A little while later, Blu had woken up from his little nap and leaned up from where he was laying. He looked up at the sky, and the sky was orange-which was a little strange due to the fact it was a crystal-clear sky not too long ago.

Blu didn't take much notice of the sky as he stood up and stretched his wings and talons. "Ahh, that was a nice nap."

Blu walked a few steps before he noticed a couple of birds flying past. They sounded like they were in a panic, and were trying to get somewhere as soon as possible. Blu looked at them all curious like. "Jeez, they looked like they were in a rush. I'm sure it was nothing."

Blu then extended his wings a little and flew a little high into the air, but froze in mid-air when he could smell something strange. "What is that smell? It smells like...Smoke!"

He quickly rushed over through the Jungle a little, and was horrified from what he was seeing. There was a fire on a couple of trees, and birds were panicking, and the military macaws were there too.

"Phew, the military are here." Blu talked to himself, thankful that the military macaws were here to help, but there was something wrong. "Wait a minute? Those military aren't helping them; they're attack them! Holy cheese 'n' sprinkles!"

A couple of military macaws carrying different old-fashioned weapons such as axes, medieval spiked ball, swords, and bow and arrows. The military macaws were capturing any bird they could find and forcing them into cages.

Blu was completely puzzled, wondering why the military are doing this. Have they gone made? Blu had to find answers now before it was too late.

Quickly, he followed a couple of birds, who were making haste to escape. Blu flew beside a scarlet macaw, and quick asked what was going on. "Hey, what the heck is going on?! Why are the military macaws attacking?"

"King Lenny's on his way here!" the scarlet macaw answered, flapping his wings as hard as he could to escape. "We need to get back to a village; now!"

Blu nodded in response, but something in that macaw's sentence did not make sense. He arched a curious eyebrow, and was completely confused about something. "King Lenny? What is he talking about? What IS going on?"


Eventually, Blu and a few birds had made it to a small village in the jungle, which was just a bunch of small tents and a few locals. Blu landed down and was once again confused about something. "When did this village get here?"

Blu decided to ask someone about the situation now. He walked over to a yellow macaw male, who was keeping an eye out for military macaws. "Excuse me. Can you explain to me what's happening, please?"

"King Lenny is on his way here to try and find the rebels." the yellow macaw answered, slightly nervous as he watched through the Jungle.

"King Lenny?" Blu repeated, wondering when in the World Lenny was a king and not a captain. "But I thought he was Captain Lenny."

"Captain? He's always been a King." the yellow macaw said, but panicked when he suddenly spotted a squadron of macaws on their way. "Military macaws were here! Everyone run!"

In seconds, there was panic, and every last bird was trying to escape, but the military macaws were clever, and has surrounded the entire area, blocking off anyone's chances of escape from the village.

While everyone was panicking, Blu was still standing in the middle of the area, watching the military macaws hunt down every last bird in the village. Blu waited a couple of seconds before he gasped when he saw a couple more military macaws arrive, and two of them looked very familiar.

Lenny, who was now referring to as "King Lenny", was riding on komodo dragon (which was strange to Blu-since he knew by watching those documentaries at Linda's that komodo dragon's live in west Flores.

Lenny was also wearing a king's golden crown, and a king's red cape. And in his wing was a scepter, and on top of that scepter was a very familiar Orb.

Blu gasped a little when he recognized the familiar Orb in Lenny's scepter. He hung his beak open while rubbing his eyes with his wings. "The...The Orb of Light! How did he get that?"

King Lenny-along with his right-hand man, General Raxos-got off of his komodo dragon and walked into the open area where Blu was standing. He chuckled evilly while watching the blue macaw, who unlike the others, didn't seem to be afraid. "Well, well, well. And who might you be?"

"Lenny, it's me; Blu!" Blu said, trying to remind Lenny of who he is. "Why are you doing this?"

"It's King Lenny to you, macaw!" Lenny yelled, as he looked at the Orb and began to power it up with the powers of light essence. "Now, do you surrender quietly, or do I have to take you by force?"

"I'm not afraid of you, Lenny." Blu said, putting on a serious face while he extended his wings out in defensive, ready to attack. "I don't know why you're doing this, or what's going on here, but I will stop you."

Lenny chuckled in response as he beckoned for two military macaws to take his cape away. He powered up the Orb of Light on the scepter. "Very well. You first."

Blu did not hesitate and charged directly at the macaw kind. As he got close, Blu was blasted away when a light essence shield powered over Lenny when he got close.

Blu fell down onto his stomach, groaning in pain. "Ugh, what the?"

"Is that all you can do?" Lenny chuckled, waving his wing back to challenge Blu to come and try again. "Come on."

Blu groaned and charged back at Lenny again.

Lenny powered up the Orb and fired a beam from the scepter, knocking Blu onto his back. "Be gone!"

"Ahhh!" Blu yelled, landing straight down onto his back, causing extreme pain to shoot through his back. He managed to summon the strength to back up onto his talons one last time.

Blu ran straight towards Lenny again, and did manage to get closer, but Lenny once again fired a beam from the Orb and knocked Blu back onto his stomach. He slowly got back up onto his talons again while thinking to himself: "Oh...I...I can't...He's...Too...Strong."

Lenny charged the power of the Orb up and slammed it down onto the ground, sending a huge shock wave through the floor and knocking Blu back onto the ground for the final time.

The evil king could see Blu was too weak and tried to get up and try to attack again. He slowly walked up to Blu, his talons making footprints on the ground while chuckling quietly.

Lenny whacked the scepter onto Blu's left talon, breaking it, and leaving Blu in screaming agony pain.

"Ahhh, my talon!" Blu screamed, his face cringing in pain and slight tears coming out of his eyes. He panicked when he watched Lenny stand on his right talon and was preparing to break that too.

Blu tried to fight Lenny of with his free wing, but he could not do anything, and Lenny slammed the scepter into Blu's right wing, breaking the bones out of place and leaving him in even more pain.

"Ohh, ahh, my wing!" Blu screamed, but was now on the verge of passing out in shock. He was beginning to close his eyes as he watched Lenny hold the scepter to his neck.

"And now, you die!" Lenny chuckled, charging up the Orb's power to finish Blu off once and for all.

However, as Lenny prepared to finish the blue macaw off, a small grenade-like-bomb landed down in front of him, and before he could act, the grenade exploded, which spreaded smoke all around the area.

All of the military macaws coughed while trying to escape the smoke, and waving wings in the front of their faces, trying to wave the smoke away.

Blu, who was on the verge of falling into complete, could fell himself being dragged by someone-even in his almost unconscious state. "Who...Who's that...?"

"If you want to live, I suggest you keep quiet." the voice of the bird who was dragging him replied, and to Blu, his voice founded really familiar.

Before Blu finally fell into unconsciousness, he saw the figures face and said one last thing. "R...Rico?"


Well, everyone, this is certainly shocking, isn't it? Lenny is a King with the Orb of Light, the military macaws are evil, and is Rico back? How can it be possible, and how did all this happen? Let's hope we can get some answers soon.
