Hey everyone I'm back! Sorry for the long wait I was busy with other things such as my birthday and going back to school. Anyway thank you White Hunter, candy-apple14, Air Wolf 450, Mystery, and kobe for your reviews and your patience. The next chapter is finally up so just sit back and enjoy!
Pacing his white paws down shaking the Earth from under, Iorek galloped through the forest hiking across the valley for his human ally along with the rest of his human friends. The ice bear soon skidded to a halt so he could catch his breath.
(HEAVY PANTING)
"Roshan…(panting)…where have you gone!" Iorek said to himself
Feeling like he wasn't going to have any luck finding the boy and his friends he sat down to rest. But he was soon interrupted when a white female falcon swooped down and perched onto a tree branch.
"Well and here I thought you were the big and the mighty" said the female falcon
Looking straight up into the tree, Iorek realized who it was as he gasped in shock.
"Shaylyn! Is it really?" said Iorek surprisingly
Shaylyn chuckled and flew down and perched onto a log. "Yes Iorek my dear, I have returned" she replied back
"It's been a long time Shaylyn. Tell me what brings you to these woods?" Iorek replied
"I think the better question is what brings you to these woods?" Shaylyn confirmed
"I seek for my young sparrow Roshan and his colleagues. They went missing over a night ago and now I can't find them anywhere" Iorek explained
"I can see it in your heart that you're willing to do whatever it takes to bring the boy home. I will help you find him" Shaylyn spoke in wisdom
"You know where he could be found?" Iorek asked
Shaylyn nodded. "Yes indeed. Just follow your nose wherever it takes you and you'll seek your destination"
Shaylyn spread her wings out and flapped them down causing a flash of wind to clear the shadows of the jungle giving it light for the ice bear to see. When everything seem noticeable, Iorek caught smelled of a familiar scent that he recognized and he looked down when he saw foot-prints that were similar to Roshan's. Sniffing the ground for a moment, Iorek finally picked up the scent and looked straight forward knowing where he needed to go now.
Iorek turned back to Shaylyn. "Thank-you my love"
"Anything for an old friend and good luck to you" Shaylyn replied back
Iorek smiled while nodding and began to make his journey before he was stopped for a minute.
"…and Iorek" Shaylyn called to the bear. "If you find Roshan tell him his auntie Shay say's hi. It's been a long time since I've seen the little rascal"
Smiling even more Iorek nodded back again. "Will do, Shaylyn, will do" he replied
Iorek then took off on the trail the children had taken as he journeyed on again before Shaylyn flew away back into the open skies from above.
The scene changes back at the human campsite where more worried parents began questioning Runar on any updates about the whereabouts of their children. After having enough to be said, Runar went back into his tent and he frustratingly rubbed his face down with his hand feeling like he was going to explode.
Runar then began walking towards the rear-exit of the tent while Ragnar sat down blowing smoke from his mouth from the tip of a weed stick.
"Why so glum chum?" Ragnar asked his brother
"Why? Why must it still come like this! First my son goes missing and the next thing you know the bear is missing as well! What more torture can I get today?" said Runar feeling fed up
"You could dump your head in a river and end your suffering" Ragnar suggested
Growling from under his breath, Runar turned around and walked towards his brother and he slapped him right across the face knocking him to the ground.
(SLAP)
"ARGH!" grunted Ragnar
"God dammit don't you ever stop to think that you should start caring for others more often! This is serious!" Runar yelled sternly
Runar gruntingly picked himself off the ground. When he did, he looked down at the palm of his hand when he noticed there was blood all over it; then he touch his lip with the tip of his finger when he figured the blood was coming right out of his nose and he wiped it off with his sleeve.
"What the hell's with you?" Ragnar yelled back
"What's with me? What the hell's with me? I'll tell you what the hell's with me, my son has been missing for over 24 hours now, I have 50 million parents coming over to me in and about asking me whether we should do something about our missing children for heaven's sake and here you are telling me that everything's going to be alright when you know it's not. Now's my turn to ask you, 'what the hell's with you'?" Runar confronted his brother
"What are you talking about all I'm doing is giving you faith" Ragnar reassured
"Well either your faith's not helping or it's just not helping you at all!" Runar said sternly
"I've never seen you overreact like this before. Not since after…Nadia that is" said Ragnar
Quickly turning back, Runar clenched his brother by the shirt and pulled him to his face showing the anger he had on his face.
