White Hunter: This must be a real shocker for Ravi and Zari after coming such a long way. After coming such a long way the group couldn't believe what they were seeing as they stared at the two grave stones before them. The two siblings instantly broke down as they fell to the ground and began to cry over the loss of their parents and tribe members. Manny comforted Zari as he wrapped his trunk around the older sibling, while Shira and Diego comforted Ravi. The group stayed standing near the grave stones as they gave their respects to Zari and Ravi's parents. After giving their respects the group decided to head back to where they had left the icebergs with Manny carry Zari on his back while Diego carried Ravi on his back as they began to make the long journey back to where they had come from. The group soon made camp in a cave for the night while the siblings sat quietly among the group. Zari was the first to speak after a while as she wondered out loud to herself on what she and her brother were going to do now. After hearing that question the herd offered the kids to come back and live with them on their island. Surprised by this offer the siblings asked if it was really okay for them to live with the herd, and Manny replied in kind that they would really love for the kids to come back with them, because, after all, they were no ordinary herd. Hope and happiness raised up within the two siblings hearts as they eagerly accepted the herd's offer, while Granny said that she always wanted grandchildren. The herd also invited the three bird brothers to join their group, which they eagerly accepted as well with Duke having to be convinced by Granny as she bopped him on the head. After the group went to sleep, Manny, Diego, and Sid soon dreamed about Roshan and his wife as they asked the animals to take care of their children and the three promised that they would raise and protect Zari and Ravi like they were their own. I hope this helps.

Thanks to White Hunter with another brilliant idea! Anyway here's the next chapter, so enjoy!


Ellie and the others soon joined their friends and family when they discovered the tombstones. Their eyes were filled with shock and terror and their jaws dropped. They were horrified to see the children's parents raved before their eyes which made them feel very sorrowful for them both. As they were watching, Zari and Ravi said nothing as they kept total silence to themselves. Their eyes were filled with sadness as they didn't move a muscle.

Manny slowly reached his trunk out and gently tapped Zari on the shoulder. "Zari…"

Zari slowly turned around and faced him with a small smile. "We've traveled so far…"

Manny felt a little unsure that Zari was alright or not. "…Zari"

"…and they're gone" Zari finished

Manny slowly rested it on Zari's shoulder. "Are you okay, kid?"

"Yeah…yeah I'm okay" Zari lied seeing that Manny knew she wasn't alright

Sid soon sighed and swiped the sweat off his forehead. "Phew! For a second I thought you were going to burst into tears…"

(SNIFFLES)

(SOBBING)

Zari's smile faded into heartbreak. Her face began to pout up and tears started swelling in her eyes as she covered her face with her hands. She soon broke down and landed on the floor and began crying letting all her emotions out. Zari's tears soon started pouring down her face as they streamed over her hands and dripped right on the ground as she sobbed. Ravi soon fell to his knees and he rested his head on his father's stone, then he wrapped his arms around his father and mothers tombstones, before he started sobbing with grief.

(SNIFFLES)

(SOBBING)

Zari and Ravi were sorrowing for the loss of their mother and father seeing that were gone forever along with the rest of the people they cared about too. When Manny, Sid, and Diego saw this they were heartbroken and filled with anguish.

Manny and Diego furiously turned and yelled. "SID!"

Sid raised his hands up in confusion. "What? I was just asking"

Manny and Diego slapped Sid on the back of the head.

(SLAP)

"OW" cried Sid with pain

Zari continued sobbing with grief as she looked back at her parent's graves and she sobbed even more.

(SOBBING)

Manny stepped forward and he took out his trunk and he gently wrapped it around Zari forming it into a hug. Zari accepted as she grasped it tight and continued to sob. Manny felt tearful and he closed his eyes.

As Ravi continued sobbing he sat flat on his bottom and continued crying. Just then Diego and Shira walked over to comfort him. Shira laid herself down on her tummy and she rested her head on the boy's lap and began purring. Ravi soon wrapped his arms around Shira's neck and he ducked his face into the saberess's fur as he continued to sob. Diego then rested his neck on Ravi's head and began purring. The two sabers tearfully closed their eyes.

Ellie, Crash, Eddie, Peaches, Louis, and Granny soon lowered their heads low in anguish. Duke, Thorn, and Chaos, however, were holding onto each other as they cried out tears.


