Meanwhile the two sabres continue to slide down the ice until finally they crashed into a large pile of snow. Shira was the first surfaced out of the snow as she shook the snow off of her white fur. She looked all around and saw no sign of Diego, Peaches and louis.

"Diego!" she called. "Peaches, Louis?!"

Just as Shira began thinking that she lost them Diego popped out of the snow. Shira turned to see Diego pulling himself out of the deep snow pile.

"Diego." she said as she went up and helped Diego out of the snow.

"Thanks." said Diego.

"Your welcome." said Shira.

Diego looked all around but saw no sign of Peaches, Louis or the baby.

"Wheres the kids?" asked Diego.

"They must have went through the other cave." Said Shira. "And the baby's with them."

"What?!" shrieked Diego looking at Shira with a shocked face. "Great, now what?"

Shira turned and looked ahead to see a rock cave.

"We go that way." explained Shira.

The two sabres went into the cave and inside the walls were drawn of the hunts of animals and humans. Shira looked at all the cave paintings drawn by humans. Shira then all of a sudden came to a stop as one grabbed her attention. For there was a white sabre mother and her daughter. Shira frown remembering that day. The last day she was ever with her mother. Diego looked back at Shira who stared at the cave wall.

"Shira?" He asked as he walked back to her.

Diego then saw that she was staring at the cave painting. Mainly the the mother and cub.

"Is this..?" he asked.

"Yes." she answered frowning, closing her eyes and looked down.

Diego felt so sorry for her. She lost someone she had love just as he did.

"The humans took her away from me." she explained. "I hate them for it but..."

"Its the kid isn't it?" asked Diego.

"Yeah." She answered. "We both lost someone important to us and as much as I wanted his herd gone, when I saw his mother in that stream... I... I couldn't."

Diego looked up at the wall. he saw above a painting of two sabres with there two parents. It reminded him of his lost family.

"I feel the same way." He said thinking of his family.

Shira turned to him and then looked up at the painting. She thought about how the two had something in common and how her feeling for him had grown. Although her will to obey Ramous, She wanted to tell Diego of how she feels about him.

But little did she know that Diego was thinking the same thing. Diego looked over at the white tigress. He felt so strange looking at her. everything from her white fur to her blue eyes was so beautiful and that he had something that he wanted to tell her. He approached the tigress.

"Shira." he said as she turned looked at him. "Theres something I have to tell you."

"What is it?" asked Shira.

Diego took a deep breath know what he was about to say would go against his pack.

"Shira." he began. "Your the most beautiful sabre I've seen in my life and I'm so happy just to be with you, and that well...I love you, more then anyone in the world and I want to be with you."

Shira nearly burst in tears, speechless. A smile then appear on her face as she walked up and began rubbed against him as she walked around him, purring. Diego began to purr himself from the feeling Shira was giving to him as she nuzzled him.

"I love you too." She responded as the two departed. "More then anything."

The two nuzzled each other purring. They were becoming closer to each other. vary, vary close.
