So kiri goes back home tells her family all about this new friend and it’s a big deal because kiri has never had a real friend before she’s never gotten along with people they become best friends hang out almost all summer but kiri never got the chance to introduce said friend
School starts the sully kids go to the rich school surprisingly people aren’t so bad for rich kids thy all try to find they’re way around because it’s the first day and Neteyam has to break up a fight because of course loak is gonna do something stupid on the first day of school that’s how he meets aounung as his friend rotox is pulling him back Neteyam is pulls loak once that’s shit is over they all scatter to class Neteyam finds an empty seat as he’s getting settled in the most beautiful girl he’s ever seen walks in looking nervous and sits a few seats away from him ok that’s enough details I’m basically writing the damn fanfic

Avatar 3 Theory
As I've been spiralling into my mini avatar obsession, I've been seeing a lot of tiktoks, posts and Youtube videos everywhere talking about the possibility of the plotline for the third movie (such as the introduction of a fire clan known so far as the Ash people/Na'vi), most of which discussed Neteyam's resurrection. And after watching this tiktok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMYewN8QV/
and thought to combine their theory with that of the Ash clan - After Neteyam's death Jake and Lo'ak's relationship weakens, and so he separates from his family after they disagree to seek revenge (as they have become a part of the Metkayina who I have heard are known to be peaceful and live the same way as the Tulkkun) and instead attempt to find another solution, and so what if during Lo'ak's separation from his family he travels to the Ash clan with Payakan, the Tulkkun seen in the second film, in search for revenge on the humans for his brother's death? During his journey, his family could stumble upon a way to resurrect Neteyam through Kiri's powers, and after doing so, later on the Ash clan could betray Lo'ak and potentially side with the humans or wage a war against other native clans?
I just want Neteyam to come back :,(

Summary: Enid, a teenage human who have lived alone ever since her parents were killed by the Na'vi people when she was 8 years old living in a forest near the Awa’atlu village. She was on her own and solving the biggest mystery in her home when an Omaticaya boy, Neteyam, bugged her life.
“Who are you?” I asked bravely after watching the Omaticayan na’vi entered my territory inside the nearest forest of the Awa’atlu village. No Metkayinan ever entered that forest because they know nothing of that kind of place and they were never fond of lands.
I was facing behind him with a bow aiming at him. He could feel that weapon even from far away so he did not dare to move. “You’re one of the sky people.” He announced, quite certain.
“I said, who are you?” I repeated, this time I was more intense and eager at releasing the poisonous arrow across his head.
He slowly raised his hands on his head and carefully turned to see me, in return, I grasped my arrow tightly, ready to shoot at any moment. "I'm Neteyam."
"Go back. You can't be here."
"This is a forest, I'm an Omaticayan, this is my home."
My eyebrows arched in annoyance. "Well, not this one. Go back or this arrow will go through your skull." I moved forward unhesitatingly to show him that I'm not afraid of doing what I said. He stepped back, fear on his face.
"Look, I just miss my home, okay?" he started explaining as he lowered his hands. "I've been in the ocean for too long and I just want to somehow enjoy the home I used to call. They told me this place is very dangerous and I've been ordered to never come here. But I want to see myself."
I studied him and when I confirmed that he's just a mindless na'vi, I drew back my bow and hung it behind my back. "You should have listened to them. This is no place for any Na'vi."
Confusion flustered on his face. "Then why do you live here? This world is even more dangerous for you"
Suddenly, a rasp sound occured somewhere behind the trees. I got tensed and kept a keen eye around me, forgetting about the na'vi in front of me.
Neteyam chuckled at my reaction. "It's probably just some wild harmless animal. If you live in this forest, you should now."
I ignored him and focused on the rasping sound nearly coming to our place. "Skawng" I hissed.
He was about to protest again and probably insult more when the sound became louder and nearer, his ears twitched. Suddenly, fear crossed his face as if the sound wasn't familiar.
I started locating the sound. Even though I'm a human, I've developed and practice my hearing to become sharp. Because I've been all alone in my life, I had to train myself to adapt and be wary of this dangerous world, for me at least.
The rasping stopped. But I knew that something terrible is gonna happen. And with a blink of an eye, two black angry forest animal came to attack the both of us. They were almost as big as the Na'vi in front of me.
While the animal was still on the air when it jumped, I released my arrow and it hit its arm. It fell down to the ground but didn't affect it, rather, it became angrier, growling, and charging at me. When it started running again towards me, I readied my bow and aimed straight at its head until it fell down and died.
On the other hand, since Neteyam was unprepared and weaponless, the animal almost knocked him down but he blocked it and threw it with all his strength against a tree. Unfortunately, he got scratch on his chest. He hissed in pain.
Neteyam was about to prepare himself from the next attack of the animal but he suddenly lost balance of himself and almost fell down.
"Shit." i murmured when I saw the wound on his bare chest with two scratches directly from the claw of the animal.
I didn't waste any second and before the animal even make its move, I prepared my bow and hit it right through its head which immediately died.
"You stupid fuck." I said then run to the na'vi. He was bleeding, but it's not the mere wound I was worrying about.
"It's fine, it's just some scratch." He said with a faint smile but his face is starting to get pale. "I can just go home and... and." he didn't finish his statement because he fell down to the ground, very unconscious and ill.

Neteyam's POV
There was something bothering me about that 'dangerous' forest these Metkayinan people were warning me about. Dad have strictly warned us to listen despite the temptation and I'm trying my very best to stop my siblings most especially, my brother Lo'ak from disobeying that order. We've brought enough shame to the family.
But I always find my self staring at that forest. Missing our former home, yes, but there's more.
Until one day, when I was riding my Ilu alone, I saw a small figure standing from there. At first, I couldn't believe what I saw, but then, it started to become clear. It's a sky person.
It's a female. Unlike those sky people that I've known for years who wear clear glasses of mask that cover their whole face to breathe, this one is wearing a black mask that only covers her nose and mouth. The only feature I could see is her eyes. Staring at the sea, examining something.
She didn't see me but she left and vanished between the trees.
I knew I had to follow her and do something. What exactly? Honestly, I don't know. I was too drown with curiosity.
Then next things happened so fast and I just found myself in pain and slowly fainting to the ground.
---
The first thing that I felt was my soul being forcefully dragged back to life and I had to open my eyes in shock and cough so many times. After being internally tortured, pain in my chest started occurring because of my sudden action.
"Aghh-" crisis started and I don't know whether to continue coughing to relieve my inernals or to stop to put an end for the pain in my chest.
But in the end, I decided to calm down. My eyes were shut trying to feel my whole, body.
After few minutes, I finally calmed down and memories started to come back. I opened my eyes only to see that I'm curled in a small white bed with a mask on my face.
What's crazier is a sky person standing in front of my bed staring down at me, in disgust.
"You." I uttered when I saw the last woman I've been with before I've been knocked down.
Unlike before, she's not wearing her black mask so I could see her face now. She looks young, like spider, and It's very odd for me because I've never seen a young female sky person person before. But that's my least concern for now.
"Me what?" she asked sarcastically.
"What happened to me?" I check my self and found white cloth wrapped around my chest where the wounds were.
"You almost saw your God. But you survived..." she walked back to go to a table where I guess the medicines were placed. "...unfortunately." she continued.
"Why? I don't understand. I was just bruised by an animal but I lost my consciousness. And it's not even that deep."
She turned to look at me with an angry expression pasted on her face. "Yea, that's why I told your stupid ass to get the fuck out, because this place is not for outsiders. Those venomous animals smelled you and attacked you. You could have died, which in my dismay you did not. Now you're in my place and I don't know why I even healed you." she burst out, shook her head as she turned around again to clean the mess on the table.
I looked down. "Thank you for saving me."
Her body stopped from doing anything and looked at me in disbelief.
"Okay, umm, I'll just go home. I need to get home before eclipse." I looked for any windows inside her small place but found nothing.
"It had passed. You've been out for about 15 hours and sun is about to rise." She explained which shocked me.
"What?!" I burst out. Mom and Dad's gonna kill me. "I really need to go." even with pain in my chest I got up and was ready to run when something hard on my wrist stopped me from running away.
"What the.." I looked at my hand and saw a round metal connected to a chain glued to the wall. "What's this? Take this out, I need to go." I tried to break it but it didn't bulge a bit.
A sarcastic smirk played on her face. "And risk my place? No."
Anger occupied my head. "You need to let me out of here. I'm not telling about your place, I promise. Please. They may be looking for me now, furious, and I'm telling you, they will not stop."
"What? Am I supposed to believe you and let you out?"
"I'm telling you, by not letting me out immediately, you're risking your place even more." I was hesitant to say anything further, but I was eager to be freed. "My father, he's a warrior. He was the Olo'eyktan of my former clan and he's not gonna stop until he finds me. And I'm sure that they're targeting this place maybe not now but soon enough. And I'm warning you, he would kill you. THEY would kill you if they found that your specie lives here. He's toruk makto."
