(I don't own ice age)
The two sabers stared at each other for a minute even though it felt like forever.
"Diego? Is that you? I thought you were dead. What happened to you? I really want to talk to him." Shira thought with shock.
"Well well well. It turned out that Silas was right, it is her. She looks shocked, probably since she realized she wasn't able to kill me. After 2 years, now I'll get my revenge on her." Diego thought.
Shira woke up from her thoughts when Sid elbowed her while smiling.
"Get ready to slice and dice boys" Squint said.
Diego knocked Squint out of the way and said, "Knock it off Squint. Wait for the captain's orders."
"Shira untie the knots" Manny said.
Shira nodded and ran to cut the vines.
"Diego go fetch" Gutt said.
"With pleasure" Diego thought. "Aye, aye captain."
Shira ran and was able to cut two vines, but before she was able to reach the third one, an orange paw grabbed the vine.
"Ah you almost made it" Diego said.
"Diego? Is that you?" Shira asked.
"Ah so you do remember me. I assume that you also remember that you tried to kill me."
"I don't wanna fight you"
Diego launched the vine and it hit Shira in the face.
She backed away a bit and covered her face. Diego pounced on her and chuckled "I can see why"
Shira then passed out.
"Welcome to the party" Shira said as she saw that Manny was waking up.
"You know Shira that orange saber kept looking at you. I think he likes you" Sid started laughing.
Shira rolled her eyes. "Why did Diego attack me? He said I tried to kill him. Oh yeah I knocked him out. Once we leave I better talk to him."
"Morning sleepy-head. Let me be the first to extend a hand of friendship." Gutt said as he reached out his foot.
"That's your foot" Manny said.
"Nothing gets by you does it?"
"What do you want"
"I bet you're feeling lost, scared, confused. Allow me to explain." Gutt turned towards his crew. "Help me out, boys."
Gutt: Here you are on a boat.
You're adrift. You're afloat.
One might even say you're stuck.
Well I don't want to gloat, but I would like to note that you're in luck.
You've been by ape that rules these waters
So forget about your wives and daughters

Gutt: Okay, okay. I'm a primate pirate pioneer and these are my brave buccaneers.
All of whom were once lost souls like you.
Crew: It's true!
Gupta: He rescued us!
Squint: He saved our butts!
Diego: "For that we owe our lives to Gutt, and assuming he doesn't kill you." Diego went up to Shira's ear and whispered "Or at least if I don't. And trust me I want to"
Crew: you will owe him too!
Gutt said "Kill them? I would never. Well, maybe not this large, very useful mammoth." He placed Manny's trunk around his shoulders.
"Hey hands off!" Manny said
Gutt: Here we are on a ship moving at quite a clip through the ever shifting ice
Diego: Come along on a trip
Flynn: That's a hint.
Squint: That's a tip.
Silas: That's good advice.
Diego and Gutt: In a world that's going under,
To survive, you must learn to plunder.
Gutt: Luckily that's my field of expertise.
Diego: He's the best!
Flynn and Squint: He's a robbing thieving,
Shira: We really should be leaving.
Raz: weapon throwing,
Manny: We gotta get going.
Squint: sloth slaying,
Sid: Wish we could be staying.

Gutt: Yeah you guessed it!
All: Master of the seas!
Shira: Oh please.
Gutt: That's me!
Crew: Tis' he!
Gutt: That's me!
Crew: Tis' he!
Gutt: It's who?
Crew: It's you!
Gutt: Just testing. I knew. It's me!
"Look, as much as I'm tempted to join a monkey... the Easter Bunny and a giant bag of pudding... I'll pass," Shira said.
"Nothing's going to stop us from getting back to my family," Manny said.
"All in good time." Gutt looked over at Diego "First mate, jettison the deadweight."
"Aye-aye, captain" Diego said, "Prepare the plank!"
"Prepare the plank!" Squint yelled.
"Preparing the plank," Flynn said, placing the plank on the edge of the ice.
Gutt untied Granny and said "After you."
"What a nice man" Granny said, "Why can't you be more like him, Sidney?"
"Granny no!" Sid yelled.
"Manny." Shira said "Get me to the vine."
"Yeah, yeah got it" Manny said.
Granny looked to see the narwhals towards the edge. "You all got some ugly fish. "
"A little more" Shira said as she was close to the vine.
Shira cut the vine and Manny pulled and got untied.
Gutt saw that the herd was trying to escape. "No! Extinct those mammals."
Gutt got a weapon and tries to attack Manny. Manny was able to block all his attacks. Gutt was angry and charged at Manny, but Manny got out of the way and Gutt hit the tree. The tree fell and hit the ship, causing it to slip in two.
