"Am I hallucinating or is that ice coming straight towards us?" Diego asked Manny as the iceberg started to get closwer int othe fog. Silver looked over and can see that she is hearing laughter on the ship.

"Yeah, yeah, it's coming. It sounds like there's animals on it," Manny realized.

Sid cheered, and started to dance. "Yippee! We're being rescued, we're being rescued!"

"I hear laughter," Diego guessed, believing he can hear that someone is on that ice.

"Must be a party cruise," Sid answered.

All of a sudden, giant hooks pierce the iceberg. Silver yelped in fear. tipping backwards. Something tells her those animals don't seem friendly. She grabbed Pip and jumped into the water.

"Silver, where are you going?" Manny asked her.

Silver didn't want to say it. She and Pip inhaled deeply and submerged into the water. The reason why the hooks pierced in the iceberg is that it was a ship. It was unlike any other they had ever seen. It had branches held by vines. It's ice was strong enough to hold someone. Eyes of unknown creatures whispered. From up on the highest branch was a person that was shaped like a monkey.

"Ahoy, down there! How lucky are you? You know these waters are infested with pirates. Right, boys?" The voices of many pirates roared. The figure begins to swing upon the branches and appears at last. He was a giant gigantopithecus with a captain's hat. "Glad we found you before they did. Captain Gutt, here to help."

"You know, that's a nice monkey," Granny grinned.

"Look, we don't want any trouble," Manny tried to tell the captian. "We just need to get back to the continent."

"The continent? That pile of rubble?"

Everyone laughed.

"My family's there, so if you could just..."

"Your family?" Gutt interupted him. "That is so sweet. I hope you said goodbye because there's no way back."

"Yes, there is," one of the crew members answered. "Don't you remember, Captain? You can sail to Switchback Cove and catch the current back from there. It's like a steel trap, this noggin is."

"See? I knew there was a way home," Manny assured the others.

"There is no home! There is only here," Gutt snarled. "And here, your ship belongs to me. Battle stations!"

The cannons begin to be set on each side of the boat swords and knives had been activate. The pirates crew were quite hostile. Gutt's companions were an elephant seal, a rabbit, a kangaroo, a warthog, a seagull, a badger and another smilodon.

"Fly the colors! Now surrender your ship or face my fury."

"Or face your furry what?" Sid asked confused.

"Not "furry." Fury! Fire!"

"Hit the mammoth, win a prize." The rabbit, Squint threw his swords right at the herd. The swords hits one of Manny's tusks.

"Fire the starboard cannons," ordered Gutt.

Raz started to fire ice balls from each cannon at the group. "I love this job!"

"Shira, fetch." Gutt called out to his lieutenant, a female white saber.

Diego snaps the ropes apart but Shira got to the last one before him. The female tiger purred gently.

"I don't fight girls," Diego growled.

Shira flings the rope at Diego and tackles him.

Meanwhile, Sid was running away, screaming just as Flynn body slammed the poor sloth.
