Takes place in-between chapter 2 and 3 of "The New Kid".
"Would you kids be quiet!" commanded Blu.
It was the third time he had commanded the kids to settle down. He was much kinder the first two times, but patience was wearing thin. Jewel was in the nest, trying to get Aurora to go to sleep, but it didn't work. The arguing of Leoncio and Jalin kept her up and made her cry. Despite all this, the two brothers still fought. Of course, it was on something stupid and had no relevance to them whatsoever.
"Ghost Adventures is real," said Leoncio. "I mean, those videos with that ghost walking and the brick toss, how can you explain that?"
"Physics."
"But 'real' physicists already said that the physics suggest that the brick was thrown, not pulled and the walking ghost was something unexplainable."
"Yeah, but anything could be rigged to the right centimeter and using the right software. They are making a show. Besides, ghosts don't exist."
"How can you be so sure, Mr. Newton? It's like the parting of the Red Sea. It happened."
"Don't use religion to save yourself! Besides, you're not religious."
"I know enough to exploit it. You do know the parting of the Red Sea by Moses, right? Well, they found chariots and Pharaoh's body in it."
"They didn't find Pharaoh's body in the Red Sea. Scientists say he died naturally."
"Naturally as to what? He was old for his time. How can you say he died naturally when he drowned thousands of years ago? How can you prove that he drowned?"
"Obviously, he had to be found in water."
"What if he was pulled out during an undocumented time?"
Jalin was going to talk-back, but he couldn't find the words. Leoncio smirked. Blu shook his head.
"That's enough," said Blu. "It's late."
Elena walked up to her father and looked at him with puppy eyes.
"Please, Papa, can we stay up longer?"
"No. Aurora can't sleep because of all the arguing here."
"Then it's your fault too," mumbled Leoncio, referring to Blu's ordering voice.
"What was that, boy?" questioned Blu.
"Nothing, Sir."
"But Papa, I can't go to sleep," said Elena.
Blu sighed, but he quickly thought of a solution.
"What if I tell you a story?"
The chicks looked at their father with glee.
"You just have to promise to go to sleep at the end."
"We will," they chorused.
They walked to the spot of the den they slept in, half a foot away from the nest. The area had a jumbo leaf they used for a bed. They all sat on the leaf. Blu walked up to them and smiled.
"Alright. It's called the Hero of Destiny. Once upon a time, there was a warrior clothed in a green tunic, white pants, and brown boots. He wielded a powerful sword forged by his ancestors…"
Blu woke up in his green tunic and small, green elf hat. He was in a tree den the size that looked like a hut with a bed, a mirror, a nightstand, and a coffee table. He got out of his bed that looked like a Barbie bed. He stretched out his wings. His sword and shield were leaning against the small, wooden nightstand. It had the similar features of the Medieval sword, but it was about a foot long and was easily wielded by the blue macaw. He yawned as he secured the sword on his right side. The shield had a similar design to the Hyrulian shield, but it was a suitable size for the macaw. He put it on his back. The shield didn't disturb him when he flew.
He walked out of the den and smiled. Before him were trees that covered the area he lived in. The trees were spacious between each other, but their branches were only inches apart, providing shade for the most part of this simple community.
"What a perfect day. I really hope nothing bad happens."
Suddenly, he heard something on the ground. Four Common Marmosets were walking across the ground, pulling a carriage of royalty. They were walking highly towards Mayor Rafael's den. Curious, Blu flew over to the Mayor's den before the carriage got there and landed on the branch that was in front of the den's entrance. Rafael saw Blu and welcomed him.
"Hey, Blu. What brings you here this fine day?"
Obviously, Mayor Rafael, a fat mayor, had seen him land and was walking outside to greet him.
"Rafael, there's someone here."
Rafael looked down and saw the carriage stop in front of the den. A macaw got out of the carriage that was made of wood and was painted gold. The macaw was a blue macaw, about Blu's height and had yellow feathers around her blue eyes. She flew up to the branch Blu and Rafael was on. She was dressed in a black robe with a yellow line pattern on it. The robe only covered her back, not the front of herself. She faced Rafael and Blu.
"Ah, so you knew I was coming, Blu."
"Well, no. I was just curious on what was going on. Besides, how do you know my name?"
"You're the chosen one, as predicted by the gods."
"Wait, what? Me, the chosen one?"
"You are the one who pulled out the Sword of the Ancients."
Blu looked down at his side to see the sword.
"This? No, I found it in the jungle. It was on the pedestal that said he who wielded would possess the power to slain down… I couldn't read the rest. Moss was stuck to it."
"Your sword is called the Master Sword, the Blade of Evil's Bane. No one can just pull out the sword so easily. Only the chosen hero can pull it out."
"Wait," said Rafael. "If the sword is so sacred, why would it be in the jungle where it is exposed? I thought something so sacred would be in our temple or something."
"Someone destroyed it long ago. His name was Ganondorf, but Blu's ancestor killed him."
"My ancestor?"
"Your ancestor was named Link."
Blu thought back when he was a child. Before the war when he was a teenager between the birds of the Hyrule and the birds of Narnia, his grandpa would tell him stories of the past. One in particular stood out: Link Gunderson. The tale of Link Gunderson was a legend. It happened seventy years ago when Link battled Ganondorf. He faced the robed macaw.
