A/N: Hi, so this is my first fanfic. I am trying to work on improving my personal writing and what better way than writing a story. I only started getting into avatar a few months ago and read quite of few other fanfics and figured I'd throw my attempt out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and any comments, even hate mail, would be appreciated (as long as there is some reasoning behind it). I am extremely found of the relationship between Neytiri and Jake as well as the turmoil inside of jakes mind. If I get enough intrigue from readers I may be posting multiple chapters a week. Thanks for reading and enjoy
Summary: this story will start with Jakes venture through the Eye of Eywa and provide some of my personal thoughts on scenes from the movie. These will mainly be from an observers stand point (Eywa) but will contain some POV scenes as well.
Italics like this will indicate people speaking in Na'vi for the time being until I grow confident enouh to use real words
(words in parenthesis are generally emotions)
Bolded words are scene breaks or change in perspective as indicated
Disclaimer: I don't own avatar. I make no profit from writing this.
Jake's POV
As I lay down preparing to leave my old world behind I looked out into the crowd around me. I see people whom I have come to respect and love not only for their innocence, but for their strength. They watched as their home burned, and yet they are still willing to accept me as one of them. It makes me want to break down and cry, I no longer questioned my decision to help these people, they did not deserve the fate that was given to them. I will continue to help them until my death this I swear to myself.
As I continue to look around I see one face that stands out from all all the rest, my mate, Neytiri standing over me. Her face is filled with love and compassion but most of all fear, I want to reach out and comfort her but I feel myself slowing slipping away. As my vision begins to blur she is the last thing I see.
Eye Of Eywa
As Jakes soul slowly finds its way from his human body a bright light shines before him. His mind runs wild trying to comprehend what he is seeing when a voice starts speaking to him, "Come my child, I have much to show you."
Jake blurts out "Eywa!"
The voice simply starts to chuckle "Yes my child, now come I have many things which I need to show you before I can return you to your body."
Still in shock watches as the bright light shifts before him becoming a clearer image of a forest, but it is not any forest from Pandora. Slowly as the image becomes clearer Jake realizes that he is looking over the forests, what remains of them, of Venezuela. The voice returns saying "You were a strong man with courage and conviction. This where I first found you my child, you were praying that you and your men would make it out alive."
Jake watches as Eywa shows him the helicopter ride he took into the warzone. He could feel everything that was happening as if he were there again. He watched as Eywa showed him his helicopter being hit by a missile which threw him out of the cargo hold. The pain he had felt as his body hit the ground reverberated through him causing him to wince as he watched himself hit the ground.
Eywa continued on "You were in so much pain and yet you got up and not worrying about your own safety but rather went to find any of your friends that had been hurt." Slowly the images continued to pass by Jake's eyes as he watched himself stand bloodied, but still determined to help his men. He slowly trudged through the underbrush towards the crash site hoping to find some of hi men still alive. He remembered the smell of burning fuel and flesh as what was left of the ones who did not get out slowly burned. He looked around spotting two of his men huddled in corner breathing heavily. As jake ran towards them to get them ready to move it happened, a lone sniper had spotted him and took a shot that would change his life.
The images turned back to the original bright light as Jake started to grow upset at having to relive this moment causing him to yell out "why are your forcing me to watch these? Why must I relive these bad memories?"
The voice simply replied "So you may learn."
Jake then asks "How were you able to see these things? Humans have no connection to you like the Na'vi yet you tell me that you watched me." There was once again a small laugh form the voice "Even humans are my children, they are, Grace would say, an experiment gone wrong. I wished to make people that could live without being directly connected to me, to give them more freedom to learn from the world themselves. At first humans were good they related the world I provided them with respect and compassion. I watched as they started to fight each other and it made my heart grieve, but I could not bring myself to simply destroy them. I had hoped they would come to their sense I tried to intervene through those who were very aware of the world around them. People like Moses, Jesus and Muhammad were all my messengers but even they could not bring humanity back to me. They slipped away and I was only able to watch as they destroyed the gifts I had provide them. They stopped coming to me in prayer and started to follow only that which they could see in front of them not truly understanding the world they lived in. They believed in science over me. I did not know they would begin to threaten my other creations. You see Jake Na'vi are not the only biengs I created they are just more easily able to communicate with me."
Jake simply stayed quiet then contemplating what had been told to him before the light once again began to change.
A/N: is only my first chapter if you guys like me to continue with Eywas visions and explanations ill continue with or ill just skip to jakes awakening. Anyways please Review!
