(Y/n) POV

Today, the Wild Kratts are flying the Tortuga over the tropical island of New Guinea. The perfect spot to find some of the most beautiful birds in the world, Birds of Paradise. The brothers and I ready our skydiving gear and open the cargo hatch.

Martin: It's a perfect day for skydiving!

Chris appears behind him and looks out over the jungle with me!

Chris: And this is the perfect way to land in the dense New Guinea rainforest.

(Y/n): And we're to find as many species of the amazing bird of paradise!

Aviva taps my shoulder, I turn to her as she tap the touch screen on my Creature Pod and then points to a clearing a little ways away and tells me.

Aviva: Okay, Jimmy is gonna set the Tortuga down in that clearing. I've programmed the coordinates into your Creature Pod as well as our satellite signal!

(Y/n): Understood, Aviva! We'll find you!

Aviva: Have fun, guys!

Aviva steps back and watches the brother's and I hop out of the Tortuga.

Martin/Chris/(Y/n): Whoo Hoo!

As we fall, Chris exclaims.

Chris: New Guinea is awesome! The biggest tropical island!

Martin: And home to the beautiful birds of paradise!

(Y/n): Definitely my vote for the prettiest birds around.

Martin: Beautiful birds of paradise, here we come!

As we deploy the parachutes, I look and realize we are going to miss the clearing Aviva specified. I call Aviva and the brothers on the comms and say.

(Y/n): Tortuga. Brothers. We're off target. I repeat, we are going to miss the LZ.

Aviva responds first.

Aviva: Copy that, (Y/n). Keep your Creature Pod on so the Tortuga can track you.

(Y/n): Copy that. See you soon.

Martin: Brace for impact, Wild Kratts!

Chris: Whoa!

The three of us crash through the forest canopy and my parachute gets caught in the branches. When I stop falling, I look and see I am no where near a branch or the ground, but I hear Martin in the tree next to me.

Martin: Whoo! Perfect landing, dude.

Chris: Right back at you, bro.

(Y/n): Speak for yourselves.

Chris hangs upside down out of the branches, meanwhile I try to undo my straps.

Chris: Besides, if we're looking for birds of paradise, the trees are a good place to look.

(Y/n): Whoa! Ahh!

I lose my grip as I undo my straps, I then slip out and fall to the the bros branch and land on my nuts.

(Y/n): AHHHHHHH!

Martin: Oh..... that was a lot.

I whimper as I fall backwards on the branch, I nurse my pride and groin as the brother's continue talking.

Chris: Yeah,....... but anyways, there's over 20 species of birds of paradise just waiting to be spotted.

As Chris looks around and Martin eats some wild cut nuts, one of the species of birds of paradise lands on my shoulder. I look and see a beautiful male Count Raggi's bird of paradise.

I see Chris looking around but doesn't see the bird on my shoulder, so after I recover from the fall, I decide to mess with Chris. Chris says as we hear various bird calls.

Chris: I hear Jewel-babblers,.....

Chris: ....pittas,.....

Chris: .... and that's a whistler.... So far, no birds of paradise in sight.

Martin eats some of the cut nuts in his hands.

Martin: Hey, these cut nuts aren't bad. *gasps*

I quickly quiet him down and play my prank.

(Y/n): So, you're saying you don't see one bird of paradise? Maybe a Count Raggi? It is the national bird of New Guinea.

I grab a cockroach and feed to the Count Raggi on my shoulder as Chris says.

Chris: *sighs* No. Not even a Count Raggi.

Martin tosses me a cut nut and I feed it the Count Raggi on my shoulder, I said.

(Y/n): I'm sure there's one somewhere. You just can't see it yet.

Martin is trying to hold his laughter. Chris then climbs higher up the tree, I tell him.

(Y/n): You're getting colder, Chris.

Chris: No, I'm not. I'm getting hotter. Rainforests are super humid.

I chuckle and say.

(Y/n): I mean Count Raggi like to hang out in the-

Chris slides down the tree past me. Martin tosses me another cut nut and I eat it happily.

(Y/n): -lower branches.

Chris finally comes back up and sees the Count Raggi on my shoulder as it eats another cut nut from my hand.

