Atwow: Spider's sister

thirteen

y/n pov

We had dragged Neteyam out of the water and onto a rock with the help of Jake. I was out of breathe from the adrenaline and fear radiating through my body.

I was trying to stop the sobs that began to escape between my lips.

Jake turned him over and let out a shaky breathe once he saw the exit wound on Neteyams back. My hand came up to my mouth to pause a cry that was on the verge of breaking free.

Jake then grabbed Loak's hand and held it up against the bullet wound.

"Put pressure on it. Put pressure on it!" Jake said, trying to be calm but failing instantly. A flap of wings caught my attention and I turned around to see Neytiri get off of her Ikran.

She ran towards where we all crowding around, "No no no no," she crouched down beside Loak.

Neteyam was breathing heavily, "I want to go home," he pleaded to his dad.

"I know, I know, we're going" Jake forced out trying not to break down.

Neteyam continued gasping for air as he looked up and around to all of our faces.

"We're going home" Jake whispered once again, almost as if he was saying it to himself.

Neteyams eyes then focused back to his father.

"Dad I-" his eyelids softened and he fell limp.

...

...

Neteyam Sully was dead.

Neytiri's screams went on for a while. Her pleads to the great mother were heartbreaking. I couldn't bare to look at his body. The only thing keeping me sane was thought of someone or me, myself going to kill the colonel with everything I had. I don't care if he is my father or not, he did not raise me and I won't rest until he is 6ft under.

The colonel's voice was heard through Jake's earpiece.

"Can you hear me corporal?" I tensed, a rage so powerful developing inside of me. The colonel continued, "yeah, yeah I think you can. I got your daughters, both of em" I could feel Spider stiff up beside me, "same deal as before. You for them." A long silence fell over the group.

Jake's talking took me out of whatever trance I was in.

"Where are your sisters?" he asked Loak firmly while Neytiri's sobs were still in earshot, "your sisters where are they" he asked again, on the verge of shouting.

"I don't know" Loak whispered, defeated.

"Where are they!"

"They're on the ship" Tsireya suddenly said while tears dripped down her face, "they're tied up on the ship."

Jake let out a shaky sigh, "where on the ship?"

Tsireya was about to say something before Spider cut her off.

"The moonpool."

"What?" Jake questioned.

"It's the centre of the ship," Spider announced before taking Jake's hand, "here, I know where it is, c'mon!"

"I'm coming to," I declared while standing.

"No, no, absolutely not" Spider snapped.

"It's not your decision"

Spider treaded towards me, "I can't lose you as well" he muttered while shaking his head.

"You don't have to" I whispered back, forcing a smile onto my face.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spider, Jake and I took a skimwing to the ship. We hopped off into the water before climbing onto a ramp.

"Stay here" Jake ordered to us both.

Spider and I hid behind a part of the vessel while we watched Jake walk out of sight. Neither of us said anything to each other. The only thing that could be heard was our heavy breaths and the water lapping up against the ship. I grabbed Spider's hand out of shock. He new how much Neteyam's death meant to me, I just never showed it.

All of a sudden, Jake's yell interrupted my train of thought.

"Get down!" he shouted as he jumped behind something while us two teens ducked to the ground just in time before a huge explosion rained over our heads. We both decided that the best idea at the very moment was to move from our position and go find a new one.

We both stuck to the side of the ship near the water so we didn't get caught up in the giant rampage happening in the middle of the craft. We could hear the yells from Jake as he disintegrated any human in his path. I honestly felt scared.

That was until we watched Neytiri come out from behind the shadows and begin slaughtering a guy with a spear. With her eyes wide she let out a shaky wail. She looked murderous.

Me and Spider stayed hidden with a look of pure genuine fear stuck on our faces. Who knew what she could do to us with that much rage.

We both continued walking but suddenly stopped when we saw the colonel holding Kiri with a knife to her throat and Jake clinging onto Tuk's arm as he pushed her behind him.

Spider did not hesitate. He ignored my whispers of warning and jumped out from our hiding spot.
