Hey everybody what's up! I'm back with a new chapter and also thank White Hunter for reviewing, thank you again. Anyway, just do me a favor and sit back and enjoy the chapter!
Also have you guys heard of the new Easter special that Blue Sky Studios is having for Ice Age, it's called, "Ice Age: The Great Egg-Scapade" that will be aired on Sunday, March 20th (7:30-8:00 PM ET/PT). Check it out and see who's playing in it!
The herd, now, traveling together with the humans were on a quest to find the children's campsite. Manny was leading the way as always; but he had Roshan riding on his back; Ellie was walking beside her husband along with Rowan riding on her back. Newt, Minho and Kodak walked on the ground with the sloths, the sabers, and the possums; Newt walked next to Peaches who had Louis riding on her top-knot; Minho walked next to Diego and Shira as the three stayed focused on their surroundings for any suspicions that might harm the herd; Lolo, however, was playing around with Sid, Crash, Eddie and her little hyrax friend as they were playing tag.
"How are you holding up there, Roshan?" said Manny
"Pretty good" Roshan replied back. "Such an amazing view from up here don't you think?"
Manny chuckled. "You know it seems like it was only yesterday, when I had you riding on my back. But you were only an itsy-bitsy little baby"
"Yeah I remember that. You would always carry me around so Sid wouldn't complain about wanting to have a ride" said Roshan remembering the memory
"That sure was torture" said Manny
"You think that was torture. How about the time I plucked the nose hairs out of your trunk" Roshan pointed out
Eye-popping in surprise, Manny curled his trunk and hid it away. "Okay now that was torture!"
"After all these years it still hasn't end hasn't it?" Roshan said smiling
Manny shook his head. "Nope. It's kind of what runs in the family"
"I can see that pretty clear now" Roshan replied
"So tell me squirt how exactly did you, your friends, and your tribe arrive on our landmark?" Manny asked
"Well you see we weren't migrating like you guys normally do. We were evacuating due to the massive shakings in the grounds that broke our home apart. But we all managed to get out of there as a family" Roshan explained
"Really? That's easy for you to say, Diego, Sid and me got separated from our herd by floating away on an ice berg out into the open ocean. I haven't seen my family for three days" Manny explained his back story
"Well at least you still have ones that care about you and listen to you when needed" said Roshan being thankful for Manny's family
"What do you mean by that? Doesn't your father love you?" Manny asked about the boy's dad
Roshan hesitated when he heard the word father come up for a moment. As far as knew to himself he didn't think about his dad for a second. Probably it was because his father never actually thought about him either. All the boy knew that his father was always busy trying to keep the tribe alive and kicking' all he never had time for his son. Something Roshan never liked to mention about.
"I…I don't want to talk about it" said Roshan
"But haven't answered my question, does your father still care about you?" Manny asked again
"Just don't worry about it. It's not that important" Roshan told him
"But…" said Manny
"Don't make me rip your nose hairs out again" Roshan warned
"…okay" said Manny doing what he was told and he continued onward
"That's weird. Long ago we returned the kid to his father and he was pleased and now he saying he doesn't want to talk about it. What could that mean?" Manny thought to himself
"Manny. I'm-I'm sorry I didn't mean to say that to you" Roshan apologized
"No, no it's okay. Please if you don't want to talk about then that's fine by me" Manny reassured the boy
"You sure?" Roshan asked
"I'm positive" Manny reassured with a smile
"Something tells me he isn't sure" Roshan thought to himself
"I'm still not sure if you're okay, kid" Manny thought to himself, still smiling
Meanwhile while Peaches was minding her own business Newt came running beside her as the skinny boy was hiding flowers behind his back.
"Oh hey…umm…Newt right?" Peaches asked the boy
Newt nodded. "That's right love"
"I knew I was right. Say what's that you got behind your back?" said Peaches
"Oh what these?" said Newt as he held the flowers out. "There just a little token of appreciation for a lady like yourself"
Peaches grasped the flowers from the boy's hand before sniffing them from her trunk. "They're beautiful"
"You're beautiful" said Newt lovingly
Peaches blinked surprisingly. "What?"
"I mean…uhh…yes they're beautiful. They're so beautiful it makes you want to smell' em more" said Newt
"Well thank you. Say is that you're real voice?" Peaches asked Newt
"Why yes this is my actual voice. What about it?" said Newt
"It's just that…well…it's so smooth and it shows you're a good gentlemen. I like it" said Peaches
Hearing that comment from a mammoth, Newt blushed under his skin and looked away.