Chris: *excited* Yes! A raggiana bird of paradise. Otherwise known as the Count Raggi. *laughs* How long has he been sitting there.

I check my watch, but Martin answers first.

Martin: About the amount of time it took me to eat seven cut nuts.

Chris laughs off the prank and looks at the Count Raggi again with excitment.

Chris: I would love to see one of these guys display.

(Y/n): Believe it or not, birds of paradise have some of the greatest dances in the creature world.

Aviva POV

We were listening in on (Y/n) and the brothers, when we all heard dancing birds. I pulled up the flycam to see what (Y/n) is talking about.

Aviva/Jimmy/Koki: Dance?

Koki: What do you mean dancing birds?

(Y/n): *over comms* Yeah, male birds of paradise have colorful feathers so females will notice them. Then they dance to show the females that they are healthy and strong.

Martin comes into view and adds on.

Martin: Yeah. Each type of bird of paradise has a special dance move. I mean, these guys can really groove.

Koki then steps away from the computer and says.

Koki: Hey, I got a dance move too.

Koki starts dancing, then Jimmy says.

Jimmy: Me too. Chair dance.

Jimmy then comes into the room spinning in his gaming chair and then strikes a pose when it comes to a stop. Chris then steps out onto the clearing.

Chris: Here's my special dance move.

Chris leaps up and flips around on a vine and lands on his hands. Martin laughes and says.

Martin: Nice hand landing, bro. Now watch my feet, if you can.

Martin starts moving his feet like a tap dancer, his feet moving fast. Chris then asks (Y/n).

Chris: (Y/n), can you dance?

(Y/n): I can line and square dance. Check this out.

The Count Raggi hops from (Y/n)'s shoulder onto the tree branch, and (Y/n) starts doing a line dance.

I am enjoying watching everyone dancing, but then Koki tells me.

Koki: Aviva, join in.

Jimmy: Yeah, Aviva!

I blush in embarrassment and start saying.

Aviva: Uh, well-

(Y/n): Come on, Aviva! Dancing is fun!

Aviva: Well, I, uh- I can't dance.

Martin: Sure you can. Everyone can. Dancing can be whatever you want.

Chris: Yeah, it doesn't matter how good you are.

Chris leaps off a branch and front flips trying to land on his feet but ends up landing on his rear.

Chris: *laughs* Or if you make a mistake. As long as you're having fun with your friends.

Aviva: Well, I, uh-

(Y/n): Please?

I just.... can't do it.

Aviva: Oh look at the time. I've got to do that maintenance on, uh, everything. Bye!

(Y/n) POV

Aviva runs off and I grow a little concerned, but Chris got an idea.

Chris: Guys, I think the birds of paradise might be just the guide to give Aviva a little dancing inspiration.

Martin agreed.

Martin: Yeah, just watching them will want to make her get up and dance.

I agree and think for a moment.

(Y/n): Well, different species perform and live at different levels from the forest floor to the canopy. *looks around* Aw, but the Count Raggi flew away.

Chris: Oh no. Well, there's got to be more birds of paradise around here somewhere.

Martin: Let's go!

The three of us head off into the jungle and start looking for spots where birds of paradise might live.

Timeskip 1 hour later

The brothers and I have been searching but these birds are proving elusive, but I've been listening to bird calls and follow them.

Martin: Man, finding a small bird is hard.

(Y/n): Just gotta listen for-

(Y/n): -bird calls. This way.

I lead the brothers through the undergrowth and we find.

(Y/n): It's the Superb Bird of Paradise. He's calling out to the females to let him know he's ready to do his courtship dance.

Martin: Oh yeah, the superb bird of paradise, may not be the most colorful, but he's got talent. He can sing and dance.

Chris: I'm sure he could teach us a few dance moves.

Sure enough, a female superb bird of paradise flies down and lands on the same branch. The male then starts his courtship dance, he ruffles his feathers around his head and starts dancing circles around the female.

Chris is impressed and says.

Chris: Wow with a big blue happy face. Impressive.

Martin: I'm gonna call him Smiley.

The female though, is unimpressed and flies away.

Chris: Aw, the female flew away.

Martin: Guess she thought Smiley needed more practice.

