Quaritch's pov: A hug shadow appears in the air. It's one of those whale things that the boat guys were showing me earlier, the one that got away. It landed on the boat and started killing my men. The girl I had trapped kicked one of my men under the whale and said "Yeah!" The whale went back into the water. I only had 4 men by my side after the thing left. We hurried and went back into the inside of the boat. "Where's the spider boy?" I ask. "We can't find him sir."
Lei'wa's pov: The men run inside. The people come, and Neteyam jumps on the boat. "Hey baby brother, need some help?" He says. "Get us loose please." Lo'ak says, impatiently. "Thank you." I say, after he unties my hands. The boat starts to move. Neteyam gets Lo'ak free. "What if Spider is here?" I hear Lo'ak ask. "Who's spider?" I ask. "Our human friend, we grew up with him." Neteyam says. I nod, understanding that it's ok to have different friends from different places. "Hey!" We turn around and see a boy. The human boy. They run to him and give him a mask that was on one of the dead men. "Here, take this. We know he put a tracker in yours." Neteyam says. I can say, he's pretty smart for a 15 year old. "Let's go!" I say, jumping into the water. We got onto our ilu's and go to our homes to get our weapons. "Go get your things. I'll get my arrow." They pause. "Arrow?" Lo'ak asks. "I've been to see the Omaticaya land before. I met Neytiri's mother. Mo'at?" I say. "How?" Neteyam asks. "Aonung pissed me off bad to the point I left and didn't come back for a month. Mo'at made sure I wasn't seen and gave me a place to stay for a while. Then I came back." I explain. "Do you have your own Ikran?" Neteyam asked. "Mhm. I just never call her out because of Tonowari and Ronal." I go get my arrow, leaving them dumbfounded. "Let's go." I say, when we all meet back at the spot. We chose to use our Ikrans this time and not Ilu. Spider goes with Lo'ak and me and Neteyam ride side by side. "There! It is Kiri and Tuk. Who will take Kiri because I'm getting Tuk." I asked. "I'll get Kiri because Lo'ak has Spider." Neteyam shouts loud enough for us to hear. We swoop down to pick them up and head to my hiding place no one has ever gone too."This place is really pretty. Does anyone else come here?" Kiri asks. "No. You all are the first people to come here because you are the only ones I trust." I say, feeling them watch me as I feed Sanža. "I have to go back to get something, you all stay here. I mean it." I say, looking at Tuk, Neteyam, and Lo'ak. They nod and I head back to the village. Once I land, I see that the people have come back. Jake comes up to me. "They have been defeated. Their headquarters. Them. Everything. No more war." Jake says, eyeing my Ikran. Neytiri, Ronal, and Aonung walk up to me asking the same question. I explain everything to them. Neytiri hugs me and Jake pats my back. Tonowari eyes Aonung. "This is unbelievable! You leave your people and go to other people's land?" Ronal says. I just roll my eyes at her and tell Jake and Neytiri only where their kids are. "I appreciate that you trust our kids enough to take them to your secret place." Jake says. "Secret place?" Aonung repeats. I hear an Ikran screeching behind me. They have come back.
Neteyam's pov: She is taking too long to come back. "We need to go to her. Now." I say to Lo'ak. "But she said-" I cut him off. "Now." I take Tuk. Kiri calls her Ikran and Lo'ak takes spider. We go back and see Lei'wa with our parents gathered around her. We get off and come up behind her. Standing behind her and watching Aonung yell at her. "Secret place?" Aonung asks her. "Yeah secret place. Aonung what'd you expect. You are an absolute dick to everyone and a mama's boy and you expect me to trust you? Do you know how many times I've forgiven you?" She asks him. "Too many times. And this family has made me realize that I don't need to get along with you to stay with the people. If I want other friends male or female. I will make them." She says, sounding more badass then ever before.
Lei'wa's pov: "Ok then, Forgive me and then show me your 'secret place'." Aonung said. "Aonung, you are unforgivable." I say, looking him straight in the eye. He nods an walks away, Ronal following behind him like his dog. Tonowari walks up to me. "I'm proud of you for standing up for yourself." And then he walks away. I turn around and hug the Sully family and the human boy. I see Aonung talking to his friends while they're staring at the Sully family. "War is over." Neteyam says to me. "I know, your father told me. It's finally over." I say, and he pulls me by the waist in for a hug.
