Disclaimer: I do not own anything 'Ice Age' related other than my OCs, and this story.

Note: I changed the summary, and hopefully it suits the story better. Or not. You guys decide ;)

Yes, and the fact that he idolizes Buck is great, I hope that Buckminster makes an appearance in the fourth film of 'Ice Age' if they're making another film. That'd be great, I would watch it over and over. Haha, and poor Sid. I'm so cruel to him when it comes to fighting scenes, and thanks for the review Locrian-Mode. I hope to read more of your story.

I... FOUND... THE GREATEST SONG FOR OUR FAVOURITE BACHELORS (used to be...)! "All For Love" by Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart and Sting - I love it, I think it suits Manny, Sid and Diego's brotherhood and their loved ones. The song is originally from 'The Three Musketeers' so whenever I think about 'Ice Age' I can see our favourite animals in armor and hats, complete with the fencing swords. Lol. I advise you to listen to it, it's absolutely amazing, and if I had to pick, who would be who... I'd say Sid can be Rod Stewart, Sting is Manny and Bryan Adams is Diego.

Now I want to find a song for Buckminster, lol.

Anyways,

~Enjoy, and happy readings ;)

Hello Rudy, Chapter Thirteen

The pterodactyl that had been carrying Buck finally dropped the weasel on the surface of the Abyss. Buck, flipping to his feet checked his surroundings for any sign of the Baryonyx. A smile crept into his face; he can smell the beast. Rudy was near, and had the sky turned grey? Yes. Just perfect. He sensed a storm coming.

Various tall trees in the distance, a cliff here and there, and the Abyss was at the center of it all; in between. He was hopeless without his knife, but he couldn't go look for the weapon now. Rudy's minions were patrolling the area, and a few had landed on the edges of the cliffs to keep watch unless he tries to escape back into the rain forest.

Loud thumps, Buck's head snapped into the direction of falling trees...

"Then came a mighty roar!"

The crowd of animals gasped.

Rudy emerged from the rain forest, and came another roar that sent the startled pterodactyls sitting on the edge of the cliffs to fly. The white dinosaur turned it's ruby eyes to it's rival, growling in hatred as he licked the spot of where his tooth used to be.

"Hello, Rudy." came Buck's calm greeting.

The Baryonyx stepped forward, and Buck stepped back.

"Now Buck knew what Rudy was thinking," the weasel told, "He could even feel it; thousands of teeth crunching down on his limbs to keep him from escaping. But of course, this is the Buck we're talking about. He can out run any dinosaur... at least, that's what he thought."

"OH MY GOD HE DIED!"

The animals glared at the opossum, "SHH!"

The heavens started to cry, the many droplets of water pour from the skies and onto Buck and Rudy's battlefield. However, came a flash of thunder and Buckminster was gone. Rudy drew back and looked to the distance where he saw that petite weasel running. He quickly went in pursuit, gaining on the small creature. He snapped once but Buck had already turned the other way towards the cliffs. His eyes shifted to the direction of the weasel, and with his tail, Rudy flicked Buck away from the cliffs.

Buck cried out as he hit solid ground with a sickening crunch from one his arms. Great, just what he needed, a broken limb. The ground began to rumble beneath him, and his conscience called out to him.

Get up, Buck!

The weasel forced himself up and he was on all fours a moment later. He was limping, but running like this was faster than running on two feet. His lone ocean blue oculars darted in all directions, trying to find something he could use against Rudy. The rain wasn't helping, and definitely not the thunder. He could get struck at any moment now, and he'd serve as a wonderful appetizer to Rudy. He knew he would.

He spotted ammo in the distance, berries on a branch. If he could get it, and use it on Rudy's eyes, he could escape. Buck forced himself to run faster.

Lighting struck the ground a few feet away in front of him, and Buck tripped over himself, sliding across the slippery surface of the Abyss.

The ground cracked beneath him and he hopped off before the ground gave away. When he looked up, he met the crimson eyes of Rudy. Buck prayed that the surface beneath the baryonyx would crack open, but he was being too hopeful. This is the end.

"Up here, ugly!"

Rudy looked up and a familiar knife, Buck's knife, and what used to be his tooth struck him right in the pupil. He roared in pain and stumbled back. That damn bat!

"Owned by a bat," Crash said, he turned to his brother, "AWESOME." they both said in union and held on tight as Lois dove towards the ground.

"Hold on!" she said. More pterodactyls had appeared over the cliffs. Crash and Eddie waved her off, "Leave it to us, Lois!" one of them said, and pulled out more ammo.

"Yeah!" Eddie started firing, "We'll do the throwing, and you can do the flying."

"You know, it's dangerous to be flying in the rain." Lois stated, "Are you sure you want to do this?!"

"Anything for Buck!" Ten pterodactyls down, and a dozen more to go.

Diego reached the edge of the cliff panting, his eyes darting to the direction of Rudy. He watched as Manny retrieved Buck and disappeared into the forest before he turned back to the dinosaur. He waited, and waited, and when Rudy was below him he leaped into the air towards Rudy's forehead.

His vision blurred, and Diego missed his landing spot, sliding down the slippery scales of the Baryonyx. He quickly sunk his claws into the dinosaur's flesh, and came a roar of pain from Rudy. Diego held on tight as the dinosaur tried to shake him off. Slowly, he pushed himself forward, grabbing onto the bumps on Rudy's back, and he started to climb.

The rain and the wind blowing by made it difficult to climb the dinosaur, but Diego didn't give up. He was starting to climb Rudy's neck now. If he could just reach that next...

A pterodactyl slammed into him. Diego lost his grip and desperately tried to hold onto Rudy's side he's been able to hold onto, which was much harder with the rain, the wind, and the flying creature who's being such a nuisance. He closed his eyes shut to take a moment to breathe. He was getting worse by the minute, his heart felt as if it was getting squeezed by something inside him. Panting, Diego looked up worriedly. If he just reach that bump.

Dun dun dun...
