Back on the other side of the Jungle, the Blue Macaw family were in their tree hollow together, napping in their nest after their day of fun.

Blu laid next to his beautiful wife and napped peacefully which was soon interrupted by loud yells coming from outside.

Blu peaked his eyes open when a saw a familiar Scarlet Macaw come zooming into his hollow. "Blu! Blu! Blu, wake up!"

The Blue Macaw groaned while covering his eyes with his wing. "Oh, what is it, Arlene?"

"Two evil birds are coming after you! You need to leave!" Arlene quickly explained to Blu while panting, trying to het her breath back after the long flight through the Jungle.

All the blue macaws leaned up when they heard Arlene say, "Evil birds."

Blu was the first to speak. He cocked his head to the side and raised a curious face, his eyebrow arched. "Evil birds?"

"Who?" Jewel inquired, moving her wings forward and gathering her children close to her just in case something bad happened.

Arlene then inhaled a deep breath, knowing she would have to explain everything to her friends. So Arlene began to tell them everything that had happened. The two macaws she saw, the dreams and visions of Rico, and her prediction of Rio being in danger.

After she was finished telling them about what happened in the past, Arlen finished off her sentence with a warning to her friend. "They're looking for The Orb of Darkness, and since they couldn't find it, they're looking for you, Blu."

"Orb of Darkness, and they're looking for me?" Blu quired, rubbing the back of his neck in his wing.

"They must be Brotherhood members." Jewel suggested, while stroking her childrens' head with her wing.

"I don't think so. They didn't look like Brotherhood members to me." Arlene countered, looking out of her tree hollow to see if there was anyone coming.

"Mmmm, you said they're coming for me?" Blu said, still a little confused about the whole situation. "I can't let them get the Orb. Well, we gotta hind."

"Guys, I still have my underground hideout. We can hide there." Nico-who had arrived shortly after Arlene came-suggested."

"Quick let's go!" Blu said, as him and his family and friends stood up and prepared to take off before they would be in danger.

###

Nico's secret underground hideout was not too far away luckily. The friends and family had arrived after a few minutes.

Blu, Nico and Arlene jumped down first while Jewel and the children kept watch for a few seconds to make sure no-one was falling them.

"Wow, cool place." Blu said, studding the inside of Nico's underground hideout.

Nico smiled in response and placed both his tiny wings to his hips. "Built it all by myself."

"Really?" Blu inquired, folding both his feathery blue wings together with a grin on his beak. "Wow, I bet it took you forever to built this."

"Kinda." Nico chuckled, while rubbing the back of his neck with his wing.

Blu smiled in response before turning back to Arlene to see if there was anything else he needed to know. "Arlene, is there anything else we need to know?"

"Yeah, I think they already got the Orb of Light." Arlene answered, while rubbing both her wings together a little, nervously.

Before anyone could say anything further, screams were heard from outside the underground hideout.

Blu, Nico and Arlene recognised the screams straight away, and Blu was the one to fly out first. "JEWEEEL! I'm coming!"

Just when Blu, Nico, and Arlene got to the surface, smoke was dropped down from out of nowhere. They all coughed while trying to wave the smoke away with their wings.

Unfortunately, the smoke was in fact sleeping gas, and it had knocked them into unconsciousness. Blu, Nico and Arlene tried to fight it the best they could, but the gas was too strong and put them into a deep sleep.

After they were completely out cold, a couple of mysterious silhouette figures wearing special masks so they didn't inhale the gas looked down at Blu, Nico, and Arlene laying out could on the ground.

They picked up the unconscious birds and carried them off somewhere. It would be a long time before Blu and his friends would wake up.

Well, Arlene did manage to get to her friends in time, but unfortunately, they have been captured by mysterious macaws. I can't say this well end well.

Stay tuned for the next chapter.
