Hey everyone I'm back again! Sorry for the long wait again I had a lot of vacation time to spend on plus I couldn't have time to use my laptop for anything. But any who the next chapter is up so enjoy and also give another thanks to White Hunter again with another brilliant idea!
After a few hours the gang kept on searching and searching following the footprints of their missing herd members hoping that they would find them soon. They wandered all through the valley as they tracked the footprints down till they came upon the open valley. The gang was exhausted for the moment but it wouldn't stop them from finding Zari and Ravi. As for Manny, he became sensed with paranoia as his thoughts kept saying that bad things were going to happen and he just couldn't stop thinking about it.
As the huge footprints along with the kids finally came to a stop, everyone's eyes widened when they discovered a large crevice cracked in the ground. They slowly took a peek forward and looked straight down and noticed it was very steep. Crash and Eddie even observed it as each of them dripped a drop of saliva from their mouths letting it drop till they could hear it crash on the way bottom.
Manny quickly observed Zari and Ravi's as they also stopped near the crevice and he worriedly glanced down. Ellie walked up by his side as he observed what he was seeing.
Manny glanced at Ellie. "You don't think…?"
"No Manny don't say that; they must have climbed down so that they could get away" Ellie reassured her husband
But Manny was already freaking out as his mind started to explode. "Oh great, what are we gonna do, they could be hurt or killed or even squashed; who knows they could be eaten by that whatever it's called or maybe worse even digested or pooped…" he exclaimed
Manny's pacing back and forth suddenly started to romp underneath the ground causing a crack in roots to awaken as it spreading down under, right under the herd.
"We gotta find them, we gotta find them, we gotta find them…" Manny panicked before Peaches stepped forward and stopped him
"Dad calm down you're overreacting" Peaches calmed him by wrapped her trunk around his
"I'm not overreacting sweetie, would I be overreacting, not me because that would be overreacting…" Manny panicked
(SLAP)
(SLAP)
(BOP)
"Snap out of it fathead, get a hold of yourself!" Duke stubbornly yelled out when he and his brothers slapped Manny out of his paranoia
Manny shook his head when suddenly he went back into normal stage and nodded to the hawk brothers. "Thanks"
"Are you alright daddy?" Peaches asked her father again
Manny took a deep breath before wrapped his trunk around his daughters and presses her head against his. "Yeah, I'm sorry sweetie it's just…"
"I know dad, I know, just have faith. We'll find them" Peaches told him before he hugged him back
"Your daughter is right Manny" Ellie calmed him. "Faith is always a good symbol"
Manny sighed deeply and hugged his wife and daughter back. As they finished from hugging Ellie walked over to the hawk brothers
"Fellas could you dive down and find trace of their tracks" Ellie ordered the hawk brothers
"Yes ma'am-(SLAP) Oh!" cried Duke, Thorn, and Chaos as they saluted but ended up slapping each other's wings in their faces.
Duke furiously turned to his idiotic brothers and double-slapped them in the face.
(DOUBLE-SLAP)
"Oh!" cried Thorn and Chaos
"What's the matter with you idiots? Didn't you hear the lady, we got a mission!" Duke stubbornly told his brothers
"Well what are we waiting for?" Thorn asked excitedly
"Yeah what are we waiting for?" Chaos asked feeling confused by the question
Duke frowned. "Nothing. C'mon!" he soon grabbed his brothers by the beaks and started dragging them to the crevice.
"Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh…" cried Thorn and Chaos with pain
Duke, Thorn, and Chaos got ready on their marks before the three jumped up in the air and flew straight into the hole.
(THUD)
The others were confused by the sound and looked over to take a peak only to find the hawk brothers stuck in the crevice at the same time.
(THUDDING)
(SCRAMBLING)
(SQUABBLING)
"ARG, what's the matter with you!" Duke yelled
"Get off of me you dimwit!" Thorn yelled
"I'm trying!" Chaos yelled
"Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh!" they cried at the same time
"I'll moider you when I get out of here!" Duke yelled
"Not if I moider you first!" yelled Thorn
"Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo" exclaimed Chaos
The three continued to squabble and struggle before the earth under them started to erupt at a very quiet level. Then it slowly began rising up to the surface.
