Rio the Darkness 5: Alternative Darkness

Hey, everyone. Sorry this was a couple days late. I finally get my new contact lenses tomorrow, so I will be writing 100 percent easier again. Well, here is the next chapter in this story. Enjoy


After the ride in the limo the get to their wedding reception, the newly married couple Tulio and Linda, along with Blu and Jewel were all enjoying their wedding reception.

Linda and Tulio were with both of their families, getting to know each other, and celebrating to the newly married couple. And while the humans were enjoying themselves, the macaws Blu and Jewel were both standing on a wooden support beam across the ceiling.

Blu was merely watching Linda and Tulio and their families, but Jewel however, was munching away on the sweet delicious mangoes Blu had promised her.

He turned back to Jewel, who had her beak stuffed in a mango. "Jewel, do you have any manners?"

"Mph." Jewel muffed, her beak still stuffed in a mango, sucking up all the juicy taste in it. She finished the mango and burped while leaning down on the support beam. "Wow, I am stuffed. I couldn't eat another bite."

"Well, you have had about ten mangoes in the last hour." Blu replied, frowning as he could see Jewel had a bit of a tubby stomach. "No offence, Jewel. But you do look a little tubby."

"It will go away soon." Jewel replied, yawning in the middle of her sentence. "Wow, I feel sleepy."

Just then, Blu turned his attention back to the newly married couple when he saw it was time for them both to dance. He smiled while he watched Linda and Tulio move to the middle of the dance floor, and moved their arms around each other.

As they began dancing, the DJ had played a familiar tune that both Blu and Jewel remembered.

Say you, say me
Say it for always, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, naturally

Blu smiled as he turned back to the lovely Jewel, who was laying down on the support beam with her wings folded around her chest. "Jewel, does this song found familiar?"

"Yeah, it was the song that played when we first met." Jewel remembered while smiling.

I had a dream I had an awesome dream
People in the park playing games in the dark
And what they played was a masquerade
And from behind of walls of doubt a voice was crying out

Linda and Tulio slowly spun around in circles in each other's wings, their eyes closed, and Linda with her head rested down on Tulio's chest.

Say you, say me
Say it for always, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, naturally

While the humans were dancing, Blu and Jewel had decided to join in and dance too. Without saying anything, Blu took Jewel's wings and began to dance her in circles on the short beam they were standing on.

As we go down life's lonesome highway
Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two
A helping hand - someone who understands
That when you feel you've lost your way
You've got someone there to say I'll show you

Say you, say me
Say it for always, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, naturally

Blu and Jewel then looked into each other's eyes and smiled at each other. Jewel leaned her head on on Blu's shoulder, and Blu held her close to him, never wanting to let her go after she was once lost by the evil hawk Nexus.

So you think you know the answers - oh no
'cause the whole world has got you dancing
That's right - I'm telling you
It's time to start believing - oh yes
Believing who you are - you are a shining star

Say you, say me
Say it for always, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, naturally


The following day, night time had finally arrived throughout Rio. Linda and Tulio were now on their way to America for their honeymoon together. Blu and Jewel had just got back to their tree hollow, and Blu continued to dance Jewel around in their home.

"Blu..." she giggled, enjoying her husband dancing her around.

Blu finished his little dancing session and sighed. He had one of the best days in his life, and did not want it to end. Blu took off his little bowtie prepared to go to sleep and pick up the kids in the morning. "Today was fun, wasn't it, Jewel?"

"Yeah, it was fun." Jewel smiled, taking off the flower she had placed on her head feathers. She then turned her attention back to Blu, and decided to ask him a question: "Blu, I know we're birds, but can you ever imagine we got married?"

Blu closed his eyes and hummed, imaginating what it would be like to wear a fancy tuxedo, and what Jewel would look like in a beautiful white dress. "Hmmm, yeah, Jewel. They would be nice."

Jewel smiled as she moved her wings behind the back of Blu's neck. "Well, Blu, even though we're not married like humans, I'm happy to call you "my husband"."

"And I'm happy to call you "my wife", Jewel." Blu smiled, moving his wings around Jewel's back. "Now, may this groom kiss his bride?"

"He may, indeed." Jewel smiled.

The two lovebirds made contact with their beaks and kissed romantically and passionately with their eyes closed and holding each other in their dark and light blue wings.


And the wedding of Tulio and Linda is over. Stay tuned for chapter 10, which will be here soon.