"I appreciate it love, I'm British by the way" said Newt thankfully
"British what's that?" Peaches asked about the word
"I still haven't got a bloody clue" Newt replied back
(BOTH LAUGHING)
As the two laughed Louis, who was still riding on her top-knot, noticed Peaches was talking to the tall skinny human. Frowning down the mole hog began to express the sign of jealously on his face feeling like he wasn't appreciated; he licked his palm and flipped his hair back.
"Oh a wise guy, eh?" Louis muttered
So smirking evilly, Louis hopped off of Peaches head. While Newt was noticing, the mole hog landed on top of the boy's head causing the boy to yelp in surprise before he fell backwards on the ground.
(NEWT GRUNTING)
(THUD)
Hearing the sound, Peaches looked back down when she noticed an innocent Louis walking next beside her.
"Oh hey Louis. Where's Newt?" said Peaches
"Oh he had to go on potty break. I need to do some exercising anyway" said Louis innocently
Newt stood back up on his bottom and he glared at the retreating form of the mole hog who was walking beside Peaches.
"Why you bloody little…! Two can play at that game!" Newt mumbled
Newt grabbed a small stone out of the ground and he aimed it at Louis. After getting a perfect shot, Newt pitched the stone and threw right at Louis when it bopped him from over the head.
(BOP)
"Oh!" cried Louis
Slapping his hands in success, Newt made his way back over as you picked up an unconscious Louis right off the ground.
"I hope you do bloody realize that 'this means war'?" Newt whispered to the mole hog before he threw him back up on Peaches back
Seeing the whole thing, Minho shook his head believing that his friend has fully lost his mind.
"Hey Minho" Rowan whispered getting the boy to look up. "What's up with Newt? He's acting all funny all of sudden"
"Oh I don't know if you got the love letter already, but Newt's fallen in love" Minho whispered back
"With Peaches?" Rowan asked surprisingly
"Believe me for all I know that kid's gone coo-coo in the head" Minho replied
Meanwhile Sid was chasing Lolo, her little hyrax friend along with Crash and Eddie as their game of tag still continued.
"I'm going to get you" Sid shouted cheerfully
"No you're not!" Crash and Eddie shouted back
(HYRAX CHITTERING PLAYFULLY)
While Kodak was traveling in a sour mood he heard playing and laughter that was starting to annoy him and he looked over when he saw Lolo and the possums were running straight towards him. Smirking under his mouth, Kodak held a foot out, and as Lolo came by she tripped over causing the girl to scream and land face first on the dirt.
(LOLO SCREAMS)
(THUD)
Ears perking up, Diego and Shira turned around when they saw Kodak had tripped Lolo as well as Sid, Crash, Eddie, Granny and her little hyrax friend noticed what happened.
Lying flat on her bottom, Lolo began to sniffle from her nose and tears started to swell from her eyes. Then she began to cry.
(LOLO CRYING)
(KODAK LAUGHING)
Kodak laughed down at the crying girl with mockery. "Nice face mask it looks good on you"
Just as Kodak turned around to leave he was suddenly tripped over by Diego, who had his paw in the way, as Kodak fell face first but this time only in mud.
(KODAK SCREAMS)
(SPLAT)
Kodak placed both hand on the ground and once he lifted himself off the ground his face revealed to be all covered in mud as the older boy began spitting some of it out of his mouth.
(SPITTING)
"Am I mortified? That's sabatogie that's what it is!" said Kodak angrily
Once Kodak got himself off the ground he glared at Diego who glaring back at him.
"Why you, what's the big idea!" Kodak yelled
But Diego's response was slapping Kodak upside the head with his paw.
(SLAP)
"Oh!" cried Kodak causing him to fall back over face first in the mud again.
(SPLAT)
(SPITTING)
Kodak angrily stood back up again and yelled, "Knock it off!"
Suddenly Granny came by and grabbed Kodak by the ear. "I'll knock your head off if you don't shut your yap. What do you think you're doing taking a spa treatment? C'mon!"
"OW! NO, NO, NO PLEASE! DON'T, OOOOOOWWWWW!" Kodak cried as he was being pulled away
(LOLO CRYING)
As Lolo continued to cry Shira came rushing over and the sabress tucked her limbs down along resting her body down as she began comforting the girl with a warm nuzzle to the shoulders.
(SHUSHING)
"It's okay baby don't cry. I'm here don't you worry" Shira reassured soothingly
Her little hyrax friend comforted her too as he sat by Lolo's side with support.
(HYRAX CHITTERING)
Shira nuzzled Lolo from the back down to the top of her neck and then over the shoulders purring out in delight. Lolo's crying started to lower down a little but she wasn't able to stop it.