With my last sentence, her eyebrows raise. "Shit. You're Jake Sully's son?"
I was not shocked that she knows my father so I nod. "Yes. And you don't want to experience his wrath."
But she didn't seem to hear what I said. Suddenly, she laughed. Laugh that sounds amused and challenged. "I can't believe it. I kidnapped his son. But I don't get it. You don't look like him. You look... stupid."
I rolled my eyes and try to maintain my temper. "I'm not stupid." I whispered doing my best not to oppose her insult. "I'm a warrior like him. And once I get out from here, you wouldn't like it."
She laughed. "Warrior? Yea. You almost got killed by a wild animal in a 2 second battle."
I gritted my teeth in annoyance and in embarrassment. "It was a surprised attack and I have no weapon."
"You expect your enemy to schedule a fight for you to prepare?"
I was taken aback by her statement. I was speechless.
When she noticed that I wasn't able to answer back, she a sky people's cloth with long sleeves and put it on her. "I don't care who your parents are. You're staying here where I know you wouldn't spill about my place." she said walking away.
"Wait, where are you going? Let me out of here! What am I supposed to do here? You can't use me for anything."
She laughed as if it was the dumbest thing she have ever heard. "I know that fact. And I'm still thinking what to do with you. Probably starve you to death? I don't know and I don't care. Plus, I'm not actually really fond of 9ft tall blue cats so who knows?" she said as she wore her black mask then opened the door and walked outside.
"Hey! Hey!" I shouted trying to call her but she never returned.
Cats?? What's that?

Enid's POV
It's getting worse
Right after I got out from my small lab/house, I wandered around the forest. I made sure that I sprayed this repellant I made that removes my scent against the nose of the animals here.
The sun is already up and I was examining the plants and trees I see. Their colors are starting to pale, some even fall indicating it's dead.
Trees have small black spots on their trunks meaning that they've also been infected.
It's almost seven months since this epidemic has started. I have no clue where this chemical came from, but it's affecting mostly my forest. Animals started to get wild, venomous, and dangerous. Plants are starting to die and be poisonous. I always have to run a test at every food I bring home before cooking it.
Before, I was chill and safe around these living things, not until one of the wild animals, with big nasty open pores on its back, attacked me. When I dissected it after I killed it, I saw something wrong with its system.
And I knew then, had to put an end to this.
My neighbours-- the Na'vi people which doesn't know I exist near them-- soon will be affected. If this unknown chemical infected the water; their home, no matter how vast it is, it'll be dangerous for them.
I went near a tree with the worst infection that makes it look almost black. Taking the little knife in my pocket and gloves on my hands, I burried it to the trunk to get some samples, and to my horrify, it's like digging some dirt.
It's totally black, sticky, and disgusting. I wrapped it around this small fabric I brought then carefully putting it in my bag.
Roaming my eyes around, I can't help but feel sorrow. It used to be very healthy and lively, now, it's like gasping for breathe.
I closed my eyes. "I'll save you. I will give everything I have to repay you your kindness and shelter for the past years."
---
It's already sunset when I came back to the lab with samples and couples of food to test and hopefully to eat. The small garden I built in front of it can't seem to bear fruits which I think because it's also affected, that's why finding foods became a lot more struggles for me.
As I opened the door, I was almost thrown back by loud scream, growls, and barks from the inside that I had to slam the door close after going in, afraid that some creatures might here the noises.
"Get away from me!" Neteyam tried to frighten the small animal on the floor by hissing like a cat, but to no avail. He's standing on the bed and because he's too tall, he had to bend while his bruised wrist was tied in a chain.
I rolled my eyes. I've almost forgotten about this blue creature I kept.
I clicked my tounge and the Baby Mongrel stopped to look at me. "George, here." its enraged face turned into a thrilled one as it run to me, brushing its head on my leg.
"You keep that as a pet?!" Neteyam exploded, panting. "You don't keep a mongrel as a pet."
I shook my head as I laid the things I gathered on the table including my mask. "In case you don't know, I'm color brown, 5 and a half. I'm not a Na'vi."
I didn't waste any time and took every samples out of the fruits to run the test in the machine. It usually takes 10 minutes or so, so I also pulled the sample from the infected tree.
"Are you really not planning to let me go?" He asked, sitting down. He's looking at his wrist which turned to red probably because of his attempt to run.
With the use of tweezer, I detached a bit from the nasty trunk. "Nope." I answered, almost in a whisper.
He bit his lip. "I hope you know that I'm actually thinking about your safety and your place as well. I'm okay being scold at, but this is your home and they'll destroy this." he explained which I didn't give much care about.
"Mhm..." I answered again as I put the sample in the microscope slide and place it on the stage of the microscope to look at it.
"They could just toss you around then kill you."
I nodded. "...mhm..."
"What's that?" I didn't know what Neteyam was talking about because I was busy investigating, so I didn't answer him.
My eyes widened with what I saw. Unlike before, I could only see the chemicals combined with the cells of plants, but now, because the cells are dying, I had a better look at those molecules. It's very familiar.
"Shit." I said as I backed away.
"What? Why?" Neteyam seemed to be intrigued and wanted to take a look too but he couldn't reach it. "What's that, tell me."
"It's from a substance on Earth." I said in amusement knowing well that it's a statement for myself.
"Tell me what's going on." he demanded, uneasy maybe because he wanted to relate to my reaction.
I was hesitant to tell him but I was dumbfounded. "The chemical that's killing this forest came from a substance on Earth. Which means..." i paused for a bit. "...they're here. Near this forest."
"Killing the forest? This forest is dying?!" he said in awe. I didn't entertained him more because he's in no need to catch up. It's my business, not his.
I started thinking about the possibilities of how it happened. I've been roaming around for months, there's no sign of sky people. It doesn't make sense.
"Let me help you. Come on, let me help you cure this forest."
I shook my head trying to solve my mystery. "No" but I still answered him.
His chains started to make sound as he, again, tried to get out. "Please. Forest is my home, I can't just sit here and wait for it to die. I want to help this forest. Please--"
In annoyance, I rolled my eyes. I can't think properly with his noises. "Okay, help me."
His face brightened. "Really? How?"
"Shut your trap. You're fucking annoying." then his shoulders dropped.
George might have felt my anger so from licking its legs, he started growling as Neteyam again, which in return Neteyam hissed at it.
"George." I called so he went back to licking.
"Look, let me help you. I know you know that I'll be a great help. An Omaticayan on your side, we can totally save this forest."
I raised one of my eyebrow. "You really have that confidence with yourself?"
"No, I'm just stating a fact. I'm not trying to show off or anything. I could help you, big time."
I checked him out. But nothing in him convince me that he's not reckless and a mess. His overall looks shouts disaster. Even his annoying begging smile disgusts me. "No." once again.
He started bit his lip as his fists rolled. "You won't succeed." he finally said. I could hear the emphasis in every word. "You're alone and, well, small, you'll gonna consume more time. And before you even find a cure, this forest will die. Don't try to be independent, it won't do you any good."
I sighed shakily, trying to control my temper. But it seems my temper IS controlling me. "That's it." I went to a small drawer nearby and pulled out a magnet.
I hastily walked to him then crawled to the bed. He was confused when I grabbed his big hand where the chain is and put the magnet on the metal on his wrist. In a second, the chain opened. And I got up, presenting the door.
"You're fucking free. Get out."
His mouth fell down. Not in surprise, but because he's angry. "No, I'm not getting out. You kidnapped me, you have to take full responsibility." he said, sitting at the edge of the bed.
I rolled my eyes. "That's why I'm letting you out, you fucking. donkey."
"No, I'll help you. I've decided."
"You really wanna die?"
He smirked. "Why? You're gonna fight me?"
"No, but the oxygen will."
"You can't fool me. I have a mask--"
"--which lasted probably an hour ago and you're just breathing oxygen now."
His face started to burn in anger, thinking what to do. He know he can't just dismiss what I said. He can't risk it.
"ARGH!" After a minute of contemplating, he finally stood up, throwing his mask on the bed. He looked down at me, I thought he was gonna say something but he was just enrage.
Stomping his feet, he walked to the door, his braids swaying with his aggressive actions.
I smirk knowing I won. "Call your Ikran. You'll die on the road."
He opened the door and slamed it shut behind.

(This Story is also available on Wattpad and AO3, slide down for links)
My morning was a cloud 9 because I had very long sleep after I didn't get enough the other night taking care of Jake Sully's son. He was also in my bed, may I add. And knowing that I'm one step closer in solving my mystery, I was at bliss.
I cooked some foods for myself from the fruits I picked yesterday. From a small door made just for George in the lab, he entered wagging its tail happily. It's a good thing that George is a picky eater. It's like he's really made to be a house pet, he doesn't eat anything in the wild I didn't serve for him. Therefore, I don't have to worry that he might anything poisonous along his way.
I served his food on the bowl I made just for him and made him eat it as aI eat my own. After our breakfast, I took some papers and pen to list down all the things in the forest that could possibly be a cure or part of the cure. It took me a whole page to finish it. I've got no much time. I need to find a temporary cure as soon as possible.
