Hey guys while I was making the Present is Painful I realized that I forgot to add another scene from the first movie which was the cave scene. So here you guys go.

Also this takes place after chapter 3 on the Past is Painful

(I don't own ice age)

Diego and Shira got up at the same time and continued their journey. Diego kept thinking about what he said and was still deciding if he should let Soto mate with Shira or not.

Diego kept staring at her for some reason. "Wow she is really pretty. And her fur is different from what I've seen, but it only makes her seem more pretty. I haven't seen another female saber in a while, but at least I met a beautiful one. What am I thinking? I can't think about having a relationship with her right now. I need to think about what I should do."

After a while Diego was ahead of the baby and Shira and saw that the humans were closer than he thought. He looked around and saw that there was a cave nearby and that could also be a shortcut to be in front of the humans.

He saw Shira approaching and walked up to her. "Hey great news I found a shortcut"

Shira looked confused. "Shortcut? What do you mean"

"I mean faster than the long way around"

Shira rolled her eyes. "I know what a shortcut is"

"Look we can either go through the shortcut and beat the humans or we go the long way and miss them"

"In there? Are you even sure that's safe?"

"I'm sure we'll be fine, what's the worst that can happen?"

Shira sighed, having trust in Diego and they both entered the cave. After they entered the cave the entrance was suddenly blocked with snow.

"That. That's probably the worst that can happen" Shira said and started to walk into the cave while Diego chuckled at her comment.

Diego kept his eyes on the baby. Shira noticed this and said "Hey don't worry, nothing is going to happen with him"

As soon as Shira finished she walked under a ledge of ice and the ice scooped up the baby and the baby started sliding away from them. When they noticed this they both gasped and began sliding down the ice. After a few bumps Shira was able to grab the baby and hit a wall of ice. And seconds later Diego did the same. The snow fell on them and Shira was the first one out with the baby.

Diego hopped out all excited. "Yeah woo!" He lightly punched Shiras's shoulder. "Who's up for round two!?"

Shira gave him a look and Diego felt embarrassed. "Just me? T-Tell the kid to be more careful"

They both got up with the baby on Shira's back. Shira went up to Diego. "Hey maybe we can do it again when we deliver the baby" She lightly punched Diego's shoulder and smiled.

Diego smiled back and they both started walking again.

After a few minutes of walking towards a cave. There were paintings of animals and the baby laid in Shiras's fur as they passed one with sabers.

"Don't be scared they're just paintings, they're not real" Shira said to the baby.

They kept on walking a bit and Shira tried her best to calm the baby. "Look, this one has two saber cubs and they're playing with their parents" Shira was describing one of the paintings while Diego kept walking. "And they look like Diego." Shira explained to the baby.

But when she said that Diego completely stopped walking. He slowly went to the painting and looked at it. He remembered about 3 special people to him. "Mom" Diego put a paw on one of the parents. He moves his paw to the other. "Dad" Diego finally moved his paw to the younger saber.

"Daniel, I'm sorry" Diego said sadly.

"What happened?" Shira said.

"Daniel was my younger brother. He was my best friend at the time. We would always play together and have fun, I remember all the laughs we had." Diego chuckled sadly a bit.

Flashback:

"Ok I'm going to hunt," Diego's dad said as he got up.

"Can me and Diego join you Dad?" Daniel asked. Daniel had the same fur color as Diego and lighter green eyes. And was also the shortest.

"If it's okay with your mother"

"Go ahead," Diego's mom said. "But you can only watch Daniel, your still to young to take anything down"

"Okay mom" Daniel sighed.

"Let's go then" Diego got up.

The three of them left the cave. After a few minutes of walking they found a group of deers.

Diego's dad explained how to take a deer down. "Diego why don't you try and take it down"

"Me?" Diego asked.

"Yeah why not?" Diego's dad said.

"Are you sure it's safe?"

"I know your nervous, I was to, but then you'll learn that it is not hard to hunt"

Diego sighed "Okay"

"You got this, don't worry"

"Come on Diego how hard can it be," Daniel told Diego.

"Probably as hard as trying to pounce on me as you always do" Diego told his younger brother.

Diego and Daniel laughed and Diego started to sneak over to the antelope.

Diego kept quietly walking over to them and right as he was close to one he accidentally stepped on a branch.

The deer heard the branch and ran to Diego over as he felt the deer's feet hit him on the chest.

"Diego!" Diego's dad yelled as he pounded on the deer.

Diego slowly got up, feeling pain all over his chest and saw that there was another deer running towards Daniel.

"Daniel run!" Diego called him.

Daniel started to run, but Diego saw that the deer was faster than him as it got closer to Daniel.

Diego started to run as fast as he could to Daniel, but before he could pounce his wounds made him fall to the ground and groan.

When he got up he ran to where he last saw Daniel and saw that Daniel was on the floor, eyes closed, not moving. Diego grabbed his body and let the tears fall.

Flashback ends

Diego felt a tear go down his face as he finished explaining the story.

"I'm so sorry that you had to go through that," Shira said.

"We buried him near our cave and my parents kept telling me it wasn't my fault, but I know that it is." Diego sighed.

Diego felt something touch his back leg and saw that the baby was grabbing it. He smiled and patted the baby on the head with his paw.

"It wasn't your fault," Shira said.

Diego shook his head. "No it was, if I didn't step on the branch he would've still been alive. He would always talk about how he always wanted to learn how to hunt and take down a prey and now he'll never take down his first prey and it's all my fault and I have to deal with it everyday" Diego felt tears coming down his face.

Shira pulled Diego into a hug and let him cry into her fur while she gave him a caring nuzzle. After a few moments they pulled apart.

Diego smiled "Thanks Shira"

"Your welcome" Shira smiled back. "Wow even his smile looks good. I haven't met another saber ever since my pack. I'm really glad that I met this handsome- wait what? What am I thinking about? Do I like Diego? I mean he is handsome and we have a lot in common, but I only met him just a few days ago. I'm not even sure if he likes me back, but I should keep it to myself for now"

They decided to sleep in the cave so they did with Diego thinking about his little brother.

I forgot to add this scene so I did. Bye
