A/N: This is one of my first fanfics, so flamers, stay away! Also, I haven't watched the Rio movies in like, 3 years or so, so don't blame me if I get anything wrong. Just gently alert me in the review section.

Also, the Rio and Rio 2 movies belong to Blue Sky Studios.

Blu was stressed. Jewel had been missing for the past few days, and he was beginning to wonder if the vacation she had taken with Jez, his recently discovered sister, had taken a turn for the worse. But he couldn't leave. Raphael and Eva were out and having to take care of their kids, and he certainly couldn't leave his kids with Jewel's father. He wasn't sure whether the ordeal would leave him with more grey feathers than he had before. But, where was Jewel? She would certainly lose her head if he went to save her and leave the chicks in Tulio and Linda's care. Sure, they may deal with it, but what about Jewel? Ever since he had sworn to de-domesticate, she had been taking him less and less serious. After all, what kind of Spix Macaw drinks coffee in the morning, right?

But, he had to do something. Blu felt like he had to do something. So he told the kids about where he thought Jewel was, and quietly took them to the Sanctuary. They never spoke a word on the way. He left them there, asleep all in a pile, with a note next to them telling Linda and Tulio, the humans, to take care of them for Blu, as he went off.

And he was ready. Ready, with all his heart to fly off to find his beloved. Wherever she was, he would never let her go, for the fear of losing her again. And so began his new adventure.
