Rio: The Aftermath

Chapter 12: blue macaws' freedom.

Hey, everyone. This is the last chapter of this Rio story. I do hope you all enjoyed it. I tried to make it as long as possible, and I'm going on vacation really soon, so I thought I would get this done before I went.

I really hope you all enjoyed my story. I tried my best on it. Thank you all for reading.

Weeks had passed since the good news of Linda staying in Rio and opening up another bookstore in Rio for her and Tulio to live in. Tulio did not have his own home-he lived with his mom, and now that he and Linda were together, they plan to help each other out in their business life.

And, since Tulio is going to set Blu and Jewel free in the wild, he had decided to build a tower somewhere in the jungle for many reasons: to protect birds, to keep smugglers away, and to help injured birds if they were hurt. After he had permission to build it, Tulio did not hesitate and immediately got to work on it. He even allowed Linda to name the tower for him.

Linda already knew what she was going to call it. She named it 'Blu Bird Sanctuary". And she even had a logo for it. The logo was a circle with a picture of a bird in the middle which is suppose to be Blu's face, and it had 'Blu Bird Sanctuary" written at the top, and 'Rio de Janeiro' written at the bottom. And the logo had the colours green with a bit of a beige-brown colour.

As for Fernando, who had disappeared after Blu and Jewel were safe, had been found in the streets of Rio de Janeiro by Tulio.

Due to the fact Fernando had no home, and did not exactly have a honest job, Linda and Tulio had decided if they were to ever get married, they would adopt Fernando into their home.

For now, they just gave him a home at Linda's new bookstore. And even though he did do bad things, Linda and Tulio understood he was desperate and had nothing at all, Linda and Tulio forgave him since he did make amends, and gave him a second chance, and were even planning to give him a job at the sanctuary.

As for the blue macaws, Blu and Jewel, they had been merely waiting for the time to come when Jewel's wing would finally heal and get it's strength back.

While Jewel had been recovering, Blu, ever so often would go to Rafael's tree for advice about ladies and how to make them happy, and had even had a couple of flying lessons.

When Jewel was fully recovered, she and Blu planned to go and live in Jewel's tree hollow Jewel had been living in for so long, all on her own. But now that she had Blu, she would never be alone together.

And for their two friends-the duo birds named Nico and Pedro, they had spent their time rebuilding the Samba Club after it was tore down by the monkeys who Nigel had forced to attack them and bring Blu and Jewel back to him.

Now it seems everything will be peaceful for everyone. Blu and Jewel have each other, Linda and Tulio have each other too, and our gonna be living together, Nico and Pedro were still best friends and had rebuilt the club. And now it seems all everyone had to do...Was wait.

Inside the artificial jungle, Blu and Jewel had just returned from Jewel's check-up on her wing, and Blu had to take his vitamins from Linda. The two lovebirds went back up into the artificial tree hollow to spend the rest of their day together.

Jewel's cast was now removed, meaning she could now stretch her wing out from her side after at least four weeks. Now all she had to do is wait another two weeks for her wing to get it's strength back.

Blu looked at Jewel, who was preening her good wing with the tip of her beak. Blu could not help but smile, seeing her beauty shine into his eyes like diamonds. "Wow..."

"What?" Jewel inquired, hearing Blu say something to her, but could not understand what he meant exactly.

"You, Jewel," Blu answered while taking Jewel's good wing in his left wing, and complementing her on her beauty. "You're so beautiful, Jewel."

Jewel could not help but smile even more in response. She held Blu's wing in return and twirled around and danced into his grip. She placed both her wings around Blu's lower back. "I'm beautiful, am I, Blu?"

"Mm-hmm." Blu replied, placing his feathery wings around Jewel's upper back, holding her in his embrace and with a smile on his face. "Yes, Jewel. And I want you to promise me you will never stop getting beautiful."

Jewel smirked in response as she planted a little kiss on the side of Blu's beak. She replied to Blu with a sweet and playful tone in her voice. "Oh, Blu, that will not be a problem at all."

The two blue macaws cuddled with each other and spent all day together until it was time for them to hit the hay and tuck in for the nest.

Blu and Jewel laid in their artificial nest together and tucked their heads in their wings, ready for a good nights' sleep.

They would need the rest for they would have a long journey ahead of them soon. They were going to spend the rest of their lives together. And maybe, just maybe, one day, they could finally do the one thing Tulio had wanted them to do for so long: mate and have babies.

Maybe Blu might be a dad one day, and maybe Jewel might give birth to chicks and become a mother.

