Adapting to a new life. Chapter 7 (Help?)
Later on in the forests surrounding Rio animals were carrying on with there daily lives surrounded from society by enormous thick bushes and leaves that had fallen off their host tree suddenly one of the bushes began to rattle and shake violently, this went on for about a couple of seconds before a Blue figure burst threw the natural wall and preformed a barrel roll 'like in one of them action packed movies'. Joe looked around him to check on how far he had managed to get in the last couple of minutes he looked over his shoulder acting all brave for even daring to enter the big bad forest But that bravery didn't last long as he saw his last position before he started his journey...about 10 feet away.
"Ha, I guess its a good start at least right?" Joe asked himself while nervously laughing to himself.
Joe then thought of an idea!, after looking over towards the building he was planning to 'Pay a visit to' and his route ahead, what if he could get on top of any tree that looks big and then glide his way from there avoiding all the nasty surprises that mother nature had prepared for him (There was a small valley between them by the way). But before he could implement his plans he noticed a Monk Parakeet slicing the stem of a bunch of berry's and eating them in a un civilised way. Slowly Joe began to back up while keeping his eyes on it, He had read books about the wild life and how quickly they can change and he wanted none of it. To his Delight he bumped into a tall tree that had other smaller ones close by for him to climb onto.
"Right then the sooner the better" Joe whispered to himself as he rubbed his wings together, looking at the first he would climb.
Each tree took him soon time to climb and other birds who flew past wondered why in earth was he climbing?. Eventually only when he was near covered in sweat and gasping for air he managed to fling his body onto the tallest tree out of the lot, landing on his back and taking a small little break.
"Note for when I get back; Stay off them treats and start exercising" Joe instructed himself while getting finishing off his small victory break.
He stood at the edge of the tree that was opposite to the 'Building' and slowly but steadily run to the other side expanding his wings but not flapping them since there wasn't no point and could distract him. He was soon off the ground completely and swiftly heading threw the forest by this rate he will be there in no time! now that he had the free time to himself his head started thinking about his true owner and what has he been doing ever since. One of Joes memoires started to take over his mind...
(MEMOIRE)
It was a very warm and sunny day in Ireland which is rare to happen and Daniel had a small blink fold over his young pets eyes, carrying him in his hands towards their living room which was decorated in banners saying "Happy 7th Birthday!" and "Best of wishes", Balloons, presents but most importantly...A cake! made to show off all the ingredients. Dan then sat the young Macaw down and ran over to the cake leaving Joe to walk in circles.
"Happy Birthday Joe!" Daniel shouted happily, removing Joes blind fold and revealing the cake!."
Joe started to jump up and down with every jump leading closer and closer to the cake But just as he could taste it Dan stopped him and sat the cake down, picking up cards to replace it.
"You need to open your cards silly" Dan laughed with his broken voice at the time.
He then sat the cards down next to Joe who ran over to them and started to use his talons to make a little cut for his beak to open the card. There were 3 in total; the first one was from Dan himself with a small photo of him and Joe from ages go inside. The next one was from his friends which was nothing more than what you would normally from your friends but the last one was from someone who he really wanted to see...His parents, Dan had made fake cards so that Joe wouldn't feel different from others who knew their parents and just seeing that his parents were actually there it always made him happy. Inside the card there was a small mirror that Joe looked into and under Neath it read "You've grown so much so quickly I can barely believe it!, I got your posts yesterday and I hope that Daniels treating you good! We're so proud of you enjoy your special day. "
(END OF MEMOIRE)
Suddenly Joe woke up from hi day dream to find himself descending quickly but by the time he was able to get back In control he was already in the tree line. Branch after branch he swayed to avoid them, unknown to him however there was something In his way that he couldn't get past. in front of him was a very dense area of trees that only had about 30cm between them. With all his strength he pushed his body up in an effort to go over it but it only half-worked although he did get over it, his talon caught onto a small twig and twirled him around causing him to become a spinning rocket aiming for the ground. Fortunately for him he slide across mud and fell onto grass.
"Argh, why does this always happen to me?" Joe said with his face in the ground.
"Oh what do we have here?" A mumbled voice asked.
Instantaneously Joe bounced up to see a red head female wearing glasses and a lab coat followed behind here was a man also wearing a lab coat and glasses but they were both different type. This was the first time that humans from here didn't try and capture him straight away but he could take that chance ever since he came here he's been taken away by different people and they could be the same. He clenched and raised his wings.
"Hey buddy what happened to you?" The man asked while slowly extending his hand out to Joe who quickly moved after every time he tried to get close to him.
"BACK OFF!" Joe shouted but to them it was just a loud squawk.
"Linda I may need your help he's hurt but wont accept help" The man asked.
"Help?, ha the first second I lower my guard ill be in a cage" Joe responded.
The red headed female walked over to him and also extended her hand.
"WILL YOU BOTH GET OUT OF MY SPACE BEFORE I START SWINGING!" Joe shouted, grabbing a stick for self defensive.
But they both continued to 'try' and be friendly to him but suddenly the Man got up and raised his finger in a gesture that he knew what to do. He bent his arms and touched his waist, flapping his arms and trying to impersonate a bird even trying to make squawking sounds.
"Right I'm scared" Joe whispered as he slowly made his way for a leave to cover his escape.
But just as most of his body was conceal something grabbed his tail feathers and pulled him up. Joe struggled and started clawing at Linda's hand hoping that she would let go.
"Let go of..." Joe was interrupted as he was injected with anaesthetic causing him to drift off to sleep.
"Why did you do that Tulio?" Linda asked.
"He was getting more and more aggressive I had to anyways we need to bring him back to the aviary, judging from the wounds to the head and how pale the poor bird is he has had a long day. Tulio responded.
