Final Chapter, Let's go!
I may do a third installment of the series later but for now enjoy the final chapter of this story.
Pls review :)
Blu limped to the jade blade on the other side of the destroyed table in the war hollow, he grasped the blade with his wing, lifting it up.
He felt a tingling sensation work it's way through his body, his one working eye turning a slight green in color.
He suddenly heard Lai's voice whisper to him, "use my power, Blu. use it to destroy your enemies".
Blu shook his head before looking to the entrance.
He walked to the entrance of the hollow and saw the battlefield, the petrified masses of birds gazing upon the evil hawk known as Prev, holding a struggling Alex with his talons.
Blu's heart now filled with anger, he jumped out of the hollow and rocketed towards Prev.
He let a battle cry erupt from the deepest parts of his throat.
Prev dropped Alex and put his blade up in self defense, Blu swung the jade blade down and onto Prev's sword.
The ensuing explosion was a mix of green, blue thunder and red super strength.
The 2 birds now fought with a fierceness never seen before.
Sparks flew everywhere, igniting the dry leaves on the ground.
Small flames now danced in the breeze as the 2 birds continued their seemingly endless duel.
Prev had finally met someone who was somewhat of a match for him.
But Prev still had a couple tricks left up his sleeve.
He kicked Blu's chest with as much strength as he could muster, sending Blu flying to his army.
Blu flipped a couple times in the air before orienting himself so that he landed on his talons, the metal tips of his battle claws scratching along the stone ground.
He looked to Jewel and his family who now ran up to him.
Blu looked at jewel and smiled, he felt kind of guilty for keeping his identity a secret.
More soon came up next to him, Lukhas, Rico, Tomada, Sorell, Angelo, Zain, blue phoenix, Nico, Pedro, Rafael, Eva, Skyler, Otulissa, Soren, the band and the rest of the army.
"Let's kill this hawk!" screamed Blu before charging, with all his friends following.
Prev lead the 40,000 hawks he had left against the now 5,000 bird strong force of the Rio Army and guardians.
Blu threw the jade blade forward, holding onto the chain.
He swung it through the line of hawks, slaughtering 20 of them.
The 2 armies rejoined the battle.
Alex was still weak near Prev, who grinned and put his talon on the snow owl, holding him down.
"You are strong Alex, but you are still weak compared to me. Gaze upon the earth, for this will be the last time you see it".
Alex looked at his friends, and Skyler who now noticed the predicament Alex was in.
She, Blu and Jewel rushed over to Prev, trying to stop the hawk before the unthinkable happened.
But as life is never fair, it made the snow owl a loser of it's game.
Alex closed his eyes, waiting for the blade to enter his body and end his life.
Instead he felt, nothing.
Alex opened his eyes to see Blu, standing in front of the snow owl with the blade inside of him. "BLU!" screamed Jewel, tears streaming down her face.
Prev expected the macaw to collapse to the ground when he took his sword out, but Blu stood there grinning.
His wound now gushed with blood, but Blu still did not care.
His eye (he only had one working eye left) began to glow blue and green, Lai's blade had lighting crackling all over it, his normally cerulean feathers had a green tint to them and Lai's voice screamed in Blu's head.
"Yes, use my power macaw. Use it to kill those you hate".
The lightning he had cauterize the wound, stopping all bleeding and healing the cut.
Blu looked Prev dead in the eye, hate overflowing from the blue macaws body.
Oh I intend to make him suffer for his crimes, thought Blu.
Blu let out a mighty battle cry and urged his body forward, charging prev.
Prev grinned and returned the charge.
At the last second Blu slid on the ground and through Prev's legs before rising behind him and cutting down the hawks back, leaving glowing green cuts.
Prev screamed in pain and before he could even recover Blu had the hawk in a headlock, crushing his neck.
Blu threw Prev towards the stone wall next to the waterfall, the hawks body cracked the cliff face, and as he fell huge pieces of the cliff fell with him.
When the stone pieces hit the water's surface massive waves were sent out in all directions.
Prev swam to one of the boulders, managing to drag himself onto the massive stone before glaring at Blu.
The 2 had their gazes meet for 30 seconds before Jewel flew next to Blu, noticing his eyes and feathers.
She was happy that her mate was alive, but something was wrong with him.
"Blu what's wro-" she was silenced when she heard Blu's voice, but it wasn't his.
"HE KILLED STEELER AND ATTACKED OUR HOME! I AM GOING TO TEAR HIM TO SHREDS!".
Blu then flew forward again, throwing his blade towards Prev who just dodged it and charged forward.
Blu managed to pull his blade back just in time to block a strike fro Prev.
Green sparks flew from the blades as they met, the small fires that had started earlier were now a raging inferno, bathing the forest in a red glow.
Thankfully due to the rain from the thunderstorm the inferno was not a full fledged forest fire.
But back to the fight.
The sounds of the surrounding battle was not registering in Blu's ears, all he heard was the yelling of Prev and the crack of thunder.
His green blade glowed with every strike he sent to Prev.
Blu kept striking, giving the hawk no time to react.
Blu cut off Prev's left wing, listening to the sound of the hawk screaming as he saw his wing fall to the ground.
All who watched Blu fight cringed or looked away, but Blu continued his onslaught.
"This is for Steeler!", he cut off one of Prev's toes.
"This is for Alex!" he cut off Prev's beak.
"AND THIS IS FOR EVERYONE ELSE YOU HAVE EVER HURT!".
Blu then plunged his blade straight into Prev, blood splattering onto his beak and feathers.
Prev went limp and stopped flapping moving.
Blu threw the deceased hawk to the ground, where he continue punching the corpse.
