in Mexico, two friends were chatting happily. They had happened to bump into each other while driving and decided to have a catch up. They were both leaning against their cars jabbering about whatever came to mind.

Out of the corner of his eye one of the friends noticed that a vivid blue bird fly up behind him and Alight on his car.

"Dude," he said, nudging his friend, "look behind you." (just ignore the fact that their speaking english and not spanish)

He turned around and saw the bright blue macaw sitting on the hood of his car. The bird began to squawk at him, as if making conversation.

"Sorry to ask," Blu asked ," but would I be able to borrow your car? I promise I'll bring it back in perfect condition. It'll be back in perfect shape before you know it!"

The friend, who obviously understood naught of what the bird had squawked at him, replied "yes little birdie?" as if saying: "what is it you want to say?"

"Realy!" Blu said, interpreting those words as the man agreeing to his terms ,"thanks alot, this'll be a huge help for me and my family. Wait what am I talking about i don't have a family. Well aside from Linda of course.

I mean that it will be a huge help for me and my girlfriend. Wait, is Jewel even my girlfriend? Well, what I meant to say is thanks."

After that vocalised fiasco, Blu leaned forward and plucked the man's car keys from his pocket. The man stood there and simply observed, having not yet fully processed what had just happened. He watched as this strange blue bird climbed through his car's open window, put the keys in the ignition and then closed the window.

"Wait a second..." the friend said ,'' that birds's stealing my car!"

The two men began to try and open the car doors but they had automatically locked. Meanwhile Blu was inside the car trying to figure out how to drive the car because his little bird feet were nowhere close to being able to reach the pedals.

He looked out the windows at the nice men who had leant him the car and saw that they were giving him an extra enthusiastic goodbye, banging on the windows and yelling at him. It seemed a little aggressive to him but he assumed it was just a local custom.

He opened the glove compartment and found the two kilo brick often referred to as the user's manual for the car. With all his strength, he managed to pick the book out of the glove compartment, dragged it across the seats and then pushed it to the edge of the chair.

Blu then put the car into neutral, turned the key in the ignition and flipped off the handbrake before hopping down onto the clutch. He used a random pencil that was down there to shove the gear stick out of neutral and then lifted up one of his feet. Then he reached over with his foot and placed it on the gas, straddling the gap between the two pedals. After that he slowly shifted his weight from one to the other and could feel the car start to move .

The car slowly rolled forwards, forcing the two friends to jump out of the way. Blu fluttered up to the chair and pushed the user's manual off the edge, dropping it right onto the accelerator. He then bit down on the steering wheel, and tried to navigate the out of control car around turns and pedestrians.

After he picked up a decent amount of speed, Blu reached out with his foot and moved the car up a few gears. He heard something inside the car go "Grr" and hoped that it was nothing important as the car accelerated with him still barely able to see out the windshield.

Blu flapped up and landed on the steering wheel so he could use his feet to haphazardly manoeuvre the 50 mile an hour box of metallic pain. He swerved like mad through residential streets, kicking a huge cloud of dust and tire smoke into the air.

"Whoops, sorry, excuse me, AAAAGH! Sorry, apologies AAHG!" Blu screamed and apologised as he desperately tried to keep his kill streak at 0.

He glanced up at the sun and calculated which way was north.

"Gotta go north," he said to himself, jerking the wheel to the left at the first left turn, so by his calculation he was facing north.

After a chaotic few minutes of driving through a town, the people and houses began to thin, leaving Blu on the open road.

"Phew!" Blu sighed, finally calming down from the adrenalin ,"Guess my time playing Mario kart was time well spent."