"Never speak of my wife's name! She is dead and she'll never come back!" Runar shouted
"Temper, temper!" Ragnar shouted back. "What's making you act like this?"
"Everything!" Runar shouted. "Now if you will excuse me I need some fresh air"
Runar angrily walked out of the tent leaving Ragnar in his despair. After he was gone, Ragnar wiped off the remaining blood that was dripping from his nose and he sat back in his seat. He soon reached into his pocket and pulled out a small vile that he kept in his coat pocket for quite a while; he then picked up an air from the side of him and he popped the cork off and dumped the tip of his arrow into the vile and held it back up when it was all covered in some strange liquid. Ragnar held the arrow to his face and studied it before letting out an evil smirk.
"Enjoy all the fresh air you need brother" said Ragnar. "By the time I'm done with you this tribe will be begging for a new leader. And that man…is me!"
(EVIL LAUGHING)
The scene changes back with Roshan and the herd as Lolo was seen playing with her little hyrax pal when she cornered him with Crash and Eddie who were shouting in fear.
"No, please, please leave us be!" Crash begged
"We're too young be cuddled! Eddie begged
(HYRAX CHITTERING IN FEAR)
"Aww c'mon! You guys look so cute together it just makes me wanna…" Lolo replied happily
(CRASH, EDDIE AND THE HYRAX SCREAMING)
Ignoring pleads, Lolo bundled the possums and the hyrax into a great big hug as threesome felt like they were getting the life squeezed right out of them.
(CHOKING)
(WEEZING)
"Help…(choking)…us!" Eddie pleaded
"…can't…(choking)…breathe!" Crash pleaded
(HYRAX CHOKING)
Lolo turned to Rowan and the other female herd members. "Aren't they just adorable!" she cheered
Rowan chuckled. "They sure are" she replied
Shira snorted. "Yeah adorable…yet road-kill that's for sure"
"Shira!" said Ellie surprisingly the way she talked about her brothers like that
"Oh back off you said it yourself" Shira pointed out
Seeing she was right, Ellie turned away smirking from the other side of her face. "So I did, didn't I?" she replied
She, Shira and Rowan laughed in conversation while Peaches watched the young girl play around with her uncles. As she watched she noticed Louis giggling to himself from out of the corner of her eye and she tapped him on the shoulder.
"What's with you stinky legs?" Peaches asked
Louis giggling turned to her attention. "Nothing I just feel a little gassy that's all" he replied
Not believing him, Peaches raised a brow and smirked down at him. "You're enjoying my uncle's torment are you?"
"Girl you have no idea!" Louis laughed. "For the first time in my life I get to watch someone's suffering instead of them watching mine! And for once it's not my problem!"
"You sure about that?" called a voice
Peaches and Louis turned to see Rowan walking towards them. "It's a little chilly in here and I could use a good snuggling time. Would you?"
"I accept it…hey wait! No, that's not what I meant!" Louis pleaded
"Too late!" said Rowan
Rowan grabbed a hold of the mole hog and she began cuddling him tight in her arms like he was a warm plush toy.
(CHOKING)
(WEEZING)
Wishing he would have kept his little mouth shut, Louis started to feel the life squeeze right out of him as the teenage girl continued hugging him.
"Peaches…(choking)…please!...(choking)…help me!" Louis pleaded
Peaches giggled. "That's not my problem, Louis"
The females continued laughing again watching the male's in their misfortune.
Kodak sat away from the group grunting with frustration as he ran his hand through his hair. He was having a difficult time figuring out a way to keep Roshan and the rest of the group away from the campsite so that he wouldn't disappoint Ragnar but his mind was just overflowing with too much pressure. But all was soon stopped when Granny, who had just woken up from her nap, waddled over to the older boy and he grabbed him by the chin and turned him to face her.
"Hey sweet lips have you seen Precious!" Granny asked sternly
Kodak slapped her paw away. "No I haven't! I don't even know who that is you old bag and I don't care!" he replied grumpily
(WHACK)
"OW!" cried Kodak with pain
Rubbing the top of his head, he looked back noticing it was Granny who clonked him over the head with her stick.
