This is the last chapter of this story, hope you like it.

"I never thought this day would come. Not in my entire life I would even think about a tiny bit of what is happening now. This is not something different, but completely new. What I mean by this is that no experience or thoughts had been put into this, but I've successfully adapted to the sudden change in my life. In the course of these days I never thought of my old life, my families, friends and teachers. They seemed to fade away like a drop of coloring in the ocean, but I managed to to gather them up again, and think about everything again.

What would my father think right now? one of his three sons had been missing in a trip to Rio de janeiro. Others look at this as just an average kidnapping and not even pay their attention to it, but if it was their family members, even a person that you never met but you know that they are related, what would they think? And I'm not talking about your close relative like your daughter or son. Think about what my father has to go through, a missing son and the days of misery. My father was divorced with my mother a year ago, and my two older brother has grown up and left the house. Leaving me the only thing that he has and cared for. Now that his only treasure had been stolen, the only time he can feel the warmth of his family is at certain holidays when his older sons returns from their new home and gather around at my father's old wooden table, but sometimes they may be too busy to come back, and leaving my father weeping in the cold.

I feel guilty for having a good time with my new life. It shouldn't be like this, why couldn't fate just have mercy on us? Why does it always have to tear our cherished ones apart? I couldn't think of anything else worse than losing their family. All that I asked for is a happy trip to Rio and be back home with my father. I know many wished this, but I just want to go back in time and see my father one last time before I lose him forever. One thing's for certain is that my father is thinking of the same thing. I wiped my tear away and looked back at the city, and saw that building. It's the very hotel that I lost my identity, and I don't know when I can claim that back. For now all that matters is my new girlfriend Maria. This was one of the things that I never thought I could gain in my life.

I wasn't a popular kid in the school, but I wasn't bad to the point where peoples call me geeks and nerd in front of everyone. The girls laughed at me for my stupidity at socializing, so I tried to take it as a compliment, but I know deeply it scarred my heart to see my crush being kissed by another guy. He sure was a popular kid both in class and social media. I wished I could punch him in the face and swear at him not to touch her, but I couldn't do it because I'm a nerd. The only peoples that admires me and gave me help when I needed was my teacher. My math teacher, a thirty-three year old lady who knew exactly what we are thinking and are capable of making facetious jokes. She was the only motivation I had beside my father. She even helped me out with literature and chemistry, but that's not the important part. When I was at my lowest depression times, she came up to me and gave me a teaching on some philosophies.

"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." -Mahatma Gandhi

It was this simple quote that my path clear, I took away my distractions caused by social media and only focused on my studying. Eventually I graduated high school and moved on to a college with a high grade. It sure made my father proud, and then he decided to spend his life savings on my college, and it sure was a hard time for the both of us. Eventually I made out of this college and decided to move on with my life. I was hired in a company for coding, and they paid me quite a lot. I made some savings overtime and wanted to go on a ride outside of my hometown. Little did I know that this might be the last chance I will ever see my father again. I tried not to thinks about the memories but it just comes back harder when you thought you forgot them. I looked on my left and saw Maria staring at me this whole time." Will thought as he flew above the city of Rio with his new girlfriend Maria.

"What's wrong Will, why are you crying?" Maria asked Will with concern.

"Oh nothing, just some old memories with my parents." Will lied not wanting Maria to know about his real identity yet.

"Oh I'm sorry, do you want to speak about it?" Maria asked Will.

"It's better to dig it out when the time comes." Will said thinking when that will be.

"Ok Will." Maria said and asked," Do you want to go to the club first or just stay home?"

"I'm feeling a little bit tired from not sleeping well. I guess let's go home and rest for a while, and maybe do something else peaceful." Will said yawning.

"Me too, my head hurts from yesterday when fighting with Erico, and he sure was a cruel bird." Maria said and looked down sadly," I feel bad for those birds and animals we killed now. They must have the same feeling towards us as we have towards Erico."

"I sometimes feel that too, but it's what shapes us as a bird of prey. Erico tortures and kills for fun while we hunt just for survival. We are different from him." Will said to Maria.

"But I kinda like torturing them and I can't help it. It makes me feel dominant over others and have the choice of life or death." Maria said looking at Will with her green eyes.

