Walking into the cave I couldn't stop thinking about the day of the Ancestors. If I were to be future Tsahik I should've been learning a dance, but I haven't been. Maybe I'm not the Tsahik and they decided against it? I hope so.
"Wow," Kiri smiles as she looked around the cave.
The cave had a massive tree in the centre with glowing leaves. Sharp rocks where grown around the tree and grass was the floor of the cave.
On the walls there were drawings of Navi, sign language, dances, Ilu, Tulkun, you name it. The most important things that happened each year was written on these walls.
"It's beautiful," Neteyam comments, staring at the tree.
"Spears are carved form the tree then sharpened on these rocks," I remind him, pointing at the rocks surrounding the tree.
"Have you gotten a spear?" Neteyam asks.
"No, you can't until your 18," I respond shrugging.
Neteyam and I continued to talk about the cave and our homes. He told me fascinating stories about the forest and what life was like. I loved it.

Aonungs POV
If Ka'nu where to be future Tshaik we should be learning the dance as the day is in a week. Actually, I haven't been learning a dance either.
Am I not the future Oley'ktan?
"Tsireya, why haven't I learnt a dance yet?" I whisper to Tsireya, pulling her aside.
"Don't you remember?" Tsireya looks at me like I'm stupid.
"Remember what?" I exclaim.
"You learn the day of, so it's more natural," Tsireya sighs at me, rolling her eyes.
"Oh yeah," I remember.
"Now that your 17 you will be learning the dance, who's your Tsahik?" Tsireya asks.
"Um, I don't know," I reply shrugging as I look over at Ka'nu.
"Oh my Eywa," Tsireya sighs walking towards Lo'ak.
I turn my head looking for Ka'nu so we can talk about this when I see her with Neteyam, laughing and talking and smiling and laughing. Why is she laughing?
What the fuck?
Walking over there I stand behind Ka'nu, glaring at Neteyam in hopes he'll get the message. He did not.
"Hey Aonung," he smiles at me before going back to talk to Ka'nu.
I don't like Neteyam
"Aonung can I talk to you?" Ka'nu asks, turning around to face me.
"Yea sure," I nod nonchalantly.
"Bye Neteyam I'll see you later" Ka'nu smiles at him.
"Bye," He smiles back.
Ew
"What's up?" I ask once we're out of earshot.
