Shame

Chapter 33

When it felt liked the day couldn't get even more filled with quilt and judgement, that was not true. As there had been some others that had yet to see, the errors of their previous actions and now present actions as well. It had now reach the edge of facing a relatively, and beware of future consequences as well. It felt like it was time to stop sugar coating everything, and just rip of the bandage that has been stuck for to long. What will take for someone to finally rip off the bandage, and speak the truth that has been stored away for two long.

Neytiri " mother we need to talk"
The tshaiks had gather once again with some of there healers that came as well, as everyone thought it will be a good time to gather to talk and learn from each other as well.

Neytiri " I wish to speak to you about lani"

Mo'at " well speak my daughter or hold your words for a better time"

Neytiri " I along with Jake and tsu'tey have seen how close lani and knee knee have been getting, since the boys return to this village"

Mo'at " they are teens my daughter that common behavior"

Everyone " ....."

Ursa " all you act like cruel children towards someone so young"

Ronal " ......"

Moat " it makes me sick to see your behavior and all the other reef/ocean navi people glaring at her and whispering at her, her some words she knows what you all are doing and I think past this point she doesn't care as she sees it not worth her time"

Ursa " the Great mother will be ashamed of she children treating another so coldly like this"

Moat " I have to agree and I have see lani seek guidance from myself and humans along with many others, guidance she should be getting from her own mother but it seems like she hasn't one of the guidance of her staying with the clan or leaving"

Neytiri " wait lani is planning to leave"

Moat " that up for her to decide and what ever decision she makes I will be proud of her and give her my blessing as well"

Neytiri " mother we need to ..."

Moat " leave me all of you expect ursa im done with all of you I need time to think right now and pray to the great mother for help"

Neytiri " mother"

Moat " I said leave neytiri now before anything else happens to bring more shame upon us" the others soon packed up and left moat and ursa, none of them feeling well of what has happened. The feelings of quilt and judgement was looming over them, as they are heading back to the village rethinking everything. Moat words had really gotten to everyone but she didn't speak the truth, now they most learn to accept it and learn from their mistakes before it was to late.
