Ice Age the Meltdown

Ch. 6

                                                                    Hope POV

I'm on Manny's tusk, as we walked across the Ice,

"Diego there are whole continents moving faster than you lets go! we need to catch up with the others," Manny said 

the opossums were having a blast, sliding and running around the ice just as happy as they could be,

"Hey, knock it off," Diego said 

"Oh, cry me a river blubber toothed tiger have some fun," Crash said 

"Can't you see the ice is thing enough already without you two wearing it down?" Diego said 

"Aww, come on Diego, the ice might be thing but it's strong enough to hold a 10 ton mammoth and a 9 ton opossum" Sid said 

suddenly something burst out of the water, 

"Hope run!" Manny said 

I hopped off his tusk running toward Crash Eddie and Ellie,

the water dweller jumped at Manny only to get caught on his tusks many then flung it that it flew back into the water 

I ran to them,

"Is everyone alright?" I asked 

Everyone nodded,

"What in the animal kingdom was that?" Sid said 

"I don't know but from now on, land safe water...not safe," Diego said and walked away everyone walked away 

"That was the bravest thing I've ever seen," Ellie said to Manny

"It was nothing really I..." Manny said 

"Oh it's not a compliment to a Opossum bravery is just dumb," Ellie said as she turned and started to walk away 

"Yeah were spineless," Eddie said 

"Lily livered," Crash said 

"Maybe mammoths are going extinct because they put themselves in danger too much maybe you should run away more" Ellie said 

"Good point, thanks for the advice!" Manny said sarcastically 

"Happy to help!" Ellie waves with her trunk

"Can you believe her!? Bravery is just dumb maybe you should run away more!" he mocked in a girl voice "She's infuriating stubborn and narrow minded," Manny said 

"You like her!" Sid said 

"I do not!" Manny said 

"Don't worry your secret is safe with me!" Sid said 

"Oh and so is yours," Sid said to Diego 

"What secret?" Diego said 

"You know the one where you can't swim," Sid said 

"That's ridiculous," Diego scuffed 

"Fine but we're living in a melting world buddy you're gonna have to face your fear sooner or later," Sid said as he marched off 

"Don't worry about him you know Sid," I said patting Diego in the side