This was an absolute tragedy for Zari and Ravi. They had no family, no friends, no one left in the world to love. As of the next hour, the entire herd started laying flowers on top of the kid's parent's graves showing their absolute respect. As the animals were done, Zari and Ravi were the last to rest their flowers.

The two knelt down and they slowly rested their flowers on top of the rest of their friends.

"Goodbye…mom and dad" Zari replied tearfully

Ravi sniffled and more tears come out. "Mommy…Daddy…I'll miss you"

The two stood back up and they both embraced each other with a hug. Manny and the others watched sadly feeling their sorrows go into anguish. Once that was done, Zari and Ravi held each other's hand and began walking away leaving their parents to rest.

Manny soon gently wrapped his trunk around Zari's waist and placed her on his back. Zari then rested her back on Manny's and she closed her eyes.

Then Ravi walked over to Diego and he hopped on his back and he rested his tummy on him and he closed his eyes.


The whole herd soon walked under the two glaciers leaving Glacier Pass and on the long journey back home. As the hours went by, everyone stayed in absolute silence. Not a word to be said. Zari just gazed into the open skies while Ravi drifted into a deep sleep as he let one tear loose from his eye.

They walked all through daylight till sunset till it was already dark. Luckily, they managed to find an open cave to sleep for the night. Inside, Sid made a campfire as the entire herd began talking in conversation. Zari and Ravi, however, still stayed completely quiet as they both rested their heads on each other.

"Poor kids" said Ellie sadly. "I'm so sorry for them both"

"Yeah, I know just how they feel not having a family anymore" said Sid feeling the same way

"We all feel sorry for them Sid" Shira told him

"Yeah but what's going to happen to them now?" Diego pointed out

Manny looked away from his family before he spoke out to the kids. "Zari, Ravi?"

Zari and Ravi noticed and their turned to his attention.

"Are you guys okay?" Manny asked with concern

Zari looked down for a moment before she finally spoke again. "They're gone…they're all gone…what are we supposed to do now?"

Manny looked down and closed his eyes. But then suddenly an idea flashed into his mind which brightened things up.

"You know something" Manny blurted out. "I was just thinking and…and maybe…why don't you live with us"

Zari and Ravi looked surprisingly at Manny. "WHAT?"

Sid, Diego, and Shira soon did also the same thing. "WHAT?"

Ellie turned to Manny with an astonishing look on her face. "Oh Manny that's a wonderful idea"

Zari got off her seat and got to her feet. "Wait, wait, hang on, whoa, whoa, wait a minute? You want us…to live…with you?"

Ravi stood off his seat and spoke. "All of you?"

"Of course" Manny answered happily. "You two can be part of our herd"

"It'll be fun" Peaches assured her. "Plus, you wouldn't have to worry about anything"

Zari and Ravi looked at each other for a moment before they both went into conference.

Ravi was jumping up and down excitedly. "We should Zari! This could change our lives!"

"I know, I know but I'm not sure if it's a good idea" said Zari feeling unaware of the offer

"Are you kidding?" asked Sid calling out. "Being part of the herd is like…the best thing that could ever change your lives!"

"He's got a point there you two" Diego confirmed him. "You'd be safe with us. We take care of each other"

"Really?" said Zari feeling convinced. "You…you would do that for us?"

"After everything we've put you all through?" Ravi asked

"And besides I'm not sure if animals like to see a herd with two humans in the group" Zari confirmed them

Manny walked over and he rested his trunk under Zari's chin and he tilted her head up. "Look I know this may seem hard for you both…but I just want you to know that I…that I…" he soon stopped and closed his eyes

Zari smiled and rested his hand on Manny's trunk. "What?"

Manny took a really deep breath and sighed. "I have feelings for both of you…okay, I care about both of you…and…and I love you…I MEAN IT! I LOVE YOU, I REALLY LOVE YOU BOTH!"

Zari and Ravi smiled feeling grateful.

Manny smiled back. "But the best part is that we're no ordinary herd at all"

"Really?" Ravi asked curiously. "Cause I always thought you were like all the rest. Besides I don't know if we can fit up there"

"So?" Diego confirmed him. "Look at us do we look like a normal herd to you?"

Everyone soon showed smiles, except for Sid. Manny then slapped Sid on the back of the head.

(SLAP)

"OW" cried Sid before he was smiling along with the rest of the herd

Zari and Ravi's faces were filled with hope and happiness as they both felt happy that the herd offered the two to live with them and the rest of the herd back on the island.


