TWO.

•••

all of the sully children aside from neteyam and tìli jumped across giant branches in the forest.

"go monkey boy!" kiri yelled out to spider who was up ahead of them all

"guys wait up!" tuk cried from the back

they all made their way back to the forest floor and were running around, tuk getting distracted by a different type of plant every second.

"tuk keep up!" lo'ak yelled at the girl

"okay, okay"

"bro, why'd you bring her anyway?"

"she's such a cry baby. she's all, 'i'm telling, you're not supposed to go to the battlefield' 'i'll tell mom if you don't let me come'"

"don't pick on her" này'kanu scolded while tuk stuck her tongue out at lo'ak

lo'ak climbed up a branch towards an old scorpion that had crashed and been left there.

"come on!" he yelled out to the others

"are there any dead bodies up there?" tuk asked

kiri slept on the grass as spider pushed through leaves and bushes. it was time for them to go back home and they hadn't been able to find the girl.

"kiri. kiri, hey" the boy shook her until she finally woke up

"are you okay?"

"i was doing that thing again, wasn't i?"

"yes, you were"

"kiri! it's time to get back" tuk yelled out

"come on" spider helped her up and they all started running back home

"what is it?" này'kanu asked when lo'ak jumped down and started looking at something

"we're always supposed to be home by eclipse" tuk said worriedly

"it's way too big for a human" lo'ak said looking down at the foot prints

"avatars?"

"maybe, but they're not ours for sure"

lo'ak and spider started walking in the direction of the foot prints, the other three looking at one another as they did.

"what are you doing?"

the five of them all stayed in the cover of the bushes as they watched the avatars walk around.

"we are never supposed to come here" kiri said

"dad is going to ground you" này'kanu scolded
