Eywa's Will (Jake Sully x Avatar!Reader)

Losing Battle

Chapter 15

You sat at the desk, head in your hands. This can't be it. This can't all be over, just like that.

Tears of anger and sadness flowed silently down your face, your heart was breaking into a million pieces. Your dreams were being ripped away from you.

"(Y/n)..."

"Get away from me Jake. I really can't look at you right now" you hissed, not even bothering to look up.

"Please let me explain myself" Jake started.

"Explain what?! What is there to explain!" You cried, whipping your head to look at him. A look of hurt and sadness crossed his face.

As of your heart couldn't break anymore. You gave in to his blue eyes, letting the anger fade.

"Why would you do this." You asked, your voice cracking.

"They... Offered me my legs back" he said, looking down.

Oh.

You put a hand on your head, carefully trying to sort your emotions. How do you respond to this? You knew how much Jake felt trapped in his own body and he was offered freedom. Maybe if you were in his position, you'd take it too. Regardless of them being antelope legs, you probably would have taken it.

"I know you hate me right now, what I did was stupid! So stupid! I'm so sorry, I never wanted to hurt the people. We just wanted them to move off home tree." He stated, looking to you "(y/n) please I never meant to hurt you"

You put a hand to your mouth to cover your frown, you were hurt.

"I don't hate you Jake. I hate the circumstances we are under, I hate that the Omatikaya. Our people are in danger just cause they are sitting under a stupid fucking resource that won't even matter in the future cause the earth will probably be dead soon." You stated, looking to Jake.

"I could never hate you though." You said softly, eyes softening slightly. Jake did what any human would do, or anything that is sentient. Fuck up.

Loud foot steps sounded down the hallway, Trudy rushed in to the lab a look of urgency in her eyes.

"Quaritch is rolling the gunships." She huffed "he's gonna hit home tree"

The ice of fear and anger ran through your vains.

"Oh my god" Grace said in horror.

Without another word, you and Grace jumped to your feet. You have to get through Selfridge, many people will die. Children, babies. All of the Omatikaya could die in this.
Grace was walking like a bat out of hell, you could feel her anger every step she took, she looked ready to kill someone.

Security quickly tried to grab her, and she quickly began to struggle. "Back off!" She seethed, shoving hands away from her. "Parker!" She yelled "wait, stop! These are people you are about to-" she shoved another pair of hands off her "I said back off!" She growled.

"No, no, no" Selfridge stated, shaking his head "they are a bunch of fly bitten savages that live in a tree! Alright? Look around! I don't know about you but I see a lot of tree's. They can move." He yelled, annoyed at the situation before him.

Jake approached him, glaring up at him.

"Can you guys just please." He said, motioning the security guards to grab you.

You struggled against them gritting your teeth. "There are families in there!" You said angrily, "there are children! Babies, are you really gonna kill them?" You said, watching his face contort in annoyance.
