Avatar: To Live Again

One Final Prayer

With the clans together, the leaders of each clan along with Jake and I started to build tactics that could overcome and surprise the tawtute before they will be aware.

I was a bit nerved that a lot of leaders were looking at us and sometimes glancing that it became too much I had to excuse myself.

"Emersyn..."

I turned to see Tsu'tey and grinned "Shouldn't you be there with Jake and the others?" Tsu'tey shook his head and went to me.

"You look troubled..."

I sighed again before speaking "I am worried of what will happen as the battle arises" The image of the faces if the people I had killed flashed my mind and I clenched my fists.

Tsu'tey placed his hand on my shoulder and I smiled "I think I'm going to go somewhere else" I walked away and made sure no one was following me.

I haven't been doing this kind of act ever since I split ties with my family.

Sitting down beside a small lake, the bioluminescent of this place illuminated the night. I clasped my hands together and closed my eyes.

And I began to pray.

It felt odd for me to pray again and I felt ridiculous for even doing it but there was not much I could do since I've already sealed my fate to the Na'vi.

I didn't even realize my tswin was connected to the ground floor. Hearing footsteps behind me I didn't bother to open my eyes before that someone asked "What are you doing?" Opening my eyes, I looked at Tsu'tey.

"Are you really going to make it a habit of finding me?"

His tanhi glowed before he looked away "Your brothers were looking for you and it is nighttime, predators are up" I nodded before he brought back up the question again.

"What were you doing?"

I blinked before answering "I was praying, the tawtute way of praying to their mother" Tsu'tey looked lost and I laughed.

"We have an all mother like Na'vi and we call her Mother Earth but she was killed because of her children"

I looked down And Tsu'tey asked "What happened?" I turned and realized this might be his first time in knowing what had happen to our planet.

"Before, our home planet was like Na'vi and we use to live like Na'vi as well with the exception of predators with six legs and ikrans"

By this time, Tsu'tey was beside me and I bit my lip at his intense gaze.

"But, as time pass we grew abusive and hungry for power that we slowly destroyed our mother. Those who still care and love her fled to the forest but it was soon destroyed  overrun by machines"

An angry look crossed over Tsu'tey's face and I wonder if I was just adding up his hate to humanity or not.

"There are good tawtute Tsu'tey, the bad tawtute here are spreading lies to them on how...hostile this place is and how dangerous it is"

A stunned look came over Tsu'tey before he asked another question "When you came, what were your thoughts?" I shrugged "When I came, I was intrigued about this place. When I saw -" My gaze went to him.

"I fell in love..."

Was it just me or did it suddenly get hot?

I blinked when I found Tsu'tey suddenly close to me with an expression I rarely saw in his eyes as I instinctively closed my eyes and waited.

Something warm brushed against my lips before it was gone and I snapped my eyes open and stared at him in shock.

Tsu'tey breathed in heavily as if he had just came back from a very hard task. He looked at me before cupping my cheek and my eyes must have gotten big.

"Promise me...you will wait once this battle is over and I will come back for you"

I was confused, mostly because he knew I was joining in the fight whether he or Jake and Tom likes it or not (I'm not a fan of sitting by the sidelines) and his words were confusing me. Tsu'tey sighed in annoyance like he always did when I fail to understand something.

"When we survived and win the war, I will take you as my mate"

My jaw gaped at him and what he just said. He literally proposed in the most bluntest way I ever know.

My silence must have been an approval because he gave me an arrogant smirk and kissed my forehead before walking away.

I snapped out of my trance before I called out "Hey Tsu'tey! What was that all about?!" I wanted to whack his head because I didn't have any argument but -

I didn't mind being his mate.

Gah! Jake and Neytiri as well as Tom and Ni'nat's love dramas must have taken a toll on me.

I stomped my way over to Tom and Jake who were with their females.

"What's wrong sis, you look like you just encountered a love letter" Tom spoke and I glared and turned to him.

"Much worse, how about a marriage proposal"

Jake and Tom's faces were something out of a comedy and I would have laughed if I wasn't so into what transpired between Tsu'tey and I.

Neytiri  Ni'nat tried to get them out of their "My sister just received a marriage proposal" trance but they were still trying to process what I just said.

Jake was the first one to snap out of their trance "I'm going to have a talk with Tsu'tey, be back in a minute" Giving Neytiri a quick kiss in the forehead, he literally bounded away.

"That makes two of us" Tom said as he squeezed Ni'nat's hand before following Jake. The two girls and I stood alone "What happened? What did you just say that make them like that?" Neytiri asked and I shrugged in response.

"I have no idea you two. Sometimes I think men are confusing creatures. They act like they know but in truth they don't"

Why do I have a feeling their conversation was going to take longer than expected?