Manny then happily turned to Duke, Thorn, and Chaos. "How about it you chumps, do you want to be part of our herd?"

"Do we want to be part of the herd?" said Duke excitedly

"Do we want to be part of the herd?" asked Thorn excitedly

"Do we?" asked Chaos in confusion

Duke and Thorn turned to Chaos furiously before Granny started whacking Duke on the head with her stick.

(BOP)

(BOP)

(BOP)

(BOP)

"Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh!" cried Duke as he yelped in pain

"YUK, YUK, YUK, YUK, YUK" Chaos laughed hysterically before Duke stomped on his claw

(STOMP)

"Oh, Oh, Oh!" cried Chaos with pain. "We do!"

As the night was young, everyone was soon asleep dreaming happily. Suddenly Manny, Sid, and Diego were visioning of themselves inside their dreams together…


(Inside the minds)

Manny, Sid, and Diego discovered themselves walking around an open field

"Hey Manny what are you doing here?" Sid asked

"I don't know, but what are you doing here Diego?" Manny asked Diego

"I would ask you guys the same question" said Diego

Soon the three heard laughing echoing around them. The three stayed close next to each other.

"What was that?" Manny asked

"I don't know but it's coming up ahead!" Sid pointed out

Two figures were slowly walking towards them. The three studied them seeing it was a male and a female when they saw them walking towards them. As they got closer, Manny noticed that the male looked oddly familiar. The male and the female gave the three smiles.

"Who are you?" Manny asked demandingly

The male chuckled and stepped forward. "Don't you guys recognize me?"

The three studied the male for a moment before their eyes were filled with surprise when they realized it was Roshan a.k.a Pinky.

"It can't be?" said Manny surprisingly

Roshan chuckled and he placed his hand over his eyes and played the peek-a-boo game Diego had taught him years ago.

Manny smiled joyously. "It is its Pinky!"

"PINKY!" Manny, Sid, and Diego cheered joyously

The animals and Roshan formed a big reunion hug while his wife Nida giggled. Soon as the hugging stopped, they spread part.

"Wow, Pinky it's great to see you again!" said Sid joyously

"Yeah I have to say you turned out great!" said Manny joyously recognizing Roshan slim but body-build body.

"Yeah I get noticed all the time" said Roshan always getting rumors about his workouts

"And I thought not all humans couldn't talk?" said Diego

Roshan knelt down and patted Diego on the head. "Yeah well you thought wrong pussy cat"

Nida soon walked over and rested her chin on her husband's shoulder. "You've all been very brave"

"Why are you here?" Manny asked. "Both of you?"

Roshan and Nida turned to each other and smiled before turning back to them.

"We never left" Nida answered

"We wanted to make sure we'd say our final goodbyes" Roshan pointed out

"WHAT, BUT WHY?" Sid asked pouting

"Sid, our children are on their own now and they need someone to look after them" Roshan affirmed him

"Oh really I wonder who that is?" asked Sid

Diego frowned furiously before he slapped him on the back of the head again.

(SLAP)

"OW" cried Sid

"He means us you idiot!" Diego confirmed him sternly

Sid rubbed his head and frowned. "Say what's the idea, I bet he wouldn't do that! Would you?"

"Sure…" Roshan answered in reply and he slapped Sid on the back of the head.

(SLAP)

"OW" cried Sid. "He did!"

"Guys listen to me!" said Roshan demandingly. "I know our kids are going to be lost without our guidance so I need you guys to stay by their side no matter what. Okay?"

"Sure" Manny, Sid, and Diego happily responded

"You promise me?" Roshan asked

Manny, Sid, and Diego turned and the three nodded. "We promise" they answered

Roshan smiled and Nida spoke out. "You three are so special. Never forget that"

"So what happens now?" Sid asked

"Now I think it's time for us to go" said Roshan. "It was great seeing you again for the final time"

"Wait!" Manny called out making Roshan and Nida turn around one last time. "Will we ever see you again?"

Roshan smirked. "Manny. I'll always see you…in your dreams of course"

"Farewell you three and thanks again" Nida called

As Roshan and Nida started making their journey, Manny, Sid, and Diego sadly but happily watched as their friend disappeared into the distance. Sid sniffed up a tear.

"He never forgot about us" said Sid remembering his promise to Pinky

"Yeah…and we sure won't forget about him" said Manny happily

"Who knew kids grow up so fast, you know?" said Diego happily.

Manny, Sid, and Diego began laughing before their dreams fading into a white flash.