I wore my jacket on me then my mask that I just refilled with oxygen. I, then, opened my door together with George to feel the fresh wind.
"Let's go George." I joyfully announced then we walked away.
"Good morning, sunshine." my body froze and George growled hearing that voice coming from the roof of my small lab. I shut my eyes tightly then slowly turned around, hoping this is all a nightmare and I'm just sleeping on the wrong side of my bed.
"What are you doing here?" I asked the Na'vi sitting at my roof as if it's some branch of a tree eating some fruit in his hand. A smile was playing on his lips as if we were some friends of sort.
"Come on now..." Neteyam threw the fruit as he finished then jumped landing right in front of me. "...it's not like I didn't tell you last time that I've decided to help, right?"
"And it's not like I permitted you to do so." I argued back.
He tilted his head as he looked down at me as his height literally towered over me. "Don't be rude. It's so early in the morning. How about you just lay back to your soft bed, tell me what to do, and I'll do all the job for you--"
"Aren't your parents looking for you?" I asked seriously trying to intimidate him.
"Maybe..." He looked around then back at me. "...but I can handle a whole day scolding just to help this forest."
I stared at him a bit more, realizing that unlike his father, he's got no eyebrows nor fifth finger. I think he got it with his mom.
I rolled my eyes trying not to ruin my day. I didn't say any word as I started walking away to god-knows-where. And I think Neteyam took it as a sign that I approved of his presence because he was gracefully following, like a kid jumping most of the times.
"So, what's your name?" he asked, smiling, his fangs showing. He was bending his neck to see me and it kind of annoyed me.
Without any notice, I changed path. I saw the tree I need to get the first element on my list.
"Hey." Neteyam called but he easily caught up to me. Now, we both stood in front of a tall tree. "I was asking you a question."
"And why would I say my name to you?" I answered just for the sake of talking while checking on the leaves that sit at the very top of the tree. I can't use dry leaves, I need fresh one, unfortunately there's none reachable for me.
"Because you need to get used to me. I'll be tailing you around."
I sighed. "Enid." I simply answered then went around the tree to try my luck and find an accessible fresh leaves in which he followed me, clueless.
"Init?"
I rolled my eyes. "E-Nid." I emphasized.
There was a big "O" formed in his lips as if he was amused by my name. "Enid." he said dreamingly. "That's very beautiful. We can work on that." he nodded continuesly.
My shoulders dropped when we circled back to where we arrived, yet, there are no leaves to be found.
"Well, what have we got here?" finally, his attention shifted to where I was looking-- the tree. "You need something from there?"
I looked at him having a clue what might happen in the next minutes. "Yes. I need fresh leaves from this tree."
He nodded smirking. "And you can't reach it, can you?" he was trying to keep it cool, but he can't seem to hide his playful smile.
I scratched my forehead. "Unfortunately." it was almost a whisper.
His smile grew wider that he had to look at his side to hide it then bring his gaze back at me again. "Well, that's sad. It seems you need someone expert at climbing trees to help you."
I tried not to look at his teasing face. "Yea."
He started checking my face, probably having fun because he'll finally hear something he wants to hear. "But you don't need any help, right? Just like what you said before. So I was thinking that maybe you could handle it yourself. C'mon, climb it--"
"Could you please..." I looked at his eyes trying to control my temper. "...just climb the damn tree and get some leaves?"
He pouted and stepped back, acting scared, playfully of course. "Why are you acting mean? You're just asking something from me. Could you at least be nice about it?"
"There's no way I'm going to beg for you to do a simple task."
"Oh it's fine. It's fine. I can also easily decline you and we can both stare at it until Eywa give it to you."
I bit my lip. "Fuck it." I hissed. "Fine."
I rolled my eyes and sighed in defeat. It took me a few seconds to build the words in my lips. "Neteyam..." I swallowed annoyingly when he started smiling again, like a kid waiting for the next lines, as his tail started to wag. "...can you climb this tree and get me some fresh leaves..." I was planning to end the statement there when Neteyam raised his non-existing eyebrows like waiting for the most exciting part of a story. "...please?"
He smiled proudly. "See? It wasn't that hard, was it? You look better being nice." he, then, started to examine the tree.
I looked at George who have been staring intensely at Neteyam ever since he joined our walk.
Neteyam, like an expert climber as he actually is, held the branch above him and pulled himself up. It's like the tree was actually made for someone like him to climb due to the big gaps of its branches, which is a fact. I saw how he whined in pain due to the wound he has on his chest. But he did not stop. It just took him three branches to climb before he finally found leaves.
I was shocked when, instead of taking few leaves, he split the branch out of the trunk than wave it to me, joyfully. I was about to tell him to just take some but he was back at focusing with his way down. In a swift second, he's beside me again.
"That was fun." he greeted.
"Why did you take the whole branch? I just need some." I scolded because it will be too heavy for me carry.
"Oh" he looked at it and snapped small branch from it but didn't present it to me. He just keep it with himself.
"Give it to me."
Suddenly, he smirked again and my world shattered once more. "You know, I made some realizations up there."
I clicked my tounge. "Just state your goddamn cost."
He laughed. "Okay, chill. How about we make a condition. Every time i've got to help you, you will answer my question. Any question."
I looked at him boredly. "You're really annoying. I want to fucking crush you."
He laughed again. "Trust me, I know."
"What's the question?"
He act as if thinking, putting the back of his hand under his chin. "How old are you?"
I didn't waste any second thinking whether to answer his lame question. "Eighteen, now give me the leaves."
"You're eighteen?" he asked in amusement as he give me the leaves and throwing the rest of the big branch on the ground. "That's cool, I'm nineteen."
It's not like I even care.
I started walking again as I store it in my bag, leaving him behind knowing that he'll follow me once more.

—————————-ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ-—————————
The sound of a muffled voice pulled me out of my dream before i could even recall it, my eyes groggily opening to a painfully bright light, my eyes tracing the worn wallpaper and towards the figure standing in the doorway; Tirotay.
“(y/n), c’mon, mom said to get up now or you’ll have to catch the bus to school.” he spouted firmly, before sauntering down the hall…leaving the door wide open.
“uugGHHH- close my damn door bro!” I yelled, while knowing full well he wasn’t gonna come back to close it, so i shot up from my bed, already pissed off and slammed my door, tuning around i was able to take a look at my new room. besides a few unpacked boxes here and there, my room was pretty much the way i wanted, which made this place a little less bad. my favourite of course being my tall bed, with a disheveled display of a soft quilt, decorated with an embroidery design, topped with a modest amount of silk covered pillows piled at the headboard; undeniably being the centrepiece of the room, i would GLADLY stay in that bed all day if that was a choice.
I lazily through on some clothes, more concerned with comfortability rather than style; it’s not like i was trying to dress to impress, i don’t care about what these people think of me to be honest, and im only going to school so i can get my graduation certificate and that’s it. i don’t need friends, i already have plenty from back home, so i don’t need anymore.
after brushing my teeth and hair i head downstairs to the kitchen to grab the lunch mom made for us, shoving it in my bag.
“(y/n)! are you ready yet babe? we gotta go!” mom shouted from the living room.
“yup- im ready now! i’ll be waiting in the car!”
————
you and your brother had both already done orientation day and just headed towards the office to get our schedule, both silently praying we still knew how to get there from memory. reaching the principals office we we greeted with two happy faces.
the principal slightly perked up at our presence, “(y/n), Tirotay, it’s nice to see you again.” after we exchanged pleasantries, she handed us our timetables and gestured to the sweet looking girl standing next to her and continued. “this is Tsireya, she will be your guide.”
“Hello! it’s nice to meet you both!” Tsireya chirped, followed by a short wave and a smile.
“Hi, it’s nice to meet you too.” i quietly replied with a nod. looking over at my brother who was avoiding her gaze entirely, rolling my eyes I turned my attention back to Tsireya, who giggled in response.
“Ok, let’s get you two to your homeroom class.” Tsireya gestured to follow her.
———
“alright aaand this is your homeroom (y/n)! you have Mr. Samual, so you’re definitely one of the lucky ones- hes really nice.” she whispered the last part, “and hey if you need someone to hang out with at lunch, you’re more than welcome to come sit with me!” she offered.
“thanks- appreciate the offer.” I gave a simple nod and then walked into my classroom. ‘so much for not making friends…’ i thought to myself, but she was so nice, and that made it really difficult to not reciprocate.
