Chapter 5: "Things are starting to look up for me..."
Tina's POV
Four months later
"TINA!" came a female shout from outside my room.
I groaned and rose out of my bed, rubbing my eyes whilst walking to the sliding door.
I tapped my private code into the keypad next to it and the metal slid into the wall allowing me to see my mom looking at me impatiently.
"Finally. Quickly pack up your things and follow me, we're moving out" she told me and looked behind her shoulder to moan at two people moving science equipment roughly before turning back to my shocked expression.
"MOVE! WHERE!" I screamed. My eyes literally popping out of my head.
She laughed and ruffled my bed hair as she walked past me into the room.
"Don't freak out kiddo, you're going to love the place" she told me as she grabbed the cases I had arrived with from under my bed.
I looked at her in confusion and asked "Where is this place mom! Tell me!."
She looked at me and smiled as she placed some of my shirts into one of the cases.
"Just trust me Tina. You'll like it" she repeated and continued to pack my things.
I glared at her for a few seconds before walking over to my bed and helping her pack the rest of my things.
As we made our way to the hanger, we met up with Jake and Norm.
Norm began conversing with my mom whilst Jake and I were left in awkward silence.
I had been four months since he had been allowed into Hometree and I was just as jealous and angry with him as Norm was, perhaps even more so. I mean, why should he get to join them when I had been here longer and I had been considered part of the big family. Jake had been here for only four months and already had been accepted as part of the family and what was worse was the fact that, apparently, Neytiri was supposed to teach him the ways of the Omaticaya.
What a joke!
I was knocked out of my angry thoughts when Jake stated to talk to me.
"So, ya lookin' forward to today?" he began awkwardly.
I looked down at him then back at the others before answering him. "Not really seeing as I don't know where I'm being taken."
I heard him laugh from beside me making me look at him with a confused look. "What?" I asked him in an annoyed tone.
He looked up at me and smiled. "Your mom said we were moving camp into the Hallelujah Mountains. Said she didn't want Quaritch or Selfridge peeking in anymore."
My heart stopped beating and I looked towards the gunship with excitement and eagerness.
Without saying goodbye I raced towards it and placed myself in the co-pilots seat and belted up earning the looks of the others who all had smiles on their faces.
They knew that I knew where we were going.
Grace looked back over to Norm and grinned as Jake wheeled over to them.
"Well, better not keep the girl waiting."