Perhaps there is hope for their species after all.

A couple more weeks had passed by, and things had been going very well for everybody. But the most important thing today was Jewel's wing is finally fully-healed, and she and Blu are now ready to take to the skies and finally flew with each other, just like the dreamed of.

After Tulio had taken Jewel to hospital room, he was happy and glad to hear her wing was now fully-recovered, and she was ready to go home.

Tulio placed his hands open for Jewel and carried her. Tulio was also happy to hear that Jewel did not hate humans anymore. She saw how Linda was so nice to Blu by rescuing him all those years ago, and how Tulio had did everything to assure her wing would heal no matter what.

After he saw Jewel was now ready to go home, he personally carried her outside the Sanctuary and into the jungle with Linda, Blu and Fernando alongside him to witness the great day.

Linda, Fernando, and Tulio were all wearing the same shirts. A yellow shirt with a little green circle on the left side with the picture of Blu on them like the logo for the tower.

While they walked, Blu perched himself onto Linda's arm. And even though she was now staying in Rio, he was still a little sad due to the fact he would not see her everyday like he has the past 15 years.

Linda looked at her faithful companion to see his sad expression. She smiled a stroked Blu's head with his hand, catching his attention to her.

Linda spoke to Blu in a sweet gentle voice. "It's okay, Blu. It's not the end. We will see each other still. But I want you to promise be you will take care of Jewel. Okay?"

Blu nodded in response with smile on his beak, but what Linda did not know, he was secretly speaking to himself in his thoughts. "(Oh, I will, Linda. Don't worry about that. But it will be more like Jewel taking care of me.)"

Linda saw Blu's smile and stroked him again with her left hand. "Do not be afraid to visit sometime, Blu. We will always be best friends, no matter what."

Finally, the three humans and two blue macaws had made it to the Blu Bird Sanctuary tower. Each one of them climbed up the ladder one at time to get to the top.

When they were at the top of the tower, Tulio looked at Linda and Fernando before he lifted his hands into the air and gave Jewel a little throw into the air, and to everyone's enjoyment, she was flying again for them first time in weeks.

Jewel stopped in mid-air and patiently waited for Blu to say his goodbyes to Linda. Jewel did not mind waiting as she knew she and Blu would now have all the time in the world to spend together.

Linda set Blu down onto a wooden safety poll to say her goodbyes. She and Blu performed their special friendship handshake together one last time. Linda put her fist out, Blu pumped his head against Linda's hand, and then they both leaned back, making explosion noises.

Linda then stroked Blu's head before moving back and allowing him to fly up into the sky with the girl he loves. Linda was sad, but happy that Blu finally found love and could now have it for the rest of his life.

"That's my big brave boy." Linda spoke to herself while looking at the sky and trying to see Blu and Jewel, but their blue feathers were blending them into the sky, making it difficult to see.

Tulio moved closer to Linda placed his hand on her shoulder, and his other hand. Fernando's. Linda in return put her hand on Tulio's and another on Fernando's. They all held each other like a family; well, they were basically family now.

Back with the macaws, Jewel looked at her mate and smiled with her attention turned towards him. Now that they were free, it was time to get Blu settled in the jungle. "Blu, would you like a quick tour around the jungle?"

Blu looked at his beautiful mate and smiled, while answering her question with a charming voice. "There's nothing I would love more, Jewel. Lead the way, Queen of the jungle."

"With pleasure, handsome." Jewel replied, flying even more faster to make it fun for herself and Blu. "Try to keep up, Blu!"

Blu laughed in response and flew a little harder to try and keep up with Jewel. "I will, Jewel!"

I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

Blu caught up with Jewel and playfully nudged her in the sky. Jewel laughed too and tried to fly even faster, but Blu was surprisingly faster than he looked, even for a beginner.

Blu looked back at Jewel who was giggling as she was catching up with her might.

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

Blu chuckled and decided to tease Jewel a little with his flying. "What's the matter, Jewel? Can't keep up?"

Jewel laughed in response, knowing Blu was only kidding, and flew even faster. "Oh, you have done it now, Blu."

See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, oh

If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

Jewel finally caught up with Blu and playfully moved him away with her wing and flown ahead of him, taking the lead. She looked back at Blu and laughed. "Come and catch me, Blu!"

Blu grinned in response and tried to fly even faster to keep up with his loved-one. "With please, Jewel."

It took him a couple of minutes, but Blu finally caught up with Jewel. And then, just for fun, Blu flew over Jewel and grabbed her in his wings and took them both towards the ground, but did not have to worry as he could tell they were going to land in something safe: a bush.