————
The bell rang pulling me out of my dazed thoughts, civil war history was never really my favourite. the teacher was saying something about homework, though i really couldn’t care less, packing my stuff away in my bag and making my way out of the classroom, swinging my bag over my shoulder.
walking into the cafeteria was a little daunting, but thankfully i didn’t draw too much attention. i saw Tsireya eating next to a few of her friends, but i decided against going up to them, I was more comfortable by myself anyway. Scanning over the cafeteria once again, I noticed a side door leading outside, so i tried my best to not be seen sneaking out.
outside wasn’t anything breathtaking, but it was empty, which was all i needed. i leisurely, walked up to a tree in the distance, setting myself down and grabbing my lunch from my bag. pulling my phone from my pocket, i leaned it against my bag, putting my headphones in and choosing a random youtube video that looked entertaining enough.
a few minutes passed as i mindlessly ate my food, though my thoughts were interrupted by laughing, i look up to see a collective group of boys holding their stomachs. at first i didn’t give a fuck, but then i saw someone amongst the group who didn’t look too happy; a girl. i paused my video to hear what they were saying.
“Leave me alone!” she shouted, though falling on deaf ears, as their smug demeanours didn’t falter.
“Awww the little freak wants us to stop..” one of the boys taunted, getting up in her face, “If you don’t like the way we’re treating you, why don’t you just call your big brother to come save you~ orrr you could just run off and cry like you did last time.” his words causing the girl to grimace, as the rest of the boys laughed.
i had seen enough- already stopping off towards them, a scowl painting my features. the boys kept circling her like vaulters, the boy who insulted her before clearly was the main perpetrator, the other boys looking like nothing other than his “minions”.
“HA-! look! the freak’s starting to cry again!” he scoffed, expressing fake sympathy towards the girl. “I’m sorry we hurt your wittle feelin-”
he was cut off after i shoved him away from the girl. “what the hell is wrong with you? Do you seriously have nothing better to do?” i scolded, a disgusted look taking over my features. he looked at me up-and-down, clearly offended that i had ruined his fun.
“who the hell are you?” he spat, looking at me, as if I was the scum of the earth.
“who am i? who the fuck are you? honestly, you think with all that forehead you got you’d have a big enough brain to comprehend common decency, but i suppose i can’t be surprised, since in seems your skull is so fucking thick, it makes sense that you never had a lot of brain growth.” i spat, the boy in front of me now seething.
one of the other boys stepped towards me but was halted by his leader. “c’mon ao’nung, these bitches aren’t worth it.” another boy spoke, causing the boy he was talking to to scoff, staring you down before turning around and walking away, his little followers tagging along behind him.
ao’nung…that was a name you wouldn’t forget anytime soon.
after they had left i immediately turned around to check on the girl. “Hey, are you ok?” i asked, slight worry crossing my face. the girl looked at the concrete, blinking away frustrated tears.
“yeah i’m fine,” she meakly spoke, looking up at me, “thank you…for that.”
“of course.” i smiled, given her a nod of acknowledgement. my eyes trailed down to the girls bag, a green crocheted tote bag with a flower in the centre. “I like your bag. It’s very pretty.” gesturing to it.
she gave a shy smile, eyes focused on it as her grip on the strap tightened. “thank you, i made it myself.” her eyes meeting mine again. “my name’s kiri by the way.” she said with a smile, which i immediately returned.
“name’s (y/n). nice to meet you.”

Lo’ak x GN! Reader
You and Mo’at are in her tent grinding and mixing plants to make ointments and new medicines for when the worriers come back home. You were in your own world when suddenly Tuk yelled out “They’re back! ____! Kiri! Spider! Hurry up!” You rushed to put your things down and hurriedly ran to the big crowd that surrounded them.
You pushed through the crowd saying ‘Excuse me’ & ‘Sorry’. Once you got to the fromt your eyes immediately went to the Sully’s. Currently Neteyam and Lo’ak were getting scolding from their father. Neytiri stepped in and was talking some sense into Jake while also trying to take Neteyam to his grandmother to heal him.
Lo’ak had to stay behind while still getting scolded by his father. You couldn’t stay long so you had to leave and go to your tent. Jake dismissed Lo’ak and he had a sad but also angry look in his eyes while he tended to his Ikran and stormed off to find you. While you were mixing new ingredients to make his new medicine you wanted to try, Lo’ak stormed into your tent and sat in front of you. You just sighed and set your stuff down...again.
“What is wrong Lo’ak?” You look at him in his eyes waiting for him to speak “I’m upset at my father. He always scolds me, it makes me feel like a big disappointment to everyone.” He has a sad look on his face and you held out your arms for him to take comfort into. He rushed into your arms quickly which you almost fell backwards on the floor but you caught yourself.
You held him close to you as you ran your fingers through his hair. He sighed calmly as you pressed a light kiss to his forehead “You know you’re not a disappointment to anyone Lo’ak, your father is just hard on you. I don’t think he has to be that hard on his sons but he has a reason for that.”
The atmosphere is calm inside your tent. You’d often find crystals in the forest to keep and collect. One of the humans has a collection too, they said that they use them to do something called ‘Manifestation’. You wanted to try it out, so it will hopefully give you more opportunities from Eywa to show you in the direction you desire.
You often manifested that Lo’ak and his fathers relationship will greaten sooner or later. Hoping that they will finally stop butting heads with each other. You’ve went to Great Mother as well, praying to her that they will finally get along.
It has only been a few minutes of you continuing your work when you suddenly hear a light snore on your chest. You look down and there you see it, Lo’ak has fell asleep on you. You lightly chuckled and tried not to move as much to not wake him. Then an idea came into your mind. You leaned your face down and lightly kissed his fore head, this his left and right cheek, his chin, his cheekbones, his nose, and then his lips.
That’s when he started to stir a little in his slumber. You sighed lovingly down at him watching you lover sleep peacefully. He always looked so handsome when he was sleeping, you just now realized. After a few more minutes you decided to wake him, as it was eclipse and his family was probably worried about where their son was.
Then, another Idea came into your mind. You saw a bowl of water, over next to you. The you slowly looked back at Lo’ak whilst trying to get the bowl. You finally grabbed it and you counted down in your head ‘5,4,3,2,1!’. Then he woke up immediately and had an annoyed look on his face and he stood up, whilst you were laughing your ass off at him.
“You should’ve seen you face Lo’ak!” You held your hand over your mouth trying to hold back more laughter. “Oh yeah?” then he suddenly poured the rest of the water on you! You stood there shocked, while Lo’ak was across from you laughing. The you stood up aswell and then started laughing with him.
Your fun has to come to and end when you remember why you woke him up. “You have to go to your tent now Lo’ak, it is eclipse.” He groaned while you pushed him out of your tent. “It was fun spending time with you today love.” He turned around and gave you a passionate kiss on your lips as a goodbye and you watched him walk away to his tent with a smile on his face.
“Goodnight ____!” He yelled with a wink afterwards you just smirked in return “Goodbye Lo’ak.” You said with a smile and a wave, then you went back into your tent to wind down. You were happy with yourself that you could lift your boyfriends mood before he went back home today.

CHEIF’S DAUGHTER
Pt.2
Neteyam x f!metkayina!reader
Summary: your duty is now to keep an eye on the new arrivals. Observing their training and abilities with your siblings. You’re not the only one observing tho
__________________________________________
“Oh dear sister you should’ve came!” Tsireya bolted into your marui, filling it up with her bubbly personality
“Oh it was so fun!” She giggles quickly sitting down in front of you with a big grin
“Though extremely tiring, the sullies can’t keep their breath underwater for long” she pouts waiting for a response
“I saw” you said looking up at her “and I saw everything” now your calm face twisted into a smirk
“You have my blessing” you quickly chipped in
“What! No sister! That isn’t what you think it was I was just helping Lo’ak with his breathing and what he’s doing wrong and-“
“So that’s the boy’s name” you cut her mid sentence
“Sounds pretty nice with yours I mean-“
“Dear sister Y/n please”
“Yes yes I won’t tease you no longer”
The two of you laughed like little girls gossiping. Not everyday you get to spend time with Tsireya, you have always been busy helping your parents. If not hunting, then healing. If not helping people with their work then it’s about chores. If not teaching little girls in your village how to dance and sing then it’s about practicing your moves.
“By the way, I think you got and admirer from a far” Tsireya chipped in when your laugh died down
“I could say the same for you”
“No but really!”
“The older Sully boy!” She pointed out.
“Neteyam! He asked so many questions about you today!” The table has turned. She’s now the one smirking.
“Soooo sooo many, like ‘hey what’s her name?’ ‘Is she older than you?’ ‘Who is she?’ ‘Does she teach?’ ‘Is she mated to anyone?’ Bla bla bla” she listed
“ and how did you respond?” Your looks curiously
“Oh just answering what he asked ‘her name is Y/n’ ‘she’s my big sister’ ‘she does but not diving’ bla bla bla again” she continues, extremely dedicated to the topic of the conversation.
Seeing that you didn’t respond. She quickly explained “come on! You out of all people should understand! He clearly take an interest to you!”
“Oh don’t be silly, small down or mother and father will hear!” You can only giggle at her statement
“Then see for yourself! Come with us to our training ground tomorrow. I bet his eyes will probably be glued to you” she dares you
“I have a lot to do, you know how mother and father expects a lot from me” you sighs
“Plus you, Roxto and Ao’nung is more than enough to teach them all” you claimed
“Pretty pretty pleaseeeeeeee” she begs exaggerating
“If you don’t come then Ao’nung won’t stop bullying them!” She said reaching out for an excuse that definitely make you come
“He bullies them?”
