Chapter 329: The Bird of the Bad Feather.

(August 8, Great Lakes City.)

Day has come, and right now we go to the front of the Casagrandes apartment, and the folks from the windows wait and watch for what is to come, but they also look upon the familia who are waiting there for the arrival.

We have: Rosa, Hector, Carlota, CJ, Carl, Carlitos, Lalo, Carlos and Frida, and a few feet from them are: Ronnie Anne, Sid, Maria, Bobby, Arturo and Becca, while Stanley is at work, and it seems like the Casagrandes aren't the only ones.

Sitting on bird perch, and chained to it is the parrot who caused so much trouble that it got the familia into some serious trouble with their own friends around the neighborhood and cit. Sergio Casagrande.

Right now, the parrot has a few feathers on him, and some of those feathers are beginning to grow back after what he went through, he has a cast on both his wings, and he has some bandages around him after the pain and bruises that he took, and he seems scared too.

Sergio gulps and he looks to the familia. "Rawrk… D-Do I have to d-do this?"

The others don't respond and look away from him, and so Rosa speaks. "Si, sorry Sergio. But you did this to yourself and as promised we contacted the Louds and they have to come here and hear what you have to say. You did this to them, to us and to yourself."

"All of this trouble was made and caused when you took things too far, and made Lincoln do all of that hard work, wasting the money the family had, and worst of all, wasting the hard earned money the boy had for his mother and Sam. Sergio, you've become a nuisance and no one will ever trust you, ever again."

Hector scoffs. "That is why, from now on. You will be secluded in a brand new cage, one where you can never come out of. We'll be the ones who decide when you can come out."

Sergio could see all of them have scornful looks onto him, and this makes him scared. He then sees Becca with a first aid kit. "What does she need that for?"

Sid then calls out. "To patch you back up after you take a beating, from the louds you stupid bird!" She then fist bumps with Ronnie Anne, and then they cross their arms and spot something. "Speak of the devil too."

They spot the dropship land and the main doors open, and walking out are none other, than Lincoln, Luna, Sam, Michelle, Delilah, Harriet and Jordan. The group don't seem pleased by seeing Sergio and they see the Casagrandes all getting ready.

Carlos then pushes the bird perch. "Here he is, Sergio Casagrande, and even though he cannot be able to fly, we still had him chained to his perch. Just to be safe."

Sergio gulps and looks to Rosa. The elderly woman wants to go to Sergio, but then Hector stops her. "Mi Corazon, recall what that bird did. Recall what he had done to have many of our friends hate us. Please, let them deal with this."

Rosa nods and she stands back as Sergio is being approached. Sergio is now wide eyed and he looks to the louds walking up towards him, and he sees Luna has a baseball bat with her. She then whistles and Frida tosses her the keys to the chain of the parrot.

Sergio didn't like where this was going and so he speaks. "Everyone, please… I didn't mean it, I just thought that…"

But then Lincoln grabs the bat and he hits the parrot so hard, he's knocked off of the chain that shatters and he hits the pavement. Luna tries to stop him, but he goes over to the downed parrot.

Sergio tries to crawl away, but then Lincoln grabs Sergio by the cast and he throws him in the air, Sergio comes down and Lincoln hits him and Sergio is sent to Delilah who does a high kick and Sergio is sent back to Lincoln who hits him again.

The parrot is now sent back but then Luna punches the bird straight in the face and he falls to the ground and begins to beg for them to stop. "S-Stop… P-Please…. I didn't mean to…. I thought it would…"

Luna then grabs the parrot and she slams him to the wall of the apartment and she pins him there. "What?! You didn't mean to?! Did you know what you were doing to my son?! Do you know what you did to my boy?! You made him do stuff he didn't want to! You made him cry and messed with him!"

"You wasted everything he earned, you made him steal from me, you threatened him with something that was personal to him, and fucking worst of all… You laughed at my son!" Luna then throws him to Sam and Sam uses her bass and hits the bird and he's now on the ground.

Michelle places her foot on the casted wing, and she walks over it and this breaks the cast and Sergio screams in pain, followed by Jordan who grabs the other cast and then throws it away, she then picks up the parrot by the neck.