"What are you crazy?" Kodak demanded
"Respect your elder's big mouth!" Granny yelled
Newt and Minho snickered by the reaction Kodak had just gotten while Rowan just seemingly rolled her eyes at him before she went back to cuddling Louis.
Meanwhile Manny, Sid and Diego were chatting with the teen boys.
"So, so wait a minute? You encountered dinosaurs?" Roshan asked surprisingly
"That's right! I was the man of the jungle; they treated me like a father' Sid said heroically
"You must have been brave" said Roshan
"Right after he stole them from underground and then later kidnapped by a very angry mommy dinosaur" said Manny sarcastically
Roshan, Newt and Minho looked back at Sid with raising eye-brows before Sid chuckled nervously.
"She wasn't angry she was just picking a bone!" Sid confirmed
"Yeah but she would have picked that bone right out of your skull" said Diego sarcastically
"How is that even possible to believe?" Roshan asked
"Yeah but I thought those bloody reptiles were extinct?" said Newt
"Yeah that's what we thought before we had to rescue him" Diego pointed out
"It's amazing though! You guys have discovered so many places during your past lives that man could never be able to locate ever" said Minho feeling interested
"Believe us kid it's a family thing that goes on around here" said Manny smirking
"I can believe that" Minho replied
"Me too! I'm British and I respect anyone with that kind of potential love for adventure!" said Newt cheerfully
"British? What the heck is that?" Diego asked
"You know I still haven't figured it out yet" Newt explained
That suddenly got all the males laughing at the same time hearing what Newt just said and they laughed it all the way.
"Hey it's already during the day and we still haven't gone home yet. We better get moving" Roshan suggested
"It's a long walk back to the tribe" Minho pointed out
"Yeah and besides we don't even know how to get there" Newt pointed out
"I think you got something there. How are we gonna get back home?" Roshan asked himself the question
Manny saw the look in the boy's eyes telling him that he was clueless and lost and he had no idea how to get back where he belongs. It was something that reminded him back when, when he, Sid and Diego tried returning him back to his father through the ice age. He knew leaving the kids defenseless would make them weak and he wanted to do something about it. So with a decision made he stood back up and placed his trunk on the boy's shoulder. Roshan noticed the fuzzy feeling on his shoulder and he looked up at the mammoth's face
"I'll help you" Manny volunteered
Roshan blinked in surprise. "You will?"
Manny patted the boy's shoulder and nodded. "Of course I will. It's a family thing we do in this herd" he reassured
Diego walked up and nudged the boy's hand making him look down at the saber.
"So will I" Diego volunteered
Roshan turned over to Newt and Minho who were surprised as well as they expressed their smiles to him before more of the herd members began volunteering.
"I'll help you sweetie" Ellie volunteered
"Me too!" Shira volunteered
"Us three!" Peaches volunteered with Louis
"Don't you mean 'two'?" Louis confirmed
"It's the same thing" Peaches confirmed back
"Oh" Louis managed to say
"I'll go but I won't like it!" Granny grumpily volunteered
After seeing every herd member volunteer the kids waited on Sid for an answer to see if he'll help them get back home.
"Well…if you're going to help them and you're going to help them. There's only one thing I can say" said Sid
"What's that?" Manny asked
"Good luck!" said Sid
Sid turned to run back to his rock Manny pulled him back and he and Diego began bopping and smacking him on the head.
(DIEGO GROWLING)
"You would!" Manny yelled
(BOP)
"OW!" cried Sid
(SMACK)
"OW!" cried Sid once again
(BOP)
"OW!" cried Sid for the last time
Roshan, Rowan, Newt, Minho, Kodak and Lolo watched as the sloth got smacked around by his playmates in anguish and despair.
"This is going to be harder than I thought" Roshan whispered to himself
Well everyone there you have it! And old friend of Iorek's just popped up in the story. Manny and the herd have all agreed to help Roshan and his friends get back home. And it looks like Ragnar is up to no good! What will happen next? Please review and keep spreading me some more ideas and stay tuned because more will be coming your way!