Hey, cause I believe in me, oh

If I can see it, then I can do it (I can do it)
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

Blu and Jewel laughed as they both went down to the ground, laughing and giggling, and completely ignoring the danger of falling since they landed in a soft bush.

Blu looked over at his beautiful mate and held his wings over her like a bear hug. "I got you."

Jewel giggled in response and pecked the side of Blu's beak like it was a cheek. "Well done, Blu. Not bad for a beginner."

"All those years or reading books turned out to be useful after all." Blu said while smiling, still keeping his wings around Jewel like he could hold her forever, ever, and ever.

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
I believe I can fly (I can fly)

Hey, if I just spread my wings (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
I can fly, hey (I can fly)
If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
I can fly-eye-eye-eye (I can fly) eye-eye-eye (I can fly) eye-eye-eye Woo! (I can fly)
Hum, fly-eye-eye-eye-eye-eye-eye-eye-eye

Months have passed since the two blue macaws had been released into the jungle with each other. They were having a great life, they had love, friends, and they both finally chicks of their own. Three little baby blue macaws had been laid one day and now they were beginning to save their kind after all.

One peaceful morning, the birds of the jungle had woken up early as usual to sing their morning song. A beautiful, magically song which Blu liked to call "Real In Rio".

The birds all perched themselves on branches, trees and flew around in the air. They all sang with beautiful voices and happy expressions.

All the birds of a feather
Do what they love most of all
Moon and the stars, strumming guitars
That's why we love Carnaval

As the birds all danced around, performing barrel-rolls, frontflips and making shapes, a female blue macaw came from out of the crowd of her birds, her mate following closely and her offspring not too far away.

She sang as she performed a barrel-roll for fun.

Jewel-

Loving our life in the jungle everything's wild and free

Blu flew up next to Jewel and began to sing his line in the song he and all his family and friends now shared together

Blu-

Never alone, 'cause this is our home

Blu and Jewel's three baby macaws then joined in on the song. One of them flying above their mother and father, and the other two flying below their parents.

Blu, Jewel, and blue macaw kids-

Magic can happen for real, in Rio all by itself (by itself)

Blu, Jewel and their kids all perched down on a branch, dancing and singing together as a family.

Blu, Jewel, and blue macaw kids-

You can't see it coming you can't find it anywhere else

Then out of nowhere, Pedro the Cardinal flew in front of the blue macaw family and began to sing his line of the song, in his hip-hop style. The blue macaw family placed their wings on their sides as they watched Pedro fly though a group of birds.

Pedro-

I'm a Capoeira king-a king-a king-a king-a king-a
Birds like me, 'cause I'm a hot wing-a (Pedro's hot wing-a)

Pedro then landed himself next to his best friend, still dancing of course, and was outside the toucan's family tree hollow.

Nico took of his bottle-cap and played it in his wings like a tambourine and prepared to sing his line too.

Nico-

Here everybody loves samba (Pedro-I like the Samba)

Rafael peaked his head out of his tree hollow, with his mate Eva, and three of his children. He placed his wing on his chest and sang his line.

Rafael-

Rhythm you feel in your heart (Pedro-I'm the Samba master)

Nico and Pedro flew through a group of birds together. Nico still singing as they passed through the jungle

Nico-

Beauty and love, what more could you want
Everything can be for real, in Rio

Blu and Jewel flew into the air together and flew around each other. Pedro flew up and did his famous lovehawk squawk. Then Linda and Tulio had also joined in the fun, riding on a hang glider together.

Blu, Jewel, their children, Nico, Pedro, and Tulio and Linda all flew (Tulio and Linda gliding) into the sunset together while the other birds finished off their song together.

Here's something else (something else)
You just feel it happening
You won't find it anywhere elsee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee

Just as the birds and humans were almost out of complete sight, another hand glider when past, and riding on that hand glider was the bulldog with a drool problem named Luiz, who by the looks of it, wanted to join in the fun.

He yelled out in excitement as his hand glider went past and through the jungle. "I love you, Riooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

The end. I hope you all enjoyed this story. I am not sure if I will make a sequel, but I shall see. I got to finish my Darkness story and then Im gonna start a Sonic story, so I will see what I can do.

As for the kids names, I did not give them names in this story because I do not know the actual names of the kids. People are saying their names are Bobby, Savannah and Jasmine, but rumors are rumors, and I'm not one to judge.

Thank you all for reading, I hope you enjoyed this story, and feel free to leave your opinions.
