Ice Age: The Meltdown

Chapter 3

"Okay, come on!  Keep it moving!" Manny loudly called out to the mammals.

Hazel stood beside as she looked out to the mammals who all walked up towards the end of the valley. There sure were a lot of animals, and with the time limit been three days, she hope that there is a boat at the end of the valley, and if there was, if it was big enough for everyone. The thought alone made her shiver.

"Manny!!" She shook the thoughts out and along with Manny turned to see Sid racing up holding blueberries in his hands eating in a messy manner. "Manny I heard you're going extinct!"

She just rolled her eyes with a frown as he stuffed his face with the berries.

"Hey." Diego walked up beside him. "If you ever master hygiene, try working on sensitivity."

"I'm not going extinct!!" Manny remarks at Sid just as the anteater from before walked by with his kids.

"Hey kids look," He comments, stopping in front of the group; "the last mammoth."

The kids all looked in amaze, letting out a harmonized "wow,"as they stared up at him.

"Well, you probably won't see another one of those again!" He says as he begins to leave. Hazel watched him leave with a glare, trying to hold herself back from attacking him.

"See?" Sid comments in regards to the family.

"Sid," Hazel began lowly. "Before meeting Diego, I always thought I was the last saber... it took quite some self-convincing that I'm not the last saber."

"Your point?" Diego butts in, hearing his name mentioned drew him to the comment.

"We may not have seen another mammoth for a long time.," She looked over at Manny with a smile; "I'm certain there's one out there somewhere..."

Manny just stared at her with an unsure look before he turned his attention back to the mammals to direct them towards the boat.

"Your comforts need a bit of work." Diego lowly comments, getting her to look over at him.

"You know I'm trying." She replies back.

"I know that," He replies quickly, "but it's not the most reassuring comment..."

"Now now Diego." Sid began towards the male saber. "She did try..."

"At least she has sensitivity." Diego remarks lowly.

Hazel sighs heavily, looking up at the mammoth. He doesn't need comments about been the last one of the mammoths, since it'll mean he would never get a second chance on finding a mate to be happy with, let alone be a father again.

The herd soon began walking when it seemed like the villagers were up ahead and walked in silence...

"Some daaaay~ When you've gone extiiiinct... when, you, maake a stiiink~"

"Shut up Sid." Manny lowly comments to Sid.

"Okay."

———

Some time has passed and they were all walking up on hills during the night, and at this point in time, Sid went for another round.

"Stop, hey hey! What's that souuund? All the mammoths in the grouuunnnd~"

"Stop singing Sid!!"

———

Another bit of time had passed since then, and Sid still hadn't gotten the message.

"If your species will continue, clap your hands," Sid claps his hands; "If your speci-"
