Jake jumps down onto the boat, as he lands just behind Magu, before getting his Tsurak to go back, under the sea.
"Tay'ra!" He calls out.
Magu does not turn around, as she does not hear him. Not when she could only hear the sound of ringing in her ears.
From all the fume and anger she had built up inside her.
"Jake!" Zo'ile calls out, "it is Magu! It is not Tay'ra!"
Jake looks at her and nods before looking back to Magu.
"Magu! Please.. let's talk" Jake calls out to her, as he's got his palm out, facing in her direction.
Magu feels herself drop, before her ears point up, as she had become alert to what was behind her.
She turns around to look at him, and smirks, "Jake Sully."
"Magu, listen to me" Jake tries to stay calm.
"Listen? You wish for me to listen!" Her voice increases as she speaks.
"You're hurting her. You're hurting Tay'ra. Please, do not do this" Jake says.
"The only person who has hurt her is you! You bought this upon us! You bought these people here! You have destroyed her heart!" Magu shouts to him as she lets out a hiss.
"I didn't mean to. I promise, I didn't want this. No one wanted this but especially not me" Jake says, "I would never wish to hurt your daughter."
Jake looked around on Tay'ras' body. It was no longer the same.
She had deep cuts, all over.
Her hands had become more rough, along with claws, that had been bought from Magu.
And not to forget, her eyes.
Her eyes are what scared him the most. It is what scared everyone, the most. No one dared to look into them.
No one apart from Jake, who just wanted Tay'ra back.
"How will you repay, for what has happened, to Lili'at?" Magu asks, walking towards him slowly.
"That is between me and Tay'ra. And I am willing to make it up in any way that I can, because she is the woman I need. Please, give her back to me" Jake says.
The bond between Tay'ra and her mother.. it was a strange one. Un breakable, but strange.
Before Magu had passed, she made a promise that the second Tay'ras' heart broke, she would take revenge.
She had a claim on Tay'ra, that no one else could have. Because she, was the goddess of the Sea.
"I will not give you to her. She is my child. Mine!" Magu shouts.
Jake notices her twitching.
He looks into her eyes, seeing a slight change in colour. He knew that Tay'ra was trying her best to fight this.
She did not want this.
She did not want her mother to hurt him.
But once again, Magu was too strong.
"She gave you a chance and you have betrayed her" Magu begins to walk towards him slowly.
"Jake, get back!" Zo'ile shouts.
"He's going to get himself killed" Deiya whispers.
"Look, you are angry with me, right? You wish for me to be dead. Let Tay'ra go, and kill me. You are hurting her" Jake says to Magu, as calmly as he could.
