 Scrat Was Sniffing An Ice Cap, Looking For A Place Where His Would Be Safe. When Scrat Hits The Ice, It Starts To Crack, So To Prevent Trouble, Scrat Pushes Ice Back Into The Hole. When Scrat Merely Touches The Ice With The Tip Of His Acorn, It Ends Up Breaking The Entire Mountain Below The Ice Cap. Scrat Gets His Acorn And Falls Into The Rift, Passing By The Dinosaur World, Where Buck And Niko Is Mounting Their Dinosaur Nemesis, Rudy, While He Goes Down.

"Yee-haw!" Buck And Niko Shouted As Rudy Roared Towards The Distance.

Scrat Ended Up Passing Through All Of Earth's Layers, Eventually Arriving At The Metallic Sphere, Which Composes The Inner Core. While Pursuing His Acorn, Scrat Makes The Core Spin And Breaks Pangaea Into The Contemporary Continents, Creating By Making Their Necks Stretch While Africa Is Being Separated, And Making The Boot-shaped Italian Peninsula Kick A Nearby Island (Accompanied By A Scream Of "GOAL!") During Its Formation. Scrat Eventually trips And Starts Bumping Between The Sphere And The Solid Outer Core, Creating A Scrat-like Moai, A Scrat Sphinx (Which Loses Its Nose When It Falls Off), And 4 Scrat Faces On Mount Rushmore. Scrat Later Picks Up Balance And Grabs His Acorn, But Ended Up Spinning In The Core Until He's Thrown Out Of The Rift Into The Upper Atmosphere. While Falling, Scrat Positions His Body As If He Would Fall Into The Sea, But Ends Up Crashing On A Piece Of Ice, Which Breaks In Half, Separating Scrat From His Acorn. Scrat Then Proceeds To Scream In Frustration.

The Cracks Got Even More Bigger And The Rumbling Was Really Loud. It Was So Loud That It Even Managed To Wake Up A Familiar Brown Mammoth.

"Huh? What Was That? Ellie, Did You Hear That?" Manny Asked, Still Lying On The Ground.

"I Heard It, Manny. Whatever It Is, It's Miles Away." Ellie Answered.

Manny Got Up. "Peaches, Are You All Right?" He Asked, Getting Up And Found That Peaches Wasn't There. "Where Is She? No Teenager Is Ever Up Early."

"Whoa. Easy, Warden. She's Not On Lockdown." Ellie Stated, Chuckling.

Manny Had A Worried Look On His Face. He Walked Up To Two Sleeping Possums, Crash And Eddie. Manny Slapped Them. Making Them Wake Up And Get All Tangled Up.

"You Two Were Supposed To Be Responsible Uncles!" Manny Scolded.

"What? I Didn't See Peaches Sneak Off Maybe 15 Or 20 Minutes Ago." Crash Said.

"Or That She Went With Louis To The Falls." Eddie Added.

Crash And Eddie Chuckled, Nervously.

"The Falls? Where The Delinquents Go?" Manny Questioned, Suspiciously.

"Relax, It's Just Where The Kids Hang Out." Ellie Assured.

"No, No, It's A Getway Hangout. First, It's The Falls Then She's Piercing Her Trunk, And The Next Thing You Know She's Addicted To Berries." Manny Rambled.

Ellie Chuckled While Saying, "Manny! You Are Overreacting. She's Not Going To Be Your Little Girl Forever."

"I Know. That's What Worries Me."Manny Said.

***

Meanwhile, Peaches Were Swinging From One Tree Branch To Another. Heading Towards The Falls.

"Louis! Would You Get Your Head Out Of The Ground For Once And Try To Have A Little Fun?" Peaches Asked.

Louis Was Digging Through The Ground Until He Bumped Into A Tree Root. "Ow!" Louis Then Came Out Of The Ground. "I'm A Mole Hog. My Head's Supposed To Be Underground. And My Idea Of Fun Isn't Risking Death So You Can Meet Some Cute Mammoth."