"You make other birds look bad, especially your own god damn kind." She throws him back to Lincoln.

Sergio sees the angry eyes of the boy, the same boy he blackmailed. "You made me do stuff that was horrible and wrong, you forced me to use the cash my family has and then you wasted the money I had for some useless marshmallow cannon!"

Lincoln places the bat onto the wing of the bird. "N-No… Please, I'm… I'm s-sorry…. I just…"

Lincoln hits the bat hard and this makes the parrot screech from the pain coming from his other wing. Sergio scrambles around on his legs and tries to run away, but then Harriet grabs the parrot.

The parrot sees the ghost looking towards him, she then reveals her eyes and she screams in his face, and Sergio sees what bears through her hollowed out spectral eyes and all the color on the parrot is gone. Sergio then passes out, with his eyes wide open.

Harriet tosses the bird to Rosa and she catches him. "Now the deed is done. We hope that parrot learned something from all he did. Especially you, Senorita Rosa."

Rosa nods, and then she looks to the parrot who is a mess from whatever it was he saw through the ghost's eyes. Becca goes over and she begins to tend to the parrot and what he went through, but then he wakes up and screams from what happened.

Rosa holds him and Becca checks the parrot and his condition. The louds all come together, and they head back to the dropship, Lincoln leans close to his mom and she puts her arm around him, but then they stop when they hear a pigeon sound. "Wait what?"

They all look up and spot… "Sancho?!" The odd and bruised up pigeon, they see him fly to them with other pigeons and they drop the large bag and it has the words "Sergio's Stash." Written on it, and this makes them all confused.

Sergio sees this and he panics. "N-No, that's the money…. The cash I swindled from…I mean…"

Hearing this makes Lincoln angry, he then throws the bat to Sergio and he's knocked out cold, and the bat bounces off and goes back to Sam who catches it. They go over and see the cash and they are surprised, it's a lot of cash.

Lincoln looks to Sancho. "Thank you." Lincoln grabs the bruised up pigeon and he hugs the little guy and Sancho returns the embrace.

Luna smiles at this and so do the others, then another pigeon hands Luna a note and she reads it. "Says here, that this cash was well-hidden somewhere at the border of Michigan, and buried six feet under, and the amount of cash in here is… More than 700,000 bucks?!"

This surprises everyone, then Michelle goes over and she reads it. "Also says here, Sergio calls this his backup arrest money. He'd one day use this when his familia does get into trouble that he may or not have caused."

Delilah smirks. "Huh, well this cash looks like it's enough to pay back what was from Carl, and also payback some of the cash missing from the louds account."

Then Sam asks. "Wait, where did he get this cash from?"

Then Sancho hands Ronnie Anne the note and so she reads it. "Says here, Sergio has been saving tons of cash he found, or took from others when they weren't looking. Some of the cash is from others who owed him, or from stuff he sold to other folks and animals."

Rosa gasps and is in tears, and Hector goes over and comforts her, all this time Sergio has been nothing more than a scoundrel who has been taking stuff without asking.

Luna can tell that the parrot has done far more troubling stuff even before he was dubbed trouble. 'There has to be a reason why Sergio is like this. Someone, must've shaped him into what he is now, or he saw something and went with it. Something tells me something on TV made Sergio Casagrande.'

Luna watches as they sort out the cash to split between the Casagrandes and the louds, but then Luna gets a text message and she sees whose it from and she smiles at who it is.

Commander Freezer Burn. Louds, come tomorrow we're coming to you guys. We'll begin the first lesson of training, and Luna Frost and Sam Livewire are coming with me. We can't wait to help you guys with self-defense training class.

Luna puts her phone away and watches as Lincoln pets Sancho and gives him a cracker, and the other pigeons just fly off. 'That pigeon isn't so bad. He's not a bad bird, like Sergio, and now tomorrow we're gonna have our first lesson, with our hero counterparts.'

To be continued in the next chapter.

A/N: Well, that pain was enough to make things done between them and Sergio, and thank you Sancho for the stash Sergio stored away and possibly forgot, and come next chapter is the arrival of their counterparts from the story "Spells and Louds." Leave a review and tell me what you all think.

FYI: I fucking hate Sergio so, so much.
