Smoke filled my nose as it scrunched from the unpleasant smell. I tried rolling to my side, attempting to find a more comfortable position.

I felt grass against my skin making me open my eyes and sit up.

Tall trees surrounded me, large and strong. A small lake was next to me, running up stream as fish jumped through it.

Where am I?

"Help!" I hear a loud scream and then an explosion.

The leaves of every tree in front of me lean back from the explosion, revealing disaster behind them.

Flames erupted through the Tsaheylun village, intoxicating everyone as they choked on the smoke. Humans jumped down in heavy machines, shooting every Navi in sight.

I fly to my feet, running towards the disaster to try and stop what's happening. When I attempt to push the hunky metal that was shooting I fall through it. I fell through the machine.

What?

Looking down at my hands I notice their translucent. I'm translucent. I'm in a fucking dream. I'm in a nightmare.

"Mum!" I hear an all to familiar scream.

I look up, seeing my younger self desperately cling to my mothers arms as we run away from the destruction. Xayk was following, fast on his feet.

"Fire!" Their leader commands.

No

"No!" I scream, trying to block their bullets but it's no use.

It's like everything's in slow motion. The bullet releases from his gun, dodging many Navi and hitting Xayk straight in the head.

I run towards him immediately, tripping as I do so and banging my head on the ground, my eyes squeezing shut tightly from the pain.

When my eyes open peace is around me. I'm in the forest where the Omaticayan use to live, before the humans came back.

Two dark figures in the distance catch my attention, jumping off their ikran and running towards me. As they get closer I realise it's Neytiri and Jake. They run through me, towards the group of Navi behind me.

"There's a new star, the humans are back!" Jake yelled.

I remember this day

"No," I whisper softly, tears prickling at my eyes.

I see my younger self, I'm only a year younger here but I'm much smaller. There's half as many scars on my body and my hair is much whiter. My muscles aren't as defined and I haven't had my growth spurt yet.

"We need to get everyone away, head for the hallelujah mountains!" Jake demanded.

"What no! We must fight back!" My younger self protested.

Ugh my voice was annoying

"Takara no," My mother said firmly.

"We're trained to fight, so why not fight?" T asked.

"Because this is a fight we cannot win, not yet at least so we need to save everyone," Jake explained.

"Fighting back will save Navi, I'm going!" T walks away.

"Takara stop!" Mum ran after me.

"No! I must fight, these humans killed our family mum, I'm disappointed in you for not fighting back too-,"

Suddenly everything fades away, everyone stops talking and vanish into the thin air.

The scenery around me changes as I stand up. I'm still in the forest but giant ships are connecting to the forest floor, flames arising from them.
