"Let's see how you are today."

Two days had passed after Jewel used her wings. It was for a good reason, but she was punished for it. Blu could roam around the jungle while she was stuck with Tulio and Linda. She didn't mind, but she would prefer to be in the sky with Blu. Tulio examined her wing.

"Mmm…"

Tulio smiled.

"I guess it is time to join Blu."

Jewel smiled and squawked happily.

"C'mon. Try to fly onto my shoulders."

Jewel was hesitant, but Tulio was her doctor. She flapped her wings and flew on top of Tulio's shoulder. She did not feel one tiny bit of pain. She faced Tulio's gazing eyes and squawked again.

"Linda," Tulio called.

The green-eyed bookkeeper heard Tulio and entered the lab room thirty seconds later.

"What is it?"

"It's time for Jewel to fly."

"That's wonderful."

The two humans walked outside with Jewel still on Tulio's shoulders. She trusted the human more than Linda. Blu was the opposite. The reason why she did was because he healed her. At first, Jewel hated him for keeping her locked in the cage, but if he had never caught her, she would have never meet Blu.

Once outside, Jewel did not instantly fly off of Tulio's shoulders. She looked up at the sky and waited. Tulio was curious at her behavior, but he and Linda also looked up at the sky. They spotted a blue spot flying down towards them. All three smiled. Blu landed on the ground and looked up.

"I have some happy news for you, Blu," said Tulio. "Jewel, why don't you show him?"

Jewel squawked and gracefully flew down in front of Blu. Blu's smile widened as he witnessed the event. He looked at Jewel and squawked.

"Jewel, you're all better now?"

Jewel nodded and squawked.

"It was the worst day of my life."

"How about the plane and those raptors?"

"You know what I mean," she said dully.

They looked up at Tulio and Linda and squawked.

"I think they're saying thank you," said Tulio.

"I feel that is what they are exactly saying," said Linda.

She took a knee.

"You promise to visit every now and then?"

Jewel nodded first before Blu did. She remembered Linda had a bookstore, and she wanted to teach her future kids to read. Blu nodded and faced Jewel.

"Are you ready?"

"Yes."

Jewel and Blu faced the humans one more time and took off. Linda stood up and held Tulio's hand.

"Tulio, I hope they make it."

"I'm sure they will."

Blu and Jewel flew side-by-side, over the jungle. Jewel faced Blu.

"Blu, where did you put the nest?"

"We're getting close to it. Dear, you are going to love it. It's like a house to ourselves."

"That's great Honey, but we need to fly faster."

"Why? Are you that eager?"

"You don't know the half of it."

Blu faced Jewel. She looked into her eyes and saw pain. It was time. He looked down into the jungle and spotted the tree. To anyone else, it would be impossible to tell the trees apart from above the forest, but Blu memorized its location. He flew down, and Jewel followed. They went inside a tree with a den in it. Twigs and leaves floored the tree den. The den itself was pretty big to fit a family of ten birds. Blu let Jewel in first. Blu followed.

"It's not done but-"

"It's fine! Oh! I feel that the eggs want to come out."

"I thought you said four days."

"I'm not in control!" she snapped.

"Sorry."

"Blu, don't be maaaaaaaaaaad. Ow! It's time."

Jewel walked to the end of the room and sat down. She closed her eyes painfully. Blu, reacting on instincts, walked over and grabbed her wing. She looked at him and smiled. He didn't act like a cheerleader or an enthusiast. He just gave her the confidence that she could do it. In fact, she did do it. She was so caught up in Blu's action that she didn't notice she had pain.

"Um, Jewel? I think the eggs came out."

Jewel's eyes widened, and she got to her feet. Both macaws looked at the eggs and counted three. Jewel looked if Blu was going to freak out, but he stood calm.

"Blu?"

"Yeah?"

"You're not freaking out."

Blu faced Jewel.

"Jewel, I wanted this. I'm ready to be a father."

Jewel smiled and wrapped her wings around her mate. They closed in for a kiss. They then looked down at the pearl white eggs and smiled. In about two weeks, they were going to be parents, and they couldn't wish for anything as great.
