Promise me

11 • deadly beginning

I hear horns, something must be wrong. I run out of the sully marui with Kiri as we see people filling up the common marui pod. I think of the worse things to come.

Is there war? Did Quaritch find us? What is going on?

Turns out my thoughts were correct. We walk into the marui pushing through people trying to get to the center of the attention. Over the heads of people I see tonowari and ronal yelling at someone.

"You live among us and you learn nothing!" I hear ronal yell. Is she talking about Jake? I push through a few more people and meet Aonungs eyes across the room.

He had discust, horror, fear and anger is his face. I could tell this wasn't going to end well.

"We will fight to protect our brothers and sisters!" One Navi warrior tells as he slaps his chest and yelling out war cries as he sticks out his tongue. Many other metkayina follow him. Even Aonung and Rotxo.

I see tsireya is  very scared, she hides behind her brother crying. I start to get angry. Neteyam is trying to calm people down and I see he is holding a big red thing. I get nervous as to what they found.

I look beside me to see Kiri having a panic attack. I can't comfort her and it wouldn't help much with the ruckus going on around us.

I start to march over to Aonung as the others are too busy to discuss things with me. He holds a spear, ready for anything. I walk beside him as I grab his arm in worry and confusion.

"What is going on!" I ask angry and scared at the same time.

"Sky people.. they have brought this upon us. They killed my mother's tulkun and her baby. They have a human boy with them who speaks Navi. They're looking for Jake sully." He says angrily.

"You've brought this.. I should've never trusted u" he adds.

That hit me like a bullet

I let go of him, staring at him with disgust and disbelief. How could he say that. I was never even apart of the sully family and I brought this upon him? I consider them family but I'm not even related to them in anyway.

I look at tsireya as she watches Loak. All metkayina are running to go find their brothers and sisters, listening to tonowari and ronal.

I watched Aonung leave, I couldn't deal with him right now but he made me angry.

I look away to see Neteyam follow Loak, Loak was up to something and it's never good.

I run after them as I see Aonung, Tsireya and Rotxo standing as Neteyam tells them to follow him. Without a thought I follow them through the waters. Outside the reef we meet up with Payakan, he has one of those red things.

Tuk and Kiri followed us even though they shouldn't have. They comforted Payakan as we all tried getting the tracker out of Payakan. We all pulled and pulled with all of our strength.

It was no use.. "call dad!" I hear Neteyam say. Loak hesitates but did so as he called him on the intercom. I can hear briefly what he is saying.

"Grab a rope!!" I hear Neteyam say. He follows his own words as he grabs a rope from his Ilu throwing it to Aonung.

I couldn't stand to look at Aonung. I couldn't believe I even liked him. Aonung tied it to the tracker and Neteyam hopped onto the ilu and pulled as the rest of us pulled as well.

Eventually with all of our might, the tracker fell out. Neteyam offered to take it and told everyone to go, the ship was coming in close. Too close for comfort.

We don't hesitate to dive down. We see submarines following us as we decide to hide in the seaweed. We swim in all different directions.

I find myself alone, in a canal of seaweed. There is no one to be found and I don't see any lights of the submarines.. did I lose them?

I start running out of air as I wasn't very well at holding it for long. I had only been here for two months.

I risk it all as I go up to the surface. I see no one above and I take the advantage.

I dive back down as I need to find everyone else. I ended up looking everywhere but couldn't find anyone. Did they get captured? Just then my ilu gets lifted up by airbags and I'm forced to swim. I see a submarine coming for me.

Accepting my fate but also trying to get away, I see someone close to me. Neteyam grabs my arm pulling me away from the submarine and dragging me to his ilu. I hold on tight as he signs that Loak, tsireya and Tuk is captured.

We swim around the ship when I notice Payakan hopping into the water, he just got off the ship! We still have hope. Neteyam taps on my shoulder letting me know to go to the end and sneak in as we goes to Loak and tsireya and Tuk to free them.

I give him a nod as I'm dropped off at a certain place and I climb up. I hop over the railing when I see sky people. Avatars and people in robot suits I try to run. I kick, fight, stab and punch whoever I could.

They were all over me to hold me down. I try to scream but they cover my mouth. I am stuck in a very uncomfortable position as I am brought to a place where I notice is familiar.

It seems like the railing Loak tsireya and Tuk was tied up to. I am tied by both hands behind my back and they tie my arm to the railing. It is very painful and I can't move.

I notice out in the ocean I can see Rotxo, Aonung and Kiri. I try to yell but my mouth is shut as I see Kiri get picked up by an ikran. Aonung then makes eye contact with me as he sees the gun up to my head. I can see an emotion change but he is too far away for me to tell.

Everything then went black as I felt pain in my thigh.