“Uhmm… yes!” This is her only ticket for you to come. And she isn’t letting it go even if all hell breaks
“Alright, I will come” You might be able to see but you never really heard what they talk about when training. Being there will definitely keep Ao’nung’s rude mouth away.
Tsireya was excited with the news. Pounced on you, hugging tightly. “Oh sister thank you thank you thank you!!!!” She squeals like a little girl getting confessed to by her crush.
“I’ll go help mother!” She suddenly says.
“Come home soon!”
Yes you have your own marui, filled with herbs and scrolls of history, healing and all kinds of Tsahik training stuff. Your parents really do expects a lot from you
__________________________________________
“Mother” you gesture to her as you walk in. Helping your mother prepare for dinner
“I see you have finished your training”
“Ān’pei will be eating with us today, come help me prepare”
Ān’pei. A boy in a village. In short, if Neteyam were a metkayina, he would be Ān’pei. A fine warrior, a great hunter, and had trained all his life for the title Olo’eyktan of the reef village.
Desired by many fine girls. Can say he is quite the eye catcher. Handsome, even you say.
‘He is a perfect future cheif’ your father said in past conversations, trying to pick up the idea of you being mated to him. But you could only play dumb with this.
Silence filled the air as you chop down some fruits. Tsireya was there before. She leans over whispering into your ear.
“Mom and dad invited Ān’pei over for an arranged-“
“Y/n, Ān’pei’s family will come over tonight” your mother interrupted
“We have decided what will be best for you” she continues before breathing in harshly
“You are to be mated. Eywa had spoken. Your pair will bloom for the clan’s future” she lied.
You simply nodded, though heart pounding out of your rib cage
Eywa had not spoken about you and Ān’pei. But your mother was stubborn. She thought she knew the way for your clan. She reaches her hands out calling your near her
You came, crouching down to sit next to her. Silently waiting.
Her hands then pet your hair, turning your head towards her.
“My sweet sweet girl, you are destined to meet your perfect happy ending” she smiles warmly at you
“You’ve made both your father and I, the village, proud” her hand slide down from your hair to your back, patting softly at your warm skin.
Your face was cold. No emotions were shown. Came back to the activity you were doing earlier.
Tsireya looks up at you. Her happy grin and big excited eyes are no longer there, replaced with a worry expression.
She whispers
“As you alright with this? With Ān’pei?” She pokes her head in, finding your face just to find nothing.
You were scared, horrified and filled with rage to be betrothed with another. You said nothing. Keeping those emotions down like you did hundreds of times.
“It is for the future of our clan” you said in a calm tone. You were scared if your heart was beating so hard Tsireya could hear it.
“And Eywa had spoken, we are to be mated” you said sternly
Tsireya could only listen. Her head filled with sadness for you. Her sister to be betrothed to a boy she never loved.
__________________________________________
Ān’pei seems happy with your parents and his decision.
He sat next to you at the dinner. Your skin slightly touches once in a while when moves his arms.
Tapping your thigh to get your attention.
He whisperers in your ear
“You look gorgeous in that headpiece” trying to set the mood with you while your parents chat with each other
You simply give him a smile. ‘Thank you’
Oh the boy didn’t get it. He thought you were so flustered your couldn’t look at him straight in the eye. He thought you were just shy after he complemented your headpiece.
He smile dearly at you. Your headpiece was like your mothers but rather a smaller shell decorated with stringed pearls
He took a flower placing it on your hair, tucking it behind your airs.
“But you look definitely better with just you” he said.
(Oh Eywa save me from his dumb flirts) you thought
“Oh Ān’pei, you’re too kind” you replied. You see his pleased victorious face when you finally aid his name in such a sweet tone.
“Y/n?” He says
“Yes?” You force your sweetest smile to him
“Y/n..?” He repeats
This time you face him, mouth bend to a smile, forcing it all down.
“A pretty name”
“For a beautiful girl” he turns winking at you with a playful grin.
“Oh dear please Ān’pei” you turn away, one hand covering your mouth.
God you wanna punch him so bad.
If only had your parents knew how much staring he does when you are near.
He had always admire you from afar. If your father knew how he was staring at you whenever he catches a glimps of your practicing in your marui, his title as being the perfect suiter for you would be ruined.
Lucky him it never happened.
Ao’nung and Tsireya could only cringes at your suiter trying moves on you.
The dinner ended with your family having a shit ton of presents. And Ān’pei being your “future mate” took your hands and kissed it before his family leaves.
“Till we meet again, my syulang”
You could only fake the smile and blush as you let him do that to you.
Your parents smile at his gestures. They were more than pleased to see him so in love with you.
__________________________________________
“Sister! You can’t just let them do this to you!” Tsireya plead as she walk in circles around your marui the next day.
“You don’t love him now do you?” She asks already knowing the answer
You could only let out a long sigh before continuing to grind your herbs into a paste. Before slowly shaking your head no
“But I’ll learn to love him” you let out
“This is for the future of our people” you finally look up at her
“Please sister, consider it!” She pleaded again
“I cannot bear seeing you suffer! Betrothed to another that you don’t see!” Voice now sound more and more worried
“It’ll be alright” you sighed out, standing up
“About that training with the Sullies, come on now, we don’t want to be late do we” you said leaving your marui, distracting the topic of the last conversation
Tsireya quickly followed behind
“Sister please don’t do this to yourself!”
“Enough Tsireya”
You turn, holding her hands in yours
“Tsireya, it will be fine” flashing her a a reassuring smile.
“I suppose..”
“Now, the sullies training, lead me to them” you said
Tsireya could only take in your words. Leading you to their training ground
“Tsireya” Roxto turns around greeting her before seeing you
“Y/n!” He says surprised you were here. Your name was an alarm for Ao’nung. His sister is here
Quickly turning around to meet your eyes.
“Sister..” he says, quickly greeting you.
Catching the attention of the sullies. Neteyam was the quickest to catch on. It’s you. Finally being able to present himself properly.
Quickly standing up making it towards you.
A formal greeting
“Neteyam Sully” he introduced nervously at your noble aura
“Y/n” you noded to his greeting
“Get on with the training, I am to join too” you glared Ao’nung. He gulped under you angry eyes
Times goes on.
Breathing training. Swimming. Ilu riding. Now back at breathing training to relax after tense activities
“You must breath from here, your lungs can only take in so much” you explained to Neteyam. But no matter how hard you tried, he just couldn’t get it.
“Your heart is beating too fast, you must slow down” you said, a light tap on his chest.
“yes…” he says quietly, breath hitched at your touch.
“No no, that’s not it, neteyam” you brows begin to bend
Shit that’s not good. He didn’t mean to give you a unprofessional impression
“Alright, let’s try again” you breath out and in, tapping his shoulder to copy your breath.
He did. He tried. But failed again. Too busy staring at your beauty. How could he focus. When you, the girl he has been pining since the day he came to the weird lands, is now infront of him, teaching him about the ways of her clan.
“Neteyam” how could he focus when a girl he likes is teaching him how to stay underwater longer.
“Neteyam” how could he focus when a beauty of a girl is infront of him, explaining everything he needs to adapt
“Neteyam!” He snaps out
“Huh?” He looks up to your worried gaze.
“ I know slowing down your breath is good but stopping it isn’t what I want to teach you”
“Oh sorry” he says pressing his lips into a thin line. Breathing in harshly through his nose before letting out a sigh.
“Now what’s a matter that make you like this? Tsireya said you were catching up faster than any of you siblings” you asked
Oh to him, you are so innocent.
Fluttering your lashes, with your big teal eyes looking at him, searching for an answer to your question
“Oh no no I was just um” he paused thinking for a moment. There is no way he’ll just say ‘because you’re beautiful and I cannot focus when such beauty is catching my eyes’. Hands rubbing his chin, thinking deeply for a reasonable lie.
“Cause I miss my home so much, yeah! Oh I miss it so much” he claimed loudly
He felt everyone’s eyes on him. Roxto and Lo’ak was giving each other’s looks, Tsireya was looking amused, Ao’nung was quite confused and Kiri and Tuk was giggling at him.
“Oh well then I guess I understand” you said sitting back to your spot. Neteyam cleared his throat, sitting back up, straighten his posture.
“It’s not easy leaving your home, a place you grew up” you said, trying to comfort him. “I would be sad too, leaving the people, the friends, the family.. all those makes home so dearing to our heart” putting a hand on his shoulder
“I hope you can make Awata’lu your home too” a smile to reassure him.
Only if you knew what on earth of a thought he had going through his head as you comfort him.
He felt a guilty relief. Lying to you was hard, but not telling you the true reason to creep you out was worth the lying. Plus your smile was a damn good memory to pin in his head
“Thank you..” he said
“Ooooooooo” Lo’ak chimed in. “Somebody got a cru-“ a smack from Neteyam ended his teasing.