(PURRING)
Soon Diego joined in to comfort Lolo as he head-locked the girl's head with his. Soon both sabers including a hyrax were all comforting the human girl with support. Suddenly Lolo finally started to calm down as she wiped the snot and tears from her nose and eyes and wiped her sleeve on the ground.
(SNIFFLING)
"Okay…(sniffling)…I'm better" said Lolo tearfully
Shira smiled warmly at her. "That's good"
(LICK)
Licking the girl's cheek lovingly, Lolo hugged the sabress back along with her little hyrax friend who joined in on the hugging. Once she released her arms around Shira Lolo grabbed Diego by the face and kissed him right on the cheek.
(KISS)
Diego wide-eyed in surprise before clearing his throat and looked away only to blush under his fur without Lolo or even Shira from noticing.
"We…umm…we better get moving" Diego suggested
Shira rolled her eyes as she allowed Lolo to ride on her back as the rest continued onward with their journey. Once the others managed to catch up with the rest they all came to a halt when they heard a rustling sound coming from the bush.
(BUSHES RUSTLING)
"What was that?" Ellie asked
"I don't know. Sounds like it came from over there" Manny pointed to the bushes
"I'll go check it out" Minho offered to do it
Slowly walking forward tensing with every step, Minho quietly reached out his pocket knife and held it out just in case something funny happens. As soon as he was up close the boy reached out a hand towards the bushes and as he uncovered the leafs a small mouse appeared as it scampered away.
(MOUSE SQUEAKING)
"Don't worry it's just a little…" Minho reassured
But all silence was broken when suddenly a great big white bear jumped out of the bushes landing on top Minho as the bear let out a loud ferocious roar.
(ROARING)
(MINHO SCREAMING)
(HERD SCREAMING)
Roshan's heart jumped when he recognized the bear.
"Iorek" said Roshan surprisingly
(ROARING CONTINUES)
While Roshan continued to stare, Manny plucked the boy from around the waist and he set him down next to his friends.
"EVERYONE STAY BEHIND ME!" Manny ordered
"LET'S DO THIS!" Diego roared
Manny and Diego stood ready to fight off the bear as Iorek stood guard protecting Minho.
"I have come for the children!" Iorek demanded
"You're going to have to get through us first!" Manny warned
(DIEGO GROWLING)
"So be it!" Iorek roared
(ROARING)
(DIEGO ROARING)
"Roshan help!" Minho cried out
Fearing things would get worst, Roshan quickly ran out and got in front of Manny, Diego and Iorek as he held his arms out to stop them.
"STOP!" Roshan shouted out
"Roshan get out of the way!" Manny cried out
"No don't! He won't hurt you!" Roshan reassured
"Kid get out of there, he'll kill you!" Diego yelled out
"No he won't!" Roshan yelled back
(ROARING)
Roshan turned back around as Iorek jumped on his hind legs and stood all the way up in a fighting position. Roshan quickly rushed forward and held his hands out to stop him.
"Iorek! Whoa, whoa, whoa, take it easy, take it easy! They're friends" Roshan shouted out
(ROARING CONTINUES)
"IOREK STAND DOWN NOW!" Roshan shouted
Iorek soon stopped growling and looked down at the boy. Telling by his face, Roshan didn't look like he was in any danger at all as well as his friends. Roshan rushed over to help Minho get up and when he did Minho felt his body shaking feeling like he was paralyzed. After calming down, Iorek hopped back on his four paws and made sure the two boys were alright.
"Roshan are you okay?" Iorek asked
"Yeah…Yeah I'm fine. What the hell are you doing out here?" Roshan demanded
"I came looking for you and your friends. You didn't return home yesterday and I knew I needed to find you" Iorek explained
"Well you didn't have to give me a heart attack!" Minho told the bear
Blinking surprisingly, Iorek looked at Roshan with astonishment. "Roshan…the boy…did he just-?"
Roshan nodded. "Yes, he can understand you. All my friends can"
"Impossible! How did you do it?" Iorek asked
"It's kind of a long…yet short crazy story" Roshan explained
As Roshan inaudibly began explaining to Iorek about everything that's happened to him and his friends over the past 24 hours, Diego noticed Kodak wasn't with the group of the kids before he caught sight of him running into the jungle.
Raising a brow, Diego turned over to Manny. "I'll be right back"
"Where are you going?" Manny asked questionably
"I've got a certain someone to settle with. I won't be long" Diego reassured before he went pacing into the jungle and after Kodak
