The Story Of Us

001: Only for you

Neteyam, Lo'ak and Claire were having an ordinary flight above the damage that had been in the previous fight.

"Jeez, this is a mess" Claire sighs as the rubble beneath her burns slowly. "It's horrible."

"Wait.. no, wait, what?" Lo'ak paused leaning down close to his ikran.

"What is it Bro?" Neteyam asks with pure curiosity.

"The fight, it's still going on, HOLY CRAP, DAD'S STILL THERE" Lo'ak screams to get the message across to the two beside him. "I'm going down, they need hel-" Neteyam without a second thought interrupts him. "No, no, no, not a chance, Dad said for us to stay out of it, he will skin us if we go down there!" "Lo'ak, Neteyam is right! You two may be soldiers, but your father's orders were to-, oh great, hes flying down there." Claire looked up to Neteyam with a heavy sigh. "I- Lo'ak you idiot!" Neteyam screams at his brother as Lo'ak landed. "You go back to base Claire, the chances are this is going to get messy, we don't need Dad shouting at you too." He began to fly down to Lo'ak. "Claire, go back to base, I don't need my best friend dead, okay?" "Jeez, Teyam, your so overprotective sometimes, loosen up would ya?" She said with a grin as she bolted to where Lo'ak was whilst blowing Neteyam a kiss. "CLAIRE GET BACK HERE." He screamed, as that didn't work, he huffed as a 3-year-old would not getting his way and flew down to Claire and Lo'ak.

"You two are going to get yourself killed, you know that?" Neteyam stated. Lo'ak looked to Claire and smirked at her. "We know." They both say in unison, and all Neteyam can do is roll his eyes, until Lo'ak is handed a gun. "Really Lo'ak, you don't even know how to use that Skxawng." He said pulling the gun out of Lo'aks grasp, Lo'ak held on. "Yes, I do, dad taught me." He proved his brother wrong loading it and aiming it to see through the lens. "Skxawng" Claire mutters under her breath. "Didn't hear you there Claire, what was that?" Lo'ak said thinking he was being smart with his words, as he didn't expect it, Claire repeated it. "I called you a Skxawng, you kurkung!" ('Kurkung' means 'asshole') "Did you just-" Claire put her finger on Lo'ak's lips. "Yep, now shut up and do something 'mighty warrior'." Neteyam stood there in awe of the humiliation that Lo'ak most likely was feeling.

------------------------

Claire was running around the battlefield after the fight was over. "What the hell were you thinking! Come on Neteyam, you should know better!" You heard Jake stating, yet another lecture. Seeing them from a distance away, Claire slowly walked towards the 3 of them. Jake noticing Claire became more furious then before. "REALLY BOYS, YOU BROUGHT CLAIRE, you really just proved another level of stupid to me today, and you Claire! What were you thinking! Coming down here, in fact, letting the boys come down here too!" "Sorry Sir" She said in a solemn voice. "No, it wasn't her fault, it wasn't either of theirs, it was my idea to come down here and they came after me" Claire raised her head slowly looking at Neteyam as he was already looking at her, defending her honour. Before even blinking, Claire was roughly pushed to the floor with a force of heat and roughness, but as she fell, she saw someone fly? Wait.. FLY? OH CRAP. She stood up as fast as she could, seeing Lo'ak being picked up by the hair by Jake. Neteyam. "NETEYAM?!?" The scream left Claire. Running around the battlefield, she found him, she ran over to him. No, that was another, she left his side to continue looking for him, yes harsh, leaving a man for dead, but if she saved him she would leave Neteyam for dead. Jumping over a big machine she spotted him. "JAKE. I FOUND HIM." She sprinted her legs off to get to him. "Crap, crap, crap, Neteyam?" Claire said with a singular tear in her eye. "Neteyam?" slowly she moved him forward to put him into an upright position checking for exit wounds of any sort. She noticed he was bouncing a little. She let go of him and shoved him to the floor as he broke out laughing. "OF COURSE, YOU WOULD BLOODY DO THAT TO ME. GOOD EYWA NETEYAM, you. Scared. The. LIFE OUT OF ME." Claire said swatting his arm with each word. "Sorry C, just gotta keep the daily amusement levels up ey?". After that was said, Claire, punched him in the arm, which, was fair. "Owww, what was that for?" He looks towards her with pain in his eyes but a smirk on his lips. "Oh, believe me, if a bomb didn't just almost kill you that punch would have been a WHOLE lot worse!". All he did after that was a little head tilt, a bigger smirk, and he said, "Oh really, well, if so, maybe you should demonstrate it after hours." With not a thought she kicked the burnt dirt at him, "BLOODY DISGUSTING SKXAWNG." He just smiled, adjusted his hands behind his hands behind his head as if he was in the need to get comfortable. "Only for you.". "Ohhhh, you think your soooo cool don't you?" Claire said with a glare and blush toned out by her blue complexion. "Oh, well, C, I know I'm so cool, don't think I cant see you blushing." He said just simply smiling. "Is that so, well, you are quite a tomato yourself." Claire felt proud of that comeback, she just smirked at him. And what did he do. Of course. He smirked back, and with the next comment, you swore you were holding back every muscle to not slap that smirk off his face. "Wasn't trying to hide it." EYWA. LIKE. WHO SAYS THAT? NO. ONE. ABSOLUTLY NO ONE. Oh, how I prey to Eywa that one day he wont be so cocky.

Her attention was taken away from the shouts of Jake. "Claire! Is he okay?!?" "He's fine, although I wish he wasn't" turning back to Neteyam she says, "you know sometimes your very slapable." "Great what did the sxkawng say this time, also NETEYAM, WHAT THE ACTUAL EYWA WERE YOU THINKING.'' Jake said at the top of his lungs for the entire of Pandora to hear. All Claire does it turn away from Jake to look at Neteyam and just smirk at the boy laying in the dirt.
