Right now, on the hyrax island, the whole herd and Buck, was enjoying the relaxing, warm day. Ellie with Manny eating fruit having a nice conversation. Crash and Eddie playing a game of "tennis" using makeshift rackets out of sticks and spider webs, with a pebble as the tennis ball. A little distance away from the clearing you'll find one female silver-grey, black striped Sabre, laying across the back of a golden-orange male Sabre, with her turquoise eyes closed. Said male Sabre, Diego, also had his eyes closed with his head resting on his paws. The two were taking an evening nap, enjoying the warmth of the sun. Back in the clearing, near the rest of the herd, Peaches and Julien were watching the possums play their tennis game. Over head, not so high above, on a tree branch, Buck was looking off in the distance as if in deep thought, most likely thinking about the dinosaur world, where every turn was an adventure, especially with Rudy. Buck isn't used to being above ground, in the outside world of ice. He was considering going back but he didn't want to leave the herd. They were his friends, family, he liked the company, yet he still had to get use to it. There was one other mammal thinking of adventure and it happened to be Sid the Sloth. Luckily for both of these adventure seekers, it wasn't too far ahead of them. Sid felt as though there was nothing left to do anymore, like life was now boring. As if Dinosaurs, Floods, Pirates, humans, and asteroids weren't enough. Without the excitement of action, Sid became restless with the stillness in the air. Stuck doing the same every day nothing. He just wanted something to happened, anything! Sid almost missed Gutt and his pirate crew at this point. He then thought of something, something to get the herd moving and maybe meet new animals. It's not that he was tired of the herd, of course not, it's just that it seems as though the herd is getting tired. Not considering Manny's growing age or that at the very moment Shira and Diego were actually sleeping.

" Granny I think the herd should go out more."

" What are you talking about Sidney, we're already outside?!"

" No Granny, I meant as in going somewhere other than here, like a trip for adventure." Sid said hoping Granny would understand

" WHAT! Why would we wanna leave, that's too much walking?" Granny screamed while looking at Sid like he was crazy.

Hearing this Brooke chimes in telling Sid what she thought. "Oh Sid, that's a wonderful idea! But what kind of adventure?" Brooke asked.

" You know something like...like." Sid thought on this for a second, he didn't really know. Brooke was also thinking with him. Then they got it.

" A road trip!!" They said at the same time. Quit loud actually, Buck also heard this.

" Road trip, eh?" Buck said intrigued

"Oh, that would be a lovely experience for the herd!" Brooke exclaimed excitedly.

" Manny, Manny, oh Manny!"

" What is it Sid? Should I be worried?" Manny asked knowing Sid has come up with something again. Since he was bored he decide to pay mind to Sid for once.

" The herd should have a road trip!" Sid said excitedly thinking this was one of his good ideas.

" A road trip? Actually that doesn't sound too bad, it could be fun." Ellie said

" Wh- really? You think that's a good idea, I mean where would we even go? We know this entire island." Manny said not really into the idea.

" I'm sure we haven't seen all of the island, and we can meet new animals, make some more friends. Oh come on Manny." Ellie said trying to persuade her stubborn husband.

"Uh...I don't know..."

" Come on Manny, what's the worst that can happen?" Asked Crash.

" Where did you come from, weren't you and Eddie playing or something?" Manny asked.

"Well we were until Crash cheated!" Eddie said answering Manny's question.

" No you cheated!"

"No you did!"

" You did!"

" No you"

" NO-

" Alright! Alright! We get it! Who else is with the road trip idea?" Manny said. Ellie, Brooke, Sid, and the possums all agreed to go.

" Okay...what about you Peaches?" Peaches and Julien had been there when the possums arrived.

" That sounds like fun, and we can see some new places, it's kinda getting boring around here." Said Peaches.

" Yeah that sounds awesome!" Julien said excitedly.

" Well it seems like we all- wait, where's Diego and Shira?" Manny asked realizing everyone wasn't there

" I last saw them near the entrance of the cave, I think they are napping." Sid said

" Cat nap!" Eddie snickered

" Good one Eddie!" crash laughed

" Someone should wake them up..." Everyone looked at one another until they found their victim. "...Sid go wake them up." Manny said.

" WHAT!! Why me! They'll kill me!" Sid cried obviously worried for his safety.

" Oh, you'll be fine Sid...right Manny?" Ellie said with a hint of nervousness.

"Of course you will." Manny said with an unconvincing smile. Everyone looked at Sid with the same smile. No one wanted to bother the two Sabres out of their sleep.

