I woke up to someone shaking my body. I lightly slap that persons hands to stop but they didn't stop. I opened my eyes and tuk was right infront of my face.

"Oh my tuk its so early" I groaned.

She grabbed my hand and pulled me. "Come on! You gotta see this!" Her voice filled wuth excitement.

I don't have any choice but to stand up lazily and went out the pod with her. I slept late that's why I'm still feeling tired right now. Horn blew can beh heard outside. Na'vis yelling in excitement.

A big smile appears in my lips. The tulkuns came back! They're here to tell stories to their brothers and sisters.

Tuk let go of my hand and run towards our parents. "Everyone! Our brothers and sisters have retured!" Tsireya announced while waving her arm.

"Raya!" Someone yelled. That voice seems so familiar, I looked everywhere and my eyes landed on ao'nung.

He's riding his ilu smiling at me. "Let's go!" He smiled and waved his hand.

I smiled and jumped, riding behind him. He held my thigh before we dive in, my hands on his waist hugging him.

We stopped in front of a big tulkun. Ao'nung signed to me, it's his spirit brother. He held my hand and guided me to his tulkun.

He signed with his hand. "Hi brother" the tulkun made a sound too. "This is my spirit brother tsu'li, brother this is Raya my girl" he signed.

I smiled brightly and waved my hand hi, the tulkun made a noise again. "She's really pretty" ao'nung smiled and nod his head. "She really is" he signed again.

They talked for minutes and we resurfaced sitting on the tulkuns fin. "Tsu'li said that he'll kill me if I hurt you, wow he likes you more than me" ao'nung said acting hurt.

I laughed at him and glided my hands above tsu'lis eyes. He closed his eyes and made a noise, I giggled at this.

"Its me though, what do you expect?" I joked.

Ao'nung laughed. My smile stayed on my face and we decides to dive down again on the water.

"I'll see you again brother" ao'nung signed.

The tulkun made a sound. "See you brother, goodbye" it's eyes turned to me. "See you again Raya" I smiled and signed back a goodbye.

"Let's go?" Ao'nung said. I looked at him confused. Where is he taking me this time?

I nod my head and he guided me to sit on his ilu. He brought me to the cove. It has been a long time since we go here, I missed this place. We walked inside the cove and sat down by the grass.

"Why did you take me here?" I asked him.

His smile earlier when he saw his brother is gone. I can sense that he's sad and is thinking of something. I don't know what's going on inside his head.

"I just... wanted to be away from others" he replied and gave me a sad smile.

I scoot closer to him and hugged him. He did the same and burried his face on my neck. I gently pat his back for comfort. I know he's sad, we've been together for weeks now.

"What's wrong?" I whispered enough for him to hear.

Ao'nung released a deep breath, his shoulders going up and down. "Its about mom and dad"

"What about them?" I asked.

"They.. they got mad at me last night" he whispered.

I separated from the hug. I held his cheek and looked at him straight in the eyes. Sadness can be seen on it. I smiled at him telling him that I'm here for him.
