Ice Age2002

[As Sid finally sleeping perfectly, Manfred looked a Diego looked at Diego one last time and slowly closed his eyes, ready for the night. As Manfred drifted off to sleep, Diego popped open his eyes which turned green. He got up and padded silently toward Roshan. A twig snapped in the thick bushes nearby. Diego whipped around to look. Then he froze, holding his ears rigid and alert. But he didn’t see anything, and the night faded back to silence... except for Sid’s snoring. Manfred’s trunk unfurled a bit more as he slipped deeper into slumber. Sneaking closer, Diego saw that he could snatch Roshan out of Manfred’s trunk if he was careful enough. He took a few more steps until he was only a foot away. Another twig snapped in the underbrush nearby. Without waking up, Manfred curled up his trunk more tightly around Roshan. Diego’s green eyes glittered with annoyance. He slunk low to the ground, his ears pinned back against his skull as he snuck toward the bushes. The second Diego heard leaves rustling in the underbrush, he pounced. He landed on a tiger hiding in the bushes. Diego tackled the tiger, a sharp claw raised above the big cat’s throat.]

Diego:
What the–?

Zeke:
Go ahead, slice me! It'll be the last thing you ever do.

Diego:
I'm working here you waste your fur.

Oscar:
Frustrated, Diego? Tracking down helpless infants too difficult to you?

Diego:
What are you two doing here?

Oscar:
Soto's getting tired of waiting.

Zeke:
Yeah, Yeah, He said, "Come back with the baby… OR DON'T COME BACK AT ALL!" [laughs]

Diego:
Well, I have a message for Soto - Tell him I'm bringing the baby… and tell him I'm (also) bringing... a mammoth.

Zeke:
A mammoth?

Oscar:
Mammoths never travel alone.

Diego:
Well this one does, and I'm leading him to Half Peak.

Zeke:
Mmm... Look at all that meat. LET'S GET 'EM!

Diego:
Not yet! We'll need the whole pack to bring this mammoth down, get everyone ready. Now! [The tigers leaves, Diego look around and go back down to Manfred and Sid, and went back to sleep in his spot]