“Come on get back to training people we have a lot to finish” Roxto distract the whole group back into what they were doing.
Shooting Lo’ak and Ao’nung a smirk
Which Ao’nung only reply with a frown. He didn’t want his sister to fall for a freak, but he doesn’t want her to learn to love a boy she never see. Conflicted was ao’nung feeling
__________________________________________
“May I walk you home?”
The training was done. Everyone went home.
Neteyam came up to you, panting slightly as he ask
“May I walk you home?” He asked, tails swaying around
“If anything I would be the one walking you home” you joked, smiling at the boy.
“Oh no, I remember my way actually” he proudly said
“Then it would be nice thank you” you said walking away
.
It was silent, but a comfortable silence. You didn’t talk, just walk each other home, enjoy the company.
Reached your family marui, he turns to you
“It was nice training with you” he says, trying his best to not shy way from your gaze.
“It was fun too, meet you again tomorrow” you said nodding your head before entering your marui.
“Yeah! Nice to meet you too! Y/n, I mean see you again tomorrow-“ he said, stuttering. Well at least he earned a giggle from you.
He sighs before walking home, great pride he made you giggle
.
“Who was that?” Your mother ask with a stern voice
“Neteyam Sully mother, he asked to walk me home” you explained
“Well as long as he doesn’t do any funny business then I’ll be alright, remember, Ān’pei will be expecting you to be his soon” you mother reminded
“Yes mother”
“Good, now why not help me prepare the medicine for the hunters, Ān’pei got a nasty cut on his arm today, insisted to seek you to heal” she giggles “oh I never thought you could get a boy so in love” nudging you
You can only smile at the news. God that was awful
__________________________________________
“God that was amazing” neteyam muttered to himself as he walked into his marui
You can say his training failed successfully
Neytiri look up at him with an amused look
“How was today’s training neteyam?”
“Oh ma you have no idea how flustered he was when he was near-“ Lo’ak jumped in the marui and was immediately shut up by Neteyam’s hand
“It was great, we learnt a lot! Ma do you need help for dinner, I can help” he shoves it.
“Shut up” a threatening whisper to Lo’ak before letting his hand go and helping neytiri
“Um alright” Both Jake and Neytiri gave each other a look before getting their head back to what they were doing.
.
“I’m telling you bro, the coral I saw under that leaf in the water today, it looked really nice” Lo’ak says, telling Neteyam about the beauty of the sea when he got to ride an ilu with Tsireya
“I saw and I was like wow- and and- Bro? Are you even listening?”
Lo’ak stopped, tilting his head searching for his brother’s face, waiting for an answer
All he found was a day dreaming boy who eye lids were half open, mumbling, humming to a unfamiliar song
“Oh yes yes, continue” Neteyam says not even paying a half the attention his word said he give.
“Bro? Bro?” Lo’ak asked again
Neteyam just continued his humming, while braiding a necklace for a someone special
“Hey!” Lo’ak finally yelled
“What? What were you saying?” Neteyam finally snapped his head to his brother
“Oh forget it, your mind is not on my story” Lo’ak giggled
“Oh you’re thinking about somebody with long lashes and that sweet perfume” he joked
“Oh stop it, Lo’ak” he frowned turning his head back to the necklace.
His mother overheard this, sending a look to Jake as the two brothers speak. Understanding her point, the parents had their ears fully invested into this conversation
“Come on you can’t get your mind off of her, at least admit it”
“Shhhhhh Lo’ak!”
“What? did I hit a jackpot?”
“Oh shut it bro” Neteyam sighed, a bit of a laugh was put in
“Can’t blame ya! She is a beauty, a fine teacher, a grand healer, not to mention the cheif’s perfect daughter” Lo’ak said, giggling at his love stuck brother
“Where did all those big words come from baby bro? Did Tsireya taught you those?” Neteyam teased back, pressing on Lo’ak’a crush’s name.
“Oh come on it’s supposed to be about you and your perfect princess!” Lo’ak exclaimed.
“Haha very funny til it flipped on you and your love bird”
‘Cheif’s daughter? Tsireya? Aren’t those the girls who are to teach the boys the way of water?
Neytiri brow raised, hitting Jake with a curious look. Answered back with a nervous face of her mate.
“Y/n ah a name sweet to the sound” Lo’ak teased his brother, head barging into neteyam’s personal space
“Ahhh yes, a pretty name for a beautiful girl…. Oh y/n y/n” neteyam mumbled to himself
“I’ll wait for the day her full name is Y/n Sully,hum?” He joked his brother but his head pushed away
Neteyam would be lying if he said he didn’t like the topic of you being with him, having his brother hype him up about having a chance with you. But his ego was in the way. There is no way he’d let his brother joke him about his enormous crush that way
“Oh cut it out Lo’ak, I could say the same for you and Tsireya” he pointed out
“Following each other, joking, holding hands like you are already a couple. What ?the next day I see you two courting each other? Oh wait you already did” he said, pushing Lo’ak shoulders which the boy only respond with a deep blush
“Come on baby bro, time to get some sleep ey?”
“Yeah yeah”
“Have fun dreaming about your y/n-“
“Lo’ak!”
Y’all don’t judge me if there are like grammar or vocabulary mistakes, cringy moments. I’m still working on my writing hope you like it though
CHEIF’S DAUGHTER
Pt.3
Neteyam x f!metkayina!reader
Warning: maybe there aren’t any?
Idk tell me
__________________________________________
Weeks had gone by since sullies came
You have gotten closer and closer to the sisters . Tuk was a cute little energy ball, you took her under your care as if you’re her mother. Kiri was a great friend, you sometimes gossip with her and Tsireya about random annoying stuffs around your clans, laughing about how dumb the boys can be, how unreal the expectations the elders set. You definitely enjoy your time with them. Yeah you like those times
You definitely love them.
Right now is not really the time to think of those.
“Father..” you said in a small tone walking up to him. His back facing you, covering the scene.
“Y/n..” he says quietly. Waiting for you to finally take in what’s in front of him
He knows you’ll act exactly like your mother in these kind of situations. Soft as clouds when needed but then hard as a boulder when there’s something that needs professional care, especially fights of any conflict. Though you’re more understanding than your mother, something you got from your father.
There stood Neteyam with a split lip, small bruises spotted over, his brother, Lo’ak with bruises all over his body and your idiot brother with a ginormous bruise on his left cheek and chin, his other friends are also in the same messed up condition
Once their eyes spot you, all their head left hanging down, hair covering their scared face.
Oh shit you frowned
………………………………………………………………………….
“What is the meaning of this Ao’nung?!” You said furiously at your brother for his stupid actions. Pulling his ear down and setting him down in your marui. Followed along by some of his dumb friends.
“But sister! They have five fingers! They are not one of us-“ he was cut of by a groan. You pressed the healing paste harder on his bruised cheek. “Five, nine or whatever, that does not matter! They did no harm to us!” You said harshly
From what you were told, Ao’nung and his friends decided it was fun to pick on Kiri, thought it was cool until Neteyam and Lo’ak kicked their butts.
“When will you ever learn that your actions have consequences!” You said with an annoyed tone of voice.
Your mother knows where to send Ao’nung to when he does something stupid.
Ship him right to his big sister who scolds him ten times worse than his mother. And ten times longer to finish.
“But sister!-“
“There is no buts!”
You said harshly finishing his healing.
“On your knees now!” You demanded
Both him and his friends passed each others looks, confused
“Sit down!” You said harsher and louder making them flinch
Sitting down immediately not wanting to upset you any further
“Do you any idea what you have all done? Not only going against the Olo’eyktan’s words! But also hurt them!” You paused
“I can’t believe the amount of times I have to take care of you and your dumbass friends who can’t be normal for 2 days! You know how busy I am! Making me take care of your foolish actions are not helping!”
“But-“
“I said no buts!” Grinding the paste harder
“As the second oldest son of the Awata’lu village’s Olo’eyktan! I expect you to start acting more mature! You are 15, Ao! You can just run around the village making a mess while mother and father were busy doing their works!”
At this point they can all hear the hard rock clashing against the hard bowl you use to grind, hoping that it won’t broke
“A little sisterly advice, if you weren’t always trying to wreck too hard you wouldn’t be in the way”
“Actually Y/n! This is called helping! And I’m not in the way you ar-“
Before Ao’nung could get any words in, you quickly put out a hand stopping making him pulse his lips in a straight line.
“You do not have a say in this after what all of you have done! Why do you care so much about how Kiri and Lo’ak has five fingers instead of four? At this point I’m pretty damn glad Lo’ak showed you what he can do with his extra finger!”
All their mouths are zipped shut, hands clenched dip, fingers digging into the palm of their hands as they pray to Eywa you were finished
You can only sigh at this
As much as you despise your brother’s stupid actions, you loved him more
“I will have mercy” you said
They all look up to meet your tired face
“But you all! Go apologize this instant!” You said loudly making all of them dip their head down
“And if I ever hear you making those stupid actions ever again! I will shove my spear so far up your ass you’ll never see the light of day ag-“
“I’m sorry to interrupt but I was told to come here to get patched up?”
