The young Na'vi boy stood above the grave, his hands a bloody mess with his hair sticking out in all directions. It hadn't been easy but his mind was far away for most of the digging so he kind of just witnessed it through a haze. Slowly he rose to his feet, his tail swishing out to try to balance himself.

He looked toward the ikranay who was sitting on its hunches not too far away. They would have to get away from this stream, find a place to live. He personally would rather be as far away as he could from the place where he murdered another. To do that though they would have to travel, travel a long distance.

Still staring at the young ikranay he started to asses him. He was big yes, but probably not big enough to carry another for a long period of time. He guessed it was time to switch back to his other form, even though it would just bring him more pain. There was a lot of advantages to it, so he guessed he could deal with the pain that it brought.

First though, he needed a name for the ikranay, so he didn't have to keep calling it 'the ikranay' in his head and out loud. Let the naming commence.

"I guess-" he abruptly cut off. His voice sounded extremely hoarse, and kind of pitchy. It's like he hadn't used it in an eternity. After a few quick coughs and some more quick sips of water he continued.

"I guess I need to name you huh? You probably won't appreciate it, but I need to for the sake of my own mind. Hmmm, lets see You have beautiful markings, maybe Abha? No, I don't think a name starting with A fits." The ikranay just blinked at him, looking completely uninterested.

At this point he decided that they should at least walk away from the burial site, and so started walking back into the forest. After some pressuring, the ikranay started falling him too.

"Alright, I think walking might help me think. What about Kasha? That sounds pretty strong, kind of fitting too. Wait are you a girl or a boy?" Slowly he stopped and bent at the waist, checking below the ikranay.

"Welp, defiantly a girl, but Kasha still doesn't fit I think. Oh, what about Talon? Talon is tough sounding, you can be all badass and everything." Here he paused as he thought it over, Talon sounding wrong even in his head.

"No, I don't think that quite fits. What-What about Jadwiga?" He came to a stop slowly, turning to look at the ikranay, his heart rate speeding up. For some reason he felt a giant ache in his chest, yet a sort of happiness and acceptance as he pictured calling her name.

"Yes, Jadwiga is perfect." He said softly as he started to walk once again.

Sorry for the very short update, but for the next part to come out this week I have a VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION below

I need name suggestions for Harry for the story to continue. As many as possible so if you can!

Even if your name is not the ultimate one chosen, it will most likely be picked as another characters name or show up sometime during the story.

Please leave suggestions! I will also create a poll for voting if y'all would like that.

Thank you for the name suggestions for the Ikranay, I really appreciated it!