"Ethan Isn't Cute." Peaches Said, Clumbing Down The Tree. "He's Hot. Besides, You Can't Your Whole Life Playing It Safe."

"I Know I Would."

"Dad?" Peaches Questioned As Manny Glared At Her. "There's No Reason To Be Mad."

"You Know How I Feel About You Going To The Falls. Especially Alone." Manny Explained.

Louis Cleared His Throat And Said, "She's... Uh, Not Alone, Sir."

"You Don't Count Weiner." Manny Said.

"Yes, There's My Place And You Just Put Me In It, Thank You." Louis Commented.

"Come On, Young Lady. We're Going Home Where I Can Keep An Eye On You." Manny Demanded.

Peaches Gave Louis An Apologetic Smile.

"So, Should I Just Wait Here, Or..." The Ground Started To Rumble Again, Scaring Louis. "Huh?" Louis Then Went Back Underground.

***

Diego And Luna, Who Was An Adult, Went Up A Cliff, Overlooking The Valley. Luna Leapt Up On A Rock And Diego Followed Suit, Leaping Between Rocks Until They Reached Overhang Watching The Mountains And Clouds. The Ground Shook Again And It Appeared As Through The Trees Below Them Shaking As Well.

Diego And Luna Smirked And Roared Loudly, Making The Ground Stop Rumbling.

"Yeah, You Don't Scare Us, Mother Nature! There's Nothing You Can Throw At Us That We Can't Handle!" Diego Shouted.

"You Have To Admit, I Been Doing Good On My Tracking Skills." Luna Stated.

"You Have Been Doing Good. Keep This Up, And You Just Might Be As Good As Me." Diego Commented.

Small Screams Could Heard Behind The Two Sabers. They Turned Around To See A Giant Log Hurdling Towards Them. Diego And Luna Yelped But The Log Hit The Both Of Them. They Clung To The Front In Fear As They Heard Voices Above Them Start Speaking. On The Log Were Five Sloths.

"I Think We're Almost There!" A Female Sloth Said.

"We Better Be! I Just Lost The Steering." A Male Sloth Stated.

"Has Anyone Seen Precious? It's Her Feeding Time." An Old Lady Asked.

"Mom! Granny's Talking About Her Dead Pet Again." A Young Male Sloth Complained.

"Hey, Paws Up, Everybody!" The Third Male Yelled.

"Paws Down, Uncle, Please! That Is Nasty!" The Young Male Said, Covering His Nose.

"Be Careful, Milton! You're Going To Hurt Somebody!" The Female Snapped At Her Husband.

Diego Managed To Claw His Way Up To Get A Better Grip On The Log While Luna Still Remained Her Claws On The Wood.

"Bad Kitty!" The Female Said As She Smacked Diego's Face.

"ROCK!" The Teenaged Sloth Screamed.

The Sled Hit The Rock At Full Speed And Diego Was Launched Over The Back And Into Granny, Who Was Tied Up. Luna Was Knocked Off, Into The Powdery Snow Which She Rolled In Before Scrambling To Her Feet To See Her Brother Figure Fly Over A Cliff, Saved By The Vines Attached To Him. Luna Took Off To Try To Catch Up The Sled.

***

Peaches And Manny Were Talking About What Happened Earlier.

"Okay, So Tell Me. When Exactly Will Be Allowed To Hang Out With Boys?" Peaches Asked.

"When I'm Dead, Plus Three Days. Just To Make Sure I'm Dead." Manny Answered As He Walked Off While Peaches Rolled Her Eyes At Her Father.

Unknown To Them, The Log Was Headed Towards Them.

Diego Dragged Himself Towards The Log, So He Could Tell The Sloths To Stop. In The Distance, He Saw Peaches. He Jumped And Grabbed Onto A Tree, Hoping He Could Stop The Log.

Peaches Looked To The Side, Only To See A Log Full Of Sloths Going Straight Towards Her. She Screamed And Crouched Down As The Sloths Flew Over Her Head And Landed On Manny. Peaches Gently Tapped It So That It Fell To The Ground.

