Here I am in this universe again, so let's see how well I can try to make it continue.


CHAPTER TWENTY THREE: STARTING A BORING DAY

Rafael was at his home sleeping, so was Eva, Nico, Pedro, and Luiz. Each of them were at their homes. But six more of the birds that we know and love were sleeping differently. Blu, Jewel, Mikka, Leo, Carlos, and Sophia. Six birds, three pairs, and each one was a pair of lovebirds sleeping in each other's wings, feeling love and comfort. Up until finally the sun went up and one of those pairs decided to wake up.

Mikka and Leo.

Mikka woke first and tried to wake up her stubborn boyfriend. "Leo? Leo. Oh my little Loveo, can you wake up please?" And Leo tiredly replied to her, "Huh? Ugh, five more minutes, mommy." "Mommy? Ok, I'm your mommy then would I do this?" Mikka ends up tickling him like mad, causing him to laugh and wake up. "Ha! Ha! Ha! Okay, okay, okay, stop, stop, I'm up, I'm up!" "Good." She stopped and replaced the tickles with repeated kisses to the face. "Aw, haha. You sure do know how to get my attention." "Hmm…and you sure do know me well." She lifted him up by hugging him, and cuddled their together.

These two were no different from a married couple. Hugging, sharing kisses, and not let anything disturb them. Though one thing did disturb Mikka from the mind. Blu. Leo noticed that she stopped cuddling.

"Mikka, are you okay?"

"Huh? Oh yeah. I'm just thinking." Before Leo asked what is she thinking about, she pointed to Blu's nest. Which wasn't too far. "Oh. You're thinking about Blu and Jewel?"

"No. Just Blu."

"What? Ouch, I think I'm jealous."

"Haha. I mean I'm worried about him."

"And why's that? I mean, I know what happened last night wasn't the best, but he was always strong, through and through. If we have learned anything from this past month, it's that he's tougher than any bird we've known."

"I know. But that doesn't mean I still can't worry. He's just a kid. A year old baby bird who shouldn't be alone, staying here to wait and hope that his parents will come back."

"Oh. I forgot about that."

"Which is why I think we should do something for him."

"Like what? Leave here and find his parents ourselves? Babe, we don't even know where to start."

"No, no, not that. I mean…" She came up and whispered her plan to Leo's ear. His eyes became wide, feeling scared.

"Whoa. Mikka are you sure that's a good idea? I don't even know if I'm ready for that yet."

"I know, and neither am I. But I just worry for him way too much. And like me, don't you at least think of him as one too?"

Leo thought that about what she said, while taking a good look at Blu's nest. He then smiled, giving into her girlfriend's idea. "Yeah. Okay. If this is something you wanna do, then I'll do it with you. Now when do we start?"

"When Blu wakes up. He gets up, we ask if we can spend the day with him, to which I'm pretty sure he'll say yes to, and we spend it with him. And we have fun with him until we mention our idea with him."

"You mean your idea, I'm just going with it."

They chuckled, and spent time cuddling again before Blu got up. But later, after everyone did wake up and spend the day, Nico, Pedro, Rafael, and Luis were all the way at the samba club…doing nothing.

"Ugh!" Said Pedro. Now the birds and dog were just the market, under the tent, laying on the crates. "Ya know, Pedro, doing that for a full on hour isn't gonna make anything happen." "Sorry, Rafi. I'm just so bored." "We know, and it's not exactly different for us." Said Nico. "Blu is spending time with Mikka and Leo while Jewel and Eva are at home having their fun day. And we agreed to close the club for the rest of the week." "Well there's gotta be something we can do, bro." "Like what?" Nico gave him a puzzled look, and because Pedro was staring at it, "Like…like…uh…okay you got me." Nico dropped his head down, going "Ugh!" too. Rafael was the only one to have his head up, thinking that he'd want to hang out with Blu or the girls now but didn't wanna leave his bros behind.

"Okay, boys. How about we do this old game. I say a word and then you guys each give another one, making it a story."

"Okay." Nico said unimpressed. "Go ahead."

Rafi: "Thank you. THIS…"

Pedro: "GAME…"

Nico: "EATS…"

Luiz: "HARRY…"

Pedro: "MOOSE!"

"Alright, alright. That gets too old anyway. How about we try-" Rafi stopped talking after getting hit by a blueberry. Thrown by Nico. "You know, you're not exactly one for choosing radical games." "Excuse me? I'll have you know that I'm-" Nico threw another but to his top beak, causing it to splat. "You were saying?" Nico smiled. Rafael looked at beak and saw it as a mess. "Now come on, bros. Can't we all just get a-" "Life!?" Pedro yelled and then he threw a berry behind Rafi. "Now don't you start too-" "Make me!" The canary and cardinal repeated three blueberries at him, causing Rafi started gettin' mad.

"Ooh. So you fellas wanna play hardball, huh?" His answer came when one last berry hit him. "Okay! It's on!" He leaped to the backside of a small crate, grabbed some fruit and started firing. "Ah, haha!" He played mad now, Nico and Pedro were both scared but encouraged it. The three birds were having their own CALL OF FRUITY war. Luiz was at another spot trying to avoid.

"I'd join in but I don't have the arms of Thor Throwing." He said to himself. The club was looking like a real colorful mess now, and it was getting closer to Luiz, so he stealthily backed up, trying not to get the birds' attention. But then, once he backs up enough, he hits the radio by accident, turning it on.

From it, came a big beat that did get the bird's attention. This really cool song was playing, and the beat just gave the three enough encouragement to continue.

"Whoa. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Said Luiz. He started dancing to it, and so did the others while listening to the song, "Flashlight! by Parliament." The song was so 70's, so retro, and yet it still had this beat to make the gang dance, throw, laugh, and go crazy. The song soon ended,and the four animals were on their backs laughing and getting tired seeing that their boredom mode was now gone. Thinking that so far, this day turned to be not so boring.


Like I said, I'm gonna be a little rusty with this one. :)

I could've added the lyrics to that song like the others before but if you listened to it and knew long it was then you would be telling me, "DON'T!"
