This is an alternate scenario of 'Hey Al', where Al & Eddie never could get off the island.
---
A man and his dog, now both completely transformed into birds, are now stuck on a floating island, completely cut off from human civillization, and are wishing they were back in their old one-room apartment, as both man and dog.
Weeks pass, and it seems they have no hope of their wish coming true.
Until, one day, they end up meeting an explorer, and his friend, a scientist who accidentally came across the island.
They find the 2 new birds can talk, and Al & Eddie believe that helping the new people in discovering the secret of the floating island could be their ticket back home, and back to their old lives.
...Or will it?
