Hey guys! Wow, it's been a while. Sorry that I haven't posted in a while. My laptop stopped working and I didn't have any way of posting the chapters, but I'm back and ready to start posting chapters again.

Anyway please review and favorite and enjoy.

(I don't own ice age)

Manny was reviewing the plan with Sid, Granny, Shira, and the hyraxes. "Okay, we all remember the plan right? Shira?"

"I'll go rescue their friends," Shira responded.

"Sid and Granny?"

"We'll go untie the vines on the ship sir!" Sid saluted.

"Please don't do that. And remember to hold on to the vines till we're ready. We're counting on you Sid"

"Yes sir" Sid saluted again.

"Don't worry, this will be a lot easier since we don't have to watch Diego now," Granny pointed out.

They all looked at the edge and saw that Diego was running to the ship.

"We have to move," Manny said.

Diego ran and went to Gutt's ship to warn them.

"Captain!" Diego called him.

"Diego! I was beginning to worry about you"

"Gutt the mammoth washed up with me-"

Gutt interrupted him. "Did you get to sink your teeth into him and make him beg for mercy?"

"No, the saber stopped me" Diego lowered his head, ashamed.

Gutt pinned Diego to the wall and said "You're a failure, all I ask you to do is take out one simple mammoth and you can't do that. You will take the saber down or die trying." Gutt put out his finger and moved Diego's head up.

"Yes Captain"

Gutt let him go. "Good, Squint you are now first mate"

Squint of course was excited "You hear that? You all have to listen to what I say"

Diego still tried to warn the captain. "Captain the mammoth is going-"

Diego was interrupted when there was a horn. They all saw that a hyrax was blowing a shell and nothing happened. The hyrax then brought out a bigger shell and blew into that one.

Then a bunch of other hyraxes ran up to them. Gutt and his crew started to run to them. They were almost to the hyraxes when more came in and picked the other hyraxes. Then there was a shadow of a mammoth and Squint went up to it and tried to kill it, but then it turned out it was a fake. "It was a diversion," Gutt said.

"They bought it," Shira said.

Sid started to untie the vines and Shira opened the cages of hyraxes. They all ran and hugged her everywhere. "Ok guys that's not really necessary. I love you too."

Shira saw that Sid was going to eat a berry and called out "Sid don't eat that! That's a lotus berry it will paralyze you!"

"Oh please, I know my berries" Sid ate it and swallowed it and fell down like a blob.

Manny went up to him and picked Sid up and saw that the ship was leaving. They started running to it and eventually, they made it. All that was left was Shira.

"Come on Shira!" Manny called her.

Shira started running to the ship, but before she could jump on the ship Diego pounced on her. Manny grabbed a log and tried to hold the ship.

"Why are you doing this?" Shira asked him.

"You don't understand. I don't have a choice." Diego said.

"You don't have to live like this Diego. You can come with us nothing bad will happen to you"

Shira got up and looked at him. "Come with us. Come with me, I'm sorry for what you experienced, but we can move on from the past together" Shira smiled.

Diego nodded and they started running, but Diego saw that Gutt was approaching them so he turned the corner while Shira jumped onto the ship.

"What are you doing?" Shira asked Diego.

"I've got your back" Diego pushed ice in front of Gutt's way and he slipped and fell into the ocean.

Diego saw that the ship was sailing away, he looked at Shira and smiled, while Shira looked sad at him.

After the ship sailed away, Gutt made a new ship by pushing ice into the ocean. They all climbed aboard and Diego went up to the captain. "Captain I can explain"

Gutt threw Diego to the side and said "When this is over I'm getting a sabers fur on my wall and I don't care whose"

Diego looked down and realized that he has been in this situation before. "History is repeating itself," he thought.

Diego realized that he was wrong about something "I was wrong, Shira wasn't the person who gave me scars, it was Soto. I was the one who couldn't escape Soto. It wasn't her fault that I got scars, it was mine. When I see her again I'm going to talk to her and ask for forgiveness for blaming it on her and maybe tell her how I feel, how I always felt about her."

Diego sat at the corner of the ship.
