The wrong star

Strenght

Neytiri and Jake try to keep Neteyam as awake as possible and we sit in a circle around them.

I'm still very worried but at least now his temperature is a little more warm.

I notice Spider outside the pod, but he's hiding, I signal for him to come here but he shakes his head.

I feel for him, I know he thinks of Neteyam as his brother but I also see the slash Neytiri gave him and the way he looks at her and quickly looks away.

"Come on," I mouth and signal for him to sit next to me but he shakes his head and goes away.

Kiri notices it and she gets up to after him. I sigh. Those two...

"Don't you think they should already be here?" Lo'ak asks me.

"I... don't really know how to keep track as they do," I say referring to Mile's watch or however Jake does it. "But I think it's been a while," I say.

Lo'ak only sighs in disappointment and keeps his eyes on Neteyam.

"Hey baby, don't close your eyes. Stay awake please, please, for me," Neytiri says in a soft voice as she takes his hand.

Neteyam murmurs something and Lo'ak purses his mouth. I want to tell him that it's okay to cry, but I think he won't appreciate it.

Jake's brows furrow when Neytiri begs Neteyam once more to please not fall asleep and then we hear it.

"Finally," Jake murmurs.

"I'll take them here, you stay with him," I tell him and I get up.

"Go with her Lo'ak," is Jake's response.

He gets up quickly and we get to the shore.

"What is this? What are these people doing here?" I hear the Tsahik talking, a few warriors at her back and his husband by her side.

"They're friends of us. They're here to help Neteyam," I speak.

The woman snickers at me.

"They've been here before and they weren't able to do anything. I can see I'm once again not appreciated," she says.

Tsireya comes to Lo'ak's side and he tells her something, then she goes after her mom.

"Follow me," I say when I see Norm.

He is not such a stranger, he has always been around with Jake and for celebrations so at least he knows me. There are two other men behind him and they carry big boxes with I don't know what out.

We get to the pod and Jake and Neytiri make room for them.

"Come on Tuk," I say trying to get her to stand up and leave some space for them.

"I don't want to go, I want to be here for my brother," she says.

"We won't go, we just need to make some space for them okay? let's stand on this side," I say taking her hand and dragging her to my side.

Kiri and Spider haven't returned yet but Lo'ak is here, standing with his arms crossed as he watches over everything that they do.

I grow nervous by the moment when I see them remove whatever they were pressing on Neteyam's leg and all I see is blood. The smell so strong that I fear is on me now.

Neteyam screams when they touch the area and clean up whatever the Tsahik had put there first.

"Tuk, maybe we should go outside for a moment," I say.

"No! I'm staying for my brother!" She demands.

"Come here, Tuk," Lo'ak says calling her to his side. She goes there and takes his hand.
