Chapter 23: One Week Later

Blu woke up from passing out after the ordeal he suffered with Nigel and Jewel coming with help. Blu opened his eyes slowly, but he started panicking as he had no idea what was happening. Blu was alone in a hollow of a tree, laying down on a soft bed of leaves. Blu had to calm down because as soon as he got up, pain started to go through his body again.

"What is going on here?" Blu shouted.

Jewel, who was in the same tree, heard Blu wake and shout and went up to him.

"Blu, you're awake, finally."

"Jewel? What is going on here? How did I get here?"

Jewel explained everything to Blu.

As soon as Blu passed out, he and his parents were carried to separate trees where blue macaw doctors, along with a few scarlet ones that Felipe offered to help, treated them with natural remedies. Blu's injuries were by far the worst of the three and the doctors thought Blu would not make it. However Jewel believed Blu would make it, which he did.

After Jewel explained this to Blu, Blu was still on edge.

"What about my parents and Nigel?"

"Your parents are okay, their wounds are healing, they actually woke up two days ago. And Nigel, well he is being held for now. My dad is actually waiting for you to wake, so you can decide what to do with him."

"That's great, I want to see my parents." Blu said, starting to get up, but the pain was unbearable.

"Blu, they are fine, just please relax and rest, the doctors said if you wake, you still need a week to heal."

"I can't, I need to see them."

"Blu, please, take it easy and listen to me."

Blu trusted Jewel, so Blu got back down and with a deep breath laid down.

"Good, now I will be back."

"Where are you going?"

"It's a surprise."

Jewel flew out and came back with the kids, Eduardo, Mimi, Roberto, and even Rafael, Nico, and Pedro, who had gone back to Rio after spending some time in the amazon, but wanted to go back home in Rio.

When Rafael, Nico, and Pedro heard about what happened all the way back in Rio, they took off to see Blu and meet his parents.

Blu was very happy to see everyone and was grateful that they all came to see and wish Blu good health.

After everyone left and it was just Jewel and the kids, the family got together and hugged Blu.

"Okay that hurts a little." Blu said.

"Sorry." Jewel and the kids replied.

"I didn't say stop."

And the family resumed hugging, than they all had a nice dinner and settled down for the night. Blu happy that everyone was okay and Nigel was finally being held in prison for now.
