with his one, good right eye.

(Guess who the sabre is, it will be revealed next chapter, hope you enjoyed, please comment and review)
