• Book 1 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series. Hiraya te Salem Ka'art'ite, the last of the nomadic Terapatxi, has chosen the shadows. A survivor of the RDA's cruelest experiments, the fifteen-year-old Hiraya knows a bitter truth: in a world at war, her mutated blood is not a gift - it is a prize to be exploited by humans and Na'vi alike. ​Her carefully guarded solitude is shattered when a stranger stumbles into her sanctuary. He doesn't come with shackles or syringes; he comes with a gentle smile and a name that carries the weight of a legend. ​"I am Neteyam te Suli Tsyeyk'itan. Son of Toruk Makto. It's nice to meet you, Hiraya." ○●○●○●○ This Avatar - Neteyam AU fanfic: • is canon-compliant (save for the author's own interpretation of incomplete souls and Spirit World rules). • is written in switching 3rd person POVs for better storytelling. • adheres to sci-fi laws and logical emotional development. • is literally made to counter Neteyam's canonical death in ATWOW. • is made by an author who loves pictures (so please do read online for the full experience ♡). ○●○●○●○ Sample passage from this book: ​"Listen to me," Neteyam said, his focus narrowing entirely on her, his brows furrowed with genuine concern. He shifted, his hand moving to cover hers where it rested, white-knuckled and trembling against her thigh. Her skin felt fever-hot against his palm, a sharp contrast to the cooling spray of the sea. ​"Focus on this," he told her, keeping his voice low and steady to cut through the sound of the surf. He needed her to stop staring at the horizon with those dead eyes. "Feel the weight of my hand. The salt on your skin. You are here, Hiraya. Right now. You're with me, and we're above the surface. Stay in the light."

Under the protection of the Sully family and the steady hand of Neteyam, the fifteen-year-old sole survivor of the Terapatxi is learning to breathe again. But peace is a fragile thing for a ghost. ​When a ruthless shadow from her past appears on the horizon, Hiraya must stand her ground against a recurring nightmare and uphold her pride as a Terapatxi warrior. For the sake of an outcast friend, she must also choose whether to hide herself back into the shadows or to fight for what she believes is right - even if it means standing alone against the tide. In a journey of a deeper exploration into her identity, culture, a trauma with a past tormentor, and her relationship with the golden son of Toruk Makto, will the love between her and Neteyam prevail? Or will it be snuffed out by the unrelenting challenges for survival?

When these brothers: two halves of the same bad penny finally find their way back to one another will they be able turn their luck, and forty years of bad-blood and even worse misunderstandings around? If the universe is to survive, they're going to have to.

How many deaths must a soul endure before it becomes whole? A Life by a Thousand Death is a confession made out loud. Not to be forgiven. Not to be saved. To be witnessed. It moves the way memory moves when it is honest, recursive, unfinished, and allergic to clean timelines. What I call the past is not behind me. It is in my throat. It is in my sleep. It is in the way my body prepares for loss before anything has happened. I was called a miracle before I was old enough to understand what that word demands. Later, I was treated like a burden, as if the miracle had expired and only the cost remained. My family did not pass down stories. It passed down rules. Some were spoken. Most were enforced through silence. A person learns quickly what cannot be named without consequences. A person learns to live with gaps, and to call them normal. Each chapter is a record of what had to be cut away to keep going. A belief. A name. A future. Sometimes innocence. Sometimes tenderness. Sometimes it's the simple ability to ask for what I needed without feeling guilty for having needs at all. These are deaths of the soul. Some are quiet enough to hide inside a regular day. Some are loud enough to rearrange the whole house. If you are looking for redemption, you will not find it here. This is not a story about healing. It is a ritual for the in-between. For the ones who kept living when living stopped feeling holy. For the ones who learned that survival is not always a victory, sometimes it is just a continuation. What survives is not hope. Not the kind people sell. What survives is the body still moving. Jaw locked. Lungs dragging air. Steps taken without consent. A life carried forward on discipline, stubbornness, and the strange refusal to disappear. Unholy. Unforgiven. Alive.

After the war, Draco finds the time to sit back and think things over. For the first time in his life, he realised that maybe his father isn't the idol he once thought he was. He needed an escape, and he finally found it. He spent hours of his day staring into the Mirror of Erised, contemplating what could have been, but the odd mirror was then taken from him by an unlikely saviour. But even without the device, he often finds himself zoning out and thinking of what he saw, of WHO he saw, of what their past could've been and what their future may hold... Suffering from survivors guilt and PTSD, the boy feels like no-one could understand him. Who would have any sympathy for a death eater, afterall? None other than Harry James Potter, that's who. But is it really so unexpected afterall? _____________________ Please note that I have no experience of survivors guilt, PTSD, ect.