"Torturing sure is fun in some ways but you should never do that. It can make you feel guilty for the rest of your life, but if you never get tired of it, you'll end up like Erico. Stop it while you can." Will conforted Maria.

"Yeah. By the way, do you want to stay at my hollow? It's closer to here." Maria suggested to Will.

"Sure, but can I sleep at your hollow if that's not too much trouble?" Will asked Maria to stay at her hollow for a while.

"Of course you can, in fact, I want you to stay overnight with me in my soft nest." Maria shyly smiled at Will.

"Thanks, but I'm just sleeping in the nest with you, and nothing else gross is involved." Will said to Maria hinting that thing.

"Don't worry Will, we're not at that stage yet, maybe a few month but not now." Maria said blushing at Will," Oh look, there's my hollow."

Will looked and flew at Maria's hollow as she pointed at it. Will landed first and scanned her hollow. It wasn't big but was enough for a few birds. There was a big nest in the middle of the hollow made by soft dried leaves and some sticks, and it was definitely big enough for both of them. What gave Will the creep was that there are red stains in some areas in the hollow.

"Why are there red stains on the wall?" Will asked Maria as he examined it.

"That's just some blood for scaring predators off." Maria plainly said.

"There sure are a lot of bloods, I'm sure that's enough to scare them off." Will said to Maria.

"Well, some of them aren't for that purpose. I once had an encounter with one of my prey and I couldn't help myself and did something really bad to him." Maria said looking at the stain on the wall.

"Oh yeah? What's it about?" Will asked Maria to tell him her story.

"Are you sure you wanna hear it?" Maria asked," It's extremely bloody and gory."

"Yeah, tell me about it, I can handle it." Will confirmed again.

"Ok, the story starts… Blocked by rating(Check my profile for full scene)." Maria finished her story.

"What? Why?" Will was completely shocked by what Maria had told him.

"I know it's horrific, but I would never do that now." Maria said crying," I just can't shake this guilt off, It's all my fault that he got tortured."

Will couldn't stand her crying so he held her in his wings. Tear went down from her eyes to Will's chest feathers and made it wet. Will carried her all the way to the nest and lied down together.

"Please don't cry, it's not your fault, it's Erico's. He's the one that influenced you." Will comforted Maria by holding her close to his chest and patted her head with his wings. Maria soon stopped crying and fell asleep under his wing. She smiled in her sleeping feeling the safetyness provided by his boyfriend. After Will saw her falling asleep, he kissed Maria on the head and fell into the dreamland after her.

Will's dream

"You can come out now." Will knew what was going to happen so he said it out loud.

"Good job Will, you got yourself a hot chick." The creature said to him.

"Don't call her that." Will got a little bit irritated by him," Who are you anyways?"

"If you really want my name, then call me Artor." The creature revealed its name.

"Ok Artor, what are you doing here other than teasing me about my 'achievement'?" Will said to Artor.

"I'm just here to tell you that when summer is over, you need to go with Blu and Jewel." Artor said.

"And why is that?" Will asked Artor.

"You will soon understand." The god like creature said before disappearing into dusts again.

End of the dream

Two month later

"Morning angel." Blu said to Jewel while she yawned and opened her eyes.

"Morning handsome. Do you know what day today is?" Jewel stood up and asked Blu with excitement.

"Of course I remember, today is the day we go back to Amazon." Blu said faking his enthusiasm and thought," You've been talking nonstop about it ever since last week."

"Great that you remembered it, let's go get some breakfast and get ready to leave." Jewel said before flying outside crazily like a kid on a sugar rush.

"Morning dad." Tiago jumped on Blu which scared him and made him fall.

"Woah, Tiago, don't do that to your dad. I will eventually get a heart attack if you keep doing it." Blu stood up and brushed his feathers clean.

"Haha good one dad." Tiago laughed at his reaction and flew away to bother his sisters.

"Where is mom?" Bia came to Blu and asked him.

"She's getting us some breakfast to eat." Blu replied to Bia," Did you know that today we are leaving Rio?"

"Yes, but can we have pancake for breakfast? This is going to be the last time we will have these things until next year." Bia asked Blu to cook pancakes for them.

"I'm not sure how your mother will react to that." Blu said unsurely," She seemed to be really excited of this trip and I don't want to disappoint her."