Gutt saw all of his stuff going to the water and saw the herd and gave them an angry look.
The herd was able to float on a small piece of ice and saw that Gutt's crew were leaving.
Then all of a sudden Diego popped out of the water. "Hey Guys! Gutt! Flynn! Anyone there?!"
"Grab hold." Manny said as he extended his trunk.
Diego looked at them with an angry look and said "No go away!" Diego sunk into the water and rose back up. "I'd rather drown."
"Do whatever the man wants" Shira said with a smirk.
Diego sighed and was about to drown, but Manny picked him up and put him on the ice.
Diego coughed and said "I said I didn't need your help"
"Your welcome, so want to join our survey crew?" Shira said.
Diego got up. "Two sloths, a mammoth, and a saber. You guys are like the start of a bad joke."
"And we saved you, so that makes you the punchline, Softie."
Diego growled and pounced on Shira. "Don't call me Softie"
"Ok I won't" Shira pushed Diego and pinned him down. "Softie"
Granny said "If they kiss, I'm gonna puke"
"Wait what? No!" Shira said and got off of Diego.
Diego sat on the other side of the ice and just thinking to himself.
"That's just great, I couldn't find Gutt, I had to be rescued by the enemy and worst of all, I have to be with her. She left me behind. I know she's going to do it again. Probably get me more scars. Why! Why did this have to happen! It was because of her!"
Diego all of a sudden got a sting from his scars and let out a little hiss.
Shira heard him and approached him.
"Hey you okay?"
"What do you want?" Diego said.
"Hey calm down. What happened to you? You know, with the kid and everything."
"Oh well if you remember, I was helping you return the kid, probably the only person that would help you. Then all of a sudden you pounced on me and knocked me out and left me to die!"
"That's not what happened."
"Yeah I'm sure. Just leave me alone."
"Fine" Shira left.
They were on the berg for a while, Scrat was running next to Sid and Granny hit Sid on his tail and Sid let out a scream and some of the ice broke off.
"Ah Sid" Shira said.
"Oh Granny, what's wrong with our family? Why didn't they want us? Do they not care about us?" Sid asked his grandmother.
"I'm sure they didn't. They think we're screw-ups and we can't do anything right. Well we know that's wrong so don't let it get to your head." Granny responded.
"We'll never make it home on this thing" Shira sighed.
"Oh well maybe you should've thought about that before you capsized our berg, genius." Diego said.
"Yeah trying to escape"
"Wimp"
"Whiner!"
"Crybaby!"
"Land!" Manny yelled out.
"Yeah land, wait what?"
"Not him. Look." Manny pointed and it turns out that there was an island.
"Paddle!" Manny said.
All of them started padding to the land. After a few minutes they were able to reach the land.
"Oh food! Oh how I missed you!" Sid ran to a bush and started eating a yellow berry, but it turned out that there was a bee and it stung him and Sid collapsed to the ground.
"Okay snack times over" Manny said. "We gotta start building a raft."
"Wow Shira, your boyfriend must hate building rafts." Sid said.
They turned around and saw Diego running away from them.
"Go get him! He can help us get back"
"Diego!" Shira started running after him.
Diego was running and saw Shira chasing him. He launched a branch and Shira got stuck but was able to get out.
Diego launched a log to her, but she was able to slide under it.
Diego saw that she was catching up to him.
"Gotcha" Shira saw that there was no way out.
Diego saw the rock in front of him and was able to climb it.
"Whoa" Shira said and went another way.
Diego stopped running and thought he was out and before he could walk Shira pounced on him.
"Let go of me!" Diego said.
"Where do you think your going" Shira said. Shira suddenly gasped. "Whoa. Switchback cove. It's the way home. Oh no."
"What Shira?"
Shira ignored him and saw that Gutt was on the island as well.
The herd were thinking of a plan. "So what do you think?" Shira asked.
"Two words, anger management." Sid said.
"She's talking about the current. Shira's right. We found a way home."
"Well we don't exactly have a ship here" Shira pointed out.
"Sure we do," Manny said, "It's right there." He pointed his trunk down at Gutt's ship.
"You want to steal a ship from pirates. Flawless plan" Diego said sarcastically in a tree prison.
"Our prisoner is right. We can't just walk in and take it." Shira said.
"Does anyone else hear that?" Sid asked.
Manny, Shira, and Sid turned around and saw a bunch of hyraxes hiding near the tree.
"I guess Gutt didn't take all of them" Manny said.
They were able to convince them to join them in taking Gutt's ship so they can free all of the other hyraxes. They decided to camp at a spot and decide on a plan at night.