" Ah come on Sid, don't be a scaredy-cat." Granny said, making the possums laugh. Granny pushed Sid with her cane to make him move forward.

" Aww" Sid whined. He made it from the clearing to the entrance of the cave, seeing two sleeping, not so little cats, with anything but small teeth. Sid turned around to see the herd motioning him to go on.

"Ok Sid, you got this, you got this, all you got to do is wake them up...easy." Sid thought while tip toeing towards the Sabres. Sid got close enough to poke Diego in the side, only for it to not do anything. He then went over to Shira's side, the safer approach he thought. He poked her as well, but to no avail. Being out of ideas and well not thinking...at all, he apologized to Diego in advance. Before Manny or anyone else could stop him, Sid took Diego's short tail, put it to his mouth and bit down.

" Sid! No!" Manny yelled, but too late. Hazel-green eyes snapped open, followed by a roar that would make anyone to stop and look, or in Sid's case, run. Startled awake, Shira leaped to her paws, panting, looking around to recognize her surroundings. Upon seeing the herd, she calmed down slightly, she only knew that the roar had come from Diego. On the other hand (or paw) Diego was not to quick to calm down. Wipping around on his paws, looking to his left with peircing eyes, he found his target.

" Run, Sloth" Diego snarled showing his teeth as a reminder, emitting a deep, low, growl.

" C-calm d-down Diego, I-I was- AAAAHH ahhh!!! Wait, WAIT! I'm SORRY! Please!" *Shreiking* Sid was running away from Diego, but only to be caught seconds later. Diego returned to the herd holding him by the neck between his teeth, obviously not hurting the Sloth.

" Oh, please, please don't kill me! I said I'm sorry!!" Sid said pleading and whining, with his hands clasped together.

" Diego..." Manny said cautiously, " put the sloth down."

From the way Diego stood as still as a statue not moving to let go of Sid, Manny thought they were gonna have to pry Sid from the jaws of death... somehow. Diego eventually rolled his eyes and dropped Sid on the ground, his scent burned his sensitive nose anyways.

" Phew, I thought I was a goner." Sid said relieved, while rubbing his neck still as though he were in Diego's jaws...again.

" I suggest you NEVER do that ever again or you won't get off so easy." Diego said right by Sid's ear while walking away. Sending a shiver down Sid's spine.

" Well I guess that's one way to wake up." Shira said while stretching.

" That's not how we wanted you to wake up, but Sid...will be Sid." Manny apologetically said with a sigh.

" So, what's the plan for today, other than sitting around and doing nothing, again." Shira said.

" We're going on a road trip!" Crash and Eddie said

" A road trip? Where are we going?" She asked.

" Well...uh, we don't know, we're just gonna walk until we see something interesting I guess." Manny said. Diego looked at Manny confused.

" So what's the point of this exactly?" Diego asked.

" We need to find a new adventure, we're losing our touch, the herd is getting boring!" Sid said.

" Yes! Mammals, we need to find a new adventure, we need to explore, we've been sitting on our bums for too long!" Buck spoke up.

" Uh huh." Diego said a little skeptical, although he did want some action here and there.

" I guess so, I mean I'd rather get moving then sitting here." Shira said still rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. That was a really good nap, only for it to be interrupted terribly.

" Precisely!" Buck shouted " So!? What about you mammoth?" Buck asked Manny. Everyone looks at him expectedly, especially Sid.

"Fine, but we leave in the morning after breakfast."

"Yay!!" Sid, Brooke, Peaches, Julien, and the possums exclaimed.

" Hey! What's all the screaming about!" Granny yelled.

" Uh, are we really bringing Granny with us?" Diego whispered to Manny.

" Uh.." Manny looked at Granny, realizing that she was definitely a handfull. "Well we could stop by Geotopia on the way and she could stay there until we get back", Manny replied."Sid is that ok?" He asked the Sloth who was in earshot.

" Oh yeah, she'll be fine over there." He said

" Great I get to go see hunky bunny!" Granny said " Sidney! Go find my teeth for me!"

" Ok, come on Granny." Sid said leading Granny to find her teeth.

" Alright then, so everyone be ready in the morning", said Buck, " and be ready... for an adventure." He said looking deep into the herd, even with his one eye. Who knows, maybe they'll find many friends or...enemies. The possums looked at him in admiration. Including Julien.

" Awesome" all three of them said almost above a whisper.
