woot three times in one day! I have no life!
anyways Disclaimer: i own nothing not Avatar, not even the story Nightmare tells.
The next day when I woke up Norman was waiting by the door way thing talking to Storm in Na'vi. When I stood up popping my back and yawning he looked over at me and asked how I was doing.
"I'm ok I've had worse. What the-!"
Storm had yawned and she had fangs! I pulled her over and thoroughly looked at her. She was about the average height for a Na'vi her age and her ears were starting to point. Her skin was also going the same shade of brown her hair was with her skin tone as the stripes.
"How are you feeling kiddo does anything hurt?" I questioned urgently.
"No I feel fine kinda itchy though" was her reply.
Thinking about it most of the painful changes had already happened to her and Sunlight. Height was a painful one especially when you're supposed to be done growing, the bones change as well too. And having your organs change and move around is probably why most died. So now the only things that remain are the physical appearance such as skin, nose, eyes, and ears. Dang scientists are getting smart.
Picking up Sunlight, who was pulling on Fear's ear at the moment. I looked him over as well. His skin was going a yellow color with a tinge of pink with white stripes from his natural skin color.
"He's going to hate that pink when he's older" I thought. But at the moment it adds to his cute-ness. I wonder what was causing this… Maybe their collar's suppressants are running low.
"So what's up Norm? why are you here?" I inquired.
"I came by to start off you're Na'vi Lessons" he said happily.
"Oh joy…"
"I brought food"
"You can stay."
Yeah I know I'm easily bought but hey whatever. The less time I have to be around the Omatikaya the better. At least until they get used to me. So we went over basic words and phrases while I stuffed my self with food until noon-ish. That's when Jacob came by and said it was time for me to learn how to ride a direhorse. It was easy enough I had learned to ride bareback on a Horse before so aside from getting used to the neural link I was golden. So since it didn't take long to figure out I could ride, we went on an endurance/body trust run.
This meant running, jumping, free falling, swinging, and more free falling from about 2 miles in the air on tree branches. Hey! Did I ever tell you I was afraid of heights? Well I am so this was by far my least favorite thing I could do in a life time. It went something like this.
*Scene* Clinging to the large branch I was on with Jacob about 100 feet below me.
"Just Jump! It's Fun!!!"
"Ha ha ha ha oh Hell NO! I'm staying right here!"
"Get down here you wimp!"
"No I think I'll stay here you can go on with out me!"
"If you make me climb up there I will throw you off the tree!"
"What are you Catman now?! Where's your leather suit and claws!"
*Jacob climbing the tree* "Yeah you wish! You know I'd look sexy!"
"OI vous êtes seulement sexy à dames âgées et aux types gais!"
"What?!"
"I win!"
*End Scene*
Yeah so that's basically how it went till he got up to my branch and threw me into the tree below us. And I've come to the conclusion I am more wolf then cat cuz I did not land on my feet.
So after we were done we had actually gone pretty far and had made a game out of it. Basically whoever pushes the other person out of the tree the most wins. I won just so you know. When we got to home tree it was like 3:00 ish and I was tired. But no I couldn't have a 5 minute break because I just had to learn how to hunt with a bow an' arrow and use a knife.
Tsu'tey is going on and on and on about how to hold and use a bow like it's a complex computer. 'First: you must hold the bow with a firm grip blah blah blah. Second you must place the grove on the arrow blah blah blah. And third blah blah blah.' I got so sick of it I just shot the stupid thing in the middle of his lecture. And I got a bull's eye. Happily I did a victory dance; I could always out shoot the guys. Thank you dad!
"Well I guess we're done here bye bye!" I said walking away when he grabbed the back of the wrap, tube top like thing, I had on.
"You're not done yet."
"Dang it!"
Tsu'tey made me hunt and say the Na'vi prayers cuz my human ones weren't good enough. Then he taught me how to skin the soon to be meal so that we get the most amount of meat with as little damage to the skin as possible so that I could make cloths for myself later. We finished by the time the tribes dinner was ready.
I was so tired I just wanted to go to my hollow and sleep till forever. But noooooo Jacob Sully decided I need to start interacting with the tribe. That stupid butt! Some one should smack him! Jacob had me sit almost alone and toward the center of the group. But luckily Norman didn't know I was supposed to be social with the other and sat by me and handed me some fruit.
"Thanks"
"No problem though I had expected you to go to the tree cave"
"I would have but Jacob is being a butt and making me sit here."
"Well it will help them accept you quicker… why do you call him Jacob why not just Jake?"
"Meh whatever. I call him Jacob cuz I used to know another guy named Jake who was way cooler then your Jake. He could actually come up with a comeback when I spoke French. Damn I miss him."
"What happened to him?"
"Don't know I think he and his brothers joined the marines. So he's probably dead."
He was about to say something when Mo'at stepped into the center of the circle and lead us in a prayer to Eywa.
"Let us give thanks to our Mother who so gracefully gave us this meal. Thank you Eywa."
Crossing myself after my own prayer I dug into the food. Being stuck with drill sergeants for teachers is tiring and hungry work.
The meal was good. It probably would have been better if people wouldn't step on my tail! I swear I held that thing everywhere and they still stepped on it and the same person would do it multiple times too! Once ok fine I did move it a bit. Twice, ok you might have lost your balance and had to step really close to meh bum. But three times if you do it one more time I'm going to use my tail the next time you step on it to trip you. Fourth time Timber!!!!
The guy, I think Norman called him Ku'li, glared at me from his place on the ground and I glared back but added a growl to the mix. He was about to retaliate when Mo'at came up to us and asked me to share a story with the tribe since I was new. So because I like Mo'at I walked toward where she had stood earlier and sat down on the little platform thing crossed legged. She explained that I would be telling the story tonight and went to sit with her daughter leaving me all by my lonesome.
I couldn't think of a story to tell them but I remembered one I loved as a child. Sitting comfortable I began the story in a slow rhythmic fashion that my father used to tell stories in.
"In the beginning Great Grandfather Spirit had just finished creating the Earth and all the animals, and he felt pleased with his creations. After some time the animals started fighting each other over which of them will be the leader of all the other animals.
"Coyote who was not into fighting asked Grandfather Spirit to make a man and a women to rule over all the animals of the Earth. Grandfather Spirit loved the idea and went to work on the man and woman right away. But he was having was having a hard time coming up with an image to make man and woman in. Coyote after some time came to him to see how the creations were coming. When he saw Grandfather Spirit having trouble with man and woman, Coyote with all his magic turned himself into a man. When the creator saw this, he thanked Coyote and went to work the man in the image Coyote had showed him.
"Once he created man out of the Earth he then blew life into him and he came to life. Grandfather Spirit told man the he will make man a mate. Grandfather Spirit started making an image that looked exactly like the man.
"Coyote then said "no, no, no, Grandfather, Man won't find a woman who looks like this attractive. Here is how a woman should look like."
"Then Coyote again transformed himself into an image of a woman. Grandfather Spirit studied this image and went to work on creating woman out of the Earth. When he was done the woman looked just like the image of the woman that Coyote showed the Creator.
"Grandfather Spirit then blew life into the woman and Creator said this was good. The Creator told Man and Woman that they are now the new leaders of the land and to treat the Earth and all who dwell on it like family because they all come from Mother Earth. Grandfather Spirit thanked Coyote for his help and to show his thanks he gave Coyote more magical powers than any other animal.
"Navajo Man and Woman never forgot what Grandfather Spirit said and still they treat the Earth as kin though others have forgotten and laid waste to our mother."
