The city of Rio de Janeiro was truly alive at New Year's Eve. Everywhere you looked there was people dancing, singing, partying alongside the beaches and outside their houses. Lights of every color shined and lit up the night, as some music was being played…
What is love if it's not with you?
I know when you're alone, you feel it too
In your arms is where I long to be
'Cause being with you gives me sanity (welcome to Rio!)
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
As the music kept playing throughout the city, there was a huge celebration happening at the Christ the Redeemer statue, where hundreds of birds were shaking their tail feathers off, dancing in sync to the beat. As two champagne glasses held by humans clicked together and separated, off to the front of the statue, a familiar yellow canary and a red cardinal came and bounced against each other as the canary sang along with the music.
What good is love... (Nico: is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (Nico: is it amazing love?)
What good is love... (Nico: am I your baby love?)
If it's not your love...? (Nico: is it a crazy love?)
As the canary continued singing with the music, he used the cardinal as a skateboard almost and slid down a stone stair railing until going to the bottom and flying off the cardinal, to which the cardinal took over the singing and was shaking his tail feathers while dancing to the beat.
This is a crazy party
I'm so glad I'm here with everybody
Baby, move your body, shake it to the ground
Break it, break it, break it, break it, break it down, Blu!
"Me?" The blue macaw known as Blu replied.
What's a song if you can't hear it too?
Blu sung awkwardly, but everyone accepted it and continued with the music, after the music came back on, the female blue macaw named Jewel, who was Blu's wife, started singing.
Can't imagine dancing without you
And Jewel slid her wing under Blu's chin to which Blu smiled and enjoyed the feeling. As Jewel stood dancing to one side, Blu came and wrapped his wings around her, singing the next line.
A shooting star ain't really nothin' to see
As the music continued, the two danced around, holding each other's wings, in sync to the beat as the party continued, Jewel singing the next line.
If you're not right here standing next to me
And Jewel gave a quick kiss on the beak to Blu, to which Blu went "Oh!".
The song was finally nearing the end, as everyone allowed the original singer of the song to finish while focusing on shaking their tail feathers off.
Oh-oh... listen to me, darling
I wake up every morning thinkin' 'bout the way you feel
Oh-oh... I wonder if you know it
And what good is the party if you're not around?
Listen to me now
What good is love... (is it a crazy love?)
If it's not your love...? (is it amazing love?)
As the song ended, Blu and Jewel were dancing alongside Banjo and Grace and Blu accidentally caused Jewel to fall and caught her in his wings before she could hit her head. The two looked into each other's eyes, Jewel smiling while Blu gave a weird look.
"For a bird from Minnesota, you got some moves." Jewel commented.
"Oh, that wasn't a move, that was an accident, but I accept the compliment." Blu quickly returned
"It's great Rafael watch the kids." Jewel said as the two continued dancing.
"Rafael is watching our kids too." Grace said.
"Yeah, looks like you're stuck with me all night." Blu sweetly said.
"You're my one and only Blu." Jewel said.
"That's a good thing, since I am the only other one." Blu said.
And the two touched beaks, but a familiar voice caused them to open their closed eyes and look to see a familiar toucan.
"Hey lovebirds, happy New Year!" Rafael shouted.
"Rafi, where are the…" Blu started, but was cut off by Rafael.
"The kids are with Luiz, no worries." Rafael said.
However Blu was extremely worried. However Bia, Carla, and Tiago are Blu's and Jewel's children and Belle, Crystal, Junior, and Max are Banjo's and Grace's children.
"Worry is right here." Blu replied, pointing his wing at himself.
Blu, Jewel, Banjo, and Grace then heard a familiar bulldog singing and then seeing him dancing with some party decorations on him.
"Luiz, where are the kids?" Banjo asked him.
"Kids, I don't have any kids." Luiz answered wrongly as he was too party busy to think right.
"Our kids!" Blu, Jewel, Banjo, and Grace shouted together.
"Oh right, I left them with Tiny." Luiz said.
"Tiny." Blu, Jewel, Banjo, and Grace then looked at each other.
"What. She is an excellent babysitter." Luiz said.
"I am a terrible babysitter." Tiny said.
"This is going to be awesome!" Tiago said as held a firework rocket and stuck it in the ground alongside a pile of rockets.
"Yes it will be Tiago." Max said.
Max and Tiago high five each other.
"Okay, I did all the calculations and each explosion will be in rhythm, unless I didn't carry the one." Bia said while she wondered while tapping a matchstick against her beak.
"You can figure this out Bia." Belle said.
"Here is my vision, red, blue, green, yellow, yellow." "Purple." Carla said.
"Purple is my favorite color." Crystal said.
"Here is my vision." Tiago said as he matchstick from the light blue girl. "Boom, crash, bang, ka-pow." And lit the match.
"Your parents are really not going to like this." Tiny told the little blue birds.
"Here we go." And the little blue bird flew forward to light the fireworks, however before he could, Jewel caught him by the talons.
"Where are you going little bird?" Jewel asked while Blu landed besides Jewel and took the match from the boy.
"Hey, what is this?" Blu asked while motioning his head towards the match.
"Dad." Tiago replied, annoyed.
"You guys know the rules, no pyrotechnics without adult supervision." Blu said to which the three chicks hung their heads low.
"You too kids." Banjo said.
"We ask Tiny, Uncle Blu." Belle said.
Blu turned to the tied up Tiny.
"Sorry Tiny." Blu said.
"You don't have to pay me Sr. Blu." Blu said.
"Kids next time ask me." Blu said.
"But you always say no." Carla said.
"No I don't." Blu said back defensively.
"Dad, you're in denial." Tiago agreed with his sister.
"Fine, honey, do I always say "No." Blu looked at Jewel.
"Yes." Jewel replied quickly, but realized what she said. "I mean, no." And Jewel looked at her kids.
""Great, now mom is saying it too." Carla sighed.
By now the matchstick burned to Blu's talons holding the match and Blu felt the heat and threw the match away. He was focused on his kids and did not notice he threw it on his tail feathers. Banjo saw this and tried to warn his brother.
"Listen me, Jewel, my brother Banjo, Grace, and you seven are the last blue Spix's macaws on the planet…" Blu started.
"Birds Of Blue Feathers." Banjo (hugs his wife Grace).
Have to stick together." The seven kids said.
"I smell chicken." Carla said.
Blu looked at his tail feathers and saw the smoke coming out of them. "No, no, no, no!" Blu shouted as he ran about, trying to put out the embers burning his tail off. He accidentally lit the firework.
"That's the twenty seventh "No" dad said today, alongside with uncle Banjo's"." Bia said.
Blu finally managed to blow out the embers on his tail and breathed a sigh of relief, but that changed when he saw all the fireworks light up and about to go.
"Blu!" Tiny said.
"Hold on Tiny!" Blu shouted and tried undoing the rope holding Tiny with his beak, but Blu being not that good at this stuff, got his beak stuck in the rope, Banjo see his brother tied up in a rocket.
"Blu, you…" Banjo started to say, but the firework's fuse reached its end and the rocket went up, taking both brothers with it.
Jewel, Grace, and the seven little birds flew up and settled down on the Christ the Redeemer statue while the rocket carrying the two brothers exploded and while Jewel held onto her kids and Grace held onto her kids. Both brothers came falling down and landing hard close by the other family members. Both brothers regained their focus and stood up, their feathers half black.
"Oh man, how come dad and uncle Banjo get all the fun." Tiago said, disappointed.
"Look, it worked." Carla said excited about the fireworks lighting up the night.
"Well, this year is off to a great start." Blu said as he hugged his family close, while Banjo hugged his family close and watched the fireworks.