(Y/n): You mean like this?

I took some steps to a small clearing and start by swaying, then hop around in circles, but end up tripping and falling into a bush.

Martin: *laughs* Nice trip, dude.

I get back up and keep trying.

Martin: See you next fall.

Sure enough.

(Y/n): Whoa!

I fall over and both of the brothers laugh at my misfortune.

(Y/n): This one's harder than it looks.

I open my Creature Pod and ask.

(Y/n): Aviva, did you see Smiley dance?

I see Aviva sitting down at her lab as she responds.

Aviva: Sure did, but I still don't think I can dance like that. I'll stick to the stuff I know I'm good at. Like making a bird of paradise disc for your Creature Power Suits.

Aviva then shows me some bird feathers and says.

Aviva: I found these feathers outside the Tortuga.

(Y/n): Nice!

Aviva: Over and Out.

Aviva POV

I turn off the video cam, take a look around to make sure no one is watching. I then stand up and try Smiley's dance moves. But I just can't do it.

Koki: Hey, Aviva?

I quickly stop, straighten up and look at Koki as she asks.

Koki: You okay?

I try to play it off and say.

Aviva: Fine, Koki. Just bumped into something....

Koki goes back to what she was doing and I tell myself.

Aviva: Or my feet bumped into each other. Dancing is just not my thing. *sighs*

(Y/n) POV

Smiley flies away as Martin says.

Martin: Smiley was a pretty good dancer. But he didn't seem to impress Aviva much either.

(Y/n): Yup, but there are other birds of paradise that have just as cool dance moves. Let's see if we can find some.

Chris: And maybe they'll be more Aviva's dance style.

A little while later and we're still looking.

Martin: Birds of Paradise. Where are you?

Sure enough, we hear a different bird call and I lead the two through the bushes and we find my personal favorite bird of paradise.

Chris: Oh, check it out. A Lawes' Parotia.

Martin: I've heard they're a better dancer than all the birds we've seen so far.

(Y/n): And my personal favorite. Maybe he can inspire Aviva to find her dance move.

Martin then points out the male Lawes' Parotia moving sticks and leaves around and asks

Martin: Hey, (Y/n)? What's he doing?

Chris: Hmm, why would he need to clear out sticks and leaves?

(Y/n): Because, he's making his own stage. A Lawes' Parotia creates his own stage called a lek. That's why he clears the area so it's nice and pretty.

Chris: That is so cool! I'm gonna try that too.

Chris steps behind us and starts moving sticks, pebble and leaves around. Martin then says.

Martin: A bird that clears his stage before he starts. Now that's an animal that takes dancing seriously.

(Y/n): Got that right. Let's name him....

Martin/(Y/n): Hip-Hop!

We look at each other and laugh.

Martin: Guess you are coming around to my nicknaming after all, huh Marine?

(Y/n): In your dreams, wise guy.

I suddenly get hit with a twig and we looks at Chris clearing the dance floor.

(Y/n): You're hitting me with your sticks, dude.

Martin and I start helping as Chris replies.

Chris: Hey, I'm just throwing the ones you keep tossing back at me.

Aviva POV

Koki checks in on the guys and tells me.

Koki: Hey, Aviva. Check it out. The guys are cleaning the floor. Never seen that before.

(Y/n): *over comms* I heard that!

Martin: *over comms* Besides, Koki, we're not cleaning.

Chris: We're clearing.

(Y/n): We're making our own lek. Like our pal, Hip-Hop.

Martin: These guys love being on stage. Right, Hip-Hop?

I walk up next to Koki and say.

Aviva: I've always been a little shy about being on stage. I can design Creature Power Suits all day, but put me on stage and I become as quiet as a mouse.

Koki: Not me. I kinda like being on stage. All the way in the back, which is where I was when I played a tree in Hamlet. *laughs*

(Y/n): Being on stage can be scary, but if live your life fearing what you can't do, you're not really living, Aviva.

I hear his words, but Martin chimes in and says.

Martin: Here come the female Parotia's. They never miss a courtship display.

Chris and I get up and point the camera so the crew can see as well.

Chris: And the females have a birds eye view of the lek from that branch. I think I'll try it.

