So, their journey to return home had begun. The 10 Bird's decided to get comfy with being in a plane for a few hours. Lola had just finished rocking Yuri in her wings, to put him to sleep. "Goodnight, Yuri."

"Goodnight, Mommy." Yuri replied, closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep.

Lola smiled, and looked over at everyone else. Arlene, Leo, Nico, Pedro was already sleeping peacefully. Lev came over to Lola a put both her wings around her for warmth. "Goodnight, Lev."

"Goodnight, Lola." Lev replied, resting his chin on her head.

After a few seconds the Russian Macaw family were already sound asleep. Now, only: Jewel, Rico were still awake.

Rico walked over to Jewel, who was stroking her husbands head. "Jewel, you should keep some rest?"

"How can I sleep?" Jewel asked, still stroking Blu's head. "I'm worried for him."

"Jewel, he'll be fine. I promise." Rico reassured.

"But, what if-"

"Jewel..." Rico said, placing a wing on her shoulder. "Blu will be fine. We'll get him back to Rio, and then We'll take him to Tulio, immediately."

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Thank's, Rico." Jewel smiled, putting her wings around Rico into a hug. "I'm so glad you're back."

"I'm back, Jewel," Rico replied, also hugging in-return. "And I'll never be gone, again.

Jewel smiled and released Rico from the hug. She looked at her clawed wing-and-body. "I hope this doesn't leave a scar."

"Nah, don't worry." Rico reassured. "It'll heal. But, you're gonna need some bandages when we get home."

"I guess." Jewel agreed, stroking her bad wing with her good wing.

"I'm gonna get some sleep." Rico said, lying down on the plane floor and closing his eyes.

Jewel grinned and laid down closer to Blu, and slowly-put her wings around Blu's neck for comfort. Blu peaked one eye open to see Jewel laying besides him. Blu smiled and whispered: "Hey, Angel."

"Hi, Lovehawk." Jewel whispered in-return. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm in a LOT of pain." Blu answered, grunting a little.

"It'll be ok, Blu. Soon, we're gonna be home. Soon, this wall all be a funny memory, someday." Jewel reassured, smiling.

"I hope so." Blu replied, looking at his broken wing. Blu rested his head down on Jewel's chest-"Goodnight, Jewel."-and drifted off to sleep.

Jewel smiled and closed her turquoise eyes and fell asleep herself.

There journey back home is almost over. Stay tuned for chapter 24.