Neteyam came in, lifting up the curtains. Stopping at midway, taking in the odd scene in front of him
“Um should I come in?”
“Yes, come in, take a seat, I’ll be right with you”
You shoot a glare at your brother and his friends.
“Go. Make it up to them. I will help with Neteyam” you said shooing them away
Quickly on their feet as they run out of your marui
Neteyam gulped as he feels your eyes on him.
“Come” your hand reaches out, then gently patting on the matted seat
He awkwardly walk towards you as he take in the decorations around your marui
It definitely gives of a cozy vibe but something just doesn’t seem right
Jars and bowls filled to the brim with herb leaves, tall bottles of medicines and serums, vines of berries and spices clinging on the marui’s tilting ceiling. The smell of herbs and medicine linger around.
His observation got cut off the moment your fingers touched his skin.
His glaze slowly turns to your smaller figure next to him
You were so close
So so close
Wait hell nawh so close he can feel the warmth radiating from your skin
He never minded when getting patched up by any of the healers except his grandma back in his clan
But you got him absolutely dumbfounded
Gently rubbing the paste on his bruises, your eyes were so concentrated, you didn’t even notice how his big yellow eyes were staring at your face
“I’m sorry for what my brother did to your sister” you said quietly
“Despite his age, his mind is still that of a child’s” bending over to apply a small amount of paste on his lips
Sighing heavily you finally looked up into his long waiting eyes
If fucking flustered wasn’t the words to describe how Neteyam is feeling right now I don’t know what else to put
“You’re done, you’re free to go out”
Bending up you walked back to your table, placing the bowl on the other side while starting to clean up the herbs
“It’s ok, my brother can be an idiot too” he answered with a big smile
“Bet he’s more mature than Ao’nung, that idiot can even go 2 days without messing something up”
If any chance this would be it, he wanted to talk to you since the day he came, but just couldn’t find a way or a topic that would make the conversation between you two last longer.
For once is he thankful for having a troublesome brother
“Nope, he’s always dragging Kiri and Tuk and Spider into danger” he says, voice full of annoyance
“Spe-der?”
You repeated one of the names he mentioned. No it doesn’t sound like a navi name to you
“Spiii-derr” he corrects you, slowing down his voice for easier understanding
“What a strange name?” You asked him, face confused
“Yeah he’s a human who plays with us” he explained but your face is still scrunched up with confusion
“Oh wait um yeah, we call them sky demons?-“ he corrected himself then quickly add in for the judgy face you gave
“He’s nice actually! He learnt our ways and our language! He even defended us!” He says calming you down
“Sky demons… harm or not they should never fully trust him” you frowned, voice before gentle and soothing as a mother’s lullaby now a voice that stabs venom
This surely isn’t the way he wanted his only chance to go. Might as well write a farewell letter for it cause it was just ruined for him mentioning a human friend’s name while in war with them. That’s no way to court and Navi girl.
The tension in the room now is tensed, your face features went stoic for the sensitive topic, his face littered with nervousness.
He looked around the room trying to find another chance to talk to you, to hear your gentle motherly voice again
“Soooooo…” he says
“What’s with these flowers?” He asked poking at one what was next to him
“Do you not like them?”
“No no! I really do love them! They’re are all very pretty but I was just wondering why there’s so many” he says looking up to the ceilings and around the room. Noted that flowers can be found almost anywhere
“I just thought it was a good was to lighten up the marui’s atmosphere” you said sighing
“But I do like to think each of them holds a different story, much like our song cords ..” you said looking up at one
“Then what story does this one holds?” He asked pointing at the one next to him
“It was for Tsireya’s 8th birthday” you smiled at the flower
“What about this one?” He asked now pointing at the one near the entrance
“Me and my mother planted it on Tsireya’s birth ceremony” you explained
“How about that one?”
“It was when Ao’nung started his hunt training, I had to instruct him”
“That one?”
“When I marked my first Tsahik training”
“And that one?”
“My first and forever Tsurak”
“You have a tsurak!?” He asked with an impressed voice.
“Yes, it was a gifted training after I perfect the basic healing of the Tsahik training” you smiled proudly
“Damn you’re skilled” he claimed happily
Looking around for a bit he noticed one that was yet to bloom
“Why hasn’t that one bloom?” He asked pointing at the flower near your table
“My mother said it’ll bloom once I find something I have been missing, Tsireya’s one has bloomed yet mine still doesn’t no matter how careful I raise it” you explained to him
“Maybe one day it’ll bloom”
“Yeah one day…”
You both stared at it for a while before deciding to head for dinner
Today was a fiesta
The whole village gather in the community marui, the sullies was invited
Well for you know who, Än’pei is actually gonna propose today
“With Än’pei and Y/n together, our village will bloom with success” your father announces, giving a speech once everyone was seated
Your of course was next to Än’pei
He wiggle his brows at you “you look stunning my syulang” he says staring at you with love stuck eyes
“Yes thank you, Än’pei”
“I notice you don’t give me any pet names.. why is that my love?” He asked swirling parts of your hair strains with his finger
“Well…um” you looked sideways and back at him, trying to find an excuse
“I um much prefer your name Än’pei, it speaks only you” you force a smile on your face, face muscles already tired from all the forcing
“Tonight we salut to our new Olo’eyktan and Tsahik! Än’pei and Y/n!” You father happily announced loudly as the whole clans cheered
Everyone started eating, talking, singing, kids run around playing with each other while your father chat along with Än’pei’s father
Though not everyone
Neteyam is confused and flustered, angry even. Seeing how you act with Än’pei, he knew you have no interest in Än’pei, yet that dumbass is so blind about you opinion on this marriage.
Tsireya was eye wide, biting her nails, what seem like her brushyher hair with her fingers was actually her pulling her hair, absolutely sweating. She’s such a nervous wreck right now. You can even see her mumbling prayers to Eywa that something can stop this. Her eyes wide, even if her sweat drops spilled down to her eyes she wouldn’t even bother blinking, eyes drained on you and your so called lover
Roxto was just as worried, patting Tsireya’s back as her prayers begin to become louder and louder then to be shut down again by Roxto
Kiri and Tuk just sat there staring at you and your nervous form. Face filled with worries seeing how Tsireya is reacting to this fiesta.
“Um Tsireya? Are you alright?”
“Yeah! I’m totally FINE!” She says gritting her teeth together to make that sentence come out less aggressive
Än’pei’s father came up behind him as he gets nudged by his dad. Nodding at his father’s gestures.
He stood up clearing his throat, catching everyone’s attention before announcing anything
Everyone attention quickly turned to the two of you as Än’pei begins his proposal
“Y/n… the most graceful of all Metkayina”
Tsireya’s prayer were heard louder, Än’pei turned his attention to her as he was confused
Tsireya was quickly smacked by Roxto in the back to stop her loud praying, now praying harder in her mind
“You’ve doing great!” Roxto gives him a thumbs up for him to get on with his proposal
“Um ok…” he turned back to you as he holds you hand
“The most perfect flower in this entire ocean..”
Tsireya’s prays we’re heard again, Roxto biting his nails, neteyam’s eyes were wide staring, Tuk and Kiri were holding each other’s hands, sweat is clearly seen on their face
Your force smile isn’t that unnoticeable anymore as Än’pei continues on his proposal not a single sign on his face makes you think that he see that you hate this
“Will you, ma Y/n.. marry m-“
“Ao’nung?..”
“What? No y/n it’s Än’pei-“ he looks up at you to see you looking at your brother lowering his head in guilt
Someone in the crowed asked where Lo’ak is and now the proposal is ruined.
Tsireya’s prayers were finally heard, she passes out, ended up banging her head on the table because of her 30 minutes of endless speed up aggressively praying to Eywa for something to pause this proposal, nails biting, hair pulling, body shaking and extreme sweat
Än’pei stood up, looking at Ao’nung, confused why he crashed his proposal.
“Ao’nung….” Walking over as he hang his head low, not meeting your concern stare
“Ao’nung where’s Lo’ak?” You hurriedly asked, hands on his shoulder lightly shaking him while tilting your head down, trying to find his face
“I-“
“You what Ao’nung!” Your brows begin to bend, thoughts ran through your mind
“Left him beyond the reef…”
His voice small only for you to hear
Gasping as you let your hands go from his shoulders, looking at him as if he’s some stranger
“Sister please don’t look at me like that- I-“
“What’s going on?” Neteyam asked as he puts a hand on your shoulder, your back against his chest
He looked down at your worried face
“I cannot believe you!” You turned to your father , face flustered and angried
Neteyam shared looks with Ao’nung before demanding an explanation
.
.
.