Chris climbs the tree next us and looks down at Hip-Hop's lek.

Chris: Oh yeah! I can see perfectly from up here.

(Y/n): I'll keep my boots on the ground, thanks.

Martin: Besides, we've got a perfect view from down her too. And I've got a whole bag of cocoa-chews for the show.

Chris and Martin both pull out snacks and start munching. But I roll my eyes and notice other male Lawes' Parotia's building their own legs nearby.

(Y/n): This is going to be a massive performance. Lot's of male Lawes' Parotia's.

Chris: But the females outnumber them. They're here to watch a bunch of dances and switch between the leks to figure out which dance is best.

I am quick to call Aviva.

(Y/n): Aviva, do you copy?

Aviva comes on my Creature Pod screen and says.

Aviva: Go, (Y/n).

(Y/n): Aviva, you've got to get out here and watch Hip-Hop dance.

Martin comes up behind me and asks.

Martin: And please bring more snacks?

Aviva grows nervous and says.

Aviva: I... don't know, (Y/n). I'm a little busy.

(Y/n): Ah, come on. You're cooped up in that lab everyday, get out get some fresh air and watch an incredible creature moment. Please?

Chris: Besides, aren't the birds of paradise Power disc's done by now?

Aviva says in a nervous tone

Aviva: As a matter of fact, they are.

Aviva shows the three Creature Power disc's. I respond with.

(Y/n): Please, I bought you front row seats.

Aviva actually laughs at my jest and says.

Aviva: Okay, I guess it would be fun to see Hip-Hop's dance. But that doesn't mean I'll follow in his footsteps. See you soon.

The call ends and I eagerly await her arrival. A few minutes later, Aviva does arrive on her hover bike.

Chris: Right on time, Aviva.

Aviva pulls out each of our Creature Power Suits and says as she hands them to us.

Aviva: Three bird of paradise creature power disc's. I've already programmed them into your suit.

(Y/n): Thanks, Aviva. You're the best.

Chris: Looks like Hip-Hop is ready to go. Ready and be amazed at the courtship dance of the male Lawes' Parotia.

We all watch as Hip-Hop ruffles and transforms his feathers.

Aviva: *giggles* It's like he's wearing a ballerina tutu.

(Y/n): Or maybe like a spinning top.

Hip-Hop starts dancing by swaying and moving his body, then does a couple of head bobs.

We were all impressed with Hip-Hop's dance moves as it draws to a close with Hip-Hop standing still in a cool stance.

(Y/n): Hip-Hop sure is a show off.

Aviva: But he did attract a lot of attention from the girls. *giggles* Mother Nature is the best creature outfit designer ever.

Martin: And a world class dance teacher. Did you see Hip-Hop go?

(Y/n): Come on, Aviva, try it.

I stand up and extend my hand to Aviva. She accepts it and stands with me as I guide her to our lek.

(Y/n): It's easy.

I gently pull her out into the lek and say.

(Y/n): Just imitate what I do.

I hold Aviva's arm up and slowly guide her through some of the moves. I see she's nervous and tell her.

(Y/n): Look at me and don't overthink it. Just go with the flow and have fun.

Aviva tries but when she looks at me, her cheeks grow red and backs away. I get another idea and take off my Creature Power suit and say.

(Y/n): Here, put this on. Using the Lawes' Parotia power disc might help.

Aviva does feel a little more comfortable and agrees to give it a try.

Aviva: Thanks, (Y/n).

The brothers dance off and say.

Chris: Last one standing is out of luck.

(Y/n): Oh, you're on!

Aviva POV

Aviva: *to myself* I do wish I could dance, but I'm just not good at it.

I then see another male Lawes' Parotia land on a branch next to me.

Aviva: You really are a great dancer aren't you Lawes' Parotia? Wish I could say the same for me.

I then remember (Y/n)'s words about letting fear hold me back. I decide to slip on the Creature Power Suit.

Aviva: *giggles* A bit big on me, but a clever design.

I turn back to the Lawes' Parotia and touch it's back.

Aviva: Activate Creature Powers.

The suit forms around me, but instead of (Y/n)'s typical color, it has my favorite lilac purple color.

