Kagome leaned against the home-tree, she was waiting for Jake. Mo'at invited her to come straight to dinner with her, but she declined for the night saying she wanted to sit with Jake tonight. She said she would sit with her from now on after tonight.
From what Mo'at told her, she was like a Tsahìk, and was saw as a high member of the clan. Kagome didn't' know how she felt about that but she kept quiet and said she understood.
For now she was Kagome or Swok 'ite, the daughter of Eywa. Kagome knew Grace was going to have a hay-day when she found out.
Sighing Kagome looked to the sky, it seemed like her life just got a lot more interesting. Feeling a hand on her shoulder, she almost jumped as she turned to see Jake.
"Took you long enough." Kagome smirked, earning a playful glare from Jake. He had changed out of his clothes and wore what most of the man in the Na'vi clan wore.
"Sorry" He gave her a small smile, as he stood next to her, "So how are you holding up?"
Looking at him with a small grin she answered truthfully, "It is a lot to take in. I don't really think I was all that different to begin with, but I guess I was wrong." Kagome looked again to the night sky, her eyes dimming a bit in sadness before returning to normal.
"But I do know one thing." she gave him a cheeky grin, "Grace is going to have a field day when she hears everything!"
Laughing Jake nodded, "I believe you are right about that!" Kagome smiled she knew he was a little brash, but he had a good heart.
"Lets go sit down to eat then, it looks like everyone is mostly there." Kagome suggested as looked to the gathering Na'vi.
Following behind Jake, Kagome watched to make sure she didn't step on anyone, unlike Jake as he already stepped on two Na'vi's tails. Shaking her head Kagome watched as he stepped on another tail, and hitting someone in the face with his own Kagome grabbed his tail, before it smacked someone else, causing Jake to look at her questionably.
"Either watch were your tail is or keep it on a leash."Kagome said letting it go, and saw him give a sheepish smile, "Also, look down...I don't think you would like your tail stepped on...so don't do it to them."
Jake gave a nervous laugh but did as instructed, he was slower going through but made it to an open spot to sit. Kagome rolled her eyes and followed behind him, making sure she did the same. She really didn't want to step on anyone, or wake anyone either.
Kagome sat down next to Jake, first making sure she didn't sit down on her tail wrong. It was going to take some time to get used to this new body. It was going to be her body forever. Hurt flashed through her, but quickly put in away. She would have time to mourn at at a later date. For now she would live only in the present, and not care about her past. She was somewhere new and exciting.
Taking the food that was offered, she gave a nod in thanks. She was used to this kind of food, it was like she was back in the Feudal Era. It was a comforting feeling, but at the same time not. She watched Jake give it a weird look, before taking a bite out of the food wrapped in a leaf.
She shook her head, knowing that this was all new to him. He was kind of like an innocent child, without the innocent part.
Before long dinner had ended, and Kagome and Jake were showed where they were to sleep. They were like hammock in trees. Blinking Kagome mimicked what Neytiri did to get to the 'beds' and settled down, closing her eyes. Hoping dreams would fill her.

Jake woke up with a start, the sound of Grace's voice calling his name. He felt light patting on his check, and a light shinning in his eyes.
"Jake!" Grace called out, "You with us" She had been worried as hell, wondering what had become of Jake and Kagome. Knowing she couldn't find out anything through Kagome since she was stuck in her avatar body, she had to wait for Jake to come back to his.
Having help sitting up Jake looked at Grace who was looking at him, trying to get him to talk, "Jake, Is the avatar safe?" Grace asked, she had to ask, "And Kagome? Did you meet up?"
Jake taking a deep breath nodded, looking at Grace in the eye, grin spreading on his face, "Yeah, Doc. And you won't believe where we are." He gave a small laugh as he saw there confused looks on their faces.
"We are in home-tree." Jake said, grin still in place on his face.
'This is going to be one hell of a story' Grace thought, encouraging him to tell her what happened. And told Jake did.

Kagome sighed as she leaned against the tree, she couldn't sleep. Jake was probably back at the base now, while she was stuck here alone. It wasn't like she didn't like the Na'vi, she was just uncomfortable.
She didn't know how to act, and she sure didn't know what she was meant to do.
Looking up into the sky she couldn't help but feel lost. She came here to learn, nothing more. She didn't want any part of fighting. Kagome had seen enough fighting for more than one lifetime. The other reason she couldn't sleep, was she was worried.
She was worried about the Viperwolves. She knew some of them had been injured in the fight, and she wanted to go and see if they were alright or not. Kagome didn't know if she wanted to wander out in the jungle alone, though. She knew no one would come with her though.
Giving another sigh, she made up her mind. She was going to go see if they were alright. She was somehow connected to them, like they were family or something along the lines of that. It was driving her crazy not knowing if they were alright or not.
Walking quietly Kagome made her way through out of the home tree, and into the wilderness. She was going to go there and back as fast as she could. She didn't know how the Na'vi's would react to her leaving at this time of night. She knew none of them, but Mo'at trusted her. At least somewhat.
As she was about to venture deeper into the forest she heard a voice yell out.
"Halt!"
Kagome whipped around to see, the Na'vi that was in the group that brought her and Jake her, Tsu'tey she believed his name was. Giving him a curious look she stood where she was till he stood near her.
"Where do you think your going?" He hissed, eyes narrowed, and voice filled with distrust. He really didn't like her, it seemed.
Frowning Kagome answered, "I am going to the Viperwolves...I want to know if they were uninjured in the fight with Jake before Neytiri saved him." She said this in an even voice, not letting him scare her in any way.
"I don't trust you out here alone." Tsu'tey growled, switching his speech as he took a step towards her. He didn't trust sky people.
"You can come with me or let me go" Kagome snipped out, not wanting to be around this particular Na'vi any longer than she had too. He was starting to piss her off. She turned around and started to make her way into the forest again.
"I think not" Tsu'tey ground out, grabbing her by the arm. He was going to take her back to Home-tree, and nothing else.
Before he could pull her back, he was on his back with an angry looking Viperwolf on him. He hadn't been paying attention to his surroundings during his talk with the 'alien'.
The viperwolf snarled at him, still on his chest, ready to take a bite out of him when Kagome's voice range out stopping all movement.