"C'mon you jingo's quit fooling around!" Manny told them to knock it off
"No, no just keep doing what you're doing!" Crash called down telling them not to stop
Eddie jerked out laughing and slapped his brother on the back. "This is even better than the time Sid got stuck in that geyser"
"Yeah but with 'three' it's even more hilarious!" Crash jerked out before he and Eddie started laughing hysterically
The possum's brothers laughed before Louis stepped forward to them. "Don't you guys think you're a little too old for playing tricks on the elderly?"
"Oh we're not making fun of old, Weiner…" Crash reassured him sarcastically
"…we're laughing because it never gets old" Eddie reassured him sarcastically
The possum brother jerked out laughing some more as Louis slapped his head over his forehead.
"Nobody ever listens to a mole hog" said Louis feeling down
(CRACKING)
(THUMBLING)
(THUDDING)
Suddenly the earth started shaking under making the herd shake and twist as the plate underneath them started to tumbling down into the crevice.
"AAH…" cried Sid as he held onto Granny
"Get off of me you smelly excuse for a skunk!" Granny babbled stubbornly
"What's happening?" Louis asked frighteningly
Manny quickly rushed over to his family. "Ellie, Peaches-whoa!"
(CRACKING)
(THUDDING)
"Manny!" cried Ellie
"Daddy!" cried Peaches with fear
"Ellie, Peaches stay where you are! Stay where you all are!" Manny called out to everyone
(CRACKING)
(THUDDING)
The plat broke loose and soon started sliding to the edge before falling into the crevice as everyone screamed in terror.
"AAAAAHHHHH!" everyone screamed as they all fell into crevice before their screamed died out in echoing
(CRASHING)
(CRUMBLING)
(THUDDING)
(CRACKING)
(CRASHING)
Dust wet spreading around as the scene reveals around the bottom of the crevice as the others jumped out of the dust and rocks before they all started calling out for their friends.
"Manny, Ellie, Peaches, Crash, Eddie!" Sid called
"Precious, Precious you-hoo, c'mon here sweetie" Granny started calling out for her pet whale instead of the others
"Ellie, Peaches!" Manny called
"Manny, Crash, Eddie!" Ellie called
"Daddy, Louis!" Peaches called
"Ellie, Weiner!" Eddie called out
"Where are you?" Crash called out
Everyone soon found each other as they climbed down the crumbled rocks as they stood together as a group.
"Is everyone okay?" Manny asked protectively
"Wait a minute where Duke, Thorn, and Chaos?" Peaches asked with concern
Just before she said that they heard low distance screaming coming from above. Manny rolled his eyes up before the hawk brothers slammed right on top of Manny with a harsh crash.
"NNNNNYYYYYAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH-(CRASHING)" the hawk brothers screamed
The hawk brothers scrambled as they rolled around after falling down from the crevice. Thorn poked his head out from the back of Manny's head and raised a wing out.
"Here we are" Thorn said dizzily before falling into dizziness
"What happened?" Chaos asked
Duke grabbed him by the feathers and yelled. "You would start an avalanche dummy!"
(SLAP)
"Oh!" cried Chaos
(SLAP)
"Oh!" cried Chaos
(BONK)
"Oh!" cried Chaos
Granny sighed sternly before waddling over. Once she was close enough she raised her stick up and started whacking and smacking on Duke, Thorn, and Chaos's heads like frenzy.
(BOP)
(BOP)
(BOP)
(BOP)
(BOP)
"Shut up you jingo's I can't hear myself call Precious here, now clam up!" Granny sternly yelled before whacking them each once more
(BOP)
"Oh!" cried Duke as he covered his head
(BOP)
"Oh!" cried Thorn as he covered his head
Just before Granny bopped Chaos, Chaos ducked and stood back up with a smile.
"Ya missed me, YUK, YUK, YUK…" Chaos laughed before Granny poked him in the eyes
(POKE)
"Oh!" cried Chaos as he covered his eyes
"Respect your elders, now shut up!" Granny yelled once more before waddling back to Sid
The hawk brothers stopped before Manny stood back up causing the three to fall right off of him and on to the solid ground. He looked up into the crevice and say how far it was from down here and there wasn't any other way to get back up there.
"Okay…looks like we're not getting back up there" Manny told the others
"But how will we get home daddy?" Peaches asked her father
"We'll find a way baby, somehow" Ellie reassured her daughter as she held her close
"Hey everyone" Louis called out. "C'mon over, hurry!"
Everyone soon rushed over to where Louis was pointing and he pointed out a path that leads straight back up all the way to the surface.