Aviva: Oh, I like it. Now let's see if I can dance.

I start trying and unwittingly start laughing and having fun while I do it. Suddenly, I hear a twig snap behind me. Fearing it was a crocodile, I turn around but am quickly stuffed into a large sack and carried away.

(Y/n) POV

I don't hear anymore bird calls and look around. I then tell the brothers.

(Y/n): Uh guys. Where's Hip-Hop?

Chris and Martin notice too.

Martin: I didn't see him leave.

Chris: Wait Aviva's not here either.

I look and see her hover bike is still here.

(Y/n): She left her hover bike here. That's so odd.

Chris: She wouldn't just fly the coop without telling us.

I get a call on my Creature Pod and answer it, I see Aviva in a dark tight space.

(Y/n): Aviva?! Where are you?

Aviva: (Y/n)? Can you hear me? I think I've been birdnapped. Help me, please!

The signal cuts outs and I start to grow very angry.

Chris: Aviva's in trouble.

Martin: How are we gonna track her.

I know his training is still early, as he's only 4 months, but I pull out my dog whistle and call for Avalanche. Sure enough a few minutes later...

Avalanche: *puppy barks*

(Y/n): Avalanche, here boy.

Avalanche runs up to me happy to see me and I pet his head.

(Y/n): Hey, Aviva's in trouble. I need you to find her.

I guide Avalanche to Aviva's hover bike and tell him.

(Y/n): All right, Avalanche. Seek. Seek.

Avalanche gets straight to work and sniffs Aviva's hover bike.

Avalanche: *sniffs* *barks*

(Y/n): Good boy. Now find Aviva, Avalanche. Find her.

Avalanche sniffs for which direction Aviva's scent goes in and takes off through the undergrowth.

(Y/n): Brothers! After that pup!

Aviva POV

The trip was pretty bumpy but finally I am set down and hear all too familiar voices.

Dabio: Donita! I found the pretty dancing birds.

Another Donita attack on animals, I've got to get out of here.

Donita: Dabio, why did you bring me these boring black birds.

Donita opens the sack but instantly notices me, smirks and says.

Donita: My mistake, Dabio. This one is gorgeous.

She reveals me and continues saying.

Donita: Reminds of something, or someone. You're Aviva from the Wild Kratts!

Aviva: Uh-oh.

I am caught and put into a cage as Donita actually admires my suit, I think.

Donita: Hmm, interesting suit design, Aviva.

Aviva: That's what I do: engineer the most amazing animal abilites and features right into the Creature Power Suit.

Donita: Oh yes, but you should really be using them for fashion. Touch of fox: Fox coat. And for evening, touch of mink: mink coat. You should give one to me, Aviva.

Aviva: Ha! That's the last thing I'm doing, Donita. They're for science.

Donita: Hmm. Dabio, have you locked her cage yet?

Dabio tries but it seems he can't lock a simple lock and says.

Dabio: Uh, let me try that again.

Donita: Good. Then get back out there and collect the pretty birds this time. No more of these boring black ones.

Dabio: I need to pack some things for my trip, Donita.

While the two banter, I see Dabio still didn't lock the cage correctly and I managed to open the cage door. The other male Lawes' Parotia hop out and start tossing stuff around the plane. I close the gate again as Donita and Dabio notice the birds making a mess.

Donita: What's happening.

One Parotia throws a purple marker and it marks on Donita's lounge chair.

Donita: No! My Irmeze Irmeze chaise. I thought you said you locked the lock.

Donita ducks to avoid other flying objects, but Dabio sees the birds merely having fun, I guess.

Dabio: At least the birds aren't boring anymore. Right, Donita?

Donita: They're making a mess on my desk. Stop them!

I watch as the Parotia's make a mess of Donita's jet.

Aviva: Oh, (Y/n). Please hurry.

(Y/n) POV

We take off after Avalanche, I though we lost him a couple times but we still managed to follow Avalanche to a big clearing where all became clear. We saw the dreaded pink blimp, which is actually her jet, I don't know.

(Y/n): *growls* Donita Donata.

Chris: No doubt another attempt to use endangered animals as high fashion.

Martin: We've got to get Aviva out of there.

