Mostly Neteyam's pov

The next day Neteyam decided to visit Aonung to see how he was doing and to apologize for running away the other day

Once he got to Aonung's house, Tsireya ran to him panicking

"What is it Tsireya"?

"It's Aonung he's gone"

"Gone what do you mean he's gone"

"he's not in his bed,", mother had yelled at him earlyer and she had said something to Aonung,im not sure what she said but it hurt Aonung pretty bad"

That's when some people came rushing in on their Ilu's running to us frantically,

"Quick it's Aonung"one of them shouted

"Where is he" Neteyam said frantically

"He went out beyond the reef and got attacked,"

Neteyam froze for a moment before shouting

"He went out beyond the reef injured that- ugh"

"Neteyam you have to hurry," Tsireya said

He sighed called his Ilu and hopped on

"Please find my brother"

Neteyam nodded and sped off on his Ilu

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He's never been beyond the reef before but right now he has to save Aonung

He picked up the speed, circling Rocks and log's in the water to make sure Aonung wasn't on one

"Aonung" where are you please if you hear me"

He circled around big stones in the water looking if Aonung was on any

"Aonung" he called again,then he heard a weak "over here"

Neteyam followed where his voice was, deciding that it came from that big rock over on his right

He circled the rock hoping he was on it, he circled it to see Aonung laying on his back with his bottom half in the water,

"Aonung"! he shouted before hopping off his Ilu rushing over to help the boy

He held Aonungs arm, only for Aonung to yelp in pain, he quickly let go apologizing,

He observed Aonung's body to make sure he didn't have any serious injurys, his cuts from before had reopened and he had a couple others on him now, and including the one he had on his stomach had reopened and now it was gushing blood.

Neteyam tried to slow the bleeding by pressing on it, but Aonung yelled at him to stop

"Stop please stop it hurts"

Neteyam looked at Aonung then the blood on his hands, hearing those words and seeing Aonung like this set something off inside him

He felt as if to break down and start crying but he bit his lip and stayed strong for Aonungs sake.

"Neteyam" he heard a weak voice call for him

"Aonung please don't talk"

"Neteyam i want to go home" Aonung said breaking into tears

Neteyam looked at Aonung cry, it truly was the most painful thing he's seen, seeing Aonung cry was just hurting him more than it had to

"Aonung, ill get you home"

"No matter what"
