Title: Captain Gutt's Rave Night

Premise: Ice Age. One night a week, Captain Gutt and his crew kick back and have some fun and party! Not a songfic. Featuring Trixie and Gilda from MLP: FIM.

Songs used & Disclaimer: Jennifer Lopez - "On The Floor" (man, this one's got a lot of views!), The Wanted - "Sun Goes Down" and "Chasing the Sun". I do not own any of these songs or characters. I do not profit from this story.

Personal Notes: I was just thinking. Jennifer Lopez voiced Shira in Ice Age 4. Jennifer Lopez sang this song: "On The Floor", which is pretty catchy. And so... well, add two and two.

Trixie and Gilda are in this because I was just imagining what it would be like if they joined Captain Gutt's crew in a crossover story.


Another calm, quiet day at sea on Captain Gutt's ship. All the crew was doing their usual jobs and chores on deck. Sun was setting.

Trixie and Gilda were helping Raz sharpen her weapons, and having a little chat.

"Seriously," Trixie asked. "When is our season 3 going to start? OR when are we going to find out when it starts?"

"Don't know," Gilda simply shrugged. "I just hope they're not having any kinds of technical difficulties. I'd hate for anything bad to happen at that studio, and our show gets delayed or cancelled. But... I don't think that will happen."

"And I hope when the season starts, we get to return at some point. Just listen to how much the fans love THE GREAT AND POWERFUL TRIXIE!"

"Yeah, yeah. I heard it all before!" Gilda grunted.

"Well, I wonder when Ice Age 5 will come out!" Raz said. "I know I wont return, but still, I'm just thinkin'."

"I know I'm excited about it!" Shira announced as she walked by. "I wonder if Diego and I will have any cubs! Man, he's just so hot!"

"Probably," Squint replied. He walked by chewing an apple. "All the fans wanna see it. And I bet Sid's gonna somehow find a chick too!"

"What I wonder is how long they're going to milk the franchise before they run it totally into the ground," Gupta called down from the crow's nest. "I mean, what could they possibly do next?"

"Hey, come on now," Flynn called over. "Continental Drift wasn't THAT bad!"

"Alright everyone!" Captain Gutt shouted as he came out of his quarters below deck. "Sun's gone down, stars comin' out! And it's that night of the week again!"

The pirates all looked over, dropping what they were doing, smiles on their faces.

"That's right!" Gutt slid over and pulled a lever. "It's rave night!"

All the pirates cheered as a dance pad flipped up from the middle of the deck floor. Lights shot out from the railing. The tiles on the floor started flashing, as did the lights.

"Shira! Trixie!" Gutt ordered! "Play us on!"

"Aye-Aye, captain!" Shira saluted.

Trixie pulled up Vinyl Scratch in front of a DJ booth, and she started playing the dance music.

Shira started sining along, since the lyrics were taken out for her own fun. She liked singing some of the songs they had on this night.

Don't stop, keep it moving, put your drinks up!

If you go hard you gotta get on the floor,

If you're a party freak then step on the floor,

If you're an animal then tear up the floor!

The song continued on as the crew took to the dance floor to shake it.

(If you've seen the credits of Continential Drift, or this one music video of The Wanted where they sang "Chasing the Sun" for the movie, you know how most of the crew dances. They dance the same way on this night. If you haven't seen either, look one up. It's kinda funny to watch them dance. I especially like Captain Gutt's dance! And Raz's, Flynn's, and Squint's, and Shira's.)

Trixie and Gilda joined in, break dancing, shaking their flanks, swaying along, just going nuts and being silly. As long as they were moving, it was okay.

Dance the night away,

Live your life and stay along the floor!

"You know," Trixie murmured to Gilda, loud so they could hear each other over the noise. "We gotta go find some more colts and boy griffons. I haven't done anything fun with any boys in a long time!"

"Me neither! No one's screwed me in a long time!"

"I'd screw you, Gilda," Silas smiled.

"Told ya, seagull," She snapped back. "Not interested!"

Laaa, la la la la,

La la la la la la la la la,

Tonight we gonna be it on the floor!

Soon enough, Shira's song ended, and the next one started.

We've only just begun,

Hypnotized by drums,

Until forever comes,

You'll find us chasing the sun!

With the first song over, she came out to dance with the rest of the crew, prancing around with them. Raz high-fived her as she came up to her.

At one point, Flynn started doing the worm. Each time he hit the deck, the entire ship shook and tilted. The rest of the crew did not mind though, and just went along with it. It made the rave that much more fun!

Done with that, and now I am off to my school club fair.
