Ice Age: Life On Thin Ice

Chapter 4

As they continued on their trip towards Glacier Pass, it began snowing, covering the area with fresh snow.

Hazel noticed this and at first tried to ignore it, as they were on a mission and she resisted it the urge...

Everything became a blur when she ran into the snow, crashing into it and rolling over and over till she hit a nearby rock, letting out an "ow" when she made contact with it.

She shook her head and looked over to see the males looking over at her.

"Sorry!" She yelled out, jumping out of the snow and walking back towards them, shaking herself off. "Couldn't resist it."

"We can see that..." Diego nodded as they began walking again.

Hazel turned back to notice how far back Sid was. "Wow his pretty far."

"Yeah,." Manny mutters under his breath, seemingly ignoring the sloth who yelled for them to stop.

Hazel soon noticed Diego exchange a smirk to the mammoth, who surprisingly shared it back.
What were they thinking?

They soon stopped and let Hazel play for a bit, who immediately went head first into the snow, having way too much fun like a small cub would. When she noticed Sid finally catching up, she slinked her way beside Diego, and soon noticed the geyser.

"Phew." Sid panted. "Thanks for waiting." He lies down on the geyser, trying to catch his breath.

"Oh!"

Manny and Diego smirked at each other, "Three,"

Hazel decides to join in.

"Two, One." and moments later the geyser blew steam, sending Sid up in the sky, making his protests go silent.

"Sure is faithful." Manny comments as the three mammals began to walk away.

After landing back in the geyser, Sid got up and he finally caught up with them and he was given the baby to hold for a little while.

Only minutes later, Manny, Diego and Hazel heard the baby whine, and they turned their heads to see Sid and the baby poke each other which slowly became more aggressive.

"Don't make me reach back there!" Manny warned them.

"Yeah well he started it!!"

"I don't care who started it, I'll finish it!!"

Diego and Hazel meanwhile just tried to ignore it, cringing at Sid having a poke-fight with the baby.

Minutes later, and the poking began to get too serious and Hazel went over to carefully snatch the baby out if Sid's hands and handed him back to Manny before either one, especially the baby, end up hurt.

They all passed a stump that spewed out a red flame making them all stop, and an ice train passed them slowly. Moments after, a green flame spewed out, signalling the herd it was okay to continue.

The soon passed a ice rock that sat on the ledge, and whomever was the heaviest kept it down.

Hazel noticed Manny about to get off, unaware that Sid trailing behind him. She quickly clamped her mouth around his neck, catching him off guard as she raced off onto the ground below, immediately spitting him out, recoiling in disgust as the nasty taste lingered on her tongue.
