Hello to everyone I'm back with chapter 3 , last time Eclipse was asleep in his hollow , his brothers in a hot spring relaxing except for Specter who went for a snack and ended being followed by Saphire… so… I'll let you see it by yourselves
Enjoy:
Secrets uncovered
Saphire:
Sapphire was flying through lots of trees as fast as she could to catch Specter as, as a ghost macaw he was faster, but the extra weight of the fruit made Saphire able to catch him, always as silent as she was able.
When she was able to see him stopping at their home, she stopped by some near branches making sure of not being caught. When Specter disappeared, as fast as wind, she approached to the hollows first noticing Eclipse in his so she thought about two things '' well I won't be able to see his but…he looks so…#peaceful#...when he sleeps'' she was about to let herself loose in the love feeling but immediately she returned from her gazing and started to see the other hollows and learn what she could.
30 minutes later
Saphire had finished with the hollows and she was about to go home but suddenly… another squawking that she immediately recognized echoed all around the forest…
Eclipse:
As he was sleeping, (dreaming about girls more specific) He heard the same sound he heard this morning… an eagle's one.
He immediately and instinctively jumped out of his hollow using his ability to disappear, just giving enough time to Saphire to watch him '' did he…did he just changed his plumage color?...whoa now that IS something you don't see usually… but where did he go?'' she thought before watching from one of the macaws hollow (more specific Fina´s ) an eagle go zooming through the air but not with an aggressive but rather a scared expression in its face, it was the reason why Eclipse had gone, he was after the Eagle '' wow well now that´s an aggressive bird'' she though while she peered from the hollow entrance Eclipse ripping some eagle feathers and then pining the beast´s wings allowing Eclipse to make him land on its head and breaking its neck on the crash… that done he was able to listen a little and weak but fast heart beating which casually was from Saphire…
So the next thing he did was to search what was causing the sound and suddenly found himself facing a blue macaw with beautiful red ruby eyes very scared hiding in his sister´s hollow.
He calmed but at the same time nervous he approached the scared creature to try to calm it and help it to return to a good state as he tried not to scare her any more he said with a calmed, protective and reassuring voice ''hey , are you okay? Calm down I won´t hurt you''
Just to be answered with the bird´s attention and a more sacred but relieved gaze from Saphire '' are you alright, did the eagle caught you? ''Eclipse said trying to know if she was hurt and if there was something to help her with.
She snapped from her gazing and just answered '' yes, thank you I'm alright I'm sorry I invaded your hollow but it was the first one I saw to hide in'' ''don't worry, it's what everyone would have done, but it´s not mine it´s from my sister, by the way my name id Eclipse'' ''Saphire, pleased to meet you'' '' well I am not trying to bother you, but why where you here for?'' '' me, oh well…um'' she said trying to think in a good reason for her presence '' I was searching a hollow as I am leaving my parents and I need somewhere to live in, but I was unfortunately surprised by the eagle so I had to hide'' she said in a very more relieved tone as she thought she was finally out of any kind of danger (Eclipse´s rage included) '' well I'm a bit new to the forest as I´ve been traveling for 10 years and I have returned with my brothers and sister just 2 days ago but If you want I can help you to find one'' he said just trying to be friendly with her, after all she was just almost attacked by an eagle and she had just had the scare of her life ( in fact it was the second time) and in answer she said '' oh, no please I don't want to bother you '' ''don't worry you're not, after all I was just sleeping so I have nothing to do'' '' well if you insist, but I wish to know, where went the eagle?'' '' o sh… now how do I explain it?'' Eclipse thought while he showed a panic expression on his face he did wanted to tell her the truth but it would just take to explain her what was he and eventually to trouble so he was just able to say '' oh it just flew away as it was escaping from something… I don't know what it was'' he said still worried because he feared she didn´t believe him '' oh, ok then, I was just being curious, then shall we go?'' she said rather happy to go on something she classified as a pre-date but in the other hand Eclipse felt a bit uneasy , he was going to explore the forest with an unknown bird he just met in his sister´s hollow, he wasn't sure how to react , but what it seemed more weird to him was that he couldn´t stop thinking on her… she looked just…just so gorgeous, so happy , so attractive… as he finally snapped out he was just able to listen her trying to get his attention
''Eclipse,Eclipse… are you alright?'' ''huh, oh yea ,im fine just a bit worried about my brothers as the eagle is still out there and they´re out too but, don't worry I'll be alright'' '' well then we should get going, I mean… if you still want to come'' ''sure'' was the last word said before they took flight to the inner forest but during the trip he continued thinking why the sudden attraction for the blue macaw '' why can´t I stop thinking about her… why does she feel so …. Important to me?'' he couldn't realize why and just kept up the flight but going slowly as he knew he would leave her behind and call unnecessary attention…
30 minutes later:
''Well now that we´ve found a hollow… I wish to know…. Eclipse , what kind of macaw are you?'' ''why,why did she had to ask, why couldn´t she just shut up?'' Eclipse thought showing a bit of harm and anger '' i´m a black macaw but my mother was a golden one so I inherited these stripes'' he said totally lying and showing lot of harm and regret as he had to lie her, just ensure his brothers new life in Rio, Saphire noticing his expression changed the theme '' so Eclipse you told me you ve gut family here'' still showing a bit of hurt he answered '' yes I´m living with my 2 brothers and 2 sisters: Ambe, Fina, Ghost and Specter, but what about you?'' '' oh um… as I already told you I´ve been living with my parents and well… we recently reencountered with my lost sister and she had a little surprise to us'' ''huh?'' '' we found that 2 weeks ago she fell in love with another one of our endangered species'' '' wait, you mean… you´re a…spix macaw?'' ''yea,why?'' '' nothing it´s just that I thought you were just a blue macaw'' ''and well we found she had already … eggs in their hollow'' she said feeling very uncomfortable of talking about that ''well probably the guys are already back at home so I should go back I'll see you another time'' Eclipse said a bit uncomfortable too ''yea, bye'' was the only thing she was able to say knowing that the beloved one to her was hiding something but not wanting to make him feel uncomfortable she just let it down.
Several relieving minutes later Eclipse found himself on his home watching as his brothers were already asleep so he followed their example and drifted off to sleep
Well I know it´s not the big deal chapter but I needed to make those two to meet each other so I´ll see ya soon and know that soon it´ll be more interesting