I then remember.

(Y/n): Ah, but Aviva has my Creature power suit.

Chris: Martin and I still have ours.

(Y/n): Okay then, you two activate your Parotia powers and distract Dabio and Donita. Avalanche and I'll get in and rescue Aviva.

Martin: And the best way to distract Donita is looking like a bird.

A female Lawes' Parotia lands on Martin's head and both he and Chris touch it.

Chris/Martin: Activate Creature Powers!

Both Chris and Martin's Suits form into female Parotia's and shrink down to their average size.

Martin: Hey, where'd all the Male Parotia's go?

(Y/n): Let's go.

I head up to the let's steps and Chris says.

Chris: Time to rescue Aviva.

Martin: Huh, we've never said that before.

3rd Person POV

Donita's lounge area now looks like a tornado blew through it with the male Parotia's still tossing stuff around.

Donita: All I wanted was pretty birds to make a feathery gown. And now all I've got is kooky birds trashing my jet!

Somehow, Donita blames me.

Donita: This is all your fault. I'll make you into a feather hair clip faster than I can say-

Suddenly a blue and a green bird flies from seemingly nowhere and divebomb Donita.

Donita: Help! Oh! More birds have flown in and flattened my hairstyle! Get it! Get it before it lays an egg on my head!

Donita freaks out as Martin, in his Parotia power suit, lands and dances on Donita's head. Dabio tries to grab it but Chris, in his suit says.

Chris: Hey Dabio.

Dabio is amazed and asked.

Dabio: How does that bird know my name?

Donita saw through the disguise though and says.

Donita: They both know your name, Dabio, because it's the Kratt Brother's in bird suits! Get them!

Donita hops on Dabio's back as he chases down Chris and Martin. (Y/n) then sneaks in and gets Aviva's cage open.

(Y/n): *whispers* Up, through the air vents.

Aviva excited forgets to be quiet as she says.

Aviva: Great idea, (Y/n)! *gasps* Oops, too loud.

Both (Y/n) and Aviva look as Dabio and Donita stare them down.

(Y/n): Oh no.

Donita: Hello, Marine washout. You're little plan to distract me and free the birds won't work. Get him Dabio!

(Y/n): New plan!

(Y/n) bullrushes Dabio managing to knock Donita off his back. (Y/n) throws two punches at Dabio's face forcing him backwards. As (Y/n) goes for another punch, Dabio recovers and catches his fist. Dabio then manipulates (Y/n)'s fist to the side, turns around and elbows (Y/n) in the nose.

(Y/n): *grunts*

(Y/n) takes a step back, as he does, Avalanche ran between both (Y/n) and Dabio's legs and bites Dabio's ankle, causing him to buckle to one knee.

Dabio: Owie!

Avalanche let's go and runs back behind (Y/n) as he punches Dabio in the face. (Y/n) raises both his fists, but Dabio tackles (Y/n) away from the rest of the crew.

Donita meanwhile, deals with the brother's by using her pose orb on them, making them stuck in mid-flight. With the faint sound of crashing in the background from (Y/n) and Dabio's fight.

Donita: There, now I can think.

But Chris then notices the Male Lawes' Parotia's looking at them and comes to a realization and tells Aviva.

Chris: Aviva, check it out. The male Parotia's think that Martin and I are females. If you start your courting dance, maybe the others will compete with you for attention and start dancing too. Donita won't be able to stop them.

Aviva becomes terrified as she still believes she can't dance and be on stage.

Aviva: Oh, how did I get myself into this?

Martin: Aviva, it's the only way. You have to try.

Aviva then sees Dabio getting the upper hand on (Y/n), pinning him to the wall. Donita starts wrangling up some of the birds and decides to try anyway.

Aviva: You guys are right. All I can do is try.

Aviva gets out of her cage and says.

Aviva: Hey Parotia's, look at me!

Aviva ruffles her feathers the same way Hip-Hop did in his dance actually starts doing it perfectly.

Aviva: Hey! *laugh* This is fun!

Chris: Yeah! Told you, you could do it Aviva!

