Currently I am standing opposite a guy who is ten times taller stronger than me me and Zamunge are practicing spear fighting  and I am winning

"I can't figure out how you are as good as me"Zamunge jabbing  at me again which I quickly reflect

"I've been trying since I was 3 you really through this would be like training a newbie"

"So what was it like in the forest"

I smile up at him

"Beautiful trees so high they touch the sky the river were so clean and calming well it was"

Zamunge gave me a puzzled look

"The sky people destroyed most of the river except for so like this one that connected to this waterfall it was stunning"I let my guard down for a moment

Zamunge must have noticed and went for me again this time I swang the spear down by his feet he start to fall back then gets a wicked glint in his eye grabs my wrist and pulls me down with him

I land on top of him my hands on his shoulders now we were face to face barley a CM in between us

"So you play dirty"I say not moving a muscle

"Yeah I do"he says I can feel his breath on my face

Suddenly we hear yelling we both look down the beach  

"What are they doing"I ask getting off of Zamunge he gets up I stumble slightly Zamunge wraps an arm around my waste

"Why Eywa did you give us siblings"I ask as we jog over to what my brother call a fight we both walk in grabbing our restive siblings

"What are you doing"I hear Zamunge ask as I turn to my brothers

"Tsaheyli-"lo'ak started

"No you two have to stop being idiots"

"But Tsaheyli if was-"

"I don't care there is a better way of doing anything rather than beating up the chief's son"

"Tsaheyli they were bullying kiri"neyetam spoke up

I pause and look over at kiri who is looking down

"Go don't let dad find out and for the love of eywa don't go and punch some else"

I can hear Zamunge scolding aonung and his gang

"Lo'ak when you get the changes apologize please"

"What is going on"I hear my father voice he walks over with Tonowari I step back Zamunge stands by me as all the boys get dragged off

"Well at least we didn't get in trouble"said Zamunge smiling down at me

"Don't speak to soon"

"Come let's go out of the reef"

"I've been here a week"

"Yeah but your stronger than most here"

"Ok"

"I just need to get some stuff from home"

Once we get to Zamunge family's home I stand outside and wait running my hand over the knife my grandmother gave me

"Do you need something"ronal ask walking up

"No sorry just waiting for Zamunge"

"Hm my son speaks quite highly of you"

"I-I would like to apologize for how I acted"

"No need to apologize but you are right the eldest protects"

"Yeah sorry it just I am very protective over them"

"I understand you have had an interesting life with the war it is natural to be protective"said ronal putting the basket down

"How far along are you"I ask signaling to her baby bump

"About a month"

"Congration "

"Thank you you must good with babies"

"Yeah 4 times to practice  and I only dropped one of them don't tell neyetam that"

Ronal laugh then Zamunge comes out

"Well you took your sweet time"

"Whatevery"

"Be home before eclipse"

"I will mum come on let's go"he said throwing his arm over my shoulder

"Look after him Tsaheyli"

"I can look after myself"

"I will"I say

Once we were out of the reef we raced around for awhile then just lay in the water

"If we don't back soon I think my dad will send my brother after me"

"Ok but I doubt he would go that far"

"Oh trust me he has done it before and will do it again"

When we get close to the camp I can hear people yelling out lo'ak name

"What the funk happened"I ask once we get onto the beach

"Tsaheyli"I my dad says walking over

"What's going on"

"Aonung took lo'ak out of the reef"

I look up at Zamunge he looks pissed

"I am so sorry I will go and talk to my brother figure out were he left him"

Zamunge walked off making a b-line to his brother

"Where were you"my dad ask

I look to the ground Fiddling with my hands

"I'm so sorry dad"

"Tsaheyli you are the older sister you are supposed to look out to them"

"Dad trust me I am so sorry It won't happen again"

"I hope that is true"
