Rio the series 5

Chapter 10 The Macaw and Hawk enjoying a day out

A nice relaxing day in all of Rio's Jungle. The time was still early morning, at about 5:00 Am. In the Blue Macaw's family tree hollow, Blu had just woken from up from his peaceful sleep, to see Jewel sleeping peacefully in his wings.

Blu smiled and gently lifted his wing up and stroked her head to Jewel's enjoyment while she still slept.

Since it was still early, Blu lifted his head back down in the nest and decided to go back to sleep for a little while. Blu peaked one open to see the back of Jewel's head and thought to himself: "Jewel looks so peaceful when she sleeps. I love her so much."

Later that day

After waking up from his peaceful sleep, Blu was enjoying a nice relaxing flight through the Jungle. It was so peacefully, he couldn't even hear the voice that was shouting for him nearby.

"Blu! Blu! BLU!"

Blu finally opened his eyes, only to see no-one was around. Blu landed himself on the ground and put his wings to his sides.

"Blu, over here!"

Blu finally found who was calling him. In some long grass, Rico was laying down in it while wearing his ghillie suit. "Blu, come here."

"Rico?" Blu said, while he approached the Hawk in the long grass. When he was close, Rico put his wing out and yanked Blu down in the grass. "Ow! What was the for?-"

"Shhhh." Rico shushed, before he began staring out of the grass again. "He could be here any second now."

"Who?" Blu asked in a whisper.

"Remember that Bear we ran into the other day?" Rico asked.

"How could I forget?" Blu shuddered.

"Well, as you can see there, I've set up a net and bait to catch him." Rico explained, while pointing a wingtip at the net and bait in the open area. "All I do now, is wait."

"Sounds like a plan." Blu grinned.

"It'll work." Rico reassured.

They both waited and waited for the Bear to appear. Rico tried to pass the time by talking with his Blue Macaw friend. "So, how's Jewel?"

"She's fine." Blu answered, while trying to keep both his eyes on Rico and the trap. "She didn't feel like doing anything today, so she's watching the kids while she said I could go and have fun."

"Cool." Rico smirked, before he and Blu suddenly heard the net go up. Rico laughed and quickly jumped out of the grass. "Hahahah, I got ya now!"

Blu and Rico jumped over into the area where the net was hanging by a tree branch. Unfortunately it was not the Bear. Instead, it was a rather small Red-Crested Cardinal hanging inside.

Both Blu and Rico frowned with their eyes half-closed and said: "Pedro."

"What?" Pedro shrugged, while dangling around the in the nest. "I got hungry."

"Well, this was a waste." Rico sighed, while he and Blu began to cut the net down to get Pedro down. "I guess the Bear will have to wait."

Another day in Rio, folks. Rico was so close to catching the Bear. I hope it gets it, because to be truthful, me and my brother went somewhere near the rainforest once and we saw one. We didn't know if it was dangerous or not, but we did the safest thing and walked back where we came.

But before I leave for today, here's another question for all of you out there.

"What is your favorite song in Rio?"

Mine's Real In Rio. As much as I love I Wanna Party, Real In Rio is my favorite.

Anyway, chapter 11 coming soon. Be sure to review. If you don't, I will kill you...Just kidding...Or am I?

Nah, seriously I won't kill you...Or will I?
