Into The Unknown - Chapter 16 (End)
This will be the last chapter of this story I just want to say thank you for spending you time reading this.
The Morning sunshine forced it's way into the hollow expecting to wake up the decreased family of macaws living in it, but they were already up (most of them anyways) and ready to enjoy their day firstly going by to pick up the husband of the family then secondly to spend some family time together. Jewel was leaning against the entrance/exit or the hollow staring back at the sun appearing from the distant trees while Carla and Bia employed all their methods of waking up Tiago who just rolled off to the over side after every interaction.
"Here let me do it!" Carla said, grabbing one of Bia's books "Last chance bro".
"Another 5 minutessssss" Tiago softly told Carla while Turing on his side .
"Pfff you're fault!" Carla responded then slammed the Book onto Tiagos back causing him to fall out of the nest and onto the floor"
"FINE IM UP!" Tiago shouted .
Carla and Bia flew over to Jewel and stood beside her waiting on Tiago who eventually flew on over with one his wings rubbing his back. Jewel looked at them.
"You ready?" Jewel asked .
They all nodded back at her to which she jumped out the entrance and started to fly followed by the rest. They happily glided past branches and fellow birds who most took part in the hunt last night. Eventually they found the hollow that Blu was resting in or so they thought?. Once they landed outside Mimi's home Jewel shouted her name first to see if she was in before entering.
"Hello?, anyone in" Jewel said, walking in .
"Yea of course I am its too early to do most things" Mimi responded as she emerged into the light "So is Blu doing okay?".
Jewels eyes widened.
"Wait he isn't here?" Jewel worrying asked.
"No he left like a hour ago, said he was going to surprise you!" Mimi responded.
Suddenly a soft thud was heard from the entrance of the hollow Jewel immediately looked back to see her husband with no marks on him only a bandage made from a leave stuck to his side. She quickly ran over to him and wrapped her wings around his back..
"So what did I miss?" Blu asked, returning the hug.
"Nothing.. but this" Jewel responded then pulling him in a deep kiss which lasted for some time.
"Ewwwwww mum and dad are making out!" Tiago screeched.
Finally the separated and gazed into each other eyes, behind them Tiago instantly remembered that he really never got revenge for Carla playing golf with his body so he silently went outside and started to look vines after he acquired some he tied them to make small handcuffs for her legs. he went back in slowly adjusted the knots around Carla's legs then tightened them a bit so she would notice or easily walk out of them.
"Now then lets go home" Blu told everyone then flew on out.
Jewel smiled and quickly followed him, Tiago and Bia did the same but when Carla decided to go she tried to run to the exit but she tripped over the vines that were on here legs and face planted the floor. Mimi noticed this and quickly untied her .
"I swear you can really be annoying sometimes" She grunted, flying out the hollow and catching up on the rest .
Blu was in front of everyone and more faster which brought some suspension to Jewel but she just shrugged it off and flew more faster to catch up on him finally when they were near their tree Blu slowed down and landed on a branch outside it waiting on the rest to do the same.
"Come on are we going in or?" Jewel questioned.
"Wait here a minute all of you" Blu responded excitedly as he flew on in.
Jewel looked over at the kids with a confused face on her but the kids just shrugged their shoulders.
"Come on in!" Blu shouted.
Jewel who was overwhelmed with curiosity swiftly flew in first and saw what Blu had done... There was Fruits and nuts all piled up in a corner with the old ones being disposed with, the hollow was decorated with wet leaves making them shine and Blu had Carla's iPod in his wings .
"Ta-dah!" Blu yelled.
"How?...How did you do this or even when?" Jewel asked while looking at the leaves that were positioned in a way that they made the hollow look more better than normally .
"I was waiting on you all too leave so I could get to work then after I just went to Mimi's knowing that that's where you all would be" Blu responded while unlocking the iPod "Come here I need to show you the photos I took".
They all sat around Blu looking straight at him.
"What does this remind you off?" Blu asked as he revealed the screen of the iPod .
It was the photo of when they were all at the ancient structure or "Grey Duplex" and it showed Blu panicking with the flash light, Jewel hiding her eyes and a couple of Macaws behind him with angry faces on them.
"Yea..by the way for at least 20 minutes after that I kept seeing white circles every time I blinked." Jewel informed .
"Hey I didn't mean to!" Blu defended himself "Alright, alright how about this?" .
This time the photo was of the Vine traps near the border but it also showed Carla being stuck in it and Tiago plus some other bird trying to pull her out by the talons.
"Hahahahahaha remember that sis?" Tiago mockingly asked.
"Why did you have to show that photo for?" Carla yelled at Blu.
"I didn't mean to i was trying to find the calculator" Blu responded with sweat running down the side of his head. "Next photo trust me this one is a good one".
But before he could show everyone it the screen went blank with a battery icon flashing on the front Blu walked over to the kids nest a put the IPod down then flew on back to the rest.
"Well looks like we will have to wait" Blu positively said " So what you all want to do today?".
"Well I was thinking that we should go find Caio and finish the tour as he said he would" Jewel gave her idea.
"I would think that you out of all birds wouldn't want to do that again!" Blu confusingly responded.
"Don't worry since 'Bob' wont be bothering us anymore it should be perfectly safe also I bet that Caio wont make the same mistake twice" Jewel said while bringing her children into a group hug.
"Fine then if that's what you all want to do" Blu said, looking at the kids who just nodded their heads "When will he be up? I mean its pretty early in the morning".
"Don't worry most of the Scarlet Macaws start their day very early just like some of us now lets go!" Jewel ordered as she flew out of the hollow with Tiago,Carla and Bia tagging along behind her.
Before Blu took off he looked over and remembered about the fruits that he had collected, he ran over and grabbed a couple with his talons and flew off immediately catching up with the rest who were waiting on him. He passed the fruit over to each one of them and started to eat on their flight over to find the tour guide, on the border line there was two Scarlet Macaws leaning against a tree, Blu offered to fly over and ask them about where to find him.
"Hi" Blu greeted.
"Hello what's up?" One of the Scarlet's answered .
"Well I need your help you see I'm looking for a Scarlet Macaw with the name of Caio? have you perhaps heard or seen this bird" Blu asked.
"Yea He actually lives around the corner there he prefers to be close to the borders for some reason" The other Scarlet answered
Thank you" Blu thanked as he took flight again and headed in the direction he was told to go to .
When the arrived they noticed a smaller flock of birds of both species Blue Spixs and Scarlet standing in a opened area with Caio standing on a rock straightening his feathers.
"Excuse me, is yesterdays tour being continued today?" Blu asked Caio.
He turned around to face him.
"Hey I remember you, yea from yesterday did you find your son?" He responded.
"Yea that's right...wait how did you now my son went missing?" Blu questioned with suspicion.
"Because when you left you were missing him and because we escaped the storm I guessed that you lost him in it" Caio explained "And your just in time I've already explained all the rules to them you ready?" .
"YES!" the whole family yelled .
"Then lets go!" Caio shouted as he took flight.
Suddenly all the birds that were previously standing were now shooting up into the sky and following the Scarlet who was leading the tour Blu, Jewel and the rest joining in and flew into the tree line.
