Roberto and Jewel had been flying for a quite while, when they finally started to reach the place. At one point Roberto lowered his flight a bit and started to disappear between upper branches of the trees - Jewel quickly followed him. Soon they have been manoeuvreing among many trees when Roberto suddenly stopped, causing Jewel to almost crash into his back.

"Hey! Watch where are you stopping!" She shouted, while hovering in midair. Roberto, however, haven't paid much attention to her and flew away, landing on the ground in front of a tree trunk. Of course, Jewel followed him - muttering something about his behaviour, but she paused when she saw something that looked like a crash-landing site.

Some of the birds from the search party were around the area, probably collecting the traces. But she didn't care. There was a pit in the ground - it's dimensions perfectly matching a macaw's size, it was probably made by something that has fell from above, marking simultaneously itself on the wet mud. A dried bloodstains marked the soil of the pit's right side.

When looking upwards, some of the thinner branches have been broken, with their endings being - mostly - sharp edges, that could easily rip an unlucky fellow's skin.

But it wasn't what terrified Jewel mostly. There was something even worse - many blue feathers were lying around. They were mainly over the pit, but some were still hanging from the branches, while the rest of them was sprawled on something that looked like a trace of someone dragging something away.. The most terrifying was the fact that the trail ended after about one meter. It didn't cause any doubts that a sort of bird has tried to drag Blu away, and after a while it has abandoned that idea, grabbing (probably unconscious) Blu and flying with him from the place.

Roberto was watching the scene, when Jewel suddenly grabbed some of the feathers from the ground with her wings, clutching them to her chest. She fell to her knees, closed her eyes and started sobbing, leaning back. She almost crashed into the ground, but Roberto caught her in the last moment.

"And what do we do now?"

"One thing is for sure - we must set the broken bones into their correct places.."

"What?!" Blu cried, clumsily walking back, though he was still weak.

"Didn't you hear? We must make sure that your wing will heal properly, or you will probably never fly again." She stated.

"I don't need to fly, I can walk. I was flightless for the most of my life, so I can be okay with it for the rest!" He yelled in a fearful voice.

Crystal didn't say anything more and just started walking towards Blu, who was still backing away, terrified expression all over his face. Soon he felt cold, wooden wall on his back and tried to sneak to the hollow exit, but he stumbled over his own legs and fell face-first to the floor, squawking in pain.

The female used her advantage and landed softly on his back, pinning his throat to the floor with her talons. He tried to struggle free, but without any avail.

"Listen to me, Blu. I'm doing it only for your best." She grabbed a vine from the wall and tied him up. Blu was still wriggling, trying to get himself free, but he lost the hope entirely and stopped. He lied on his left side, only using his right eye to peer at Crystal, who was still tying him. She then turned him - he was now lying on his back, and she spread his right wing open, causing him to cry in pain.

"Aargh! No!" Blu screamed squawking frantically, while she examined his wing. It was swollen so much that when she moved some feathers to reveal the wound, the bones were barely visible through the skin. She blenched in disgust.

"Uhh," Blu gulped. "What.. can.. you.. see?" He said, smiling nervously.

"As I said before, we must set.. the joint.." She said, not sure if she could manage to do it. "Wait a while, I will come back soon." The female macaw then left the hollow. Blu only closed his eyes and shook his head, fearing that the worst will happen soon.

After a moment, Crystal has come back with a leaf and several herbs. The leaf was curved lengthwise, so Blu found out easily that it was indeed filled with water.

Crystal grabbed some of Blu's wing feathers with her beak and plucked them out to get more clear image of the damage, of course leaving Blu in pain. She then took one of the herbs, soaked it in water and carefully washed his wound, doing the same with the rest of his wing - he was still partially covered in mud.

It had tickled Blu several times and he tried to fold his wing a little, but she refused and caught the undamaged, first part of his limb - at what Blu cringed a bit.

When she had ended cleaning the wound, she used a liana to tie up the first part of his wing - to prevent him from moving it. The female grinned and Blu gulped, knowing what was going to happen next.

"Okay. I will now count from ten to one. You can hold your breath, maybe it will ease your pain." she said.

But Blu started to breathe rapidly, looking like he was going to faint. "Ten."

"Do you think that it will help? I'm starting to get concerned about it," he said nervously.

"Nine."

"Eight."

"Seven."

"Six."

"Five."

She then grabbed both parts of his wing - the undamaged in her left wing, the damaged in her right.

"Maybe other time?" Blu said wriggling a bit, desperately trying to get himself out of this painful situation.

"Four."

"Three."

"Two." Blu then gulped loudly, closed his eyes and shook his head, crying "No!" in his mind.

"One."

The female aimed and using all her strength moved her wings simultaneously, but in opposite directions.

Crack.