Luna Came Running Towards The Scene.

"Peaches, You Okay?" Luna Asked, Feeling Concerned.

"Don't Worry, Aunt Luna. I'm Fine." Peaches Assured.

Manny Was On The Ground With The Sloths All Over Him.

"Manny, Are You Okay?" Ellie Asked.

He Slowly Stood Up, Making All Of The Sloths Fall Of Him. Except One.

"Get Off..." Manny Said Before Ripping Off The Sloth Off Of His Trunk. "My Face!"

Manny Dropped The Sloth On The Ground. The Sloth Laughed A Little And Lifted His Head, Only To Come Face To Face With Two Angry Sabers.

"That Was Fun." Luna Stated, Sarcastically, Scaring The Green Sloth.

"Now, Who Should We Eat First?" Diego Asked.

Diego Unsheathed His Claws And Cut The Vines, Making Granny Fall To The Ground. Then, Diego Started To Take Threatening Steps Towards Him And Put His Paw On The Sloth's Throat, Making Him Scream While Diego Growled.

"Uncle Fungus! Could That Really Be You?" Sid Shouted. In The Crowd, Sid Was Pushing Some Of The Animals For A Closer Look, Much To Their Dismay. "Sorry, Sorry." When Sid Saw The Sloths, He Gasped And Had A Huge Smile On His Face.

"Mom! Dad!" Sid Exclaimed As He Ran Up To Hug His Parents And His Little Brother. "Marshall!"

"Hey!" Granny Shouted.

"Granny?" Sid Asked, Regconizing The Voice.

"This Pumpkin's Ripe For Picking!" Granny Said, Poking The 'Pumpkin' Which Turned Out To Be A Beaver.

"Oh, My Whole Family!" Sid Said, Hugging His Parents.

"See? He Still Hugs His Parents." Manny Told His Teenaged Daughter As She Rolls Her Eyes.

"Are You Believing Any Of This, By Any Chance?" Luna Muttered To Diego.

"They Smell Just As Bad As Him So I Guess That's Enough Proof." Diego Said, Quietly.

The Two Sabers Chuckled Before Joining The Mammoths

"I Never Thought I'd See My Little Baby Again. We've Been Searching Everywhere For You." Eunice Explained While Pinching Sid's Cheeks.

At The Corner Of Luna's Eyes, She Saw Peaches Sneaking Away. She Smirked And Stayed Quiet.

"You Have?" Sid Asked Before He Grabbed Marshall For A Hug. "I Knew It, I Knew It! Deep Down, I Knew I Wasn't Abandoned!"

Marshall Pulled Away From The Hug And Said, "That's Incorrect. We Totally Abandoned You."

"But..." Started Eunice As She Kicked Marshall Away. "We Always Missed You. Right?!"

She Looked At Her Husband For Support And Slapped Him.

Milton Eyes Widened As He Said, "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. And We Just Knew Sid Would Want To See His Poor, Dear Granny Before Her Time Is Up."

Everyone Looked At Granny To See Her Pointing Her Walking Stick At Them And Said Angrily, "I'll Bury You All And Dance On Your Graves."

"So Frail." Milton Said.

Luna Just Gave Them A Weird Look And Whispered To Diego, "I Think I See Where Sid Got His Weirdness From."

"It's No Surprise That His Family's Even Weirder." Diego Said.

Luna Hummed In Agreement.

"And She Can't Wait To Spend Time With You, Sid." Eunice Explained.

"Oh, Yeah." Milton Assured And Looked Around For Granny. "Granny? Granny!"

Marshall Was Burning Some Ants From An Ant Hill While Granny Was Burning Marshall's Hair. Marshall Sniffed And Granny Started To Laugh.

"OW!" Marshall Exclaimed As He Rubbed His Head.

"Granny." Milton Gently Scolded As He Walked To Her And Took Her Away.

