Ice Age oc story

After the storm of the night before Faith and Manny had built a shelter to keep the rain off them. Though Faith usually sleeps on top of Manny since he's fluffy and warm. But soon the morning had come and she had been woken up by her brother Manfred.

"Come on, it's already morning you hopeless sleepyhead" he commented rubbing her head with his trunk. But she only groaned and tried to curl herself up in a ball more. He sighed and stood up as he started walking.

After an hour the fox finally awoke as she stretched slightly, Manny was still walking and they seemed to be going through a herd of animals at the moment. Most of the animals passing by though seemed to look at her and Manny curiously surprised that they were together being two different species.

She simply ignored the looks though as she began licking her paw cleaning herself a bit, then licked Manny's head a bit as he tensed up surprised that she was awake. "Well you're up, enjoy your sleep sleeping beauty?" He asked smiling as she giggled and nodded. "Yep!" She said grinning as he shook his head and his face fell back into a moody look.

Suddenly she heard some of the animals complaining as Manny walked through more. "Look out! You're going the wrong way" Crazy mammoth and fox" she heard as she frowned at their comments. Suddenly another animal had an angery out burst.

"Do the world a favor, move your issues off the road!" He exclaimed as she glared at the animal. Manny not liking it either gave him a dark glare as he met him at eye level. "If my trunk was that small, I wouldn't draw attention to myself, pal." Manny said angerily as the guy seemed to have shrinked back in slight fear.

"Give me a break. We've been waddlin' all day." He replied as I glanced at his wife and kids who looked at me curiously. "Go ahead. Follow the crowd. It'll be quieter when you're gone." Manny said as he continued walking again. "Come on. If they both want to freeze to death, let em." I heard him comment to his wife as they walked away.

As Manny kept walking we eventually stopped as I climbed off of him, as I was about to ask him something a sloth ran behind me and Manny, using us both as a hiding place. "Just pretend that I'm not here." He commented as I arched an eyebrow confused while Manny looked annoyed. That's when I noticed two rhinos walk up. "I wanted to hit him at full speed." One said as I looked at the sloth worried.

"That's OK. We'll have some fun with him." The other one said smirking as I felt the sloth cling to me while I had an uncomfortable look on my face. "Don't let them impale me, I wanna live!" He exclaimed fearfully as he clung tighter to me. "Get off her!" Manny yelled angerily as the sloth immediately let me go out of fear of Manny.

"Come on, you're makin' a scene." The first one said rolling his eyes. Does he not realise anyone in this situation would be terrified? "We'll just take our furry piņata and go." The other rhino said bluntly while I glared at them.

"Hey buddy, If it's not them today, it's someone else tomorrow." Manny said as I nodded in agreement. "Well, I'd rather it not be today. Okay?" He replied as I sighed. "Were gonna break your neck so you don't feel a thing, how's that sound?" "Still not a great offer if you ask me" I said as they ignored me.

"Wait a minute, I thought rhinos were supposed to be vegetarians?" Manny asked tilting his head as I nodded in agreement. "An excellent point." The sloth said positioning a finger upward. "Shut up." I quickly replied, because he really wasn't helping himself here. "Who says we're gonna eat him after we kill him" the first one said as my eyes narrowed angerily. Me and Manny absolutely understand when killing for food, but we hated when they killed for pleasure.

"You know, me and my sister don't like animals that kill for pleasure." Manny said angerily. "Save it, for a mammal that cares." The second one said replying as he had an unimpressed look on his face. "I'm a mammal that cares." The sloth said as I shook my head sighing.
