~2 months earlier~
"Dad?" Asked Bia, scared of what she thought happened to her father. "You don't remember me? It's me Bia!"
"I'm sorry but you must be thinking of someone else, by the way my name is Blu, like the cheese." Answered Blu positively.
"No. No no no no. This can't be happening. You have to remember me dad!" Said Bia.
"Umm. Bia. Maybe if you take me around I might be able to find something to jog my memory" Answered Blu.
"Sure. But can you fly?" Replied Bia.
"Well... I ummm... no. I can't fly. Could I fly before?" Asked Blu.
"Yes. But we can walk!" Said Bia happily.
"Sure. I can do that let's go." Said Blu approaching the entrance. "But how am I gonna get down from here."
Blu looked around for a possible way down.
"Maybe I can carry you down?" Suggested Bia.
"Maybe. Sure let's try it." Blu agreed.
Bia proceeded to take her father in her talons and glided down to the ground.
"Wow! Dad you're so heavy!" Bia said while carying her father in her talons.
When they arrived at the forest floor Bia was exhausted by carrying her father.
"So Bia. Ready to go?" Chuckled Blu.
"Just (gasp) catching my (gasp) breath." Said Bia.
Just as Bia said "breath" another bird showed up and went inside the medical hollow. After a few seconds it emerged from the hollow and shouted "Bia! Blu! Are you there?!"
Suprisingly she heard a voice coming from below.
"Mom! We're down here!" Said Bia.
Jewel flew down to where Blu and Bia were.
"Blu!" Said Jewel as she hugged Blu. "You finally woke up!"
"And you are?" Said Blu nervously.
"What?" Said Jewel, confused.
"Mom. Dad has amnesia. We were just gonna go around to see if we can jog his memory." Said Bia sadly.
"So you're my mate? Huh. I never thought I'd end up with someone so beautiful." Said Blu dreamily.
"Well. Even if you forget everything you're still quite a charmer." Jewel joked.
"Mom. Dad forgot how to fly." Replied Bia.
"Well we could always teach him again." Suggested Jewel.
"Umm. Can we go sight seeing now?" Said Blu.
"Okay. Lets go. Bia where do you want to go first?" Asked Jewel.
"How about we go show dad to the others first." Suggested Bia.
"Good Idea. I think Carla and Tiago first since they haven't seen dad for a while." Said Jewel.
"Umm. Can we go now. It's starting to get awkward for me." Replied Blu awkwardly.
"Sure. Lets go." Said Jewel.
They walked towards their hollow for 30 minutes before finally reaching there. Jewel then flew up and later flew down with two more birds.
"Dad!" Said the two birds running towards Blu to hug him.
"So I have more kids?" Said Blu.
"What?" Said one of the birds. "It's me Carla."
"And it's me Tiago. Mom what's wrong with dad?" Asked the other bird."
"Well. Kids your dad has... amnesia. You know a brain disease which makes you forget some of your memories." Answered Jewel.
"So he dosen't remember us?" Said Carla, who was starting to tear up.
"Kids it's alright. Maybe we can bring your father to Linda." Suggested Jewel.
"Yes!" Shouted Blu making the others jump. "Finally. Someone I actually know."
"Well. He's back to pet mode." Thought Jewel.
"Well. Tiago can you get your dad's fanny pack." Said Jewel.
"Sure. Wait here. I'll be right back." Said Tiago.
After a while Tiago came back with Blu's fanny pack.
"Here it is mom." Said Tiago while giving the fanny pack to his mother.
"Thanks Tiago." Said Jewel as she tried to find the GPS from Blu's fanny pack.
When she found it she set it to Linda and Tulio's coordinates.
"Okay. Let's go." Said Jewel.
They flew off to go to Linda and Tulio. Then Jewel stopped in midair as she realized that Blu couldn't fly. She told her kids to stay put and then she flew back for about 20 seconds until she saw Blu trying to follow them in the direction they flew she flew down to him and apologized.
"Oh. I'm sorry. I forgot you couldn't fly." She apologized.
"Nah. It's fine. I'm used to walking." Said Blu.
"Okay. I'll be just above you to tell you where to go okay." Said Jewel.
After another 36 minutes of walking they finally arrived at Linda and Tulio's camp. They saw the two getting ready to return to Rio for the holidays. Jewel chirped to get the attention of the two humans. When they finally got the two's attention Bia motioned for a pen and paper which the two provided.
