Earth
Third POV
If one was to watch this seen they would be awed by sheer psionic power being demonstrated four Avatars were hunting another rouge Avatar that some how has developed with a conciousness of his own, one who did not wish to be controled. Nedless to say, when beings with psionic powers such as theirs go at it well things are not left intact. And so another wall was destroyed as the rouge Avatar teleported away from another null lance just in time via instinct, only to have to be hit by soul fire, but he had a plan, he was building his psionic power. The only problem was the others could feel it and they would sooner kill him then let him and the avatar he was holding escape or do what ever it was he was planing.
"Submit!" The voices of the ethereal echoed across the minds of all those present, demanding compliance. The rouge avatar, or Echo as he calls him self, refused and so the battle resumed. The sound of metalic walls and the ground being torn apart could be heard through out the facility. You would see five Avatars all repeatedely teleporting around the facility, four of them fiering psionic rifts and null lances at the rouge who would alway teleport away and never fire back. Eventualy it came to an end as they left the facility and wound up by cliff by the sea.
"Submit, you have no where to go now" The voices echoed once more. As this was said the four Avatars all charged null lances ready to finish off Echo and the Avatar he held but he remained stoic behind his mask. While they have been fiering null lances at him for a good half hour he has been building his psionic power for some thing special, a rift. Opening a rift on his own was nigh suicidal but it was better than staying here and becoming a puppet, he liked his freedom and so it was his only viable solution. Echo simply steped of the cliff to fall into a psionic rift that had opened up down by the water. Quickly the four Avatars ran to the edge and saw him go through the rift. The ethereals glanced at at each other and decided that the chances of the rouges survival were slim at best if it even ended up on earth. Their Avatars turned and all teleported away leaving the cliff side barren and the landscape beside it a battle scared waste land ablaze.
Pandora
Five years before the movie.
It was an unusualy silent night in the forests of Pandora and the Naiv'i where on edge. Why? Because the normaly hunter of the night were not out and about, no they where silent and watching from the shadows, waiting, in fact it seems like all the animals in the forest knew some thing was about to happe, Eywa knew some thing was about to happen. Some thing that would change the fate of Pandora. They did not have to to wait long becasue above the tree of souls a something spectacular began to happen. It started as light show, almost like the northern lights, only in shades of deep purple and then throuhg out the forest all the way to home tree the whispers of many voices could be heard, muttering in some thing no one but maybe Eywa could understand. This light show could be seen all the way from home tree. Only mere seconds later did it stop along with the whispers.
On the ground of the tree of souls lay the unmoving and tired body of echo and his fellow Avatar. Slowly but surely the trees tendrils on the ground creeped over both their bodies and connected his mind to Eywa. Eywa knew something was comming to her world, but not what, or who and now she would find out. And so she probed the mind of this young Avatar and was shocked to find out just how young this mind was. It was the mind of a child, stuck inside a body with a prodigal amount of power and the instincts of a soldier. Most importantely though the mind was scared and alone It was only a few hours old before it's life was threatened, by it's creators no less and it had only just escaped. What shocked her even more was the other body. The female Avatar. It was dead, not physically, but it lacked a soul as if it were never born. Eywa then tenderly carresed the childs mind and soothed it much like a mother would and that's what Eywa decided she would be. She would become this creatures mother, and with it's psionic potential realized it would be able to hear her and see her. This Echo would be her child.
