Chapter 11: Blu's story

After Blu and his parents have finally finished hugging it out. Jewel and the children flew down to greet David and Sarah. As Bia, Carla, Tiago hugged their grandparents, Jewel could see that Blu was indeed very happy.

"This doesn't seem real does it, Blu, yet it is. You must be happy."

"Extremely." Blu said as he joined wings with Jewel.

Sarah than said. "Blu, you have to tell us what happened in your life."

"Okay, mom."

The seven blue macaws than sat down and Blu told his parents his story.

On the day that Blu was taken from the jungle, David and Sarah were out to get food, and were nervous to leave Blu, who was sleeping peacefully.

"David, are you sure we should leave him, he is still very little."

"Relax, he is fine, we are just going out for a little and there are pretty of birds watching in case something happens.

"Fine, I love you, sweetheart." Sarah said as she kissed Blu lightly on the head and flew with her husband to find food.

Blu than woke up a few minutes later to the birds singing outside and joined them, but a few minutes after that, animal poachers were capturing all the birds, including young Blu.

David and Sarah came back to find that their son was gone and spent all this time looking for him.

Meanwhile, Blu was put on a truck, taken to an airport and put on a plane that went to Minnesota, where he was put on another truck to go to a pet store. The next thing Blu remembered was the box being thrown out of the truck and a young girl, Linda, opened the box to reveal Blu.

Blu than explained the care and happiness he had with Linda for many years until he was to go to Brazil to meet the only other known blue macaw, a female known Jewel to save the species. Blu talked fondly of the times he had with Jewel, like when they were running chained up together from Nigel, the magical moment in the samba club and when Blu jumped off the plane to save Jewel.

The two lovebirds than started their family and Blu than talked of their time spent in Rio until the word reached them that the blue macaws were probably alive. Blu than explained all the adventures they had in the Amazon, meeting Jewel's father, the soccer game in the pit of doom, and defeating the loggers. Blu than ended the story until the time he first met his parents after so many years.

"That is quite a story, son." David said. "I am very proud of you."

"As well as I am, but I do have one question. Do you mind if we call you by your name that we gave you." Sarah wondered.

"Sure, Blu is actually just a nickname. What is my name?"

"Well, my son, your name is actually Tyler." Sarah said.

"Well actually that is the name Linda gave me, so I don't mind. I would like for you guys to meet Linda.

"Sure son, I was actually thinking of thanking her for taking care of you. But how about tomorrow, it's late." David said happily.

So the newly reunited family went to sleep, Blu excited that Linda would finally meet his parents, which fortunately, Linda was actually in the Amazon with Tulio, visiting the area and making sure the blue macaws were being protected.
