A Bad Gift. (Chapter 8)
I'm going to try and get chapter 8,9 and maybe 10 done tonight because I don't have a lot of time in the weekdays especially this one. So here we go Chapter 8 of A bad Gift.
Blu and his team where now crossing the border between the Blue Spix and the Scarlet macaws, every now and then they would have to take cover or scramble out of sight apon hearing or seeing another bird that they know isn't in the Resistance.
"How long do we have to fly for!, we nearly got discovered back their." The Scarlet complained because their last encounter only gave them a second or two to hide.
"Not long now just be cautious from now on, everyone's going to be out at this time." Blu responded, checking over his shoulders. "Hey how are you three holding up back their, any trouble?." He added.
"No sir."
"Negative."
"All good." They all replied in response.
During the next 10 minutes more and more infected Macaws were appearing in front of them sometimes looking directly at them and they would have to go on the offensive and prevent it from shout to others. But their hopes soon lit up as Blu's hollow was only about a couple of seconds away.
"Alright we're here, keep quite and be vigilant." Blu told everyone as they landed on a branch connected to the entrance/exit.
Everyone tip-toed their way in and just like the practiced two of Blu's team stayed at the entrance/exit of the hollow as a lookout for any 'unexpected guests'. Blu went a little faster as he knew where everything was in the hollow.
"Alright it should be right...AH." Blu was about to finish but while taking to others he tripped on something warm..
He swiftly turned his head to see his sleeping angel, Jewel snoring her head off and laying close by to the page. Blu swallowed back some fear as he slowly approached the page that was touching Jewels wing. Meanwhile The Scarlet Macaw and the other Spix macaw froze on the spot just staring at everything that's happening.
"Should we..." The Spix macaw was about to say before being cut off.
"SHHHH." The Scarlet Macaw ordered.
Blu got on his knees as he began to slide the page from under Jewels wing and be silent as the same time.
"Come on!." Blu thought to himself.
"Sir we have an issue." One of the look outs told the Scarlet.
"What?." He responded while walking over to the entrance.
What he say certainly shocked him a lot, Four Infected Blue Macaws leaded by Roberto himself were approaching the hollow at a slow speed but where close by.
"Go tell Blu to hurry up!, we don't have much time." The Scarlet Macaw command as the lookout ran over to Blu.
Before he could say anything he stuttered little as Blu was trapped underneath Jewels wing with Jewel herself still asleep and another Blu macaw trying to help him. Slowly Blu pointing to the page laying at a corner as the lookout instantly tip-toed to retrieve it.
"We need to hurry we have guests coming." He whispered to Blu directly at the side of his head so Jewel wouldn't hear it.
After telling Blu he also began to help get Blu out of the sleepy Jewels cruel trap of cuddling.
"3...2...1...lift!." He said he Jewels wing began to give way to four wings lifting it, just long enough for Blu to roll away. Then softly settling it back down.
"Thanks now come on!." Blu said as they all rushed to the entrance/exit and saw The scarlet Macaw trying to get Roberto off the other lookout in mid air outside the hollow.
Blu suddenly took flight and tried to help them out by knocking into the other infected Macaws with his head, sending 1 flying into a tree.
"That'll teach you!" Blu proudly complimented himself but it was short lived as Roberto used the Scarlet Macaw as a missile making both of them hit their heads off each other.
"What's your head made off!." The Scarlet macaw shouted as he used both of his wings to either hid a little tear of to rub his head. Same with Blu except he didn't say anything and just grunted.
Roberto soon laughed but then was attack by the other 3 members of Blu's team as they tried to fend him off. But then the other 2 members of Roberto's patrol joined in and got the advantage.
"Help!." The Fighters kept asking.
Blu and The Scarlet macaw were about to join in but then a familiar female voice echoed around the area.
"ROBERTOOO!." Jewel screamed from her hollow, with her eyes still closed.
"Yes, master?." Roberto backed off before lowering his head.
Everyone froze on the spot if Jewel started to help Roberto they would be out matched. Suddenly Jewel fell backwards onto her back and went back into her deep sleep again.
"Pffeeewwww." Blu whipped the sweat from his head.
Thinking that they would try and escape any way they could Roberto hatched a plan that would finally end the Resistance.
"Everyone come on we need to go see if Jewel is okay!." Roberto told everyone and began to fly up to the hollow.
Just as he thought Blu and the rest took flight away from the area and instantly Roberto chased after them.
"Now lets see where you all hide" He thought to himself as he stayed low and kept following the last one. A couple of Minutes later everyone stopped outside the Slope with the rock entrance and the Scarlet Macaw knocked on the door, opening it and walking inside. Once everyone was in the two guards scanned the area then moved the rock back into place.
"Ooohh, Perfect little hiding spot you all have. It would be a shame if...anyone knew about it Heheheh." Roberto said to himself as he began to fly away back to Jewel to tell her everything. "Especially when we show them our brand new way of infecting!" He added in mid flight.
Inside the Hiding spot Blu placed the page on the table, allowing everyone to see what it all said. Making Blu true to his word as it detailed everything on and about it...even how to cure it.
"Congratulations!, now we'll had this over to our professionals and they'll make something in no time!." Chief applauded gracefully. "In the meantime go help your self's to some food and water I bet your starving after that ey?." he added.
Suddenly Blu's stomach began to grumble indicating to everyone that food was next on his list.
"Hahah, yeah I guess so." Blu laughed it off and walked out with The scarlet macaws' stomach growling as well he also joined Blu.
Well now...What's going to happen to the Resistance and will they be able to create a cure in time? stayed tuned because I'm literally going to work on the next chapter now xD
