Chapter 1

When Jake first started this journey, he didn't picture himself trying to pry apart two teen girls who were arguing over a backhanded compliment one of them gave the other. This all started a few days ago because Natasha was spending a lot of time with Spider. Kiri has a crush on Spider and Natasha knew that but was still spending prolonged periods of time with the human boy. Kiri and Natasha were still acting friendly with each other because the ocean Na'vi girl thought there wasn't an issue. That was until Kiri made a sly comment about Natasha's hair or top and that caused the other girl to comment on Kiri's appearance and that turned into the fight that Jake was trying to stop at the moment.

"Kiri let Natasha's tail go! Natasha stop punching Kiri in the back! Both of you stop! Just stop or so help me!" Neither girl really heard Jake and even if they did, they wouldn't have stopped either way. It wasn't until Neytiri and her mother came in did the girls pull apart. Mostly due to the woman yanking them apart by their ears. "What has gotten into you two? Fighting? This is not like you! Either of you!" Both girls looked at their adoptive Mother as their ears laid flat showing how guilty they were. Jake only sighed and sat down as he watched his wife and mother-in-law handle the situation. "What caused this?" Mo'at asked. Natasha was the first to respond.

"I insulted Kiri and taunted her. She was only defending herself." Kiri immediately cut the girl off. "No! I started it! It was my fault!" Jake watched in amazement as the two girls tried to cover for each other when just a few minutes ago, they were trying to claw each other's faces off. "Enough!" Neytiri said as she looked both girls in the eyes. "I see you won't tell the truth for fear of getting the other in trouble. You still act like sisters even when fighting. I want you both to talk this out. Now." The two girls left for the forest to talk while Neytiri walked to her mate. "I remember when my sister and I used to fight over things. Hair beads, song cords, boys." Jake looked at his mate with a surprised look. "This was before you ma Jake."

In the jungle, Kiri and Natasha talked. "Why'd you take the blame back there? You know it was my fault. It was me who insulted you first..." Natasha only took Kiri into a warm embrace. "You're my sister. I'll always take up for you." As the two pulled away, Kiri looked down. "I was mad because...you're spending so much time with Spider..." Natasha shook her head. "I only spent time with him because he wanted to know about all the things you liked so he could do something for you." Kiri smiled as her ears perked up. "Really?" The other girl nodded as they both squealed about Kiri and Spider potentially dating.

Later that day, Natasha was napping with Tuk when she felt the girl squirm in her arms. Sitting up as the girl started to shake her, she was met with a handsome face in her own. "Hey Lo'ak. What's up?" The Na'vi teen smiled and put a hand on her head. "Come on, we're going to go exploring." The rest of the exhaustion that was in her left Natasha's body when she heard the word 'Exploring'. As they went on their way, Natasha and Lo'ak held hands which made Tuk gag and ask a ton of questions. "You're courting?" Natasha giggled and shook her head. "No Tuktirey. I just like being close to Lo'ak." Spider kept sending Lo'ak knowing looks which made the Na'vi teen look away to hide his blushing face. Suddenly, the 5 came upon the old shack where Spider's father and Jake battled. They also found Na'vi that weren't like them.

They had guns and they looked rather unfriendly.  "Holy shiiiiiireally can't say that word right now." Natasha said as she remembered Tuk being right next to her. "We gotta call this in." Lo'ak said. As he did so, Natasha kept an eye on the strange Na'vi. She could hear Jake's voice as she asked who was with Lo'ak. He sounded completely done with all the bull the RDA was pulling. "Spider, Kiri, Natasha and...Tuk." The silence was deafening before she heard Jake tell them to get home immediately and not to engage. It was almost eclipse and the 5 had only one assignment at the time. Get home safely. As they were on their way, Kiri told Lo'ak that he was for sure to be in trouble. "Tuk slow down." Natasha called out trying to keep up with the younger Na'vi girl.

"It's almost eclipse Tasha! I wanna see it at home! Come on!" Suddenly the 5 were surrounded. Spider and Lo'ak heald their bows at the Na'vi who had grabbed Tuk before eventually dropping their weapons. Natasha had tried to grab Tuk from the strange Na'vi but she yanked back by her braid and punched in the face knocking her to the ground. "Natasha!" Lo'ak called out to the girl as she was grabbed and forced on her knees. She could hear the cries of Tuk and the growling and hissing of Spider and Lo'ak. Kiri was like herself, calm. Trying to calm Tuk as well because the poor girl was quite literally freaking out. "What have we here?" A male Na'vi asked as he looked at each of them individually.

She felt the male's eyes linger on her for a bit  before one of the others called to him."Colonel, check it out. 4 fingers. We got a half breed." The man then looked around before looking at Lo'ak. "Show me your fingers boy." In plain Sully fashion, Lo'ak flipped him off which earned a giggle from Natasha causing the male to turn her attention to her immediately. "This one. She's different. She's not like the others." A voice said as the male it belonged to held her tighter. "You got that right. Let me see your fingers girl." Glaring at the male, Natasha hissed and growled at him while lurching forward to bite him. "Oh shit! Crazy bitch!" The male holding her said as he yanked her braid causing her scream in pain.

"Hey! Stop! Leave her alone!!" Lo'ak called out. The male in charge walked back over to Lo'ak and grabbed him by his braid causing him to hiss. "You're his alright. Where is your father?" Lo'ak only hissed again at the male. "Really? That's how you wanna play it? Fine." He pulled a large knife which caused the Na'vi youth to protest. "No! Please!" Natasha cried out. The malle then made his way over to Kiri which caused Spider to shout. "Hey! Hey don't touch her!" As the male turned to Spider and asked his name, Natasha's eyes bounced around looking for a way out of the situation. The Na'vi girl made elaborate schemes to escape dire situations before and now was NO exception. If anything, it was what they needed.

She knew she'd probably die going through with it but she rather die a hero than live a captive. Sometime later at night, Natasha looked around for a way to execute her plan, however before she could even think about doing anything, one of the 'demons' she dubbed them, grabbed her face. "This one we need to keep an eye on. She's looking for a way to escape. Smart bitch." He pulled her face closer to his only for Natasha headbutt him breaking his nose. A smile came to her face and her heart swelled as she saw the look Lo'ak gave her. This feeling didn't last however when the male grabbed her by her arm and started dragging her away from the group with two others following. She could hear the wails and pleas of her adoptive siblings the farther she got from them before the male pushed her into a tree and held her there as he began to loosen his belt.

The Na'vi girl began to squirm, bite and claw to an escape that wasn't coming. She was only punched in the stomach and forced on her hands and knees with a gun to the back of her head. Tears ran down her face as she heard the laughter and hushed snickers of the males behind her. Before the male could touch her however, she heard a noise and a groan before gunfire then silence. Trembling and absolutely terrified, Natasha dared to look behind her only to see nothing in the darkness. Her whimpers were the only sound in the quiet area and she was becoming quite frightened. Suddenly, footsteps came in her direction. Upset and terrified, Natasha grabbed the gun of the dead demon next to her and pointed it at whoever it was coming at her. "Natasha? Natasha! It's me! Put it down sweetie!"

(Who do you think came for her?)