Jewel and the others just watched as Blu let his inner darkside out.
Blu then took a step back, everyone gave a sigh of relief thinking he had finally stopped.
But Blu just lifted his wings to the sky, where a bolt of green lighting erupted down to the corpse of Prev.
The lighting electrocuted the corpse before sending off a green explosion.
When the dust settled they saw the corpse of Prev, petrified into a jade statue.
Blu turned and dropped the blade.
The moment he did his eye returned to being chocolate brown, his feathers to cerulean and he collapsed to the ground gasping for air.
Jewel rushed to his side, helping her mate recover from the fight and cover his now bloody eye.
Blu looked behind him to the corpse of Prev, he looked away and began to vomit blood.
Jewel was now really worried for Blu.
"What did I do?" asked Blu shakily.
Jewel put on a face of surprise, "you don't know?".
Blu shook his head, Jewel then told him.
Every single detail, from Alex's death to how he killed Prev.
Blu could not believe he did such a thing, then it hit him.
"The blade, there is something about the blade. I heard Lai's voice, he is that blade. The blade is Lai" said Blu in a frantic voice.
As he was talking he accidently opened his wounded eye and screamed a little in pain before covering the wound.
"We should probably get that checked out" said Jewel before kissing Blu, "but we can do that later. All I care about is the fact that, you're back! I missed you so much".
I smiled, "I know, I watched the funeral from the the roofs of houses and I must say, damn good funeral you guys put on".
Jewel let a single tear escape her eye, "well I did think you were gone forever".
Blu smiled before hearing the sound of 3 young macaws behind him, "DAD!" exclaimed Blu's offspring.
Blu turned and gave his children a long overdue hug, "we missed you so much".
"I missed you too" replied Blu, still hugging his young.
Alex, Skyler, Rico, Tomada, Sorell and all their new friends ran up to them.
"Blu, the hawks saw you kill Prev. They're all retreating!" declared Zain in an excited voice, "you really scared them".
Blu chuckled, "I scared myself. I mean, look at sir jades a lot over there" and Blu gestured towards the petrified corpse of Prev.
All those present looked at the statue and cringed.
Rico asked a question, "How did you do that?".
Blu gestured towards the green blade, "it was really weird using that thing. It was like I could hear Lai's voice talking to me".
Angelo put on a worried face, "This does not sound good".
Blu shrugged his shoulders, "who's up for a celebration?".
Everyone present nodded before helping Blu up and taking him to the medical tree so he could get his eye fixed.
3 days later
The celebration for the defeat of Prev was well underway.
Food and drinks were being served at the bar, Nico and Pedro were on a stage providing the music for the party with Twilight helping out, while birds danced and talked to each other having a pretty good time generally.
Lukhas was breakdancing in the middle of the party while rico tried to outdo him.
The guardians of Valhalla decided to come celebrate, the peacocks were having a drinking competition, but as they were immortal beings it took a lot to get them drunk.
They were on their 150th shot each and they were only slightly tipsy.
Blu and Jewel were at the bar next to Soren and Otulissa, enjoying some beer and each others company.
The 2 couples were talking with each other about how they met and how they got to where they are.
Soren told the story about his great fight against metal beak and his brother before falling in love with Otulissa.
"You had to fight your brother, me too. But I ended up having to kill him" said Blu, thinking back to Reidak.
Soren then asked, "how did you meet?".
Jewel smiled and dived into the story about Blu coming to the amazon, fighting gods, villains and emperors and how he died to Lai.
Soren and Otulissa were listening intently to every word the female macaw said.
"So Blu is a real nerd bird" said Jewel, playfully.
Soren chuckled, "you and Otulissa should hang out, she is a very smart bird herself".
Otulissa smiled at the compliment.
She and Soren then stood up and walked away, presumably to talk to the band.
Blu and Jewel now smiled at each other, Jewel looking into his one remaining eye as the other was covered by a black eye patch.
The 2 smiled before taking each other's hands and walking to a tree branch a little farther away from the party.
They watched the moon light bathe the jungle in pale light, the 2 enjoyed the sight until Blu said something, "this view is second in beauty to one thing," he turned to Jewel, "your beauty".
Jewel blushed fiercely at the compliment, "Oh stop" she said, flattered by her mates compliment.
"I'm serious. I really love you, the most painful part of the past several weeks was not the pain from the battle, or the anxiety of being in a new place. It was the thought of being away from you, so when I saw you break down at my funeral it broke my heart. I wanted to run up and hug you, tell you I was still alive and that all would be okay. But seeing as I was not allowed to interfere with mortals I just flew off and downed 3 bottles of vodka then returned to Valhalla".
Jewel put her head to Blu's chest, "never leave me again my love hawk, please".
Blu put his wing around Jewel, "I never will, I promise".
"These weeks were hard for me too, I had to deal with the thought of you never returning with helping Bia overcome her guilt about attacking Tiago and Carla. Everywhere I looked something reminded me of you. Books, fruit, places you name it. I cried myself to sleep every night and woke up in a puddle of tears and sweat. When you came as Reynard I saw things that reminded me of you too. Your fighting style, walking motions and general interests. When i found out you really were alive I felt joy and fear for you as you faced Prev".
Blu smiled at Jewel, "I feared for your safety in that fight. I did not care about my self, as seen when I got stabbed for Alex".
Jewel then asked how he survived the strike, to which Blu shrugged his shoulders before looking to Jewel and slowly moving closer to Jewel, who did the same.
The 2 lovers met with a passionate kiss, which lasted for almost a minute.
When the 2 lovers separated they continued to watch the moon, basking in it's pale light.
Jewel leaned onto Blu, "Life is perfect. Absolutely perfect".
The End
