Tonowari:well,we never did anything special with our older kids together,did we Jake?
Jake:no
Tonowari:we can go to the purple cave

~
The cave:

~

Jake:yes,why not
Tonowari:but there will be a challenge, between our children, only if they want to
Neteyam: I love challenges

"oh shit if I say no i will be a loser" thinks ao'nung.

Aonung:yeah me too
Tonowari:nice,Jake please follow me,you two,whoever arrives first at the cave wins, you can leave when in the air you will see a spark thrown by me, which says that Jake and I have arrived, take your ilu and leave for the fathers!

Jake and tonowari leave them alone.

Neteyam:Aonung?
Aonung:yes?
Neteyam:the hug you gave me this morning...
Aonung:mh
Neteyam:it was between a mixture of happiness, lack and sadness
Aonung:oh you notice...
Neteyam:can u explain me why?
Aonung: happiness because you came back, lack because I missed you, I don't know why, I just did,and sadness,well sadness,you will turn out alone soon

as soon as aonung finishes saying the last word, they see a spark in the sky.
they leave,in the water,neteyam to the left and aonung to the right,then they make a switch for fun,they intertwine in the water while switching places,it's a magical moment.
Neteyam needs air not being as good as the other, so he climbs to the surface with his animal, Aonung knew it was a race, but he didn't care, so he follows Neteyam.

Aonung:are you ok?
Neteyam:yes, I only need air,why didn't you keep going?
Aonung: I don't care who wins, I care if you are ok,are you ok?
neteyam:yes,rather, are you okay? Since when do you worry about me?
Aonung:since the day we meet

Aonung doesn't wait and resumes the match.

Neteyam:hey wait!

Neteyam is back to aonung,he's trying to pass him but the bigger na'vi is too good in the water.
they arrive at the island cave, aonung had won,but they don't see their fathers.

Neteyam:where could they have gone?
Aonung:maybe in the cave(?)
Neteyam:let's go check

the two na'vi enter the cave and see a sight: dark purple "walls" with lilac and white crystals here and there.

Neteyam:wow
Aonung: it's magical,wow

before they could say anything their fathers came out from behind a rock and scared them.
Neteyam in fear grabbed Aonung's arm and hugged it.
the fathers seeing that scene of the sons hugging looked at each other and laughed, perhaps now Jake had understood it too, but not for the simple hug, but for the embarrassment created between the two sons.
Neteyam looks at Aonung then slowly detaches himself from his friend's arm.

Neteyam:sorry I was scared
Aonung: it's okay

Aonung smiles to try to show that it's okay and they go to their fathers.

Tonowari:the next thing to do is look for a mini lake, i've been here before, so I know it's there but I don't remember where, this time we're participating too.
Jake:nicee
Tonowari:Aonung and Neteyam do you want the teams fathers against sons or family against family?
Neteyam:fathers against sons
Tonowari:whoever finds the lake first blows a whistle,3 2 1 and go
Neteyam:follow me Aonung

Neteyam start to run to left and Aonung follows him,the fathers go the other way.

Aonung:where are you going?
Neteyam: I don't know,you know the way to find the lake?
Aonung:no
Neteyam:so you have no choice but to trust, we have to go somewhere

Neteyam watch the hand of the bigger na'vi and grab it,he start to run again,Aonung didn't expect it but was happy with this. Neteyam shook his friend's hand tighter and together they continue running towards who knows where,the moment was so romantic, Aonung was blushing and hoping that the young sully wouldn't turn to look at him, otherwise he would understand everything.
after a while they were running Aonung tripped over a pebble,Neteyam looks at him and crouches nearby in concern.

Neteyam:are you okay?

Neteyam looked really worried, Aonung laughed at the stupid moment, he had literally fallen on a very small stone, it could only happen to him.

Aonung: I'm fine thanks

then Neteyam laughs with him.

Neteyam:are you sure?
Aonung:yes don't worry
Neteyam:you skinned your knee

Aonung stands up and watch his knee,he was bleeding a little,neteyam gets down on his knees again to look at the cut in the knee of the friend.

Neteyam:and now is bleeding,let's go look for Tonowari
Aonung:yes

they go back and after a little walk they hear a whistle.

Neteyam:they made it!
Aonung:yes but they have to wait, I don't wanna run and fall again
Neteyam:ok we can walk no problem

so they keep walking.

Aonung:I was thinking...tomorrow night,after dinner, can we go out for a-a walk...?
Neteyam:us? alone? uhm yes,sure,later I ask dad
Aonung:oH NiCe,YeS NicE

Aonung didn't believe he did it, and Neteyam said yes! he was overjoyed and couldn't speak, he could only stammer.
he was blushing again and grinning like an idiot, he couldn't be happier.
after some walking time they arrived at the dads.

Tonowari:took your time huh
Aonung: sorry I falled

aonung said it laughing and still shaking from the question he asked his friend before, he was trying to calm down but he couldn't.

Tonowari:go into the water, it is salty and it will disinfect it for you
Neteyam: I'll go with him

Aonung put a foot in the water and goes in up to the pelvis,Neteyam follow him.

Aonung: it's really cold
Neteyam:yes it is,dad come
Jake: if I have to...

Jake and Tonowari enter in the water.

Tonowari:it's too cold, maybe we better go home
Jake: I agree with him
Neteyam:oh come on! I want to stay, you Aonung?
Aonung:yes,yes me too, obviously
Jake:maybe they can stay and then return home later,what do you think?
Tonowari:if they want,they can
Aonung:ok we stay

Tonowari and Jake leave,the young na'vi don't speak before not even a tail is seen,after that,Neteyam starts spinning his hands in the water and making noise.

Neteyam:it's so calm here

Aonung gives a mini chuckle and immerses his body up to his shoulders in the water.
after an awkward minute of silence the blue na'vi throw one splash of water at the other.
Aonung gasps and Neteyam laughs and keeps splashing him.
Aonung holds his friend's game and splashes him and gets a little closer.

Aonung:HOW DARE YOU

Neteyam laugh again,Aonung do the same, they are very close now.
Aonung takes the arms of Neteyam to make him stand still.

Neteyam:let me go haha

Neteyam stops resisting and stops moving, their eyes meet, Aonung releases his friend's arms and brushes the hair of neteyam away from his face.
Unfortunately Aonung, embarrassed by the moment, looks away and jumps into the water, as if to escape from Neteyam, who is shock.

Neteyam:where do you think you are going
Aonung: you will never catch me!