(Y/n) manages to look at Aviva and the other male Parotia's dancing. He looks back at Dabio, and grabs his wrists. He then slowly pushes Dabio's much larger build off of him, until he suddenly headbutts Dabio in the face. Dabio steps backwards, but (Y/n) quickly runs forward, grabs Dabio and finally slams his head into the wall.

Dabio: *dizzy* Ohhhhh... Ouchie.

Dabio remains stuck in the wall as (Y/n), as well as the rest of the jet, starts being rocked around from the momentum of the Parotia's dance competition.

Donita: Stop dancing! Ahhh!

The shaking was so intense, that it gave (Y/n) enough time to smash the pose beam orb and yell to the others.

(Y/n): Come on!

The male Parotia's and the entire Wild Kratts team, including Avalanche, hop off the jet as Donita finally gives up and flies off in her jet.

(Y/n) POV

I hold onto Avalanche's big leather collar and listen to Chris as he says.

Chris: Saving the day with Parotia dancing power! *laughs* Thanks Hip-Hop.

(Y/n): And thanks to Aviva for those awesome dance moves.

Aviva: *blushes* I couldn't have done it without all of you. And, of course, my amazing Creature Power Suit.

We all head back to the Tortuga HQ and celebrate our victory of nature over fashion.

Martin: Mission Accomplished! We saved Aviva, and the birds.

Aviva: And I got to wear a Lawes' Parotia Creature Power Suit.

Chris: And pull off some pretty sweet dance moves.

Koki then turns to the group in her chair and says.

Koki: And boy, did we learn a lot about birds of paradise. The males may be pretty, but they've got some moves.

(Y/n): The best part for me was seeing Aviva come up with a special move to get the males to compete with their own displays. And save the day by making Donita's jet start rocking! *laughs*

Chris: Hey, Aviva. Wanna show us your new fancy footwork?

Aviva: Okay, but this time you can keep the Creature Power Suit. These moves are pure Aviva. *laughs*

I am impressed as she pulls off some sort of ballerina spin, but almost doesn't stick the landing. But this time she just laughs it off and says.

Aviva: You know, we can't all be great dancers or geographers or Creature Adventurers, but as long as we try that's all that matters. Now, who wants to shake a tail feather?

Martin: I do!

Chris: Me too!

(Y/n): Count me in!

Koki: All right!

Jimmy: Whoo hoo!

Even Avalanche gets in on the action by chasing his tail, causing us all to laugh as we all dance our signature dance moves long into the evening. After dinner, everyone was exhausted and went to bed, but I still did a bed check. Once again, Aviva's bunk is empty and I look around for her. I make it to the skylight at the top of the Tortuga and see her sitting looking up at the stars with a lantern next to her. I joke with her saying.

(Y/n): Is this gonna be a regular thing when I don't find you in bed?

Aviva: *giggles*

I chuckle and ask.

(Y/n): May I?

Aviva looks up at me and smiles before patting the spot next to her.

Aviva: Of course.

I sit next to her and we both stare at the stars in silence for a few seconds, before I start saying.

(Y/n): I am very proud of you today, Aviva.

Aviva: It helped that you were there, even if you were getting your butt beaten.

(Y/n): *chuckles* It was more than that, I pushed you today to try your best, and you rose to the occasion like a Parotia.

Aviva: *giggles*

(Y/n): The thing I try to teach every ranger or Creature Adventurers, is to never be afraid to act with courage and integrity. You did that today. I'm proud to call you my f-friend.

Aviva's eyes start to fill with happy tears as she smiles. She then scoots next to me and leans against my arm.

Aviva: Thank you, for being here. For everything really.

(Y/n): You're welcome, Aviva.

Aviva lays against me until she falls asleep and I take her to her bunk and cover her with a blanket. I check on Avalanche before heading to my bunk and thinking to myself.

(Y/n): *to myself* Do I really like this girl?

I go to sleep pondering that very question.

(A/N): Hey! All you really wild readers out there! I thought this was fun. And it's true, I do think bird of paradise are some of my favorite birds. I've always wanted to see one in real life. Maybe someday.

Anyways, what's your favorite birds? Do you like dancing? Do you have a special skill or ability that you find awesome? Let me know in the comments and I'll catch you guys next time. PEACE OUT!!!
