Neleilah's P.O.V
The next morning Neteyam and Lo'ak canon ball into the water Tsireya dives in gracefully and Roxto and Aonung jump in Kiri and Tuk jump in while I dove into the water
"That was hot"Roxto said to Aonung
"Shut the fuck up Roxto" he pushed him under water and slapped the back of his head
"Woah who got so terrotorial over the span of one day"
Aonung hissed at him
"Okay guys we're gonna see if your good swimmers or not"
Everyone started swimming until most of the Omatikaya kept going up for air
Tsireya was signing to follow them Neteyam had no idea what she was doing with her hands
It took three to four times until everyone went up for air
"What happened"
"Your too fast wait for us"
"Come here tuk tuk"
I pick her up and swim with the both of us
"She's tired guys"
"And we don't speak this finger talk"
"It's sign language Neteyam Stupid"
"Well teach you"
"You guys are not good swimmers maybe swimming through trees"
Tsireya slapped the back of his head and I hissed at him
"Like you could climb through trees fish lips you would probably fall on your ass"
"I could climb a tree couldn't I Roxto"
"Sureee"Roxto replied with and I laughed
"Tuk would do better then you and she's seven"
"Yeah right"
"Okay guys we've gone off course how about we stop for the day and go and rest we'll see you early tomorrow"
Tsireya says to the whole group
"Okay great see you around" I start swimming with Tuk back to our pod I walk out of the water and onto the sang with Tuk in my arms
"You did pretty good out there for an outsider"
"Thanks Aonung"
Tuk wakes up from her sleep
"Morning Tuk Tuk"
"Well I better get her to sleep but I'll talk to you later"
"Okay see you around"
"Bye"
I walk back to our pod and put her to sleep
I walk around outside and see my brothers fighting the Metkayina
"Ow my ear"
"Ow my tail"
"Oi get the fuck off my brothers"I throw Roxto and Aonung off Lo'ak and Neteyam"
Lo'ak shakes the sand out of his hair and Neteyam stands up wiping the blood off his nose
"Are you okay"I grab Neteyams hand off his face and check it
"I'm fine Leilah"
"Good cause dad would never forgive me if you came home with ingurys"
"We both know that's a lie" he rolls his eye and shrugs me off
"Ok what happened here"
I turn around and Aonung is staring at me
"They called Kiri and all the rest of us freaks"
I hear from a rather annoyed Lo'ak
"You did what.well thanks Aonung and I just thought we were becoming friends"
"We are friends Leilah"
"Not anymore and it's Neleilah to you"
"Come on let's get out of here"
I put my arms on each of the boys shoulders and walk away
"These stupid Metkayina this place is seriously weird"
We walk back to the Marui pod and our father starts yelling at Lo'ak and Neteyam
"You guys are going to apologise to Aonung he's the chiefs son"
"They walk out to try and find Aounung"
Jake walks over to my mother and I cooking
"How did the others look"
"Worse way worse"
"Good that's good"
I smile and laugh
I walk outside and I see Aonung he explains what happened to Lo'ak and that he left Lo'ak out past the reef
"He doesn't know these waters Aonung I swear if you weren't the chiefs son I would rip you to pieces you stupid piece of shit"
I grab his ear and walk to my Marui pod
"Ow that hurts"
"This hurts my brother is out in the open ocean with animals he doesn't know he could be dead for all my knowledge and I swear to the great mother if he's dead I swear I'll make you pay"
We get to the Marui pod and I push him in front of my dad pushing him from his ear
"Tell him what you just told me"
He explains and my parents rush to the chiefs Marui
And tells them that Lo'ak is missing