"I'm back." Jewel said and flew in carrying some mangos in her talon, she landed in the hollow and placed down the fruits.

"Can we have pancakes for breakfast, we won't be having them until next year." Bia asked Jewel if they can have the man-made food or naturally grown fruits.

"Umm, sure, you can have some, but you have to eat these mangos too, because they are always better than pancakes." Jewel said raising her talon.

"Hello guys." Will came in the hollow and greeted them," are we going to Amazon today?"

"Oh hey Will, we are going back to Amazon. Where is Maria? Is she coming too?" Jewel said to Will and asked him about Maria.

"She's just chatting with Rafael and his kids, and those kids aren't easy to handle even though they are already teenagers. Maria's coming with me to Amazon too." Will answered Jewel.

"Have you ever tried pancakes Will?" Blu asked Will if he ever tasted them. In Blu's eye, they are the best food in the world other than hot chocolate and marshmallows.

"They tastes fine, I like it better with some honeys on it." Will accidentally revealed his human trait.

"When did you ever get chance to eat them if you live in the wild?" Jewel asked curiously.

"Well, I ate some in Linda's house." Will nervously said to them even though Linda never gave him any.

"Ok…" Jewel said slowly not really believing Will, she then turned her attention to Blu," Let's go get some pancakes since you all waited for it."

"Yay." Blu and Bia looked at each other and said in unison.

After flying for a few minutes, the family arrived at Linda's house and Blu knocked on the window with his beak. Linda putted down her book and looked towards the window. She got up and opened the window and let them in. She knew today that Blu was going back to Amazon, it was his own will, and there is nothing she could do to stop that.

"Hey Blu." Linda said happily to Blu and his family.

"Hey Linda." Blu said to her even though she could only hear squawks. Blu went on the table and took out a pen and a note. He started writing something on it and Linda took it in her hand after he's done.

"PANCAKES"

Linda knew that Blu wanted some delicious, fluffy pancakes for breakfast so she opened her fridge and took out some ingredients while the birds sat on the couch feeling the softness of the pillows.

After Linda finished making the flours, she dumped some of it on the grill and began making the pancake that Blu always loves. The luxurious smell of the pancake immediately filled the room and made the birds turn around and see it cooks.

After some time, Linda made six pancakes which is enough for everyone. She putted them each on separate plates so everyone gets one, and she also took out some syrup and blueberries for topping.

"This is the best." Blu murmured with food in his mouth. Jewel touched the pancake and moved it around. She doesn't like them not because of the taste, but because it's man-made. She then carefully bit some of the pancake and screamed in her heart. It was so good but she didn't want to show it to others, so she merely commented," Not bad, but I prefer wild food."

Jewel then cutted her mangos in pieces and gave everyone some. She tried to sound as smart as her mate," Every meal must have some good nutrients in them." Blu almost chuckled at her expression since he didn't expect it to be so funny. He took the piece and ate it but then saw another one in his plate. He looked at Will and he said," It's tastes so good so I gave it to you."

Blu looked at him with a blank expression saying "Really?". Will kept smiling until Blu finally ate the piece. Will didn't like mangos that much since he's an eagle and likes to eat meat, but he didn't know why he liked pancake and cookies.

After they finished their breakfast, Jewel became impatient about their trip back to Amazon. Jewel was really eager to see her families again even though it had been only three month, not that she doesn't like her mate and kids anymore, it's just she want to be back at the tribe and do what she always wanted to do.

They flew to Rafael's house to call their families to go to the Amazon. Maria stood outside their hollow and saw them approaching. "Hey friends, over here." Maria called them.

They flew down and entered the hollow. Blu saw Rafael and Eva so he called them," Let's pack up and go to Amazon."

"I was waiting for you to come." Rafael said and walked up to Blu.

"Wait for us!" Nico landed in the hollow and said to them," Oh good I thought we were late."

"Is everyone here?" Blu looked around and counted. After Blu confirmed that everyone was here he said," Let's fly back to Amazon!"

"YEAH!" Everyone said with excitement.

We are going back to Amazon! We sure went through some troubles but we made it. I still couldn't believe that I can have some peoples read my story, and I'm grateful for all the reviews or suggestions that you all gave me. If you liked this chapter and felt the first few paragraph wasn't boring enough to make you sleep, leave a review, thanks.
