Hey guys!

So… After watching the most recent MLP: FiM episode, called 28 Pranks Later, where Rainbow Dash gets a taste of her own medicine after every pony in Ponyville has had enough of her pranking spree. I thought of an idea for a short story, where instead of RD, it would be Tiago.

You can probably guess what will happen, that is if you watched the episode!

So without further ado, lets get to it!

Chapter 1: The Pranking Begins

It was nighttime in Rio de Janeiro, the city lit up as bright as daytime, and even at this hour, people were enjoying their life, at dance clubs and bars. Everywhere in the city, it was nonstop partying as noise filled the air. The same cannot be said of the forests just bordering the city as while the humans were up and awake, the animals of the forest, such as the many kinds of macaws were mostly asleep with their families and mates.

Except for one toucan, who was coming back from a busy day in Nico and Pedro's samba club. This specific toucan was flying through the forest as fast as he can, hoping his mate wouldn't be mad at him for coming so late, but yet again, he was certain his many chicks would just pile up on him.

"I hope Eva's not mad at me." The toucan named Rafael said as he flew through the ever darkening forest, little to no sound as he flew silently onward.

As Rafael flew on, the forest became more scary, but the toucan was used to this and didn't expect anything less. However something would happen that would fright the living daylights out of the toucan. As Rafael still has yet to reach home, he thought he saw something move behind the trees, going just as fast as he was.

"What was that?" Rafael said out loud as he heard rustling of branches.

As Rafael looked around him, he thought he saw something that was unusual for the forest and he now became a bit scared. The mysterious figure showed itself for a second and Rafael was pretty sure it was something like a big predatory bird and then the figure disappeared.

"Probably my imagination, better hurry home." Rafael said.

As he turned in the direction of home the figure suddenly showed itself, appearing in front of Rafael and in the shadows. To Rafael, it was the most frightening thing he ever saw for it had huge wings and a big body.

"Ahhh!" Rafael screamed. "Please don't eat me! I have a family!" Rafael started shaking in midair.

Suddenly, instead of charging down and going to take a bite out of the toucan, the figure flew out from the shadows, laughing happily and holding onto his belly with his wings. Rafael opened his eyes to see it was a very familiar Blue macaw chick, with huge cardboard wings strapped to his own wings, as well as a paper body hung on his body to make him look bigger, the chick was laughing his head off at his prank he pulled.

"Got you uncle Rafi!" The Blue macaw chick named Tiago chuckled loudly.

"Tiago!" Rafael replied in anger. "That wasn't funny!"

"It was funny for me and besides you didn't get hurt." Tiago still continued laughing.

"What are you even doing out here this late?" Rafael asked. "I thought Blu and Jewel should have put you to sleep by now."

"Well, they don't sleep with me and they are just to into their mushy stuff for them to notice me gone." Tiago replied. "And you know, making me look bigger was well worth the effort and time, you should look at your face."

Rafael's cheeks went red with embarrassment at being scared by such a prank. He just decided to ignore Tiago and flew on home without another word to the little chick. Tiago just stayed where he was, still laughing because his prank worked so well. After Tiago shook off the costume and he put his feathers back in place, he, himself, flew back home, hoping that his parents, Blu and Jewel, wouldn't have noticed him gone.

As Tiago saw his family's birdhouses in view, he was thankful that he didn't see his parents outside, waiting to punish him for going out so late at night without their supervision. Tiago flew down as quietly as he can and stepped on the wooden platform in front of the birdhouses with a silent thud of talons hitting wood. He opened his birdhouse door and thought he was completely clear of punishment, but he was met by the stern glare of his mother's eyes.

Jewel noticed that Tiago was gone after checking up on him, and when she didn't see him, she knew right already what the little birdie was up to. So she stayed in her son's birdhouse until he came back so she can punish him.

"Where were you Tiago?" Jewel asked sternly.

"Nowhere, just needed to refresh myself with some cool air." Tiago lied.

"Are you sure?" Jewel made her glare more deadly.

"Positive mom, now can I get some sleep?" Tiago asked, pretending to yawn and be tired.

"Alright, but tomorrow, you're staying home with us as punishment, got it?" Jewel said as she stepped closer to her son.

"Yes mom." Tiago replied, a bit intimidated by his mother.

Jewel flew back to her birdhouse she shared with Blu, who was of course snoring heavily and completely asleep, but Jewel found it rather cute and returned to her original snuggled up position against Blu. Meanwhile Tiago laid down to sleep himself, pleased with the results of his hard work and effort, for the prank turned out as it was supposed to.

And this was only the beginning of Tiago's pranking spree, he had many more ideas planned and more victims in mind for the following days…

Oh Tiago… You little trickster… You'll get what you deserve eventually…
