"So, this is kinda awkward," Squint said, scratching his head.
"What do we do now? Now that Gupta.
Peaches, feeling sorry for the others and said, "how about I'll take you to my family?"
"Really?" Raz asked.
"Yea, well, uh, if you promise not to attack them," Peaches said. "And it's nearly dark soon."
Silas nodded, "we should probably say sorry to them."
Flynn and the others nodded.
"Great, let's go." Smiled Peaches.
It's gonna be night soon Louis thought as he walked, he needed to find somebody. But his luck kicked in.
"Louis?"
Louis turned around and saw a mammoth standing in front of him.
"Ethan? Oh hello."
"What are you doing out here so late?" Ethan asked.
"Well, it was just um, going home." Louis laughed nervously.
"Oh okay. Hey, if you see Peaches. Tell her I said hi." Ethan smiled.
"Will do." Louis mumbled.
Ethan nodded and walked past Louis.
I need to tell him! Louis thought.
"Wait."
Ethan turned and saw Louis staring back at him. "What?"
"I just wanted to say, um, that you are a really lucky guy." Louis said. "But I just wanted to say, if anything happens to Peaches, I want you to protect her."
Ethan knew what he was trying to say. "Are you leaving, aren't you?"
Louis sighed, "yea, I figured now that she's got you. She won't need me. So I probably go somewhere else. Like have an adventure. And I know that you are more capable to protect her. Unlike me."
Louis turned around and walked away.
"Peaches would be unhappy without you." Ethan said. Louis stopped.
"I doubt that. She has you." Louis said and continued walking.
Ethan watched the little guy go. "Maybe she will be more happy with you." He whispered.
Manny watched his herd as they all stayed outside the cave.
"Diego has been in there for a long time now." Eddie started.
"With Shira." Crash added.
"Together." They both said.
"Do you think..." Crash said.
"...Should we find out?" Eddie smiled.
"Boys, don't have your minds go to another planet." Ellie rolled her eyes. She layed down next to her husband who watched over his herd.
"It's nearly time for bed." Sid said and yawned. The night was now full of stars. And the wind danced with the trees.
Sid shivered a bit. "Manny, can I cuddle with you?"
"Forget it." Said the huge mammoth.
"Please?"
"No way."
"Pretty please?"
"Go cuddle up next to the possums." Manny said.
"Nevermind, I'll just sleep on this rock." Sid layed on a small rock and added, "but if I get a cold, Manny is being blame for it."
Ellie giggled at Sid's remark.
Granny came back. "What did I miss?"
The possums who were now in a tree answered. "Diego is trying to make a move on Shira in that cave."
"Eddie! Crash!" Ellie glared at her brothers.
"Say what?!" Granny yelled.
"Shh!" Sid said.
"Dad!"
Manny turned around and saw his darling daughter.
"Hello honey." Manny said and those two hug.
"Ready for bed?" Ellie asked, standing up now.
"Well actually," Peaches looked back where she came from. "Come out guys."
Manny growled and stood in front of Peaches. "How did you guys get out?"
"Relax, we not here to hurt anybody." Raz said.
"Yea, we just came here to say there is no crew any longer." Gupta said and the boar nodded.
"Lies." Manny said.
"No, Dad. I was there, those guys are telling the truth." Peaches said.
"You went near those guys?" Manny turned to his daughter.
"It's not what you think."
"Manny, I think she's right." Ellie stepped in.
Manny sighed and nodded, "okay I believe you. But there's no way I trusting that guy." Manny pointed at Moonstone.
"Are we really trusting them after they tried to kill us?" Eddie asked.
"Twice," Crash added as they both hoped onto Ellie's head.
Sid stood up from his rock. "Well, everybody has a soft spot in their heart." Sid rested his arm on Moonstone.
"If you don't remove your arm, I swear your nose will go missing." Moonstone warned.
Sid chuckled, "your only kidding. Right?"
"I say we bash them up like I did when I went to the unicorn land." Granny said.
"What?" Silas said.
"We just came here to say sorry." Raz said.
"Yea, and that we don't want any trouble." Flynn said.
"We were also wondering if Shira is gonna be alright." Raz added.
Ellie smiled. "I think Shira might heal in a week."
"Where is Gutt?" Eddie asked.
"And Elia?" Crash asked.
"They both ran like cowards," Squint said.
"So you guys are gonna be apart of our herd?" Sid asked.
"Sid," Manny started.
"Oh, it would be great if you guys joined." Ellie agreed.
Manny rolled his eyes, too late.
Silas shooked his head. "I think we are going our separate ways tomorrow."
The others nodded.
"Where?" Peaches asked.
"We are not sure yet." Squint said. "But we gonna need a ship to go on."
"You can borrow ours, I don't think we will be needing it ever again." Ellie said.
"Thanks." Raz said.
"I want to see Diego." Moonstone suddenly asks.
"Why?" Sid asked.
"Yea, why?" Manny glared at him.
"I only need to chat with him for a few minutes." Moonstone answered.
"Diego's probably asleep now and I don't think he would want you near him or Shira." Manny said.
"Dad, give him a chance." Peaches begged.
Suddenly as saber attacked Moonstone to the ground.
"Why the hell are you here?" Diego growled at Moonstone. "I should cut off your head right now."
"Diego!" Ellie cried. "He's not part of the crew anymore."
Diego looked up, "what?"
Moonstone and Diego walked to a beach area.
"So what do you want to tell me?" Diego asks. Manny and Ellie explained the whole thing to him and he guess he could go with it but still doesn't trust this guy.
"I was never meant to join Gutt's crew." Moonstone said. "And it wasn't part of my plan."
"What plan? To mate with Shira?!" Diego growled.
"First of all, calm down. I never did it with her." Moonstone said.
"What?"
"The crew thought I did it and it's not like I had no choice."
Diego seemed to calm down a bit. "Is that all you wanted to say?"
"No, I came here to find you for months." Moonstone said. "To send a message to you from someone."
"I'm listening."
"The Blood is calling for you."
Diego eyes widened. The Blood is wanting him, so The Blood is wanting him after all these years.
There you have it, Moonstone part was to send a message to Diego...
If you ask me, I wouldn't go to that trouble to send a message to someone BUT this does take us to more suspense!
So who is The Blood? I want you guys to try an answer it (hehehe)
I'll give you one clue...
1. The Blood is someone veryclose to Diego
I bet no one can guess that, but if someone does answer that is or nearly the answer. I will give you a um a free cupcake! :D I'll give you time to answer that question.
