6 Months later.

"I cannot believe you waited almost a year to tell your own mother you Mated with someone!" Neytiri says upset, yet happy for her son.

"I know mother.. i just wanted to wait til the time was right."

"Yeah.. They did it right before the big battle." Lo'ak cuts into the conversation.

"Wait a minute.. You TOLD LOAK?!" She shouted.

Lo'ak then sneaks away as Neteyam defends himself.

"Will you at least share with your mother WHO It is exactly?!" She said.

"Moth- ..." he sighed. "Eyalu."

"I knew it would be her!" She said.

"Wha-" he said confused.

"I could see it in your eyes When you looked at her! I am very happy for you my baby." She said as she reached to hug him.

She rocked back and forth as she held him in her arms.

She let go leaving her hands on his shoulders

"When will I have grand babies?" She teased.

"Mother!" He said flushed as he was embarrassed.

"I am just teasing." She reassured him.

Eyalu was gone for 3 months after the great big battle.

-
Flashback.

It was 4 days after the battle.

"Teyam..?"

"Yes?" He said as he was sat by her.

"I.. I wish go somewhere." She said, turning her gaze to him.

He pondered for a minute.
"Where would you like to go?" He gave her a reassuring smile, as he could tell she was nervous.

"To my village.." she said, as she began to fiddle her fingers nervously.

He froze, as his smile faded.. as he was caught up in his thoughts for a moment, Making her feel worried.

"Teyam?"

She snapped him back into reality, as he looked away with a "smile".

"Well then, we will go back to your village!" He said.

"No Teyam.." she said.

She caught his attention, as he moved his gaze back to her with a confused face.

"I have to go alone. I want to!" She said.

"Alone?!" He said clearly confused and distressed, as he turned away frustrated by her words.

She grabbed his chin gently, attempting to bring his focus back to her.
"Teyam, You have to understand, I never got to grieve properly, If i go back, then I hope to say a proper goodbye."

"What if it's dangerous..?" He said, as he turned his body to her, gently grabbing onto her waist.

"I am a warrior, I will be fine!" She reassured him as she gave him a warm smile.

He thought for a moment..

"Will this make you happier? And help you accept your villages death?" He asked with a serious expression.

"Yes!" She tilted her head as she climbed onto his lap.

"Fine then! But I will miss you! How long?" He asked as he had a pouty face.

She giggled at his adorable face.
"90-120 eclipses.."

"WHAT! That's too long without you!" He whined as he held her in his arms.
