Chapter 2
Manny finally woke up. He was a bit confused but he realised he was tied to the mast of Gutt's ship. He looked up.
"Welcome to the party, buddy" Diego said sarcastically from the branch leading of the mast above Manny. Diego was not in the best mood since he was watching Shira and this "Daniel" the whole time. He couldn't bear to see Shira near this idiot.
'Why are they so close?' Diego asked himself. He wanted Shira to be beside HIM so badly. Daniel gave Diego a hateful glare.
"Morning, sunshine. Let me be the first to extend the hand of friendship." Gutt said to Manny, making fun of him. Manny rolled his eyes.
"That's your foot." Manny said. Flynn laughed.
"Shut up!" Gutt growled before turning back to the mammoth.
"What do you want?" Manny asked him, raising one eyebrow. Gutt just smirked at him.
"I bet you're feeling lost, scared, confused..." Gutt said with a smile.
"And furious..." Manny murmured.
"Allow me to explain. Help me out, guys!" Gutt shouted to his crew and with that they all burst into song.
"Come on babe." Daniel said to Shira, taking her paw in his own and licking it, to much Diego's anger.
Song :
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'd like to note that you're in luck
You've been saved by the ape that rules these waters
So forget about your wives and daughters!
First mate introduce me to them pleeease!
Aye, Aye, Captain Gutt.
He's a big scary
Elegant and hairy
Feared inspiring years till' retiring
Lotting stealing
Banana peeling!
Undisputed master of the seas!
Oh jeez
That's me!
Tis' he!
That's me!
Tis' he!
That's me!
Tis' he!
Okay, Okay,
I'm a a primate pirate pioneer and these are my brave buccaneers
All of whom were once lost souls like you
It's true!
He rescued us!
He saved our butts!
For that we owe our lives to Gutt and assuming he doesn't kill you
You will owe him too!
Here we are on ship
Moving at quite a clip through the ever shifting ice
Come along on a trip
That's a hint
That's a tip
That's good advice
In a world that's going under
To survive you must learn to plunder
Luckily that's my field of expertise
He's the best!
He's a robbing thieving
We really should be leaving
Weapon throwing
We gotta get going
Sloth slaying
Wish we could be staying
Undisputed
Uncontested
Monkey suited
Yeah you guessed it!
Master of the seas!
Oh please!
That's me!
Tis' he!
That's me!
Tis' he!
It's who?
It's you!
Just testing
I knew
It's me!
Manny rolled his eyes while Diego gave Daniel a glare which he immediately returned.
" 'Captain Gutt'? Really? I have a little paunch, too, but I wouldn't name myself after it. It's ridiculous." Manny said, rolling his eyes at him.
With Diego...
"Hey Blynn!" Diego called, attracting the elephant seal's attention.
"You mean Flynn." Flynn said, walking up to him.
"Er... Yeah, sorry... Who is Daniel?" Diego asked, clenched teeth.
"Daniel is a sabre-tooth tiger." Flynn answered simply.
"No! I meant for Shira." Diego explained, increasingly impatient.
"Ah! Sorry. Daniel is Shira's mate. They are cute together, they aren't?" Flynn replied, smiling happily.
Diego froze.
'Mate!? MATE!?' he thought in shock. He couldn't believe it! Pain was tearing his heart into tiny peaces. But before he could say something...
"GRANNY!" Sid exclaimed. Gutt had finally had enough of them he was going to make them walk th plank starting with Granny.
"After you, my lady." Gutt said to Granny, sarcastically. She gave him a smile.
She had reached the end of the plank.
'Patience and it will be your turn, Diego...' Daniel thought devilishly.
"Hey Manny, steer me towards the end of the ship." Diego instructed from the mast. Manny nodded and moved him from the trunk of the tree until he reached the rope holding most of the ship together he bit into it cutting the rope, cutting himself, Manny, Sid and Granny free.
However, when he bit into the rope he not only set his friends free but the plank went down, towards Shira...
"SHIRA!" Diego yelled, panicked. He rushed at her and pushed her away from the plank. But he didn't calculate his trajectory so he fell into the water with Shira in his arms.
She struggled.
"Let go of me! Who do you think you are!?" Shira shouted at him. Diego hold her tighter, appreciating the feeling of her fur against his and leaped onto the ice float with Manny, Sid and Granny on. For some reason, Shira liked it...
He put Shira gently. "Are you okay, my- I mean kitty?" Diego asked, very worried.
She glared at him.
"I didn't need your help." she said to Diego, stubbornly. Diego smiled.
"You're welcome." he said, with a smile on his face.
When they were about to go they saw Daniel choking and spluttering on the salty water, he obviously couldn't swim.
"Help! Help!" he shouted, splashing the water with his paws. Diego smiled at the scene while Shira seemed very worried for her mate.
"Grab on." Manny said, extending his trunk to the sabre.
"Manny, we don't have to save this idiot." Diego whispered to Manny. The mammoth gave Diego a stern look.
Diego sighed.
"Daniel!" Shira said, worriedly.
Daniel's eyes darted towards HIS mate and he grabbed onto his trunk without hesitating.