“The boy has been found”
One of the members of the search party said as he carried Lo’ak back near the shore
“The boy is fine, only a few scratches” Jake said after examining his second eldest son
“I pray to Eywa for the strength to not pluck out the wye of my second eldest son” Neytiri claimed gesturing a grouching motion to Lo’ak eye
You stood next to your father as your heart beat with shame
“This is my son’s fault, he should have known better” your father said , grabbing Ao’nung’s nape and pushing him down to his knee
“No it’s my fault I tried to talk Ao’nung out of it!” The young boy claimed
You furrowed your eyes with confusion, looking at your brother than at Lo’ak.
“That’s enough Lo’ak” Jake said pulling him away
.
.
“Go apologize to your sister! You’ve crashed her proposal!” Ronal demanded, harsh tone leaving her throat as she banged her hand on the table
“Go boy, come back until you make peace” Tonowari said pushing Ao’nung away
It has been 2 days since the ruined proposal, and yet his sister still hasn’t talk to him.
This time he flopped bad, the only thing you’ve ever done to him when he does something stupid was to patch him up and give him a long lecture. Now you wouldn’t even talk to him. It’s starting to make him think you really wanted to marry that dumb boy
Walking up to your marui, he takes a deep breath before coming in
“Y/n? Heyyyyyy?” He asks making his appearance known in the dark marui
“I know we have had our issues, and problems, and I feel really bad for crashing your proposal but I’m ready for what it takes to be a better brother!” He claimed loudly as he doesn’t see your figure anywhere in the marui
Starting to think he should leave, he turned his heels, bout to walk out
“Better brother?” You asked, repeating what he said in his apology
“Lo’ak was found scratched and left beyond the reef..” slowly walking out of the shadow of your marui
“Än’pei had to re-propose and Tsireya passed out!” Now standing in the middle of your marui
“You want to be a better brother? Apologize for what you did!” You said irritated by Ao’nung annoyed face
He stays silent
“Go on.. apologize” you reminded him
“ I- I am sorr-ry” he said moving his mouth in an uncomfortable position to say it
Smiling at his defeated face, this might be the first time you’ve ever felt great lecturing your brother
“That your life is SOOOO GREAT-“
“Out” you said turning away
“I wasn’t trying to ruin your life!” He yelled
Seeing that you’re not listening
“Some of us has bigger problems! You selfish entitled PRINCESS!“
The only thing escaped your mouth was a gasp
“Selfish!?” Your damn right angry. You know you have never been selfish in your life, others even say you’re selfless.
“ I have been STUCK! being PERFECT! My whole entire life and LITERALLY the only thing you have ever done to me is MESS IT UP!”
“Everything IS perfect! You can still marry that big dumb hunk!”
“I NEVER WANTED TO MARRY HIM! I WAS DOING IT FOR THE VILLAGE!”
“…”
“…”
“Sister..”
“Don’t even. Get out.”
You said walking back to your table, setting down while preparing your Tsahik training again
“I’m sorry..”
He said then walking out.
Your back feels heavy, your breath feels heavy, your head hurts, your whole body aches.
“What have I done…”
.
.
.
“Please mother I’m telling you! You can’t force her to love someone she has no interest in!” Ao’nung begs his mother
“Nonsense Ao’nung! She loves him! Eywa had already spoken! Their are a matching made in heaven!” She says, batting her son away
“But mother can’t you see! She has no interest! I had gone and asked the great mother! She said nothing of Än’pei and Y/n!” He argued
It was last night when he visited the ancestors cove to ask for you and Än’pei. Eywa said no such thing. Instead it was Neteyam and You. A small family, but then everything goes black to appear with sky demons.
His mother lied to the whole clan. You and Än’pei wouldn’t lead to anything nor any where.
It was just a bluff since she was the Tsahik, no one dared to question her predictions.
“You visited the cove?!” She asked voice filled with panic
“I did! And it’s not Än’pei and Y/n! It’s ughhhh-“
He hate saying it, any na’vi have a mate, but why does his sister has to fall in love with a half blooded demon.
“It’s one of the Sullies!” He spit it out
“You’ve the one who’s going against Eywa’s will!” He pointed his mother. Her face now burning with anger
“Nonsense! Boy go fix yourself! I cannot believe I have a son like you! You dare ruin this family again I will kick you out of clan!” She said loudly, slamming her fists down to the table, making the jars of herbs and stacks of scrolls tumbles.
“Fine!” He said walking out of the marui, stomping his feet
He cannot believe it, cannot believe that his mother wanted to force her daughter to be married to someone she doesn’t love, cannot believe that she would threaten to kick him out of the clan for stopping such a bullshit accuse of a marriage.
.
.
.
It has been 5 days since the ruined fiesta
“You must practice your breathing every day, even now” you said to neteyam
“Wake up and practice your breathing, that’s the only way you’ll ever get better”
Uhhum” Neteyam hums in response
“It was only a small test” you chuckled in response
“You can breath but not so efficiently” you touch his stomach
“Gotta practice to do that now hum?”
“Alright alright”
Neteyam haven’t left your side since the day the fiesta was ruined. He was there for you, comforting and helping you. Messing wit you sometimes to make you laugh, getting you distracted from all those expectations you had to require.
It was comforting to have him by, your heart felt warm and your body feels light everytime he’s near. So much so that you had to force down a big urge to jump on him and give him a big bear hug everytime you see him.
He really does make you happy
A big horn blown rang through both your ears.
Your face change quick. A big smile plastered on your face. The hair on your nape stood up in excitement.
“My sister!” You told Neteyam
“Come! I want to show you my spirit sister!”
You said stood up fast before calling out for an ilu
“Everyone! Our brothers and sister have returned!”
Neteyam chuckled. He adored the way you can look like a child being returned to their parents after a daycare. He adored the way you know when to act modest and formal, and when to actually have fun. Your eyes were filled with hope and anticipation.
“Hop on forest boy” you called for him already on your ilu
Many other villagers are already jumping into the water. But you have to take an ilu for Äeïn’lei’s special conditions.
“What’s this all about?” He said smiling at you
“The tulkuns have returned, so has my spirit sister, Äeïn’lei!” You turned to him
“I want you to meet her” you explain hurriedly to him
“I’m down for new frien-AH-“ he couldn’t finish and you have already duck down with your ilu. His one hand grabbed on your waist while the other grabbed on your thigh to secure. Slightly open his eyes as you come closer to the scene.
Navis, tulkuns, ilus, tsuraks,etc all playing around with each other. Talking to each other about their family, work, snickering secrets
You tapped him on the shoulder signing him to look at what you’re pointing at. he looks over to see a big tulkun, slowly turning to you guys
‘That’s Äeïn’lei!’ You signed him, disconnecting your queue with the ilu’s.
You swam closer to her, greeting her
You and Äeïn’lei Isn’t actually the same age. She older than you, at small, she’s like a bigger sister you (other than Tsireya), or like a mother to you.
To your surprise, Äeïn’lei lifted up her fin to reveal a calf. Her baby. You smile at her.
‘Your baby is beautiful, Äeïn’lei’ tilting your head with a big smile.
‘Thank you, I’ve waited many seasons for have him’
‘And waited much longer for a mate’ she let out a sound similar to remind you to find a mate.
Not this time you’ll be ughed by her
‘Actually, dear sister’ you signed, pausing a little
Your face muscles ache trying to keep down the big smile
‘I met a boy’ you finished dots glowing
Her eyes lifted in a pleases manner.
Neteyam saw how your conversation was going. His freckles glow at the thought of you mentioning a boy then looking at him
She eyes down Neteyam from a far, making you look at her direction. Both your eyes were on Neteyam making him nervous
If you can sweat underwater he would be sweating so much right now.
You smile at him, waving at him to come meet your sister.
He swims closer to you. One arm rested on your hip, pulling you in to him. Greeting her.
‘So a forest boy?’ She let out a sound echoing in the water
‘Yes, his name is Neteyam’ you signed her tilting your head towards him
‘Hello’ he signs to her
She seems pleased, waved her fin up, bringing you to break the water surface then slapping back down.
‘Grab on’ she signs before reaching out her for you to grab as she glides through the rough water. Her calf quickly swims right under her.
You and neteyam quickly grab on as she glided through
He saw everything. The beauty of the ocean, the beauty of love and you.
You look so beautiful smiling
I'm supposed to be sleeping, but I was thinking about how the Sully kids know to be gentle with Spider. They grew up around humans. They know how different their bodies are, even if Spider is as Navi as a human can get. They rough house as kids and stuff, and even mess around as they're older, but they know not to use their full strength.
But the Metkayina don't. They've never been around sky people, at least not close. They're smaller sure, but so are many other creatures, and they're all pretty strong. They wouldn't know to be careful, to hold back their carbon-fiber-bones strength.
So Spider is adapting to reef life with the Sully's. He wins them over, just like Lo'ak did and becomes friends with the group of them. Imagine he's standing around with everyone, joking and having a good time. He says something funny and everyone laughs, even Aonung. And then imagine Aonung pats him on the back affectionately while he's laughing and Spider just flies face first into the sand.
