Kiri was passed out, laying beside Ra'ona who was in the same situation, Norm's eyebrows pressed together as he sees the girl but continues scanning her brain activity, just as Ronal walks into the marui, scanning her eyes along the humans.

Neytiri greets her halfway as Ronal just looks over at the machinery expressionlessly.
"I see that I am not needed here."
She turns to leave as Neytiri hisses and grabs her arm.
"You are Tsahik."

Ronal freezes, ears twitching as she looks back to all the equipment scattered around the marui.
"Remove these things."

Neytiri quickly turns to face the humans, shouting angrily. "OUT! you have done nothing!"
They quickly scatter and rush to pick everything up, Jake also helping them and leading them out.

Ronal breaths sharply before sitting herself between the two girls, Moving to put needles along kiri's abdomen and making blowing actions along her torso.


Outside, Norm listens to Jake as he explains his talk with Kiri.

"with Kiri, it sounds like classic frontal lobe epilepsy."
Jake widens his eyes and questions, eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Epilepsy?"
Norm nods again before continuing solemnly.

"With Rona on the other hand . . . .  we're still not sure, now maybe it triggered when Kiri had a seizure, but another possibility is that she has it too . . . has she talked to you about anything?"
Jake purses his lips.

"She- uh . . . I said some things to her . . . She's been closed off recently so . . ."
Norm nods, going deep into thought before looking back up at jake.

"Kiri managed to breath after seizing under water, but Ra'ona . . . It seems she completely went brain dead momentarily, like she was no longer in her body. If either of them connect to the spirit tree again, it's definitely life threatening, but for Ra'ona  . . ."

Jake goes deep in thought but looks toward max as he cuts in. 

"Jake . . . It could kill her."


Suddenly, Tuk's voice rings out from inside the pod.

"Kiri!"
Jake widens his eyes and stands up, heading over to see his adoptive daughter open her eyes and slowly sit up, sobs leaving her. Ronal ignores this, her eyebrows furrowed as she tries to wake up Ra'ona.
Tuk hugs the girl, looking over to Ra'ona with a sad face. Kiri gasps and jumps up in realisation.

"RONA! WHERES RONA!?"

She snaps her head around a gasps crawling over and touching the girls forehead lightly, before falling back and looking at her blankly.

Neytiri moves to Ronal, who had stopped and sat back, staring at the unconscious girl blankly.
"What? why have you stopped?"
Neytiri's eyes full of fear and concern as she looks down to the girl.
Jake walks in hugging Kiri lightly before looking Ra'ona.

Ronal just curses under her breath, continuing the treatment.
Jake stands beside Neytiri, "So? how is she?" 

Neytiri just glares at him, snapping her head back to the girl and ignoring her mate.
Neteyam and Lo'ak watch from outside the marui, fists clenched, Neteyam looking away with a pained expression.

Ronal continues to blow into different parts of the girls chest and stomach, pressing in treated needles while doing so.
