Prikle1 Acs, well actually, I might end it at chapter 27 or something else cause I still have more ideas to complete. And yes, this is long as I thought but I'll try to finish it. And still, I'm trying get some ideas for the mystery of the robots and everything to make things sense. Oh, if you didn't watch Ice Age 3 then you just follow through, I can explain to you or just rent the movie.

The Jokerman,!, ...

Xion the Author, right now I'm keep on writing Xion69 (funny XD). Well, glad you like the last chapter. I did work hard to get the things right.

KaylaDestroyer, this might be a good one.

Pokemonsora01, thanks for liking my story. Yes, I know I didn't included Scrat cause I don't know... Sorry anyway.

Chapter 21: Fate of the Unknown

Following the stray hyena in front of them, the herd strolled to the deep forest. Gabor sniffed the scent of the three humans, a sloth, and two possums. The herd were quiet and didn't talk for once. The only thing they can here is leaves crumpling on the ground with a step. Manny stared the hyena with fire in his eyes. His mouth was down and grinded his teeth. Ellie looked at him, looking at his enraged eyes just wanting to hurt someone.

"Manny are you okay?" she asked.

Manny was in silence but then looked at her "no...".

"Then what is the problem?"

"Ellie, I can't stand that hyena over there; I don't trust him" Manny whispered.

"Come on Manny, you're being this way when we first met Kyle" Ellie said.

"Well, it doesn't matter, I still don't trust that guy" Manny was frustrated.

Ellie backed off and became quiet with Peaches by her side. Talon and Amy looked away from each to distance both mad at each other which no one doesn't know their arguement was. Diego walked silently and didn't talk to Manny or anyone. The hyena continuously walked into the forest as it stop at this rock wall covering their path.

"We are here..." he said in a low tone.

"We are?" Manny questioned.

The hyena nodded and sniffed as if he was a dog. Everyone else looked around for clues or other things to find the others where they left. Diego looked around and spotted at cave that is which opened.

"Hey you guys!" Diego yelled out to everyone.

"Maybe this is where they headed" Diego pointed to a dark, moist rocky cave.

Talon made a sniff to get a scent and was positive, that the others went to the cave. As the herd entered, the who stayed behind was Gabor. Manny saw him, standing behind the cave. The hyena made a sinister smile and his eyes stared at them.

"Aren't you coming?" Manny asked, and knew something is going wrong.

Gabor walked backed into the forest where's light. "Sorry, but I can't leave my life in there" he smiled.

"What!" Manny was shocked.

The hyena grabbed a vine tangled to loose blouders atop of him. Manny and the others ran towards him, but Gabor pulled the vine and blouders fell the enterance. The herd stayed behind, Manny ran to the wall ramming the rocks to move but it was too strong.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! You herd can't come out 'the Cave of the Behemoth Creatures of Death'!" Gabor shouted to the herd.

"Once we get out! I'm gonna rip your head of and...and...and..." Manny was enrage.

"And what?" Gabor asked.

"I'm going to..." Manny became quiet.

"Silly mammoth! Ha ,ha, ha, ha, ha, ha" he laughed and left.

"So, what does... it say... on the map?" Sid gasped for air.

"Well, it says that 4 more days to get the portal opening" Sara sat on the grassy land.

"Ahhhhhhh! It's going to kill me just to walk for four days!" Justin whined and rubbed his legs.

"Then we just take a break for half-an-hour" Kyle suggested.

"Please Sara! I'm begging you, I don't want to walk anymore!" Sid grabbed Sara by the legs.

"Fine but we walk again when our break is over" Sara said.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Sid kissed her shoes.

"Okay" she felt awkward.

"Hey where's Crash and Eddie?" Justin asked.

"I heard that they are at the berry bushes" Kyle said.

"Hey I want to try some of those berries" Justin rubbed his stomach, as a growl was heard.

"Okay, I'll show you" Kyle walked into the deep forest, Justin followed.

Kyle and Justin walked and saw blue striped berries in front of them.

"Hey, where are they?" Kyle looked around.

"Hey over there!" Justin pointed to a bush that is near a large cave, with two animals looking dead.

"Hey! It's Crash and Eddie?" Kyle was shocked.

As they run to them, Kyle and Justin try to woke them up but couldn't.

"Are they... dead?" Justin asked.

"No, their heart is beating" Kyle said, looking at the berries "I'm guessing the berries made them sleep".

As Kyle stopped talking, the two heard a stomp.

"What was that?" Justin was freaking out.

"It came from the cave..." Kyle walked closer to the cave until a roar scared the two of them.

A huge triceratop, came out looking at the humans. As it looked at them, Kyle grabbed Crash and Justin grabbed Eddie and ran away like a speed of light. The triceratops chased them!

"I know what this dinosaur was doing! It's a trap so that other animals get into a deep sleep and that thing eats it!" Kyle yelled out to Justin.

"And I thought triceratops are plant eaters!" Justin exclamed.

"I know me too!" Kyle agreed.

They ran and headed where's Sara and Sid at(not smart).

"Run Sara! Run!" Kyle shouted, holding Crash with his arm.

"What why?" Sara was confused.

When she saw the reason why, she ran with Sid.

"What did you guys do!" Sara exclaimed.

"It was a trap!" Kyle shouted.

An one-eye animal swinging vine to vine, launched another vine rapping the triceratop's neck.

"Ahhh! We are going to die!" Justin shouted, slowing down.

"Come on Justin, catch up!" Kyle looked back at him.

The one-eye animal pulled the vine around the dinosaur's neck, which made it slow down. Kyle, Sara, Justin, and Sid began to slow down and saw the triceratops running and jumping around like a bull. Then the one-eyed animal flied in air and the vine what was holding tied the triceratops legs. The dinosaur falls and rests. The animal jumps off the tree and grabs it's dagger from the ground.

"No way! It's! It's!" Sid remembered this one-eye animal.

"Buck" it said.

"Short for Buckminster" it said.

"You're awesome, man! You're actually better than my buddy over here" Justin teased.

Kyle looked at him mad.

"Buck, it's me, you know!" Sid tried to get his attention.

"The sloppy-green thing" Buck answered.

"Not anymore" Sid replied.

Buck smelled the sloth and was surprised, how the smell is fresh.

"Amazing, what's" Buck said but Kyle stopped.

"Old Spice, sweat defence" Kyle answered.

"So, what are you suppose to be?" Sara asked.

"I'm a weasel" he repiled.

"Oh"

"What are you humans, sloth, and the two possums who are fans of me doing here?" Buck asked.

"Well..." Kyle said.

"Bah, bah, bah, let the girl talk first" Buck said.

Kyle began to get furious.

"We are going home because a portal is going to open, can you take us there" Sara pointed the area where the portal is opening.

"Sure, but I got some rules first" Buck said.

"This is going to good" Kyle said in a low tone.

"Rule number one; Listen to Buck, number 2; stay in the middle of the path, number 3; who ever has gas stays in the back" Buck said.

Justin walked back with Crash and Eddie.

"Okay! Off we go" Buck walked the trail.

"This is sweet..." Kyle said it in a dark tone.

Finally! I finished this chapter. Man! It took me forever to finish it! Sorry about that. To be honest with you guys, I'm losing interest... Yeah, I know, and I bet you want me to complete the story. Hopefully I finish it or pray.

To be continued... next week Saturday morning at 9:00 wait the next episode of Ice Age with Kyle 2.
