OPEROSE | Neteyam X Reader (18+)

CH9 Divergent

"Talk to me, Y/N." Doctora Jane tells me before taking the bagel I was eating out of my hand. "It's been an hour since we took you back and you still haven't told us anything." 

"Yeah, yeah. After I eat." I reply, trying to take the food back but she only throws it in the trash.

I gasp as I look down into the bin, seeing my favorite treat wasted. "Old lady, I'm seriously going to kill you."

"In 10 minutes, I want you in my office." She sternly said, leaving me alone in the food court.

Out of the blue, the doctor woke my human body that was stationed at hell's gate in order to get information out of me from my week of stay with the Na'vi's. As she said, it's been an hour since and all I really thought of doing was eat food that's not an insect. And I don't really know how much longer they'll keep me here before linking me back to my Avatar body, but I'll just take the time to do things I can't do during my mission- like eating proper food.

"So. What's up?" I say as a greeting to Doctora Jane and Colonel Quaritch upon entering the room, a new bagel at hand. 

"That's what we should be asking you. Give us the intel, Operative Rose." The colonel says, sitting comfortably on one of the guest chairs just right beside the one the doctor's sitting on.

"I, uh. Don't really have any." I lightly scratch the back of my neck.

"Excuse me? What?" Doctora Jane furrows her brows.

"I didn't really get mixed up much with the military since they don't trust me. That's why I have nothing to give you." I aloofly reply. "But I do have one thing."

The two adults raise their brows in question.

"Neteyam- the uh, traitor's eldest kid- I've managed to get close to him. Though, I'm not sure how much it'll benefit us." I add.

As if in queue, the two looks at one another before standing up, interest apparent on their faces.

"Is this the Jake and Neytiri type of close?" Colonel Quaritch asks, walking a bit closer to me.

If you don't know anything about the guy, you would normally think that it's just a simple yes or no question. But at this time, he wasn't just asking. He was threatening me with a baleful stare; a message sending that if I answered wrong, I could put myself in so much trouble.

"I-it depends." I say, averting my eyes from him.

"What do you mean, 'it depends'?" The doctor asks.

Afterward, I vaguely tell them about my situation with Neteyam- the places we went, the arguments we had, and everything else except for the, you know, the thing we did in front of their "Great Mother" Eywa. I even told them about what he said last night, about me having to kill humans, and that specifically seemed to take their attention.
