The fire crackled and ignited small flames that illuminated Jake's features. He stard at the logs burning and dissipating slowly with the heat, along with the ashes that erupted from it hypnotized him as he sat in front of the fire, yearning for heat to keep him warm during this cold night in the Pandoran forest. His mind was blank and empty, with no other thoughts and feelings other than denial and confusion coursed through him without stopping.
As hard as it was to do, Jake let his eyes trail to his four children sleeping each on their own individual mats. Tuk was the hardest one to get to fall asleep, but Kiri helped her little sister through it, despite how much she was hurting deep on the inside. He was the only one awake right now, knowing that every time he closed his eyes, the same image that was making his heart crumble with every second would resurface the moment he tried to sleep.
The Sully family wasn't in their usual home right now, and were now residing in a small and haphazardly organized camp by the orders of Mo'at earlier that night. It was temporary, but the fact that they were staying here, only reminded the family of what they've lost. Jake stared with emptiness at the fire that was keeping his entire family warm. It had been hours after the kids fell asleep and it was nearing dawn, but Jake still remained awake.
His eyes were dead set on everything around him. The chattering of the animals outside the hut, the sky slowly getting a bit lighter as the sun started to rise, and the fire slowly started to fade after being lit up for so long. He had no idea how much time he had been awake, or when the sun even started to come up, but nothing of it made sense to him anymore.
The way that the evening turned out was nothing like he had hoped. He had been forced to end his date night with Neytiri far more earlier than he would've wanted. What he thought was just another star in the night sky ended up tearint his life apart, as well as his family. He had failed. Jake failed in every conceivable way to protect the one he loved the most, and now, his future was decided for him. His kids were absolutely devastated after hearing what happened to their mother, crying hours on end and grieving over the loss of the woman who gave them life in this world.
Jake had allowed himself to get separated from Neytiri on the run back to the Omaticaya fortress and base camp, and now regretted every second that passed where things could've been and looked different than they are now. Jake didn't know this, but he expected his kids to resent him, but none of them did. All of them; Neteyam, Lo'ak, Kiri, and Tuk were extremely grateful for their father being the person that was with their mother in her last moments, and that he didn't let her be alone when she perished. Neytiri died peacefully along with someone that she loved by her side.