"I Never Get To Have Any Fun."Granny Complained.

"I Like Her. She Has Spunk." Luna Said, Smirking.

"Of Course You Would." Diego Said.

"Why Don't You Show Her Your Cave? Yeah, She Could Use A Nap." Milton Suggested.

Sid Took Granny's Hand Started To Walk Her To His Cave.

"Boy, There's So Much To Tell You. A Lot Has Happened Since The Last Time I Saw You." Sid Said.

"Not Interested." Granny Said, Sounding Really Bored.

"But, We Fought Dinosaurs In The Ice Age. It Didn't Make Sense But It Sure Was Exciting." Sid Stated.

Sid And Granny Went Behind A Rock And Disappeared From Sight. Then, Sid's Family Began To Cheered And Got Back Into The Log Again. 

"We Got Rid Of The Crazy Bat! Let's Go!" Milton Exclaimed.

Everyone Got On The Log While Milton Started To Push It.

Then, Manny Stepped In Front Of The Log.

"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa! You Can't Just Leave. Sid Will Be Crushed!" Manny Said.

When The Log Started To Mave Again, Manny Stepped Out Of The Way.

"Sorry, Cookie. Things Are Breaking Aprat Back Home." Eunice Explained.

"How Are You Going To Tell Sid?!" Luna Asked.

"We're Not!" Marshall And Fungus Answered.

"So, We're Headed Inland. And Granny Is Just Dead Weight." Milton Said, Still Pushing The Log.

"See Ya!" Eunice Said.

"Mush! Mush!" Milton Urged And When It Started To Move, He Sat On The Log While Yelling, "And Warn The Community; She Tends To Wander!"

Manny, Ellie, Diego And Luna Just Looked Where Sid's Family Used To Be.

"Well, That Explains A Lot About Sid." Diego Said.

"And I Thought Both My Pack And My Big Sister Were Bad, But They Take The Cake." Luna Said.

"Mom, Dad, Do You Have Granny's Teeth? She Can't Find Them." Sid Asked.

The Two Sabers And Two Mammoths Turned Around To See Sid With Granny By His Side. Granny Was Trying To Eat And Apple, But Just Covered It Saliva.

"Hey! Can You Chew This Thing For Me?" Granny Asked, Lifting The Saliva Covered Apple To Her Oldest Grandson.

Sid Looked At The Apple In Disgust And Kept Searching For His Parents.

"Guys? Where Is Everyone?" Sid Asked.

"I'll Handle This." Diego Said, Softly. Sid Smiled At Diego, Which Made It Even Harder. "Sid? Uh... Your Family Was Wiped Out By An Asteriod. Sorry."

"What?!" Sid Exclaimed In Despair.

"Diego!" Luna Scolded While Shoving The Male Saber As He Glared At Her.

"What Diego Is Trying Is... They Left. They Only Wanted You So You Could Take Care Of Granny." Manny Said, Solemny.

"Oh, Come On! What Kind Of Sick Family Would Just Ditch Their Whole Granny On Someone? That's Just Crazy. That's Just... That's Just... My Family." Sid Said, Sadly.

"Hey, Look On The Bright Side: You Don't Need Them." Luna Stated, Trying To Cheer Him Up.

"Well, At Least You Still Have Granny. Right, Buddy?" Diego Asked.

"Yeah, Granny." Sid Smiled And Looked To The Side, Expecting To See Granny. "Granny? Granny!"

Everyone Looked Around, But No Sign Of Her.

"Wow. For An Old Girl, She Moves Fast." Ellie Commented.

"Your Father Wasn't Kidding When He Said She Tends To Wander." Luna Added.

***

In The Snowy Fields, Sid, Manny, Diego And Luna Were Searching For Granny.

"Granny!" Sid Shouted.

"Granny!" Diego Yelled.

"Granny?" Manny Hollered.

"Granny, Where Are You?!" Luna Exclaimed.

"Come Out, Come Out Wherever You Are!" Sid Said.

