I see Kiri laying face down in the water. I quickly rush over, I calm down when I see Kiri's hands move around.

I kneel next to her and tap her shoulder. She looks up at me, "Huh? Oh hi."

"What're you doing?" I look at a hole in the hand she was staring at.

"Looking at the sand. I saw something come out that hole, I'm waiting for it to come out again." She quickly puts her head under the water again and stares at the hole.

I sit by her and watch it with her. I start drawing patterns in the sand but stop when I hear people laughing.

I look up and Ao'nung is walking towards us with three other guys. I stand up but Kiri doesn't even look up at me, she so focused on that hole in the sand.

"Are you guys some sort of.. freaks?" Ao'nung laughs and his friends quickly start to laugh as well.

I roll my eyes and Kiri sits up from out of the water, "What'd you say?" She stares up at him.

"He asked if you are a freak!" One of his friends shouts. I clench my teeth and stare at Ao'nung.

"No." Kiri still stares up at him, she rolls her eyes.

"Come on Kiri, let's get away from this fish kissers." I grab Kiris arm and pull her up. I turn around but Ao'nung and his friends surround us.

Ao'nung walks around us, "Are you sure? I mean you're not even real Na'vi." He quickly runs in front of me and grabs my hands, "I mean, look at these hands." His friends laugh and I pull my hands away from him.

He grabs Kiris hands, "Look at them!" The laughs grow louder. I roll my eyes.

"Back off fish lips!" I turn and see Lo'ak walking towards us. Kiri walks away from Ao'nung towards Lo'ak and so do I.

"Oh another four-fingered freak!" Ao'nung holds out his arms while Lo'ak walks up to him.

All the boys surround Lo'ak and start to touch his hands, kuru, and tail. "Aww baby tail, it is so cute!" One of them shouts.

"Leave them alone!" Kiri shouts, they all ignore her and continue annoying Lo'ak.

"Kiri I swear I'll rip their ears off." I start to walk towards them but I get held back. Neteyam grabs my arm and shakes his head at me.

Then he walks towards Ao'nung and pushes him away from Lo'ak.

"You heard what she said. Leave them alone." Neteyam goes to face to face with Ao'nung, who still has a smug smile on his face.

"Ooh! Big brother com-" One of Ao'nungs friends attempts to speak until Ao'nung signals for him to shut up.

"Back off, now." Neteyam gently pushes Ao'nung again as a warning.

Ao'nung slowly raises his hands, still smiling sarcastically. "Smart choice. I need you to respect my sisters." Neteyam walks towards us after he finishes speaking.

Kiri sticks her tongue out at the boys before following Neteyam. I roll my eyes and walk next to Kiri.

"Bye bye!" One of the friends shouts to us. "The whole family are freaks." Ao'nung says.

Lo'ak stops walking and I turn around. Neteyam also notices that Lo'ak isn't by his side anymore, "Lo'ak."

"I got this bro." Lo'ak walks towards Ao'nung and holds up his hand.

"I know this hand is funny. Look I'm a freak, alien." Lo'ak moves his hand around in front of Ao'nungs face.

"But it can do something cool, watch." Me and Kiri stare at Lo'ak, Neteyam also stares in confusion.

"First I ball it up tight like this, okay? Then.." Lo'ak punches Ao'nung so quickly that it takes me a while to process it.

My eyes widen and I look over at Kiri, her reaction is the same as mine. I look back over to Lo'ak and Ao'nung is laying on the floor.

One of his friends kneels down by him but Ao'nung pushes him away. "It's called a punch bitch! Don't ever touch my sisters again!"

Ao'nung gets up and him and his friends hiss at Lo'ak. Ao'nung slams himself into Lo'ak sending them both to the floor.

Lo'ak gets on top of Ao'nung and punches him, one of Ao'nungs friends grabs Lo'aks tail.

Me and Neteyam look at each other in disappointment. He runs towards the fight to help Lo'ak, so do I.

I quickly turn to Kiri as I'm running to the fight, "I told you I'm gonna rip their ears off!"
