Adapting to a new life. Chapter 11 (Progress)
Outside a house there were many police vehicles parked on a side of the road with their deafening sirens still active behind them was a truck designed for handling animals. Inside 2 police officers sat beside a man who was facing a women dressed in a suit, 3 birds were being transported out of the house in a cage and from the way the women's appearance was with her suit being a bit dirty and wrinkly the officers could only suggest that she had been wearing it for some time.
"Miss. Ashely? we have evidence from forensics that you have been illegally purchasing Various pets, mainly birds to participate in...Fights?." One of the officers said while she scrolled down her note pad.
"I-I-I Don't know what your talking about sir, I was sitting in my house yesterday caring after my birds." Ashely responded "The ones that you have now taken away!." She pointed her finger towards the door.
"Don't worry if you are not guilty they will be returned to your custody but in the mean time..." The officer was about to say.
"I'm sorry but were taking too much time for all I know Joe is fighting for his life!." Dan yelled.
(The screen then cuts to Joe and the others flying peacefully through the air.)
"Now tell me what did you did with my BIRD!" Dan furiously slammed the table but was quickly pulled back by the other officer. They had been trying to get answers out of their suspect which they knew was related to the kid-nap due to forensics analysing D.N.A found on a plastic bag but they wanted her to tell the truth. Suddenly an idea appeared out of the male officer, They could try and trick her into 'Spilling the beans'. He leaned over towards the female officer and whispered something into her ear.
"Understood." The Fem. Officer nodded and escorted Dan out of the building with light resistance but she whispered the plan into his ear as well.
There was now only Ashely and the Male officer alone with no one else around. He waited for a couple of minute while looking at the door to make sure no one would interrupt them. Afterwards he looked back to see a confused women staring at him.
"Hey, its ok you may not know me but I know you. ...sort of you anyways I've actually been hired to an unknown source to prevent the police from putting you behind bars." The officer announced.
"How do I know that?." Ashley asked.
"Well you don't need to...but just think about this...Rio... there are so many gangs in this city especially in the favelas how hard do you think it would be for a cop to enjoy having more money than he gets currently? and ill tell you this I don't care if you don't except my help I'm still getting paid to 'Help you'." The officer argued.
"Well its about time!, I was wondering when I would be helped by the way I know who hired you and ill be paying him a visit soon...anyways I got this Lear's macaw yesterday and it caused nothing but issues for me, first my other birds got into a fight with him which he couldn't even defend himself!, He tried to escape and eventually when I tried to sell him for a low price guess what? I got robbed!" Ashely thankfully said quietly to the officer.
"Ok I see and one more thing...what did you call the bird?." The officer curiously asked
"Ovinho." Ashley responded.
"Right okay, lets go out the backdoor I have a pick up ride for you to escape I'll take care of the others!." The male officer said while walking out the front door and starting to chat to the others who were about to go in.
Without delay Ashley quickly bolted to the backdoor only collecting her wallet and phone in the process, once she was at the door she opened it and made haste!...but then suddenly two people in familiar uniforms appeared from each side of the door and restrained her then handcuffed her. Dan, and the two other officers came walking behind her waving a voice recorder and smiling.
"What did you find from her?." Joe asked.
"She did get a bird yesterday and it is a Lear's macaw but the name you said it was, 'Joe' are you sure it wasn't 'Ovinho'.? The male officer asked.
"Na, She probably just gave him a different name and thanks for the help" Joe replied
"We'll sent word out about a missing macaw with the descriptions you wrote down we'll contact you if we find anything." The Fem. officer finally said.
Dan then nodded and proceeded to walk away from the scene.
(MEANWHILE WITH JOE.)
Blu and the rest of his family were flying peacefully under the Christ the redeemer statue enjoying their flight and mini adventure the sun beams had penetrated the thin layers of cloud blocking out the sky. Joe on the other hand was struggling to match their speed and began to trail behind, if it wasn't for Tiago looking behind him every so often they might of even lost him! they all slowed down to allow the macaw catch up.
"Why are you so slow?." Carla asked.
"What do you mean?, this is like nearly the fastest I've ever went!." Joe responded. "Its probably because you get out more."
"Right just so were clear...you completely forgive me?, I don't want to be hanging off a cliff and asking for you help only to be walked away on." Joe asked Jewel.
"Yea don't worry it was all Nigel's fault." Jewel said.
"Now were would your owner be." Blu asked.
"He could be at many place's but I know where we were staying... that should help." Joe mumbled.
"Yeah were is it?." Blu asked.
"Its a tall building with a cone shaped roof." Joe replied.
Since they were in a vantage point to see most of the city they started to look for any buildings that matched the description and eventually after checking out a couple of buildings they finally found the right one. But just then something popped into Tiagos mind.
"Wait, how are we going to get in.? wont they freak out or something?" Tiago asked.
"Nope, we reserved online near the middle just look threw the windows until you see the number 068 on the door." Joe responded as they all went separate directions.
After another couple of minutes of everyone searching threw windows Carla was the lucky one who found the digits on the door. Everyone quickly went over to her and landed on the window edge while looking in Joe looked at the bottom of the window for a moment before using his wings to lift the whole thing allowing Blu and all to enter the room.
"Well he's not here." Jewel said
"Then I don't know were he is, I guess we are just going to have to wait for him to return." Joe answered.
Blu then nudged Jewel then smiled at her indicating that he had something in mind for them to do in the meantime. Jewel then smiled back and they both looked over at Joe.
"Well we know a place were time literally fly by!." Blu spoke.
"Were?." Joe asked with curiosity written on his face.
"Follow us." Jewel responded while re-opening the window.
Suddenly Blu and Jewel hopped out of the window and started to fly away followed by Tiago, Bia and Carla Joe stared at them for a minute wondering what they were up to but he just shrugged it off and swiftly took flight attempting to catch up on them.
