Ch. 31: The Abnormal Calm Before The Storm

written 11/20/12 modified 5/12/20

Both blue macaw families awoke to an unusually quiet morning. In Blu and Jewel's hollow, the whole family was stunned by the silence. Blu was on one side with their

boys and Jewel was on the other side with their daughter. "Dad, what's going on?" asked Topaz. "I'm not sure Topaz." said Blu looking down at his son. "I'm just as

puzzled as you are, let's ask your Mother she's been in the forest longer than I have." "Alright Dad." replied Topaz.

On the other side of the hollow, Pearl was looking up at her Mother curiously. "Mother, what's going on?" "I haven't a clue sweetie, maybe the guys would know."

replied Jewel. "Alright Mother." replied Pearl. So the two of them flew off to see the males.

The family met in the center of the hollow. "What's going on, Blu?" asked Jewel looking into her mate's chocolate-brown eyes. "Since you lived in the wild longer, I

was hoping you would know." he replied. "For the first time, I don't." she said. "Okay, well my hypothesis is that there is some sort of danger awaiting us, that's

waiting to pick us off one by one." Blu said with a slight smile. "Oh Blu, you're so cute when you go into your nerd bird mode." replied Jewel with a laugh. "Well, I

certainly hope that Abilio and his family are okay." said Blu. "They are Blu, I can sense it." replied Jewel. Just then, they noticed that their daughter had drifted off

into deep thought. "Oh my distinguished Dimas, I hope you, your sisters, and your parents are staying safe."

Meanwhile, at the other blue macaw nest, Abilio and his family were clueless about the abnormal silence. "Mother, Father, this is really strange." stated Dimas who

then went into deep thought about the one creature he loved more than any other."Oh my precious Pearl, I hope you, your brothers, and your folks okay."

Then suddenly the morning went back to its usual melodious tunes, and everyone went back to their normal routines. Little did the two blue macaw families

know that a white, grayish being was watching them from under the dark shadows of the trees. He had an evil smile on his beak, and then he whispered

under his breath, "Alright blue macaws, it's your move."

I know you all hate me since this chapter is so short it will probably be my only filler chapter
