Ao'nung watched curiously, holding my hand as Tuk took my back hair out of the braids, letting it down for the first time in ages. It reached down to almost the half mark of my nape. Luckily, Jake and Neytiri had not been home because I was not ready to talk to them.

My siblings however, bombarded me with questions the second they saw Ao'nung and I back sneaking into our Marui. Neteyam was able to calm them down. Leading to us sitting on the edge  over the water.

Tuk brushed my hair out a bit, leaving the strands in the front as Kiri re-braided, put seaweed and feathers into them. Neteyam and Lo'ak sat to the right of me, and Ao'nung sat on my left holding my hand. Lo'ak and Neteyam talked amongst themselves until Lo'ak glanced at me.

"A? If you and fishlips over here are mated, doesn't that make you the next Tsahìk?" He questioned

Everyone stopped what they were doing to stare at us. I looked over at Ao'nung quickly who had a slight smirk on his face.

"Ao'nung?" I asked, with wide eyes

"Well- I am the eldest of the current Olo'eytkan's children. Which makes me the future Olo'eytkan, which makes my mate the future Tsahìk" He explained smugly

It was quiet for about three seconds before Lo'ak spoke up.

"My big sib is the next Tsahìk!" He cheered

Neteyam gave me a pat on the back, Kiri beamed with pride, Tuk kept brushing my hair happily being too young to know what this meant, and Ao'nung rubbed my hand with his thumb before kissing it.

"So, My dear mate and future Tsahìk, how does this make you feel?" He asked as he continued kissing my hand

I just stared at him. I felt a bit of everything rolled into one. I was about to open my mouth to speak when a horn blew, members of the Metkayina whooped jumping off the platforms, and Tsireya rode towards us quickly on her Ilu.

"Everyone! Come quick! Our spirit brothers and sisters have returned!" She shouted at us with a big smile

Lo'ak immediately jumped down from the ledge, getting on the back of Tsireya's Ilu. Before they rode towards the village gates.

I turned to Ao'nung, his eyes lit up with joy. He pulled me with him as he called his Ilu. The rest of my siblings got on their own Ilu's and we all rode towards the gates. Ao'nung looked around eagerly until he pointed towards one of the Tulkun on the far right.

"Look! Its my spirit brother!" He exclaimed

I smiled and nodded at him as he turned his Ilu to go in the direction of his brother

I smiled and nodded at him as he turned his Ilu to go in the direction of his brother. I looked around us and I spotted Neteyam with a huge smile, laughing in joy at the tulkun and Metkayina together.

When we got to Ao'nung's spirit brother, he got off his Ilu, pulling me down underneath the water with him

When we got to Ao'nung's spirit brother, he got off his Ilu, pulling me down underneath the water with him. I grinned as I saw Ao'nung greet his brother, they looked so happy together. I couldn't help but be happy too, and the tulkun was very handsome. Ao'nung turned to me and signed.

'My spirit brother says you are beautiful" He signed, smirking at me

I blushed and turned to the Tulkun as Ao'nung watched us converse.

"Thank you, you are very handsome yourself" I signed to him

"Thank you young Na'vi, you are a perfect mate for my spirit brother" A voice said inside my head

My eyes widened and I looked at Ao'nung in confusion, he looked back and shrugged his shoulders. Then I turned back to the Tulkun.

"Was that you?" I signed

"Yes it was" The voice said

"But how?- I'm not even a real Na'vi, normal Na'vi don't have this power" I signed

"That is a question for Eywa, and you are as much Na'vi as I am Tulkun" He said

I smiled at him as Ao'nung took my hand. We waved goodbye at his spirit brother as he waved a fin back. After he had left I turned to see my siblings with other tulkun.

Tsireya and Lo'ak were with her spirit sister, Kiri, Roxto, and Tuk were with a different tulkun, hanging off its fin. There were little Metkayina babies, just taking their first swim. Jake and Neytiri rode an Ilu looking at a Tulkun mother with her calf. Ronal was conversing with her spirit sister and her baby.

It was a time for stories. Of their season apart, of deaths and births, of old friends and new loves.