"Oh! Who is this?" Asked Linda reffering to the now orange Blu.
"This is dad. Somehow he got turned orange. But more on that later. He has amnesia. Is there any cure or solutions to it?" Bia wrote suprisingly legibly.
"What?!" Screamed Linda which made Tulio, who was drinking coffee, choke on his drink a bit. "Tulio! Do you have any cure for amnesia?"
After Tulio recovered from choking from his drink he answered weakly. "Linda (pant) I don't think such a cure (pant) exists. Though I would like to see how Blu turned orange."
"Tulio! This is not the time for questions. Blu needs treatment!" Said Linda angrily.
"Well I'm sorry! But there is no cure for amnesia as of now." Said Tulio.
"Well I suppose we can deal with that later. So Blu why are you orange?" Asked Linda.
"Dad turned orange the same way he and I can do this." Wrote Bia on the paper before making a fire in her wing.
Linda,Tulio,Carla and Tiago were shocked by this this and sent her a barrage of questions.
"Wow! Bia that's Incredible!" Said Carla.
"How did you do that sis?!" Asked Tiago.
"That's amazing! How did you do that?" Asked Tulio.
"Guys. Guys! Let's give her some space." Said Linda.
Bia spent the rest of the day explaining everything to the others while Blu and Jewel went back to their hollow. After that day Blu spent the whole next day meeting the others and trying to get his memory back.
~Present~
Blu and his family were playing soccer at the pit of doom. Jewel taught Blu how to fly and he was becoming more comfortable of his surrounding. He still has no progress in getting his memory back though he didn't mind because he had his family with him.
"Tiago! Over here!" Said Blu.
"Here you go!" Shouted Tiago while kicking the nut which is an improvised ball towards his dad.
Blu caught the ball and kicked the ball towards the other team's goal. The defender, which was Carla, jumped to block the ball but failed.
"Goal!" Screamed Blu and Tiago after they score the goal, winning the game.
"Well, good game." Said the females to the males.
"You gals weren't so bad either." Said Blu.
"Awww. Thanks honey." Said Jewel as she leaned in for a kiss.
The kids made disgusting noises while the adults made charmed noises. The sun started to set and they decided to go home and rest. Once they got home Blu decided to take an early sleep and rest. He opened his eyes to see that he was once again in a dark void.
"H-hello? Is anyone there?" Said Blu nervously.
Suddenly an orange macaw appeared next to Blu which made Blu jump and freeze in the spot.
"Hey Blu. Long time no see." He chuckled.
"Umm. D-do I know y-you?" Asked Blu.
"Well, you still don't have your memory huh? It's me Jack." Replied Jack.
"H-how do you know about that?" Asked Blu again.
"I know everything that happens to you. I'm a part of you, you know." Answered Jack. "And I can help you get your memory back."
"Really?!" Asked Blu.
"Yes. I can transfer my memories to you. Since I ama part of you, I can transfer your forgotten memories back." Answered Jack.
"So what are we waiting for? Lets do it!" Said Blu.
"One problem. The ritual must be performed in the physical world." Said Jack.
"Well, can you like possess me or something?" Asked Blu.
"Actually I can. Though the possession will be a little painful. Are you sure you are up to it?" Replied Jack.
"Anything for Jewel." Blu said confidently.
As soon as Blu said those words Jack turned into dust and went into Blu's beak. Blu felt a large tingling sensation in his throat which quickly turned into pain. Blu endured the pain without any problems. As soon as the last of the orange dust entered Blu he woke up with a jolt. Luckily noone was awakened by Blu's sudden movement. His eyes were glowing orange. He was about to fly out when he accidentally stepped on a branch causing it to snap. He looked back to see if anyone woke up and saw Bia walking towards him.
"Dad? Where are you go-" She said before seeing her father's glowing eyes.
She was about to scream when Blu/Jack covered her beak with his wing.
"Bia. Calm down." Said Jack.
"Wh-who are you?" Asked Bia nervously.
"It's me Jack. Your dad asked me to possess him so I can get back his memories." Answered Jack.
"Oh. Can I help you in anyway?" Offered Bia.
"Umm. Well I need a guide to help me find materials for the ritual to get your dad's memories back." Replied Jack
"Sure. I'll help you." Said Bia happily.
They discussed their plan and agreed to meet at the clay banks.
