Hey guys, back by popular demand: SACRIFICE
This is the same timeline as my first one, but years later.
Enjoy:)
Amazon boat
Blu narration
It has been 2 years since Jewel and I killed Nigel and announced our love for eachother.
During that time we have had 3 wonderful children named Carla, Bia and Tiago.
But scars of the encounter still run deep with us.
I still have a piece of metal stuck deep in my body, the scars from the glass still show.
But other than that life was back to normal, Jewel had taught me how to fly.
Rafael said I felt the samba in my heart, but i think that is crazy.
It makes no scientific sense, but whatever.
All I care about is keeping life good for me and my family.
Speaking of family, Tiago seems to have Jewel's energy and wildness, Carla loves music and is quite laid back while Bia has my intelligence and social awkwardness.
We lived just outside the Blu Bird sanctuary in Rio (the name is quite embarrassing).
Life is perfect, well mostly.
My past injuries sometimes cause me to feel great pain in short bursts.
Along with that we got news from the Amazon.
A couple days ago, we were in Linda and Tulio's house when a news program came on.
The lady was talking about a possible colony of blue spix macaws in the Amazon.
So being the hopeful and lovable bird Jewel was, we all set out for the Amazon.
Right now we're on a boat, heading deeper into the rainforest.
But I have a slight phobia of the jungle, spiders, snakes, jaguars, ants, piranhas, camons the list goes on.
I am doing this for Jewel, I doubt my parents are still alive but Jewel's may still be, so that is a hope.
Anyways we're about to get off our boat to continue the last leg of our journey.
End narration
Blu was leaning against a wall on the boat, he was checking the contents of his fanny pack.
"Ok, let's see. Pocket knife? Check. Cup? Check. First Aid kit? Check. Painkillers? Check Okey-dokey, ready to go".
Jewel landed next to me, "c'mon Blu, relax".
I looked at her, "I know, Bia's just filled my head with so much information about the dangers here".
Jewel smiled, "I understand my lovehawk. But imagine it, an entire tribe of our kind".
Blu chuckled, "I understand my jewel of the forest".
Jewel gave Blu a quick kiss, "now let's go".
Then Blu gathered Tiago, Bia and Carla and they set out from their boat.
Little did they know, hiding in the trees was a female white cockatoo, with a blow pipe slung across her back.
"So, these are the ones that killed my dear Nigel, my one and only? They shall pay for what they did".
The cockatoos name is Nyra, she was Nigel's mate.
She was also just as ruthless and demented as he was, enjoying capturing birds and selling them to the highest bidder.
But the day Nigel had died, she was watching over a friends egg.
When news came of Nigel's untimely demise she mourned, but quickly picked up the search to find out who did it.
For 2 years she searched, but it wasn't until recently she found out it was Blu and his family who did it.
"Don't worry my sweet Nigel, that Blu will pay", she lighted from the branch and began following the blue macaw family.
Back with Blu
The group of 5 macaws continued flying through the Amazon, on the lookout for any of their kind.
The jungle was silent, (except for Tiago's constant blabbering).
Suddenly, out of nowhere, Blu was tackled by something.
"BLU!" screamed Jewel, who gave chase, with the kids following her.
Back with Blu.
Blu was tackled by a blue macaw, much larger than he was, and was being held by the talons.
"Hey, buddy. Could you please let me go?", the macaw obliged and dropped Blu onto a branch, before placing a foot on his throat.
"Who are you? Where did you come from?" asked the bigger macaw.
Jewel finally caught up to Blu and stood in front of the older macaw, "hey buddy, leave us alo-" Jewel was suddenly speechless, "Eduardo?" "Jewel?".
The 2 macaws suddenly embraced each other, which left Blu perplexed and still choking.
"Guys *cough* I know this is sweet, but could you please *gasp* let me breath?".
Eduardo retired his talon from Blu's throat and allowed him to stand up, "Thanks, I need that for breathing and talking".
Eduardo eyed Blu, who did the same to Eduardo, "who are you?" they asked at the same time.
Eduardo noted the many scars that Blu had on his body, strange he thought to himself.
"Well, I am Eduardo, chief of the blue macaw tribe and Jewel's father. Who might you be?".
Blu stood up taller and raised a wing out to Eduardo, "well, I am Blu" said Blu, "I know you are, what is your name?" asked Eduardo.
Blu sighed, "No, my name is Blu, B-L-U, Blu. I am just an ordinary macaw and Jewel's mate".
Eduardo went wide eyed, "Mate, do you mean-" Jewel nodded before turning to a nearby bush, "Carla, Bia, Tiago come meet your grandfather!".
On cue 3 little balls of blue feathers came flying out of the bushes.
They flew to Jewel and Blu, "These are our kids, Carla, Bia and Tiago" said Jewel.
Eduardo was ecstatic, he had just found his daughter, and better yet she had kids.
"Hey kids, I am Eduardo. But you can call me pop-pop".
"Pop-pop" said Carla, "I like it".
The 3 children ran up and hugged Eduardo.
Blu smiled at the sight, "Y'know, this is really cute. A family reunion".
Eduardo and Jewel looked at Blu, "I ruined the moment, didn't I?".
They both nodded, Jewel looked to Eduardo, "dad, is Mimi here?".
Eduardo nodded, "she's going to be so excited to see you".
"Then let's go" said Jewel.
The whole group followed, Blu staying to the rear of the group.
They flew through several trees, until they reached a hidden waterfall and a whole tribe of blue spix macaws.
"EVERYONE, JEWEL HAS RETURNED, MY DAUGHTER IS HOME!", this statement form Eduardo got everyone excited.
To celebrate all the birds began singing Beautiful Creatures together.
During the dance Mimi spotted Jewel and flew up to her, "My little wildflower had returned!" she screamed in delight.
Blu didn't know what to do during the dance, so he just stayed on the ground and watched them dance.
But nearby, in a bush, Nyra was watching, sharpening some extra shots for her blowpipe.
"I could easily take him now and kill him, but that would be boring. I must wait for the most opportune moment to exact my revenge on that bastard Blu. Hey, catchy", she quickly left in search of a hollow to steal.
Back with Blu
The dance ended, with everyone tired and wanting to return home.
Blu was also tired (despite not dancing) but then he realised that they had nowhere to sleep.
Jewel could read the problem off of Blu's face like a book, she turned to Eduardo, "Dad, is there anywhere we can stay for the time being?".
Eduardo nodded, "there is an empty hollow near mine, you can stay there".
Jewel nodded, "Thank you dad" she turned to her family, "c'mon guys, let's go to sleep".
Blu nodded and picked up a sleeping Tiago, then the family left for their 'temporary' home.
Upon arriving they found 2 nests already made, they put the kids down in one and reserved the other one for themselves.
Jewel yawned and walked onto the nest, before laying down, "Coming my lovehawk" asked Jewel.
Blu nodded while fishing around in his fanny pack, "yeah, one second" he finally found a box labeled Boxytrocin Painkillers, with some pills in it.
He opened the bottle and took out one pill, before closing the bottle and swallowing the pill.
The pill instantly went to work relieving any pain the piece of metal inside him may have caused.
Blu then walked towards Jewel and the nest.
He settled down next to her, closing his eyes and entering a peaceful slumber.
But outside the hollow Nyra watched, "Oh Blu, enjoy your time with Jewel. Your days are numbered", Nyra then left, not before shooting a 'special' dart into the sleeping form of Tiago.
"Sweet dreams young one, you'll be in them for a while".
