"OK!" Sid called down. "I'm gonna jump on the count of 3! One, Two..."

"Sid!" Manny yelled to his friend. "Don't move a muscle! We're coming up!"

The herd had other ideas.

"Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!" They chanted as they crowded around the eviscerator.

"Jump, jump, jump, jump!" Kiara chanted with them before Manny and Diego gave her a cross look.

"Sorry," she said quietly and followed the two up to where Sid was.

"Two and three one thousands. Two and four one thousands, two..."

"Sid! What are you doing? Get down from there!" Manny asked when they'd reached the sloth.

"No way!" Sid waved them off.

"I'm going to be the first to jump off the eviscerator. And then you guys are gonna have to start showing me some respect!"

"You jump off this and the only respect you're gonna get, is respect for the dead!"

"Come on Manny!" Diego started, giving Sid the benefit of doubt, "He's not that stupid."

But Sid proved otherwise.

"But, I've been wrong before!" He said before Sid leapt in the air, only to be caught by Manny's trunk.

The movement caused them all to slide down the icy slope, one piling on the other. Manny knocked into Diego, sending both the cats sliding over the frozen water.

"I can't breath!" Sid gasped as he pulled himself from under the mammoth. "I think I just coughed up my spleen!"

Over on the ice, Kiara used Diego to pull herself up to her feet, annoying the saber even more.

"Hey! Watch it!" He punched her shoulder. He did it lightly, but the sound was loud.

Kiara flinched. It sounded like a bone breaking, but she didn't feel any pain.

Immediately the cats looked to their feet just as the ice cracked. They shared a look and ran for solid ground as the ice behind them began cracking, revealing an ocean of cold water.

Both sabers jumped at the last second, and Diego ended up on Manny's trunk, digging his nails in to hold his grasp.

"Uh, Diego? Retract the claws please!"

"Oh, right, sorry!" Diego looked embarrassed and climbed down.

Kiara was beside the sloth, panting from her run to save her life.

"You know, if I didn't know you better Kiara," Sid came over with a teasing tone of voice. "I'd think you're afraid of the water!"

In a second, Kiara had her paw around Sid's neck, her teeth blaring in his face.

"Ok, Ok! Good thing I know you better!"

"Guys," Manny called their attention.

"Fast Tony was right. Everything is melting!"

The gang looked over to the area that had been flat ice before. Now, it was all water.

"It's all gonna flood!" Kiara noticed.

"Come on! We've gotta warn them." Manny said and turned around.

"Maybe we can rapidly evolve into water creatures."

"That's genius, Sid."

"Call me 'Squid'."

Squid followed after the gang as they made way to go back.

"Gees. This whole thing's a piece of junk! I can't believe I live here!"

He tested Mother Nature by jumping on the ice, and Mother Nature replied with a growl. The gang froze, and turned to look at Sid.

"What?" Was the only thing he got to say before the ice broke and they all involuntarily fell down the eviscerator, with Manny as the boat.

They came to a stop right before almost hitting Fast Tony, bodies cringing in anticipation. When she realized they weren't dead, Kiara quickly jumped off Manny.

"Wooh! Yeah." She punched Sid's shoulder, knocking him back down as he was trying to get up.

"Who's up for round two!?" She shut up when the gang gave her dead stares.

"Sorry."

"You see! This is exactly what I'm talking about! Giant balls of fury lava..."

Diego tuned him out as he watched Kiara walk by. He'd been just like that not too long ago. Maybe the girl wasn't that bad.

"Flood's real alright,"

Diego snapped out of it when a new, dark voice began speaking.

"And it's coming fast!" The vulture landed on a branch.

"Look around! You're in a bowl! Bowl's gonna to fill up, ain't no way out!"

"What are we going to do?!" Someone from the herd cried.

"Unless, you can make it to the end of the valley. There's a boat. It can save ya!"

"I don't see anything." One skeptic said.

"Fine. You all better hurry. Grounds melting, walls tumbling. rocks crumbing. Survive that, and you'll be racing through water! Coz in 4 months time, it's going to hit the geyser fields, Boom!"

The herd screamed, and someone fainted.

"There is some good news though! The more of you die, the better I eat!! I didn't say it was good news for you,"

And with that, he was off.

"He must have been a real pleasure to have in class!" Sid said to Kiara.

As if to make the vulture's point, a chunk of ice fell from the dam, breaking the water park.

"Alright! You heard the scary vulture." Manny gathered the herd. "Let's move out!"

Nobody needed to be told twice, and everyone began walking in the direction of the boat.

"Manny," Diego came up beside his friend. "Do you really think there's a boat?"

"I don't know. But in a few days, this place is gonna to be a mile under water. If there's any hope, it's that way."