"Come On, Granny." Manny Urged.

"Here, Granny, Granny, Granny. I Have Prunes For Ya! Just The Way You Like Them!" Sid Called Out.

Sid Pukes Out The Prunes And Into His Paw.

Luna, Diego And Manny Looked Away In Disgust.

"I Don't Wanna See That." Manny Complained. Then, Manny Noticed Something In The Distance.

"Huh?" Manny Asked.

He Saw Peaches And Louis Probably Walking Towards The Falls.

"Oh, No." Manny Said In Disapproval.

***

While Manny Was Going After Peaches, Sid And The Two Sabers Were Still Searching For Granny.

"Hey, Do You Guys Think That Manny Is Being A Little Bit Paranoid With Peaches?" Sid Asked.

"Sid, When Is Manny Not Being Paranoid Is The Real Question." Luna Said.

"Manny Is Just Has To Accept The Fact That Peaches Is Growing Up And That She's Not Going To Be His Little Girl Forever." Diego Explained.

"Like How You Had A Hard Time To Accept The Fact That Luna Was Growing Up And She's Not A Little Cub Anymore?" Sid Taunted.

Diego Blushed In Embarrassment While Luna Laughed At Him.

"At Least I Learned To Accept It. Besides, She'll Always Be A Little Sister To Me." Diego Said, Playfully Nudging Luna.

"At Least You Were Easy Going, Trusted Me To Make The Right Decisions And Let Me Have Fun With Some Friends Who Were Around My Age. Manny Hardly Ever Let Peaches Have Fun, Trusts Her Or Let Her Go Hang Out With Mammoths Her Age." Luna Stated.

"I'm Sure Manny Will Stop Overreacting And Worrying." Sid Assured.

"Sid, It's Manny. He'll Never Worrying." Diego Pointed Out.

"Peaches, Come On! Let's Talk About This!"

Luna, Sid And Diego Turned Around To See Manny Trying To Talk To Peaches, Who Looked Furious.

"How Could You Embarrass Me In Front Of My Friends?!" Peaches Asked, Angrily.

"What Did Manny Do?" Sid Asked His Niece, Who Was Still Glaring At Her Father.

"He Grounded Me At The Falls In Front Of Everybody!" Peaches Answered.

"Why?" Diego Asked.

"Because She Deliberately  Went Where You Weren't Suppose To." Manny Said.

"Manny, She's A Teenage! She's Capable Of Making Her Own Decisions. You Don't Always Have To Have Her By Your Side And Have To Be So Harsh On Her." Luna Stated.

"I Don't Need You To Tell Me How To Be A Parent. It's Not Like You Had A Family." Manny Snapped.

Luna Quietly Gasped As Tears Starts To Form In Her Eyes.

"Manny!" Diego Said, Sternly As He Put His Leg Around Luna.

"You Don't Need To Bring Auntie Luna Into This. She's Right. You Can't Control My Life!" Peaches Exclaimed.

"I'm Trying To Protect You! That's What Father's Do!" Manny Stated.

"Well," Peaches Turned Around To Look At Manny. "I Wish You Weren't My Father."

Manny Looked At Her Shocked And Hurt.

Peaches Turned Around And Walked Away As Ellie Walks Up To Them.

"She's Just Upset, Honey." Ellie Explained And Turned To Her Teenaged Daughter. "Peaches! It's Not The End Of The World."

Then, The Ground Started To Shake And Rumble.

'Whoa. Excuse Me." Sid Apologized While Patting His Stomach.

"I Don't Think That Was You." Diego Said.

"Yeah. It's Not Even Close To Being You." Luna Stated.

Suddenly, The Ground Cracked That Seperated Manny, Sid, Diego And Luna From Ellie And Peaches.

"What Was That?" Ellie Asked, Feeling Uneasy.

"I Don't Know. Stay There. I'll Come To You." Manny Said.

Manny Made His Way Towards Ellie, Trying To Be Cautious About The Crack, But Before He Could Reach Her, The Crack Got Worse And Caused Manny's Side To Forcibly Separate From Ellie's.

