Not so long after Nakirä and Neteyam went on their water date. They see, a lot of Metkayina including their parents, the Olo'eyktan and Tsahik, and of course a few Metkayina warrior going towards the reef. They follow behind the warriors and caught Neytiri's attention. She blinked her eyes slowly signing, " Dont make a sound ". Neteyam and Nakirä understood her sign and keep following in silent. When they near a dead Tulkun, Nakirä closed her mouth with her hand. They see a lot of Tulkun gathering the dead one.

Ronal swim towards the Tulkun and sat on her fin, she hugged the body near the eye in tears, " No...no, sister "

All of them could hear Ronal's voice become sorrow, they all could hear Ronal grieving over the Tulkun. Pressing her forehead onto the Tulkun's dead body. Tonowari let out a sigh, looking at his wife become vulnerable

" Her name is Roa " said Tonowari, Ronal look at behind specificly on Jake and Neytiri

" She was my spirit sister, the composer of songs. We would sing together....Well respected of her clan. She waited many breeding cycles to earn the calf, the clan was so happy for her " said Ronal, her voice still expressed deep sorrow

" What is this Tonowari? WHAT IS THIS? " ask Ronal nearly shouting

Roa was like her soul. She accompanied Ronal since she was a teenager. She listened Ronal when she nearly mated with her husband now, Tonowari. The Metkayina says, Roa is the nice and delicate version of Ronal.

Tonowari swim towards Ronal and gently carry her to his Tsurak, and signal the clan to head back to Awa'atlu. Tonowari gently comforting grieving Ronal in his arms, he never sees Ronal so vulnerable like this. He kissed Ronal's forehead softly whispering to her, " It would be okay, we will find who's behind this and i would let you kill them " said Tonowari

Ronal just nodded, her body went limp still couldnt believe the fact that her spirit sister just died because of the sky-people. When others Metkayina head back, Jake and Neytiri goes looking at the Tulkun then he notice a red tracker on the other side of Tulkun. Neteyam and Nakirä followed Jake and Neytiri.

" Boy, get the tracker. We need to show it to the Metkayina " said Jake

Neteyam disconnect his queue from his Ilu and swam to Roa's fin and pull the tracker off. Nakirä connected her queue to Neteyam's Ilu and slowly directed his Ilu to Neteyam. He sat behind her looking limp, Nakirä rubs his knee.

Then they follow Jake and Neytiri from behind, Neteyam's head goes to Nakirä shoulder. He whispered him, " Something really bad about to happen, Ma Pandora " said Neteyam

Nakirä nodded agreely, " The Metkayina would do something that could harm them, i'm afraid this was a trap, Ma Teyam " said Nakirä

Neteyam kisses her neck for comfort, " I sense it too, i'm afraid it was Quaritch " said Neteyam

Nakirä heavily nodded again, " He always hunt us, Ma Teyam " said Nakirä

Neteyam went silent, if she wasnt connected to the Sully's. She wouldnt experienced any of this danger, she would still live in Omaticaya become a warrior or even a Tsahik replacing Ronal. Her day would only be spent on teaching other kids or helping Norm

" I'm sorry, Ma Pandora " said Neteyam, his forehead now sticking onto Nakirä's shoulder, " I'm sorry "

When they arrived in the village, they found a lot of people gathered in the Olo'eyktan's Marui.

" My spirit sister and her baby, has been killed by the Sky People " said Ronal

" This war has come to us ! We know about the hunting of our Tulkun, but it beyond the horizon. But it is here ! " said Tonowari, he showed the Pukana tongue expression

Jake stepped up and try to calm Tonowari, " No, you don't know. You have to understand how the Sky People think " said Jake

Lo'ak in the corner of the Marui could see Tsireya crying looking at how rageful her parents and her brother are.

" They don't care about the Great Balance " said Jake, he tried to explain. Neytiri in the back of him looking at the condition, the whole Awa'atlu is full of rage right now

" We don't justified the Sky People ! " shout Mahoki, Aroi's father.

" You need to tell your Tulkun to leave ! You need to tell them to go far away !" said Jake

Ronal hearing Jake's advice is more furious, " Leave? You lived among us, and you learn nothing ? " ask Ronal in a disbelief voice

" We will fight to protect our brothers and sisters ! " said Mahoki, he slams his palm on his chest and doing the Pukana.

" No no no " said Jake

" If you attack, if you fight, they would destroy you ! They would destroy who you love " said Jake, intertwining his palm directly to Ronal's stomach

Ronal held her hand to hold her unborn child.

" No ! Hear my words ! " shout Jake, try to convincing the Metkayina

Neteyam and Nakirä in the side try to calm down the angry Metkayina, " Stay Calm ! Stay Calm ! He speaks the truth ! " said Neteyam, he's carrying the red tracker

Nakirä in the right side, try to calming the Metkayina aswell, " Mawey ! Mawey ! " shout Nakirä

" Damn it ", Jake exhaled and grab the tracker from Neteyam. He climb to the higher stand in the Marui and held the tracker high

" You tell the Tulkun, if they hit by one of this they marked for death " said Jake, showing the red tracker that was attached to Roa's fin

The whole Marui suddenly become quiet, they stare at the tracker in Jake's palm, " And call for me, i silenced it " said Jake

Ronal hugged Tonowari's arm, try to find comfort in her husband. Tonowari stare down at Ronal, signaling should he agrees with Jake or not. Ronal blinked her eye calmly and nodded agrees. She take a deep breath

" Go " said Ronal in a sullen tone

Lo'ak in the back, heading towards the Sully's Marui. Neteyam saw it and jogged towards Lo'ak. Nakirä notice her mate is heading towards somewhere, she follows him.

Protecting their siblings, without knowing the consequences of their own souls. Without knowing the burden their siblings  could experience.
