A/N

I was inspired by Tomadahawk to write this since Indo like the Rio movies but wished there was an eagle in them so came up with this idea, about Linda having an niece who has a pet eagle that she rescued and they're very close after she nursed him to health but they're living with Linda and Blu.

In this story, Brianna Gunderson, Linda's niece and her pet eagle Toma are living with her and Blu but Toma shares a very special secret with Brianna, which helps them adjust to the changes in their lives like Linda married to Tulio or Toma going through puberty but hope peopke especially Tomadahawk enjoy

I don't know if this will be one shots or a full story yet..

It was a cold, chilly day in Minnesota and a young girl with long mouse brown hair, slender but wearing a hooded top with jeans and boots because it was so cold out but she had been sent here to live with her aunt Linda as she was hearing gentle sounds from inside her jacket, feeling her pet eagle whom she'd named Tomada was nuzzling her because birds had a higher body temperature than humans.

"It's okay, I'll keep you warm, Bri." he said as they were there.

He wished he could talk to her and understand instead of squawking or screeching out of his beak but it was okay and like his owner Brianna because he cared about her a lot since she had found him two years ago, when he had hurt his wing, she had nursed him, fed him worms and cookie dough, sang to him so they were the t of friends.

He knew that he couldn't fly like normal eagle males, remembering the time he had went to the zoo with Brianna and the other Eagles had teased him, calling him a human's pet which had hurt him but Brianna had helped him out.

"Mmm, that stuff smells good, let's get some!" Toma said.

Brianna noticed he smelt the hot cocoa from the bookstore where her aunt worked but owned plus didn't mind other birds in there since Blu hung out there, knowing Toma was shy.

But that didn't matter to him, as he just wanted to be with Brianna as they entered the bookstore, but he saw that blue bird that belonged to Brianna's aunt wondering what he was doing.

"Hey Bri, I see you wanted to help, and you brought Toma!

Maybe he and Blu can be friends." Linda told her.

"How about it, Toma?

Wanna make friends?

You don't have to, if you're shy." Brianna told him.

She then found a lot of books all about Eagles seeing Toma get excited as Blu was curious about him but a little scared because he had read about Eagles but Brianna's eagle seemed shy and friendly so was peeking over seeing Toma cuddling on the girl's lap with the lamp casting a soft, securing glow.

"See Toma, boy Eagles can like girls, but it's okay if you don't wanna mate, I'd miss you." Brianna told him as Blu understood since learning to fly and everything had made Linda emotional plus soon, he would be going back to Rio so he could be with Jewel but saw Toma quiet.

"Um hey there, are you okay?" Blu asked surprising jim.

"H-Hi there Blu." Toma said not looking at him.

Blu saw a cast on the eagle's wing making him curious but knew it was rude to not just stare but also to ask.

"I got hurt a few months ago when Brianna found me, and she took me home, nursed me like feeding me warm milk and cookie dough but cuddled me when I got sad and had bad dreams about the bad guys who take birds from their homes.." the eagle explained softly.

"You were taken from your home, by poachers, Huh?" Blu said.

"Yes but I was a baby, but I'm now what humans call a teenage eagle, just like Brianna but she's the best thing ever.

Blu, can I ask a question?

Is it okay, to talk to Brianna?" Toma asked.

"I guess but be careful." Blu told him.

This made him perk up seeing Brianna back with snacks but she was surprised seeing Blu and Toma together making her happy.

"That's my boy, Toma." She said smirking.

"I know, Bri but Blu was helping." Toma told her making her amazed that her best friend could talk to her!

"This is so cool, but just you, or can Blu too?" Brianna asked.

"Yes but not to Linda, but it's a secret okay?

I wanted to do this for a long time, but was scared to in case you freaked out." Toma told her.

"I'm Eagle Girl remember?

I can keep the secret, if we can talk more." Brianna said as Toma was getting excited but Brianna sighed seeing Tulio there making Toma understand nuzzling her.

He knew that she would be starting middle school after winter break meaning during the day, Toma woukd be lonely until Brianna got home plus Blu was going back to Rio meaning he wouldn't have anybody to talk to.

Brianna saw Linda going with Tulio meaning they had the bookstore to themselves as she was getting hungry ordering pizza.