Seeing This Happen, Manny And Ellie's First Instinct Was To Lock Trunks And Keep Each Other From Moving Away Any Further.

Meanwhile, Sid's First Instinct Was To Cling Onto Diego And Luna Out Of Fear.

"Ellie!" Manny Yelled.

"Manny!" Ellie Exclaimed.

Sadly, Manny And Ellie's Strategy Was Only Temporary As The Crack Split More Apart And Forced Them To Let Go Of Each Other.

Peaches Saw What Was Going On And Ran Next To Ellie.

"Dad!" Peaches Yelled.

"Peaches, Get Back!" Manny Shouted. 

The Ground On His Side Roughly Shifted Upwards And Caused Him To Slide Back. He Then Tried To Run And Get Back To Ellie And Peaches' Side, Which Was Getting Farther And Farther By The Second.

"Hurry, Dad! Hurry!" Peaches Yelled.

Unfortunately, Manny Didn't Make It On Account Of Diego Knocking Him Over Before He Can Even Jump Over The Crack.

"Diego!" Manny Scolded, Fumed Over His Actions.

"You Never Would Have Made It!" Diego Explained.

Manny Tried Standing Up Again, Only For Small Pieces Of The Platform To Fall Into The Gap, Which Was So Deep That The Ocean Could Be Seen At The Bottom.

Not Only That, The Entire Area On Manny's Side Started To Completely Fall Apart And Things Were Only Getting Worse From There.

"Ellie, Behind You!" Manny Called Out, Spotting A Giant Wall That Started To Form On Ellie And Peaches' Side.

"What's Happening?" Peaches Asked, Freaking Out.

Looking Around For A Solution, Manny Looked To The Right And Noticed An Ice Bridge In The Distance.

"Go To The Land Bridge! You'll Be Safe On The Other Side!" Manny Stated.

"No, Manny! No!" Ellie Reached Out To Him.

"I'll Meet You There!" Manny Told Ellie Just As The Ice Platform Shifted Upwards Again.

This Time, The Two Sabers And Sid Lost Their Balance And The Three Of Them Were Tossed Backwards.

Diego And Luna Used Their Claws To Not Completely Slide Off The Platform.

Sid On The Other Hand Had To Grab Onto A Tree To Avoid Going Any Further. But Grabbing It Gave Him A Terrible View And Made Him Realize That They Were About To Fall Right Into The Ocean.

"Manny! No!" Ellie Cried Out Again.

"Ellie, You Have To Get Out Of Here! Go! Go Now!" Manny Told Her.

The Ice Platform Eventually Reached The Ocean, Bringing Him, Diego, Sid, And Luna Along With It.

They All Thankfully Survived However, And Are Brought Back To The Surface, But That Was Only To See The Final Large Pieces Of The Platform Land Into The Water.

"Mom!" Peaches Exclaimed.

"Get Back! Get Back!" Ellie Demanded.

The Force Of How They Landed Caused The Ice Platform To Be Pushed Away By A Wave Deeper Into The Ocean, Completely Separating The Herd From The Others.

Peaches And Ellie Watch On As Manny, Sid, Diego, And Luna Floated Away Into The Water, With Peaches Tearing Up.

"Daddy!" Peaches Yelled.

Hearing Her Voice, Manny Looked At His Wife And Daughter.

"Stay Alive! No Matter How Long It Takes, I Will Find You!" Manny Shouted.

"Mom, This Is All My Fault. If I Had Just..." Peaches Said Before She Started Crying.

"Peaches! This Is Not Your Fault, Okay?" Ellie Asked.

"What If I Never See Him Again? And The Last Thing We Did Was Fight!" Peaches Stated.

"Hey, Your Father Is The Toughest Most Stubborn Mammoth I've Ever Met. He'll Come Back For Us. That's A Promise." Ellie Assured As She Pulled Peaches In For A Hug To Comfort Her.
