...Rio of The Dead...

Staring

Hyrum The Outcast, Alex The Owl, Tomadahawk, Sorrelwing, Jameson The Owl & Arlene The Scarlet Macaw

The time has come for me to give Rio of The Dead's first chapter life. There is a lot of thank you's to give out so why don't I'll just tell you them at the end. So without further a due I give you Rio of The Dead.

Hyrum yawned and stepped out of his nice mango tree leaf nest. He walked into the living room of the hollow to find Jameson watching South Park on the TV.

"Hey Hyrum, Alex went out to get some food for tonight, Tomada didn't tell me where he went." Jameson informed. Hyrum observed the TV screen

"Tomada's probably with Sorrel. Also answer the phone while I'm gone today," Hyrum stopped when he remembered what episode that was playing was. "I love this one, Timmy starts a taxi business-" Jameson cut him off

"Don't spoil it for me!" He said. Hyrum nodded

"Well I'm off to work, now don't forget to answer the phone." Hyrum repeated

"Got it." Jameson replied

"I'll be back in four hours!" Hyrum called as he flew out of the hollow. As he flew to his job a a Brazil Nut grove , he saw a Green-winged Macaw fall mid flight and plummet to the ground motionless. Wow, I've never seen somebody that high before, that's not a complement guy. Hyrum thought's were dericted to the Green-winged Macaw. Hyrum didn't bother asking if the Macaw was okay or not. After all to him it was the Macaws own fault. When he arrived at The Nut Grove market he went to his post and sat down on a branch from a Star Fruit tree. He started to doze in the warm sunlight as he waited until a elegant female Scarlett Macaw flew up. She placed the nuts on the table below the branch.

"Hello, uhh.. sir? can I purchase these fruits?" She said as Hyrum flew down.

"Yes you can, what's your name? Mine's Hyrum." He said

"My names Arlene, now how much for these..." Arlene stuttered

"Grape fruit." Hyrum finished with a strange look at her, Arlene blushed turning her red feathers even redder.

"Sorry, I'm not from here. So I don't know the foods that well." She explained

"Don't worry mostly everyone I know is not from here, including myself." Hyrum said

"Well I got to dash" Arlene said and picked up the grape fruit. She was about to take off into the indigo blue sky when Hyrum said:

"I know someone who'll be perfect for you." Arlene turned around as if that phrase stopped her thought.

"I guess I'll see ya around Hyrum. Oh and you got red on you." She waved good-bye and flew off. Hyrum looked down to in fact see red juice on his white chest feathers.

"Damn star fruit juice!" He yelled as he looked up.

"You should hit that." A voice said from behind the star fruit tree. Hyrum turned around to see a snow owl with a very soft looking belly standing there. He sighed as it Alex not a creepy pervert.

"Why? I'm and owl she's a macaw. I don't think were compatible." Hyrum said and blushed at the thought, Alex laughed

"Look who has a crush!" He said. Hyrum shot him a glare

"It's not that it's just..." He blushed harder making his oak-wood colored feathers on his face look almost maroon. "You know how weird that will look? It's crazy." Hyrum defended himself.

"What about Tomada and Sorrel? He's a falcon she's a macaw." Alex pointed out. Hyrum sighed

"Fine I'll talk to her soon." he said

"That's the Hyrum I know!" Alex patted his shoulder with his wing, "See you when you get home pal!" Alex called as he flew away. Hyrum's shift went uneventful after that. Except for two Military Macaw's talking about some new virus, but Hyrum didn't care.
As he flew home, Hyrum saw two Red-Billed Macaw's lying on top of each other and biting their necks. Hyrum stopped and said:

"Hey guy's, please do this in a hollow not in public." They didn't answer so he flew away. Right as he did so the one on top snapped the other ones neck clean open and blood sprayed out of the body like water out of a punctured hose.
Wen Hyrum arived home, Tomada had his wings around Sorrel as she whispered

"What are we going to do?" Tomada leaned down and said something too soft for even a Barn Owl to hear. Jameson sat on the couch the new's turned on. The screen read: Breaking New's Zombie Outbreak!

"Guy's I'm here" Hyrum said as he observed the room.

"Hey Hyrum!" Sorrel said.

"SHHHHHHH!" Jameson yelled as the new's guy spoke: I repeat there's only two way's to kill them; remove the head or destroy the brain.

"Where's Alex?" Hyrum asked. when he noticed he was the only one not there.

"He's in his room" Tomada said and pointed towards a door in the left hand side of the living room.

"Got it" He replied. Then the new's man spoke again: Get to somewhere safe and stay there.

"Hyrum get your sword you to Tomada, Sorrel get your ecos and I'll get my baseball bat." Jameson said

"Why?" asked Alex as he walked in

"Were making this place a fortress." Jameson said as he picked up his baseball bat.

"I have a safer place." Alex said

"Where?" Hyrum said as he walked in fully armored.

"Arlene's place." Alex snickered

"Here's your sword Hyrum!" Tomada said as he passed it to him

"Thanks Tomada! I haven't touched this thing in ages!" Hyrum breathed

'That's what she said!" Sorrel yelled her ecos now hovering above her pretty blue face.

"Yeah right Sorrel, I bet you say that to Tomada." Hyrum replied Sorrel looked down. Alex gazed at him sharply

"Now's not the time to discuses virginity, Hycum!" Alex laughed

"Enough!" Jameson barked, "Time to go to Arlene's place!" Everyone nodded and took off into the sky.

"Look's like we have zombies ahead." Tomada said when he spotted them flying awkwardly.

"Well guys prepare of a fight" Alex said...

Well what a start, looks like getting to Arlene's place is going to be harder than first envisioned. Till the next chapter Hyrum out...