"Okay, I remember the story. My grandfather used to tell me about it. Who are you anyways?"
"Oh, how rude of me. My name is Fides, Jewel's sorceress."
"Princess Jewel?" wondered Rafael.
Blu looked at Rafael. He was oblivious about them having a princess.
"We have a princess?"
"Wow," commented Fides. "You're clueless."
"Well, excuuussse me."
"Princess Jewel runs her kingdom in the neighboring province," explained Rafael. "It's in the Phasolina province."
Blu scratched his head.
"Okay. What does it border with?"
"The Yazakutona Province, the Elezanicyta Province, and the Tennessionela Province."
"What province are we?" Blu asked Rafael.
"We border the Tennessionela Province. We are named the Bob Province."
Blu's excitement quickly dimmed down.
"The Bob Province. Every Province has cool names, but ours suck. I mean, we can't say 'oh, I'm from the Bob Province' and feel cool about it."
"Hey, don't get mad at me. I didn't name it. An ancestor of this village named it."
"Who?"
"I think it was Pedro's ancestor."
"You mean the village idiot?"
Rafael nodded. Blu groaned. He looked back at Fides.
"Okay, um, so why are you here?"
"Princess Jewel is in need of your help. Her kingdom is in grave danger."
"And you expect me, a stranger who has no fighting experience, to help her."
Fides nodded.
"Well, you are the hero foretold by the gods. When the kingdom is under grave danger, a Blu Gunderson, the Spix's Macaw of Destiny, will be the only force to stop it."
"Man, that's very specific," stated Rafael.
"I know. The gods figured to name our heroes specifically after we almost got screwed with Ganondorf."
"It might be a different Blu Gunderson."
"I doubt it," said Fides. "Besides, there was a picture next to it that looks like you."
"How can I trust you? I just met you."
Fides sighed. She clapped her wings twice rapidly. One of the Common Marmosets went into the carriage and pulled out a small cauldron. He climbed up the tree, careful not to spill it, and reached the branch the birds were on. He placed it in front of Fides and bowed. He climbed back down. Using her magic, she circled her wings above the cauldron like a witch or wizard would.
"Oh, gods of Hyrule. Show me the Hero of Destiny."
She moved her wings away from the cauldron. Soon, the water showed an image. The three birds looked into the cauldron. They saw the image of Rafael.
"What?" wondered Fides.
"See, I knew I wasn't," said Blu.
"So, I'm the hero," said Rafael.
"This doesn't make sense," said Fides. "It showed Blu."
Soon, something surface up from under the water. One of Rafael's chicks smiled at the three birds. He faced Fides.
"Thanks for the swimming pool, lady."
Rafael grunted.
"Get out of there."
The little Toco Toucan flew out of the cauldron. Fides narrowed his eyes at Rafael. He nervously smiled.
"Sorry."
"Let's try this again."
The three birds looked into the cauldron to see a full image of Blu. Blu straightened up and gulped.
"Crap."
Fides and Rafael faced him.
"So, I guess I am the hero," continued Blu. "Oh, gods. What if I get killed or something?"
"Don't worry," said Fides. "The hero in green doesn't die easily. If you do, you suck. Besides, you can get red potion and stuff like that."
"So, what does he need to do?" asked Rafael.
"He needs to go to Rio Castle. Princess Jewel is there, but he can easily get in the castle."
"Are you sure?" asked Rafael.
"Positive."
"So, about this Princess?" wondered Blu. "Is she hot?"
Fides and Rafael looked at him curiously.
"Where is this coming from?" asked Fides.
"If I have to travel through perils that will almost get me killed, it had better be for a hot macaw. I mean, after almost getting killed for a stranger and then meet her to discover she's hideous would be very disappointing."
Fides groaned. She waved her wings above the cauldron.
"Oh, gods. Please, show me an image of Princess Jewel.
The three birds looked into the cauldron. Blu's heart dropped when he saw her. She was an elegant Spix's Macaw with sea blue eyes and cerulean feathers. She had a jewel crest around her head with a ruby on the front of it. Blu grinned.
"I'll do it."
"Horny bird," mumbled Rafael to himself.
Blu clapped his wings together.
"So, do I just go with you?"
Fides laughed. She clapped her wings. The marmoset that brought the cauldron climbed up the tree and grabbed it. He climbed back down with it. Fides faced Blu.
"Silly bird. Peasants can't ride with royalty."
"But I'm the chosen hero."
"Yes, but you are still a peasant. Well, I'll be waiting for you in Rio Castle."
As Fides flew down, the birds heard thunder roar from the sky. Fides looked up at Blu.
"Oh, and Princess Jewel is waiting for you. Don't keep her waiting."
With that said, Fides got into the carriage and was pulled off by the monkeys. Rafael and Blu watched the carriage disappear. Another clap of thunder was heard. Blu groaned.
"This better be worth it."
He opened his wings and took off, following the carriage. Rafael looked at Blu disappear from his view. He nodded at Blu's courage and went back inside of his warm and comfy den. The rain poured down two minutes after Rafael got back inside.