"That path could lead us the way home, don't you think?" Louis suggested about taking the path tunnel
"Yeah Louis, but the problem with that is that it wouldn't be able to hold me, mom, and dad" Peaches pointed out that it wouldn't hold their weight
"Really?" Sid asked. "Because I thought mine was bigger from last winter" he asked referring to his belly even though he had no idea what the others were talking about
"Oh great even Weiner's smart idea didn't work" said Eddie feeling frustrated
"How are we going to get back up there now?" Crash asked
"We'll discuss that later when we find Zari and Ravi" Ellie reassured her brothers before Manny walked up beside her
"She's right let's not waste time, let's go everybody" Manny ordered
Everyone started following Manny's order as the herd continued moving forward. Just as they left, the camera moves up above ground showing Diego and Shira carefully climbing down the crevice. Diego made sure his wife was with him at all times so that she wouldn't fall over.
"Man, they've really got a thing for making this even tougher" said Diego as he climbed down
"I'd figure it too ages for us to get this far" Shira blurted out. "You think Zari and Ravi made it safely.
Diego turned over and nodded. "I'm sure they did"
Diego faced back as he watched his friends shadows disappear out of sight. Soon the orange saber's eyes glowed.
"Alright Manny…lead us the way" Diego said to himself.
The scene then changes back to the dinosaur world as the temperature started to get even hotter by the minute. It was just then when Zari, Ravi, and Lekin came through the bushes feeling hot and sweaty. The kids couldn't take much of this heat and decided to take a break for a while as they took off their winter coats and threw them away.
"Okay it pains me to say this but, I think higher up is better than lower down here" Lekin pointed out
"I can agree with you on that, that's for sure" said Zari agreeing with him
"Seriously how much hotter can it get" Lekin asked feeling irritated from the high temperatures
"You tell me? You're the 'leader' Mr. Adventure Guy" Zari affirmed him
Lekin chuckled and flipped his hair to the side giving her a smirk. "Are you insulting me?"
Zari gave him a blank look before crossing her arms. "Yes" she answered
"I don't buy it" said Lekin feeling unsatisfied
"Oh yeah…" said Zari before she roughly punched Lekin in stomach
(PUNCH)
"OW" cried Lekin as he grabbed onto his stomach and fell to his knees
"How about now" Zari asked smirking down at him
Lekin painfully raised his head up. "Checkmate" he said before falling on the ground
(THUDDING)
Zari dusted her hands before Ravi tugged her on the shoulder. "Zari I wanna go home, I don't like it down here"
Zari knelt down to her brother. "Yes I know me too and we're trying to figure that out. But don't worry we'll be back home before you know it"
"But what if we'll never…" Ravi asked before Zari placed her finger on his lips
"Hey, there's no such thing as 'never'. Never is always not the best choice okay; we'll find a way out of here I promise" Zari reassured him
"You promise?" Ravi asked
The two siblings placed their hands on each of their chests meaning this was they're way of saying 'promise' to each other.
"I promise" Zari promised him
That made Ravi feel much better before Zari stood back up and turned back to Lekin, who just recovered.
"Alright curly-lox what's the plan?" Lekin still feeling pain in his gut
"Okay first of we need to figure a way to get back up there and second we need to find someone to do it…"
(GASPING)
Zari gasped as she, Ravi, and Lekin looked over and discovered thousands of dinosaurs surrounding the three. They showed very unpleasant looks as glared down at the three. Ravi stayed close to his sister while Zari and Lekin lay back-to-back against each other.
(GROWLING)
(HISSING)
"Whoa…" said Ravi feeling fascinated
"They don't look happy" Zari whispered
"Hey Zari" Lekin whispered to her. "I'm starting to feel like when you're a mouse…it feels like coming face-to-face with a mammoth was the worse possibility of all, don't you think?"
Zari frowned feeling offended and she bopped Lekin in the back of the head with her fist.
(BOP)
"OW" cried Lekin feeling pain
The dinosaurs continued growling before suddenly a deranged weasel popped out of the ground and into the air.
(WHOOPING)
The weasel revealed to have brownish-red fur, blue eyes, and a leaf-shaped eye patch around his right eye. He was also carrying a tooth-shaped knife. Zari, Ravi, and Lekin were taken by surprise before the deranged weasel threw atomic stink berries at each of the dinosaurs.
