We were holdings hands,watching the eclipse,our fingers intertwined,our bodies sharing warmth.I felt like my stomach was dancing,I looked at the hand next to mine.
Five fingers. . . ? 

I suddenly woke up to the sound of the door opening,I immediately stood up and make my hands into fist.

«Calm down sweetheart it's just me.»

He turned on the light and raised his hands in a innocent way,I straightened a little.

«Why are you here ? »

«I feel like there's no progress.»

«I know that,sky people don't learn.»

«I want to learn.I want you to teach me,give me extra lessons »

«Now ? »
I asked,confused.He woke me up in the middle of the night cause he wanted to. . . learn ?

«Now.»

We quietly walked outside,he previously gave me my bow,I took a deep breath,feeling the cold air of the night.

He didn't had any guns with him.

«So where do we start ? »

I thought for a bit.
«You're already good a running and climbing...»

He looked at me confused and I started running,he thought I wanted to escape so he started to hunt me down.

«Wait there blue girl ! »

I guess he just like messing around with nicknames.

I ran,trying to see how efficient at hunting a prey he was,until I saw a beautiful view that I already started to miss.
I stopped in my course looking at the hammerhead titanothere and his newborn.
I looked behind me to spot Miles,then he suddenly bumped into me since I stopped without warning.

«You-»
I put my hand on his mouth,shushing him.
He was on top of me,his arms next to my head.
I nodded to him to the Titanothere direction,slowly removing my hand as he sat down,clearing his throat with his tail swinging nervously,I feel like mine is doing the same,for an unknown reason.

«We call them 'angtsik.Life and death are very important for us,life needs to be respected.
We don't mourn death,cause everything is meant to go back to Eywa.»

«Who's Eywa ? »

«She's our goddess,she made everything,she lives in everything.»
I gently caressed the the ground and the moss.
While he nodded.

«You need to feel the forest,you need to see it,to the bottom of your feet feeling the cold ground,to the top of your head feeling the cold wind.»

I gestured it as I stood up,and he did the same.

«Is that why you wear such littles clothes ?»
He asked while his ears started to bend a little,this question definitely just slipped ouf of his mouth.

I started to walk while explaining him our ways.
«We are creatures of Eywa,and we are all the same,there's nothing to hide.
Wearing as much clothes as you only reduce mobility.Eywa's creations are beautiful,we don't hide ourselves.»

We went next to a little river,I sat down in front of it,gently putting my hand in the water,being in peace with myself.
I needed that calm for a while now,and I'll need it during all my captivity.

MILES QUARITCH

I looked at her,she looked so calm,she really loved the forest,the one that I was about to burn to the ground.
Her hand slowly feeling every move of the water,her innocents eyes,scanning everything.

She turned to look a me.
«What ? »

I cleared my throat while looking away.
«Nothing.»

How am I supposed to achieve my mission when I was always distracted by her.
Why do I want to please her ? To always know how she's doing ?
Miles you're doing a big mistake right now. . .

«The sun is about to rise,let's go back before they notice our absence.»
I said as I looked at the sky and started walking back.I'm too weak,she's still the sister of the Na'vi who killed me.The one who killed me. . .
Who am I exactly at the end ?
We walked back to the base,not saying anything on our way back.

Back to the base I went to my room and sat on the bed,reviewing our little walk,and my dream right before.A weird dream if you ask me.
I was sitting,watching the sunset,holding hands with someone whose face I couldn't see.
I could only tell that it was a Na'vi.
I looked at my own hand,I have five fingers,but an unusual blue skin,I guess it was unusual for the old me.

I feel like I'm constantly fighting my own thoughts,who am I ? Who do I want to be ?
Why does my brain is telling me to hurt that Na'vi when my heart only wants to understand her ?
