Sorry, we where rushed on the last chapter, we didn't get a chance to say:
The song we used was called "Noble Maiden Fair" We don't know who it's by, but the song is from "Brave" from Disney and Pixar.

chapter 7: The River of Lost Souls
"Listen up! If we make a raft, we can sail all night and arrive in the morning," Buck said.
"Where do we start?" Andi asked. A tree fell down right infront of her causing her to sceam.
"Why not with this?" Diego asked walking over to another tree to push it down.
"This'll work," Andi said.
"I'll get some vines," Buck said and went off.
"Hey, Dad?" Andi asked, using her claws to scrape off leaves.
"Hmmm," Diego replied looking out from behind a tree.
"Do you think mom, and Alex miss us?" She asked.
Diego pushed down another tree and walked over to her.
"I know your mom is having a heart attack. Alex might be alittle calmer, but I know he misses us, so does the rest of the herd, too," He replied.
Andi didn't reply she just nodded and went back to removing the leaves. Diego didn't know how to talk to her, he knew you had to approch a girl a different way. He knew you had to be sesitive, but he didn't know what to say or do.
"It's gonna be okay," he said.
"I know, I just miss 'em," she said, and gave her father a smile.
"I'm Back!" Buck yelled draging a bunch of vines.
"Alrighty then, lets get started," Andi said.
Buck was tieing the trees together, Andi was pushing the trees into a cirten pattern. Diego was looking for huge leaves to use as sails. Buck and Andi had made a small raft about twenty feet long, and close to fifteen feet wide. Diego had brought three large leaves and gave them to Buck. He used tree sap to glue them together, and used a leftover tree to pin the sail up.
"It's done! All aboard!" he shouted. Andi jumped on the raft, while Diego pushed it in the water and jumped on.
"We will be there in the morning, but until then you guys get some shut eye," Buck said from on top of the mast. The sun was no longer vistble and darkness was about them. Buck was wide awake looking over everything, when a roar came breaking the scilence.
"Rudy," Buck said to himself with a smile.
Andi couldn't sleep that night, the boat rocked back and forth and made her was to vomit, but she was stronger than that. She looked up at the ice covering the beautiful sky, her sky. In times of thought she did what her did. She'd run away and find a large cliff and look up at the sky. Normally she hated being up high, but as long as she didn't look down she was fine. She walked to the edge of the boat and felt no breeze, no wind. She sighed and looked a t the water. When she did she saw her mom and bother. She cried quietly. The one thing she missed the most was the summer breeze. Unknowingly buck had heard her. She thought everyone was asleep, but Buck scilently came up from behind her.
"Tiger?" he asked. Andi spun aound, then relized it was Buck.
"What do you want?" she asked wiping the tears out of her face.
"What's the matter with you?" Buck asked alittle insulted.
"Nothing, Why?" She asked turning back to the calm waters.
"I was just trying to be nice, and plus you were crying. You know you sabers care so much for your pride," Buck said.
"Really? I didn't knnow," she replied, her voice thick with sarcasm.
"Like I said before, trying to be nice," He said and turned around.
Andi let out a sigh, "Sorry," she said turning her head a little. Buck's ears perked up, that was the first time a he heard a saber swallow their pride, and apologize. At this point Diego had waken up but he kept his eyes closed.
"It's okay," Buck said.
"I just wanted to get away fro the domestic life, I felt so mush like a pet there. But I didn't want near death experiences, I just wanted adventure," Andi said.
"Well you know a wise weasel once told me this 'Every adventure has a lesson, a meaning, and fun'," Buck said quoting his father. Andi gave him a small smile.
"Thanks, Buck," she said.
"Your welcome. Goodnight, you should get rest, your gonna need if you want to live," Buck said and climbed to the top of the mast. Diego smiled and looked at his daughter.
"What?" She asked in confusion.
"Who are you more like, me or your mother?" Diego asked. Andi looked down then back up to her dad.
"You," She said.
"That's why I love you," Diego said with a smile. Andi giggled and curled up next to his stomach.
"Love you dad," She said and closed he eyes.
"Love you too," he said and went back to sleep.
