A New Awakening

By: Na'viWalker

Prologue: Year: 2159 - 5 Years after the RDA has left Pandora.

(POV of Sara - Avatar Driver)

"I cant believe its been 5 years already, we have learned so much, and yet are various discoveries and research may never be put to good use."

Sara scribbled in her journal, she turned to look out the window of the former Hells Gate tower. It was slowly being overrun by the forest, vines were starting to grow on the buildings, grass was slowing appearing on the air strip where gunship once rested, it was as if the scars that were once there were being healed. Sara continued to stare out the window as if hoping to see something, but the only thing blocking her vision was the rain that was falling. She turned back to her journal and continued writing.

"Its been 5 years since we sent the rest of the RDA back to earth, 5 years since Jake became leader of the Na'vi, 5 years since I have seen my family at home. I wonder each day what they will think when they hear that I decided to stay behind, possibly never to return home."

She felt a dripping on her shoulder and looked up, the ceiling was leaking again.

"This building is slowly falling apart" Sara wrote as she glared at the leaking ceiling, "but thanks to Jake, he has convinced the rest of the clan to allowed us to move our research and equipment to a new location, closer to them, allowing us to learn more about them and their world. Until now, we have had limited contact with them, they still don't fully trust us. There are only a few of the other Avatar drivers who are actually allowed to interact with the clan, even now, after all that has happened. Jake has been a powerful ally, he has already done so much for them." Chewing on her pen cap, she continued.

"After the RDA left, Jake led a party to search for a new home. They wanted to stay close to the Tree of Souls. Finding a suitable home for such a large clan took almost a year, but home was found just a few miles away. It was big enough for the entire clan, and there was room for the clan to grow as well. I have yet to see it for myself, but from what the other drivers have said about it, it sounds like its 3 times the size of the original Home Tree. The clan has moved into their new home since then, they seem very happy."

"As far as the Avatar Program is concerned, we are still pushing on improving this technology. We, myself included, have found that we still have the ability to make Avatars here, even on Pandora. Unfortunately we still lack a way to speed up the growth process. If a driver would want an Avatar, they would need to provide a DNA sample at the moment of birth, in order for the Avatar to be at a mature enough age to be able to sustain a link with their driver. Im still working around the clock on speeding up the growth process, I feel that we are very close to a break through. Some of our initial tests have been promising."

Leaning back on her chair she yelled,

"Hey Tracy! When do we move?!"

"I think we start moving the major stuff tomorrow!" she responded from the link room.

Sara sighed as she scribbled down her final thoughts,

"Well tomorrow we start moving. Its going to be an interesting few months. Thats all for now"
