Rio the series
Chapter 7 big news for the Blue Macaws
Another glorious day in the Jungle, home of the singing Birds. In one of the tree hollow's, laid the three Birds, a Canary, and Cardinal, and a Hawk, known as "Nico, Pedro, and Rico."
Rico sat in the nest, beat-boxing to Nico and Pedro. Rico stopped beat-boxing and asked: "How was that?"
"No, no, no, Rico, you need to work on your higher level." Nico suggested.
"Work on my hig-what does even mean?" Rico asked, with his wings crossed.
"Well, it means something like-" Pedro was about to explain.
"Shut up, Pedro!" Rico ordered.
"What-eves." Pedro shrugged. Just then, from the peaceful loving sky, Blu arrived and flew into Rico's tree hollow, holding Jewel in his talons; they both had smiles on their beaks.
"Here they are, Romero and Juliet." Rico said.
"Hey guys." Nico greeted.
"Why do you look so happy?" Pedro inquired, noticing their happy expressions.
"Me and Jewel have big news." Blu answered, before turning to his wife. "Tell them, sweetheart."
"Well..."
...
...
...
"I'm pregnant!" Jewel shouted, with excitement.
"Ha-ha-" Nico cheered, throwing his bottle-cap in the air.
"NICE ONE." Pedro cheered.
"CONGRATULATIONS!" Rico yelled.
"Thanks guys." Blu thanked, smiling.
"What you standing there for? Come give me hug!" Rico said, with his black wings open.
"Ok." Blu replied. They all shared hugs with Blu, while Jewel hugged them and gave them kisses on the cheeks.
"When did you find out?" Rico asked.
Jewel placed a wingtip on her chin. "This morning. Me and Blu was at home..."
Earlier that day
The morning slowly rose, throughout the Jungle of Rio. Blu and Jewel sat in their nest, eating a mango each. For some unknown reason, Jewel had eaten her mango, before Blu had even eaten a quarter of his.
"Hungry, Jewel?" Blu asked.
"Yeah, since this morning, I've been really hungry." Jewel replied. Suddenly, Jewel felt a little pain in her stomach. "Oh."
"Jewel, are you ok?" Blu said, worridly.
"Yeah, I'm fine, just a little-OW!" Jewel bellowed.
"JEWEL!" Blu screamed, running over to his loved one. Jewel fell to her side and placed both wings on her stomach. Blu sat down beside her and supported her in his dark blue wings. "Jewel, are you ok?"
"Blu, something-ow-feel's weird." Jewel replied, grunting in pain. "Please, help me, Blu."
Blu could only think of one idea to help Jewel. "Jewel, listen."
Jewel obeyed, and looked at her mate, with tears in her eyes. Blu cleared his throat and continued. "I know you may not like this-but I think we should see Tulio."
"Actually, Blu. That doesn't sound too bad." Jewel replied, leaving Blu a little surprised.
Blu flew into the air and got a good grip on Jewel shoulders, with his talons. "Let's go."
Present time
"So, Tulio took me into an X-ray and announced I was carrying three eggs." Jewel finished, smiling.
"Wow, well once again-congrats." Nico congratulated.
"Does anyone else know?" Pedro inquired.
"We told Rafael and Eva before We came here." Blu answered.
"Nice, we should celebrate." Rico suggested.
"That's why we came. Can you set up a party at the Club?" Blu requested.
"Nico?" Pedro said, turning to his best friend.
Nico smiled in response. "Sure, we can."
"Thanks, guys, we will drop by later." Blu said, flying into the air and placing his talons on Jewel's shoulders.
Blu flew away from the tree; Jewel turned her head around and called "Bye, guys."
After a quick flight, while carrying his pregnant wife. Blu landed outside the Club and set Jewel down preparing for a surprise.
"You ready?" Blu asked.
"Yep." Jewel replied. They both walked inside the Club, but the lights were off, once again.
"They're here." "shhhhh" "Do my feathers look alright?" "You asked that last time." "Shut up!" multiple voices were heard.
Suddenly the lights flicked on, revealing multiple Birds. "Surprise congratulations Blu and Jewel!"
"Thanks!" Blu yelled, raising his wings.
"Thank you!" Jewel thanked, taking a bow.
So the party began. The lovebirds began to enjoy themselves throughout the Club. Blu was talking to Rafael, at the bar. Jewel was talking to Eva about parenthood. "Congratulations, Blu." A Toucan said, walking past Blu and giving him a quick pat on the back.
"Thanks." Blu replied.
"Congratulations, Jewel." a Military Macaw said.
"Thanks." Jewel replied
Rico, who had been dancing with the others, flew into the air, catching Blu and Jewel's attention. "Hey, guys, you gonna come sing? It's karaoke night."
"Um I don't know." Blu said.
"Erm, no, I'm fine, thank you." Jewel replied.
"What about you, Blu?" Rico asked.
"Umm, why not, eh?" Blu said.
"Sweet, I'll go tell Kipo." Rico said, flying away.
"Sure you don't wanna sing?" Blu asked Jewel.
"I'm sure. I don't wanna stress my self. Now that I'm pregnant." Jewel replied.
"Ok, that's fine." Blu replied, before seeing Bird's on the stage, ready to sing. "Oh, it's on."
One by one, a lot of birds present began singing one of their favorite songs each for karaoke night.
Nico:

Rico:

Your job's a joke, you're broke, you love life's D.O.A,
Blu:
Say you, say me; say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me; say it together
Naturally
Golden macaw:
Gold
Always believe in your soul
You've got the power to know
You're indestructible
Always believe in, because you are Gold
Glad that you're bound to return
There's something I could have learned
"Well, that was fun." Blu said, planting a kiss on Jewel's cheek.
"Yeah, you were good." Jewel smiled.
"It's getting late, we going home?" Blu asked, noticing the weather changing
"Sure, give me a lift, please?" Jewel requested.
"Yep." Blu replied, lifting Jewel up in his talons. "Bye everyone."
"See ya, Blu. See ya Jewel!" the crowd called.
Night time had finally arrived in Rio. Blu got back into his and Jewel's tree, just in time, and set Jewel down in the nest. Blu laid down in the nest, on his back. "Rest up, my Jewel of the Forest.
"Blu, I just wanna thank you, for giving me, love, protection, and now a family." Jewel said, smiling, as she began to cuddle her back on top of Blu's body.
"That's, what I'm here for, Jewel, I love you." Blu said, wrapping his wings around Jewel. "Jewel?"
"Hmmmm?" Jewel hummed, turning her head sideways.
"Is it ok...If I feel?" Blu inquired.
"Feel?" Jewel said, slightly confused.
"Yeah, the eggs. Please?" Blu requested.
Jewel smiled, happy and granted Blu's request. "Of course you can, Blu. There your children."
"Thank you, I'll be gentle, I promise." Blu reassured, as he slowly moved his wing down to Jewel's belly.
"That's ok, Blu. I trust you." Jewel smiled. Blu used his right wing, to rub Jewel's stomach; he could feel three lumps, which were three little eggs. They both smiled, and looked down at Jewel's belly.
"Wow, thats out children?" Blu said, lifting his wing back around Jewel.
"Indeed." Jewel replied.
"Well, get some sleep." Blu said, planting a kiss on Jewels' head.
Jewel giggled and moved her head into Blu's neck. "As you wish. Good night...Lovehawk."
