NÌNRRA DODGED THE PUNCH HEADING HER WAY AND STUCK HER LEG OUT, KNOCKING THE MAN ONTO HIS BACK. She quickly and smoothly unsheathed her knife and brought it down to his throat. Jake smirked at their position and playfully raised his hands. The girl got off of him and placed her knife back to her thigh.

"You are slow. Because you are bigger you tire out more easily." Nìnrra walked through the village towards where dinner was being held. Jake followed behind her like a lost puppy. Once she spotted Neytiri, Nìnrra grabbed Jake's hand and softly pushed him to sit next to her before walking off to help prepare. Neytiri followed her with her eyes and looked to Jake.

Neytiri closely examined him and once again found him to be attractive. She stated at Jake, lost in her thoughts. She finds both Nìnrra and Jake very attractive but could she choose between them? Did she have to? When Jake finally met her eyes she quickly shook those thoughts away and turned to look at the ground. Jake gave her a confused look before shrugging.

A little while later and dinner was beginning. Nìnrra sat between Neytiri and Jake, their knees touching. She glanced at Neytiri who was laughing at something a male na'vi said. She continued to unknowingly give them a death stare. Feeling someone's eyes Neytiri looked to find both Nìnrra and Jake with narrowed eyes staring at her or rather the boy beside her. The sight caused her to blush and she quickly resumed eating her food.

After dinner the three decided go out into the trees. The bioluminescent forest was beautiful proving that Eywa put time into all her creations. Nìnrra sat on a fallen tree log and admired the world around her. Neytiri giggled as she pulled Jake with her, showing him all the pretty plants. Nìnrra thought the two were prettier but nonetheless it was a sight.

Nìnrra liked how the trees danced with the wind. She hoped to one day be that free, without worries. Pulling her knees up to her chest the girl laughed at Jake tripping over a root. Her ears perked showing her amusement and her tail curled around her. Neytiri smiled at her with a fond look and sat beside her.

Neytiri turned to stare at her. Feeling eyes on her Nìnrra glanced making eye contact with the woman. Their eyes expressed a thousand words that were stuck in their throats. Longing, desire, love. There was a fourth feeling that Nìnrra just couldn't pit her finger on. All she knew was that this moment was intense and she had no intent of breaking it.

Jake watched the two with half lidded eyes and smirked a little. He had no shame in admitting the scene was hot. He sat on the other side of Nìnrra and looked up at the sky. The stars were so pretty when they shined brightest. The three sat in comfort and content in each other's presence.

Nìnrra stared at the sky as she went into thought. There was no denying how she felt anymore. What she felt. The feelings for the people next to her was strong. And she had an inkling they felt the same. But she would leave it up to Eywa. The Great Mother would guide them into the right decisions.

Nìnrra and Neytiri lay low to the forest floor and watched with observant eyes as Jake stalked his prey. It was time for him to make his hunt and the two girls couldn't be prouder of how far he's come. Once Jake hit his mark and said the prayer, Nìnrra ran over and pulled him into her arms. "Amazing! You did well." Nìnrra let go of him and beamed.
"You are ready."

Jake would begin his climb in a couple of days. Before that time Nìnrra wanted to spend some time with him while Neytiri was busy with her duties. They whooped as they jumped from tree to tree. Finally stopping as they came face to face with a stone wall. Nìnrra pulled her bow around her body and began climbing up the wall. Jake watched wide eyes before following. His moves were uncertain compared to herself.

The dreamwalker breathed a little heavily once they reached the top. It was a cave system with plants that beautifully shed light inside. There was a hole on the other side that show casted a pretty sight of the sun going down and the animals flying around. Nìnrra grabbed Jake's hand and intertwined their fingers.

Once they sat down Jake marveled at the sight of the sunset. The colors mixed together so well and he was in awe. Nìnrra watched him with fond eyes and smiled, "I brought you here because it is good practice for when you make the climb. It is also my favorite spot to clear my mind." Jake tilted his head at her words and chuckled. Of course she would notice he has been troubled lately. He could never tell her.

Her subtle nudge was just that. When he didn't reveal why he's been tense she shrugged and leaned back. Words didn't need to be spoken in this moment. They just knew.