The weasel took out one last berry before he called out. "Take cover!"
He threw the berry on the ground causing a smoke bomb to spread around the area. As it cleared up the dinosaurs discovered the kids and the deranged weasel has disappeared believing that they've escaped.
As the next scene changes, it shows Zari, Ravi, and Lekin pacing through the jungle till they stopped near a river as they tried to catch their breaths.
"I think we're safe here" Zari reassured the boys
"Yeah I didn't think they'd be angry to see us" Lekin blurted out
"What'd you expect a warming welcome from hundred prehistoric reptiles who were supposed to be extinct" Zari affirmed him
Lekin shook his head. "No didn't think so"
"Hey who was that weird-looking ferret anyway?" Ravi asked wondering what happened to the one-eyed weasel
"Yeah where is he anyway?" Lekin asked wondering where he was
"Well take a look around you little bipeds!" called out the deranged weasel as he popped out from behind Zari's head
The trio jumped up in surprise before the deranged weasel started inspecting Zari all over her body. The weasel sniffed from high to low before poking his head out Zari's curly hair from one side of her shoulder to the next. He then scurried off of her and jumped onto Ravi's shoulders and started inspecting all around him.
"Young, soft, curious…" said the weasel before he opened the boy's jaw and inspected inside his mouth. "…healthy and full of adventure I see"
The weasel hopped off and started inspecting Lekin as he pulled against the older boy's lips open inspecting his teeth as he stretched his lips out. Lekin didn't like this at all as he felt very uncomfortable.
"Buck!" The weasel shouted
"What?" Lekin asked confusingly
"The names Buck" Buck introduced himself. "Short for Buckminster; Long for buh"
Buck then hopped off of Lekin and landed safely on the ground and rested his knife over his shoulder. "What's a good couple of kids like you doing out here all alone?"
"Umm…well…you see it's like this, me and my brother ran away from home and while me and this moron were arguing about stuff, this thing comes out of nowhere and chases us down here. Now all we're trying to do is find our way back home" Zari explained their situation
"Well that's bad to hear love" said Buck feeling sorry for her. "Anything I could do to help you all out?"
"Actually there is…" said Zari before Lekin interrupted her
"Zari please I think we'll be fine going on our own; so thanks for the offer of slight-hand to madness but we're good anyway, see ya!" said Lekin refusing to have Buck help them
But Buck soon jumped into their way blocking them from leaving. "Whoa, whoa, whoa…whoa! You think this is some kind of tropical getaway? This ain't no playground to be messing with around here. I bet you wouldn't even last ten seconds out here y yourselves if you had the guts to do it" he pointed out
Lekin frowned before he raised a finger out. "Now look her you one-eyed piece of…"
(PUNCH)
"OW" cried Lekin when Zari socked him right in the shoulder with her fist
"What my college means to say is that would you please mind helping us find our way back home" Zari explained offering Buck to help them
Buck thought for a moment before throwing his knife down in the ground.
"Alright I'll help ya! But I got rules" Buck told the kids as he started explain his rules. "Rule #1 always listen to Buck"
The kids confusingly glanced at each other before raising their shoulders up.
"Rule #2 stay in the middle of the trail!" Buck explained his second rule
"And rule #3…" said Buck before he ominously pauses making Zari, Ravi, and Lekin cringe with fear before Buck smiled. "…he who has gas travels at the back of the pack"
Zari and Lekin raised a brow and glanced at each other with awkward expressions before Ravi lowered his arms and walked in the back of the two older teens.
Buck grabbed his knife and started leading the way. "Alright you lots, let's get a move on!"
Lekin glanced back at Zari. "He should get his brain examined that's for sure"
"Maybe he's a wonder weasel" Ravi suggested
"C'mon guys let's go" Zari told the two to come along as the three started following Buck up front.
"Thank you so much, I'm Zari by the way" Zari introduced herself
"I'm Ravi" Ravi introduced himself
"And I'm Lekin" Lekin introduced himself showing boredom and agony
"Well…Zari, Lekin, and cute little Ravi it's a pleasure to meet ya! Glad to hear some humans who can really understand what mammals are really saying around here. Now let's get you three home" said Buck as they started traveling off into the jungle
Well everyone another chapter is finally finished! And again sorry for the long wait I do apologize but I thank you for your patience. Anyway please review and keep spreading me more ideas and stay tuned because more will be coming your way!
