Chapter 2 of Get Back Here This Instant, Young Lady. The title should begin to make sense by chapter 3. Please review! PS I own nothing but my OC'S! I failed to mention this in Chapter 1, but you all know I don't own them, or else I wouldn't be writing a fan fiction. Hope I get the characters to be more in character this time.

IMPORTANT; READ; PLEASE!; YOU MUST!

I would also like to add that all the fan fictions so far (except chapter 5 of BBT, and she DID help me A LOT in all my stories to come up with concepts and stuff, along with other close friends) by "Mwang" aren't by the actual "Mwang" whom this account is named after. It's a shared account, and since she has little or no use for it, she let's me, Agent Smart, use it. Of Course, since this is under her name, I ask if she'll let me publish stories/leave reviews/PM Message and stuff...So yeah! She mostly just read the PM messages you guys send us, but she rarely or never responds to them. So just be aware that all these stories are actually mainly by Secret Agent Smart, who currently does NOT have account, but within a decade or two, I'll eventually get around to getting one...

Tabitha

It happened so fast. She was just meandering; acting the way any six year old would. And then...Then there was this earsplitting CRACK!...And then we heard her scream. It must have been terrible for Sid. He, Crash, and Eddie were supposed to be watching her.

Well, now Sid wouldn't be allowed near the girl. Ever.

If, that is, we ever saw her again.

After the accident, Crash and Eddie had told me to go get my dad. I'd shaken him awake and pulled him along.

Then he said something crazy.

We.

Were going to...To...To go down the land of...Dinosaurs.

What the heck was that supposed to mean?

My relatives were thinking the same thing.

"Buck! What are you talking about?" protested (Uncle) Matthias. "I told you all about it!" "DINOSAURS ARE EXTINCT!" he roared, shaking Dad by the shoulders. "If they are, well then that makes it all the safer for Peaches, doesn't it?" I locked eyes with him for a split second, silently asking him if I could tell Silas where we were going. He nodded faintly, and, though I wasn't sure, I though I caught him smirking out of the corner of my eye. Why couldn't he just let it go and understand that I DID NOT LIKE SILAS FOR ANYTHING MORE THAN A FRIEND?

"Hey, Tabitha!" called Silas as I walked into his father's map-selling/making place. He was covered in dust, and holding a crinkled map. "Hey, Si. You hear about what happened to Peaches?" "Yeah, Mom and Dad went over there. I would've gone my self, but somebody's gotta watch this place." He clambered down the rickety wooden ladder he'd been standing on. "Right. So the herd is gonna go look for her..." "WHAT? Go look for her? How are they gonna get down there in the first place?" I shrugged. "They said something about Dinosaurs..." He laughed. "You're dad's more insane than I thought!" I lunged at him, knocking him to the ground with me on top of him. I blocked all thoughts of the romantic stories I'd read, thinking only of how he'd just insulted my father. "Take it back," I hissed. "Okay, okay. He's only a little insane," he whimpered. I stood and dusted myself off.

Silas

Even after we bid farewell, I couldn't stop thinking about how only minutes before we'd been so close to each other...I shook away those thoughts. She was Tabitha Festus for crying out loud! I wouldn't be surprised if she died a perfectly happy old woman with no mate. She just wasn't one for romance.

Her dad teased us about our friendship, not often, as Tabitha always ended up socking, tackling, or occasionally pressure pointing (although the latter got her into trouble) him after each remark. But still. Enough to get me thinking...No. Don't be silly. If anything, she considers you a brother, I told myself.

But deep down, I mildly hoped I was wrong.

Buck

Everyone was ready; Manny and Ellie were frantic. Crash and Eddie were annoyed at Manny for jumping whenever they said something that sounded even mildly like "Peaches" (this included Pear, Partridge, Pie, Peninsula, and Penguin). Melody, Dorothy, and Matthias were joining us, despite their uncertainty towards there being any other world besides the Ice Age. We'd found another entrance to the dino world some time ago, although it was much more treacherous than the last one.

Half an Hour Later

We trudged on, saying nothing. All chatter had ceased twenty minutes ago, and now everyone was concentrating on the person in front of them. Sid broke the silence. "So where do you think she'll be?" he lisped. "Well, this is just an estimated guess, but I'd say somewhere near the Plates Of Woe. Or perhaps Lava Falls." I heard Ellie whimper, and Matthias mutter something under his breath. Tabitha sighed loudly. "Is that far?" "Roughly a day's journey." She groaned. "Hey, as long as you stay in the middle of the path, you should be alright," I said. I chuckled, "Or at least you'll live longer than the last guy who fell down there." "How long did he live?" she inquired. "He didn't. He died when he fell." Ellie made a sound like she was going to cry. Melody punched me. Quickly, I added, "Of course, he was already well over seventy. And, to top it off, he fell into a dinosaur's mouth." "Buck, just shut up," growled Manny. "Oi, only we can tell Buck to shut up," snapped Matthias. To me, he said, "Shut up." I wilted a little. Sid cried out, and we rushed over to see what was wrong.

" Just shut up, Buck. I don't feel like talking." "Katherine-" "No, Buck, you don't understand."

Soon enough, we found ourselves at the edge of a boiling cauldron of orange goo. Over the middle was stretched a small bridge, barely wide enough for a mammoth to squeeze through on tippy toe.

That is, if mammoths HAVE toes.

Do they? I mean, from a weasel's point of view they more or less have stumpy feet. Any way, Diego caught Sid by the scruff of his neck before he could fall in. Tabitha crept too close to the edge for my liking, and I gently pulled her back. Sure enough, the ground where she had been previously standing crumbled. I gave her a look that said, "See?" She looked frightened at the thought of being boiled weasel, and walked closer to me as the herd made their way to the bridge. Ellie took a step forward, but Manny stopped her. "Let me go first." To Diego, I whispered, "If it can hold him, it can hold us." It splintered a little as he stepped off onto the other side safely, and Ellie told us to go first. Diego went first, and then everyone else followed, including Ellie.

Once on the other side, we continued.

Finally (Praise God!), we saw a light.

"When we die, do you think we'll really see a light?" "Gee...I...I don't really know. I mean, I would think so, since the sky is closer to the sun than we are on earth..."

Boom. Heh...I couldn't wait to write the next chapter. *blushes* don't hate me-

Dot Warner (walks in): Because I'm cute.

Me: I wasn't going to say that...

Dot: I'm the cute one, so it doesn't matter.

Me: :(

Me: WAIT a minute! how'd you even get here! you're not even in my story!

Dot: Dunno. All I know is that I see Brad Pitt over there!

Yakko Warner (walks in): Girls, go fig.

Me: AAAAAAAAAH! WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM?

The Brain (walks in): from the super magnetic infindibulator, of course.

Tabitha: That's all folks! Review please!
